Chapter 465: Chapter 216: Shen Yuan’s Low Family Status
The next second, a heavy bass note dropped with a ferocious BOOM!
Intense light ripped across the center of the stage!
Deafening, aggressive electronic music surged through every corner of the venue like an electric current!
"WOAH—!!!"
An overwhelming wave of screams erupted without restraint! The entire gymnasium floor seemed to vibrate along with them!
A group of street dance club members in stylish outfits froze under the lights in a high-impact pose!
Their appearance was like a shot of adrenaline, completely igniting the crowd’s pent-up passion!
The powerful drum beats, dazzling lights, and forceful movements were in perfect sync! The timing was so precise it was spine-tingling!
The stylish dance sent wave after wave of excitement through the entire gymnasium.
At its climax, the music came to a sudden halt!
All the dancers struck a final, dramatic pose in unison!
The lights snapped into a sharp focus!
The gymnasium fell into absolute silence for less than half a second before erupting.
"ROAR!!!"
A tsunami of applause, screams, and whistles crashed down, threatening to blow the roof off the gymnasium!
It was endless!
Even the school leaders at the side of the stage couldn’t help but smile and applaud.
A few seconds later, the intense, roaring lights gently faded like the tide, and the gymnasium’s lighting slowly returned to a softer level.
Amidst the continuing applause and cheers, the female host strode to the front of the stage, her quick steps filled with the passion ignited by the performance.
The female host held the microphone, her voice made exceptionally resonant and infectious by the massive wave of sound in the background.
"That was absolutely stunning! A huge thank you to the street dance club for that feast for the eyes and ears! Every single move just now was fire, wasn’t it?!"
As she finished, a new wave of enthusiastic replies and laughter erupted from the audience, the sound so powerful it seemed to physically ripple under the dome.
The host smiled, waiting for the fiery atmosphere ignited by the dancers to settle, leaving a warm, excited afterglow in the air.
Her gaze swept to the side of the stage. The smile on her lips deepened with a hint of mysterious anticipation, and her voice shifted to a softer, more evocative tone.
"The beat of youth is as fiery as a flame, and next, we will welcome a ray of dancing sunshine that will touch our very souls..."
She paused, as if listening for the whispers of speculation and anticipation rising from the audience.
The stage lights quietly shifted, and the wild laser beams retracted.
Timing the change in atmosphere perfectly, the host’s voice cut clearly through the swelling music.
"Please welcome our beloved Teacher Yang Yishui—"
As she spoke, the audience—especially the sections for the third-year Class 15 and Class 14—erupted with surprised screams and shouts even more intense than before, nearly blowing the roof off!
The host smiled and finished the announcement, "—who will be performing the song ’Sunshine’!"
When he heard the song’s title, Shen Yuan raised an eyebrow.
Li Zhi immediately noticed Shen Yuan’s reaction.
"What is it?"
Looking at the beautiful girl beside him, Shen Yuan smiled slightly. "You think it’s going to be a mellow song, don’t you?"
Li Zhi nodded. "Isn’t it?"
Shen Yuan didn’t answer right away. Instead, he glanced back at Ah Jie and Yang Ze before turning back to Li Zhi and saying, "Just wait. You’re about to see this place turn into a rave."
Li Zhi blinked, her curiosity piqued.
At that moment, all eyes were fixed on the spot where the lights converged, waiting for that familiar figure to appear.
A figure slowly emerged from backstage.
The light outlined Eldest Female Cousin’s elegant figure.
Unlike the glamorous outfits she usually wore on stage, her clothes today were remarkably casual.
Her hair and makeup weren’t elaborate; her soft, long hair fell naturally, casually brushing her shoulders as she walked.
Eldest Female Cousin walked with a relaxed gait, one hand casually tucked into a pocket, a languid yet warm smile playing on her lips.
This casual air, so at odds with the boisterous stage, was like a ray of morning sun, instantly calming the feverish atmosphere ignited by the street dance performance.
"Sister Shui!!"
"Sister Shui is here!!"
"AWOOOO!!!"
"Shuibao! Shuibao! Shuibao!!"
"AAAAAH!! SHUIBAO!!"
The immense wave of sound was like a physical shockwave, instantly overpowering all other noise in the venue!
Standing in the center of the lights, Yang Yishui’s eyes clearly found the most dazzling "sea of stars" formed by the students she had personally taught.
The languid smile on Eldest Female Cousin’s lips suddenly widened, transforming into a smile tinged with a little pride.
She faced the sections for Class 15 and Class 14, pulled the hand from her pocket, and waved it vigorously toward the most enthusiastic area!
Her gesture was like a silent command, instantly igniting even greater passion!
"WOAH—!!!"
It was as if everyone in Class 15 and Class 14 had been given a shot of adrenaline. They roared at the top of their lungs, their voices merging into a frenzy that swept the entire gymnasium!
Yang Yishui stood under the spotlight, her smiling gaze sweeping over her students. Only when their feverish cheers reached a crescendo did she contentedly lower her hand and rest it gently on the microphone stand before her.
As the upbeat music began to play, Yang Yishui’s voice filled the gymnasium.
"Running through this strange life."
"Chasing all them green lights."
The upbeat pop-rock rhythm instantly swept the entire venue into a sea of joy.
That joyous rhythm instantly made Li Zhi understand why Shen Yuan had said it would turn into a rave.
The song seemed to have a kind of magic. Its simple rhythm, combined with Yang Yishui’s light and relaxed tone, gave one an irresistible urge to start swaying.
As if the song were injecting them with invisible energy, the area at the back of the gymnasium—mostly filled with boys—began to stir.
It started with slight swaying, but soon, after Ah Jie let out a whoop and threw his arms in the air, the movement spread like wildfire!
As if on cue, Yang Ze, Chen Mingyu, and the others shot to their feet, row after row!
No one cared about the distance between the seats; their bodies naturally started bouncing to the rhythm.
A mass of bobbing figures, arms waving wildly to the powerful melody.
The lighting technician, seemingly infected by this sudden enthusiasm, kept the main spotlights on Yang Yishui while skillfully sweeping a few colored lasers from the periphery across the seething crowd.
The spinning spots of light slid across excited faces with wide, unabashed smiles, flashing over their waving arms and bouncing bodies.
It was as if the lights were crowning this youthful exuberance, guiding the pulse of the revelry to merge completely with the song.
Shen Yuan looked at Li Zhi. The girl was also clearly swaying slightly to Eldest Female Cousin’s rhythm.
Feeling Ah Jie and the others swaying behind him, Shen Yuan asked softly, "Want to stand up?"
Li Zhi froze, whipping her head around to look at Shen Yuan.
The look in her eyes clearly asked, ’What do you think you’re doing?!’
