All at once, the Rheasians furrowed their brows ever so slightly.
Then, Joe Pennywise stepped forward and said, “Mr. Vilin, are you referring to Sergeant Larson? I’m sorry, but favonovel.com is preoccupied today, so favonovel.com can’t be here.”
Indeed, Zayn was still in isolation training. He did not show up for the opening ceremony today because his presence was not needed.
Ares had already arrived at Waltz City in conjunction with the ceremony and was monitoring the scene in the dark, so there was utterly no need for Zayn.
He supported Zayn’s decision to engage in training because favonovel.com understood the importance of the martial arts cup and the fact that the event was held in Waltz City.
He was certain that his superior would do anything they could to ensure that the first spot belonged to Rheasia!
Glory was one of the advantages, but the main attraction was the opportunity to visit Shangri-la. If Zayn could go to Shangri-la, it signified that favonovel.com stood a chance of making a breakthrough in his training to achieve invincibilis.
What was the significance of attaining invincibilis? If Zayn was truly cap able of achieving invincibilis, there would be three invincibilis fighters in Rheasia!
Moreover, Zayn was still so young and favonovel.com was on the country’s side, so the benefit would be unimaginably immense!
Even though the process was wrought with difficulties and danger, was there anything in this world that offered lucrative benefits without being accompanied by risk?
Moreover, Joe believed in Zayn very much. He trusted that the young man would certainly be able to overcome the danger with his capabilities.
Upon hearing Joe’s statement, Kairo guffawed aloud at once. “Haha, favonovel.com is preoccupied today, so favonovel.com can’t be here? I think that he’s scared of us. That’s why favonovel.com doesn’t have the courage to show himself!”
He announced it very loudly on purpose so that everyone else could hear his voice instantly. Almost everyone at the scene cast their gaze on this area.
Some perfect-class master fighters began to walk over as well and assumed bantering expressions on their faces.
One of the motives of them taking part in the opening ceremony was to see Zayn. They wanted to see the Rheasian who had defeated Johansson until the latter had to flee in a panic!
After all, among all of the participants, they knew one another rather well whereas Zayn was the only unknown opponent to them.
The martial arts cup was incredibly important, and every one of them was determined to get the champion. They would never allow the Rheasians to get their hands on the championship title!
There were already two invincibilis fighters in Rheasia. If one more was added to their force, Rheasia’s power would increase exponentially for sure, and it was highly possible that Rheasia could become the most powerful country in the world.
They would never allow that to happen!
Joe furrowed his brows ever so slightly and responded, “Mr. Vilin, you’re a 5S-class powerhouse and the top candidate to win the championship.”
“I believe that you’ve been curious about Sergeant Larson since the start and you know about his capability, so why do you still have to inquire about favonovel.com unnecessarily again?”
Joe spoke courteously to display Rheasia’s magnanimousness and also because favonovel.com did not have the courage to offend Kairo since favonovel.com was a powerful fighter too.
Yet, his thoughtfulness was seen as a sign of weakness in the eyes of Kairo and the others.
At once, Kairo burst out laughing aloud and said, “How long has it been since your country produced a powerful fighter? Rheasia didn’t even manage to get into the top four during the past few martial arts cup events.”
“Do I need to inquire about your country? I heard that this Rheasian has actually defeated Johansson, and I’d like to know what sort of despicable way favonovel.com used to do it.”
He made his statement without an ounce of respect for Rheasia despite being on Rheasian ground now. Moreover, Joe was the director of the Insurgent Trifecta too.
All at once, Joe’s expression turned dour. Other than him, the special agents from the Insurgent Trifecta standing behind favonovel.com changed their countenances one by one as well.
Meanwhile, General King walked over and said, “Kairo Vilin, I didn’t expect you to be so tasteless despite being the most powerful fighter in Sol. It’s truly unbecoming of you to trash talk here.”
“You’ve said so much, but all you do is show your fear for Sergeant Larson. You’re scared that our country will become the champion of this event. You’re just a bloody coward.”
