Chapter 722 Cheating
Upon hearing the results announced by the host, the Johnville Team couldn’t sit still.
Jason stood up and shouted loudly, ” This is absolutely impossible. Someone must be cheating.”
The students of the Johnville Team also cheered along with Jason. They simply did not believe they
would lose.
Faced with the audience’s uproar, the Styre Team’s representative could not say anything either.
Forget about the Johnville Team. Even they found it unbelievable when they heard the result.
Upon seeing the expression of the delegation from the Styre Team, Jason seemed to have realized
something, and he pointed at them, shouting loudly, “I see, so you must have bribed the judges in order
to win. Is that right? You guys are really shameful, resorting to such hical means just to win.”
The actual situation was not yet known.
Jason was cursing indiscriminately.
This had really angered the members of the Styre Team, especially Eamon.
The two sides argued fiercely, and Ronin couldn’t stand it when the group from Johnville kept
ndering Catherine, so he stood up as well.
He never followed the familiar path in his actions. He directly jumped onto the stage, took the host’s
microphone, and pointed seriously at the judges in the judges’ seats. “Have you guysmitted
treason and colluded with the enemy?”
The sound of the microphone reverberated throughout the venue. Coupled with Ronin’s provocative
topic, it instantly captured everyone’s attention.
The several judges being pointed at looked at Ronin in confusion, not knowing what he meant by his
words.

“What nonsense are you talking about? How could we possiblymit treason and collude with the
enemy!”
“Absolutely ridiculous!”
Ronin sneered. “You are all citizens of Theisia. Without your support, how did the Styre Team win? Isn’t
it because you betrayed your country and sold it out for your own benefit?”
Three of the judges on the judging panel were from Theisia, which constituted a significant portion of
the total.
The judges from Alton ounted for half of the total. In recent years, Eskana had risen and was
considered the number one rival by Alton, so it was impossible for the team of Eskana to receive any
help.
If the Styre Team wanted to bribe the judges, then the difficulty was even higher than winning the
championship.
The people who just thought that what Jason said made sense and suspected that the Styre Team had
bribed the judges suddenly didn’t know how toe to a conclusion after hearing what Ronin said.
Finally, the chairman of the judging panel, Richard, couldn’t bear to watch any longer, and he stood up
voluntarily. “I solemnly dere that the Bide Cup is an international scientificpetition with
authoritative status in the researchmunity and will absolutely not tolerate any cheating. Since
everyone has doubts about this matter, the panel will publicly disy the experimental results of the
two teams to demonstrate fairness.”
The experimental results needed to be sealed. But it had now sparked controversy. As the chairman of
the judging panel, Richard had the authority and obligation to investigate the results to ensure the
fairness and rigor of thepetition.
If this matter was not handled, both the officials of the Bide Cup and the Styre Team would be
questioned.
“Representatives from the Styre Team and the Johnville Team, do you have any objections?” asked
Richard.
Upon hearing Richard’s inquiry, the representatives of the Styre Team responded promptly. “Chairman,
we have no objections. Please publicly demonstrate the experimental results to prove our innocence.”
Although Johnville’s mentor was somewhat reluctant and unwilling, in order to find the truth, he
eventually agreed.
In order to avoid subjective bias, the organizers would showcase the experimental products from both
parties anonymously.
The theme of this time was to design a chip. Because specific requirements had been provided, as
long as thepleted chip could carry out the designated instructions, it could be considered okay.
The first chip was disyed in front of everyone. After the demonstration, the chip was perfect in terms
of both speed and smoothness of operation, with a high level ofmand.
If anyone were to pay attention to the Johnville Team at this moment, he would see the pride that they
were currently trying to conceal on their faces.
Their mentor ordered them not to show any sign of their skills, just to take this opportunity to embarrass
the Styre Team in public.
Now that their work was being showcased, they were just waiting to humiliate the Styre Team.
The first experimental work had been exhibited, and now the exhibition of the second experimental
work would begin.
When the second piece of work was disyed, the doubts in everyone’s mind continued to increase.
From the final performance of the work, it was evident that the smoothness of the second prototype
was significantly superior to that of the first work.
‘Is the second work the real result of the Johnville Team?’ the onlookers thought.
However, even so, the strength of the Styre Team was still quite astonishing.
With such a short time, they were able to achieve such experimental results. They definitely showed
great potential and could easily rank in the top five. It was a pity to see it get eliminated like this.
After all the experimental works were presented, Richard stepped back to the center of the stage. “Both
works have been reviewed by everyone. You are all professionals in the industry. I believe you can
judge the quality very objectively. Now, please loudly tell me which work should win, the first one or the
second one!”
Almost without hesitation, the crowd announced loudly, “The second work!”
“Very well. Now let’s announce the creative team behind the winning work! “Richard said.
On therge screen, the sealed paper in front of theboratory equipment was removed.
The words “Styre Team” appeared prominently in front of everyone.
At this moment, the air seemed to freeze as everyone present couldn’t believe what they were seeing.
The whole scene was in an uproar, yet only the beautiful Eskana girl sitting in the corner remained calm
and unaffected, casually ying with her phone. “Are you dead? Hurry up and finish him!”
Sitting beside Catherine, Marshall originally thought she was finally going to explode when he saw her
frown. However, after hearing what she said, Marshall’s heart almost turned cold.
The Bide Cuppetition, eagerly anticipated by many, seemed insignificant in the eyes of Catherine.
The result of thispetition was not as important as a game for Catherine.
She did not give the Bide Cup, an internationalpetition, any face. But this was understandable.
Catherine was not a normal person, after all.
Just now, Marshall also saw the results disyed by that chip. Honestly, even if he were to go on stage
personally, he probably couldn’t achieve those results in such a short time.
‘Catherine actually did it. She’s simply crazy!’ thought Marshall.
“How… how is this possible?” Jason stared in disbelief at the big screen, totally at a loss for words.
The first piece was definitely their team’s experimental result. He could recognize it. He also admitted
that the second work was better than the first one.
‘But how could such excellent worke from the Styre Team?’ he thought.
As for cheating… This was the Bide Cup, the most famous researchpetition in the world. It was
almost impossible to cheat in thispetition.
‘Even the Altonian Team, who was the host, wouldn’t be able to cheat easily. Let alone Eskana’s Styre
Team. Are they really cheating?’ thought Jason.
