"All contestants are present, and now it's time for me to announce the final score rankings!"
"In the Scoring Competition, the twenty-sixth place is awarded to Zhang Yue, with a score of 77.4!"
As the host's voice fades, a female contestant slowly steps forward.
She manages to squeeze out a dry smile, but there is no hiding the disappointment in her eyes.
Twenty-sixth place may sound decent, but in reality, she's last.
She takes the participation medal from the host and hangs it around her neck. Zhang Yue glances at the other competitors and mutters to herself.
She still has a long way to go.
"Zhang Yue, do you have anything to say?"
Hearing this, Zhang Yue takes the microphone from the host and takes a deep breath.
"I will participate in the next City-level Cooking Competition and hope that I will achieve better results!"
