Stop pretending, I'm a security guard, a five-star general!

Another week has passed, and still no team has emerged from the secret realm.

Now, the event organizers were completely panicked.

Three weeks is a long time; even the worst teams should have emerged by now. It's impossible that no team has emerged yet.

Therefore, the event organizers promptly sent a signal to the teleportation bracelets worn by each team, indicating that the competition should be paused and that all of them should be teleported out.

Soon, all the participating teams were teleported out, and the event organizers hurriedly asked them what had happened inside the secret realm and why they hadn't come out yet.

The answer they received, however, took the event organizers by surprise.

There wasn't a flag on the highest mountaintop!?

"How is that possible? They clearly came out carrying a flag when they left Teikyo University!"

Han Chenghu looked puzzled.

Meanwhile, the other participating teams only then realized that Teikyo University had already retrieved its flag less than three hours after the start of the competition!

But how the hell is that possible?

Where did these people find the flag?

Ye Fan, the captain of Longxia University, quickly stepped forward and asked:

"Where did those people from Teikyo University find that flag?"

The event organizers replied:

"It's on the highest mountaintop."

Ye Fan looked completely bewildered: "But we didn't find it after we went up there."

"Could it be that people from Imperial University took them?"

"This is impossible."

The staff member shook his head: "Each team's teleportation wristband has a sensor. Once a team writes down more than one flag, it will be detected instantly and eliminated immediately."

"Where did all these flags go?"

Everyone present was completely baffled.

Left with no other choice, Han Chenghu had to call the students from Imperial University over again and ask them in detail what had happened after they entered the secret realm.

However, Qin Yu and his group had already coordinated their conversations beforehand, so no one was able to extract any useful information from them.

Qin Yu, however, couldn't be bothered with all that.

In his view, since all the other teams left the secret realm without finding the flag, it was obvious that they had all been eliminated and that they would be the champions of this tournament.

So, Qin Yu grinned and spoke directly to the staff:

"The awards can be presented now."

The staff member was taken aback: "An award? What kind of award?"

Qin Yu spoke with righteous indignation:

“The other teams left the secret realm without getting the flag, so according to the rules they were all eliminated, and we advanced. So it’s obvious that we are the final champions.”

staff member:? ? ?

What you're saying actually makes some sense!

However, this matter was of great importance, and as an ordinary staff member, he naturally dared not make a decision. So he had to report it up the chain of command and finally leave it to Han Chenghu to decide.

In response, Han Chenghu only said one sentence:

"The match cannot end until the cause of the flag's disappearance is found!"

Upon hearing this, Qin Yu sighed and decided to secretly give them a hint.

So he went up to Han Chenghu, and with a look of sudden realization on his face, he said:

"Oh right, I just remembered that when we left after taking the flag, a snow tiger lord seemed to charge at us."

Han Chenghu nodded: "That snow tiger lord was specially arranged by us to be the final checkpoint on the mountaintop. What's wrong? Is there a problem?"

Qin Yu stroked his chin, pretending to be deep in thought, and said:

"Do you think it's possible that the Snow Tiger Lord ate all those flags?"

Upon hearing this, Han Chenghu scoffed and said:

"How is that possible? It's a carnivore, how could it eat those flags made of plastic?"

"Why not give it a try? What if it works out? After all, there are all sorts of tigers in a big forest. Maybe that snow tiger lord has a taste for this."

"This……"

Han Chenghu thought about it. Although he still felt that this was impossible, he really had no clue and could only try anything as a last resort.

So he immediately ordered his men to enter the secret realm, capture the snow tiger lord, kill it, and dissect it to see if there were any of those flags inside its belly.

Half a day later, the autopsy results came out, showing that although there were no flags in the Snow Tiger Lord's stomach, there were a large number of plastic molecules that make flags.

Clearly, those flags were indeed eaten by this snow tiger lord.

The results of this investigation immediately caused a stir among the audience.

They never imagined that a carnivorous animal could have such a mindset as to devour all these plastic flags!

This is even more outrageous than a person eating shit!

"Hehe, Old Han, can we be awarded the championship now?" Qin Yu asked Han Chenghu with a grin.

Upon hearing this, Han Chenghu merely glanced at him calmly.

Why should we award you the championship?

"The reason why the flag disappeared has now been found out. According to the rules, since our team got the flag and the other teams were eliminated, we are the champions."

"The disappearance of the flag is considered an act of God, so our organizing committee has decided to hold a rematch."

"What!? A rematch!?" Qin Yu was so angry he almost vomited blood.

Han Chenghu said with a half-smile:

"Don't worry, you don't need to retake the competition, you'll advance directly."

"That won't do either," Qin Yu said anxiously. "According to the tournament rules, all the other teams are eliminated. How can you, as the tournament organizers, lead the way in violating the rules?"

"No way, I'm going to report you!"

Han Chenghu chuckled and said, "We are the event organizers. Where are you planning to report us?"

Qin Yu said indignantly, "There is so much injustice in the world. I will use blood to draw thunder and expose your shameless acts to the people of the whole country!"

"But we didn't break any rules. You can check the last article of the event's rulebook if you don't believe me."

Han Chenghu threw a rulebook directly into Qin Yu's hands.

Qin Yu flipped directly to the last page and saw that the last item read:

"The final interpretation of all rules of this competition rests with the competition organizer."

Qin Yu: "..."
