Feng Xi's sudden attack stunned everyone in the hall.
Although many people were a little emotional when they suddenly announced Feng Xi's defeat, they did not feel surprised when they thought about the almost reckless addition of the raw materials.
He even shared the same thoughts as the fat judge. He thought that Elder Su's protection was purely because he loved talent and couldn't bear to see Feng Xi stop here.
Not to mention the people who were happy because of this, such as Young Master Zhou and the tall and thin player.
However, Feng Xi's appearance was like a sharp warning to everyone. Everyone's mood was stirred up. In an instant, their gazes landed on the two of them.
"What do you mean? Are you suspecting that I'm deliberately faking it?”
The fat judge didn't stop Feng Xi's actions. His face turned slightly red, and a trace of panic flashed in his eyes. However, he quickly calmed down and spoke sternly, wanting to seize the moral high ground.
"I know you're unwilling to accept this, but don't think that with Elder Su's protection, everyone has to flatter you. This is a competition, and we uphold the belief of fairness and justice!”
His words were reasonable and well-founded. It was simply impossible to refute. Even Elder Su had to admit that in terms of scheming, he was indeed far inferior to this fatty in front of him.
Looking at Feng Xi in front of him, he felt very uncomfortable. This glass of Manhattan was the best Manhattan he had ever drunk in his life. He really did not know what kind of benefits these guys had received to be able to go against their wishes.
The fat judge's words resonated with many people. The crowd discussed animatedly and buzzed. There was even someone like that skinny and tall fellow who directly snorted,"A country bumpkin is a country bumpkin. After becoming a champion, do you really think you're invincible?”
"Who do you think you are!"
Without waiting for Feng Xi to speak, Bai Xiaoxiao snorted and raised her finger to glare at the man.
The man's expression changed. It was really embarrassing to be scolded by a woman in public. However, he had to admit that Bai Xiaoxiao's strength was indeed amazing.
Even if Merlin Danton was confident that he could do it as well as Bai Xiaoxiao, his technique was far from what he could do.
He snorted and ignored Bai Xiaoxiao. He continued to look at Feng Xi and sneered,""Relying on the old man's favor and the protection of a woman, hiding behind the scenes all the time, you really can't be considered a man!”
Feng Xi grinned and turned around.”
"You!"
Meng Yuan's expression was very ugly. Feng Xi's words were indeed correct. The competition had been going on for so long, but he had never seen a contestant who dared to question the judges. Feng Xi was indeed ingenious and could be considered the first person.
Such a person who stood out was really not hiding behind the old man and the woman.
Meng Yuan, who was momentarily at a loss for words, snorted and turned his head away without saying another word. In his opinion, Feng Xi's defeat was already set in stone, and there was absolutely no turning back.
Bai Xiaoxiao and Miss Feng stared at the slender figure with burning eyes, their hearts filled with anxiety.
"Are you done?"
Feng Xi retracted his gaze and continued to look at the fat judge. He smiled and said,"If you're done, it's my turn!"
As he spoke, he grabbed a glass of ice water from the table where the competition had just taken place and showed it to everyone present, including the judges. He smiled and said,"Everyone can see what this is. It's just ice water, and it's all provided by the organizers. Everyone knows the taste of ice water, right?”
The crowd couldn't help but laugh. What else could ice water taste like? Feng Xi was probably already dumbfounded.
Fang Xu turned a deaf ear to all of this. He raised his hand and flipped the cup. The small wine cups that the fat judge had taken from him were all filled with ice water.
"Why don't the judges have a taste of this ice water?”
As he spoke, he poured a cup for each of the judges.
"Bah!"
Elder Su was actually the first to spit it out after just touching it. His face was filled with an ugly expression as he said,"What are these things? It tastes like coptis!"
Immediately after, the other judges also had ugly expressions on their faces. All of them widened their eyes and looked at the cup in their hands in disbelief. Their faces were filled with shock.
How was this possible?
The ice water was served to the table by the organizer, which meant that it had been specially inspected. Of course, it could not have the taste of coptis. However, this cup of water was indeed extremely bitter, even more bitter than coptis.
The fat judge's expression gradually turned ugly. However, in front of everyone, it was not appropriate for him to get up and leave. He just sat in his original position awkwardly, but his head slowly lowered, not daring to look at Feng Xi.
The latter, on the other hand, had a calm expression. He smiled as he picked up another glass of ice water and found another glass to pour for the judges. He smiled and said,"Everyone, try it again?"
The judges, including Elder Su, looked at each other and tried to pour the ice water in their cups into their mouths. Immediately, the expressions of each judge became interesting.
Other than the icy cold feeling, there was no other taste. Instead, it washed away the bitter taste in his mouth.
"What's going on?"
It wasn't just the judges. The crowd below the stage also voiced their doubts. The people who had just mocked Feng Xi were now dumbfounded.
"Why don't you tell me what's going on?”
Feng Xi's gaze turned and landed on the fat judge. He smiled and said,"I think you have the most say in this matter, right?”
As she spoke, she reached out and grabbed the few remaining small cups and handed them to him." Mix coptis root with Angustra bitter wine, then brush a thin film on it. As long as the liquid comes into contact with it, it will quickly fuse into it without leaving a trace.”
"Did I say anything wrong?"
The fat judge had already buried his head under the table. If not for the fact that there were too many people here, he would have already slipped away.
"Fatty Zhou!"
Hearing this, Elder Su was the first to be furious. He slammed the table and stood up. He glared at him and shouted,"I see that you're usually conscientious and conscientious. Did water enter your brain today? You actually played such a trick?"
The other judges were also embarrassed. They did not expect that as a judge, he was not as cunning as a contestant. He had easily become the accomplice of the fat judge.
If this matter was exposed in the future instead of being exposed here, they would probably not be able to survive in the bartending world in the future.
"So your surname is also Zhou. I saw that there's a Young Master Zhou in the audience who has been silently watching this place!”Feng Xi looked at the fat man's silent expression and sneered. He suddenly turned around and raised his hand to point at a position.
Swoosh! Swoosh!
Everyone's eyes, including the judges and contestants, were fixed on that spot. Poor Young Master Zhou was like a thief who had been caught. Before he could get up, everyone's eyes were locked on him.
"Feng Xi, what do you mean?"
Zhou Xiong calmed himself down. He was confident that this matter had nothing to do with him. At least for now, Feng Xi did not find any evidence that he was involved.
So what if they had the same surname? There were so many people with the same surname in the world. A mere surname could not explain anything!
Feng Xi took out his phone unhurriedly and opened the recording. Immediately after, the fat judge's voice came out slowly. Although he deliberately lowered his voice, he could still hear it clearly.
"Don't worry, this time I'll make sure that Feng Xi can't make a comeback. Young Master Zhou, just get ready to watch a good show!”
This sentence was neither too much nor too little, but it conveyed all the important information. Anyone could tell that this was undoubtedly the fat judge's voice.
"This is slander!"
"Is that so?"
Feng Xi smiled at Young Master Zhou, who was almost crazy. He looked at the fat judge and said,""Why don't you take out your phone? I want to see who this call is for!”
"What else do you want? Hand it over!"
Elder Su shouted angrily. The fat judge did not dare to be negligent. Now that everything had been exposed, his career in bartending was probably over.
Zhou Xiong's face turned ashen as he handed over his phone with trembling hands.
"Ding, ding, ding!" In front of all the judges, Elder Su picked up his phone and dialed the latest number in his call history. Soon, a series of pleasant ringtones rang in the hall.
In an instant, everyone's eyes gathered on Young Master Zhou. This voice was clearly coming from him.
"Alright! You bastard, you asked someone to fake it before, and now you're here to bribe the judges. How can someone like you still have the face to stay here?”Bai Xiaoxiao's expression changed drastically as she pointed at Zhou Xiong and started cursing.
It was fine if others were to say that, but when he thought about how he had been tricked by Bai Xiaoxiao, Zhou Xiong wanted to rush up and give her a good beating.
However, he knew that it was impossible.
Not only Bai Xiaoxiao, Miss Feng also stood up and looked at the judges on the stage.""I hope that you can give me a reasonable explanation. Otherwise, I will report this matter to the higher authorities and see how many dirty tricks there are in this competition!”
Elder Su's expression was gloomy, but he did not express his opinion. He was originally standing up for Feng Xi. If it was not for his special status, he would also stand up and refute. It was different for the others, especially the organizers of this competition.
If such a thing was exposed, not to mention the complete end of this competition, in the future, this competition could forget about continuing.
"Everyone, today's matter is all our fault. We will investigate it strictly and will not tolerate such a black sheep!”
"The winner today is Feng Xi!"
Not daring to be negligent for a moment, Miss Feng quickly expressed her attitude. Her gaze fell on Feng Xi, seeking his opinion, but she found that Feng Xi walked straight to Zhou Xiong, who was a dead man.
"Young Master Zhou, the dog that you lost last time hasn't barked yet!”
