Figure Skating: Waltz on Ice

Today is Friday, and Zhou Mi, who lives at school, made plans with her classmates to watch Du Liangchen's variety show debut when she got home tonight.

Zhou Mi is a fan of Du Liangchen and keeps up with his activities. Unfortunately, she can't see Du Liangchen during the blackout period after the season ends, and she always sighs during this time.

I was incredibly excited when I heard from my classmates that Du Liangchen was participating in the premiere of "The Peak of War" and couldn't wait to watch it.

During this period, she often looked for photos of Du Liangchen going to work and having meals taken by fans online. If she weren't in class and didn't have time, she would definitely buy a ticket to see him.

Finally, the holiday arrived. Zhou Mi quickly ran out of the school and rushed home like a gust of wind.

Hearing the door open and the sound of the television, Mom, who was cooking in the kitchen, came out with a spatula.

"MiMi, you've just come back and you're watching TV!" Mom glared at her. "All you do when you get back is play. You don't even talk to your mom."

"what!"

Zhou Mi was browsing through variety shows she wanted to watch when she heard her mother's unfriendly tone. She ran to her mother's side and hugged her affectionately.

"Oh, Mom! I finally got a day off and came home, can you let me watch it for a little while tonight?"

Mom narrowed her eyes slightly, "Have you finished your homework before watching TV?"

Zhou Mi pouted and pleaded, "Oh, Mom, I've been stuck at school for half a month, can you just let me watch it for a little while? I'll do my homework as soon as I finish watching it, I promise I'll finish it by tomorrow, okay?"

Seeing that she herself had made the promise, and that the child had indeed been studying at school for half a month and should relax a bit, the mother deliberately teased her and reluctantly agreed: "Well... okay then."

"yeah!"

Zhou Mi happily kissed her mother, then jumped onto the sofa like a playful puppy to watch TV.

Her mother was amused by her appearance and muttered in exasperation, "This child..."

After the commercials, the main feature begins:

The show begins with the host introducing the new rules for "The Summit Season 5" this year.

"The five clubs participating in the Star Tournament are the top five clubs from the Spring Season. They will all participate in the Star Tournament together. This season, the players will be closely tied to the five clubs throughout the entire season, fighting for the glory of their clubs."

This season will introduce a brand-new "Summit of the Rift" Red and Black List, which will be updated in real time for each stage of the competition. Based on all player information and interview recordings, the Dream Team players will conduct the first round of Red and Black List selection.

So, the sixteen of us here are here to select the first round of the "Red and Black List." Now, everyone, take a look at the resumes in your hands. Is there anyone you're particularly interested in?

The sixteen people in the audience began to look through the resumes in their hands.

"This 'little girl selling missiles' has a rather interesting name..."

"Wow~ 'Shrimp Doesn't Blink', so arrogant, I want to see how he does it."

“I’d also like to see it; look at the profile picture, it’s a dagger.”

"The profile picture belongs to a cool guy, but I didn't expect him to have a nickname like 'Little Bear Lead Singer'! What a contrast!"

......

"Hahaha...I'm dying of laughter! This ID is hilarious, 'Luotuo Xiangzi', does it have to be so abstract?!"

Zhou Mi was drinking water in front of the screen, not thinking there was anything wrong with the name, but when the camera panned across her, she spat out the water she hadn't even swallowed yet. "Cough cough, hahaha... Who is this? So talented, so funny!"

On television at that moment.

The host also found the resume of the person they mentioned named 'Luo Tuo Xiang Zi'. "Okay, then, as everyone's request, let's see if this contestant's gameplay is as abstract as his name."

He used Sun Shangxiang, playing the marksman role. He was very stable, doing well in the early game, but he never won a team fight in the late game. The video shows him dying in all sorts of creative ways.

The sixteen judges and the host were completely dumbfounded.

Zhou Mi wiped the water she had sprayed on the floor, frowned and complained, "Tsk~ This level of skill and operation is not even as good as mine. She should really be called Xiangzi (meaning 'scream')."

The judges raised questions.

"Wait, shouldn't this be an exciting video? Why are there so many different ways to die?"

The camera then shifts to reveal that the contestant with the ID "Luo Tuo Xiang Zi" is actually Cheng Xiao, who is handsome, an idol, and has exceptional professional skills.

He sat in his car, being interviewed by his filming director.

What was your mindset when you submitted your interview video?

Cheng Xiao smiled sheepishly, "Well, it's normal. I usually play like this when I play games. I just wanted to show my true skill level. Actually, I used to play jungle, but I found the marksman role more interesting. However, I was always a little lacking in mechanics, so I was hoping that the coach here could teach me to play marksman."

Judges' panel.

"He used to play jungle, but he felt it wasn't challenging enough, so he switched to marksman. What does that mean? It means he's an all-around player."

"Oh, that makes sense."

"He played purely realistically throughout the game. Although he died a lot, each time he died, he took down one enemy. He was truly aggressive when initiating team fights! He perfectly demonstrated the attitude of 'I may die, but you must die too,' so he is a very qualified jungler."

Zhou Mi pursed her lips and shook her head, clicking her tongue in amazement, "My goodness, in order not to offend Cheng Xiao's fans, this is really just forcing praise!"

Host: "Next up is a highlight reel of player number sixteen, 'Squishy and hard to kill,' a support role."

The hero used in the video is Lu Ban, but the player's skills are not proficient. The support even tried to tower dive for a solo kill, and unsurprisingly, ended up getting himself killed...

"Wow, this technique, this awareness, it's not good!"

"It's going to be difficult to solo kill under two towers."

......

The camera then pans to show Du Liangchen's handsome face on the screen.

His exquisite makeup made him look like an elf from a fairy tale. His round, almond-shaped eyes were large and clear, but upon closer inspection, they seemed to be veiled by a thin mist, making them difficult to reach.

"Hi everyone, I'm Du Liangchen, a figure skater. My level in Glory is... because I haven't played for a long time, my level is just average now, and I hope to improve it by participating in this program."

Zhou Mi, watching TV, was excitedly screaming. She didn't realize that her idol image had collapsed because of Du Liangchen's entertaining antics.

The shouts brought her mother out. "What are you doing? Can't you make any noise like a normal person? You're not behaving like a proper young lady at all!"

"Mom, it's Du Liangchen..." Zhou Mi was hit on the back and immediately became obedient. "I was wrong, I won't call him that anymore." She even made a zipper gesture with her mouth after saying that.

When the mother saw Du Liangchen on the screen, she knew he was her daughter's idol, so she went out of her way to learn more about him. "The young man is indeed quite handsome. He looks even better with his new hair, even better than on the field."

"Right? My idol excels in all aspects of morality, intelligence, physical fitness, aesthetics, and labor." Zhou Mi looked so pleased with herself that anyone who didn't know better would think she was being praised.

Mom turned away with a look of disgust and went into the kitchen.

Zhou Mi was displeased. "Hey! Don't go! What do you mean? I'm your sweetheart."

Mom's voice came from the kitchen, "No, you can shut up now."

Zhou Mi angrily punched the sofa, scaring away the kitten that was licking its fur on the sofa.

The TV was showing a video of "Xiaoqiang Doesn't Pass," where Xiaoqiang was playing a jungler, clearing two jungle camps at the start. He took down two of the three opponents and managed to escape.

The 49.3% damage output in one game stunned everyone present.

"Perfect rhythm, this is already worthy of being on the red list."

The scene shifts to Mei Jing, who says "Xiao Qiang doesn't pass".

Zhou Mi's mouth dropped open in surprise, "Oh my god! They've come all this way! Does Mei Jing have to live without Chenchen? Wherever Du Liangchen is, Mei Jing will appear. How annoying!"

Next, the 25 contestants were introduced, and Zhou Mi quickly moved on to the next segment.

At this time, many students who are on holiday and have returned home are watching "The Peak of the Battle". The program team has invited many celebrity guests, and there is bound to be one that Ganzhong likes.
