Figure Skating: There's No Way I'm Just a Pretty-Faced Cannon Fodder!

Ling Ran transmigrated into the cannon-fodder pretty boy of an entertainment industry power fantasy. The original host was useless at his job, relying entirely on his stunning face to act out and court disaster, foolishly trying to step on the male leads to skyrocket to fame. Instead, he became the catalyst for their relationship, was ruthlessly humiliated by them, and was finally run over and killed by their rabid shipping fans. After transmigrating, Ling Ran—a former figure skater—found himself participating in a trainee survival show: …? Touching his new body with perfect flexibility and 100% compatibility for figure skating, he was baffled—with conditions like this, why be a toxic pretty boy? Wouldn’t an Olympic gold medal be way better? If he’d had this body in his past life, why would he have been stuck as the eternal runner-up? He could have won gold medals until his hands were full! Ling Ran immediately packed his bags, quit the show, and headed straight for the ice rink. Anti-fans rejoiced: The useless pretty boy is finally gone! Peers gloated smugly: Thinking you can get famous just by being pretty? Keep dreaming! Everyone thought Ling Ran would disappear into obscurity. But soon after, at the World Juniors, Four Continents, Grand Prix, World Championships, and even the Olympics, the highest podium in men’s singles figure skating began to be dominated by the same black-haired, dark-eyed Chinese skater. The untamable white ice trembled in submission beneath his blades. He was a graceful sprite, a passionate rogue, the king crowned above all others! The name "Ling Ran" spread across the world, becoming synonymous with dominance. In that world of ice and snow, people of all ages, hair colors, and nationalities willingly bowed their heads, honoring him with one title— **Fire King.** Those who once excluded him burned with envy. Those who once scorned him had their faces thoroughly slapped, and now fought to kneel at his feet, screaming and weeping in worship of their new god. ＊ The sound of blades on ice— An undying love and faith. I will chase it all my life, So the red flag may forever fly at the highest point of the arena. —**Ling Ran** You chase the ice, and I’ve come for you. —**Huo Wenze** --- **Reading Guide:** 1. Ling Ran is the epitome of a Mary Sue. Plot-driven power fantasy, focused on career, double virgins, HE. 2. The shou is the undisputed #1 in figure skating; the gong is a powerhouse in another field. No one outshines the other. 3. No real-life parallels. Some creative liberties, program quality from Ch.10 onward. 4. Two pre-v competitions. Entertainment arc ends within three chapters after v-ing; no whitewashing for antis. (No need to announce if dropping; characters act per their logic; no writing critiques accepted.) 5. Refrain from repeatedly promoting other authors’ works in the comments. Ling Ran is Ling Ran—unique, and deserving of his own story.
