Chapter 2185 - 2188: Don't Even Think About Bullying My Woman

In an instant, sitting next to Shen Qiang, Gong Ziyi looked at Shen Qiang's domineering gaze and the trace of contemptuous smile at the corner of his mouth, and he only felt like he had fallen into an ice cellar, with the hair on his body standing on end in an instant!

If you want face, in the Cultivation World, I'm the biggest!

Such domineering words made Gong Ziyi, who usually looked down on everyone, feel a sense of threat he had never experienced before.

But just in a moment of distraction, suddenly realizing that the stunning actress Song Weiyin was watching all this through the internet, he instantly became anxious and immediately retorted: "You, Shen Qiang, are quite the big deal. Medicine King, Alliance Hierarch of Heshenghe Pill Alliance, in the Cultivation World, any alchemist who meets you acts as if they're facing a senior from their sect."

"That certainly is impressive, but you, Shen Qiang, don't get carried away. Don't forget, this isn't the Cultivator Conference, but the local TV entertainment channel show for Heavenly Voice Singers, using the studio here. Here, I'm the biggest and I can do as I please."

Shen Qiang laughed, calmly took out his phone, and said, "Mastering concealment among the wild, true hiding is within the city; cultivators exist in the world but remain invisible. It's just like relationships among people, many relatives and friends don't even know a person exists, but perhaps, one day, they will suddenly appear before you."

"It's useless, Shen Qiang. Here, all your methods will be futile because I'm the sponsor of this show. Without me, there would be no show, so no matter what relations you try to use, in the end, it'll just be a joke." Gong Ziyi said confidently.

Shen Qiang laughed and said, "Sometimes I find you very smart, but other times, I think you're very foolish. I, Shen Qiang, have the biggest face in the Cultivation World because I am the Medicine King, with nearly a thousand alchemists under my command, capable of influencing tens of thousands of types of Spiritual Medicine. In these circumstances, if I want someone to do me a small favor, no one will refuse."

"Therefore," Shen Qiang's tone shifted, "you'd better stop, leaving now is still in time, at least, you won't completely lose face in front of Song Weiyin."

Hearing this, Gong Ziyi's expression instantly turned cold, and he said, "Shen Qiang, I've heard a lot of bragging. If you truly have the ability, then use it. If you really can, I, Gong Ziyi, will concede. But if you can't..."

Raising his eyebrow with a cold smile, Gong Ziyi said, "Then I'm sorry, Jinli Qianning's path in the talent show ends here."

Shen Qiang laughed, "Very well, you've given me a chance to test the six degrees of separation theory. I think perhaps, in a few minutes, someone will come to see me."

Gong Ziyi sneered, "Ideals are always full, but just having ideals is not enough to turn the tables here."

"Many times, dreams represent something one can never achieve, but for what can be done, it's not a dream, but everyday life." With that, Shen Qiang smiled, picked up his phone, and casually posted a message in his circle of friends.

Then he sat there calmly watching the singers present their performances.

At this time, the seductive woman who had previously been exchanging glances with Gong Ziyi took the stage.

With an astonishing style, wearing ultra-short shorts, she jumped around on stage, still somewhat resembling a singer.

As for the song title, Shen Qiang didn't remember.

The lyrics were a mix of Chinese and English.

Thankfully, the rhythm was lively, and her voice was decent.

Coupled with enticing dance moves akin to Korean girl groups, stirring and seductive, it was quite a spectacle.

Quickly, the song finished.

The three judges, who had already been hinted at, began to seriously comment.

"There are many techniques in singing which require high demands on vocal skill, from vocalization to strength needs to be precise; it is difficult, but she completed it perfectly!"

"A good singer lets the audience feel the penetrating power of their voice. This is especially challenging for dancers, but she did it well!"

"Although stage presence isn't a direct manifestation of singing skills, it reflects a singer's ability to command the stage from the side. A song's performance is not just music; the audience evaluates from both a visual and auditory perspective, so her performance was stunning!"

The words of the three judges made Shen Qiang smile.

After all, what they said were all stock phrases, applicable to any song.

Without such ability, thinking of becoming a judge would be impossible.

Even though it's cliche, the audience still responded with thunderous applause.

Then it was time for the voting segment.

During the host's vigorous canvassing, this woman's votes were extremely high; out of four hundred votes in the audience, she received three hundred and twenty.

Such an achievement made the woman exceptionally proud.

And made Gong Ziyi even more arrogant.

"Did you see that? Shen Qiang, did you think I was the kind of fool who only knows how to stir up trouble? She graduated from a top domestic music college, and while not as good-looking as Jinli Qianning or Song Weiyin, she's clearly a beauty."

"Not only can she sing, but also dance. After all, it's all entertainment. Her type is clearly the most popular, so even without me, Gong Ziyi, using any means, she can easily win the championship of this local TV entertainment channel's talent show."

Shen Qiang laughed and said, "That's because you haven't heard Qianning sing. Once you've heard her, you'll never say such things again."

Gong Ziyi sneered, "Qianning is a Sea Demon, obsessed with music, so singing well is not surprising. But even if Qianning sings exceptionally well, it's of no use. I said she won't make it into the top sixteen, and she won't. Just like I said Shen Qiang won't be able to make a movie, you're destined not to."

In an instant, Shen Qiang's expression turned cold, "Indeed, under the meddling of a scoundrel like you, the film company did reject inviting me to make a movie, but so what, Song Weiyin has already fallen in love with me. Whether I make a movie is no longer important."

"As for you, putting so much effort into causing trouble, your purpose is probably not simply to confront and humiliate me, right?"

Hearing this, Gong Ziyi laughed, "Talking with a smart person is a very pleasant thing. Since you asked, I won't hide it. Watching those poorly staged performances for so long, my purpose is simple, just to let you and Song Weiyin know that I can elevate her, and I can undermine her. If she doesn't stay with me, Qianning is her model."

"Forget the big movies, even if she wants to perform on rural small stages, without my permission, she won't have the chance."

Shen Qiang nodded upon hearing this, "Understood. You came here for the real purpose of using Qianning's situation as a warning to intimidate Song Weiyin, a truly despicable and brilliant tactic. However, you seem to have overlooked one issue."

With a cold smile, Shen Qiang looked at him and said, "That is, as long as I, Shen Qiang, do not nod, no one should dream of bullying my woman."
