A portion of viewers promptly posted comments voicing their disapproval and advocating for a boycott of Cara's performance.

Others remained relatively indifferent to what happened between Clare and Cara. As long as Cara's performance skills didn't disappoint them, they were inclined to stay and enjoy the concert.

Concurrently, Clare posted an update on Twitter once more.

“Friends, let's not boycott the concert. We're all music enthusiasts here. Tonight, we'll enjoy the concert together through the live stream."

Her statement garnered an immediate wave of support from her fans.

"That's our girl! Clare, you're the best!"

"Clare's words are reasonable. We've seen her performance before. Now, it's a great opportunity to discern the distinction. Let's witness how Cara interprets these masterpieces!"

“My camera has been set up. I'll edit solo clips of both Clare and Cara and then share them online with everyone. I'm curious about the concert organizers' reaction to these videos."

Clare grinned with contentment as she read the comments on her Twitter account.

Amidst the taunting remarks, it was now Cara's moment to take the stage.

"What? Compared to my Clare, she appears quite ordinary!" remarked one member of the audience with sarcasm.

As the camera zoomed in for close-ups, Cara's freckles became apparent on her face.

In reality, her makeup was quite minimal.

Cara's attire for the performance had been borrowed temporarily from the folk band. While she appeared simple and elegant, she lacked the presence of a leading performer.

Yet, during Clare's live streaming, she had meticulously selected her attire and accessories.

During this moment, Cara's initial impression on the audience was admittedly less striking than Clare's.

However, they quickly noticed the clarity in Cara's eyes and her gentle, serene expression. While her first impression might not have been stellar, careful observers began to sense the charm of a girl- next-door quality about her.

"You know what? Cara doesn't seem all that unlikable after all..."

A message appeared in the bullet chat, and many others quickly echoed the sentiment.

A justice-minded internet user even countered, “Cease the personal attacks on Cara based on her appearance. I know you are one of the Clare's fans. Mind your decorum and spare yourselves and your cherished idol from embarrassment!"

"Clang!" The Ancient Zither resounded with a strike.

The opening song was none other than “Watering the Horses."

The bullet chat abruptly fell silent!

The audience discovered that Cara's performance was, in fact, superior to Clare's... It was genuinely distinctive, diverging from Clare's rendition.
