Kapitel 523: Chapter 532: Respect the Game, Respect the Opponent_1

```

If the first two rounds of the competition were about free expression, then the third round was akin to a themed essay.

The theme was "spring."

Spring...

What did it bring to mind?

Upon hearing this topic, the 18 contestants couldn't help but frown in deep thought.

Gao Yufei's gaze slowly swept across the room. Her delicate brows furrowed slightly, as if pondering something.

Three minutes passed.

None had flipped open the sketchbook in front of them, clearly still conceptualizing their "spring" series jewelry and how to design it most brilliantly.

Gao Yufei was not surprised at all.

The topic of "spring" was very broad, spacious, and even hollow.

A single-word theme was the most grinding.

It was quite normal to spend half an hour in deep thought before starting to sketch the design.

For those less talented, they might not manage to finalize a drawing within the two hours allocated for the third round.

The only outcome they faced—

elimination.
