Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
“Holy f*ck! The winner is genuinely Liu Dabao!”
“He defeated five main drawcards, including even Gu Qiu! Is he a demon?!”
“Where is this freak from? He’s still only a trainee!”
“Have you guys realized… The number of his votes…”
One of the spectators couldn’t help but roar in anger and disbelief, “Gasp… Over twenty-six thousand… This is f*cking fake, right?! You’re telling me that almost half of the spectators voted for him? This is fake, right?!”
However, several of their brothers raised their hands in admission.
“I voted for him.”
“I also voted for him.”
“Sorry… the chicken was truly too fragrant…”
Some of the spectators were wearing expressions of guilt and remorse as they tearfully admitted to voting for Liu Dabao.
The spectator who had roared in anger was absolutely stupefied.
Not only him, but countless drawcards and main drawcards were also stunned by this result. In fact, even Gu Qiu was slightly astonished.
She was feeling dazed as she stared at the man on the giant screen. Her dainty mouth was slightly agape, and her eyes were completely unblinking. She had never felt this astonished since beginning her career at the Red Ink Tavern.
“What kind of freak is this?!” the Red Empress exclaimed as she slapped the table before her. She was wearing an expression of absolute disbelief as she stared at the man on the giant screen.
She conceded that the cooking dance was a groundbreaking innovation, and she conceded that the chicken had indeed been extremely fragrant. However, wasn’t this number of votes a bit too exaggerated?
“This has got to be fake… This number of votes… How is this possible?” Jin Feihong’s eyes were even larger than brass bells as he stared at the man on the screen in shock and disbelief.
He had only received slightly more than one thousand votes, yet Liu Dabao had actually received over twenty-six thousand votes?! This was more than twenty times that of what he had received! What kind of concept was this?
Not only had Liu Dabao come first, but he had done so with a crushing number of votes!
Since the inception of the Night of Red Ink, such an event had never occurred before.
“In first place is… the Red Ink Tavern’s trainee, Liu Dabao!
“He obtained victory with a total of 26,720 votes!
“He’s successfully won the Night of Red Ink’s title of Flower Owner! Congratulations!”
Sister Hong was trembling uncontrollably as she shouted Liu Dabao’s name!
She knew that this was definitely a historical moment.
This was a stunning yet magnificent moment.
An Lin walked onto the stage under the watchful gazes of the tens of thousands of spectators. His expression was calm and tranquil as he stood before the rest of the performers and slightly bowed in acknowledgment to the spectators.
He had already anticipated this result, so he wasn’t all that surprised. Rather, he felt as if a huge weight had been lifted off his shoulders when he finally saw the result. He couldn’t help but feel a sense of relief.
“Congratulations, Liu Dabao.”
At this moment, a soft and gentle voice sounded next to An Lin’s ears.
An Lin turned around, only to see a beautiful woman in a white Daoist robe silently smiling at him.
An Lin was slightly astonished. Was this the first time that Gu Qiu had spoken with someone else alone?
“Thank you,” An Lin replied respectfully.
Hei Xuan, Ice Wolf, the Cloud Maiden, and the other performers also congratulated An Lin.
Meanwhile, Jin Ling’er pouted as she placed her hands on her hips and said, “Humph! You only received so many votes because you bribed the audience!”
An Lin was deeply alarmed. Someone had actually exposed the essence of his victory!
He turned around to look at Jin Ling’er.
Jin Ling’er was slightly flustered by An Lin’s gaze, but she still wasn’t willing to back down. “What? You’re not happy? You think that I’m wrong?”
“Was my chicken fragrant?” An Lin replied with a question of his own.
Jin Ling’er was completely caught off guard by this question.
Moreover, she couldn’t go against her true feelings, so she could only open her mouth with great difficulty and reply, “Yes…”
An Lin smiled and said, “That’s my skill, understand?”
Jin Ling’er’s face flushed red, and she pouted unhappily as she turned her gaze elsewhere.
Although she didn’t want to admit it, she understood that An Lin had indeed claimed victory through his own skills. If he didn’t possess that skill, then there was no way he could have claimed victory!
“Next, please welcome the Red Empress, the Regional Leader of the eighth region, to personally crown Liu Dabao as the victor!” Sister Hong’s voice echoed around the theatre again.
Celestial music started to play.
A rain of petals fell from the sky.
A stunningly beautiful woman held a floral wreath that was glowing with divine light as she walked onto the stage.
An Lin was finally able to see the ruler of the eighth region from close proximity. This was the most powerful being in the entire eighth region. Moreover, An Lin’s power was currently sealed, so he was actually unable to determine the true cultivation base of the Red Empress. Her cultivation base could only be described as unfathomable and profound.
“Congratulations, Liu Dabao.
“You’re the Flower Owner of tonight, and you were the most dazzling performer during this Night of Red Ink!”
The Red Empress’ beauty could be described as soul-stirring. This was especially the case when she smiled.
She personally placed the floral wreath that was glowing with divine light onto An Lin’s head.
Countless fireworks instantly exploded around the Red Ink Tavern, illuminating the giant city and leaving trails of beautiful lights in the night sky.
“Congratulations to trainee Liu Dabao for receiving the highest number of votes and becoming the Flower Owner during this Night of Red Ink.” The Red Empress voice traveled throughout the entire eighth region.
The millions of residents were transfixed with shock as if they had misheard something.
Trainee?
Flower Owner?
What was going on in this world?
The greatest honor belonged to Liu Dabao.
From tonight onward, the name Liu Dabao was destined to spread throughout the entire eighth region.
Dreamy petals started to drift down onto the theatre of the Red Ink Tavern.
Everything appeared so beautiful and romantic.
Meanwhile, An Lin could detect a peculiar energy fluctuation from the floral wreath on his head.
This was the aura of the Heavenly Dao!
He was exhilarated by this discovery.
Thunderous applause continued to boom throughout the theatre.
The Red Empress didn’t leave the stage after crowning An Lin the victor. Instead, she remained on the stage and said to the audience, “There’s still an important matter that I have to announce.
“The Red Ink Tavern has a very special rule.
“That is, a performer will be directly promoted to a main drawcard of the Red Ink Tavern if they receive more than twice the votes of the highest-scoring main drawcard during a night where there are main drawcards performing!
“Now, Liu Dabao has received 26,720 votes, which is more than twice that of Gu Qiu’s 11,968 votes. Thus, I hereby announce that trainee Liu Dabao is officially promoted to a main drawcard of the Red Ink Tavern!”
Boom!
This announcement was like a clap of thunder that brought everyone to their senses.
Indeed, they had almost forgotten about this rule because it had been so long since it had last been used. Thinking about it carefully now, trainee Liu Dabao had actually emerged victorious in the face of such vicious competition during the Night of Red Ink. Moreover, he had even received more than twice the number of votes of Gu Qiu. Just how difficult was this feat?
Liu Dabao had actually succeeded?!
Freakish! Absolutely freakish!
“Liu Dabao!”
“Liu Dabao!”
“Liu Dabao!”
The spectators started to shout Liu Dabao’s name.
In the beginning, there were only a few thousand spectators shouting his name. However, in the end, the tens of thousands of spectators all started to loudly shout his name.
They adored and admired An Lin’s performance from the bottom of their hearts.
Their deafening cheers converged into a wave that soared through the Red Ink Tavern and into the heavens.
An Lin smiled happily as he stood in the center of the stage and listened to these deafening cheers and squeals.
At this moment, he knew that he had succeeded.
He had successfully become a main drawcard of the Red Ink Tavern!
