Not long after, the competition was about to begin.

The audience seats were already filled with students.

Not only were there students from the fashion design department, there were also people from other departments who were interested in fashion design.

On the stage stood the contestants.

There were a total of 10 contestants, all from the fashion design department. In front of each contestant was a mannequin and a table. Other than fabric, there were all kinds of tools on the table.

Meng Xiaowan stood at the back of the stage and took out her fabric to place on the table.

Not far away, Lin Li turned to look at her.

Her eyes were filled with disdain.

Meng Xiaowan smiled at her and said, “All the best, Xiao Li!”

Xiao Li immediately felt a surge of anger!

Meng Xiaowan actually dared to do this…

At the same time, the lights on the stage dimmed and the entire venue turned dark.

Suddenly, a beam of light appeared and the host went on stage!

“Good afternoon, teachers and students!”

At the same time, the audience cheered!

“Wow! This year’s fashion design event is going well!”

“That’s right! It’s like watching a model on the runway!”

Among the cheers, there were even loyal fans who raised their signboards and shouted.

Lin Li’s two sidekicks were sitting in the front row, holding up their custom-made fan cards.

The fan signboard was made of a fluorescent screen and there were five big words on it!

“Xiao Li, you’re the best!”

Not only were there written words, there was also shouting!

Almost everyone was shouting.

“Sister Lin Li! You’re the best!”

“Sister Lin Li, you’re the most beautiful! You’re the best designer in the department!”

Xiao Li smiled and bowed to the audience.

Voices like this rose one after another. Not only were there people shouting Lin Li’s name, but there were also other people’s names that were called out. However, other people’s names were being called out very softly.

However, Meng Xiaowan was not one of the names which was called out.

Although, Meng Xiaowan did not care about this at all. At this moment, she was already thinking about how to design her outfit.

Through consolidating her memories, Meng Xiaowan picked up a lot of theoretical knowledge about making outfits.

Fortunately, Meng Xiaowan worked very hard in her previous life. She committed almost all the theoretical knowledge about fashion design in her heart.

The only fatal flaw was that she had no talent.

It was also Meng Xiaowan’s first time making outfits.

To be honest, Meng Xiaowan had never been in this field before.

Meng Xiaowan didn’t even know if she had talent.

After the host finished his narration, the host finally turned his body and stretched out his hand to signal the stage. Immediately after, he shouted vehemently, “The competition begins!”

Following that, the music from backstage started playing!

The big screen at the back of the stage immediately showed the countdown timer and the contestants making their outfits.

One hour!

59: 59!

The audience was excited. They were all looking forward to whether the champion of this competition would be Lin Li who was both outstanding and publicly acknowledged!

At the same time, the 10 contestants lowered their heads and began to move.

The big screen was split into 10 small images, each image corresponding to a contestant.

The audience looked at the screen. Almost everyone took out a pen and started drawing on the blank piece of paper.

When they looked over the contestants one by one, they actually found a contestant without a sketch!

Not only did she not do a sketch, she even started to trim the fabric!

This contestant was Meng Xiaowan!

Everyone below the stage, be it those who knew what was going on or those who did not, started discussing what was going on!

“Wow, contestant number 10, what’s going on?!”

“Have you ever studied fashion design before? Generally speaking, a sketch has to be done first before trimming can be done!”

“Yeah, that’s right. This contestant is probably too impatient. There’s still more than 50 minutes left. Is there a need to be so impatient?!”

“Let me tell you, most designers who are impatient will regret it when they finish making the outfit! If they discover that some of the details don’t match, then all their efforts will be wasted!”

“I see! Although I don’t know much about the industry, I can tell that there’s something wrong with her just by looking at her. Everyone else is working on a sketch, but she’s already starting to outline and trim it!”

At the same time, Meng Xiaowan flung her hand to spread out the fabric on the table. Right after, Meng Xiaowan picked up a piece of chalk and started drawing on the fabric.

The judges frowned upon seeing this.

The judges looked at each other and saw Meng Xiaowan’s screen. Instantly, they shook their heads and wrote something on the paper.

One of the judges, Ms. Li, asked, “Which teacher taught this child? Why did she start trimming the fabric right away?”

Thereafter, Mr. Zhang who was standing at the side agreed, “That’s right, impatience is taboo in fashion design. There’s only one piece of fabric for each contestant on stage. If they start to trim the fabric directly without first creating a sketch, the outfit that is designed this way will most likely be ruined.”

“If it isn’t ruined…”
