Apollo is playing the pipa, which is a traditional Chinese instrument, and the judges are amazed at his ability to play the instrument. They think that he is worthy to be the "Prince of Musical Instruments" as he has composed a song and played it so well. They are also amazed that he has not heard of the gossip circulating about him on the internet. They decide to return to the stage and announce the results of the competition, but they are interrupted by the announcement of the four contestants who have qualified for the top four spots. The judges are disappointed that the contestants who did not have their names called out will not be able to compete in the semifinals. The judging panel decides to use the method of random drawing to determine the top two contestants in each group.
