Using Dragon Ball as an example, as other series have definietly done this but this is coming off the top of my head, Jackie Chun (Master Roshie), cheats at the Martial Arts World Tournament so child Goku wouldn't get big headed and not lose his drive. It's up to interpretation as always. And at this point, winning a leage after losing them all the time would be a pretty good goal for me. |
Roshi didn't actually cheat; he coerced young Goku into one final attack that he knew would give him the advantage.
