The backdrop can also be propped up.

Sun Xi, standing at the entrance of the arena, frowned as she looked at the students who had gathered in circles below the arena, and then turned her puzzled gaze to Teacher Fu on the arena.

Are you playing this big game if you're not a teacher?

With things having come to this, Sun Xi took a deep breath, gritted his teeth, dragged his skateboard, and stepped onto the competition stage.

The moment Sun Xi stepped onto the arena, barriers instantly rose around it to prevent accidental injury to spectators.

Looking at Teacher Fu, who was two heads taller than him, Sun Xi swallowed hard, threw his skateboard on the ground, stepped on it, and finally chose to clasp his hands and bow his head instead of clasping them together: "Teacher, I apologize for my rudeness."

Teacher Fu didn't reply, but simply sat down on a chair and then produced his own attack instrument.

Sun Xi swallowed hard as he looked at the church organ, which was as tall as a two-story building, that appeared in front of him.

After that, Sun Xi put his feet on the skateboard and conjured up his own attack instrument, the drum kit.

As the countdown ended, there was a two-second silence on stage before Sun Xi struck the loud cymbal first—it was time to test the waters with the other side.

As the powerful cymbals sounded, a small, peach-colored crescent-shaped ball of light flew away, contrasting sharply with the church organ itself.

Teacher Fu didn't watch Sun Xi's attack—of course, his instrument was so big, he probably couldn't see it anyway—he just casually pressed a few keys with both hands.

A huge ball of golden light leaped out from the pipe of the organ and hurtled towards Sun Xi.

The students below the stage watched as a huge ball of golden light hurtled straight down on the girl.

The huge ball of golden light crashed to the ground and emitted a blinding glare, causing the students watching the competition below to cover their eyes in unison.

"Wow! Such a huge ball of something is falling down, isn't Teacher Fu going to hold back a bit?" a student asked.

"Have you forgotten how he got his nickname 'Jade-Faced Asura'?" another student replied to the first one.

"Heh, isn't that how he is? He looks pleasing to the eye at first glance, but after a couple of seconds you want to get away from him." Another classmate sneered. "This competition is over."

The discussions among those around them undoubtedly increased Zhao Wuyin and the others' anxiety.

Zhao Wuyin and his group squeezed around the stands several times, hoping to find Sun Xi.

After the golden light completely dissipated, the place where Sun Xi had stood was empty.

"Oh dear, that's it?" Via clicked her tongue impatiently. "We even managed to snag a good spot on the second floor to watch, and it was all over in one move."

“Yeah, right,” Mu Xingxing said dismissively, “I thought that guy was pretty bold, but I didn’t expect him to be such a fool.”

"Hey, alright, looks like someone can take my brother's number one spot in my heart, the one who's so arrogant and ignorant." Qi Yingying twirled her golden hair.

Mia sipped her blueberry juice, no longer paying attention to the battle below—she had originally planned to browse the jewelry store, but upon hearing that a student had challenged a teacher to a fight, she came to watch. She hadn't expected it to end so quickly; how boring. The golden light stung her eyes.

Unlike Su Hanshuang's group of girlfriends who were impatient, Shangguan Chenxi, who was inside Su Hanshuang's body, did not show any concern for the dark brown-haired girl.

Shangguan Chenxi had originally planned to sound out the newly formed four-person band when she had some free time, and perhaps even seek advice from her legendary colleague. Although she didn't know which of the three—Zhao Wuyin, Sun Xi, or Andra—her colleague was actually in.

However, after the golden light dissipated, the arena did not determine who won or lost, which made the people below the stage somewhat restless.

"Is it over?" someone asked. "Why hasn't Teacher Fu come down yet?"

Zhao Wuyin and the others craned their necks to look for Sun Xi on the stage, but they couldn't find him anywhere.

"Where's Little Cake?" Zhao Wuyin craned her neck but couldn't see him. She then looked up at the pipe of Teacher Fu's organ—she suspected that Little Cake might have been sucked away by Teacher Fu's attack instrument.

“There’s no pipe, and there’s no arena, so where could Sun Xi be?” Andra looked in all directions she could see but couldn’t find Sun Xi anywhere.

David frowned as well. He suddenly remembered that he had added a flight function to the skateboard, but surely Sun Xi wouldn't break through the barrier and run away.

Teacher Fu frowned. He knew the student should still be on the stage, but where was the student? He hadn't exerted much force; the student shouldn't have been reduced to ashes.

Wang Xin sat in a secluded corner, watching the competition on the arena just like everyone else.

When the golden light dissipated and Wang Xin glanced around hastily, not seeing anyone on the stage except for Teacher Fu, she gave up the idea that Sun Xi was still on the stage.

However, a rapidly moving dark figure in the golden light caught Wang Xin's attention.

After recognizing the person, Wang Xin's eyes widened, and she involuntarily cried out.

"She's there!" a surprised female voice came from an inconspicuous corner. "She dodged the attack!"

Upon hearing the girl's words, everyone first turned their heads towards the direction from which her voice came, and then looked in the direction from which she could see.

Many people have discovered that the area is their blind spot.

Sun Xi hid in the blind spot of most people, one foot on the ground and the other on the skateboard, his hands tightly gripping his drumsticks, panting heavily—the teacher is indeed a teacher, his strength is terrifying.

She actually dodged it. Teacher Fu had to peek to the side to see the girl with the bob haircut. She was quite good at hiding.

Seeing that the girl with the bob haircut was still holding the drumsticks of an attacking instrument and showed no sign of giving up, Teacher Fu turned her head back and continued playing.

Noticing Teacher Fu's actions, Sun Xi immediately took action as well.

Sun Xi first slid the drumsticks a couple of times, and before the golden light hit him, he slammed the two drumsticks together.

The skateboards scattered in response, and the drum kit that Sun Xi had summoned landed steadily on the separated skateboards.

While dodging Teacher Fu's light attacks on her skateboard, Sun Xi tried to guess the score of the piece Teacher Fu was playing in her mind—she decided to keep up with Teacher Fu's rhythm first, and then make other plans.

Then Sun Xi pushed off the ground with one foot, using the shockwave from Teacher Fu's attack to send himself, his skateboard, and his attack instrument flying—the ground was too dangerous, flying was much safer.

After stabilizing himself in the air, Sun Xi found an opening in Teacher Fu's attack range and, while keeping time, reviewed the sounds of controlling the skateboard in all directions.

Then Sun Xi spread his legs as wide as possible and lowered his center of gravity to prevent himself from being thrown off by the rapid movement of the skateboard.

Watching Sun Xi wobbling precariously on his skateboard in the air, the three people below felt their hearts leap into their throats.

Zhao Wuyin gritted his teeth nervously.

Andra clasped his hands together and murmured an indistinct prayer.

David was reflecting on why he had set up flight without adding guardrails.

Seeing that the short-haired girl with dark brown hair not only dodged Teacher Fu's barrage of questions, but could even fly, a few cheers came from the students watching the excitement below the stage.

Of course, there are things to worry about.

An Yingxue held Li Luer's hand and said with some worry, "Won't she fall?"

Looking at the girl swinging in the air like a giant pendulum, Li Lu'er frowned and said, "I think it's going to be dangerous. She's making me nervous."

At this moment, Sun Xi on the stage also realized what Teacher Fu was talking about.

After mentally calculating that he would need to tap more than 400 beats per minute, Sun Xi cheered himself up: I can do it!

So Sun Xi kept up with the speed of Teacher Fu's playing, his hands holding the drumsticks and creating afterimages.

Seeing that the girl had not yet been knocked off the stage and had even begun to fight back, Teacher Fu decided to increase the difficulty—he wanted to see how long this girl could hold out.

Teacher Fu's playing speed increased significantly, and the attack changed from a huge ball of light to a dense cluster of small balls of light.

Of course, this is not necessarily a good thing, because these small orbs of light have a certain tracking function.

Sun Xi's hand speed increased along with Teacher Fu's speed, and it has increased from more than 400 beats to more than 500 beats.

Sun Xi opened her mouth and let out a silent scream.

Within the consciousness space, Lu Renkui and the system WQBYRZM were also busy.

Sun Xi needed to keep time to keep the beat, and her eyes didn't have time to see when the small orbs of light would appear in all directions. So Lu Renkui and the system WQBYRZM took on part of the responsibility of watching where the attacking orbs of light were flying from and directing Sun Xi to ride her skateboard.

"Left, left, left! Up! Right! Down, down! Left! Up, up, up!" Lu Renkui directed Sun Xi's body to dodge in which direction by looking through Sun Xi's eyes at the small balls flying in from all directions.

When she mentioned her dry mouth, Lu Renkui suddenly felt a little fortunate that she had some experience playing VR games; otherwise, she wouldn't know where to hide from such a dense cluster of light.

"This is so exciting!" Lu Renkui thought to himself, feeling both excited and mentally exhausted.

The system WQBYRZM calculates the trajectory of all the light orbs flying towards Teacher Fu and predicts which direction they will fly towards Sun Xi, so that Lu Renkui can better tell Sun Xi which direction to dodge.

Teacher Fu lowered her head and closed her eyes as she played the piano.

As he played, Mr. Fu had a bad feeling. He pulled his hand away, opened his eyes, and a small crescent-shaped ball of light hit the keyboard of his instrument.

Looking at the still-lingering, soft pink light, Teacher Fu squinted and looked up in the direction from which the pink crescent moon had flown.

Sure enough, the girl with the bob haircut was diagonally above her. She looked like she was already struggling – her bangs were soaked with sweat and stuck tightly to her forehead, her chest was heaving violently, and if you looked closely, you could see that her legs behind the drum set were trembling.

Seeing this, Teacher Fu had no intention of holding back at all—he had already realized that the opponent was a student suppressing his output, and the fact that the attack had managed to hit him was purely because he had underestimated his opponent.

Teacher Fu didn't say anything, but pressed a few more keys, and one after another, small orbs of light flew out of the organ pipes and flew towards Sun Xi.

Seeing another ball of light flying towards him, Sun Xi gritted his teeth, raised his already aching arms, and continued playing the drums.

But as Sun Xi shattered those small golden orbs of light, she heard Teacher Fu's voice.

"You've really opened my eyes to the fact that you've managed to persevere this long." Teacher Fu's voice, like a ghost whispering in Sun Xi's ear, drifted into his ears.

Sun Xi kept moving her hands, but as more and more small orbs of light were destroyed, Teacher Fu also talked more and more.

"But you were a bit too reckless,"

"There is a kind of foolishness and arrogance that is unique to children."

Do you think you're already incredibly capable?

"You simply cannot demonstrate to me the full potential your instrument can achieve."

"After this is over, I will deal with you according to school rules—unless you can beat me after this move."

"Children must pay the price for their arrogance." These were the words Teacher Fu said after Sun Xi destroyed the last golden orb of light.

After the ball of light was shattered, instantly, every pipe of the organ emitted a blinding golden light, which then slammed into the dark brown-haired girl in an encircling motion.

Seeing the orbs of light flying towards him from all directions, Sun Xi took a deep breath. A bold idea suddenly came to his mind.

Sun Xi frowned, gritted his teeth, closed his eyes tightly, and then used all the strength he could muster to strike the drums.

With a loud bang, the golden ball of light exploded.

After the light faded, people could only vaguely see a broken drum kit.

"Oh dear, is this... over?" Li Lu'er said with a hint of regret, looking at the pink drum kit that had fallen to the ground along with the skateboard and then disappeared.

"But where is that girl?" An Yingxue frowned, squinting hard, trying to see the figure of the girl with the bob haircut in the lingering light.

Hearing the murmurs from below the stage, Teacher Fu thought the matter was over. Just as he was about to recall his percussion instrument, he suddenly felt a chill run down his spine.

Teacher Fu subconsciously turned his head and saw the girl with the bob haircut lower her body, step on the skateboard and glide at bullet speed, rushing towards him, still holding the two drumsticks in her hands.

It was too late to hide—when Teacher Fu turned around, the two were already very close.

Meeting those peach-colored eyes, Teacher Fu suddenly understood what it meant to have eyes only for the desire to win.

Soon, Teacher Fu was out of sight because Sun Xi slammed two drumsticks into his face.

The people on the stage saw that the huge pipe organ had been taken back and the barrier had slowly fallen.

Then, everyone saw a man struggling to maintain his balance and Teacher Fu lying on the ground with his glasses shattered in two.

There was a two-second silence. When Sun Xi, propelled by inertia, rushed to the edge of the stage, swayed as he tried to stand up, and finally collapsed off the stage, the students watching the match in the arena erupted in a deafening roar.

Sun Xi landed in Zhao Wuyin and Andra's arms, but David only managed to grab one sleeve. The three of them were thrown backward by the force of Sun Xi's movement.

However, Sun Xi did not fall to the ground with the other three people because she felt that she was caught by a girl.

Sun Xi, whose body had relaxed, was exhausted and sleepy due to the enormous physical exertion.

Sun Xi closed his eyes, and the sounds around him seemed to be far away. He could only faintly hear one sentence: "You're very capable. I underestimated you."
