On the stage, a young couple attracted the attention of many people.
The man was tall and handso, the woman petite and beautiful; together on stage, they resembled a couple envied by all.
Apart from the over a hundred contestants and dozens of staff below, countless viewers in front of the TV were deeply moved by this scene.
Gu Lingqian’s affection for Xia Yinian was on full display, sparking endless fantasies among many won.
Who wouldn’t want such a tall, rich, and handso man who dotes on them?
Xia Yinian had long accepted this result; this was her first Alchemy Competition, and no matter what, she had to smile through it.
Life doesn’t have many "what ifs," you can only keep moving forward.
Knowing that if she could finish the last step completely, her performance would have been better, she could feel proud for quite so ti.
Co on, Xia Yinian, you can do it!
Cheering herself on, Xia Yinian faced the people below the stage with a smile.
Suddenly, Yuan Yaying, standing in the champion’s position, jumped down from a platform about one ter high.
She walked over to the Emcee, nodded, and took the microphone from his hand.
"I’m sorry! I’ll just interrupt everyone for a minute or two."
Yuan Yaying bowed slightly to the people below the stage to apologize, then turned to face the judges and the few award recipients.
"Respected judges, I express my heartfelt thanks for the high evaluation you have given ."
"However, it is very clear that today’s champion is not ."
Yuan Yaying’s words left everyone present completely unexpected.
The title of champion of the triennial Alchemy Competition in Ye City alone is worth millions.
No one knew what Yuan Yaying was about to do; she had already been declared champion by the competition, yet she said she wasn’t.
"Please look at the screen," Yuan Yaying waved her hand.
"I don’t know if you’ve noticed Xia Yinian’s results; in the morning’s two events, she scored 4.7 and 4.8 points."
"The top four contestants above her, including myself, did not score more than 4.5 points."
"This ans that Xia Yinian’s alchemical skills are better than those of the four of us, but because of the explosion incident she encountered in the afternoon, her results were brought down."
"I believe everyone should be aware that if it weren’t for this accident, had Xia Yinian been able to complete her competition properly, her scores would have definitely been higher."
"In terms of her ability, I am willing to concede, so I say that the true champion of this year’s competition should be Lady Xia."
Yuan Yaying turned to look at Xia Yinian and nodded affirmatively.
"Whether it’s the judges or friends present, anyone with research in alchemy should know that alchemical expertise is not accidental."
"I rember that even in the previous Alchemy Competition, no selected project scored over 4.5 points."
"Since Xia Yinian could score so high in the morning, I have every reason to believe that what she presented in the afternoon was just a semi-finished product."
"In other words, it wasn’t finished when the accident happened."
Yuan Yaying’s gaze returned to the judges, and she bowed once more to apologize.
"Dear respected judges, I’m sorry for wasting your ti, and I apologize to everyone here!"
"I hope to win based on my true skills, not by luck. I hope the judges will seriously consider my words."
