I became a girl group idol for my sister.

As Miyu Nagasu spoke excitedly, Mika Komatsu, though her expression didn't change much, couldn't help but smile, revealing her inner excitement.

However, this means that the number of songs and dances that need to be learned will depend on the number of performances by the official members each time.

In other words, things will get even more tiring from here on out.

The thought of being even busier and more tired made Miyamoto's face darken.

He also needs to balance his schoolwork!

If you have insufficient attendance, you will be questioned or even expelled!

"Well, just keep working hard. I have high hopes for you graduate students, you all have great potential!" Naoki Sakurako saw Miyamoto Sei's somewhat uneasy expression and comforted him with a smile.

Upon arriving at the program location, the staff were already there. Following behind Sakagami Minami and Naoki Sakurako, they greeted the staff and then proceeded to the filming location.

After taking their seats, the group waited for the day's event to begin.

"Nana-chan," Miyu Eian whispered beside her.

"what happened?"

Miyamoto looked at Nagaan Miyu and noticed that she was breathing rapidly and had a few beads of sweat on her face, indicating that she was still a little nervous.

"May I...can I shake your hand?"

She spoke with a hint of unease.

"If it were Nana-chan, I feel... I feel like I could calm down."

Her hand was gently grasped, and Miyamoto smiled softly at Nagasu Miyu without saying anything.

"Thank you." She whispered her thanks, feeling the warmth of the hand being held, and Yongan Miyu's previously uneasy heart calmed down, and her complexion returned to normal.

She let go, took a deep breath, and gently patted her cheeks, clearly ready.

Minami Sakagami, watching the interaction between the two, gently nudged Sakurako Naoki with her elbow and asked, "What do you think?"

“A very good relationship, isn’t it?” Naoki Sakurako had obviously seen all this before, and smiled slightly. “I suddenly understand why Amagai-sensei did it this way. As long as Nana-chan is there, Miyu-chan can show her idol side, and Miyu-chan’s light has not yet been fully revealed.”

Sakagami Minami's eyes held a hint of worry: "But these two can't keep going like this forever... If they want to continue, they have to learn to be independent, otherwise they can't become true idols."

"But at least not now. It's hard to say how long or short it will take."

The two were speaking in very low voices, which would normally be difficult to hear. However, perhaps because of the Heavenly Demon Three-Piece Set, Miyamoto Sei still managed to hear some of it. He was somewhat surprised by the conversation between Sakagami Minami and Naoki Sakurako.

So, the reason I'm doing the Center's job now is actually to be a sparring partner for the real future stars?

However, if this is Tenbei Lisa's true purpose, it doesn't seem bad. She helps me pay for my sister's treatment, so I will temporarily act as a guide for her next-generation ace. In the process, I can also benefit, so it's a win-win situation.

Miyamoto thought to himself, then glanced at Nagasu Miyu. The girl, encouraged by him, had a tense expression but also a smile, making her look very strong.

If one cannot learn to be independent, then one cannot truly become a qualified idol... right?

That's true in some ways. This is a girl group, and I'm a guy. I became an idol out of necessity, and I'll leave when things reach their limit. So, will Miyu really be able to be independent then? If she can't be independent and truly face this kind of pressure alone...

Although I've only known this child for less than two months, I'm certain she's a good person, and her desire to become an idol is genuine. She works very hard, and if she fails...

Not only Miyu, but also Mika, who is very worried about others but is not good at speaking and is easily misunderstood. Yurina usually acts like an old man, but she also uses her own methods to eliminate the barriers between her companions.

Rika really loves sweets, but no matter how much she likes them, she'll still share them with everyone...

As for Asuka, although she is a bit clumsy and not particularly talented, she has always worked very hard. Even when she clearly hurt her knee last time, she didn't slack off at all.

Everyone is working hard, and even if the outcome might be failure, at least while I'm still in the group, I'll give it my all as the center...

After all, they really trust me!

Miyamoto took a deep breath and silently made up his mind.

And finally, the time came for it to air.

"Three, two, one, action!"

"Oh!"

Accompanied by a sound like a firecracker exploding, a large amount of white steam rose up around them.

"Welcome to Extremely Spicy Hell!"

The show officially began with the voice of a host dressed like a comedian.

"Everyone knows that the Spicy Hell is a hell named after spiciness, but that's not the point. The point is the punishment! Spiciness is the punishment! If you can't complete the mission objective, the loser will naturally have to accept the punishment!"

"So today's game is a question-and-answer competition!"

Chapter Thirty-Four: Super Spicy Hellish Chicken Wings [Second Update]

"Is everything arranged?"

The program director looked at the already started show and asked the person next to him.

"It's all set up. The ordinary people participating are actually high-achieving university students. I can't say they'll get all the answers right, but making a few idols fail shouldn't be a problem at all," the person said immediately.

"The poor girl group idols are incompetent and can't even beat ordinary people. They suffer a crushing defeat and have to be punished for it. This will definitely attract a lot of attention. If they cry from the spiciness, they will definitely make more people laugh and attract more people. I'm not a demon, so this is a win-win situation."

The program manager spoke in a low voice, his smile suggesting that his program was about to become a hit.

"That's for sure. Although there are three graduate students this time, the other two are quite famous. One is Minami Sakagami, who was sixth in the last general election, and the other is Sakurako Naoki, who was first in the last election. If these two are brought to tears by the spiciness, it will definitely generate a lot of buzz."

The two were having a conversation, while the host was still making introductions outside.

"Today, our guest is a member of the wildly popular SKR girl group!"

"Team S captain, Minami Sakagami!"

"Team K Center, Naoki Sakurako!"

"Then, there are three graduate students: Miyu Nagasu, Nana Miyamoto, and Mika Komatsu!"

Hearing this way of introducing them, Miyamoto wanted to roll her eyes. The previous ones were introduced one by one, but when it came to these three, they were just mentioned in passing. If their names hadn't been mentioned, the audience probably wouldn't even know who they were.

"Today's quiz competition rules are very simple. The five guests will take turns participating as a team. After five incorrect answers, the team will switch members and answer the questions posed by the production team together with the challenger. There is a buzzer system. If you get the answer but fail to answer it within 20 seconds, you lose. The loser will have to eat the super spicy hell chicken wings prepared by the production team. You must finish them!"

Upon hearing this, Miyamoto noticed that the expressions on everyone's faces changed slightly, with both Sakagami Minami and Naoki Sakurako looking rather displeased.

Chicken wings are definitely not the problem; the problem lies in the word "extra spicy." If you fail, you have to eat extra spicy chicken wings, and it's a question-and-answer competition. Who knows what kind of questions the production team will ask?

"The challengers were randomly selected from the audience members who sent letters to the production team last time. To protect the privacy of the contestants, we have thoughtfully prepared masks." The host said, picking up a mask. The mask only covered the upper half of the face, leaving the lower half exposed, which could be used to eat and drink.

"Now, let's welcome our challengers!"

As the host's voice rang out, a door opened behind them, and three people walked out. They were all wearing masks, and it was obvious that without removing their masks, it would be impossible to know who they were.

"So, let's call these three Mysterious Challenger A, Mysterious Challenger B, and Mysterious Challenger C! With the arrival of these three challengers and their duel with the five adorable idol girls, who will emerge victorious? Let's begin!"

"To be fair, we will determine the initial participants of the five girls by drawing lots!"

As the host spoke, he reached into a pre-prepared box, casually waved his hand around, and then touched the marked slip. Knowing that he had received the assigned slip, he pulled it out.

Pretending to look at the signature, even though he already knew who it belonged to, he still pointed it at the camera lens and shouted it out loud.

"Sakagami Minami!"

"Eh? Is it me?" Although she was a little unhappy about this situation, Sakagami Minami, being a proper idol, immediately raised her hand and smiled at the camera: "Then I'll be going up!"

She perfectly controlled her facial expression and sat down in the seat that had been prepared for her on the stage.

"So, the challenger we've chosen is the mysterious Challenger A. Please get ready!"

"So, for the first question, when was Isaac Newton born?"

This question not only stunned Sakagami Minami, but also Miyamoto Sei and the others who were seated.

Is this a question for an idol?

Everyone knows that idols are trained from a young age and often don't have time to go to school. Asking this kind of question is just bullying them.

Besides, who has the time to remember Newton's birthday?

Although Miyamoto did write all of these down, generally speaking, not many people would pay attention to these issues.

"Ding!"

The buzzer has been pressed; it was the mysterious challenger A who pressed it.

"Oh! It's the mysterious challenger A. So, what's the answer? 20 seconds left!"

"Isaac Newton was born on January 4, 1643!"

"Correct answer!" the host shouted. "Now, the loser will have to accept the punishment!"

Immediately, a staff member came over with a plate on it, with a small chicken wing on it. According to Miyamoto Sei's eating style, it is the kind that can be eaten clean in two or three bites. However, this chicken wing is special because it is completely covered with red chili peppers. The completely red chicken wing exudes an aura that no one is allowed to get close to and put their mouth on.

Sakagami Minami looked at the chicken wing with the expression that of someone beckoning to her from hell.

"Ugh, no way, is it really that scary? Just looking at it is terrifying!" After letting out a groan, Sakagami Minami suddenly regained her enthusiasm and clenched her fist: "Alright, let's get started!"

She picked up the chicken wing with a tissue, took a small bite, and then Sakagami Minami's expression changed.
