Chapter 385

There had already been quite a few groups on stage whose performances left much to be desired.

Some even forgot their lines in the middle of their act, standing there blank and helpless, until the performance had to be awkwardly cut short.

Yet, no matter how poorly anyone did, the lowest possible score was always sixty a sort of encouragement grade.

No one had ever received a zero.

Now, a wave of shock rippled through the audience, the room buzzing with whispers and incredulous murmurs.

"What's going on? Why did they get a zero?"

"Does anyone here speak French? Did they make some fatal mistake up there?"

"That can't be it—even if they slipped up, they still finished the performance. That alone should be worth at least eighty points, right?"

"Wasn't Marvin's group actually really good? Honestly, I thought they did better than Keen's group."

"I speak French-they didn't make any mistakes at all."
