The Japanese did not each much during the feast. They were already full after being provoked.
Japan had always had lots of talents. In terms of strength, they were ranked close to the top in the world. Every country that came to challenge their West Guardian Tower was utterly respectful and polite. They would even keep their voices down when they were talking.
In comparison, not only were the representatives from China utterly reckless, they were being so full of themselves when in other people's territory!
”Since you're so eager to be taught a lesson, we shall make preparations right away. Go, prepare the dueling grounds. The duels will take place right after dessert!” declared the female advisor.Find authorized novels in Webnovel，faster updates, better experience，Please click for visiting.
”Yes, Advisor Tegami!”
A few of her disciples immediately left the feast and ordered the workers in the West Guardian Tower around furiously, preparing the place.
Mochizuki Ken was about to say something, but ended up letting out a sigh when he realized that there was nothing he could do.
Such a bunch of hot-tempered young adults. Couldn't they seriously wait a while longer for something so important?
Tegami seemed to be the gatekeepers' advisor. The eyes of the gatekeepers glittered with excitement when they learned that the duels were happening tonight.
The golden-haired man, Okamoto, was grinning too. He was the impatient kind. He already had the urge to teach these impolite Chinese a lesson when he met them in the afternoon. Since they were asking to be taught a lesson so desperately, they could not blame their hosts for being too harsh on them!
They had made a great mistake if they thought the people of the West Guardian Tower were only ordinary gatekeepers!
They were the same batch of students as Japan's national team. They would not necessarily lose to the actual representatives in terms of strength.
The gatekeepers and the representatives could be switched at anytime. If any of the gatekeepers performed well, there was a high chance that they could replace someone on the national team.
Every student wanted to shine on the battlefield in Venice. Therefore, every time the national embassy was challenged, they would give their best to increase their chances of joining the national team.
”Let's discuss things while eating. Are we going to fight as a team, or one-on-one fights instead? I personally prefer one-on-one, since I believe someone is unworthy to even be a gatekeeper among them,” Gong Yu stared at the golden-haired Okamoto and cut straight to the topic.
”We'll do one-on-one fights then. The two teams will each send five representatives for the fights,” agreed Advisor Tegami.
”Advisor, let me have a go. Even a huge place like China has people that behave like a frog at the bottom of a well. I believe I'm the perfect candidate to teach such a person a lesson,” Okamoto was the first to volunteer.
Tegami shook her head and said, ”They are our guests. We'll let them pick their opponents.”
Gong Yu immediately fixed his gaze on Okamoto and said, ”I'll choose him then.”
”Advisor, the dueling grounds are ready. The safety formation is working normally,” a disciple came up and reported to Tegami respectfully.
Tegami nodded and said to the crowd, ”Let's not waste our time then, to the dueling grounds!”

The dueling grounds of the West Guardian Tower faced the ocean to the south. It was a huge platform extending out from the cliff. When the place was not in use, it could be used as a heliport instead. The crowd saw a black helicopter flying in the direction of the maritime battlefield when they arrived.
