"Huh? Not bad at all!" A look of surprise flashed in Ling Feng's eyes, for the young student leading the group actually had a subtle fluctuation in his aura, which meant that this person was not an ordinary student, but a Martial Artist with Inner Strength.

Because of the Martial Artist's aura, coupled with the rendering of "Ambush from Ten Sides," there was a sense of tragic air on the field.

The stage was suddenly filled with the smoke of battle, and under the shroud of smoke, those men fell one by one in battle. In the end, the smoke dissipated, leaving only the leading student standing, but by then, he was covered in wounds, his right sleeve empty and flapping. He laughed wildly, looking up at the sky, "The beacon fires light up the West Capital, my heart cannot stay calm. Leaving the Phoenix Pavilion, the iron cavalry surrounds Dragon City. The snow darkens the carved flags, the wind carries the sound of clashing drums. I'd rather be a Centurion, than to live as a mere scholar! I'd rather be a Centurion, than to live as a mere scholar, hahaha…"

As he spoke, his left hand grabbed a paintbrush nearby and kept splashing it across the white scroll behind him.

"Left-handed painting, is this the 'Thousand Li of Rivers and Mountains' painting?" An elder from the National Painting Association in the VIP seats couldn't help but exclaim, gripping so hard that he actually pulled out several of his own white whiskers!

Meanwhile, the male student on stage seemed deeply immersed in the process. As the pipa music gradually faded, he threw down his brush, and in just over three minutes, a magnificent 'Thousand Li of Rivers and Mountains' painting had emerged before everyone's eyes.

Majestic mountains, rushing rivers, the rising sun, and misty clouds... A powerful and grand atmosphere confronted everyone head-on!

When he finished the last stroke, he shouted out loud, "The landscape is picturesque for a thousand li, as we rise together through wind and rain. The five thousand years of Huaxia's vicissitudes lie buried across the Nine Provinces with loyal souls. I ask the world, who dares to offend Huaxia? Though far away, they shall be pursued to the ends of the earth!"

Amidst the laughter, he slowly fell onto the stage.

"Incredible, truly incredible!" remarked an elder sitting next to the president, watching this scene, "Although this performance showcased the superb skills of two students, a Pipa prodigy and a left hand crafting the 'Thousand Li of Rivers and Mountains' painting! But what surprised me the most was that with just a few scenes, they managed to enact a tragic battle in my mind, driving out the Tatar invaders and reviving our Huaxia! Excellent, excellent indeed!"

The performance ended, and countless students excitedly waved their glow sticks and cheered loudly!

Clearly, the first performance had been a triumphant success! Following acts also carried the essence of Huaxia culture. Yan University for a hundred years has been a symbol of the inheritance of Huaxia culture!

So at this centennial celebration, countless elements of Huaxia culture once again took the stage. A landscape that integrates martial arts with the artistic conception of Huaxia, profound, and inspiring! The women's music ensemble's classical instruments created poetic and picturesque music on the stage, indulging the audience in their elegance, a clear spring amongst the dominant Western instruments!

A trace of curiosity appeared in Ling Feng's eyes as well, as these performances were obviously meticulously prepared, and they were very appealing to him! After all, he rarely had the chance to be immersed in traditional Huaxia culture!

In the intermission between the student performances, many popular singers and bands from the entertainment industry sang, making for a lively atmosphere.

"Boss, I didn't expect Yan University's centennial celebration to be this spectacular!" exclaimed a CCTV live broadcast technician, "I bet even some of the provincial satellite TV's New Year's Eve galas can't match this, right?"

The person in charge of the CCTV live broadcast smiled and replied, "Of course, the heritage of a century-old Yan University is not something the average person can imagine! What do those local New Year's Eve TV shows have that is memorable, other than inviting a few big-name stars?"

"Enough with the sighs!" said the person in charge with a smile, "Focus on your work. It's also a promotion for our national culture, otherwise, why do you think CCTV is broadcasting this live?"

Unbeknownst to them, the celebration was already halfway through, and the performances and guest appearances in the first half had been spectacular, receiving enthusiastic responses from the Yan University students.

"Next up, we have the famous South Korean band tree, presenting their hit song 'i want you.' Let's give them a warm welcome!"

Backstage, tree's manager was consoling Park Yingjun and his group, saying, "This is a rare opportunity. As long as you give a good performance, you can expand your influence once again."

"With our abilities, a simple performance will do!" Park Yingjun scoffed as he dressed in his stage costume, "What is the company planning to do about Chen Ningxue's matter? She actually humiliated us in public. We must retaliate!"

The manager furrowed his brow and said, "Chen Ningxue's background is a bit complicated, and we need to discuss this matter more thoroughly. Let's wait until after your performance is over, understood?"

Park Yingjun shrugged his shoulders, "Fine, but I want to reiterate my point. I will definitely not let Chen Ningxue off the hook!"

At that moment, the sound of cheering came from outside, and the manager said, "It's time for you to go on stage."

The several men of the tree group exchanged looks, a hint of impatience flashing in their eyes. They had come to Yan University this time for a free performance, which was something they were very displeased about!

In their opinion, even if Yan University begged them to perform, they would still reconsider! But now...

"Let's go, just get it over with," Park Yingjun told the members.

At this moment, the prelude to the music had started playing on stage. The members of tree stood on the rising platform, slowly ascending with the rhythm of the music.

"Hey, baby..." As the music started, the members of tree began swaying their bodies, starting to sing.

At the same time, countless students in the audience received a message on their phones.

"The time is ripe!" said a young student backstage, pushing up his glasses with a sneer, "Dare to bully our students at Yan University, dare to bully my goddess, Sister Xue, in my heart. Now, I'm going to give you a taste of what despair feels like!"

Park Yingjun was ready to hear the cheers and screams from the audience, but an unexpected situation occurred!

Their initial enthusiastic cheering disappeared as soon as they appeared on stage; and when they began to sing, there was unexpected silence from the audience. Apart from the music, there were no cheers or screams, which was completely different from the previous appearances of other stars!

An ominous premonition arose in Park Yingjun's heart.

Soon, his premonition became reality.

In his shocked gaze, the ocean-like supportive lights from the audience methodically went out one section at a time.

From far to near, from left to right! With each extinguished section, Park Yingjun's heart trembled!

"Black Sea! It's the Black Sea!" The Black Sea event, the despair of countless artists, actually happened at Yan University's anniversary celebration!
