Extreme Almightiest Young Master

Chapter 1548 - 1546: Audition

The crowd continued to mock Lin Feng, but at this moment, Su Xiaoxi’s expression was extremely unpleasant. Others might not know Lin Feng, but she was very clear about him; if Lin Feng said he could do it, he certainly would. Moreover, this was filming an action movie. To put it bluntly, Lin Feng didn’t even need ropes to fly in the sky. If it weren’t for helping her, how could Lin Feng possibly do such a boring thing? These people were coming out to mock Lin Feng now, it was simply too much!

Thinking of this, Su Xiaoxi was about to speak. She wouldn’t allow anyone to talk about Lin Feng like that. But when she saw Lin Feng’s eyes, she understood Lin Feng didn’t want to waste time here, so she had to suppress her anger and speak to the director, "Director, Lin Feng might be a bit young, but if you don’t give him a chance, how can you know what the result will be?"

Su Xiaoxi was already angry now; Lin Feng was her man, she couldn’t let Lin Feng become the target of everyone’s ridicule. However, since Lin Feng didn’t want to waste time with these people, otherwise she would leave with Lin Feng, even if it meant not filming this movie.

"Xiao Xi, you know this film isn’t your typical action movie; it demands a lot from the actors. Zhang Wu is ranked among the top five martial artists in the business, and even he got injured. Can your friend really handle it?" The director’s face turned a bit sour hearing Su Xiaoxi’s words. Although Su Xiaoxi was the leading actress in this film, the investment in this movie was already so high, he couldn’t afford any problems with it.

"The director is right. We’ve worked hard for such a long time. Although Zhang Wu had an accident, we can’t just find anyone to shoot this film!"

"These remaining scenes are not ordinary; they’re the climax of the action parts, and regular actors simply can’t manage them."

"Xiao Xi, don’t make it hard for the director. Your friend may be good, but this is filmmaking, it’s serious business."

...

The people around overheard the conversation between Su Xiaoxi and the director, and all stepped forward to speak. One was the leading actress, and the other the director; if conflict arose between them, the movie might not get filmed. So they didn’t want anything to happen between them; if there were issues, it was best to discuss them together.

Upon hearing the others talk, Su Xiaoxi’s face became even worse. She was genuinely angry now, and the consequence was very serious. She didn’t want to speak any more nonsense with these people, so she walked to Lin Feng and prepared to leave with him. No matter how important the film was, it couldn’t be more important than Lin Feng.

Seeing Su Xiaoxi about to leave, Li Yang was stunned. He hadn’t expected Su Xiaoxi to take such a crazy action. He couldn’t let this happen now, so he immediately stood up and said, "Director, I think Xiao Xi’s words make some sense. Trying it out doesn’t hurt. Maybe Lin Feng can really do it? Just do me a favor, would you?"

Li Yang’s words sounded casual, but the director was taken aback hearing them. He hadn’t expected Li Yang to stand up for Su Xiaoxi either. But considering the leads of the film both stood up, he couldn’t reject them entirely. Although he was the country’s most well-known director, offending these two would have serious consequences; it wasn’t worth making such a mistake over an unknown kid.

"Then let’s give it a try." At this moment, the director could only helplessly agree, though he had already decided that if Lin Feng didn’t work out, it wouldn’t be his responsibility. He’d quickly find other martial arts stars.

Upon hearing the director say this, the others had nothing more to say and stood aside to watch. They too were curious to see what kind of performance Su Xiaoxi was so insistent on backing. Meanwhile, Li Yang wore a meaningful smile, though what was actually behind the smile, only he knew.

"How will we try?" Lin Feng asked the director indifferently.

"Well, first try your acting skills. Simple, just some facial expressions. First, try a wild laugh, one that scorns the world, because that’s the kind of role Zhang Wu was playing." Hearing Lin Feng ask this, the director directly explained. Since Lin Feng would replace Zhang Wu in the following scenes, they had to test Lin Feng’s basic skills.

Hearing the director’s words, Lin Feng laughed immediately. However, this time the smile was quite exaggerated, extremely so!

"Ahahaha..."

Lin Feng’s laughter was exceptionally loud, and everyone around heard it clearly. Lin Feng’s expression was unmistakably top-notch—as anyone could feel the daring arrogance of scorning the world from that laughing expression!

Without a doubt, Lin Feng had portrayed this wild laugh to perfection, almost nonchalantly. Just this expression alone, perhaps no one else in the world could perform so realistically. If unaware of the situation, people might think Lin Feng was that kind of person standing atop the world, like a god!

How is this possible!

How did he do it!

This is too unbelievably amazing!

...

The people around were all stunned by Lin Feng’s wild laughter. No one expected Lin Feng to bring the laughter to such a degree. In all honesty, these people were professionals, yet none of them could achieve such an effect—even if they were experts. They were thinking, is Lin Feng really just a university professor? This kind of acting was too exaggerated; not even superstars could create such expressions!

How is this possible!

Li Yang was equally surprised by what happened. Lin Feng was supposedly just a university professor, yet he managed to produce a laugh neither he nor any of the others could do. This truly caught him off guard; he thought, could this kid be pretending to be a fool to catch the Tiger, an idiom for deceiving the competent? Not being a professional would not be able to emulate this, but this kid actually achieved it. What’s going on, who exactly is he?

While everyone was so shocked, Su Xiaoxi’s face bloomed into a smile again, thinking that this test was simply too easy for Lin Feng. Lin Feng is inherently an unmatched existence in this world; if Lin Feng couldn’t perform that expression, that would be the strange thing. But seeing the surprised faces all around, Su Xiaoxi was truly pleased, and her gaze toward Lin Feng was full of tender feelings.

"I never expected you to do so well; it really surprises me." The director couldn’t help but speak at this moment. Observing Lin Feng, he was genuinely astonished. As the country’s biggest director, he had seen all sorts of actors, yet he hadn’t seen any perform so perfectly. This singular wild laugh was enough to prove Lin Feng’s acting skills far exceeded those of average stars! He now understood why Lin Feng was so confident before...

"Do you need any other expressions?" Lin Feng stopped laughing and calmly asked the director.

"Try an expression of terror next—that’s required for Zhang Wu’s role during a fight scene with the enemy." Upon hearing Lin Feng’s question, the director responded promptly, already anticipating what Lin Feng’s next expression would look like.

Hearing the director’s words, Lin Feng’s earlier smile instantly vanished, replaced by a face of terrifying heaviness. His expression muscles did not stir, and he emitted a cold aura that lowered the surrounding temperature by several degrees!

Even more exaggerated was Lin Feng’s gaze. Anyone who met Lin Feng’s eyes felt boundless terror. Within that look, they seemed to see mountains of corpses and oceans of blood—and atop a peak of corpses, Lin Feng stood drenched in blood at this very moment. It was as if Lin Feng had transformed into a Demon emerging from Hell, enveloping everyone in ineffable fear.

At this moment, the scene was utterly silent, devoid of any sound, as if everyone were cast in a petrification spell. All of their cold sweat poured forth, and even some, those timid, found their fronts and backs instantly soaked with cold sweat. This boundless fear turned everyone into statues, continuously perspiring cold sweat, even the women present forgot to scream in fright.

It can be said that Lin Feng’s expression of terror at this moment has caused everyone to have an illusion. Just this one expression, no one under heaven could possibly do better than Lin Feng, for his expression successfully affected everyone. Such performing power is beyond ordinary language description—saying it’s unmatched under heaven is not an exaggeration!

With this, over a minute passed, and seeing everyone in a daze, Lin Feng didn’t want it to continue further and retracted his expression, saying to the director, "Director, did my performance meet the standard?"

At these words, everyone immediately woke up, realizing only now, after merely witnessing one of Lin Feng’s expressions, they were thrown into infinite terror. Their clothes were mostly drenched in cold sweat, and they were at a loss for words seeing Lin Feng. Never did they think the world held such a frightening expression. Now, even thinking back their cold sweat continued to flow, feeling this kid’s ability was way too exaggerated. A single expression induced such fear in them; this, truly, isn’t something a person can achieve—not even Immortal could do it!

At this very moment, everyone finally understood why Su Xiaoxi insisted on Lin Feng finishing Zhang Wu’s remaining scenes, and understood Lin Feng’s confidence, too. Damn, no need for anything else—with such magically indescribable acting skills, Lin Feng was enough to become a top actor in the country, no! Enough to become a top actor in the world!

This kid...

Li Yang, at this moment, furtively wiped off the cold sweat from his face, his complexion pale. Now his heart was like a stormy sea; he never expected Lin Feng’s acting to be so exaggerated—literally too extreme. He couldn’t understand how a freak like Lin Feng could exist in the world, performing whatever was needed on cue. These expressions were beyond him; how did the kid manage them? It was as if he’d been slapped in the face barefaced!
