The stage was pitch black when Nan XiangWan walked onto it.
A beam of light shone down and lit up where she stood.
Thunderous applause immediately erupted from the audience below, with countless viewers staring intensely at their screens.
Nan XiangWan's look today was killer!
Her shimmery black flared pants seemed to be made of an unknown material that glinted faintly across its dark surface.
On her feet were a pair of short red-bottomed black suede boots, hugging her legs perfectly to accentuate her flawless lower body lines. Her legs were straight as chopsticks.
On top she wore a flashy multicolored cropped jacket, chaotic hues coming together surprisingly harmoniously.
Several necklaces adorned her chest area, amplifying her aura of luxury.
Her hair was loosely curled, with hints of pale blue blended into the ends.
The overall color scheme of her outfit was dazzling, resembling...
A starry sky!
An exploding nebula!
Another eruption of cheers rang out from below. It's unbelievable how good she looks no matter what she wears.
Comments were also flooding the screen, with fans from all over frantically taking screenshots.
Sitting front and center, Gu Beihuai's eyes also lit up as he raised his phone to snap some shots.
Next to him, Jie Chou was shouting himself hoarse: "Ahhh! Nan XiangWan! Ahhh I love you Nan XiangWan!!!"
His piercing voice made Gu Beihuai almost lose his grip on his phone.
In the spotlight, the big screen lit up with the song title.
"RISE" - League of Legends
This was the theme song of the 2018 Finals, and also from the year the LPL first won the World Championship.
The significance of this song was exceptional!
As shocked eyes watched widely, the accompaniment began.
The aggressive opening immediately pulled viewers onto the battlefield.
After 9 seconds, Nan XiangWan raised the microphone.
[Welcome to the wild, no heroes and villains]
[Welcome to the war we've only begun, so]
Her crisp enunciation was captured the moment the cameras zoomed in. Nan XiangWan stared sharply into the lens, as if channeling the spirit of the Goddess of War!
Goosebumps erupted on countless viewers in front of screens, who hurriedly started posting on Weibo and messaging friends.
Hurry over!
Nan XiangWan is singing a League of Legends battle hymn again!
Come watch!
Jian Da was in the middle of a livestream gaming session when his backend donation alert sounds machine-gunned in.
Jian Da: "Thanks for the 'Nan XiangWan singing a battle song' donation. Thanks for the 'Nan XiangWan singing a League battle song again' donation. Thanks for the 'Fatty hurry watch Nan XiangWan's stage' donation..."
Upon reading this, Jian Da bolted upright with a start.
Jian Da: "Let's go! What's she singing? Ahh she's singing RISE! Brothers let's go watch together!"
His livestream screen hurriedly switched over to The Singer's broadcast, as a wave of gamers charged into the stream.
The backstage crew scrambled to moderate the sudden influx, nearly crashing from the traffic spike.
Director Zhang Rui clutched his heart, still frazzled by the constant ups and downs.
You've barged in, but will you actually stay after she finishes singing?
What if you all leave after Nan XiangWan is done!
The bullet screen comments visibly doubled in real time as the gamer troops entered in spectacular fashion, each person spamming vigorously.
The veteran fans also known as "brick squads" who were already there sprinkled virtual flowers to welcome them, the atmosphere instantly becoming extremely festive.
And at this climactic moment in Nan XiangWan's singing,
her vocals began to soar as the wind machines on stage started up, whipping her hair and outfit dramatically about.
Still holding the uplifted microphone, she displayed absolute mastery over her vocal range!
[This is your moment, now is your time, so]
[Prove yourself and]
[RISE RISE]
[They will remember you]
[RISE]
The audience below started cheering from their seats, thunderous applause erupting continuously.
This song was epic!
Jie Chou had already lost his mind, shouting himself voiceless!
League of Legends was his favorite game.
Nan XiangWan was his favorite celebrity.
What could be more thrilling than combining these two?
Jie Chou's hoarse screams earned him multiple reaction close-ups on the broadcast cameras, which also happened to capture the masked Gu Beihuai sitting next to him.
The bullet screen commentary was also blowing up, the gamers' exhilaration at a fever pitch as they spammed [Prove yourself and].
Many of the veteran fan "brick squads" didn't understand the meaning of those words but went along with the gamer horde anyway, figuring they couldn't be wrong.
Soon the entire screen was flooded by [Prove yourself and]!
Maximum overload!
The adrenaline on stage continued surging.
As Nan XiangWan sang, she strode forward against the wind machines.
Reaching the second climax of the song,
her voice started exploding!
[Make them remember you]
[RISE RISE]
[Pick up your weapon and face it]
[RISE]
She forcefully flipped up the hem of her cropped jacket, the entire thing billowing up to reveal a white tee inside emblazoned largely with the character 极 ('JI')!
With a mere flick of her outer garment, she evoked a warrior unfurling her battle robes.
The stage lights blazed down to illuminate the Goddess of War in this triumphant moment!
......
Jie Chou and the bullet comments completely lost it!
"Ahhh JI! Prove yourself and! Ahhhhhh"
"Nan XiangWan! Ahhh Nan XiangWaaaan!"
Gu Beihuai covered his ears, looking at his childhood friend in horror.
That stage move was pretty cool, and Nan XiangWan whipping up her jacket hem at the climax was sick.
But you all...
Bullet comments:
I'll stomp your grandma! Prove yourself and!
Ji! Forever Ji!
Prove yourself and come at me!
Nan XiangWan you better make me prove myself and!
......
The gamer legions with all manners of fancy titles collectively lost their minds, geometrically multiplying the comment count.
The veteran fan "brick squads" trembled in bewilderment, too scared to ask questions and only able to silently go along with the spam.
Whatever the gamers were spamming, the bricks would copy.
If they dared comment stuff like "Wanbao/Evening Treasure looks so handsome" now, would they be excluded?
The veteran fans were suddenly very anxious!
These fierce gamers were too much to handle. Gotta appease, appease...
Backstage, Director Zhang Rui was also completely confused, failing to comprehend what was going on. So he turned to ask a staff member.
Zhang Rui: "What exactly does 'Prove yourself and' mean?"
But when he turned his head, he saw the staff member excitedly biting his own collar, furiously pumping his fists.
Gamer spirit, gamer soul, let's go!
