Princess is Glamorous in Modern Day

Chapter 371: Stunning the Crowd in the Finals!

Everyone was speculating about the relationship between this mysterious Oriental woman and Prince Garo.

Although Xia Wanyuan felt that this person was really persistent, the World Music Competition was broadcasted live globally. Xia Wanyuan took into account the face of both parties and nodded slightly.

“Thank you,”

A smile flashed across Prince Garo’s face before he walked into the church under everyone’s suspicious gazes.

[ Squeeze, I’m here. Why are there so many people watching this year’s live broadcast? ]

[ Don’t you think that the way this prince looks at Xia Wanyuan is a little… ]

[ I realized that Xia Wanyuan could enter the music competition probably because of Prince Garo? ]

[ The person in front is really disabled and determined. She’s blind and deaf, but she still came to watch the live broadcast. The officials have released all the competition videos. Anyone can tell that Xia Wanyuan relied on her ability, okay? ]

The order of the finals’ performances was completely disrupted. Xia Wanyuan had coincidentally drawn the tenth and was the last to go on stage.

The other contestants were more or less a little nervous, but Xia Wanyuan was relatively calm. She found a seat by the window and listened to the music of the contestants who had already gone on stage.

The live-stream switched to the church, and everyone’s attention was attracted by the performer.

Of the ten contestants, only three were women, and other than Xia Wanyuan, the other two were gathered and discussing.

“Hey, do you know what that Chinese person plays?”

“I think it’s an ancient zither. I’ve never seen such an instrument before. I heard that she plays it pretty well.”

“Hmph, what right does a Chinese have to participate in Country Ore’s competition? What good music can their country have?” The two of them were originally communicating in small languages from other countries, but a blonde woman suddenly changed her language to English, as if she was saying it deliberately for Xia Wanyuan to hear.

Xia Wanyuan did hear this. She turned around and saw the blonde woman looking at her arrogantly. This was the attitude the advanced Western countries had towards the Chinese.

“Which country are you from?” Xia Wanyuan suddenly asked with a hint of power.

“McCann,” the blonde woman said extremely proudly.

“I’m sorry, I’ve never heard of it. Let me check online.” Xia Wanyuan smiled slightly and lowered her head to search for a word. “Oh, so it’s a small country with only 500 years of history. No wonder you’re so ignorant. Before your ancestors were born, China had already developed for thousands of years.”

“You…” The blonde woman wanted to retort, but she actually knew very little about China. She was momentarily speechless by Xia Wanyuan.

“Alice, don’t argue with her,” another foreign woman advised. “You can’t be angry with her. You have to prepare yourself. You’re about to go on stage. Master Roman is looking forward to it.”

Hearing Master Roman’s name, the blonde woman calmed down. She glared fiercely at Xia Wanyuan, then walked to the side to practice the zither.

Not long after, the blonde woman was called out.

Xia Wanyuan listened to this person’s performance. Although this person was more annoying, he did have some ability. No wonder she was so arrogant.

The evaluation in front was orderly. Soon, all nine contestants appeared.

These nine people each had their own advantages. The audience and the judges enjoyed a feast of music. Most of the reporters had already begun to guess this year’s champion based on the reactions of the judges and audience.

As for Xia Wanyuan? Although she was a dark horse, China had never had much of a presence in the long term. Other than Chinese reporters who were still paying attention to Xia Wanyuan, no one else cared.

The audience in the church had never even heard of the ancient zither playing once, so they did not have much expectations for such a strange Oriental instrument.

“Next, let’s welcome Miss Xia Wanyuan from China.” With the host’s voice, the lights in the venue gradually dimmed, leaving only a small beam on the stage.

A corner of a white dress appeared in front of everyone. The lights gradually climbed, and Xia Wanyuan appeared on the stage.

She was dressed in a white fishtail dress. The broken diamonds on her dress reflected the dazzling light. Her eyebrows were long and her eyes were clear. There was a moment of collective silence.

Master Roman, who was sitting in the middle of the judges’ seats, widened his eyes when he saw Xia Wanyuan. ‘Isn’t this Goddess Muse sent by God?!’

After being amazed, worry appeared in Master Roman’s eyes.

This Oriental woman was too beautiful. And for a musician, making people pay attention to her music was the most important thing. This woman’s shocking beauty would cause people to divert their attention to her appearance. This was not a good thing for her to participate in the competition.

Xia Wanyuan bowed to the judges and audience, then sat in front of the ancient zither.

With a light wave of his hand, an ancient bell-like low hum sounded. With a slight movement of her fingers, another bell sounded. Compared to the one in front, this sound was more Western-like.

The judges were a little stunned. Why have we never heard of this song before?

Xia Wanyuan’s ten fingers danced. The magnificent waves harmonized with a gentle voice and gradually inserted into the solemn and classical Western music.

At this moment, everyone could tell that she had mixed the East and West. These two music, which had a huge difference, were actually mixed exceptionally harmoniously in Xia Wanyuan’s hands.

Everyone seemed to see the red brick and green tiles of the palace facing the solemn cathedral. It was as if they had walked from the south of the spring rain in March to the Kang Bridge that was covered in a continuous drizzle.

In this zither music, people forgot the difference in culture and were intoxicated by the magnificent painting of time and space that Xia Wanyuan had brought people into.

Unknowingly, the playing had stopped, but the people in the church stayed in the extremely beautiful paintings for a long time.

Until Master Roman led the applause.

Only then did everyone react and clap with Master Roman. The applause in the church lasted for a long time.

It was not only those present. Those watching the live broadcast in China were also brought into the artistic mood of the music that Xia Wanyuan had created.

[ I’m so touched. Listen to me. ]

[ This is the first time I feel that Xia Wanyuan is so amazing. Really, how did her hand grow? I think I’m about to see an afterimage. ]

[ I suddenly feel that our country’s music isn’t inferior to foreign music at all. It doesn’t matter even if Xia Wanyuan doesn’t win the championship this time. In my heart, Xia Wanyuan is the champion. ]

[ Boohoo, as a music student, I know too well how weak our Chinese music is internationally. I actually teared up when I saw Xia Wanyuan playing our own instrument and conquering all the audience. ]

Xia Wanyuan was the last contestant and the judges were giving marks. Xia Wanyuan stood on the stage and waited.

Xia Wanyuan casually glanced at them and met a pair of smiling eyes.
