Free Web NovelChapter 2353: Chapter 1316: Ice Dancing
There haven’t been any abnormalities discovered yet, as they haven’t talked.
Although we’ve suspected that couple for a while, they haven’t made any moves. Perhaps they’re just insignificant figures.
The director got the guests to reach the pond’s edge, where they were told to put on roller skates and play around, both on the pond side and in the pond.
Because of thick snow cover, everything with water was iced over. Someone measured the ice’s thickness to see if it could support a person’s weight.
Someone even tried it to find out if a grown person would crack the ice when standing on it.
There aren’t any children in the village now. Only footprints exist where someone previously walked.
The director explained the rules, asking the guests to form groups and dance around on the ice. It’s not ordinary dancing or skating but dancing on the ice.
People with such talents usually have professional training; this is similar to what national-level competitors do.
For amateur skaters like them, although everyone skates in their youth, has everyone really skated on ice?
Whether in real ice or dryland skating, some people skate smoothly but can’t dance in pairs while skating or perform advanced dance moves. Those national-level competitors with these skills are always chosen.
...
The live stream audience had the highest hopes for Mo Jingyan and Luo Youyou.
Their live stream has always attracted the most viewers.
For the ice dancing competition, rooms split into individual streams or a grid style, allowing teams to compete and compare their ice dances.
This method highlights the male and female leads’ brilliance.
There are no external judges but a few staff and bodyguards as spectators.
The director lets the streaming audience vote to choose the first and last place.
There are four groups of guests—each with different awards. This performance comes with prizes.
Additional rewards include investor-designed luxury restaurants, couple meals, resort day trips,
coupons for fancy Western dining establishments?
Shopping vouchers and similar prizes.
These prizes mean little to wealthy participants, with or without awards.
For ordinary contestants, winning anything is a gain.
But now they participate in a show and compete against others, so they’ll give their all, refusing to lose to others.
Today’s weather is clear, the sun is out, and it shines on the edges, creating a unique reflection.
Before dancing, guests dump their heavy coats for more flexibility, though it could make them colder and possibly numb their limbs on the icy surface.
Boys wear different colored shoes than girls. The show provides shoes based on guests’ sizes.
Among all guests, only Luo Youyou and Mo Jingyan have kept their coats on—it’s because they’re lightly dressed, with vestment robes that allow easy movement.
The guests hold hands, with the men holding one of the women’s hands. As the director plays music, they all start ice dancing to the melody.
Mo Jingyan holds Luo Youyou’s hand, their feet gliding on ice as if dancing on solid ground. Their shoes, or boots, are magic artifacts, transforming the ice underfoot without any feet movement needed, just the guiding thought for dance steps,
allowing them to gracefully dance, spinning and performing high-level actions seamlessly on ice. They not only dance but can perform other skills.
Their dance is visually pleasing and shows elegance, resembling a true couple, expressing love through their movements, sharing their affection.
Some dance enthusiasts, skaters, and professors are watching from the live stream. A few officials also tune in.
Some shows have drawn them in. Online clips of celebrities and real people dancing on ice have already lured many viewers.
Many professionals recognize the advanced dance techniques and challenging moves beyond those guests’ skills, revealing competitor-level prowess.
Mo Jingyan and Luo Youyou’s posture, speed, and grace captivate many, enabling viewers to see their ’Stepping on Snow Without a Trace’ ability.
Snippets from shows have had these two garnering attention.
An added skill now is ice skating; they previously showed competitor quality in skiing.
Now in ice dancing, they exhibit that competitor style.
No one compares them to world champions.
Laymen can’t discern the skill depth; only those there could appreciate their capabilities.
Dance clips of Mo Jingyan and Luo Youyou go viral online.
Though other guests are dancing, it lacks fluidity, with some falling and others displaying moves that aren’t dance-like.
The Liang couple’s ability isn’t up to par with ice dance standards – they haven’t fallen but lack a dance gene.
They don’t attract viewers with ordinary looks; fewer tune in to their stream during the dance times.
Liang Sisi and Lai Chuanyu’s stream counts weren’t too bad, they learned the dance style and can skate, but ice dance needed fluidity they almost lacked, risking falls often.
Fang Zizhou and Ye Qingning are good dancers; this marks their first ice dance. They were quite coordinated but missed a few technical moves.
Advanced moves proved difficult for them; easier ones they managed well. No falls meant they were quite good – especially compared to those who did fall.
The ice dance contest concluded with Mo Jingyan and Luo Youyou winning online votes, placing first.
Fang Zizhou and Ye Qingning came second.
Liang Sisi and Lai Chuanyu ranked third.
The Liang duo’s couple placed last; the cause might be their distraction or failed expectations. They made mistakes again.
Despite task failure, they aren’t implicated by character links or face dire consequences.
Failure brings ills; reprimands await upon return.
Online votes have decided the winners. The director announces rankings.
Next is their free dance section. The program will play music for the guests to dance freely.
Given a whole morning, one dance won’t suffice.
After several dances, the director halts them, introducing a game – a snowball fight.
After this game, they change back into their original attire.
The skates come off too.
The game begins with snowman building then snowball fights.
Whose snowman appears most lifelike?
A judge decides upon the best-built snowman.
Many dislike snowman building; the freezing weather only appeals to game players outdoors.
Keeping warm indoors feels better, right?
Only some playful spirits, along with current outdoor gamers, indulge in snow play.
They pair up, each duo forming a snowman, shaped uniquely by preference.
Mo Jingyan and Luo Youyou create a snow-woman, resembling a fairy in flowing white robes, depicting reality excellently.
Just like a white-clad fairy.
