Chapter 285 - 285 284 Sweeping the Top Three

285: Chapter 284: Sweeping the Top Three 285: Chapter 284: Sweeping the Top Three [Upright And Incorrupt]: Facing the powerful, many people would compromise, which is the sorrow under the reality of a society driven by human emotions.

Maintaining the bottom line, being upright and incorrupt, can break these entrenched societal shackles and establish new norms.

Special Effect: When facing leaders of all levels, confidence +30.

If you are resented for standing firm on major right and wrong issues, all retaliatory actions against the host will be paid for by the system!

As the system notification echoed in his mind, Yue Feng looked closely, “Damn, I’ve unlocked a new character trait!”

This thing is awesome!

As long as I’m in the right, no matter how big the official is who retaliates against me, the system will handle it, just like a technologically enhanced invincibility amulet!

“Yue is right!

In the face of such malicious incidents, the need is for strong measures, not cover-ups!

The evidence is clear, and the nature is vile!

I will report the truth at the award ceremony and hand over the relevant evidence to the National Fishing Association!” Old Zhao continued from where Yue Feng left off.

With that said, neither Liu Bei’s child-throwing antics nor playing the good cop will work anymore.

President Cold gave Yue Feng a look, shook his head, and walked out of the office.

With the main pleader gone, what was left of Lv San and Meng Chuan became even more isolated and weak.

Soon after, Lv San and his apprentice also left the office.

Old Zhao was stubborn and rigid; to solve this problem, he would inevitably have to swallow his pride and pull some higher strings.

With only Lu Yong, Yue Feng, and Old Zhao left in the room, the atmosphere eased considerably.

“Don’t just stand there, must be thirsty, have some tea!

You handled today’s issue with firm resolve!” Lu Yong invited Yue Feng to sit as he spoke.

“Despite the disrupted nest affecting your performance, you still scored a point in the second round!

Yue, your Stabbing Toad technique is quite something!” Old Zhao also pulled out cigarettes, and they started puffing away.

Yue Feng scratched his head: “It was a desperate solution, but luckily it was a large edge spot.

The corner spot nearby still had fish.

If it had been a regular fishing spot, the second round would have probably been mysterious!”

Old Zhao looked at the score sheet: “Indeed a bit mysterious, there’s another score like yours, one point in both rounds, but you caught more fish in total than your competitor, so you’re ranked as the champion!”

“When are the results and the award ceremony?

Don’t go anywhere after it, Mr.

Zhao and President Lu, I’ll treat you at noon, and we’ll celebrate!” Yue Feng, upon learning he had taken first place, cunningly suggested.

Old Zhao shook his head, about to refuse, when Lu Yong pulled him aside: “Old Zhao, let me tell you, Yue has some really incredible Medicinal Wine!

Liu Fengnian, Zhang Fenglin, and the others have tried it, and the effect is bang on, instant results!

If you don’t come this afternoon, don’t blame me, Lu, for not giving you a heads up!”

Although Old Zhao held the position of head referee, at the core, he was still a fisherman and far more obsessed than most.

Hearing Lu Yong say this, he immediately became interested.

“Yue, is what Lu Yong said true?”

Yue Feng nodded, “It’s true, but the effect isn’t that exaggerated; it just makes the fish’s mouth a bit more tender!”

Old Zhao was an old fishing hand and knew the ins and outs of the fishing circle well.

Being able to make the mouth of an old and cunning fish a bit tender might not seem like much, but those who know fishing understand that these experienced old fishes are the hardest to deal with.

If the effect is real, that means the Medicinal Wine is extremely effective, sufficient even for the old and cunning fishes, not to mention the normally biting fishes.

In practical use, it’s definitely much stronger than what Yue Feng humbly implied.

“Then I’m definitely going to that lunch!

And I won’t take your Medicinal Wine for free; just tell me how much it normally costs, and I’ll buy it for the regular price!” The resolutely impartial Old Zhao, ultimately couldn’t escape the True Fragrance Law, disgracefully compromised in front of the special Musk Wine.

“Hahaha, even you have your days, Old Zhao!

You guys keep drinking tea; I’m going to check how things are outside, and we’ll have a good drink at noon!”

Lu Yong grinned, standing up and preparing to go for a stroll; there was still an award ceremony to be conducted, and as the de facto organizational leader, he couldn’t let his guard down yet.

Seeing Lu Yong head out, Yue Feng, having resolved the problem, also stood up.

“I’ll head out first, Brother Liu and the others are still waiting outside.

Don’t forget lunch, I’ll call you later, Brother Lu!”

Leaving these words behind, Yue Feng left the office.

True enough, when he exited the office, Liu Fengnian and Zhang Fenglin were not far outside in the shade, smoking.

Seeing Yue Feng come out, the two men stubbed out their cigarettes and strode over.

“What happened during the competition, Yue?

I heard from the angler friends that someone tripped you up?

How did you handle it?” Liu Fengnian asked with concern.

Yue Feng scratched his head, “Yeah, someone threw small medicine balls beside my spot!

After I switched to ‘Stabbing toad,’ they tried again, but a drone caught them!

Lv San’s apprentice, Meng Chuan!

I’ve already handed the evidence over to Referee Teacher Zhao!

It will be reported according to the regulations, and handled strictly then!”

“Lv San’s apprentice?

That old man has quite some influence, probably tough to take down!

But as long as it’s dealt with, that’s good.

By the way, how did your second round of fishing go?

Are you confident about your final score?” Zhang Fenglin also asked.

Yue Feng nodded, “I got the scores in advance from Teacher Zhao, and I also scored one point in the second round.

Unless something unexpected happens, I should be the champion of this competition!”

“Holy shit!

Really?

I also scored two one-points!!” Zhang Fenglin was slightly skeptical upon hearing Yue Feng claim the championship, as his own one point score in the second round with the target fish was already a sure thing, confirmed by the weigh-in staff.

“Heh heh!

According to the competition rules, in case of equal scores, priority is given by the number of fish in the tail of the target fish!

The fish situation was slightly better in my first round, so I ended up with more tails than Brother Zhang!

How many points for Brother Liu?” Yue Feng scratched his head, a bit embarrassed, realizing that the recently mentioned person with fewer tails who ranked second was also his acquaintance, Zhang Fenglin.

“I have a total of three points, should be third place!” Liu Fengnian said.

“Damn!

Nice, the three of us took the top three spots!” Yue Feng was even more delighted now.

In such a level of competition, actually, the rewards for the top ten are all decent, but the rewards for the top three are the most generous.

Now, with the three brothers successfully clinching the top three spots, the lion’s share of the cash rewards was secured, showcasing the formidable power of Musk Wine.

Just as the three were murmuring among themselves, the awarding stage beside the race began buzzing.

A young staff member came over with a freshly printed ranking list and casually posted it on the temporary notice board.

The results are out!

All anglers crowded around.

“Let’s go, the results are out, and the awards will probably be handed out soon, let’s head over there too!” Liu Fengnian said.

“Let’s go!” The three walked towards the awarding stage with big steps.

Upon arriving at the awarding stage, even though they were mentally prepared, they still checked the results list.

Yue Feng even took out his phone and clicked two pictures.

Later, after the award ceremony was complete, he would take a photo of the certificate and prize money together, and post a celebratory message as at least some sort of explanation to the viewers who had watched the livestream all morning.
