Seeing Qin Wenchang's detestable expression, Wan Lingqiu still wanted to retort.
However, before she could speak, Ke Wudi, Hu Sanqiang, and Zheng Wanqing arrived in the lounge.
While the other two rested below the stage, Ke Wudi strode forward to the front of the hall and cleared his throat, addressing the audience.
Wan Lingqiu had no choice but to slowly sit down, ending the debate.
"The upcoming battles may be somewhat difficult for everyone."
"After all, in the current international situation, there are too many countries that want to see our Dragon Country embarrassed."
"But you don't need to worry too much."
"All schemes and tricks are futile in the face of absolute strength."
"So, all you need to do is to fully immerse yourselves in the battle and perform at one hundred percent of your capabilities!"
"As for tactics, it's the usual, you can play freely."
"Su Nishang and Tang Junlin will be responsible for overall command, and the rest of you should cooperate as much as possible."
"I believe that with your strength, reaching the forefront of the world will be as easy as pie."
"Oh! Right, I'll pass on a few small tips."
"Try to find opponents you are most confident against, and try to occupy the most advantageous positions."
"Especially in subsequent battles with enemies, make sure you are not too far from the main force."
"Don't forget what we relied on to drive away the Eastern Islanders!"
After Ke Wudi, Hu Sanqiang and Zheng Wanying also gave brief speeches respectively.
They were all about cheering everyone on, but they didn't assign any so-called tactics.
Because Dragon Country had too many people to deal with, it was better to let them play freely than to set a framework that would restrict them.
After the Divine Supreme finished speaking, everyone entered another rest period.
This time, Qin Xuan and others went to the dining area early to have lunch. Qin Wenchang and others also restrained themselves a little due to the hint from the Divine Supreme.
Taking the last piece of steak, Qin Xuan returned to the group with a large tray of meat.
Just as he was about to start eating, his phone suddenly rang.
Qin Xuan picked up his phone and answered, only to find that it was Lucien calling, sounding very helpless.
Upon careful inquiry, it turned out that his dream of sudden wealth had been dashed.
Yes, after finding the headquarters of the dark web organization, Qin Xuan had not had time to find its warehouse and claim its contents.
So, after returning from rescuing people, he immediately asked Lucien to find the items inside.
But just now, while Lucien was escorting Xiao Aimi and the others back to the Four Seasons Hotel, the warehouse of the dark web headquarters had already been emptied, leaving not even a trace.
It was obvious that behind Che Moxi and the dark web organization, there was an even larger and more secretive organization.
"Forget it, what is destined to be will be, and what is not destined to be cannot be forced."
"What I have in my hands now is enough for me to use for some time."
"From now on, you will go directly to Dragon Country. You will discuss the acquisition of the Qin family's assets with Mike."
Shaking his head regretfully, Qin Xuan directly issued the next order to Lucien.
And this order was the direct reason he subdued Lucien.
Although he would have plenty of time to fight for control of the Qin family after returning to Dragon Country, as someone who disliked trouble, he didn't want to bother with these matters himself.
Mike was shrewd and meticulous, making him a good candidate for an agent.
However, the situation in Lacheng was complex and he couldn't be spared. Qin Xuan had no choice but to forcibly control Lucien again to plan for his future operations.
At 1:30 PM, the lunch break officially ended.
Delegation teams from dozens of countries and regions arrived at the competition venue, led by their national leaders.
The divisions from the morning had been directly removed.
Now, the main part of the entire stadium had been cleared by the staff.
A vast open space of ten thousand square meters was cordoned off as the final venue for the team battle.
"I'll say it one last time, although this martial arts competition is related to the final benefits our country will obtain, if you encounter danger, you must prioritize your own safety and not be reckless."
"Our country is already strong enough and no longer needs a supply of some resources, but you talents are the most scarce existence in our country, understand?"
"Understood!"
After a resounding roar, the Dragon Country team leader turned resolutely and left with composure.
Only Qin Xuan, Su Nishang, and the other twenty-nine cultivators remained in the waiting area, awaiting the start of the competition.
At 2:00 PM, a prompt sound echoed.
All the national teams quickly moved from their respective waiting areas into the venue.
"I declare that the team competition of this year's International Martial Arts Competition has now begun!"
As Davis's voice resounded through the stadium, the national teams immediately began to seek out allies with whom they had good relations.
The Eastern Islanders and the United States had naturally formed an alliance early on, and Dragon Country was unfortunately surrounded by them.
As the American alliance grew larger and larger around them, the expressions of the Dragon Country people gradually became grim.
This was because they found that the countries friendly to the United States were all close to them, while the friendly country of Dragon Country, the Bear Country, was positioned on the opposite diagonal, over a hundred meters away.
"Damn it, this America is too bullying!"
"Isn't this blatant abuse of privilege and cheating?"
"Aren't they afraid of other countries gossiping about them doing this?"
Seeing the members of the American alliance looking menacingly, some of the younger martial arts grandmasters could no longer hold back.
On the contrary, the older masters and grandmasters who had participated in several competitions were very calm about the situation.
"This is nothing yet."
"Two years ago in the Land of the Stick, the situation was even more outrageous."
"Setting traps, using hidden weapons, they used every trick in the book."
"It was exactly the same as how they dealt with our Dragon Country internationally!"
"But so what?"
"Didn't we still win the top prize?"
"Besides, why do you think Supreme Ke and the others kept emphasizing that we adjust our mentality?"
"It's precisely to ensure that we remain calm in the face of danger, ensure our own safety, and maximize our combat effectiveness!"
After the white-haired grandmaster finished speaking, he chuckled again.
"But don't worry, young one."
"The only ones you really need to pay attention to are teams with true masters like the United States and the Eastern Islanders."
"As for those other small countries, they are just here to show their stance and make up the numbers."
"When we start fighting, we will block those grandmaster-level superhumans."
"You should try to target the masters from smaller countries first, defeat them, and then focus on dealing with the other masters."
"Thank you, Grandmaster Song, I understand."
With the sharing of experience from the older generation of cultivators, the hearts of these young masters finally felt a little relieved.
But just as everyone cupped their fists slightly to express their gratitude to the Song family grandmaster, a discordant voice sounded again from behind them.
"Didn't you hear Supreme Ke say that this competition will be led by my cousin!"
"When the battle starts, everyone will listen to my cousin Tang Junlin's command. Anyone who doesn't listen will be disobeying orders and will be held accountable by the Supreme!"
