Just as everyone was praying for good luck, the lottery results were announced: Xu Yingying luckily drew the "Summer" theme; coincidentally, Yu Lili and Sally both drew the "Winter" theme. Such coincidences made people marvel at the wonderful arrangement of fate.

Although Sally wasn't paired with Yu Lili as she had hoped, her confident, almost certain expression clearly showed she was confident of her performance in this competition. Xu Yingying merely glanced at her, her lips curling up slightly in a subtle smile. Perhaps, with full confidence in her own abilities, she was ready to rise to the challenge and triumph.

With the theme chosen, the thrilling competition officially began without delay. Xu Yingying quickly adjusted her mood and immersed herself in her creation. After all, "summer" has always been one of her favorite themes, and of the four given, it was the one she felt most confident in mastering and showcasing her unique style. At this moment, she was like an artist about to splash her brush, eager to leave her own brilliant colors on this canvas of words.

The allotted time was two hours, but surprisingly, after only an hour and a half, Xu Yingying had already completed her painting and submitted it. Just as impressively fast was Sally, who stood side by side in the waiting area, quietly waiting for the other contestants to finish their work.

"You will definitely regret coming to this competition with Yu Lili!" Although she knew that there were cameras in the waiting area, Sally still said these words to Xu Yingying with a smile without hesitation, and it looked as if she was just greeting her in a friendly way.

However, facing Sally's obvious provocation, Xu Yingying did not get angry. She just responded calmly: "Oh? Really? But I don't think it's anything to be afraid of."

Hearing this, Sally couldn't help but snort coldly, a disdainful smile appeared on her face, and she sneered: "What a dead duck, your mouth is still so stubborn!"

Just then, only ten minutes remained until the end of the competition. As the seconds ticked by, each contestant finally completed their carefully crafted designs. The atmosphere in the waiting area grew increasingly tense, as everyone knew that the crucial moment that would determine victory or defeat was about to begin.

According to the prescribed process, it was Xu Yingying and her competitors' turn to submit their carefully crafted works.

Instantly, the floral dress designed by Xu Yingying slowly appeared on the giant screen. A closer look revealed a delicate green base, delicately adorned with orchids. Some were in bud, others were in full bloom, swaying gently in the breeze, emitting bursts of delicate fragrance. Furthermore, the waist of the dress cleverly incorporated pleats, a detail that gave the entire look a subtle, relaxed, yet refreshingly romantic feel.

From the outset of the preliminary round, one female judge had a special fondness for Chen Xinzhu's designs. Whenever she admired Xu Yingying's work, she always perceived a unique spirituality in it. Xu Yingying's designs often break through the constraints of tradition, boldly innovating and bringing unexpected surprises.

Now let's take a look at Xu Yingying's two opponents. The male designer who placed 12th in the previous round also presented a dress that was eye-catching. His design style was more unrestrained and unconventional than that of the other contestants.

Although the three contestants faced the same theme, their works presented distinct styles and unique strengths. After the judges reviewed the three works one by one, they were suddenly faced with a dilemma: should they choose Xu Yingying's fresh, romantic, and slightly lazy design, or the male designer's unrestrained and casual work? Everyone couldn't help but discuss the issue.

Standing outside, Yu Lili's palms were sweating with nervousness. She stared intently at the center of the stage, her heart in her throat. Finally, after a heated discussion, the judges announced the winner: "The winner is...Xu Yingying!" Upon hearing this news, Yu Lili's tense heart finally settled, and she breathed a sigh of relief.

However, Xu Yingying herself was finding it hard to believe at this moment. Could it be that she had really made it to the finals by accident?

After walking off the stage, the young and handsome male designer smiled, extended his hand to Xu Yingying, and said in a friendly manner: "You are really outstanding! I am convinced that I lost to you in this competition." His tone was sincere and frank, and his eyes revealed his sincere admiration for Xu Yingying.

Faced with such sincere praise, Xu Yingying was very humble and polite. She nodded slightly, her lips curled up slightly, and a faint smile appeared in response: "Thank you for the compliment. Actually, everyone is great."

Afterward, Xu Yingying reached out and gently shook hands with the male designer to express her gratitude. However, after the brief greeting, Xu Yingying did not immediately leave the venue, but stood quietly not far from the stage. It turned out that Xu Yingying was patiently waiting for the final results of her friend Yu Lili's competition to be announced.

Meanwhile, Sally, on the other side, confidently turned around, her gaze fixed on Lili. Without hesitation, she presented her meticulously prepared design. Like a dazzling pearl, it instantly captured the attention of everyone present. They whispered in admiration, clearly impressed by Sally's exceptional creativity.

This drawing was the very one Yu Lili had meticulously created in her studio yesterday! However, Xu Yingying didn't seem surprised at all when she saw it, as if everything was within her expectations. Sure enough, the winner of this round was none other than Sally. After Sally left the stage, she stood calmly beside Xu Yingying, a look of unconcealable pride on her face.
