Soon, after Lü Ming interacted with IU, the scoring results were released on the other side.

As Teacher He brought the scoreboard to the center of the group, even the usually carefree IU couldn't help but feel a little nervous. As for Jeon Ji-yong, he clenched his fists and stared intently at the scoreboard in Teacher He's hand.

"The final scores are in!"

Teacher He glanced around at the expressions on everyone's faces, and then, without hesitation, spoke in order of ranking from lowest to highest.

"Sister Nayin, you scored 74 points this time! You're ranked sixth!"

"I'm sorry, you've been eliminated!"

Teacher He turned his head and said to Na Yin, who was standing to the side.

When she heard the news, Na Yin didn't seem surprised at all, as if she had already guessed the outcome.

For Na Yin, a score of 74 is the highest score she has ever received since participating in the "Asian King" program.

If this score had been achieved in the earlier episodes, advancing would have been absolutely no problem.

However, this time was different from the previous episodes. Everyone performed exceptionally well this time, not to mention the freakish Lu Ming.

So from the very beginning, Na Yin had no confidence in herself.

It's such a pity that Teacher Na Yin is gone!

[Finally, Sister Na Yin can rest a bit. She's been forcing herself to keep going for so long!]

With a lesser-known celebrity like her around, perhaps Sister Yin doesn't need to worry too much!

The story of this 60-year-old woman guarding the nation's border is truly tragic and heroic; it will be remembered for a long time to come!

[Won't HiHuka be next? This time, two contestants are going to be eliminated!]

Don't worry, it's absolutely impossible! If this nobody gets eliminated after this performance, it just means those judges are idiots! Do you think that's possible?

[Does that mean the next episode will feature obscure celebrities guarding the national border?]

Soon, Teacher He revealed the second eliminated contestant, Kenshi Yonezu from the island nation, who scored a high score of 80.

In fact, Kenshi Yonezu's performance was not bad, in fact, it was very good, otherwise he would not have gotten a high score of 80.

If this had happened in one of the earlier episodes, a score of 80 would have likely put him in the top three, let alone advanced.

However, in this chaotic battle of the gods, Kenshi Yonezu was like an 'incompetent husband,' unable to change the outcome despite his best efforts.

Upon learning the result, Kenshi Yonezu showed a slight disappointment on his face.

When Kenshi Yonezu first learned that Lü Ming was going to participate in the show, he thought the same as Quan Zhilong: that Lü Ming was just there to make a cameo appearance and wouldn't affect the advancement of the competition.

But no one expected that Lü Ming, who seemed like a cute and harmless little rabbit to them, was actually a shark that had rushed into the fish tank and overturned it.

He tragically became a victim of Lü Ming's participation in the competition, and also became the first foreign singer to be eliminated in the entire "Asian King" program.

Although he was somewhat disappointed by his elimination, Kenshi Yonezu did not believe that he had been manipulated or that there was any inside story involved.

As a singer, he knew perfectly well that the performances of those ahead of him were almost all significantly better than his.

As Kenshi Yonezu accepted this fact, Teacher He announced the scores of the next few people one after another, namely Ayumi Hamasaki in fifth place and Miyuki Nakajima in fourth place.

As Teacher He gradually announced the scores of the other contestants, only the scores of Lü Ming, IU, and Quan Zhilong remained to be announced.

Upon seeing this result, netizens watching on the screen instantly became excited and tense, their eyes scanning up and down among the remaining contestants.

Based on the current situation, Lü Ming should be able to secure at least a top-three finish.

As a contestant who was invited at the last minute, Lü Ming's performance was already amazing enough.

To be honest, at the beginning, no one had much confidence in Lü Ming. They even thought that Lü Ming's advancement would be a great success, let alone his current guaranteed top-three finish, which is a completely unexpected surprise.

"iu!"

"Congratulations on achieving a high score of 88!"

After pausing for a moment, fully piquing the curiosity of the audience both at the venue and in front of the screen, He Jiong finally spoke to IU, who was standing next to him, to congratulate her.

An 88-point score is enough to prove how successful IU's previous performances were; in the earlier episodes, this would definitely have been a first-place finish.

"Thank you!"

After hearing Teacher He's congratulations, IU responded very politely.

As long as she can advance, that's enough. Whether she can get first place or not is irrelevant to IU.

Putting aside IU's unassuming and uncompetitive personality, her current status as a national treasure-level singer on the Korean Peninsula means she no longer needs achievements to prove her strength.

For IU now, the only thing she hopes to do on this show is to meet Lü Ming again.

After IU's score was announced, only the scores of Lü Ming and Quan Zhilong remained to be announced.

Because of the previous bet, everyone couldn't help but look at Lü Ming and Quan Zhilong with some curiosity.

Regardless of who wins first place this time, there will definitely be plenty of talking points to discuss.

At this moment, even Quan Zhilong, who always thought he had a strong heart, couldn't help but feel his heart pounding and his eyes filled with nervousness as he looked at the scrutinizing gazes directed at him.

"Mr. Quan Zhilong, congratulations on getting a score of 89!"

"As for Lü Ming, you have scored 95 points!"

"Congratulations, Lü Ming! Congratulations on winning first place this time!"

When announcing the scores of the last two people, Teacher He seemed to know what netizens wanted to know at that moment. He didn't keep them in suspense and directly announced the scores of Lü Ming and Quan Zhilong.

"Ruined!"

Upon hearing Teacher He's words, Quan Zhilong, who was standing to the side, did not react. Instead, he saw that Fatty Du, who was following behind Quan Zhilong, collapsed to the ground with a look of despair, his eyes seemingly devoid of any hope of living.

You have to understand that he made a bet with Lü Ming before. If Lü Ming's final ranking was above Quan Zhilong's, he would curse Quan Zhilong as a dog in front of countless people!
Fatty Du had not expected this result at all.

In Du Pangzi's mind, Lü Ming's advancement was already incredibly lucky, and ranking above Quan Zhilong was simply impossible.

Upon hearing the result, Quan Zhilong, who was standing to the side, showed a hint of dissatisfaction on his face. Then, looking at the slumped-on-the-ground Fatty Du, a hint of displeasure flashed in his eyes.

Being outshone by Lü Ming was already a humiliation for Quan Zhilong, but the thought of being scolded by Fatty Du made him even angrier.

It's all that fat Du's fault!

If it weren't for his meddling, he might not have suffered this humiliation. Meanwhile, the audience at the scene and the netizens in front of their screens couldn't contain their excitement upon learning that Lü Ming had scored a high score of 95 and won first place in this episode, and happily congratulated Lü Ming online.

[Lü Ming is awesome, even the washed-up guy is awesome!]

We are number one, and we will always be number one!

I had completely given up on this show, but unexpectedly, the fact that it's a flop has given me a renewed sense of pride!

[It seems like no one has ever scored above 90 points in all these episodes, so this nobody's 95 points is absolutely well-deserved!]

[The key is that the song is just too good; even as a fan of Jeon Ji-yong, I couldn't help but get immersed in it!]

[Huh? Jeon Ji-yong? Don't you all call him Oppa?]

[What oppa? I only have one idol right now, and that's the great washed-up celebrity!]

[Hahaha! This is so true! It completely shuts down those stubborn people!]

[Enough said. It's good that you admit your mistakes and can correct them. I believe you will move forward confidently and energetically, just as Huka said!]

[The person upstairs is right. If I hadn't checked your background, I almost would have believed you, you old troll!]

"Shouldn't you be doing something now?"

After briefly responding to everyone's congratulations, Lü Ming looked at Fatty Du, whose face was full of despair, with a hint of disdain and said coldly to him.

Upon hearing Lü Ming's words, Fatty Du couldn't help but shudder. At this moment, he finally felt a pang of regret.

"I know I was wrong. We're all compatriots, can you please be forgiving and forgive me this time?"

Fatty Du knew Lu Ming's personality. If he dared to run away, Lu Ming would probably beat him up again. So, he had no choice but to look at Lu Ming pleadingly, hoping that the other party would let him go this time.

Fatty Du knew perfectly well that if he actually did what he was told in the bet, his future would be completely ruined, and he was very hesitant.

"Who the hell is your compatriot! When you knelt down before, why didn't you think about the fact that we're all compatriots?"

"Will you spare me this time? If I lose, will you spare me?"

Lu Ming looked at the shameless Fatty Du and replied irritably, then said fiercely to him, "If you don't talk today, don't blame me for not giving you face!"

Seeing Lü Ming clenching his fists, Fatty Du knew that he had no other choice at this moment.

He didn't need to argue about the bet he just agreed to in front of so many people.

"Quan Zhilong, you're a dog!"

Fatty Du gritted his teeth, leaned close to Quan Zhilong, and whispered, "Idol, I'm sorry! I was forced into this!"

"Haven't you eaten? Speak louder!"

Seeing the soft-spoken Fatty Du, Lü Ming's face showed a hint of dissatisfaction. He then clenched his fists and took a few steps closer to Fatty Du, eager to do something.

"Quan Zhilong, you're a dog!"

"Quan Zhilong, you're a dog!"

"Quan Zhilong, you're a dog!"

Seeing this, Fatty Du didn't hesitate at all and immediately shouted loudly.

At this moment, Fatty Du didn't have time to consider the potential consequences; the most important thing now was to complete this bet as soon as possible.

Upon hearing Fatty Du's words, the audience below the stage couldn't help but burst into cheerful laughter, as if the entire live broadcast hall were an amusement park.

The cheerful laughter sounded like a humiliating insult, as it slapped Quan Zhilong's face repeatedly, making him turn ashen-faced.

Quan Zhilong hadn't expected that Fatty Du would be so unprincipled. Just a moment ago, he was making solemn promises to him, but the next second he started spewing nonsense without the slightest hesitation.

Although Quan Zhilong knew that Lü Ming was the one who started all of this, Fatty Du was also implicated and held a grudge against him.

If he had the chance in the future, he would definitely not let Lü Ming and Fatty Du go.

If Fatty Du knew the hatred Quan Zhilong felt for him at this moment, he would probably be kicking himself.

The reason he provoked Lü Ming, and even knelt down before Quan Zhilong on the live broadcast of "Asian King" without any scruples, was simply to curry favor with Quan Zhilong.

But now, not only has he failed to please Quan Zhilong, he has also made Quan Zhilong resent him a bit.

Stealing the chicken is losing the rice!

This phrase perfectly describes Fatty Du's current state.

With all the scores announced, this episode of "Asian Kings" is drawing to a close.

"Idol, idol!"

"where is my present?"

At this moment, the little girl who had suddenly realized her mistake came to the front of the stage, waved her hand at Lü Ming, and shouted loudly.

The little girl had been keeping in mind Lü Ming's promise to give her a gift after the concert.

At first, the girl was excited about Lu Ming giving her a gift, but she didn't seem to care much about it.

But after returning to the audience seats and hearing the envious comments from those around her, she immediately felt excited. Even when she listened to Lü Ming's performance before, she had been thinking about this.

"Oh!"

"Come up here, I'll get you your gift right away!"

Upon seeing the little girl, Lü Ming patted his head with delight. After inviting her up, he went to the staff member he had previously instructed and took a heavy-looking package from them.

"Is this the gift for me?"

Looking at the gift that was wrapped up tightly in front of her, the little girl excitedly leaned closer, ready to open it and let the people below envy her.

"Yes!"

"I don't know how old you are or what grade you're in, so I had someone specially buy all the Huanggang practice exams from the first year of junior high to the third year of senior high, to make sure you have them for every grade!"

"This is only part of it; I'll have someone personally deliver the rest to your home!"

The little girl had just opened the package with anticipation, but when she saw the densely packed exam papers inside, her expression turned slightly gloomy before she heard Lü Ming's words, which were almost piercing to the heart. (End of Chapter)
