Chapter 204: Captain
Who would have expected that when Qin An entered S Class for the first ti, the ntors would quickly appoint him as a leader? That was totally unpredictable and surprised everyone.
So trainees couldn’t help but think that this is such a great opportunity for the young man. Not only was appointed to enter the S Class but also beca the Captain. This... isn’t it a bit of favoritism?
They had long noticed that the ntors would sotis talk to him privately. Although they didn’t know what their conversation was about, just seeing them paying too much attention to the young man made them subconsciously think that Qin An was too favored by them.
But who is he? Is his identity higher than He Yan or Shen Lou themselves?
"For the other two captains, the ntors appointed Han Baiwei and Gu Yijin." Jiang Su announced and only when everyone noticed that the three beca Captains for the first ti. It seems that the ntors didn’t appoint Qin An as an intentional act, right? This thought made them sigh in relief. It seems that they are just thinking too much.
"Now, we will also announce the new round in this competition. For this round, we will divide you into three groups with each team captain, Qin An, Han Baiwei, and Gu Yijin."
Virtual nas of the three Captains floated in front of the stage. "Captains, please go in front of your designated nas."
After they were placed, Jiang Su continued to explain. "For the rest of the trainees, I will give you a choice to pick your own captain. C Class, please go to your chosen team."
As soon as this was announced, the trainees on Class C quickly went to the three in front. Most of the trainees relatively chose Han Baiwei and Gu Yijin because they had seen their performances and they were able to exert stable abilities on stage. It’s not that they doubt Qin An but having also known his personality, he was the type of leader that maybe won’t listen to him. Han Baiwei is more jolly while Gu Yijin is extrely silent but looked more approachable than the intimidating Qin An.
There are still trainees who chose Qin An thought but only a few than others. As for why, it was unknown.
"Next, Class B." The situation was still the sa as earlier but other trainees such as Qin An and Shen Lou’s mbers from the first round decided to choose Qin An. They are relatively the people who had already cooperated with Qin An and sohow knew his personality. Cold but it’s not what everyone thought so they are willing to be under him. Besides... They secretly looked at the mbers of S Class and knew that there will definitely be people who’ll co to him.
And they were right. Because right after the Class A finished and their Class S was announced to choose, Shen Lou, He Yan, and Han Suwen didn’t hesitate but went to the young man.
It’s just that what happened next stunned everyone.
Because the remaining S Class mbers Lu Nanxiao and Nan Moyi actually followed them to line up on Qin An’s group!
"!!!" The trainees gasped in shock and disbelief. This.. five mbers of S Class were actually in the sa group, isn’t this a bit too much?!
The trainees who didn’t choose Qin An’s team felt a bit restless when they realized the danger of their situation. The strongest components were tead together, will this even put them in a dangerous situation?!
And to add to their anxiety, Jiang Su began explaining the new rules of the round competition.
"In this round, there will be no global voting but only the evaluation of these ntors again. As a group and individual, they will evaluate your performances again."
"!!!"
"Fuck! this is bullying us!" So trainees couldn’t help but cuss in a low voice. Based on group performance? Then what about the mbers of Qin An’s team who’s full of monsters on stage?! This is clearly telling them how low the possibility of their win is! So of them turned pale and expressed deep regrets but knew that they couldn’t do anything anymore because they already picked their Captain.
"Next, I will explain the the of this round. There will be three concepts again that each group has to perform. However, this ti, the song and choreography will be personally made by the group themselves. In short, this round isn’t just about your capabilities to dance, sing and understand the song but to see your creativity in this battle."
Jiang Su motioned the three virtual images in front.
"This will be your the." The nas disappeared and their group’s the was revealed.
Han Baiwei’s group was King. Gu Yijin’s team is about Hunters, while Qin An’s team is Soldiers.
"Each team will be given at least one and a half weeks of preparation before the official performance begins. MVP’s will also be chosen at each team and will be given benefits, so please do your best and impress the ntors... and the audience because your next performance will be held live on stage."
"!!!" Now that rule shocked the trainees. Live?! They looked at each other and saw the disbelief and worry in each other’s eyes. This was even worse! They felt like they were not ready yet! How dangerous it can be to perform on stage. This will not only dampen their confidence but will put their anxiety to the next level!
How can they perform their usual ways and how can they build enough courage in front of the crowd?!
Jiang Su smiled as he looked at everyone’s anxious faces. "Okay. That’s it for today, you can now be dismissed."
*****
Each team went imdiately to their training room to conduct a eting.
"Does anyone here have experience writing songs?" Shen Lou asked. No one imdiately answered him but looked at each other. After a few seconds, a hand tentatively raises his hand. It was Nan Moyi.
"I have experience but I’m not that confident to do it for the group." Nan Moyi honestly said to them.
"But do you want to do it?" Shen Lou asked again.
Nan Moyi hesitated for a mont before nodding. "Then you can try." Shen Lou simply said and looked at the other mbers, especially so in the lower classes. "Is there anymore?"
The trainees shook their heads.
"Okay, then it’s settled. Nan Moyi will write our song." Han Suwen said and looked at the trainees with a smile on his face. "Since no one objected, no one will also make a fuss in the future, right?"
His face was smiling but the cunningness was all over his body and the way he looked at them clearly tells them that if one will make trouble soon, it’ll be over for him.
"...."
Help, the fox is here, can they change their mind and go to another group instead?!
"I also need help. I need to gather your ideas." Nan Moyi said and they turned their heads to look at Qin An, who was just silent on the corner.
"..." For the first ti, Qin An felt it was better to be a mute.
He may have a superior temperant but he was never a leader. He was a lone grim reaper and didn’t even try to mingle with his colleagues, so how is it possible that he can?
Silence envelopes the room and they notice Qin An’s hesitation.
Han Suwen quickly put his arm on the young man’s shoulder and patted him.
"Anan, don’t be nervous." Han Suwen smiled again and didn’t look at the other’s face that changed when they heard him calling Qin An such a nickna.
Anan?! He Yan was in disbelief and looked at Qin An who didn’t even react to that nickna. This... are they really too close now?
He Yan glanced at their close shoulders and pouted. Why does everyone get close to Qin An so easily while he is still not?! Ugh! He hates it!
"That’s right. Qin An, don’t be nervous and let your thoughts out. It’s okay. You are the captain. We listen to you." Lu Nanxiao also interrupted them.
Shen Lou also nodded so Qin An sighed a little.
"If we’re talking about soldiers, I’m sure everyone has their own experience with them. Even if you hadn’t contacted them personally, I think soldiers are soone that is very familiar in this world," Qin An said and when he saw everyone nod and listen carefully, he continued.
"I want to hear everyone’s story about soldiers. What is your perspective on them and who do you think they are? We’ll listen to it and later, we can discuss how to combine all the ideas... is that okay?"
"Sure!" Yan quickly nods with a grin and claps his hands. "Wow! You are aweso, Anan— oops!" When He Yan slipped his tongue and also called that nickna, he quickly covered his mouth using his hands and looked at Qin An nervously, afraid that the young man would show reluctance.
But to this luck, Qin An didn’t also react like how he did to Han Suwen earlier. This fact made his eyes twinkle in anticipation.
He didn’t reject it! He didn’t reject it! He Yan happily thought and if he’s a dog, his tail would now wagging behind him excitedly.
One step closer! I will surely be close to him too! He Yan cheered himself and with a bright energy, he listened to the conversation attentively.
