"Chiaki, why can't you change your temper after so many years? Aren't you asking them to leave without asking them first?" An old man with a full beard stepped forward. His face was brimming with confidence. If it weren't for his white hair and beard, he would not look any different from a young man.
"What's there to ask? This kid, he's the one that doesn't know his place. He dares to say he's going to tear down our Shuangshou Pavilion. He even dares to say such disrespectful words in front of me, the eldest daughter of the Mochizuki Clan. Do you think I can tolerate it!? "snapped Mochizuki Chihaya.
"You're the one who insulted him first. That's enough, enough with the nonsense. They should be our honored guests. "The bearded old man walked to the kimono woman's side and glared at her.
"Esteemed guests?" Mochizuki Chihaya chuckled.
"Old man, your daughter is so immature. Luckily you showed up in time. Otherwise, I would have beaten her pretty face into a sumo wrestler!" said Mofan.
The old man was startled. He did not expect Mofan to speak so unconventionally.
Mochizuki Chihaya was so angry that her wooden clogs almost broke into pieces!
If it weren't for her elder Mochizuki No Ken stopping her, she would have taught the kid a lesson. How dare he say something like that? He was simply asking for it!
"You must be the representatives of China's national team here for training. Judging by the time, it should be your turn soon," Mochizuki No Ken went straight to the topic instead of aggravating the conflict.
Hearing the words, Ai Jiangtu, as the captain, went up to the old man and handed his badge to him.
The old man did not check the badge. Ai Jiangtu was confused, "Aren't you going to check it? Aren't you worried that we're impersonating you?"
"You'll have to be capable of impersonating us. I don't think anyone is dumb enough to impersonate a representative of the national team and challenge the experts of our Shuangshou Pavilion," said the old man with a smile.
"You're quite confident in your people," said Ai Jiangtu.
As soon as Ai Jiangtu finished his sentence, a man with blond hair came out from the entrance. He had obviously overheard the conversation. He said to Ai Jiangtu with a confident smile, "There aren't many people in Japan that can challenge our Shuangshou Pavilion. Why wouldn't I be confident? We'll know if you're impersonating us or not. Let's see how long you can last. "
"How long?" Guan Yu's lips twisted. He said in a displeased tone, "Friend, are you implying that the Chinese national team is no match for a bunch of defenders like you?"
"You can understand it that way," the blond Japanese man said.
"Alright, don't forget what you just said when I'm done with you and your friends. By the way, I really hate your hairstyle," said Guan Yu proudly.
Zhao Manyan was displeased as soon as Guan Yu finished his sentence!
He was already displeased when he had the same hairstyle as a Japanese, and now Guan Yu was mocking him.
"Speaking of which, you two do look a little alike. Zhao Manyan, we haven't even set up the world yet, but your father has already visited Japan. Impressive," Mofan compared Zhao Manyan and the blond Japanese, and immediately added insult to injury.
"Give our guests some rest. I'll make the necessary arrangements for the duel. Before that, you should behave like a host and show them around our Shuangshou Pavilion," Mochizuki No Ken did not bother inspecting the guests. He ushered them into the pavilion.
"By the way, we have a few female companions. They will be here later. Wait for them here. Bring them in when they're here," Mofan said to Mochizuki Chihaya.
Mochizuki Chihaya was left speechless. She snapped furiously, "Do you think I'm a maid?"
"You can interpret it that way," Mofan repeated the blond Japanese man's words to Mochizuki Chihaya.
The blond Japanese man turned around and glanced at Mofan in an unfriendly manner.
…
After entering the West Guard Pavilion, the structure of the castle began to rise. The sunken area between the walls and the castle turned into a river and a lake, scattered around the West Guard Pavilion in an irregular pattern. Apart from the side facing the cliff, the other three sides all had rivers and lakes.
The water was fairly clear. They could see the fallen leaves floating on the surface and the rocks under the water. They could even see the shadows of the leaves on the rocks.
The water must be very deep, but it looked like a shallow stream because it was too clear.
There were wooden corridors on the surface of the water, leading to lots of pavilions. It would take them some time to reach the lower part of the West Guard Pavilion!
The pavilion was split into the upper, middle, and lower part. There were many halls in the lower part of the pavilion, making it as complicated as a maze. The four directions were symmetrical and close to each other. It was difficult to tell where they were without a guide.
They could reach the middle part of the pavilion by following the stairs between the pavilions.
The middle part of the pavilion had everything, including a museum, a library, a training ground, a meditation room, a lecture hall, a hall, a temporary residence, a workshop, a forge, a pharmacy … they were all high-end facilities!
Meanwhile, the upper part of the pavilion consisted of a military meeting room, an observation tower, a guard corridor, a magic formation tower, etc. Apart from the authorities and the Magicians guarding the pavilion, no one was allowed to enter the upper part of the pavilion.
The middle part of the pavilion was the most shocking. It had all kinds of luxurious facilities. It was the perfect place for a Magician to cultivate. It basically had everything they wanted.
The golden-haired man and Mochizuki Chihaya gave them a quick tour around the pavilion. They soon arrived at the cliff.
To Mofan's surprise, the path between the two mountains was connected to a huge observation tower in the upper part of the pavilion.
If the upper part of the pavilion was off-limits, it meant that the East Guard Pavilion on the opposite side of the mountain was off-limits, too.
Most importantly, the path between the two pavilions was not a corridor, but a suspension bridge on both sides!
In other words, the West Guard Pavilion and the East Guard Pavilion had to have a suspension bridge in order to pass through the corridor.
"Is the pavilion on the opposite side not open to the public?" asked Mofan curiously.
"That place is off-limits," said the golden-haired man.
"Isn't it a waste of resources to set up a forbidden place for people to set foot in?" said Mofan.
"Who says it's a forbidden place? Either way, no one is allowed to set foot in it!" said the golden-haired man.
"Oh," Mofan nodded.
