Chapter 572 Hey, That’s Not Bad

‘Show face?’

‘That’s impossible. I’m a pretty host[1].’

Ye Lingchen had already vetoed the decision in his heart.

He would not intentionally expose his own ident.i.ty. If he waited for the right moment, the exposure of his ident.i.ty might bring him another explosive gain in popularity points.

However, he answered differently. “Thank you Director Feng for your appreciation. However, I would like to keep my ident.i.ty a secret for now.”

“Is that so…” Feng Xiaofeng was taken aback as he did not expect Ye Lingchen to reject him. That was the Spring Festival Gala!

At the same time, he felt that it was a pity.

Although the Spring Festival Gala was the biggest program in the country, it also required hype, one at the highest level in order to befit the name of Spring Festival Gala. That was why Feng Xiaofeng thought of Singer Y.

Having Singer Y reveal his ident.i.ty would definitely be a big hit.

By then, the Spring Festival Gala might create a TV rating record.

It was all because of the uniqueness of the Spring Festival Gala that they needed better results and distinguis.h.i.+ng features.

“However, I have someone to recommend to Director Feng,” Ye Lingchen suddenly said with a wink.

“Oh? Who will that be?”

“Chen Xiaoyan.” Ye Lingchen suddenly remembered that beautiful and hardworking young woman, hence he recommended her.

“Chen Xiaoyan?” Feng Xiaofeng’s voice seemed a little awkward.

It was undeniable that Chen Xiaoyan was quite a hit that year. However, the reason she was popular was solely because of Ye Lingchen. Moreover, her behavior was rather odd. She had an unapproachable air, especially toward other male investors. She would always stay away from them and stayed on high alert.

That was why she lacked chances to be on stage. Furthermore, she had not come up with a new song for quite some time, which led to her declining popularity.

Although she met the requirements to be on stage, it was at the bare minimum. Under normal circ.u.mstances, Chen Xiaoyan would not be picked.

“I will write a song for her.”

It was just a simple statement from Ye Lingchen, but it immediately lent Chen Xiaoyan a lot more weight in Feng Xiaofeng’s considerations, elevating her importance.

It was proven that Singer Y’s songs were all great works. As long as news of Singer Y appears during the Spring Festival Gala, then the expectations would be there. If the songs turned out to be a hit, then the reputation of the Spring Festival Gala would grow as well.

In an instant, Feng Xiaofeng’s mind was made. He agreed in a deep voice, “Sure! However, we need to have a look at the song you’ve written first before making the decision.”

“No problem.” Ye Lingchen smiled cooly.

In just one phone call, they made their candidate decision for the Spring Festival Gala. That was something that n.o.body would have believed even if told. From that, one could see the power of Ye Lingchen’s influence, and that was just his ident.i.ty as Singer Y!

After the call, Ye Lingchen gave the matter no further thoughts. It was just a song, a simple task for him.

The most important issue at the moment was the lucky draw. Other issues would have to be pushed aside!

He once again s.h.i.+fted his attention to the system menu and checked out his skills one by one.

First was the advanced skill list, which had Parkour (Advanced) in it.

Next was the three intermediate skills. Eight Extremities Brute Training (Intermediate), Arhat’s Fist Force (Intermediate), and Animal Taming (Intermediate).

After that was the basic skills. Cultivation (Basic), Dragon-Catcher Hand (Basic), Bird Language (Basic), Diatribe (Basic), Gastronomy (Basic), Heavenly Sound (Basic), Transfiguration (Basic), Aura Divination (Basic), Water Spirit Const.i.tution (Basic), Wood Spirit Const.i.tution (Basic), Formation (Basic), Dragon Seeking Formula (Basic), Poison Immunity (Basic), Bug Language (Basic), Touch of Death (Basic).

A grand total of 15 basic skills, each a magnificent skill on its own.

As for the skills with maxed proficiencies, there were too many. Biology, Chemistry, Calligraphy, Ball Mastery, Western Medicine, Deutsch, Fas.h.i.+on Design, Russian, French, and more.

With that many skills, Ye Lingchen was having difficulty deciding.

He was someone with over 15 million popularity points. How should he go about the lucky draw?

Although there were two martial arts out of the three intermediate skills, the chances to hit Animal Taming was too high. ‘Maybe…I should get a few more intermediate skills first?’

‘At the moment, quite a number of basic skills have potential. Why not just upgrade a few of them into intermediate?’

With the decision made, Ye Lingchen stopped hesitating and rubbed his palms together.

One million popularity points were used for the intermediate skill lucky draw!

A golden glow s.h.i.+ned brightly in Ye Lingchen’s eyes as it pa.s.sed over the basic skills at high speed. It also caused Ye Lingchen’s breathing to become increasingly labored.

Eventually, it became slower, and slower.

Ye Lingchen’s heart raced as he held his breath.

Ding!

Along with a crisp sound, the glow finally stopped!

‘Wood Spirit Const.i.tution?’

‘Hey, that’s not bad!’

Ye Lingchen’s mouth curled upwards, finally feeling relieved.

Although Cultivation was not picked, Wood Spirit Const.i.tution was similar to it seeing that it directly modified his physical traits, which was as good as his apt.i.tude. Moreover, it was a very practical skill as it would allow him to improve the rate of plant growth.

‘Wood Spirit Const.i.tution (Intermediate): Unique const.i.tution with wooden properties. You can now control plants.’

Along with the changes to his physical traits, Ye Lingchen felt his body turn lighter. He could feel all the pores on his body expand as they naturally took in the spiritual energy in the air around him.

Moreover, he could easily identify the spiritual energy’s element.

His gaze fell upon the scenery outside. The trees and gra.s.s were seemingly looking at him. Ye Lingchen subconsciously raised his hand and the tree nearest to him started moving along. After that, a single leaf fell from the tree, landing directly in his palm!

Ye Lingchen’s eyes snapped to attention. ‘I can control plants like this?!’

Taking a deep breath, he slowly closed his eyes. In an instant, his entire consciousness was projected into a unique condition.

It was as though his body had turned into a plant. His thoughts extended to the plants around him, feeling everything they felt. ‘This tree has bugs, that gra.s.s lacks water, that flower there is dancing with the bee…’

It felt like he had the vision of G.o.d as all the information from the plants within a 500-meter circ.u.mference filled his head.

‘Amazing!’

‘This const.i.tution is too powerful!’

Ye Lingchen had a feeling that his Wood Spirit Const.i.tution would get stronger as his Cultivation level grew.

‘It seems my luck is quite good. If that’s the case…let’s continue!’

Throwing in another one million popularity points, the golden glow sprung into action once again.

Due to the previous experience, Ye Lingchen’s mind was a lot calmer this time. He watched it in silence.

Ding!

Another crisp ring sounded as the glow finally stopped on Formation!

‘Formation (Intermediate): You can now set some basic formations.’

It changed from entry-level formations to basic formations. At the same time, a torrent of information rushed into Ye Lingchen’s mind uncontrollably…

During one of her streams, she forgot to censor her face while claiming that she was a pretty girl despite being a middle-aged lady that was not as visually appealing as her fans thought her to be.
