I was so scared that I put all my points into health.

Wang Xiaoyi (Meta Knight): The first to win the Best Character Recreation Award is...

As the drums sounded, their deep and powerful beats were like the rhythm of a heartbeat, striking people's hearts again and again.

Wang Xiaoyi (Meta Knight): Aurix, who plays the Black Mage. His portrayal of the Black Mage is absolutely superb; he truly seems to have stepped out of the dark world himself. His eyes, like two deep, ancient wells, exude a chilling aura, making me uneasy and unable to meet his gaze. Take his black robe, for example—pure, profound black, as if pulled from a dark abyss, every fold seemingly concealing a dark secret. And the eerie light in his eyes, like little devils dancing merrily within, flickering and full of cunning and mystery. Every gesture, every detail, seems meticulously crafted with dark magic, from the slight upturn of his lips to the faint wisp of black smoke he kicks up with each step, perfectly capturing the Black Mage's sinister allure. It's as if he's not acting, but the Black Mage himself casting spells on this stage, spreading fear and seduction. Let us welcome Orix, with his unique charisma that is both frightening and captivating, to the stage to accept the award.

When Aurex appeared, it was as if a dark sorcerer had stepped directly onto the stage from the unfathomable abyss of darkness, filled with endless mystery and evil. His appearance was like a mysterious phantom suddenly descending from the night sky; his enigmatic aura made the surrounding air seem heavy. He exuded an indescribable majesty, a tangible pressure that weighed heavily on everyone's hearts.

He was like an ultimate boss, his powerful aura emanating from every pore. Every gesture seemed to command the surroundings with an invisible force, exuding an undeniable regal presence. His way of entering the stage was also extremely unique; it wasn't an ordinary walk, but rather as if he were strolling on clouds. Each step he took was so light and elegant, as if his feet weren't touching the solid stage floor, but rather treading on ethereal, soft clouds.

Even more peculiar was the fact that his face seemed to be veiled by a mysterious magic. That mask, or perhaps the power of magic, concealed his features so completely that no one could see them clearly. He was like a mysterious being hidden in the darkness, giving off only a vague and enigmatic aura. It was as if his face itself was part of the dark magic, a way for him to conceal his power, or perhaps it was intentional, a deliberate act to create an elusive atmosphere.

Standing beside him, Wang Xiaoyi (Meta Knight) felt a chill run from his feet to his heart, as if he were about to be frozen. This chill didn't come from a drop in temperature, but from the dense, impenetrable aura of darkness emanating from Orix. Curiosity and doubt surged within Wang Xiaoyi (Meta Knight) like a tidal wave, and he finally couldn't help but ask the question everyone was so curious about: "How exactly did you portray a dark mage so vividly? Have you ever seen a real dark mage in real life? Or... are you a dark mage yourself?" His voice trembled slightly, for the person before him was truly too mysterious and unpredictable.

When he took the magical megaphone, his voice seemed to echo from a distant valley, ethereal and otherworldly. It was as if the sound had been woven by an invisible, skillful hand, a wondrous effect created by the interweaving of several voices. Each note was like an independent life form, leaping and weaving through the air. At times, it was as low as a murmur in the night, a sob emanating from a deep tomb, softly telling secrets of darkness; at other times, it was as sharp as a demon's shrill laugh, a piercing sound like a sharp sword, stabbing straight into people's hearts, sending chills down their spines.

Upon hearing Orix's voice, the captain of the royal guard immediately became alert. His hands unconsciously tightened around the hilt of his sword, his eyes fixed on Orix, and his body involuntarily took a small step forward, like a cheetah poised to pounce on its prey. He thought to himself, "If this really is a dark sorcerer, this is terrible! I must protect the king and princess first." The audience below also felt a chill run down their spines upon hearing the actor playing the dark sorcerer. The atmosphere in the entire hall instantly became tense; an invisible net of terror enveloped everyone's hearts.

Orexus, the actor playing the dark sorcerer, achieved his goal; he successfully drew everyone into the world of dark magic he had created. Just as everyone was immersed in this tense and mysterious atmosphere, he suddenly removed his mask. It turned out that he had been wearing a mask to conceal his handsome face, and his strange, otherworldly voice was actually an effect created using some minor magical techniques. He truly was a magical genius; his performance demonstrated both his profound understanding of the character and his unique magical skills. The captain of the guard, seeing that it was just a young man causing trouble, breathed a sigh of relief, inwardly grumbling, "That was terrifying, you little brat!"

Wang Xiaoyi (Meta Knight): Then he asked how the chill was created and how the black smoke was made, as if it had been soaked in a dark abyss.

Orix then answered everyone in his clear and pleasant voice, creating a bit of cold air with ice magic.

Wang Xiaoyi (Meta Knight) touched his arm; no wonder he felt a chill.

Wang Xiaoyi (Meta Knight) asked Orix if he had any words of thanks to him.

Orix gave a sly smile. "I thank myself for portraying myself so convincingly."

Wang Xiaoyi (Meta Knight) gave an awkward smile; this guy really thought he was a dark sorcerer.

The presenter for this award was Leon, the vice president of the Adventurer Guild branch, dressed in his own clothes. He transformed into a handsome and capable young man, eliciting cheers from the female audience members.

When Lyon handed the trophy to Orix, he inadvertently touched Orix's hand, which was icy cold, as if it had no temperature.

Wang Xiaoyi (Meta Knight) gracefully gestured for Orix to leave the stage. In an instant, the stage seemed to be freed from its gloom, becoming bright and clear, and the oppressive atmosphere that had been there for so long vanished without a trace.

Then, Wang Xiaoyi (Meta Knight) announced loudly: "Next, we will be presenting the Most Creative Performance Award, which goes to Zack, the actor who plays Kirby. Zack has reinterpreted the character of Kirby in his own way, incorporating many unique creative elements into his performance. Whether it's the unique action design during Kirby's battles or the special emotions he displays when interacting with his partners, it's all refreshing and makes it seem as if the classic character of Kirby has been given a brand new life."

Wang Xiaoyi (Meta Knight) paused, a gentle smile on his face, and continued, "The next award is rather special; it's called the 'Cute and Ugly Encouragement Award.' The winners are King Slime (Murphy), King Goblin (Aria), King Wolf (Kalan), Griffin (Jasmine), and Flynn (Lucas in drag). While they may not possess the refined acting skills of professional actors, they brought everyone a performance full of joy and surprises with their purest passion and unique understanding of their characters. Every performance they made on stage, whether it was their imitation of the characters' appearances or their unique movements and expressions, was full of that unique charm of cuteness and ugliness. This distinctive performance style deserves encouragement and recognition."

Wang Xiaoyi (Meta Knight)'s gaze grew even more solemn and serious. He slowly said, "Now, we are going to present the Best Props Award. The winners are the gentlemen of our Magic Guild's Alchemy Team, including Master Thorne Metallurgy, Master Bray Herbalism, Master Mok Combination, Master Grove Craftsman, and Master Herry Materials. These are all remarkable figures; they hold pivotal positions within the Magic Guild. With their years of experience and in-depth research into alchemy, they have achieved considerable skill in all aspects. Each of them, individually, is fully capable of undertaking such an important task as instructing students."

Wang Xiaoyi (Meta Knight)'s voice was full of admiration as he continued, "However, they have higher aspirations. They know the high level of alchemy masters and that they still have a lot of room for improvement. Adhering to the idea that learning is endless, they resolutely devoted themselves to this performance creation."

His eyes were filled with admiration as he continued, “To receive guidance from the legendary alchemist, they worked tirelessly like warriors. Day and night, they buried themselves in the script, meticulously studying every detail, not allowing any opportunity to improve their performance to slip by. At the same time, they threw themselves into rehearsals, repeatedly refining every movement and expression. It could be said that their faces were brimming with a deep love for acting, an emotion that came from the depths of their hearts, and also overflowing with a strong desire for victory.”

Wang Xiaoyi (Meta Knight) paused briefly, as if leaving room for the audience to imagine the scene, before continuing, "In this performance, all the props were like magical artifacts with life of their own, each one exquisitely crafted like a work of art. Look at those magic bottles filled with mysterious power; they're like treasure boxes containing countless magical sprites. Just looking at them, you can feel the mysterious power they contain, as if it might burst forth at any moment. And those exquisite alchemical tools—every small part seems to tell a story of the great mysteries of alchemy. They seem to have come from the ancient and distant history of alchemy, carrying countless legendary tales."

His voice gradually rose in fervor: "These masters are like super magical craftsmen in prop making; their talent shines as brightly as the stars in the night sky. They meticulously craft each prop with their wisdom and profound understanding of alchemy. These props add so much brilliance to the entire performance, just as stars add luster to the night sky. They truly deserve this award."

Several middle-aged men happily went up on stage, their joy evident on their faces. But what made them even happier was yet to come.

After Wang Xiaoyi (Meta Knight) finished speaking, thunderous applause erupted from the audience, as everyone expressed their heartfelt congratulations and deep respect to the award winners.

Wang Xiaoyi (Meta Knight): "The next award is for Best Makeup. This award goes to President Winnie. We all know that President Winnie's makeup today is absolutely stunning. It's as if a magic paintbrush has painted an extremely beautiful work of art on her face, with every detail handled perfectly. Whether it's the deep, mysterious color of her eyes, or the unique design of her lips, it's like a delicate, blooming flower that's particularly eye-catching. This makeup makes the character seem as if she's stepped directly from a fantasy world into our lives. This award is a high affirmation of this person's exceptional skill in makeup creation. Of course, the beauty sets used today are exclusively sponsored by our store. Everyone is welcome to come and purchase; group purchases offer even more discounts!" Wang Xiaoyi didn't forget to take the opportunity to do some advertising.

Wang Xiaoyi (Meta Knight): "Now we present the Most Adorable Pet Award." Wang Xiaoyi (Meta Knight): "The winner of this award is an adorable magical creature owner. Let's welcome Lillian to the stage to receive the award."

Lillian walked joyfully onto the stage, carrying her magical creature, which looked like a little angel who had stepped out of a magical fairy tale. Its fluffy little body was like the softest cloud, making you want to reach out and hug it; its bright eyes were like twinkling stars in the night sky, full of life. Every little movement it made was like an adorable little magical spell, capable of melting our hearts.

Wang Xiaoyi (Meta Knight): "The last individual award is the Worst Performance Award. Who will receive this award?"

The sound of drums slowly began.

Wang Xiaoyi (Meta Knight): "It's Baron, the captain of the first team who plays President Vinnie. Please welcome Captain Baron to the stage to receive the award."

Baron awkwardly stood up and swaggered onto the stage, a stark contrast to President Winnie's elegance, eliciting laughter from the audience. The presenter, however, was none other than the real President Winnie. She walked gracefully and calmly onto the stage, handing the trophy to Baron. As she gazed at him, a subtle, almost imperceptible, "killer intent" flashed across her lips, startling Baron so much he nearly dropped the trophy. President Winnie gently raised her hand, and the trophy floated slowly into the air. Captain Baron frantically tried to reach it, always just missing. Was this a woman's unique form of revenge? It was truly frightening. Everyone was amused by this little incident, but after this little mishap…

Next up is the main event – ​​the team award.
