This time, for the position evaluation, because they were divided into three different specialized categories, the five mentors were able to specialize in their respective areas, and they would personally go to the practice rooms to guide the trainees in each group.

Jiang Ye's group was in charge of dance mentor Yang Jingjing.

The first two days were for the trainees to learn the choreography themselves.

On the evening of the third day, Yang Jingjing came to check on their learning progress.

Jiang Ye's group hadn't actually practiced the full dance together before, they were almost all practicing separately, they had only briefly gone through the formations a few times.

So, when it came time to show their progress, all the problems that needed to be exposed were exposed.

Yang Jingjing was the kind of mentor who encouraged the trainees, even if she found problems with them, she wouldn't criticize them harshly, she was a gentle type of mentor.

However, even though she had a good temper, when she watched this group perform, her furrowed brows never unfurrowed.

After the four minutes of music ended.

Yang Jingjing paused for a few seconds, trying to find something to praise them for, "Well... Jiang Ye performed very well."

"Shen Zhiyi has also improved a lot, you feel much more outstanding than your last performance, it was a pleasant surprise."

Shen Zhiyi didn't expect to be praised, she was stunned for a moment, then her eyes lit up.

Even though her hair was still wet with sweat and hadn't been brushed back, she still bowed to Yang Jingjing first, "Thank you, mentor."

"But... you still have some problems."

Yang Jingjing hesitated for a moment, but still spoke tactfully, "The most obvious one, I feel like the C-position's stage presence isn't very strong."

"Not very strong" was already being said as politely as possible.

It actually meant that she couldn't carry the C-position at all.

"It's only been three days of practice."

Yang Jingjing's tone was calm, as if she was seeking their opinion, "I think, should we change the C-position?"

Zhen Jia's face turned pale.

She knew that she wasn't as strong as Jiang Ye.

But she didn't expect that when she stood with Jiang Ye and Shen Zhiyi, the contrast would be so obvious to the audience.

Zhen Jia muttered softly in her heart.

She had been secretly paying attention to Jiang Ye during practice.

She did not think Jiang Ye was that amazing.

The C-position often represents the overall momentum of the group.

In the eyes of Yang Jingjing, the observer, even though Shen Zhiyi and Jiang Ye had only practiced for three days, they already had the vibe of this song.

But if the camera focused on Zhen Jia in the middle, it would make the overall atmosphere of the group feel a lot lower.

Zhen Jia clenched her fists, but still whispered, "But Teacher Jingjing, this is my first time being the C-position, and it might be my last time being the C-position."

"Before I leave, I want to make a last effort for myself."

She lowered her eyes, selling the victim role with the utmost skill, "And, there are still a few days left before the performance, I think if I practice hard, I can definitely do well, I won't be any worse than anyone else."

As someone in the entertainment industry, Yang Jingjing also knew the trainees' little tricks.

Who wouldn't want to work hard and get a script of a hard-working comeback for themselves?

And she glanced at Jiang Ye, seeing that she didn't have any objections, she could only say, "Okay."

"Then you guys dance it again, I'll help you correct some problems."

...

Yang Jingjing was a very responsible mentor, she helped them polish the dance for a full hour before leaving.

After she left, Zhen Jia stopped Jiang Ye, who was about to go outside to get some water, "Jiang Ye."

She was a little nervous, but she still mustered up the courage to speak, "Can you help me?"

Jiang Ye tilted her head, "What?"

"I know that my skills are still far behind yours."

"But I really want to do well in this performance, this might be my only chance to stay."

Zhen Jia's voice was very low, "I know you've been helping Shen Zhiyi with the choreography, and she was praised by the mentor."

"So, can you, teach me too?"

Jiang Ye: "..."

None of my business.

If it weren't for the first time they ganged up and got the benefit of controlling the whole group's words during the first performance.

The three of them should have been gone during the first performance, okay?

"Last chance?"

Jiang Ye laughed nonchalantly, "Since you know it's your last chance, you have to seize it, it's better to stay up late and practice hard than to beg others."

"But what you said is true."

"After this performance, you really might not have another stage."

Jiang Ye's expression was serious, her words sincere, "So you have to rely on your own efforts, practice hard, I believe you can do it."

Zhen Jia: "..."

She was about to break down.

If she could practice well, why would she need to beg Jiang Ye?

Jiang Ye clearly knew that she couldn't do it, why wasn't she willing to help her?

She was someone who loved the stage so much, didn't she care about the overall effect of the stage at all?

Thinking about this, Zhen Jia quickly added, "I'm saying this for the sake of our overall stage."

"After all, you wouldn't want to affect the overall effect of the stage because of me, would you?"

"Or Jiang Ye, for the sake of the overall stage effect, why don't you switch positions with me?"

One of Zhen Jia's friends, Qu Jing, said, "I think if you two stand next to Zhen Jia, it might put too much pressure on her, so she can't perform well."

Jiang Ye: "?"

She was shocked.

What kind of white lotus is this, "I'm weak, I'm right, you all have to give in to me"?

She's not even standing in the C-position, now she's even trying to steal her position?

But since they were in front of the camera, Jiang Ye still held back her breath.

"How can that be my problem?"

"And Zhen Jia just said herself that she thinks if she practices hard, she won't be any worse than anyone else before the performance."

Jiang Ye smiled brightly, gave Zhen Jia a thumbs-up gesture, "Work hard, I'll definitely support you mentally."

Zhen Jia: "..."

Next door, in the "Crown" practice room.

The four and a half minutes of music ended, the five trainees were clearly exhausted, they were all panting.

Mu Xingchi nodded slightly, expressionless, "Okay, that's it for today."

The overall coordination of the song was also okay.

Xue Zhihan, as the C-position, performed well.

Although she wasn't the C-position in his mind, she was still second in the initial evaluation, a strong candidate from Class A in the re-evaluation, she could still carry a song.

Xue Zhihan bowed with her teammates, "Thank you, mentor."

Mu Xingchi hummed, put the tablet in his hand on the seat, "If there are no problems, I'll leave."

It was just a pity.

If this song were for Jiang Ye to dance, it would have been even more outstanding.

Mu Xingchi was thinking this when he met Jiang Ye, who was coming back from getting water, right outside the door.

She had a headband on her head, and she looked like she had just come out of practice mode.

Mu Xingchi was stunned, subconsciously calling out to her, "Jiang Ye."

"Hmm?"

Jiang Ye recognized him, politely called out, "Mentor Mu, is there something?"

"I heard you went to 'Listen to the Night Rain'."

Mu Xingchi asked casually, "Why didn't you choose my song? Don't you like it?"

When the program team said that he, as the dance mentor, should provide a piece of work for the trainees' second performance, he first thought about what style would suit Jiang Ye.

He went through his own songs, and he thought she would like a dance with a strong aura like "Crown."

If she came to this group, she would definitely shine.

And he also wanted to see what kind of effect she would have on his song.

But she actually chose a Chinese-style song.

Mu Xingchi didn't know what she was thinking.

Jiang Ye: "..."

How could she explain this?

Mentor, it's because I don't really want to be on the same stage as you.

That would be rude, wouldn't it?

So, Jiang Ye thought for a moment, and simply said, "I want to challenge a new style."

"...Okay."

Mu Xingchi paused, then asked, "So, how's your group's progress?"

Jiang Ye thought for a moment.

Zhen Jia couldn't dance well.

But Shen Zhiyi had practiced for two hours, and her eyes were more confident than before.

Her goal was 80% achieved.

So, Jiang Ye said, "I think it's okay."

Mu Xingchi raised an eyebrow and asked her, "Would it be convenient for me, as a mentor from the next door, to check your progress?"

"...Are you trying to gather intelligence for your group?"

Jiang Ye said, "Just a reminder, this position evaluation is an in-group battle."

"But even if it's an in-group battle, in the end, we have to compare the overall votes for the first place trainee."

Mu Xingchi asked again, "So, is it convenient?"

Jiang Ye: "..."

Could she say it wasn't convenient?

Then would she still want to be in the entertainment industry?

Jiang Ye thought for a moment, after all, it wasn't her losing face.

So, she readily nodded, "Okay."

Zhen Jia couldn't believe that she had just sent away one Yang Jingjing and now another Mu Xingchi had come.

Mu Xingchi wasn't even their group's responsible mentor, what was he doing here?

Zhen Jia reasonably suspected that this was a reinforcement that Jiang Ye had specifically brought in.

Thinking about this, her eyes grew colder when she looked at Jiang Ye.

Before they started performing, Mu Xingchi frowned when he saw their group's formation.

"How did you choose your group's C-position?"

Mu Xingchi looked at Jiang Ye, "Did you give it up willingly?"

Zhen Jia: "..."

What was that supposed to mean?

Jiang Ye said, "No, it was chosen."

Although she didn't say much.

But those four words were very telling.

Mu Xingchi frowned slightly, but still said, "Okay, begin."

...

Mu Xingchi only watched until the end of the first chorus, then he called a stop.

It was brutal, to say the least.

He hadn't seen such a brutal contrast in a long time.

Not to mention the difference in skill, the overall style of the group was not harmonious.

Shen Zhiyi's dance seemed to be polished by Jiang Ye, it clearly had Jiang Ye's style.

So, they were both in the same style.

And Zhen Jia, although standing between them, was completely out of their world.

She was as out of place as if a medieval abstract painting had been added to a Chinese ink painting.

After Mu Xingchi suddenly called a stop, Zhen Jia was panicking.

She frantically comforted herself, it's okay, mentors usually just go through the motions, they won't interfere with the trainees' internal affairs.

Besides, Mu Xingchi wasn't their responsible mentor.

When Yang Jingjing suggested changing the C-position, wasn't she the one who persuaded her?

Thinking about this, Zhen Jia immediately put on a very guilty and self-blaming expression, saying, "Teacher, although my skills are not enough now, I will definitely practice hard, and I will strive to present you with a perfect stage before the performance-"

Jiang Ye: "..."

Here we go again.

She's coming at us again with her familiar skills.

Mu Xingchi interrupted her, "There are only a few days left before the performance. Even if you want to cram, it's impossible."

"So I suggest, directly changing the C-position."

Zhen Jia's eyes widened, she seemed to want to argue for herself, "But-"

"But what but."

Mu Xingchi raised his eyelids, his tone leaving no room for argument, "I said change the C-position, is there any word you don't understand?"
