True Battlefield

After the interview, the show officially ended. Jin Chonglin returned backstage. He was greeted by the staff and the other artists congratulating him on a great performance. He thanked them in a hurry, looking for the one person he wanted to compete with. He wanted to know her reaction to his performance.

Fortunately, Iris Long and Pandemonium stayed backstage to wait for him. He breathed a sigh of relief when he saw them. At least, he wouldn't have to look for her in the dressing rooms. He immediately marched towards her.

Before they could greet him, he asked her, "What did you think about my song? My performance?"

"Simple yet genuinely emotional." She looked at him straight in the eyes. "It was a great song, Brother Chonglin. I felt it here," she said, touching her chest above her heart. "You should be proud for creating such music."

"I am," he replied, also looking at her straight in the eyes. He could see that she was sincere in her words of praise to him.
