Keeping up with Chinese Figure Skating is challenging. They hold a series of competitions called China (CN) Interclub Stages - each stage is named for the city it is held in. Skaters are grouped by test level/ability not by age.

Results can be found in Skating Scores after a bit of delay.
  • CN Stage 1 Harbin (8-9 July)
  • CN Stage 2 Shenzhen (17-18 July)
  • CN Stage 3 Hangzhou (24-26 July)
  • CN Stage 4 Weihai (29 July - 2 August)
  • CN Stage 5 Beijing (5-13 August)
  • CN Stage 6 Final (9-13 September)
Videos can often be found on YT from Tike Zhang (recommended) or Chinese sources such as Arielle12 (China YT), Bilibilli or Weibo.

Good luck. Any other suggestions would be welcome.

Few more information about Chinese InterClub Leauge. There are five events plus the final. I don't know how the rules work. The senior cathegory is more like "open" - even very young skaters can compete (probably need to have certain sill level).
List of events:
1. Harbin (8-9 July)
2. Shenzhen (17-18 July)
3. Hangzhou (24-26 July)
4. Weihai (29 July - 2 August)
5. Beijing (5-13 August)
6. Final (9-13 September).

I found a similar site to SkatingScores where the results of Chinese IntercClub League can be found (among other events): https://zhua.icu/competitions

Top 3 skaters from the Harbin event (junior women cathegory) were given Substitude entries (Yunxi Fan, Jintian Liu, Zixi Mu).
To get second spot skater has to place 1-4 on their first JGP event.
