Translator: Legge Editor: Legge

Saturday.

Evening.

The third episode of King of Masked Singers was about to be broadcast.

After the last two episodes\' build up, the show was getting more and more popular. Those who had not noticed or viewers who were not optimistic about the show at first were now attracted to it with the massive amount of talk the show had generated. Coupled with Li Yu revealing himself before this episode was recorded, the discussions on Weibo had exploded since yesterday after everyone knew that he was competing in the show. With today\'s official broadcast, it had pushed the show to its highest point on the trending lists!

"It\'s starting!"

"I\'m so looking forward to it!"

"My Brother Li Yu!"

"Someone mentioned that Li Yu got eliminated?"

"Damn, you really believe that?"

"Haha, it must be a rumor."

"Even if Brother Li Yu did not get crowned as Masked King, he definitely wouldn\'t get eliminated. Are you stupid? How can you believe that?"

"That\'s right. There isn\'t even anyone who can eliminate as a talented singer as Li Yu on this stage, unless it\'s someone on the level of Zhang Yuanqi, Chen Guang, or Fan Wenli!"

However, when they saw that Petal Shower won her match against Li Yu, many people went crazy for a moment. It was totally unbelievable!

"What?"

"Goddammit!"

"Petal Shower won?"

"This…"

"There\'s really no doubt about her victory!"

"Petal Shower must have been on adrenaline today!"

"Uh, I think I know who Petal Shower is. At the very least, it should only be a select few candidates!"

"Petal Shower\'s singing was wonderful!"

"Sunflower cannot be blamed for this loss."

Still, there was no one who felt that Li Yu would get eliminated.

Then, it was The Clown\'s turn to take to the stage.

"\'Life\'s More Than the Grind\'?"

"Pfft, isn\'t this face smacking?"

"Fuck!"

"Damn, The Clown is way too mean!"

"Yeah, Li Yu just lost, but he\'s kicking him when he\'s down?"

"Aiyo, I\'m so entertained by this song!"

"Does he need to be so ruthless?"

But they had yet to find out that the even more ruthless event was about to place.

The Clown admitted defeat!

A lot of the people were dumbfounded by this decision!

"Admit defeat?"

"What\'s he planning?"

"Oh my god!"

...

Within the music industry.

At a recording company.

Many people\'s expressions changed.

"The Clown intends to go into the elimination round?"

"H-Has he gone crazy?"

"He hasn\'t gone crazy! He wants to verse Li Yu!"

"Isn\'t that crazy? He has no chance of winning against him!"

"Unfortunately, he already did."

"How do you know?"

"Yesterday\'s industry news. I heard that Li Yu\'s hand was forced to the point that he didn\'t even take off his mask and left the stage in dejection!"

"That\'s impossible!"

"I don\'t believe it either. Could it be a rumor?"

"Hur hur, just wait and see then."

...

At a talent agency.

Today, many people were watching King of Masked Singers while working overtime. It was not that they were lazing around, but that they had been tasked by their boss to do so. Ever since the premiere, this show was no longer treated as just a simple entertainment show. It had become an industry benchmark and a case study to follow.

"When did such a person pop up in the music scene?!"

"Who is this Clown guy?"

"Can we sign him?"

"How mysterious!"

"We don\'t even know which celeb he is!"

"I\'ve already contacted some of my friends at Beijing Television, but their mouths are all zipped shut and they won\'t reveal any information. It\'s possible to guess who the other singers are as there are some likely matches, but there are zero details when it comes to The Clown! If we want to sign him from his previous agency, we\'ll have to establish his identity first!"

...

On Weibo.

"\'I Really Hate You\'?"

"Li Yu has finally sung a Cantonese song!"

"Yeah, he\'s finally used his trump card!"

"Haha, he\'s definitely going to win!"

"The Clown was too confident. He should be dumbstruck now, right?"

"Li Yu sang well!"

"Yeah, Li Yu performed well!"

"Ah, it\'s The Clown\'s turn!"

"What\'s this song about?"

"Fuck! \'I Really Love You\'? Is he trying to contradict Li Yu?"

"When was there ever such a song? Is this yet another one of his originals? Where did he get so many originals! Who could\'ve written all those songs for him?"

"Oh my god!"

"It\'s a Cantonese song!"

"It\'s a fucking Cantonese song!"

"The Clown is competing against Li Yu with a Cantonese song?"

"Heavens!"

"Is he crazy?"

"When it comes to singing Cantonese songs, who can beat Li Yu?"

"Yeah, how many years has Li Yu been singing Cantonese songs? Does he think it\'s funny to do the same? Isn\'t this a joke?"

"Stop chatting. Listen to it!"

"This song…this song…"

It suddenly went quiet online!

When the viewers listened The Clown\'s performance on television, they were all stared and their jaws dropped!

"It\'s great!"

"Holy shit, it\'s so good I\'m crying!"

"Please permit me to say \'I really love you\'?"

"This singing…my fuck!"

"Can, can the song be any more amazing than this?"

"It\'s time to vote!"

"He won!"

"The Clown won!"

"Li Yu really got eliminated? Fuck, I still thought that that was a rumor!"

"Is The Clown even human?"

"There\'s really no question about him winning!"

"By performing this song, how can he expect anyone to compete against him?"

"He can\'t really be a Hong Kong singer, right?"

"Uh, your home\'s in the northeast? On the Songhua River? He said that he is a northeasterner?"

"Pfft, do you guys really believe that?"

"This dude is full of bullshit!"

There was an explosion of comments on Weibo!

The results of the third episode\'s competition exceeded everyone\'s expectations. In no time, the Internet was filled with discussions related to this episode of King of Masked Singers. Whether it was on Weibo or the forums, they were similarly flooded with messages!

...

The next day.

The viewership rating of King of Masked Singers was out!

The third episode had once again ushered in a significant increase to the viewership rating and was steadily climbing!

The staff of Beijing Television were bursting with joy. Meanwhile, the King of Masked Singers program team staff were just as excited, and their celebratory cheers could even be heard in the hallway outside their office!

The Top Chinese Music Chart was also updated!

On this day, the Top Chinese Music Chart was once again dominated by King of Masked Singers!

#1: The Clown\'s "I Really Love You."

#2: Petal Shower\'s "That\'s Me."

#3: The Clown\'s "Life\'s More Than the Grind."

From the fourth to the twelfth place, more than half of the songs were from King of Masked Singers.

Although Petal Shower became the third episode\'s Masked King and it was her first time getting the title, the number one song on the Top Chinese Music Chart still belonged to The Clown. In fact, it was far ahead based on the statistics. "I Really Love You" had even shot up directly to the fourth spot on the monthly chart, with the second and third spots also belonging to The Clown at this moment. They were "Wild Rose" and "Opera," respectively, both of which had charted for more than a week now. According to this momentum, there was no doubt that "I Really Love You" would take the place of the monthly number one. It might even storm onto the annual chart! Petal Shower followed closely behind. No one else on the entire chart was a match for these "masked series" of singers!

It was too popular!

The show, its singers, and the singers\' songs had all become extremely popular!

Even a lot of the well-known musicians and producers in the industry were tongue-tied and wide-eyed!
