In this national contest, 182 contestants made it into the grand final and they were the top 3 winners from all provincial and regional contests (including Macao), and the winners from the Internet-based contest. The intense competition consists of four parts: prepared speech, impromptu speech, the Q&A session, and knowledge quizzes. Deng, with her fluent English, elegant stage presence, agile mind and excellent critical thinking skills, won the third prize in the grand final round. Deng has always been passionate about English public speaking and has devoted a lot of time to practice. Although she majors in Chinese medicine, she can express her thoughts and opinions in English fluently, which demonstrates the great potential of the students at Macau University of Science and Technology. Her good performance also bears testimony to the achievements of the general education program of MUST. Her tutor, Dr. Lei Kai Cheong, also won the 3rd prize in the Best Tutor Award.

The contest has already been held for over 10 years. It has attracted contestants from the whole nation and brought a huge positive impact to society. The organizing committee of the contest always adheres to a wide range of participation from all regions, a rigorous competition system, professional supervision, and fair evaluation and judgment. It aims to create the most authoritative and professional English public speaking contest for university students.
