Su Yuan wouldn't believe a single word the System said about Taihua Tianji being a Devil Dao Magnate.

He was just someone with a bit of bad luck, that's all.

But putting aside the slander about him being a Devil Dao Magnate, the core of this Task was quite normal.

Gaining the attention of a powerful figure and then being nurtured by them—a very righteous development.

Moreover, the objective of gaining attention perfectly aligned with his planned strategy for the Martial Arts Competition.

Devilish Art: Finger Artifact. Su Yuan was determined to obtain this Devilish Art from the Five Fingers series!

Just as his fighting spirit soared, another figure suddenly emerged from the Flying Boat.

It was a little loli with white hair, golden eyes, and a delicate, carved appearance.

As she walked out gracefully in her dress, she immediately became the center of attention.

White-haired lovers really exist everywhere.

"Su Yuan, look! It's the little girl we saw in the cafeteria last time. She should be the daughter of the Taihua Tianji True Person," Chen Nuoyi, standing in front of Su Yuan, turned her head and said in surprise.

"Mm, I see it," Su Yuan replied perfunctorily, his expression unchanged, rolling his eyes internally.

For some reason, he wasn't surprised at all that the white-haired loli was Taihua Tianji's daughter.

The father is a Devil Dao Magnate, and the daughter is a Righteous Path powerhouse. System, you really understand family drama.

After Taihua Yu Xi, the white-haired loli, emerged from the Flying Boat, her golden eyes immediately locked onto Su Yuan.

In her gaze, the Devilish Qi emanating from Su Yuan seemed to intensify, and a hint of satisfaction appeared on the little loli's pretty face.

"Dad, you mentioned before that Taihua High School is holding a Martial Arts Competition, right?" the little loli turned to look at Taihua Tianji.

Before he could answer, Zhang Youde, the principal of Taihua High School, said with a chuckle, "We've selected some promising talents from the senior year. It's also an opportunity for the Taihua True Person to act as a judge and offer guidance to our unworthy students."

The white-haired loli let out an "Oh" and impolitely stated, "A small place like Taihua High School doesn't have anyone worthy of my dad's attention. Having him act as a judge is a waste of his time."

Zhang Youde: "..."

Why speak such blunt truths.

Taihua Tianji shook his head and said, "Yu Xi, don't be rude."

The white-haired loli, however, retorted, "I'm just telling the truth. How about this, Dad, you go visit somewhere else, and I'll be the judge for this Martial Arts Competition."

"You... be the judge?"

Taihua Tianji was slightly taken aback.

He frowned, recalling an incident from a few days prior.

It was the second day after he had arrived in Taihua City, and his daughter had gone to Taihua High School alone in disguise.

It wasn't a big deal initially, but after his daughter returned, he noticed that the usually aloof and reserved girl was occasionally smiling.

It was as if... she was experiencing the flush of young love!

But how could that be? What would a ten-something-year-old girl understand about such things?

Thus, after a moment of slight suspicion, he dismissed the thought.

Now, with his daughter returning to Taihua High School, she had developed such great enthusiasm for it, even volunteering to be the judge for the Martial Arts Competition.

What was it that made his daughter so invested?

Taihua Tianji thought of the participant list for the Martial Arts Competition that the Taihua High School administration had sent over yesterday, which his daughter seemed to have glanced at.

"Could it be related to someone on the participant list?"

A flash of insight crossed Taihua Tianji's mind, and he felt he was close to the truth.

"Alright, Yu Xi, you can be the judge for this Martial Arts Competition."

Taihua Tianji nodded decisively.

Principal Zhang Youde was stunned by this.

"Taihua True Person, having a child be the judge, isn't that a bit..."

Zhang Youde hesitated, wondering if this Taihua Sword Immortal was perhaps a doting father.

Taihua Tianji waved his hand and said with a smile, "It's fine. Since my daughter wants to experience being a judge, let her be. We can just watch from the side."

Zhang Youde thought about it and agreed.

As long as he could let the Taihua True Person see the grace of his school's students, the title of judge didn't matter.

Taihua Tianji gave his daughter a meaningful look.

After his daughter became a judge, she might show favoritism towards someone on the Martial Arts Competition list. That person was likely the reason for her change in temperament.

Su Yuan was already drenched in sweat.

He felt that this bratty girl being a judge was definitely not well-intentioned.

This was probably going to screw him over!

But the Martial Arts Competition was already underway and couldn't be stopped. Su Yuan could only hope that Taihua Yu Xi wouldn't cause trouble and that he could steadily win this competition.

Li Ziquan, the person in charge of this Martial Arts Competition, quickly led Taihua Tianji and the school leaders to their seats, then cleared the area for the contestants to spar.

Taihua Yu Xi, as the competition judge, took her rightful place on the judges' bench.

The eight contestants, including Su Yuan, stepped forward to the center of the field.

The process of this Martial Arts Competition was simple: draw lots to determine opponents, then spar. From the top eight to the top four, then to the top two, and finally, the champion would be decided.

After a brief introduction of the rules, Li Ziquan took out a lottery box and said to the contestants:

"Come up one by one to draw your numbers. The two people with the same number will be a group."

The number drawing process went smoothly. Su Yuan drew number 1, and his opponent was a student from Class 6 who was at Qi Cultivation Level 6.

He and the student from Class 6 were the only two at Qi Cultivation Level 6 on the field.

To outsiders, it looked like a match between two weaklings.

Su Yuan was satisfied with this draw. Although he had various methods to win, it was still the most righteous way to level up from weak to strong by defeating monsters.

As number 1, Su Yuan and his opponent were the first pair to enter the arena.

Just as the other contestants retreated, leaving only Su Yuan and his opponent on the field, waiting for the referee's signal to start the fight, a crisp voice rang out.

"I declare that Su Yuan wins this Martial Arts Competition."

Su Yuan: "???"

Wait, I haven't even started fighting yet?

Li Ziquan, the referee: "???"

Wait, I haven't even blown the whistle yet!

The observing students and school leaders: "..."

They all looked in the direction of the voice, which came from Taihua Yu Xi, who was standing on a stool on the judges' bench, barely reaching the height of the seated adults.

Principal Zhang Youde asked helplessly:

"Judge Taihua, the match hasn't even started, how can Su Yuan have won?"

Taihua Yu Xi glanced at him and said calmly:

"Su Yuan is from Class 2, and his opponent is from Class 6. Two is before six, so that's one win."

"Su Yuan has one win, while the other contestants have zero wins. That's two wins."

"Su Yuan has two wins, and the other contestants still have zero wins. That's three wins."

"Three wins in three matches, isn't he the champion yet?"

As soon as she said this, everyone present clearly realized one thing.

This Martial Arts Competition was a total fix!

All eyes turned to Su Yuan in the center of the field, making him shiver.

What made Su Yuan's heart clench even more was the rapidly increasing task progress on his system panel.
