Chapter 13: Just Because It’s Sophisticated Doesn’t Mean No One Understands It

2 PM.

The homepage recommendation on the Haixian Live platform officially began.

Su Yu’s live stream room appeared directly on the homepage of both the app and the website.

Thanks to the cover image from Su Yu’s live stream screenshot, as soon as it hit the homepage, a large number of viewers flooded into the live stream room.

The relevant traffic data was a notch higher compared to other recommended live stream rooms in the same period.

Haixian Daodao had anticipated this. After all, when he first saw this streamer named Buyao, he too was stunned.

However, it wasn’t time for him to be happy yet. Good looks were a great advantage, but in the live streaming industry, what was important was being able to retain viewers.

If the content of the live stream was no good, it didn’t matter how good-looking the streamer was. Content was still the most important thing.

[Ding, Popularity Value +1.]

[Ding, Popularity Value +1.]

On Su Yu’s side, she reaped another wave of Popularity Value, and the live stream room quickly became lively.

[The streamer is so beautiful, followed.]

[Is the quality of new streamers this high now?]

[Streamer, stop sitting, let’s dance.]

With more people came more trouble, and naturally, some less harmonious people appeared.

Lianzi Ge: “For classical dance, I only watch Sister Luo. I don’t think this new streamer is any good.”

“I’ve seen Luo Xiaofeng too, she really dances well, especially her signature piece, ‘Guanshan Jiu’.”

“But I don’t think Luo Xiaofeng is as good-looking as this streamer.”

Lianzi Ge: “Don’t talk nonsense in the comments above. My Sister Feng is the best in the world. Who knows how much beauty filter this new streamer is using?”

Lianzi Ge: “Besides, for streamers in the dance section, what matters is technique.”

Lianzi Ge: “If you have the guts, let this streamer dance ‘Guanshan Jiu’ too, and let’s see which streamer dances better!”

As more people entered Su Yu’s live stream room, some began to stir up drama involving other streamers.

In a dim rental apartment.

A man picking his feet was staring infatuatedly at a recording of Luo Xiaofeng’s ancient-style dance on his computer.

He was the “Lianzi Ge” who was stirring up trouble in Su Yu’s live stream room.

As the head of female streamer Luo Xiaofeng’s fan club and a manager of the fan group, Lianzi Ge naturally hoped that the streamer he liked would become better and more popular.

On this Haixian Live platform, Lianzi Ge only liked this female streamer who danced in the ancient style.

He just liked the charm and form of dances from the classical imperial era.

But today, he saw an extremely beautiful female streamer…

It was no big deal at first, but this female streamer’s live stream room name indicated that she was also a classical dance streamer.

You have to know, on the Haixian platform, Luo Xiaofeng had the fans of basically most ancient-style dance enthusiasts.

Now, a strong competitor had appeared.

This made Lianzi Ge feel a hint of threat for Luo Xiaofeng.

So, Lianzi Ge wanted to do something for the streamer he was a fan of.

He opened Luo Xiaofeng’s fan group.

Lianzi Ge: @everyone, another new ancient-style dance streamer has appeared. Brothers, come and check her out.

XXX: “Is Lianzi Ge going to flame another new streamer until she quits in despair again?”

XXX: “Interesting, I want to see the female streamer’s breakdown.”

XXX: “Let’s go, let’s go, let’s raid that female streamer.”

XXX: “Sister Luo isn’t streaming until tonight, so we can go watch some drama.”

Lianzi Ge’s actions, pulling people from the fan group to Su Yu’s live stream room, were naturally not to help Su Yu gain popularity, but to get people to stir up trouble in Su Yu’s live stream room.

The best outcome would be for casual viewers to also fully understand that Luo Xiaofeng was the number one sister of ancient-style dance streaming.

On Su Yu’s side, she paid no attention to the bullet comments stirring up trouble.

Her most important task now was to prepare for the first dance of this lifetime.

She didn’t care about other things.

Now that she was free from the shackles of her management company’s contract, she just wanted to dance her own dance, that was all…

For everything else, let her strength do the talking!

The art forms of the Divine Land Region in this world were quite similar to those of Huaxia in her previous life.

Therefore, Su Yu only needed to make slight modifications to perform the dances she had practiced for many years in her past life.

As for the dance music, she had already prepared it…

The title of the piece was “King Xuanyuan’s Charge into Battle.”

The composer was a folk music master of this world, Xu Hongguang, who had adapted it based on a lone chapter from an ancient text, preserving the essence of the ancient famous piece while integrating modern musical styles.

The style and form of this piece were quite similar to “Prince of Lanling’s Charge into Battle” from Su Yu’s previous life.

The piece “King Xuanyuan’s Charge into Battle” described the story of how, when the northern fortress city of Yubei was besieged by foreign tribes and the Great Wall was in imminent danger, King Xuanyuan led 800 cavalry on a thousand-li ride to reinforce and defend Yubei, coordinating with the defending army to crush the foreign army and foil their ambitions of invading the central plains.

In Su Yu’s past life, because she was a boy, she naturally practiced more of these powerful and sonorous dance pieces. However, this dance piece also had soft and gentle parts, which were suitable for her now that she had become a girl.

Everything was ready.

Su Yu took a deep breath, and then played “King Xuanyuan’s Charge into Battle” in the live stream room.

When the melodious prelude of bianzhong and large drums sounded, it was as if the scene before them had returned to the tumultuous Warring States period.

Su Yu stood in front of the camera, her body leaning slightly forward, her hands raised, her long sleeves covering half her face. At the same time, her expression was enchanting.

She was preparing for the first section of “King Xuanyuan’s Charge into Battle”…

That is, when the city of Yubei was besieged by foreign tribes, and the soldiers and civilians in the city swore to fight to the death rather than surrender, while the gentry of Jiangnan were still holding a courtesan beauty pageant on the pleasure streets.

Su Yu, the first character she was going to portray, was the courtesan dancer in Yangzhou City.

It was more like she was performing a one-woman musical than just dancing a single dance.

But she was confident that she could portray all the characters in “King Xuanyuan’s Charge into Battle” with her dance, because she was now a martial artist, and her strength and speed had greatly improved.

Moves that were originally prone to error had now become very easy.

When the melody of “King Xuanyuan’s Charge into Battle” sounded in the live stream room, the reactions of the crowd were varied.

“What song is this? I’ve never heard it. It feels so desolate, I don’t like it much.”

“I’ve heard many ancient-style songs, but I’ve never heard this one. It’s too niche.”

“The streamer is too cunning, picking a song that no one has heard of so there’s no comparison. If you have the guts, dance a piece that Sister Luo has danced.”

However, not everyone in the live stream room was ignorant. Some pointed out the origin of this piece.

“This piece seems to be called ‘King Xuanyuan’s Charge into Battle.’ It has been on the Spring Festival Gala in the three kingdoms of Zhaoge, Chixiao, and Lindong.”

“So what if it’s been on the Spring Festival Gala? It’s still not popular.”

“Can the streamer dance this kind of piece well? I heard only professional dancers can dance it.”

“It must be just a gimmick. In reality, it’s still just those few regular dance moves.”

On the other side.

When Qin Xiao heard the prelude to “King Xuanyuan’s Charge into Battle,” he instantly sat up.

This piece…

Was a piece his father had listened to countless times, and it was also the story of his ancestors.
