The "Star of Glory" grand finale arrived as scheduled. Broadcast live across all major platforms, the show would use an evaluation method combining talent and virtue to select the final nine all-around contestants, who would then form the "SSS Group."
The three talent mentors—Sheryl Drake, Mimi Fisher, and Master—along with the two virtue mentors, Adrian Quincy and Ethan Kingsley, sat at the judges' table. As a special guest, Claire Sinclair was seated in an added chair beside Adrian Quincy.
The live broadcast had just begun, and the view count had already surpassed one billion. The online comments exploded.
