Every city has an annual martial arts cup competition. ● Search . ●

The adult martial arts class competition is actually a selection tournament.

The winner will represent the city in a higher level of the Martial Arts Cup until they become the global champion.

And Xu Jun participated in the martial arts cup competition for young people under thirty.

Such competitions are limited to each city.

The first place is just the first place, at most it's just sparring with young martial artists from friendly neighboring cities, and wouldn't be made into a national competition.

But, for the average resident of a small town.

They are much more enthusiastic about the youth group.

Because everyone knows, the adult group champions definitely can't beat those strong players from big cities, main cities, and capitals.

Not everyone enjoys studying with the prince.

But the youth group's competition, the first place is definitely their own.

So, after entering the top sixteen of the official tournament, it received the treatment of live broadcasts throughout the city and nationwide audience watching on site.

When Xu Jun entered the competition venue on Saturday, he was immediately taken aback by the enthusiastic scene before him.

All official competitions are held at the city's martial arts hall.

Xu Jun came to see me three years ago.

However, at that time he was watching the annual finals. The whole Budokan was packed with people, every seat filled.

He originally thought that today was just the round of 16, with four matches played in the morning and afternoon.

The number of viewers will definitely be there, but it won't be too many.

But I didn't expect…

For a moment, he even doubted himself, wondering if he had gotten the match wrong. Was this not a round of sixteen match, but rather the final for the championship

"Ladies and gentlemen, the sixteenth round of the Nth Purple Cloud City Youth Martial Arts Cup has officially begun..."

"Oh..."

A cheer erupted from the seats below.

The first match pits Mr. Qiang Feng from the Crazy Lion Martial Arts Hall against...

Suddenly, the cheers reached a crescendo in the next moment. The sound, like a tidal wave, seemed to threaten to tear off the roof of the entire building.

Xu Jun was also amazed at what he saw below.

This organizer really doesn't know the rules, does he

Guo Feng is the top seed player in this year's Youth Martial Arts Cup.

Today's his first public appearance, and you guys didn't put him last You put him first instead This tactic...aren't you afraid of messing it up

If the audience leaves if a certain contestant wins, does that count as a failure on the part of the organizers

However, no matter how Xu Jun complained in his heart, the competition still started as normal.

On the stage, a head of red hair, tall and powerful, was none other than the lion king, Wang Feng, who received the most cheers.

And his opponent, whether in terms of aura or appearance, was not in the same league.

Xu Jun just glanced at it and knew that this match didn't even need to be competed, because the result was well-known.

As expected, after only ten moves, Wang Feng won with no suspense.

Xu Jun's mouth twitched slightly, his face taking on a strange expression.

Li Qiankun said softly, "Brother Xu, what's wrong"

Behind the stage, only athletes and staff are allowed. Athletes are permitted to bring one assistant.

And Xu Jun brought in Li Qiankun.

Xu Jun hesitated for a moment, then whispered, "Li Ge, if I report match-fixing, is there a reward"

"Match-fixing" Li Qikun's face changed drastically. "Brother Xu, you can't just throw that word around casually." He lowered his voice and said, "Who are you saying is match-fixing with whom"

Xu Jun let out a chuckle and said, "Just what happened just now."

"That...was impossible." Li Qiankun stated resolutely. "That's Kuang Feng, he couldn't possibly lose."

There was one more thing Li Qiankun didn't say.

If Jianfeng lost, then it would definitely be match-fixing. But now Jianfeng won, so if you report him for match-fixing, I estimate no one would listen to you.

Xu Jun said angrily, "Kuang Feng couldn't possibly lose. What I mean is, Kuang Feng let water go, and it was a massive flood."

Li Qiangkun was dumbfounded and looked at him with questioning eyes.

Xu Jun understood what he meant and explained, "These two fighters, while one could have defeated the other with just one move, chose to go through ten or so exchanges instead. Hmph, if they weren't in cahoots, I wouldn't believe it."

Li Qiandkun finally understood and let out a sigh of relief, smiling wryly: "Brother Xu, you misunderstood."

"What"

Xu Jun seemed a bit unhappy. I saw it with my own eyes, so how can this be a misunderstanding

Li Qiandao said slowly: "There is something I need to explain first."

"You said."

"When it's Xu Ge's turn to take the stage, the opponent will be a martial artist from the day after tomorrow. When you make your move, please hold back a little. At least last for ten or so moves, and then win."

Xu Jun widened his eyes, looking somewhat disbelieving.

Li Qiankun said again, "Look down there, so many people are watching live. You have to think about them at least a little bit, and let them get a glimpse of what's going on."

Xu Jun was speechless for a moment.

Oh, I see.

Li Qiankun coughed lightly and said, "Also, in fact, our several major martial arts academies have an agreement. If we encounter a congenital expert that we cannot resist, then we can concede defeat. However, fight a few more moves to give each other some face, so as not to damage our reputation and affect accepting disciples and various businesses."

Xu Jun raised an eyebrow, seeming a little puzzled.

Li Qiangkun sighed and said, "Brother Xu, we open a martial arts school, after all, we still want to make money. As the saying goes, harmony generates wealth."

He gave Xu Jun a deep look and said, "Even martial arts halls have times of decline. We are not always lucky enough to meet such masters as you. Once we bully someone too harshly, what do you think they will do to our martial arts hall when they gain power"

After a pause, he continued, "So, unless we encounter a real dragon, we won't tear each other apart.

This time, Xu Jun truly had an epiphany.

So this is what true society is like.

He nodded and said, "Okay, I understand. Don't worry, Li Ge."

There were four matches in the morning.

So, during the intermission between each match, the organizers arrange some special performances.

For example, magic tricks by clowns, acrobatics etc.

Of course, the most popular is the performance of female cheerleader costumes.

This time's halftime show was performed by the city's most famous cheerleading squad.

Although Xu Jun had not gone out, just listening to the deafening sounds told him how crazy those people outside were.

Finally, the cheers died down.

Xu Jun listened to the sounds coming from outside.

"Next up is the last match of this morning's session, the fourth match, featuring Liu Fan from the Muay Thai Gym, against Xu Jun from the Thunderbolt Gym. Now, please welcome both athletes to the stage."

Li Qiankun immediately pulled open the door to the rest room.

Xu Jun carried his long sword and strode out with his head held high.

Just as he was about to step out, Li Qiankun suddenly reached out his hand.

Xu Jun smiled faintly, extended his hand to shake his, and said, "Rest assured, I won't lose."

Li Qiankun smiled wryly and said, "I'm not worried about you. If I were worried, it would be the guy across from us. I just want to remind you to control your time."

Xu Jun chuckled wryly. "Understood."

Although the camaraderie between the martial arts students seems to have a hint of match-fixing.

But, considering the circumstances, he might as well give it a try.
