At this time, nearly half of Lee Ji-eun's performance in the arena had passed, and he was doing a rather difficult swallow-style spin, which was both fast and graceful, so that the audience on the sidelines couldn't help but applaud. Maybe this action is nothing for professional athletes, but for the ten performers of this show, it is a very difficult action, and the rest of the players, including Xiao Jing, may not be able to make this action, and it is even more difficult to do it beautifully.

Of course, this is also because the focus of this round of competition is lifting, not spinning, so most of the players have not practiced in this area, and the reason why Zhang Chengyuan asked his doppelganger to teach Lee Ji-eun this action and let her show it today is because he thinks this spin is very beautiful, dazzling, and quite difficult, so that the audience and judges can really feel that Lee Ji-eun's skating skills have indeed improved a lot, and even has come from behind, surpassing most of the players. In this way, it is very likely to get a relatively high judge's score and rose score.

Shortly after doing the swallow spin, Lee Ji-eun followed up with a bow spin and a crouch spin, which were equally standard and graceful, further reinforcing the impression that her personal skills were already quite proficient.

Xiao Crystal said in surprise: "Brother, you just said that Sister Zhien's figure skating skills are about to catch up with me, I still don't believe it, but now it seems that she is about to catch up with me, it seems that she has surpassed me, at least I can't do these spins skillfully." ”

Zhang Chengyuan said: "You have been practicing lifting movements recently, and you haven't practiced spinning much, so naturally you can't make these movements proficiently." ”

Xiao Jing said: "But in the morning rehearsal." I found that Sister Ji-eun's lifting was also quite good. ”

Zhang Chengyuan said: "That means that Ji-eun's progress is greater than yours." You'll have to work harder in the future. lest you really be surpassed by her in the future, then you, the person who boasts that you want to take the first place, will be disgraced. ”

When it came to lifting, Lee Ji-eun and Choi In-ho also began to do a spinning lift, Lee Ji-eun was picked up by Choi In-ho by the waist, and then rotated to his back by him, like a delphinium resting on the tip of the eaves, with a beautiful posture. Then Cui Renhe quickly spun on the ice with Lee Ji-eun on his back, and it took seven or eight turns before stopping, which caused a round of applause. I can't see this Cui Renhe who is thin and weak, but he is very powerful, Zhang Chengyuan was a little surprised when he saw it, of course, this is also because Li Zhien's body is very light.

After that, he did a few less strenuous dance transitions, Lee Ji-eun and Choi In-ho did a spin lift again, and Lee Ji-eun raised his right leg high and placed it on Choi In-ho's shoulder, and the two legs were in a straight line. Then Choi In-ho hugged her waist with one hand and her right ankle with the other. Lifted her up, and spun it around quickly. Compared to the previous lift, I can't tell which one is more difficult, but the posture is just as beautiful, and it also received bursts of applause and cheers from the audience.

After nearly ten turns, Choi In-ho put Lee Ji-eun down, and then made a beautiful finishing move, and the whole performance ended here. Throughout their performances, Lee Ji-eun showed not only her increasingly progressive individual skills, but also the good understanding between her and his partner, and throughout the performance, their movements echoed each other and were very coordinated, and there were no mistakes.

In addition, in terms of acting skills, they also did a good job, showing various expressions such as strictness, cheerfulness, and pain to the fullest, and their body movements were also quite intense and powerful, which fully reflected the theme of their performance today "Matador and Cow". Of course, from an artistic point of view, there is still a long way to go compared to the authentic bullfight, but it is rare for them to be able to do so well on the ice.

This can be seen from the audience's expression, they did not hesitate to send the warmest applause and passionate cheers after the performance, and the rose evaluation team also threw out the roses in their hands one after another, Zhang Chengyuan quickly counted them, about 95, a few more than the number of roses Chen Zhixi just obtained.

The four judges also praised it, and gave scores of 8.9., 9.1, 8.6, and 8.5 respectively, with a total score of 35.1, which is 0.5 points higher than the 34.6 points that Xiao Jing just hoped for, plus the number of roses is also more than Chen Zhixi, so Li Zhien has ensured that he will not be eliminated.

As for whether Zhang Chengyuan did anything at this time, it seems that there is no need to say at this time, anyway, if someone asks, Zhang Chengyuan will never admit it, he only knows that Li Zhien's table today deserves this score. And Xiao Jing didn't suspect Zhang Chengyuan, at this time she only cared about clapping her hands and cheering, happy for Li Zhien, and had long forgotten that Zhang Chengyuan had just told her that the judges' scores and the number of roses could be artificially manipulated.

After that, the last pair of players remained, Kim Byung-wan and Lee so-kyung. They were the first winners of the last competition, and they were 2.8 points higher than the second place Little Crystal, of which the judges' score was 2.3 points higher, which can be said to be quite obvious.

This time, however, they performed exceptionally well, perfecting almost every aspect, and ended up with a score of 36.7 and became champions again. Even more surprising was that two judges gave a high score of 9.5 at the same time, and if it weren't for the other judge's inexplicable 8.6, their scores might have been higher.

As soon as she saw this result, Xiao Jing immediately became a little frustrated, she performed very well today, scoring a high score of 36.3 points, thinking that it was possible to win the first place in this round of the competition, but after all, she lost to Jin Bingwan again.

Zhang Chengyuan comforted: "Although you lost again, isn't the gap between you and Jin Bingwan narrowing?" Narrowing it down from 2.3 to 0.4, maybe you could overtake him in the next match. ”

Hearing Zhang Chengyuan say this, Xiao Jing suddenly rejoiced, and said: "Brother, you are right, I will be even better next time, and I will definitely catch up with Jin Bingwan's predecessors." ”

Zhang Chengyuan said: "Although I may not necessarily be able to surpass him, it is still good to have this kind of confidence." Okay, let's go back to the lounge and wait for the staff to tell you to do the final recording before coming out. "At the end of each performance, the venue is cleared for the audience to leave, and then the score is counted before the results are recorded again, which takes a lot of time before the recording.

Xiao Jing nodded, and then took Zhang Chengyuan's arm and went to the backstage lounge.

After entering the lounge and greeting everyone, the two of them walked up to Lee Ji-eun to congratulate her, and at this time Lee Ji-eun had already realized that he should be able to enter the next round, so he was not surprised by their congratulations, of course he was still very happy.

It's just that because the other actors are also there, including the two pairs of contestants who will be eliminated, she doesn't smile much, although she is already very happy in her heart - from the initial penultimate to more than eighth? How can you not be proud, how can you not be happy? And this is the result of more than two months of hard work. As for whether she will be eliminated from the next competition, where will she think about it now?

Then Zhang Chengyuan, Cheng Youli, Xiao Jing and others got together again to chat, and after about ten minutes, the staff came to inform the players to come out for the final recording, and because they already knew the general result, Zhang Chengyuan did not go out this time, but still sat in the lounge with Cheng Youli, Li Zhen, and Zheng Xiuyan, and watched the recording on the skating rink through the Guò TV monitoring screen.

The announcement of the results was directly announced from the first place to the eighth place in order, and then let each pair of players say a word or two from their hearts. As for the ninth and tenth place results, there is no need to announce them, they are all eliminated anyway.

Among them, the pair of Kim Byung-wan and Lee so-kyung unsurprisingly won the first place, the second place was Xiao Jingjing and Lee Dong-hoon, Lee Ji-eun ranked seventh, up one place from the last competition, and one place lower than her is Jung Yoon-ho, this time he is still below Lee Ji-eun, but not necessarily next time. As for the eliminated players, they are Chen Zhixi > Cha Junhuan, Seo Ji-seok & Yoo Sun-hye.

After learning the result, Seo Ji-seok and Yoo Sun-hye were quite sad, but they were quite calm, while the two children, Chen Ji-hee and Cha Jun-hwan, cried on the spot, which made the other players feel a little uncomfortable. The three daughters of Li Zhen, Cheng Youli, and Zheng Xiuyan in the lounge were also a little sad after watching it.

Only Zhang Chengyuan, his heart is very hard, it is not a matter at all, anyway, these two children have nothing to do with him, and if they don't play, Li Zhien may be out, instead of watching Li Zhien feel sad after being eliminated, it is better to watch them cry, besides, the two of them are not as strong as other players, and it is natural to be out.

After a while, the recording ended, the contestants went to remove their makeup and change their costumes, Zhang Chengyuan and others continued to chat and wait for Li Zhien and Xiao Jing, and after they finished changing their clothes, they said goodbye to them and left.

The six people sat in two cars, one was Zhang Chengyuan, Cheng Youli, Li Zhen and Xiao Jing, and Zhang Chengyuan was driving; One is Zheng Xiuyan and Li Zhien, driven by Zheng Xiuyan, and the car is Zheng Xiuyan's private car, that is, the Ferrari that Zhang Chengyuan gave her two or three years ago. As for the nanny car that Lee Ji-eun and Xiao Jing took before, their assistants drove back to the company separately.

The group first returned to Gangnam, Seoul. District, and then Zheng Xiuyan's car drove to the JSW mall, she and Lee Ji-eun were ready to practice skating at the underground skating rink in the JSW mall, just now Zheng Xiuyan was so excited by Jang Sung-won that she agreed to show him his skating skills, so she had to practice first, and Lee Ji-eun led the way for her and practiced with her.

And Zhang Chengyuan and the others had to go home first, because Cheng Youli had been out for a long time and felt a little tired and wanted to go home to rest, and Li Zhen naturally accompanied her, and at the same time arranged dinner tonight. However, after sending them home, Jang Sung-won took Xiao Jing to JSW Mall to meet up with Jung so-yeon and Lee Ji-eun. (To be continued......)
