After the judges had eaten and drunk their fill, they began the scoring phase.

Even though they hadn't started scoring yet, everyone had already guessed that Yuan Hua's score would definitely not be lower than Shen Tao's.

Putting everything else aside, just looking at the judges' expressions and the incident of clothes ripping off is enough to tell.

No matter how powerful Shen Tao was, he still didn't manage to have his clothes ripped off.

This shows that there is still a significant difference between the two dishes.

So the result is easy to guess, but the exact score depends on the judges' final score.

Faced with this situation, Shen Tao was the most helpless.

Just two minutes ago I had the highest score, but before I could even feel happy, someone else was about to overtake me. It's kind of pathetic.

Other contestants were both angry and helpless when they saw Yuan Hua's situation.

Two such formidable competitors appeared right from the start; how are they supposed to survive the rest of the competition?

The funniest one is Tang Haohan, because he has basically not caught any fish so far.

There were only two tiny fish, each about the size of a little finger, in the bucket.

Everyone else was busy cooking, but he was the only one waiting silently by the sea for the fish to bite.

However, it seemed that fate was playing a joke on him, and no fish seemed to bite the hook.

Even if there is movement, it's only occasionally that you notice the float move slightly and then there's no further movement. Then, when you take the hook up, you find that all the bait is gone.

I don't know what kind of fish is so smart that it can quietly eat all the bait.

Soon, the scores from the judges were displayed on the screen.

[Contestant No. 44, Yuan Hua.]

[Scores: 99.1, 99.2, 99.1, 99.2, 99.2]

Total Score: 495.8

When the scores were announced, everyone present, including the contestants, staff, and viewers watching on screens, cheered with excitement.

I never expected Yuan Hua to score over 99 points today.

If this continues, they could very well challenge for the championship.

As it stands, it seems only Lu Rong can fight him; the others probably really can't.

Especially for some of the lower-ranked players, they could only watch one by one, their eyes filled with despair.

They are actually very talented; they just had bad luck and encountered such formidable opponents.

In previous years, they might have been able to make it into the top three, but now even reaching the quarterfinals is a distant dream.

The most excited people were the viewers in front of their screens.

After all, the point of watching a show is to have fun and get excited. Seeing the contestants getting stronger and stronger makes me look forward to the upcoming competitions even more.

"I never expected Yuan Hua to be so talented. He can get such a high score with just a little effort. Lu Rong is in trouble now."

"Don't rush, Lu Rong hasn't even started yet, maybe his score will be even higher."

"I think we should still trust Lu Rong. When has he ever let us down these past few days? So don't underestimate yourselves just because other contestants are doing a little better."

"I feel like the other contestants are about to go crazy. It would be fine if they lost to someone else, but losing to Yuan Hua, who only knows how to play games, is infuriating."

"If it were me, I would be angry too, but there's nothing I can do. They're just naturally talented. No matter how hard you try, it's not enough. They're just better than you with ease."

"As the saying goes, comparing yourself to others will only make you miserable. This is exactly what it means. But there is no absolute fairness in this world, so you can only work harder."

"We'll see. If Lu Rong and Shen Lanxin don't perform as well as Yuan Hua later, then Yuan Hua is very likely to win the championship today."

"Today is the quarterfinals, and 8 out of 13 people will be selected to enter tomorrow's competition. This means that almost half of the people will be eliminated, so the elimination rate is quite high."

"Anyway, it doesn't matter who gets eliminated, but Lu Rong and Shen Lanxin absolutely cannot be eliminated. I came here specifically for them."

"The person upstairs makes a good point. I just think those two are interesting. To be honest, I don't remember much about the others."

……....

Because Yuan Hua's score was so high, some of the contestants in the audience were starting to get anxious, since they might be eliminated if things continued this way.

However, the situation on the ground left them no room for countermeasures, and it seemed pointless in the face of overwhelming strength; they could only accept their fate.

Next, the staff served another dish.

Since everyone is getting their ingredients by fishing today, most of the dishes are fish.

After all, it's quite difficult to catch other things.

The next dish was made by Shen Lanxin.

Upon seeing that it was Shen Lanxin, everyone became serious.

After all, Shen Lanxin's performance a few days ago was similar to that of Lu Rong and Yuan Hua.

So whether Shen Lanxin can surpass Yuan Hua's previous performance remains to be seen.

Even the judges, including Li Shangui, took it seriously when they saw that it was Shen Lanxin's dish.

The initial cheerful mood has completely vanished, as the ratings have now entered a heated phase.

The contestants are just too good. Unlike yesterday, where the skill gap was so large that it was easy to judge who was good and who was bad.

Nowadays, everyone's dishes are top-notch, so to say which contestant is better, the pressure of scoring is actually quite high for them.

They also want to use their best abilities to select the most authentic scores and ensure that every contestant's score is treated fairly.

At this moment, what was placed in front of them was still a grouper recipe.
