In the final defense session, both Shen You'an and Liu Runxi performed extremely well, but their styles were different: Shen You'an was bold and aggressive, an attacking type, while Liu Runxi was restrained and steady, leaning conservative.
The judging panel actually preferred Liu Runxi's style a bit more and gave him slightly higher scores than Shen You'an.
But in the end, the total score still had him lose to Shen You'an by a single point.
In the eyes of the judges, both of them were extraordinarily gifted genius contestants, like the two sides of a hand—palm and back are both flesh—making it hard to choose.
But this is ultimately an arena of competition; rankings have to be drawn and the champion, runner-up, and second runner-up decided.
The two of them also picked up a Best Collaboration Duo Award.
On the stage, Shen You'an and Liu Runxi, each holding two trophies, exchanged a smile; handsome guy and pretty girl, the picture was downright pleasing to the eye.
