From Thug to Idol: Transmigrating to a Survival Show

Chapter 660 Only One of the Three

Mei's voice was a little bit hoarse, especially with how much she practiced.

However, it was actually quite fitted for her part since it was lower compared to the rest of the song.

Moreover, her face being illuminated on the large LED screen was also a great helpi n people perceiving her voice to be more beautiful than it actually was.

Or maybe, their expectations were a bit too low, so hearing her do a decent job was already enough to make them amazed.

Nonetheless, Mei's part, although short, stood out among the rest of the team.

Meanwhile, June, whose eyes were focused on Mei Ling couldn't help but watch with a slightly agape mouth.

"Is this possible?" he muttered as he stared at her stats.

He was sure that they were still pretty low during the signal song mission. However, why was she now a C in almost all of her talent aspects?

Her visual aspect had also increased to an SS, which was ridiculous for a trainee who hasn't even debuted yet.

"Why is she improving so fast?" June whispered.

Does she also have a system of her own?

[...]

June froze with the thought.

Was it really possible?

Before he could ponder about it further, their performance had already come to an end, and he was snapped back to reality with the loud cheers of the audience.

They had the loudest cheers of the night, and rightfully so. They all stood out in their own way without compromising the team's cohesiveness.

At the end of it all, the audience had a hard time choosing between the two subteams.

However, it seemed like they were still able to make up their mind in the end.

Then, the last performers of the night finally graced the stage. Their cheers were at par with the last team. However, what was the most notable was that majority of the cheers were for Jeemin.

She smiled at the audience, and it caused a frenzy among them. Similar to Mei, Heemin already had a lot of fans. She was able to get the top spot during the very first voting, and she was also the trainee with the highest skill index.

She was definitely the trainee with the most fans on the show. However, Mei was the trainee that people talked about the most—may that be negative of positive.

As expected, Heemin's group did a great job in their performance. The teamwork was evident, but it was also obvious that Heemin was the star of the show.

In the end, it was already predicted for her team to take the first place, which made the other trainees dejected.

With that, June went back to the stage to bid farewell to the audience. They cheered once more with June's presence.

"Once again, thank you all for coming tonight. The winners will be revealed to the trainees tonight, but you will only be able to see it this Friday!" he teased, making the audience groan in frustration.

"I want to know!"

"It's between Heemin's and Mina's team, honestly."

"Yeah, I think more people voted for Heemin's team, though."

"That's not true. Mina's team has more 'famous' trainees. Meanwhile, Heemin is the only 'famous' trainee in her team."

"Well, Heemin still has the most amount of fans, so I definitely see their team winning."

With the crowd's speculations riveting through the air, June finally made his way down the stage and into the results room, where the trainees were already waiting.

They took sharp breaths as June made his way inside, holding the envelope that contained the result of the mission.

He silently made his way to the stage while gripping on the envelope, somehow feeling nervous about the results, too.

He wanted to reach three objectives for tonight:

1. Have Mei's team win.

2. Have her subteam lose.

3. Have all of June's skills remain safe and even have the chance to upgrade one of them.

"Congratulations, everyone, for finishing your very first mission!" June exclaimed.

The girls cheered, although their nervousness was still evident in their voices.

"First of all, I want to say that you all did a decent job considering the short amount of time that you've been on the show . However, with that, you can only aim to go forward. You still have a long way to go," June continued.

"In this journey, all of our actions will yield results, whether this result is positive or negative now lies in my hands," he said, showing them the envelope.

The girls whispered among each others once again, some of them holding onto their teammates in their respective subteams.

"Let's start off with the overall winner first," June said, opening the envelope and silently reading the first cue card.

He placed the mic on his lips, ready to announce the winner, but froze when he saw who it was.

He didn't know how long he stood there, but in the end, the trainees were already cursing him inside their minds for being so good at keeping the tension.

Then, June cleared his throat, feeling like it couldn't be helped.

"The overall winner for the team kill mission is—"

"Hate Sick Men!" he exclaimed.

Heemin's team jumped in joy as soon as they heard their song being called. They were flashed on the screen, and their happiness was evident in their faces.

Mina, who actually had lots of hope to win, merely nodded to herself as she tried to accept the results.

It seemed like their collective popularity was still not enough to throw Heemin off.

Nonetheless, it was revealed that they were the team with the second highest votes, which consoled her a little bit.

June pursed his lips as he flipped to the next cue card.

It seemed like his first objective of the night already went down the drain.

At that point, he was sure that his skills were going to downgrade. It would be the very first instance wherein he would fail after Fu became his system, and June couldn't help but feel upset about it.

However, he assured himself that it didn't really matter since he was still going to be skilled nonetheless.

With that, June sighed and finally announced the winning subteam for each team in chronological order. Almost all of the winners had been predictable thus far, so June was already certain that Mei's team was going to lose.

However, as he got to the ninth announcement, he felt like a bucket of cold water was being poured all over his body.

"The winner for Fly High, Butterfly is—"

Was this even possible?

Even from the audience's perspective, June felt like the other subteam did a much better job.

"The red team," he announced.

The trainees all gasped in surprise as they turned to their team. Meanwhile, Mina looked down at her shoes, which reflected her team color—blue.

June pursed his lips before sighing in disappointment.

Well, at least one of his objectives was fulfilled.
