Amid cheerful music, the grand opening of the "Chinese Bridge" celebration highlighted the joy and friendships that contestants from around the world formed during their time in China. The event also reflected on the cultural activities participants engaged in during their study trips in Beijing and Tianjin, showcasing their experiences of competition and personal growth.

The finals consisted of three rounds: the "Magical Supermarket Challenge," the "Transformative Light and Shadow Challenge," and "Talking with Sister Moon."

The "Talking with Sister Moon" segment allowed contestants to share insights from five special courses they had experienced in Chinese schools: sports, music, handicrafts, science, and recitation.
