A Boastful Nation
Upon arriving at the American National Pavilion, Jiang Shaoxu, who had already returned to her initial state, noticed a large display board hanging there, featuring the flags of many countries.
The time was written next to the national flag, and then there was a big X at the very end!
"What is this?" Jiang Shaoxu immediately stopped and asked.
"A record of challenges from various countries," Aoluna replied casually.
"Does this cross mean they failed the challenge? No way, this whole page is full of crosses, does that mean you've been on a winning streak for a long time?"
The National Team were all a little surprised, and Zhao Manyan couldn't help but speak up.
The strength of the American National Pavilion is estimated to be greater than that of the national governments of some middle- and upper-class countries. The team members were under great pressure when they came to the American National Pavilion this time.
Of course, the main reason was that after Tang Miao dealt with Kaso, he was told not to make any more moves before the World Championship.
There's no way around it, his strength is just too overwhelming. If it were just a solo performance, Huaxia would already be the World Academy.
However, the National Prefecture Competition is a team competition, not an individual show. If Tang Miao helps the team crush Tang Miao else, he will easily become a target. Although the whole world will choose to protect the National Team, and any incident in any country will be thoroughly investigated, nothing is absolute.
This is why Feng Li banned Tang Miao from challenging the National Pavilion again.
In fact, Tang Miao had just received the order, but he didn't care much about it. After all, even without him, Ai Jiangtu and the others would have no problem challenging the guardian of the National Pavilion.
However, it's still not as reliable as having Tang Miao on the field.
"If you scroll up to the very top, it's all crosses." Feiluomu, finally finding an opportunity to show off, said with a hint of pride.
Everyone's eyes nearly popped out of their sockets when they heard this.
Zhao Manyan, still not believing in bad luck, actually started flipping through the pages. He flipped up the large page hanging on the wall, and out of all the countries that came to challenge him, not a single one had the green success mark!
"No country has succeeded in challenging it for so long... this is just too outrageous!!" Jiang Yu couldn't help but exclaim.
You should know, they're just a group of museum caretakers...
The guards were just the second team... but this second team actually managed to take down the training teams from various countries? That's a bit too arrogant...
Of course, it's also possible that the opponent wasn't going all out, after all, this is just a national medal, not a real world competition, which is one of the reasons why no country has won so far.
"I can understand why all these countries have crossed out their names; none of them have succeeded. But why is there a cross next to our Huaxia flag, which is marked today?" Jiang Shaoxu said with some dissatisfaction.
Feiluomu glanced down and chuckled, saying, "I guess the captain knew you were coming, so he wrote down your information. Anyway, the result would be the same, so he just filled it in to avoid having to scribble it down again."
After all, our captain is the kind of person who will get angry even if you take up five extra seconds of his time with just one sentence!
Upon hearing this, everyone paused.
Even those who were a bit more good-tempered had livid faces at this moment!
Nan Jue, barely containing her anger, said, "Aren't you all looking down on people?"
Feiluomu shrugged and said casually, "You can see for yourselves. So many countries, quite a few of which are no less powerful than you, haven't received the Challenge Medal. Do you really think you can?"
Although his actions were directed at Tang Miao and his group, they also contained a hint of disdain from a powerful individual.
"This isn't about whether we can get it or not. We haven't even fought yet, and you've already drawn up the results. That's incredibly disrespectful!" Ai Jiangtu said, his face dark.
"Respect? That's something that only belongs to the strong, isn't it? Oh, I almost forgot, your country values humility. I'm sorry, but people here don't really learn humility, nor do we need to." Feiluomu shrugged, looking quite helpless.
However, his tone was full of sarcasm.
Seeing his smug look, Tang Miao said with disdain, "With your team, I could take on two of your departments in one go."
"What did you say?!" Feiluomu looked at Tang Miao with great displeasure.
Tang Miao's lips curled up slightly, and he continued, "Not convinced? Want to make a bet?"
Just as Feiluomu was about to agree, his sister Aoluna quickly changed the subject, saying, "Let's go inside first."
Aoluna couldn't say anything about her brother's arrogance. After all, all the members of the American National Pavilion were like that. In such a powerful mage kingdom, those who were selected to enter were basically the type who could do whatever they wanted.
But, a bet with Tang Miao?
Aoluna didn't even need to think; she could guess the ending. After all, she had witnessed Tang Miao's power... and she also knew a bit about Tang Miao after she returned.
Having two elemental attributes might not be possible for others. But... Tang Miao is a different story. This guy is simply a prodigy! His strength is formidable, but the key is that Innate Dual Element.
Then, ignoring Feiluomu's displeasure, Aoluna led everyone to the American National Pavilion players, who numbered about seven or eight. One of them, a handsome man with a headscarf, stood out, not because of his outstanding appearance, but because he was loudly reprimanding his teammates.
Aoluna introduced, "This is Boblin, the captain of the National Pavilion."
Upon hearing this, Boblin looked over, stopped his insults, turned his head, glanced at the Huaxia Team members, and then asked the National Team members, "Shall we not waste that time and just go up and fight?"
Feiluomu said to their captain with a hint of sarcasm, "Captain, there's a kid in their team who actually said he wants two departments to take on our team one-on-one."
Aoluna's lips twitched slightly...
Boblin frowned, looked at the National Team, and then said, "Is that so?"
The dignity of the strong cannot be challenged. Although he wouldn't care what anyone said. However, things are different in Huaxia, because they have just dealt with the Red Ornament Guild's bandits, and their reputation has soared!
Boblin had long wanted to meet this team; after all, in his opinion, they were just lucky. Besides, the members of the Red Ornament Guild weren't exactly powerful figures.
