Intelligence updates daily; I achieve sainthood in the martial arts of the public service.

Tu Yuan tucked the two Federation Heart scratch cards into his pocket, feeling delighted.

Buying four Azure Dragon No. 6 potions should increase my cultivation progress by at least ten points, right?

In this way, the time it takes for him to break through to become a first-class martial artist will be greatly reduced!

According to Tu Yuan's estimate, he should be able to apply for a formal internship within half a month.

Once he acquires the strength to become a martial arts performer, his status within the organization will also change.

At least regular police officers are much more polite to trainee officers who have the skills of a martial arts performer.

Because many regular police officers are also skilled martial artists.

In martial arts training, when resources are insufficient, one can only rely on time to hone one's skills.

It takes most formal police officers five to eight years to reach the level of a first-time martial arts performer and a second-time martial arts performer.

Even He Chengjun, who is 33 years old, is currently stuck at this bottleneck and has not been able to break through it.

Of course, this is related to the fact that he was already twenty-five years old when he entered the police station.

If He Chengjun had been able to enter the police station at Tu Yuan's age, he would surely have the strength of a second-level martial arts student by now.

If He Chengjun had the skill to become a martial arts performer, his position in the institute wouldn't be so awkward.

Tu Yuan is twenty years old this year, and his twenty-first birthday will be in a month.

Normally, university graduates are around twenty-two years old.

The reason why Tu Yuan was able to graduate from Dongzhou University at this age is because he had excellent grades in elementary school and skipped a grade once.

Although Tu Yuan has awakened his memories of his past life, he is still a young man at heart.

The thought that he could become a martial arts master at the age of twenty still made Tu Yuan feel a little proud.

However, at this moment, Tu Yuan suddenly thought of Shen Xin, who was about to take over as deputy director of Zhenghe Police Station from Yang Yunwei, and his smugness vanished in an instant.

Shen Xin was only three years older than him, yet he was already a martial artist and had served as the deputy director of the police station.

And then there's Ruan Xueqing, who's probably about to become an advanced mentalist as well.

Ruan Xueqing was only eight months older than Tu Yuan.

"The gap between me and these people is still too big!"

"They were worlds apart from the starting line!"

"If it weren't for the Heavenly Coins, even if I awakened my past life memories, the possibility of me catching up with them would be extremely small."

Tu Yuan wasn't being self-deprecating; it was simply the reality.

It is inherently difficult to achieve fairness between people.

Because the Shengyun City Citizens' Lottery Center starts work at nine o'clock in the morning.

Therefore, after Tu Yuan scratched off the lottery ticket that had won 20,000 yuan, he did not immediately claim the prize.

He planned to take a day off at 4 p.m. and then go to the lottery center to claim his prize before it closed at 5 p.m.

Director Zhang Tao did not come to the police station this morning.

The situation at the institute remained calm and peaceful.

However, in the afternoon, a piece of news suddenly spread throughout the institute.

Director Zhang Tao went to the Martial Arts Association this morning and passed the second-level martial arts expert strength assessment.

He is already a certified second-tier martial artist by the Martial Arts Association!

This news immediately caused a huge uproar at the Zhenghe Police Station.

Zhang Tao returned to the office at 1:30 p.m.

At 2 PM, Zhang Tao convened a meeting with Sun Guangrong, Zheng Hai, instructor Xu Zhanqing, the captains and deputy captains of the security team, patrol team, investigation team, reserve team, and other key office heads.

The meeting had two main topics.

One announcement was the appointment of Shen Xin as the new deputy director, who will take office next week.

Another issue to discuss is the division of labor among the deputy directors.

Normally, after Shen Xin took office, he should have taken over the work that Yang Yunwei was in charge of.

But Zhang Tao now wants to re-discuss the division of labor among the deputy directors.

This left some people puzzled, but those who knew the inside story understood why.

They all turned their gaze to Sun Guangrong, whose face looked rather pale.

Some people gloated, some frowned, and some watched with amusement.

Although Zhenghe Police Station is a grassroots unit, it's a small place with many scoundrels.

Where there are people, there are interests; where there are interests, there are conflicts.

The division of responsibilities among the deputy directors involves the interests of everyone involved.

The meeting lasted for nearly an hour and a half.

The sounds of the argument in the conference room could even be heard in Tu Yuan's large office on the first floor.

However, I couldn't hear what they were arguing about.

The meeting ended around 3:30 p.m.

Sun Guangrong walked out of the conference room with an extremely grim expression.

He never expected that Zhang Tao would actually break through and become a second-tier martial artist.

If he had known this situation, he would never have thought of involving Zhang Tao in Tian Mei and her son's case yesterday.

Yin Haisheng had already told him that he would be transferred to the security section of Xingsheng District Branch.

Although it was a lateral transfer, there wasn't much to be gained in the security department.

However, the security department is responsible for security work when high-ranking leaders travel or inspect.

There are often opportunities to meet higher-level leaders.

The former head of the security department gained the appreciation of a leader in the city leadership team while working there.

He was promoted by that leader.

In addition, he also took down his opponent, Yang Yunwei.

That's why Sun Guangrong's attitude towards Zhang Tao has changed in the past few days.

Sun Guangrong clenched his fists, suppressing his anger, and went downstairs to leave Zhenghe Police Station.

After the meeting, Ma Xiaolian wandered around the main office and occasionally ran outside.

He returned to his desk after a while.

He had a look on his face that said he was thoroughly enjoying himself.

"Director Zhang is really ruthless! The security team, the investigation team, and the command center are no longer under Director Sun's jurisdiction."

"Now he mainly handles routine police work; he's basically become a menial assistant!"

"I heard that Director Sun protested seriously in the meeting room, but Director Zhang said that if he had any objections, he could report them to his superiors."

"Director Sun was so angry that he couldn't speak, and no one in the meeting room dared to speak up for him."

"Director Zhang is now a second-level martial artist, so even the branch office leaders will probably have to give him face."

"Director Sun can only swallow his anger and suffer in silence."

"Director Zheng is now in charge of the General Command Center, the Security Team, and several other offices."

"The patrol team, the investigation team, and the finance office will be under the jurisdiction of the soon-to-be-appointed Director Shen."

"Director Zhang is still in charge, overseeing the overall situation of the institute. In fact, he can directly bypass the leaders in charge to intervene in any matter in the institute if he wants to."

"It is estimated that there will be further changes. For example, Captain He of our security team, Captain Liu of the investigation team, and Director Jiang of the comprehensive command room are all people from Director Sun's office."

"Now, I'm afraid quite a few people are eyeing their location!"

"The situation in the institute will probably not be peaceful in the future."

After listening to Ma Xiaolian's words, Tu Yuan said softly:

"It must be that Director Sun released the four guys who beat Tian Mei and her son yesterday afternoon, which made Director Zhang very angry."

"Who can argue with that? I bet even Director Sun didn't expect Director Zhang to advance to the second-tier martial artist level!"

"Sigh, ever since Deputy Director Yang was investigated, Director Sun's prestige in our station has been much higher than before, but after only a few days? Director Zhang slapped him down!"

"Times have truly changed!"

Ma Xiaolian shook his head and sighed, feeling fortunate that Sun Guangrong had removed his name from the duty office list yesterday when he was in power.

Otherwise, by today, Sun Guangrong's words would probably not have been so effective.

Tu Yuan knew about Zhang Tao's breakthrough earlier than everyone else, and he guessed that Zhang Tao would definitely not be indifferent to what happened yesterday.

But he didn't expect Director Zhang's counterattack to be so violent.

Sun Guangrong's power at the Zhenghe Police Station was completely stripped away, making him even less powerful than the previous Deputy Director Zheng, and he was practically reduced to a nominal position with the title of Deputy Director.

If it were before, Zhang Tao would never have been able to do this so easily.

But now that he has the strength of a second-tier martial artist, almost no one dares to stand against Zhang Tao at the meeting.

This perfectly illustrates the reality of linking the strength and power of the federal government.
