Jiang Yu picked up a rock when he heard the warning.
He tossed it at the drawbridge. The rock was as big as a fist, and flew at the drawbridge in a perfectly straight line…
Nothing happened when the rock was traveling inside the boundary of the West Guardian Tower. However, when it was about to reach the other side of the drawbridge, a few arcs of lightning appeared in the sky.
Thick lightning bolts a few times wider than the ones that Mo Fan usually summoned descended from the sky. Each one of them was extremely impressive on its own, but currently, more than ten of them had appeared on the cliff opposite of them, forming a wall of lightning as they danced wildly!
The rock was blown to dust. The dancing wall of lightning lasted for a few more seconds, extending as far as their vision could reach and completely covering the West Guardian Tower. It was not just visually impressive, it was awesome, too! They felt minuscule when they witnessed the spectacular sight, as if death was just around the corner!
“Holy f**k!”
Everyone’s face turned pale when they saw the lightning. Who would have thought a tiny rock would trigger such a terrifying scene?
“Can any of you listen to the rules for once? Your actions are going to bring us a lot of troubles,” yelled the golden-haired man furiously.
“We didn’t expect that to happen either! The West Guardian Tower looks perfectly normal, but not only did you make it a restricted area, you even set up such a powerful formation to protect it! Isn’t this place still inside the city too?” said Jiang Yu in astonishment.
“It’s none of your business. We’re pretty much done with the tour. I’ll come and get you guys before dinner tonight. Please excuse me!” The golden-haired man walked away furiously.
Mochizuki Chihaya was not in a good mood either. She had no reason to keep them company, and she obviously still had a grudge against Mo Fan. She glared at him before taking her leave.
Mo Fan chuckled, watching her thick bottom wrapped tightly by the kimono as she left.
Even though her face and body were quite attractive, Mo Fan seriously could not stand her pride. She totally lacked the gentleness, caring, kindness, and elegance that a classic Japanese woman had.
“I’m telling you all, I’m definitely going to pick that arrogant bitch to be my opponent during the duels. She seriously needs to learn a lesson. The reason I’ve learned magic is to teach an ignorant foreign woman like her how to sing ‘Conquer’!” said Mo Fan.
{TL Note: Conquer (征服) is a famous Chinese song. There’s a sentence in it that means “I’ve been conquered by you like that”. It has now become an Internet slang for when someone is determined to defeat their opponent until they beg for mercy.}
“Didn’t you say on the train you’ve learned magic because you want to slaughter the demon creatures?” said Jiang Yu.
“They don’t contradict one another at all!”
“As long as I’m taking on the golden-haired c**t; I have long waited to find a suitable punching bag. Too bad the advisors have warned us not to have any infighting,” said Guan Yu.
“Guan Yu, I swear I’ll beat you up right now!” snapped Zhao Manyan.
“I won’t fight you, I wouldn’t want to waste my precious spot for a mere substitute like you. I’m still looking forward to showing off my talents at Venice, so I have nothing but patience for you until Venice,” said Guan Yu.
“Patience my ass!” cursed Zhao Manyan.

The dinner was held on the lower floor, a feast in a well-decorated hall. Many VIPs of the West Guardian Tower had attended the feast to welcome the representatives of China’s national team.
That being said, among the people were a bunch of young, proud students who were selected as the gatekeepers for the National Training Hall.
These students were the top Japanese Magicians chosen from various institutes. They had gone through months of special training in order to serve as a challenge for the training of the representatives from other countries.
Every national team had to go through the same challenges. Only those who collected enough approvals from the training centers of different countries were allowed to participate in the final battle in Venice. The West Guardian Tower in Osaka was the first challenge for China’s national team. Their advisors were being carefree so far, but they still had to treat the challenge seriously!
The gatekeepers at every country’s national training centers were not necessarily weaker than the national teams. As a matter of fact, some gatekeepers were even stronger than the national team, with perfect synergy and teamwork!
There were more than a hundred countries in the world, yet there were only a few that could make it to Venice. Challenging the national training centers was a part of the journey. If the gatekeepers were too weak, wouldn’t it mean every national team could easily overcome the challenge?
The girls had arrived around dinner time. They made it just in time, and were still carrying the stuff that they had bought in Osaka.
Jiang Shaoxu in particular had a pile of luxuries, clothing, shoes, bags, and jewelry stacked up beside her table…
“It seems like you’re enjoying yourself. I remember Korea’s national team spent most of their time training diligently when they came here, but they still suffered a great loss. Meanwhile, the first thing you girls did in Osaka was shopping…you’re no different than secular girls,” the advisor of Japan’s Training Hall finally sniffed.
The advisor was around fifty, her hair tied up high in a bun, her eyes sharp. She was obviously a strict woman who had entered menopause. She had a grudge against extravagant young women, or those who wasted their time doing something other than cultivating.
“I’m a Magician, but I’m also a woman. Besides, your gatekeepers don’t look tough at all. My laziness isn’t from vanity.” Jiang Shaoxu was far from a friendly person. She already learned how the others were treated by the Japanese in the West Guardian Tower, so she had no intention to respect them, either.
Jiang Shaoxu’s words immediately offended the Japanese present at the feast. The advisors, military personnel, young Magicians and gatekeepers all frowned. The atmosphere changed instantly.
“Quite a sharp tongue you have, but can you live up to it?” shot back a flirtatious female gatekeeper in a strong mocking tone. She did not conceal her disdain and grudge against Jiang Shaoxu.
“I believe this feast is pretty extra, we already enjoyed lots of delicacies in Osaka in the afternoon. Strange though, considering how good the food is, the people here make me feel uncomfortable. Why don’t we get on with the duels tonight, so we can stamp your face with our feet? We still have places to go next,” Jiang Shaoxu slowly rose to her feet. Her words had a strong smell of gunpowder!
The Japanese in the West Guardian Tower totally lost their temper after hearing her words. She had described the approval stamp as stomping their faces with her feet. Such humiliation!
The hall instantly fell silent, but unlike the usual kind, it was like the calm before a great storm!
“Jiang Shaoxu, don’t say that…” Mo Fan dragged Jiang Shaoxu back to her seat.
Mochizuki Chihaya had already risen from her seat. She barely controlled her temper when she saw Mo Fan trying to stop Jiang Shaoxu’s disrespectful acts.
“You girls are already full after eating in Osaka, but the rest of us are starving. At least let us finish dinner before starting the duels,” Mo Fan continued.
The faces of the Japanese in the West Guardian Tower twisted. It felt like they were screaming bakayaro for at least ten thousand times in their hearts.
The rage that Mochizuki Chihaya tried very hard to withhold was almost spat out in a mouthful of blood. The sound of the silver spoon in her hand being snapped in half was clearly audible!
