Chairman, Someone is Cheating!
Just as James was wondering how to vent his anger, several men and women of varying builds and skin tones approached. James frowned slightly, wondering what these team leaders from different countries wanted.
Before James could speak, the short, stout Sakura Country leader, Abe Takeo, with a bushy beard, urgently said, "Your Excellency, we suspect someone cheated!"
"What?"
James was quite surprised and exclaimed in astonishment, "Someone cheated? Who? Are you sure?"
"Yosh! Your Excellency Chairman, my judgment was correct; this person is definitely cheating!"
"And..."
At this point, the fat Sakura Country man turned his head and glanced at the Human Path who had come with him, saying, "Theirs all share the same opinion as me!"
"We all agree that the contestant from China, that guy named Hua Qiang, definitely cheated!"
"China Hua Qiang, the Chinese player, cheated?"
James glanced at the group of people, his facial muscles twitched slightly, his previously furrowed brows relaxed a little, and a surge of secret joy welled up inside him.
He was initially conflicted because his country's athlete was ranked second, and had been completely outmatched by the top-ranked China athlete.
This time, it's an individual competition with team points. If he loses to someone else and doesn't get the team first place reward, how will he explain it when he gets back?
Just when I was feeling sleepy, someone brought me a pillow.
If this group of people were to cause trouble and eliminate the number one player, wouldn't their Eagle Country's contestant then be ranked number one?
Moreover, they have a chance to win first place in the team standings, so wouldn't all those coveted rewards end up going to their country?
Are you sure? Do you have any evidence?
James's tone sounded calm, but his body was actually trembling slightly—trembling with excitement!
"This... Your Excellency Chairman, although we were not present at the scene, this data is simply too bizarre, unbelievable, and we dare not believe it."
"We cannot accept Hua Qiang's points system; it doesn't exist and it's impossible!"
"Your Excellency Chairman, you may ask the tour leaders present here for their opinions?"
James glanced at the group and was about to speak when the team leaders started shouting one after another.
"Yes, that's what we thought too. After discussion, we all reached a consensus: this number is inaccurate and constitutes fraud!"
"We demand that Hua Qiang's first-place finish be revoked, his competition be terminated, and he be disqualified from participating!"
"We will not tolerate cheating in this league. It is unfair to players from other countries, disrespectful to them, and a provocation to our entire tournament Organizing Committee!"
James smiled, a very happy smile.
Then, with a wave of his hand and a serious expression, he said, "We will take your feedback very seriously and will develop solutions to address this issue. Let's have a meeting over there in a bit..."
Lu Guangyao was unaware that a few shameless individuals were plotting against the China Team he led, nor did he know their wolfish ambitions towards Hua Qiang.
At this moment, Hua Qiang was leisurely walking on a mountain path, checking his personal attributes.
To avoid readers accusing me of padding the word count, I'll omit 1,000 words here.
Wu Qiqi gripped the long whip tightly, and the whip seemed to come alive in her hand, trembling slightly.
Her eyes were fixed on a pair of enormous scorpions 20 meters away from her.
These are two terrifying Ghost-Faced Demon Scorpion, one at the Level 4 Intermediate and the other at the Peak Level 4.
Their massive bodies shimmered with an eerie luster in the sunlight, their hard shells seemingly able to withstand any attack.
If she hadn't broken through to the King Realm and encountered these two scorpions, her first instinct would have been to flee for her life.
But now, she has broken through and has the confidence to fight.
Even so, her heart was still pounding.
After all, the scorpion's fighting power is extremely astonishing. They not only possess great strength and agile speed, but they can also spray venom.
Once the venom comes into contact with the body, it will immediately poison the body, rendering it unable to fight, and then it will be at the mercy of the scorpion.
The two Ghost-Faced Demon Scorpion raised their tails high, and on their tails, there was a mouth-like opening that hissed as it opened and closed, as if it might spray out deadly venom at any moment.
The scorpion's eyes were fixed on Wu Qiqi, its gaze revealing ferocity and greed, and a sinister smile appeared on its face.
They felt they were very lucky today; they had just come out of their nest and encountered prey, and very plump prey at that.
The two creatures seemed to have already envisioned Wu Qiqi becoming their meal.
Wu Qiqi took a deep breath and launched the first attack.
With a flick of her wrist, the long whip flew towards the Level 4 Intermediate Ghost-Faced Demon Scorpion like a nimble snake, slicing through the air with a whooshing sound.
The Ghost-Faced Demon Scorpion reacted extremely quickly. It dodged the attack of the long whip with a flash, and at the same time, it flicked its tail and shot a venom at Wu Qiqi.
Wu Qiqi quickly dodged to the side. The venom grazed her cheek and landed on the ground, instantly emitting a wisp of blue smoke and corroding a small pit in the ground.
Wu Qiqi's heart tightened, and she dared not be careless in the slightest. She swung her long whip again, this time the whip swirling in the air to form a circle, trying to trap the Ghost-Faced Demon Scorpion.
Undeterred, the scorpion charged straight into the circle of whips and clamped the long whip between its hard pincers.
Wu Qiqi pulled hard, but found that the scorpion was extremely strong, and for a moment they were deadlocked.
At this moment, the Ghost-Faced Demon Scorpion, Peak Level 4, also joined the battle.
It charged at Wu Qiqi from the side, opening its blood-red maw, trying to bite her.
Wu Qiqi's expression was solemn, her gaze fixed on the Peak Level 4 demonic scorpion.
She quickly formed a complex hand seal while chanting incantations, as if summoning some mysterious power.
The next moment, she pointed a finger at the demonic scorpion, and instantly, a huge Python Vine suddenly stretched out from the ground.
This Python Vine was as thick as a large bowl, its surface covered with sharp barbs, and it shimmered with an eerie light.
Like a Giant Python awakening, it swept towards the Ghost-Faced Demon Scorpion with lightning speed, carrying a powerful aura.
The scorpion sensed the approaching danger; a wary look appeared on its hideous face, and it raised its two enormous pincers high.
The Python Vine instantly coiled around the scorpion's body. The scorpion struggled desperately, trying to use its pincers to grasp the Python Vine and cut it off.
However, the Python Vine tightened its grip, its barbs digging deep into the scorpion's exoskeleton, causing the scorpion to hiss in pain.
The scorpion began releasing black venomous mist, attempting to corrode the Python Vine.
The Python Vine, however, showed no fear. It emitted a faint green light, seemingly resisting the poisonous fog.
At the same time, the tip of the Python Vine kept lashing at the demonic scorpion, each lash leaving deep marks on the scorpion's body.
Enraged, the scorpion suddenly exerted its strength, breaking free from part of the Python Vine's restraints, and then rushed towards Wu Qiqi, intending to attack the instigator.
Seeing this, the Python Vine quickly extended and wrapped around the scorpion again, resulting in a fierce stalemate between the two...
