In middle age, one's comprehension becomes extraordinary.

After saying this, Mr. Yan turned to look at the other members of the competition team.

Seeing that there were quite a few criticisms, I might as well be direct.

On the big screen, Li Yuan's entire path during the competition was displayed, along with the recording.

The staff also showed everyone Li Yuan's storage box.

"Li Yuan, a contestant from Lingshan City, killed twelve C-level ferocious beasts."

They dared to face the challenges head-on, even when confronting ferocious beasts that lived in groups.

These receipts bear only Li Yuan's mark, and the results are completely authentic.

If the grades were falsified, why can't we see the problem with the other students' grades?

Mr. Yan presented one piece of evidence after another.

Many people don't disbelieve him, but rather choose not to believe him.

It's a very unpleasant feeling to be outshone by someone you used to look down on.

But upon closer examination, I couldn't really find a problem.

Lingshan City has always been ranked in the latter half of the southeastern region.

As a teacher at Lingshan No. 1 Middle School, Li Yuan showed no signs of having any special background or status.

The organizing committee of the Qingwu Tournament has no reason to help Li Yuan cheat.

The results of the Qingwu Tournament are related to policy implementation and the investment that policymakers will make in various cities over the next two years.

If there are problems, those cities that have suffered losses will absolutely not tolerate it.

At the same time, many people heard more about Li Yuan.

They always thought Li Yuan was just an ordinary teacher.

But after hearing from others, I learned that Li Yuan had fought with Jin Fan's junior brother and Li Yuan had won.

It seems reasonable that someone who can defeat a grandmaster's disciple would win first place in the Qingwu Tournament.

Deputy Director Zeng Chang's face was now filled with excitement and joy.

Because of the replacement of Jin Fan, the Lingshan City Education Bureau has been questioned by city leaders more than once.

Lingshan No.1 Middle School falls under the education sector, so if there's a problem, the municipal education bureau should be contacted.

The responsibility for this year's defeat in the Youth Martial Arts Competition has long been prepared by various departments, such as the Water Resources Bureau and the Transportation Bureau, to shift the blame to the Municipal Education Bureau.

But this task of taking the blame has now become an opportunity to make a name for oneself!

Zeng Chang looked at the team results displayed on the side.

Lingshan City ranked tenth, which is six places higher than Chishan City, which won Jin Fan's prize. Chishan City ranked sixteenth!

At this moment, Director Zeng stood up straight, looking at the contestants Ma Qi and Liang Jin with a questioning gaze.

"If you work hard, our Lingshan City's ranking will be more than tenth."

Li Yuan scored over 140 points, while your Water Resources Bureau had so many complaints beforehand, and in the end, the two of you only got this many points.

Faced with Director Zeng's questioning, they were completely speechless.

As the protagonist of the incident, Li Yuan was also happy.

This Qingwu competition really gave Director Zeng face.

He didn't lose money on his investments; on the contrary, he made a huge profit.

When Director Zeng looked at Li Yuan again, his satisfaction was palpable.

He will be a strong contender for the position of director of the municipal education bureau.

In fact, their chances of winning are greater than those of the others.

Merit is always the most important criterion for promotion.

Many young people with status and background are trying their best to make a name for themselves.

Without merit, even with the blessings of one's ancestors and parents, it is difficult to get promoted.

Especially in some key positions, sitting there simply doesn't command respect from the public.

Positions with real power, such as officers at the front lines, are not attainable through connections alone.

This meritorious service should allow the former director to advance further and retire with the rank of deputy director-general.

It is only natural that we should help Zeng Chang.

"Having worked in the education sector for so many years, it seems my judgment was pretty good; I didn't misjudge you."

The performance at the Qingwu Tournament exceeded my expectations.

To be honest, my hands are shaking a little right now.

Zeng Chang chuckled self-deprecatingly.

That smile contained not only self-deprecation, but also excitement and joy.

Li Yuan smiled along with him.

Today's results at the Youth Martial Arts Competition did not disappoint Director Zeng's expectations and were worthy of the resources he invested in me.

At the same time, he finally had a real backer.

Help each other and achieve success together.

The two went through the lows together and overcame the difficulties together.

In truth, these are the real ones among us.

"It's good that I can help Director Zeng. After we go back, the deputy director should be able to become a director."

Hearing Li Yuan's words, Zeng Chang laughed even more happily, and he did not deny it.

After receiving this credit, his chances are indeed very high.

Hesitating for a moment, Zeng Chang suddenly thought of something and looked up at the people in Chishan City not far away.

He turned around and took out the banner that the Ministry of Water Resources had previously accepted on his behalf.

He walked up to Zheng Yu, the director of the Chishan City Bureau.

"The silkworm spins silk until its death, and the candle burns until it turns to ash."

To be honest, our department is somewhat unworthy of this statement.

There was still a selfish reason behind giving Jin Fan away.

If he were more outstanding than Li Yuan, they would definitely hold onto him firmly.

However, after careful consideration, it still seems more appropriate to have Li Yuan represent Lingshan City in the competition.

Everyone has a temper, even those in positions like bureau chief.

At this moment, Director Zeng vented all the grievances he had received earlier, making sarcastic and teasing remarks.

He was the one who felt bad before, but now it's the people of Chishan City who feel frustrated.

Jin Fan, standing in the crowd, looked extremely grim.

Director Zeng's words just now weren't just a joke at Zheng Yu; they were directed at him.

What made him even more uncomfortable were the other people in Chishan City.

When people looked at him one by one, the initial respect they once had was long gone.

Before the Qingwu Tournament, Chishan City did its best to meet all his demands.

Jin Fan only needs to give a glance, and others will think and act accordingly.

But now, the people around him in Chishan City are no longer giving him a friendly look.

To be fair, Jin Fan's grades weren't too bad.

His ranking remains first in Chishan City.

However, this result was far below the expectations of various institutions in Chishan City.

By praising Jin Fan like this, he was given a lot of cultivation resources even when there were no competitions.

When their final results weren't good enough, they were ridiculed and mocked along with the others.

While Director Zheng Yu and his team could bear the frustration and discomfort, the others below could not.

They're definitely going to give Jin Fan a hard time.

No one responded from Chishan City, but Director Zeng seemed to have said enough.

After mentioning the banner, he brought up Li Yuan's matter again.

"By the way, Li Yuan is going to Chishan City for tourism, so you still have to get free admission."

You were able to get Jin Fan to participate in the competition on your behalf, which is really thanks to him.

It was because Li Yuan secured his qualification for the competition that you had the opportunity to invite Jin Fan.

Remember this well, don't try to rip us off on the tickets.

After saying this, Director Zeng turned and left without even looking at the expressions of the people in Chishan City.

The people of Chishan City looked grim, but they couldn't find the words to say.

What Director Zeng just said was simply returning what they had said before.

If you're criticizing Director Zeng now, why didn't you criticize yourself before?

Does this mean you can insult others, but others can't insult you?

10:30 a.m.

The results of the Southeast Region Youth Martial Arts Competition have been fully released to the public.

This is an official announcement, and the rankings are all listed.

Lingshan No.1 Middle School was once again engulfed in noise...
