Shen, realizing his opponent's intention, immediately launched a counterattack, "Publicly apologize to my mentor!"
The look cast down from the stage was filled with unmistakable severity and indifference.
Yet, Chu Jinghong remained remarkably calm under the onslaught, a barely perceptible smile playing across his lips. "There's no doubt your teacher is exceptionally gifted; however, labeling him an absolute master wouldn't be entirely accurate. To become a leading figure in the art world requires an understanding that transcends mere technical skill."
As soon as these words fell, the already high enthusiasm in the room intensified. "Haha! Since you think it's impossible, doesn't that mean you're the real genius? If that's the case, why don't you just stand up and prove it to everyone?"

Her words stopped abruptly and she did not continue. After all, she did not want Chu Jinghong to completely lose confidence.
If Chu Jinghong was only competing against an opponent like Pang Yu, perhaps he still had a chance of winning; but now the question was about defeating a music giant - Apache - in piano playing. This was as incredible as asking Hawking to compete with Bolt in a 100-meter race.
Seeing Lu Jingyi's expression change, Chu Jinghong's eyes contained both helplessness and a joking element: "Women, have confidence in your men."
