On the day of the release date, the martial arts performance was crowded with people and were looking forward to it. Although everyone already knew the ranking, it was only when the final official announcement was made.

In the eyes of everyone, Taoist Master Qinghan walked into the Wuping Observatory. He cleared his throat and looked around the audience of the disciples in the field, saying loudly: "Dear disciples, thank you for your hard work this month. Through the competition, everyone inspired the fighting spirit, found the gap, and set goals. This selection is not only a competition, but also a grand event for learning and communication. The Presbyterian Church also saw the strength of the younger generation in Qingcheng, and there are many successors, which is very pleased.

According to the rules, it is now announced that the list of ten disciples shortlisted for the Beidou Seven Star Formation is that the first place is Qin Yongjie. The second place is Fang Honglei. The third place is Zhao Yu. The fourth place is Qiao Gang..., the tenth place is Qi Dahong. The above ten disciples will be promoted to Xuantian Cave Palace for one year of cultivation. Practice the supreme classic "Su Shu" in Qingcheng..."

After the list was announced, there was an uproar in the audience and many disciples were talking.

Bai Fu, who ranked third in the competition, and He Xiao, who ranked tenth in the competition, actually failed the exam, which was incredible.

Before the list was announced, Bai Fu was in charge. He didn't care at first, and he was fighting with his brothers. After all, he won't have to worry. But after the fifth place, he didn't even think about himself, and he couldn't help but feel nervous. After finishing reading the list, he didn't have himself, and Bai Fu Wuming became angry.

"Let's go, let's ask Master Qinghan, what's going on?" Bai Fu was extremely angry.

He Xiao looked complicated and happy and sad, and said, "Forget it, it's all announced. What's the use of asking? The elders must have considered it."

"How can this kind of thing be forgotten!" Bai Fu didn't care about He Xiao's tone, and pushed the crowd away and walked to the front of the stage. Bai Fu first gave a deep salute to Master Qinghan and said, "Uncle Master, according to the rules, this selection is based on martial arts as the only indicator. Junior Brother He Xiao and I were third and tenth respectively. Why did we fail?"

"Well..." Master Qinghan looked at Bai Fu with sympathy and said, "When the Elders decided on the final candidate, they also considered factors such as Taoist cultivation and ethics on weekdays."

"Then why don't the standards be announced before the game, and why don't other factors be evaluated publicly?" Bai Fu refused to give in.

"Bastard! Do you dare to question the Presbyterian Church?" Taoist Master Qingshi, who was sitting beside him, was angry when he heard this. Seeing the situation progressing, many disciples who had already dispersed gathered again.

Bai Fu said with neither humility nor arrogantly: "I don't dare to do so by Master Qingshi. But this selection is about openness and fairness, and all selection conditions should be transparent. The results of the disciple and Junior Brother He Xiao are third and tenth respectively. Why did they fail? I want to ask clearly!"

Taoist Priest Qingshi laughed instead of anger and said, "Okay, okay, I wanted to leave some face for you. But since that's the case, I will tell you!"

Master Qinghan saw the two arguing, and hurriedly tried to smooth things over: "Senior brother, wait, let's settle this matter after the leader comes back."

Taoist Master Qingshi snorted coldly and said, "When the head of the sect comes back, these bastards will not make a fuss! Since they want to be fair and open, then it will be fair and open. Our Presbyterians will judge fairness, so what are you worried about?" After saying that, his face darkened, he walked to the stage and said to the disciples below the stage: "This selection is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for the disciples in Qingcheng, and an opportunity to change their destiny. Do you think the selection should be fair and fair?

"Should!" The disciples from the field said in unison.

"If someone does not rely on real skills but uses evil ways to defraud the promotion, do you think you should be punished severely?" Taoist Master Qingshi roared indignation.

"We must punish you severely!" The disciple raised his fists and hissed.

Bai Fu's heart tightened and he secretly looked at He Xiao. He Xiao's face was as calm as usual. Bai Fu let go.

"Okay! Bai Fu and He Xiao were playing fake matches in the competition and cheated them for promotion. Do you think you should be deprived of the selection qualification?"

As soon as he finished speaking, the scene was in an uproar.

Bai Fu couldn't hold back his face and asked loudly: "Master Qingshi, how can you swear by someone?"

Taoist Priest Qingshi looked at him contemptuously and said, "Bloody swearing? Okay, then I'll let everyone see the evidence!" After that, he took out a letter from his arms, unfolded it on the spot, and said loudly: "This is the report of the counterfeit match described by He Xiao! He Xiao, come on stage and tell everyone, have you played counterfeit matches?"

He Xiao went on stage like a puppet, knelt down and sobbed in a low voice: "I'm sorry, all my classmates, I'm crazy. In order to advance, I specially found Brother Fu and asked him to win and guaranteed to advance to the top ten!"

Bai Furu was struck by lightning, and there was a thunderous sound above his head, surrounded by various faces and sounds. "So shameless, in order to advance to the counterfeit game!", "I'm lucky that the leader valued him so much, so it turned out to be such a guy!", "I don't know how many benefits he has taken He Xiao? But, He Xiao's family is so poor, and he still has the heart to take his benefits."

Bai Fu didn't know how he finally walked into the martial arts arena, so ashamed that he wanted to find a crack in the ground.

...

After calming down, Bai Fu couldn't wait to find He Xiao and said, "Heaven and Earth know this, how did Master Qingshi know this?"

He Xiao knew that he was sorry for Bai Fu, so he cried and said, "Master Qingshi has 100 acres of paddy fields at the foot of the mountain. I help him farm and subsidize his family income on weekdays, so he had some friendship. That day he called me into the inner house and asked me if I wanted to be shortlisted for the top ten. Of course I thought about it, but I also knew that my martial arts skills were not good. Not to mention the top ten, I might not be able to enter the top ten. Master Qingshi said that he could help me. The condition was that he would farm his paddy fields for ten years in the future. I could accept this condition, so I agreed happily.

After the group stage started, I made great progress, and even defeated several senior brothers who were more skilled in martial arts than me, and successfully advanced. My talent, Master Fang Xin, made arrangements for me behind my back.

Until the end of the showdown with you, Master Qingshi said that you are the disciple of the head and he can't command you. He also knew that we had always been in a good relationship, so he asked me to find you. This happened later.

Two days ago, Master Qingshi found me and said that the two matches were discovered by Master Qingzhu. If you punish them strictly according to the rules of the sect, your and my grades will not only be invalidated, but will also be expelled from the sect.

I proposed the counterfeit match, and I am willing to accept the punishment of the rules, but I ask my teacher to forgive you and I will bear it alone.

Master Qingshi thought for a long time and asked me to go to Taoist Qingzhu to confess by myself. He helped me mediate and strive to deal with me leniently, and not cancel your achievements.

When things got to this point, I had no other choice, so I agreed and wrote a confession.

Brother Fu, if I knew, he would deprive you of your grades, I would never agree! You have to believe me!" He Xiao's knees softened, he held Bai Fu's hand, knelt down for Bai Fu, begging for forgiveness.

Bai Fu angrily scolded He Xiao for his stupidity and cowardice, and hated Master Qingshi's despicableness even more: "Why are you so stupid! Once you confess in black and white, it will be as proof as a mountain. Master Qingshi has always been hypocritical, how can you believe his words! You are really angry with you!

However, as you said, Master Bluestone is intrigueing you first, and this is not all our fault! From this, it is probably inferred that there are other inside stories in this selection of the Seven-Star Sword Formation, and the talents instructed behind the scenes are even more abominable! We sued the Elders and asked the Elders to give everyone justice. Even if the selection results are still invalid, they cannot be bullied and they will still be spit on their own!"

At this point, Bai Fu stared at He Xiao's eyes and asked seriously: "If I go to the Presbyterian Church to complain, would you be willing to testify?"

He Xiao was stunned, thought for a moment, and said, "Brother Fu, I am willing to testify."

"Good brother! Master Qingshi is so despicable! I'll go to him now to argue!"

As soon as he decided to make up his mind, Bai Fu's blood surged. He pushed He Xiao's obstacle away and headed straight for Songhetang!
