Versatile Mage: Thunderstorm
Chapter 195 Teaching Humility
Chapter 195 Teaching Humility
The one who stopped the woman named Qianxun was a sturdy old man with a beard. He looked glorious and energetic, much better than many sub-healthy young people.
The status of the old man opposite was obviously not low. At least in the face of the other party’s scolding, although the woman looked aggrieved, she did not make any other moves.
Moreover, the old man’s brain was obviously much better than that of this crazy woman.
“You all should be members of the Chinese government who are here to train. Judging from the time, it should be almost time.”
The old man looked at the famous sword of the moon and went straight to the point.
Hearing this, Captain Ai Jiangtu also walked up and handed his identity badge to the tough old man.
The old man didn’t check, which made Ai Jiangtu a little confused.
“Don’t you need to check it out?”
“That’s not necessary. You have to be able to pretend to be a member of the National Government. Otherwise, you’d be bringing shame upon yourself in front of Shuangshou Pavilion.”
“Senior seems to be very confident in your country’s guards.”
Ai Jiangtu narrowed his eyes. As expected, these Japanese people were living a good life and were beginning to look down on others. Both the young woman and the dignified old man who looked highly respected showed undisguised arrogance.
Before the old man could reply, a blond figure walked out of the gate and answered confidently:
“Looking across Japan, there aren’t many teams that can compete with us, Soshoukaku. How could you not have this confidence? You’ll know if you’re genuine or not just by seeing how many rounds you can last against us.”
In just this short period of time, the arrogance of the Osaka National Pavilion was fully displayed, as if it had no idea how to write the word humility.
“How many rounds can you last?”
Li Yu walked out of the team and came in front of the blond man. He glanced down at him from his slightly taller height.
“well said.”
Li Yu patted the blond man’s shoulder and said calmly,
“This genius of the National Pavilion team, are you interested in having a magic duel with me in your home court?”
“After all, if it’s just a competition, it would be too boring.”
“Magic Duel?!”
Li Yu did not hide his words, and everyone present heard them. Ai Jiangtu and others did not expect Li Yu to say this, and the team from the Japanese Pavilion was even more so. The crazy Japanese woman who looked down on the Chinese glared at Li Yu directly, and the old man also gave him a meaningful look.
The one who was caught off guard the most was the blond man who was challenged by Li Yu to a magic duel. He stepped back and looked at Li Yu fiercely.
“You want to duel with me in magic?”
A magic duel is different from ordinary wizard competitions. Ordinary competitions basically stop at a certain point, but a magic duel is different. This is the only battle in which the Magic Association does not explicitly prohibit wizards from causing killings.
In other words, even if a wizard is killed by his opponent in a magic duel, his death is in vain, his opponent will not be punished in any way, and the relevant personnel are not allowed to avenge the death in public.
Generally speaking, both parties in a magic duel basically have some deep hatred between them, but there is no way of knowing the hatred between the two people who met for the first time today, so there is only one possibility left, that Li Yu, who took the initiative to propose a magic duel, is absolutely confident that he can defeat him.
“What? You don’t dare?”
Li Yu did not reply, but asked back.
This is another very cheap way of provoking someone, but for someone like the blond Japanese man, it is this kind of overt conspiracy that will make people take the initiative to get involved.
If he didn’t agree today, wouldn’t that mean he was showing his weakness? The words he had just spoken turned into a boomerang and hit him in the face.
“I answer…”
“All right.”
Just when the blond man was about to agree, the old man spoke up, blocking the blond man’s words. He smiled and said:
“The competition between the Kokufu team and the Shoukan team is only for the young elite mages of the two countries to exchange magic. Forget about the magic duel that damages the friendship between the two countries.”
“Please take a rest first, my guests. I will arrange the competition properly. Chisaki, Okamoto, please fulfill your hospitality and show the guests around Soshoukaku.”
“What? Can’t we fight now?”
Li Yu looked disappointed.
“We’re still in a hurry to get to Tokyo.”
“At least I don’t think the national pavilions here will bring me any inspiration or gain.”
“you!”
Mochizuki Chixun and Okamoto looked at Li Yu angrily, especially Chixun. She hadn’t noticed that this seemingly lazy guy could speak so irritatingly. This domineering attitude made people quite unhappy.
“Follow us, don’t walk around randomly and pollute the air of the holy land.” After leaving a word, Mochizuki Chixun walked in front, leading the way without looking back.
“A mountain is not famous for its height, but for the immortals living there; a river is not famous for its depth, but for the dragons living there.”
“Whether a place is holy or not is not determined by the land, but by the people who live there.”
Li Yu said slowly behind him:
“There are only eight of us in our group, less than a fraction of the number of people in Shuangshou Pavilion. With such a huge difference in numbers, if we can still pollute the air in your Shuangshou Pavilion, then it is not our fault. We can only say that the air in your Shuangshou Pavilion itself is rotten. We suggest that you conduct a self-examination in Shuangshou Pavilion. We should also be careful that you do not infect us.”
“Pfft.”
Seeing the dark faces of Chisaki Mochizuki and Okamoto, several members of the Kokufu team couldn’t help but hold back their laughter. Although they didn’t make any sound, their obvious actions didn’t try to hide it at all.
“Follow closely and don’t run around. If you die, Shuangshou Pavilion will not be responsible.” Mochizuki Chixun was so angry that her chest heaved rapidly. She repeated what she had just said again, only slightly changing the wording.
“I hope you can be as tough as this in the magic competition between the two countries.”
The blond man glared at Li Yu and said viciously.
“You can’t anyway.”
Li Yu glanced at the other person indifferently and said casually.
Perhaps because the Chinese government team was too uncooperative, Mochizuki Chiaki and Okamoto simply took them around the maze-like Shuangshoukaku and sent them to the assigned room. But even with a rough look, the hardware configuration here was amazing enough. Coupled with the mysterious and dangerous color added by the East Shoukaku covered by powerful restrictions, the status of Shuangshoukaku is indeed worthy of the title of the crazy woman’s magic sanctuary.
In the room, everyone began to make arrangements for the evening’s competition. Then, Li Yu gave all the team members a small shock.
“You guys take a break for now, leave this sparring to me alone.”
Li Yu said so.
“You’re alone? That’s not appropriate, right?”
Ai Jiangtu frowned. In his opinion, this kind of thing was totally unnecessary.
“correct.”
Mo Fan stood up and said indignantly:
“I was planning on disciplining that woman during the sparring match tonight.”
“I learned magic just to make such ignorant women kneel down and sing ‘Conquer’.”
“You? Discipline her?”
Li Yu looked Mo Fan up and down and shook his head.
“Give up, you can’t.”
Judging from the aura that the other party showed in front of others, Li Yu knew that unless the Japanese National Team was unprecedentedly strong this time, this woman could definitely not be a member of the National Team.
The only person who could make Okamoto from the Kokukan team respect him so much is not a member of the Kokukan team. He could only be a mentor or a super-class mage. Mo Fan had no hope against such a person.
“Why?”
Mo Fan said curiously, although Li Yu had various faults such as laziness, slacking off, and being sneaky, and he even insulted him, he was absolutely pragmatic and an honest man.
He didn’t think Li Yu would attack him for no reason.
“You’ll know when the challenge comes.” Li Yu kept it a secret, making Mo Fan feel like a kitten’s claws were scratching his heart. He swore that if he couldn’t beat him, he would definitely let Li have a taste of his flaming iron fist.
Then Li Yu began to answer Ai Jiangtu’s questions.
“There is no such thing as appropriate or inappropriate. Intelligence is important, but in the face of absolute strength, everything is in vain.”
“Whether you want to believe it or not, judging from my strength alone, it won’t be difficult for me to deal with you now.”
This was the first time that Li Yu described the difference in strength between himself and Ai Jiangtu so arrogantly and bluntly. Ai Jiangtu did not speak, and the others watched the conversation between the two in silence, not daring to breathe.
“Teach them a lesson.”
Ai Jiangtu finally spoke. He knew that he couldn’t stop the determined opponent, so he might as well take advantage of the situation.
“I will let this national pavilion team understand what humility is.”
Li Yu said indifferently that although they did not have the strength of the top countries in Europe and the United States, they had learned their arrogant style of doing things 100%. In short, some people just deserved a beating.
At the dinner, a big show is about to begin.
