Under the spotlight, Riley Wu's breathing became rapid.

He still maintained the standard kneeling shooting posture from more than ten seconds ago, his body slightly leaning forward, his left elbow stuck in front of his left knee, his line of sight tilted to the right to overlap with the scope.

The camera accurately captured the boy's profile.

His fine curly hair was slightly damp with sweat. When he knelt and shot, he looked like a knight in an ancient ritual. When he squinted his eyes, he looked unusually solemn and cold, focused and handsome.

The atmosphere off the field instantly reached its peak.

The ladies screamed for Riley Wu without hesitation, and the traffic of the live broadcast barrage increased dramatically.

The director was overjoyed and made a prompt decision: "Quick, turn off the lights, and insert a commercial here!"

Even Damon was amazed and patted Riley Wu on the shoulder: "Great, brother!"

In the scenes of the escape show, expressiveness has a huge impact on the contestants' personalities. It is not easy for an honest little white rabbit like Riley Wu to reach this level in a week.

Although he is not very skilled in handling the gun, his imposing manner is enough to scare people.

Riley Wu just stood up, but was almost unbalanced by Damon's slap, and his cheeks were slightly red.

The kneeling shot that amazed the whole audience just now imitated the shooting posture of the guard in the training room early that morning.

According to the big boss’s analysis at the time, if the auditions were a battle royale, then the semi-finals would be a battle royale show.

The three judges score based on skills, tactics, and expressiveness. In other words, "escape" accounts for one-third and "show" accounts for two-thirds.

Riley Wu tried to argue that tactics were also a practical ability to escape and kill, but Archer Wei rejected his argument without hesitation.

Pre-selected maps with reference materials also require tactics?

The desert map had appeared eight times in the Crosson Show. Archer Wei squeezed the eight replays to the extreme and fine-tuned Riley Wu's tactical position.

As for the shooting action---

In the silent summer night, Archer Wei brought Riley Wu over and said, "Remember, I will only demonstrate this once."

The lights in the training room were bright, shining coldly on the boss. Archer Wei changed from maneuvering to kneeling in three seconds, and the pressure dropped sharply when he squinted his eyes.

"What are you standing there for?" Archer Wei raised his eyebrows.

Riley Wu quickly got up, sat up straight, and watched.

... Archer Wei ordered: "Stand over here and learn."

---

The lights came on again.

On the Crossen semi-final stage, the judges' panel announced the group scores. All four contestants advanced.

Lennox Damon a, assisted by Rory b.

The camera finally turned to Riley Wu.

There are three mentors and judges in the Crosson Show. Among them, Xue Ge, who has retired for two years, is responsible for tactical guidance, and the other two mentors are responsible for practical skills and camera performance.

The three score sheets were handed to Xue Ge. The retired veteran who had fought in the escape show for nearly twenty years looked at Riley Wu and said, "No. 300012, contestant Wu."

Riley Wu quickly stood at attention.

Blood Pigeon took out the first score and said kindly, "Very talented. His marksmanship is a bit rusty, and you can see that he has worked hard. He needs to continue practicing. To be fair to other contestants, combat skills---c, any objections?"

There was a commotion among the face-obsessed people in the venue. Riley Wu felt a little disappointed, but he quickly adjusted himself, shook his head quickly, and bowed to express his gratitude.

Riley Wu did not reject this C. If it were not for a whole week of repeated training, he could only be between F and E at best.

Although ---Riley Wu's peripheral vision swept across the distant A area, where a few players were sitting, and it was also the closest position to S. Riley Wu's fur slightly collapsed, he was going to disappoint the boss.

Blood Pigeon took out the second rating sheet: "Tactical design," he paused, and finally smiled: "Flawless, A."

Riley Wu was stunned, his eyes sparkling. His cheeks were obviously hot, and he was standing at attention even though he was so happy, which made people want to look at him more.

Riley Wu's average score had been reduced to B at this point, so the last item of the evaluation was crucial. Xue Ge raised his eyebrows: "Stage performance... Teacher Ying, I'm curious as to why you gave this score."

The performance mentor of the Crosson Show is the only female judge, the well-known actress Ying Xiangxiang. She looks extremely charming among a group of escape contestants, with a petite figure and delicate makeup. However, everyone knows that it is quite extraordinary for this actress to be able to sit in the mentor seat for three consecutive seasons.

"The infectious show performance will make the camera follow it actively." Ying Xiangxiang said with a smile: "There are a total of 16 camera positions on the stage. Just now, when all the cameras were frozen on his face, I thought, it's time to give this score."

Ying Xiangxiang took out her score sheet from Xue Ge's hand and showed it to the camera: "S. Perfect, no doubt, this is the top performance of the S level."

The fireworks on the stage burst out suddenly, and the applause surged like a tide. The message bar on the screen changed instantly:

Contestant No. 300012 Riley Wu, combat skill C, tactical design A, expressiveness S. Final score: A.

Riley Wu suddenly opened his eyes wide.

Damon excitedly hugged Riley Wu's shoulders, his face full of disbelief: "Little Wu, how did you do it?! It's only been seven days! Damn you---"

Xue Ge signed his name on the review, and amid the screams that filled the entire venue, he mouthed to Riley Wu: "Come on."

The transparent stairs leading to the contestants' seats lit up, and the trainees from Baiyueguang Entertainment thanked the audience and walked up.

After the camera moved away, Ying Xiangxiang smiled softly and whispered away from the microphone: "It's a pity that the judges can't buy the first glass of champagne for the contestants."

Blood Pigeon: "...Take it easy."

The next group's performance was about to begin. In the contestant area, several people went up all the way and said goodbye to Wen Lin at the entrance of seat B.

Riley Wu finally touched shoulders with this quiet teammate, and Wen Lin said with a smile, "No need to see me off. I'll come find you guys after I advance to the next round next week."

Lennox nodded vigorously and watched her assistant walk away.

The remaining three walked to seat A and greeted their future classmates. Damon and Lennox both breathed a sigh of relief and quickly took off their heavy combat jackets.

When Riley Wu turned around again, his two teammates were leaning against each other, completely in leisure mode, with inexplicably excited expressions in their eyes.

Damon chuckled, and there was something indescribably weird on his handsome face: "Come here, little witch! Sit here, I'll teach you something good..."

Lennox suddenly remembered: "Wait, Xiao Wu, are you an adult?"

Riley Wu nodded in confusion.

"That's good." Lennox was relieved and snapped her fingers, and the screen in front of her seat turned on.

There seemed to be an auction on the screen, and the price list was constantly refreshing.

"It's already up to 8,000 credit points," Lennox said with emotion, "I remember that glass of champagne I bought last year only sold for 2,000."

Riley Wu was shocked to find that his player number also appeared in the auction information, and the price had skyrocketed to 20,000 credit points.

"Relax, we're not auctioning off the contestants," Lennox explained. "We're auctioning off the right to buy the first glass of champagne for the contestants. Of course, the focus is not on the champagne itself."

Damon: "Hehehehehe..."

Of the three, Damon's champagne stopped at the 7000 signal point first, and the waiter quickly brought a crystal goblet with amber liquid flowing in it. There was a small envelope under the tray, and a faint lip print could be seen on the seal.

Riley Wu: ... Wait, this, this operation seems...

Damon took it with satisfaction, smiling like a 1.8-meter-tall idiot. He opened the envelope faster than a gunshot, and looked up after a long while: "Well, what time is the curfew for returning to the trainee dormitory at night?"

Riley Wu: ...

Even Lennox was a little surprised: "So soon? Are you still a human being? The show ends at six and the door is closed at ten, so there are four hours in between."

Damon regretted: "It's only four hours, how can it be enough."

Lennox: "...then are you going or not?"

Damon nodded: "Of course I'll go!" After that, his hormones exploded and he told the waiter: "How can a gentleman let a lady buy him a drink? I'll pay for the credit points, and tell that lovely lady that we'll meet tonight."

The second glass of champagne was handed to Lennox. The sniper who had fought in two seasons of the Crosson Show was now worth twice as much, but there was no exaggerated lip print on the envelope.

"It's a contact number." Lennox took out her terminal and added it. The profile picture on the other side was a teenager of about sixteen or seventeen years old.

"Unfortunately, I never do anything to minors." Lennox raised her eyebrows, looking a little depressed: "Forget it, I'll help him with his homework later."

Damon was drinking heavily: "Maybe he just looks small, like Xiao Wu. Xiao Wu, how much is your champagne?"

Riley Wu stared at the screen blankly: "Sixty thousand."

Damon almost spit out his wine: "60,000? Are they crazy?!" Then he remembered: "Has your player information not been updated yet?! I'm in big trouble. Now men and women are fighting for it."

Riley Wu came back to his senses in shock: "I, I, I..."

Lennox thought thoughtfully: "Xiao Wu, have you ever had a girlfriend?"

Riley Wu shook his head.

"Where's your boyfriend?"

Riley Wu’s head was almost shaking like a rattle.

Lennox showed an incredulous look, and seeing Riley Wu was frightened, she immediately changed her tone to comfort him: "It's okay to refuse. Remember, you are a contestant, and if they treat you to a drink, you are not obligated to treat them back."

---But then Lennox changed her tone.

Riley Wu's first glass of champagne had been bid up to 100,000 yuan, and was eventually sold to a wealthy man who suddenly intervened and raised the price to 140,000 yuan.

"It's a bit much," Lennox said dryly.

"Xiao Wu, do you want to get an advance on your salary from the company?" Damon was also worried, but he was obviously reluctant to part with the 140,000 yuan: "How about Lennox and I take your place?"

Lennox kicked Damon in the a**. At this moment, the waiter handed the champagne and envelope to Riley Wu.

"Maybe the rich man just wants to make friends with you!" Damon consoled, and said curiously: "Open it and take a look."

Riley Wu opened the envelope and cursed the crappy program crew in his heart.

For the champagne auction, Closon Show took 20% of the commission, and it was unknown when the 30,000 credit points could be repaid. Damon and Lennox were excitedly stretching their heads when Riley Wu suddenly closed the envelope.

"Let me see it, let me see it!" Damon shouted.

Riley Wu quickly threw the envelope into his pocket.

"What's written inside? Why are you blushing?!" Lennox was also scratching her head.

"Just congratulations on your promotion." Riley Wu answered honestly.

Damon exclaimed: "140,000 just to congratulate you on your promotion? Are the rich people nowadays so gracious? You didn't give me the room number? You didn't even give me a contact number?" He then wailed: "You are at a high level. Xiao Wu, be careful, don't get eaten alive. This guy is definitely a veteran in the love field---"

Riley Wu thought, nonsense! That's not true!

At the same time, he happily took out the note and read it again.

congratulate.
