How to become an ACE of a top boy group

The day before the qualifying selection is coming up, and Luo Xi will be very busy today. All the trainees have to gather in the lobby on the first floor at 7 o'clock, and she has to go to the recording building at 10 o'clock to prepare for the rehearsal.

The rehearsal in the recording building was only used to test sound effects and lighting. There were limited spots for the rehearsal, and it was first-come, first-served. Most trainees either gave up because they had no hope or were too timid to register. Luo Xi, who registered early, managed to grab a spot for the rehearsal.

When the alarm rang at five o'clock, Luo Xi got up from the ground, planning to go back to the dormitory to take a shower first, as she would have to tidy herself up before meeting people later.

Luo Xi felt she would be leaving this practice room for so long today, and she was sure it would be occupied by someone else. Before leaving, she sincerely reminisced about the practice room for thirty seconds, thanking God for letting her find it and thanking Gu Minxing for letting her have it...

Wait a minute, maybe it's not about letting...?

Come to think of it, Gu Minxing had actually returned to this practice room before, but left quietly after finding Luo Xi there.

Luo Xi suddenly realized that he might be suspected of encroaching on other people's practice room.

【The practice room is meant to be used freely, and Luo Xi, what you did was a reasonable use!】041 believes Luo Xi is completely innocent.

"You're right, I'll buy him something to thank him when I have the chance."

Having convinced himself, Luo Xi quickly returned to his dormitory and finished washing up while his roommates were still asleep before going downstairs.

When Luo Xi arrived at the lobby on the first floor, the staff were still setting up. They had set up two black raffle boxes with the "My Favorite Treasure 101" logo on them. Cameras were set up on the stairs next to the raffle box table. Luo Xi guessed that some of her scenes might be included in the show's filming today, so she had to be careful with her facial expressions. Making the right expression at the right time might also be included in the show as a reaction.

Although the probability is not high.

After a long wait, the trainees arrived one after another and were instructed by the staff to line up in several long rows. Standing among these young and handsome boys, Luo Xi finally saw all 300 contestants for the first time.

Lu Yun, with his striking red hair, walked down the street with one person in each arm. He greeted Luo Xi as he passed by. Liu Jibai, who was sitting very close to Luo Xi, and Gu Minxing and Li Longxuan, who arrived late, were all being filmed by cameras.

There were also many people who I hadn't seen before but who had a special star quality. Luo Xi checked their online information one by one.

"Child stars who have acted in movies, top students who returned from overseas universities, skateboarding stars who have crossed over into other fields, second-generation stars whose parents are famous singers, band members, trainees for ten years... Are you kidding me! The only one here without a resume is myself!"

[Sigh... a character development system, huh...]

Before Luo Xi could say anything, the staff who had finished counting the number of people began to speak.

"Okay, now that everyone is here, listen carefully to my arrangements. They are all very important, so please listen carefully."

"The qualifying selection is tomorrow. Considering that there are 300 people, the qualifying selection will be recorded in batches. According to the teams you filled out earlier, there are a total of 92 teams. The recording order will be determined by drawing lots. The recording time is four days, from Thursday, June 27th to Sunday, June 30th."

"More specific schedules will be sent in the group message. Please pay attention and do not be late! Do not be like today. You must arrive early and not be on time! This is a formal large-scale shoot. Lighting, photography, and makeup times are all scheduled and cannot wait for you. You will be liable for any losses caused by your personal reasons."

"To be fair, we will now use a collective lottery. You will each choose your own performance time, and the team members can discuss and send a representative to draw lots."

"The first box contains the day number, from 1 to 4. Whichever number you draw indicates the day of the recording. The second box contains the number, which indicates your performance order for the day, from 1 to 23. After you've finished your makeup, you'll be waiting in the dressing room. When it's your turn, you'll be ready to go on stage. Any questions?"

"Can the two parties voluntarily switch the order?" someone asked.

"No changes allowed. Whichever day you draw, that's the day; whatever number you draw, that's the number. Register immediately after the draw. Any other questions?"

Seeing that everything was in order, the staff asked everyone to line up and prepare for the lottery.

Luo Xi felt a little uneasy.

She had to draw lots. Oh no, she always had terrible luck with lotteries.

【Rosie, have you forgotten? We have lucky draw items! Use them, and we'll definitely get a good time later.】

"That's right!"

Luo Xi immediately opened the warehouse and clicked to use [Lucky Guy].

Her attribute panel appeared at the very bottom.

The entry includes phrases like "Lucky Star (30 minutes)".

Luo Xi calmed down and watched with a smile as the people in front of her began to draw lots. Many people complained, "Is there really a fourth day in this box?"

"I really hope we can draw number 4," a whisper came from behind Rosie.

"I'd prefer to draw the third day."

The voices sounded familiar. Luo Xi turned her head and saw that it was indeed Liu Jibai. He was standing very close to a boy whose arm was linked with Liu Jibai's. The height difference between the two created a "good-looking" couple vibe.

The boy had fair and radiant cheeks, and a sweet and lovely appearance. He was rather short, and Luo Xi hadn't even noticed him at first.

"041, search!"

At Luo Xi's command, 041 immediately took a picture and scanned the image, instantly sending out the information.

An Kexin, affiliated with Book Of Boys/BOB Entertainment, is one of BOB's most popular members, ranking third in last year's general election. BOB employs a graduation-system training model for large male idol groups, with each cohort featuring 100 to 200 members. In recent years, BOB's influence has been steadily increasing, showing a trend of replacing Mexican and Japanese entertainment as one of the top five entertainment groups.

"...Don't you think the fourth day is particularly unlucky?" Liu Jibai said, looking down.

"Huh? But my lucky number is 4." An Kexin frowned and struggled seriously.

Cute, and in a way that's endearingly clumsy. This guy must have a lot of "mommy fans," Luo Xi thought.

When it was Rosie's turn, she was asked to sign in on the queue form first.

The table shows the teams that were previously tallied. Some people will look for teammates to form teams, or trainees from the same company will choose to perform together. Luo Enxi is alone, so she registered as a solo artist.

Next came the drawing of lots, which was probably the luckiest draw of Luo Xi's life. Just as she wished, she drew number 4 and number 23.
