Five minutes later, Qianxun finished her speech.
The judges regained their composure, exchanged glances, and began to score.
Seeing this, Mu Chenfeng couldn’t help but scoff to himself.
In Mu Chenfeng’s view, several parts of Qianxun’s speech differed from the vocabulary they usually learned, probably because she chose the wrong words momentarily. Consequently, her score would definitely not be higher than his!
Yet, when several judges held up their scoring boards, Mu Chenfeng’s expression froze instantly, disbelief evident in his eyes.
Except for one old teacher who gave Qianxun 9 points, the other nine gave her ten points each!
That would make Qianxun’s total score 99 points!
How was that possible?
She even made mistakes in her word choices!
Upon seeing her score, Qianxun neither rejoiced nor frowned but calmly said, "Thank you for the scores, teachers."
At that moment, the judges began their feedback.
"Su Qianxun, you really surprised us today. Your pronunciation was excellent, and your speech was fantastic!"
"Ignore the content—for your Queen’s Accent alone, I give you 10 points!" It was rare to find someone who could speak naturally and fluently like the Queen of England.
When it was the old teacher’s turn, he spoke seriously, but his words were rather amusing, "Your speech was impeccable, giving you one less point to prevent arrogance! Keep striving in the future!"
This remark immediately triggered laughter throughout the venue.
Qianxun also smiled and gracefully said, "Thank you for the feedback, teachers."
With that, the first place was without a doubt.
Meanwhile, the person who posted on Haijiao Forum had already shared photos from the scene.
"As expected, Heavenly Sister easily clinched the first place, receiving unanimous praise from ten professional English teachers! Giving one point less was because the old teacher feared she’d become arrogant!"
Seeing the accompanying pictures, the netizens burst out laughing.
"Hahaha, old teacher, you’re quite cheeky!"
Meanwhile, people at the scene were posting, "It’s a pity for those who couldn’t come, listening to Heavenly Sister’s speech was really mesmerizing!"
"As someone who knows no English, I felt she was shining brightly on stage; her presence is just so powerful!"
"I took a video; I’ll show you later! The perfect Queen’s Accent—English majors can judge whether it is."
After the speeches, it was time for the award ceremony.
As Qianxun walked by Mu Chenfeng, holding the first-place trophy with noble and graceful poise, she stopped in the center of the stage.
When a local TV station’s reporter came to interview her and asked for her thoughts on the award, Qianxun simply stated, "In any competition, my goal is only one, to be the first! And this time, I just reached my goal once again."
Upon hearing this, Mu Chenfeng nearly crushed the silver trophy in his hands.
However, remembering there were many cameras around, he desperately controlled his expression.
Just as he was hoping the reporter would ask him for his insights, Qianxun told the reporter, "I need to prepare for this afternoon’s calligraphy competition, so I’ll be leaving first."
As soon as Qianxun departed, so did the reporters, with no intention of interviewing Mu Chenfeng further.
Seeing this, Mu Chenfeng nearly broke his silver teeth in frustration.
Meanwhile, in Yanjing City.
Dressed in a sharp suit, Huo Tianzun sat in his office, his expression tender as he watched the confident and overbearing young girl on the stage.
Just then, a disheveled young man with a lollipop in his mouth burst in, "Boss, the press conference is about to start, why are you still here?"
