Quiana hesitated for a moment, then couldn’t resist. “Err… You could choose something else.”

However, to Lynn, this suggestion felt like an insult. She was 31 years old and had mustered a lot of courage to stand there. And now, she was being belittled. She gritted her teeth and said firmly, “No, singing it is”
Quiana let out a soft and inaudible sigh. “Alright then, let’s sing.”
Lynn went first. She sang her most popular song, filled with nostalgia, and showcased her excellent stage presence and control. Yet, when Quiana opened her mouth to sing, her voice captivated everyone, leaving them in awe.
Quiana’s beautiful voice lingered in everyone’s ears. It was as if she was born to sing. Lynn was so captivated by her performance that before the song ended, she already knew she had lost.
She stared in shock. “Did Amanda and Eleanor really lose to you?”
Quiana nodded. “I did warn you.”
Lynn fell silent, finally realizing that Quiana’s earlier words were not an insult but a genuine warning.
Quiana was young, and she would have more chances even if she lost today. However, Lynn wouldn’t have that opportunity. Before leaving, she cast a lingering glance at the stage, her expression complicated as she said, “You’re really incredible.”
Quiana’s voice and presence gave off an aura that made it feel like once she started singing, no one could possibly defeat her.
And just like that, Quiana had won again. Not just the hundred girls watching, but even the mentors like Jocelyn were speechless, staring at her like she was some kind of freak.
After a long pause, Alex finally said, “This isn’t a competition anymore. It’s more like Quiana’s exclusive performance.” He thought that if this got aired, the whole world was going to be shocked.
“She’s really…” Eric hesitated, “Crazy!”
Just then, Quiana said, “Is there any more challenger, Mr. Smith?”
If it weren’t for her polite tone, Steven would have seriously considered handing over his position to her, letting her take over as the host. However, he couldn’t. His voice faltered slightly as he said, “There’s one final challenger,”
Just then, Ronan’s voice came through Steven’s earpiece and made him stunned. Ronan said, “Stop the last challenger from picking Quiana!”
Steven felt speechless. He thought, ‘Even Lynn couldn’t be stopped from picking Quiana despite the warnings. How could I intervene? Am I supposed to rush up and tell her not to pick Quiana because she’s incredibly skilled and the previous challengers had lost to her?‘
“No matter what it takes,” Ronan’s voice was heavy, “we need intervention!”
Quiana had shocked them all, and the final challenger would no doubt pick her as well. Quiana’s singing was simply unbeatable. They had invited her to create buzz and hype–not for her to dominate the stage with a personal performance that overshadowed everyone else.
Why is this season of the competition so hard to manage?‘ Steven thought. He internally screamed, but he couldn’t show it. Glancing at Quiana, who still hadn’t left the stage, he forced a smile and said, “The next challenger is Sandy Howard.”
Sandy, 25, was a talented rapper and a skilled popper with impressive dancing moves. Steven thought that even if she picked Quiana, it was unlikely she would challenge her to a singing contest.

Steven let out a sigh of relief. Before he could say anything, he saw Sandy’s gaze land on Quiana. She studied her for a moment before asking, “So, are you Quiana that everyone’s talking about?”

‘What’s going on? Is she really going to pick Quiana? Steven thought. The entire room was so quiet that only the sound of breathing could be heard.
For those girls, if Sandy picked Quiana, it didn’t matter if she won or lost because none of them would be eliminated. In fact, they were all secretly hoping Sandy would pick her.
Steven wanted to slap himself for jinxing it. “Well, Sandy..
Seeing Quiana nod, Steven tried to intervene, but before he could, Sandy cut him off. “It’s just a pretty face with no substance,” Her eyes were full of disdain. “Do you think I will challenge you?”
Without even sparing Quiana another glance, she turned toward the stage, pointing at someone. “I’m challenging Number
37.”
Everyone including Quiana was surprised, and the room fell into silence.
