In middle age, one's comprehension becomes extraordinary.

There are ten hours left until the end of the Qingwu Tournament.

This is the last night in the wilderness.

Of the more than 600 participants, only about 400 martial artists remain in the competition.

The wilderness and forests are fraught with danger, and all sorts of dangers can strike unexpectedly.

Many martial artists withdrew early.

The competition on the real-time leaderboard has reached a fever pitch.

The martial artists still in the competition area, though unable to see their rankings, were even more aggressive and determined.

With the game nearing its end, there was no need to conserve any more energy or strength.

Use it as much as possible, and try to get every single point.

Nobody knows for sure; in the end, it might just be a matter of one point that widens the gap in rankings.

Li Yuan's scoring speed remained consistent, consistently earning at least thirty points daily.

Even though some people scored strangely, they still couldn't pull Li Yuan away.

They firmly hold onto fourth place, refusing to be overtaken by them.

Jin Fan, representing Chishan City, was full of confidence and felt that making it into the top five would be a piece of cake.

Little did they know, they had already been pushed down to thirteenth place.

It's completely dark now. The Qingwu Tournament will officially end at 8:30 tomorrow morning.

That night, the open space outside was bustling with activity.

The team leaders from different cities even started arguing.

The leaders of the martial artists whose rankings rose rapidly all stepped forward to clarify the situation and argued with the others.

They said they just had good luck and were fortunate enough to find so many ferocious beasts.

Why should the results achieved by martial artists from their city be questioned?

The argument was very loud, and many reporters even recorded short videos and posted them directly on the platform.

Videos of arguments are the most eye-catching.

Furthermore, the citizens of each city will definitely support the martial artists from their own city.

With differing viewpoints, these short videos will inevitably attract numerous comments.

If the audience starts arguing again, the buzz will really go up.

At the same time, Yan Ge, the chief referee, stepped forward.

He stood in front of everyone and laid out the matter openly.

"I, as the head referee, have emphasized the rules of this year's Youth Martial Arts Tournament to you many times."

Before the competition began, a paper copy of the rules was distributed.

If you know the rules but still break them, then don't blame the event organizers for punishing you.

The tricks you used couldn't escape the eyes of the competition organizers!

The Qingwu Tournament is a very large event, and as the chief referee, it is his responsibility to ensure that the Qingwu Tournament is fair.

These things have gotten quite big.

There's been a lot of discussion about this online now.

We can't just brush this off; we definitely need to give the public an explanation.

Referee Yan Ge's words confirmed that someone had cheated.

Media reporters seized on this, publishing a flood of articles and short videos.

It was late at night, but the topics related to the Southeast Youth Martial Arts Tournament were even more lively than during the day.

On the real-time leaderboard, Jin Fan is still ranked thirteenth.

The relevant leaders of Chishan City are certainly not satisfied with this result.

It took a lot of effort to invite Jin Fan over; what they wanted was for Jin Fan to rank in the top five.

Jin Fan alone managed to pull Chishan City's group ranking up.

However, Jin Fan's current ranking is quite poor.

They didn't even make it into the top ten on the real-time leaderboard.

But what Old Yan said just now put Director Zheng Yu and his team in Chishan City at ease a little.

When the fake results obtained by others are exposed, Jin Fan's ranking will naturally improve.

Thinking of this, the people in Chishan City looked at Director Zeng and his group with even more malice.

That look in his eyes was a mockery of Lingshan City's alleged fraud.

Zeng Chang did not respond, because at this moment he himself had some doubts.

Currently, Li Yuan remains firmly in fourth place.

This ranking is, in theory, something that only a martial artist of Jin Fan's level should achieve.

While he hesitated, people from other bureaus in Lingshan City surrounded Zeng Chang.

"Director Zeng, you didn't assign any tactics to Li Yuan, did you?"

That's against the rules!

Lingshan City can't afford to lose face along with everyone if it doesn't achieve good results.

People from several agencies, including the Water Resources Bureau and the Transportation Bureau, questioned Zeng Chang.

Zeng Chang remained calm and simply asked a question in return.

"The other participating martial artists are from your respective factions."

Will they cooperate with my tactical plan?

"Since they all look down on Li Yuan, do you really think they'll help him get on the list?"

One rhetorical question shut everyone up in Lingshan City.

Yes, who among them would help Li Yuan compete for a higher ranking?

If it were truly a fraud, such a benefit wouldn't have fallen into Li Yuan's lap.

The words I had planned to say were swallowed back.

With only nine hours left until the end of the Qingwu Tournament, all that's left is to wait.

Once everyone has left the competition area and the organizing committee has given the referees their results, everyone will know the details of the situation.

Amidst the online uproar, the final night of the Qingwu Tournament came to an end.

At eight o'clock in the morning, students from Lingshan No.1 Middle School gathered in small groups.

In the teachers' office, many teachers were gathered together, all waiting for the Qingwu Competition to end.

With only half an hour left, the real-time standings are unlikely to change much.

The name "Lingshan City - Li Yuan" still occupies the fourth position.

Even if Jin Fan himself represented Lingshan City in the competition, he might not be able to achieve this result.

Despite being underestimated, Li Yuan consistently ranked highly from the start and persevered until the very end.

Logically speaking, Class 9 and Class 14 should have been even more excited about Li Yuan's achievement.

But this morning, the students in both classes were very quiet.

Rumors about match-fixing at the Qingwu Tournament started circulating last night.

This morning, the questioning of Li Yuan reached its peak.

When the Qingwu Tournament first started, media reporters praised Li Yuan, calling him a "dark horse".

Right now, the "dark horse" is embroiled in a fraud scandal, and the spotlight has returned.

The leaders of Lingshan No.1 Middle School deliberately talked loudly while walking, mentioning things like teacher ethics and personal morality.

They preemptively concluded that Li Yuan had falsified his achievements.

Half an hour passed quickly.

All participants' smart storage boxes instantly locked, preventing any further items from being placed inside.

According to the pre-set program, all the signal transmitters began to send out signals.

The next step was to bring all the contestants out.

With the Qingwu Tournament over, the results and rankings for each city should have already been released.

However, this scandal of forgery has arisen, and it needs to be verified and confirmed.

Deputy Director Zeng Chang looked at the real-time points leaderboard, feeling very anxious.

I came here with no hope, only hoping to finish the Qingwu Tournament safely.

But now, if Li Yuan's score is true, then he has truly made a contribution.

He will completely handle this hot potato.

At this moment, he desperately hoped it was true, that Li Yuan had earned the points through his own merit...

By 8:40, many participants had already returned.

Those who live nearby can easily return by themselves.

Jin Fan also returned; he was not far away.

The first thing I did when I got back was to check the real-time standings...
