【Human World】

The roses on both sides of the road have already slept, the street is quiet, there is no shadow of a person, compared to the ghost street of the soul world, there are many more lights here, and there is a little less fear.

Taking advantage of the somewhat cold moonlight, Ye Hanyu transformed into the appearance of Ye Muchen under the moon. He didn't even have to go out of the door, he turned into a black shadow through the window and shuttled back to his room.

It was already early in the morning, he sat down on the couch and leaned his back against it, for this blood devil, he didn't need sleep, there was no light in the room, but he liked this environment. The soul spells in his body seemed to be a little full at this time, he raised his arm, and looked at his hand, which was more seductive than a woman, and on the palm of his hand, faintly appeared, which seemed to be some spiritual spells that he had played with in his palm. Powerful soul spells are also showing their soul level.

The first order of the octave soul position, just because of the slightest trace of soul spirit spell of the "Flame Blood Spirit", he crossed a level, if he found a complete "Flame Blood Spirit", or seven blood spirits or even "Dripping Blood Stamen", I don't know how far his soul rank will be raised. Of course, the further he goes, the more difficult it will be to improve his soul level, which he understands. Otherwise, his father would not have stayed at the seventh rank of the Ten Soul Rank for thousands of years.

Then, he withdrew the little bit of soul spell in his palm, when he was still in the soul realm before, he felt that Chu Menghan used the platinum bracelet he gave her, he thought that she was in some danger, but in an instant, the soul spell was taken back, from which Ye Hanyu deduced that Chu Menghan had solved those troubles, and it might be between them and Liu Ruiqi.

However, Han Yu also felt a little relieved. After optimizing Chu Menghan's appearance before, Ye Hanyu didn't know if he was doing it correctly, you must know that it is easy to make a person good-looking, but it is relatively troublesome to change her temperament. Fortunately, Chu Menghan did not disappoint herself, whether it was from dancing with her before, or from the perspective of her cooking skills with Liu Ruiqi, she can now deal with some problems independently, including the upcoming piano competition, which is also unexpected by him, Chu Menghan will take the initiative to challenge Liu Ruiqi, from this point of view, she is no longer like before, she will only avoid the girl who will not dare to face anything when she encounters something, and now she can be said to be a person who breaks the cocoon and transforms into a butterfly in the real sense.

Thinking of this, he couldn't help but snort from his nose, and he didn't know what kind of charm that girl was, if he didn't see that she could sense the blood spirit, in addition to the blood in her body, what attracted him to make him so interested in her.

The night was pulled down little by little, the morning sun not far away showed its head between the buildings, the whole city was illuminated by the morning light little by little, and the white roses on the street seemed to wake up, raising their heads one by one, and began to sway with the wind again. This kind of thing was repeated for several days, and finally it was a relatively important day for Chu Menghan and Liu Ruiqi.

The piano competition of Meiyun No. 1 Senior High School is the same as the school celebration, which is a necessary part of the year, and the location of this piano competition is also in the activity center of the school. The last time I came here was to watch Yi Mingjun's performance, he hadn't appeared for a long time, and he should appear in this piano competition, at least he would go to Liu Ruiqi. Chu Menghan thought so in her heart, but whether he went or not, it didn't matter to her now, after all, there was already someone she could rely on.

Her bright eyes glanced at Ye Hanyu, who was dressed in a black suit beside her, who was accompanying her backstage to prepare, and the preliminaries were about to start. In order to participate in the competition today, Ye Hanyu also specially prepared a white dress for Chu Menghan, with a silver necklace on her neck, which made her look much more energetic.

may be because Ye Hanyu's appearance is too high, and the eyes of many people in the background are focused on him, as if Chu Menghan came to accompany him to participate in the competition.

"You're dressed so formally, you look like you're going to compete. Chu Menghan's little face was a little red, and she looked a little unhappy. But she didn't realize that there was a strong smell of vinegar around her.

"Then I'll go to the auditorium. Ye Hanyu said coldly, and was about to leave.

Chu Menghan grabbed Ye Hanyu's arm at once, and hurriedly said, "Oh, why can't you stand a joke." ”

Ye Hanyu frowned, and said, "Joke?

Chu Menghan: "......"

"Okay, okay, don't go anywhere anyway, you're by my side, I'm still a little bit bottom. Chu Menghan said and let go of the arm that grabbed Ye Hanyu.

"What's the matter? Didn't you teach Liu Ruiqi and them a lesson a few days ago? Now there is no bottom in a person's heart?" Ye Hanyu tidied up his clothes and said to Chu Menghan.

Chu Menghan also straightened the folds of the clothes on his arms, and said, "Oh, one yard is one yard, this is a competition, whoever it is is a little nervous, not to mention, it is the first time for me to participate in such a competition." ”

"If you lose the game, don't say it's because I didn't teach well. Ye Hanyu still had no expression on his face when he spoke.

"Cut, what's the spirit, you don't rely on some soul spell to play the piano. Chu Menghan squinted at Ye Hanyu.

"Then you also use soul spells, it's not that you can't use them. Ye Hanyu found a place around to sit down and said.

She knew what Ye Hanyu meant, Chu Menghan raised her arm and glanced at the platinum bracelet he gave her, which indeed contained his soul spells, and Chu Menghan also knew that if she relied on these soul spells to participate in the competition, it would not be difficult to win the first place.

However, she still lowered her arm, and the platinum bracelet was now not only a lifesaver for her in times of crisis, but also a lucky charm on her body, and she used the platinum bracelet as a kind of spiritual support. Wear it on your body, just like the blood devil is by your side all the time. Thinking of this, she couldn't help but glance up at Ye Hanyu again, to be honest, the way he looked in formal clothes now was indeed very attractive, really like he was here to participate in the competition.

"You said that only when you are really strong can you not be afraid of others coming to find trouble, if I rely too much on your strength, wouldn't it be in vain for you to make me look good. Chu Menghan smiled, and then said.

"I didn't expect you to dare to participate, and I don't know where you got the courage from. ”

When Chu Menghan and Ye Hanyu were talking, the unwanted female voice not far away was getting closer and closer, Chu Menghan raised her eyes and saw that it was Liu Ruiqi who had already put on makeup and was walking towards this side, Yi Mingjun was also by her side, according to the order of appearance in the preliminaries, she was the first to play, and she was the fifth.

"I really hope to see you in the final. Chu Menghan responded to Liu Ruiqi like this.

"You'd better get past the qualifiers first. After Liu Ruiqi finished speaking, she pulled Yi Mingjun to another place. Yi Mingjun is still wearing that white suit, and he doesn't know what kind of character he is, this time he accompanied Liu Ruiqi to the backstage, he still didn't say a word, probably he was born like this.

This piano competition is divided into three processes, the qualifiers, the semi-finals and the finals. This qualifier is also a little different from the traditional competition, this qualifier requires the contestants to perform a solo performance, which must be original and must not refer to other piano works. After that, the judges select half of the contestants and eliminate the other half. After that, the rest of the people will play another piece of music, and two of them will be selected to reach the finals, and finally the remaining two people will play one-on-one to determine the final winner.

Chu Menghan, who had never participated in this kind of competition, was not only unfamiliar with the situation during the competition, but also saw the rules and procedures of the competition for the first time. There are a total of twelve people who came to participate in the competition this time, and the draw has been completed before, Liu Ruiqi was the first to play in the qualifiers, aside from Liu Ruiqi's personality, as the opponent of the game, Liu Ruiqi, who often participates in the game, can also give Chu Menghan some opportunities to learn if he is the first to play.

"The 13th Piano Competition of Meiyun No. 1 Senior High School will start soon, and the next is the qualifier, please get ready. ”

On the stage, the host's voice was transmitted to the backstage, and when they heard this voice, all the contestants entered a nervous state, Chu Menghan sat next to Ye Hanyu, and she could hear that her breathing was a little heavy now, fortunately, she was not the first to play, otherwise something might really go wrong.

"It's just a game. Ye Hanyu said casually, judging from his cognition, he was doing this to comfort Chu Menghan.

"It's so easy as you say. Chu Menghan replied to Ye Hanyu and said.

"It's much easier than chasing prey. Ye Hanyu said with a sneer, and licked his teeth with the tip of his tongue. Maybe Chu Menghan couldn't understand what Ye Hanyu said, as the second prince of the blood-sucking night clan, he often shuttled in blood, and his throat was often washed by blood, and a small competition was indeed insignificant compared to these.

"I really don't know what it's like when you suck blood, and you look so excited. ”

"Your blood will excite me even more. Ye Hanyu said and looked at Chu Menghan, and for a while Chu Menghan was a little trembling.

"But you don't have to worry, I'm still able to control myself as a soul-level person. After Ye Hanyu finished speaking, he turned his head to the other side again.

It's the soul rank again, and Ye Hanyu hasn't explained it to himself yet.

Next, I would like to invite the first contestant, Liu Ruiqi, to come to the stage to play. ”

The host's voice came to the backstage again, Liu Ruiqi was also on the side early to prepare to go on stage, when the host's voice fell, Liu Ruiqi, who was wearing a black long skirt, stepped on the stage with high heels, walking, there was an indescribable noble temperament, she sat on the seat, when her fingers touched the keys, her whole look became different. Yi Mingjun has been watching Liu Ruiqi on the side of the stage, and Chu Menghan has also come to the side to look at her, at this moment, she only thinks that Liu Ruiqi is a respectable opponent.

On the stage, all the bright lights were turned off in an instant, and then, only a small light illuminated Liu Ruiqi's entire body and the piano in front of him. She is like the only inch of light in the darkness, and the notes that are about to flow out are the carriers that transmit every inch of light.

When her hand touched the black and white keys, it was as if everything around her had become quiet, there was no sound in the audience, and the whole center of the event was only the melody of her fingertips.

Because the qualifiers require that the performance must be original, the requirements for each contestant have also been improved. There are a total of three judges this time, all of whom are well-known pianists in Meiyun City. The qualifiers also adopted the elimination rules of the scoring system.

Liu Ruiqi's music is relatively fast-paced, the rhythm is like a turbulent water beating the riverbank rapidly, and sometimes it is like a waterfall directly falling from a high place, stirring up a wave. The melody played was like flowing water, and after some turbulence, it finally returned to calm and slowly entered the river.

After the performance, Liu Ruiqi got up and bowed to the judges, and the three judges on the scene scored Liu Ruiqi with a full score of 10, and she finally scored 9.5 points.

Everyone present, including Chu Menghan backstage, was shocked, although Liu Ruiqi usually has a bad temper, but I have to admit that her piano playing just now is really worth 9.5 points. This also put a lot of pressure on Chu Menghan, the first one to appear was so powerful, and he didn't know if he could survive this qualifier.
