Lin Yuan and the Yu Dynasty had been busy in the recording studio for quite a while.
Two hours later.
A song was sent to the Qi Continent Sports Bureau.
What would happen next was certainly going to be arranged by the Qi side; he personally suggested they should make a thematically appropriate music video overnight.
Sure enough.
The next day arrived.
Qi Continent First Stadium!
This is the largest stadium in Qi Continent.
Professional athletes from different disciplines in Qi Continent had been intensively training here recently for the Bluelympics.
The arena was vast, with different training areas for each discipline.
But the dining hall was shared.
Athletes from all disciplines were having breakfast in a few large connected dining halls.
This was right about everyone’s breakfast ti.
The large screen on the wall had been playing songs with strong rhythms to cheer everyone up daily.
The cafeteria was usually bustling.
Close-knit athletes huddled in groups, enjoying their self-served breakfast and chatting away, lanting the physical and ntal fatigue brought about by the imminent Bluelympics…
Not many people were paying attention to the songs played.
It wasn’t until "Believe in Yourself" sounded that soone finally looked at the big screen.
"I heard this song online yesterday."
"It seems to be a morale-boosting song by Xian Yu specifically for Qin Continent athletes."
"The song is indeed good, but it’s a sha it wasn’t written for us Qi Continent athletes."
"If only Xian Yu could write a song for us too, I’m a fan of his."
"Stop dreaming, Xian Yu is from Qin Continent."
"Our leadership sure is bold, playing the battle song of Qin Continent athletes for us."
"Maybe this is ant to be reverse psychology, to stimulate us to beat Qin Continent on the field?"
"....."
Instead of being stimulated, everyone seed a bit envious; amidst jokes and teasing, "Believe in Yourself" finally finished.
Just then.
A voice suddenly ca over the stadium’s loudspeaker:
"In order for Qi Continent to triumph at Bluelympics, we understand that everyone’s training has been tough and diligent. To boost your morale, we’ve specially prepared a song for everyone. In the final month, let’s grit our teeth and give our best! If Qin Continent has a song, we on Qi Continent have one too!"
The man’s voice broadcasting this on the speaker suddenly beca exciting!
The athletes were taken aback.
A morale booster?
Was the managent planning to imitate Qin Continent and have a song to cheer on the Qi athletes too?
Who wrote the song?
A Maestro from Qi Continent?
At that mont.
Soone suddenly exclaid, "Xian Yu!"
Whoosh!
All eyes instinctively turned to the TV screen, and everyone’s expression changed!
Boom! Boom! Boom!
The rhythmic sound of the drums echoed, and then all the information about the song appeared on the screen!
Title: I Believe
Lyrics: Xian Yu
Composer: Xian Yu
Perford by: Yu Dynasty
This morale-boosting song for Qi Continent athletes is also a work from Xian Yu, who after composing a song for Qin Continent, arranged a song for Qi Continent as well!
The noise level began to rise!
Without waiting for the athletes to discuss, an image suddenly appeared on the screen!
What is this…
Upon seeing the content of the footage, the football athletes from Qi Continent imdiately clenched their fists and bit their lips!
It was footage from the 33rd Bluylympics football match!
The picture was sowhat dim.
It was perated with a sense of helplessness and sadness.
All athletes with a mory of that competition would know that the 33rd Bluelympics was the worst defeat ever for Qi Continent’s football team!
It was a scar!
Indeed, what followed next was the footage of the football athletes crying in despair after losing the competition.
As if they were infected by the sadness at the ti.
The football players suddenly lost their appetite.
However.
The very next mont.
The corners of Qi Continent’s footballers’ mouths curled into smiles.
The 38th Bluelympics: Qi Continent’s football team defeated Zhong Continent, washing away all past embarrassnts and made history by becoming the champions!
In the midst of the laughter, the resounding chorus of the song suddenly burst out!
Clear!
Uplifting!
"Yearning to fly up to the sun, side by side
The world is waiting for to bring change
Never afraid of showing off the dreams I hold
Here, I can achieve it all
Laughing out loud and standing shoulder to shoulder, with you beside
There’s no limit to the joy we can experience, anywhere at all
Casting away all worries, face forward with bravery
I am standing right there on the stage..."
Splash!
Not just the football team!
Almost all athletes in the cafeteria have put down their chopsticks. All their mouths slightly agape, they could only feel their blood starting to rush faster with the lody!
A certain emotion is quietly spreading!
With the singing, more and more scenes started to unfold on the screen...
They are Qi Continent’s athletes working up a sweat on various events at Bluelympics, the countless subli monts of the past years!
Swoosh, swoosh, swoosh!
Each line of the lyrics corresponds to a perfectly setting scene.
For instance, when the song gets to "I am standing right there on the stage", the scene just perfectly matches a retired Qi Continent track and field athlete, lifting the dal high above his head after winning the championship nine years ago!
He’s being celebrated!
In these rapidly changing images!
The gaze of the audience suddenly heats up!
Bluelympics, is the ultimate stage in all athletes’ hearts!
Who doesn’t yearn for a chance to win a gold dal for their own state in their lifeti, bask in the shower of flowers and glory, even hold up their own trophy amidst the trendous cheers of their teammates and people!
Can I...
Do it?
Like those successful ones in the pictures?
Almost everyone had such thoughts flash across their minds.
And before this thought settles down!
An even more sonorous song was resounding next to everyone’s ears:
"I believe I am !"
"I believe in tomorrow!"
"I believe youth has no horizon!"
"By the seaside at sunset, on the bustling street, they are the most beautiful paradises in my heart!"
"I believe in the freedom and ease!"
"I believe in hope!"
"I believe I can touch the sky just by reaching out!"
"Having you by my side makes life better, every mont is full of thrill!"
Screw it!
I can do it!
I am capable of anything!
The feelings are igniting and boiling over, all the athletes’ blood was racing in an instant, the adrenaline was pumping like crazy, a surging strength filled their bodies, and there was no self-doubt anymore!
In the quickly scrolling images.
The piano rged with the intense electric guitar, backed by explosive drum beats, as the bass and keyboard were fully engaged, the collective voices of all the Yu Dynasty singers literally poured out all their strength. It seed to tell all the hesitant hearts:
"I do believe!!!"
Please believe, you guys can do it!!
You have given so much youth for that mont, the stage and the field have been your lifelong pursuit, any self-doubt at this point is a betrayal of all the sweat and tears shed before!
When the song is over...
All the athletes, gulped down the food in front of them in a rush, and then stood up one after another!
The sound of chairs scraping the floor echoed constantly!
"Damn!"
A few famous coaches who just entered the cafeteria were startled by the commotion!
What’s going on?
The coaches looked at the athletes who were standing up like the tide, thinking these jocks were about to gang up on them!
’Have the training assignnts been too heavy lately?’
That’s what the coaches thought with puzzled faces. But a player who usually complained about the hard training hollered:
"Coach, before Bluelympics, please push hard, don’t hold back one bit!"
"Being so proactive all of a sudden, what are you up to?"
"I want to soar high, shoulder to shoulder with the sun!"
"..."
The coaches looked at each other.
Have they gone insane?
Looking back at the other athletes, every one of them was as eager and ambitious as though they were injected with a booster...
Huh?
You want to soar high too, shoulder to shoulder with the sun?
July 2nd.
At six o’clock in the morning.
About a month before the Bluelympics, Xian Yu’s song "I Believe" is launched on major music platforms. Before Qi Continent officials started to promote it, the song was already sweeping across the four corners of the earth at an astonishingly rapid pace!
