Chapter 1730 : Total Domination (1)
"It\'s fine. It\'s not like she understood what happened nor could she follow what happened. I can cover her eyes as well when it becomes too gruesome."
Of course, they did not buy it, and Ava looked like she wanted to bring Tang Xiulan back with her.
"Let me stay with her a little bit longer. I only have one week before my big mission."
When he mentioned that, his wives softened. They relented and let Tang Xiulan stay with Tang Shaoyang.
They were about to head to their seats, but a group of three stopped in front of them. They were the people from The Duchy of Michalina. The Duchy herself came to meet Tang Shaoyang.
"Hello, Your Majesty," Michalina greeted politely, with a slight bow in the form of respect to him. She waved her hand at Tang Xiulan with a big smile.
Tang Xiulan did not recognize the woman, but she was not shy with the stranger. She looked Michalina in the eyes, then she looked at her father and mother. As if she was asking who Michalina was.
Tang Shaoyang knew that Michalina wanted to talk with him privately. But it was hard to drive away someone who came at him politely.
"Hello," He responded with a nod.
"Is she your daughter?" Michalina smiled brilliantly and took this chance to come closer to her daughter, but her target was actually the father.
"Yes. Her name is Tang Xiulan."
Michalina nodded and turned toward Tang Shaoyang. She could tell from how Tang Shaoyang responded to her that she was not so welcome here. But she did not give up and got straight to the point, realizing that complimenting his daughter might not work.
"Have you considered the meeting, Your Majesty?"
Tang Shaoyang was prepared, "You can have a discussion with my wives. They are representing me and The Tang Empire. She is The Tang Empire\'s Supreme General, and she is the Tang Empire\'s Prime Minister."
He presented Zhang Mengyao and Li Shuang. Both were in charge of the Tang Empire during his absence, and he would like them to continue to do so. Of course, he still made the final decision regardless of what they discussed.
Michalina was visibly disappointed hearing the response, but she recovered quickly, maintaining her graceful smile.
"Thank you for the chance, Your Majesty."
She bowed toward Tang Shaoyang before looking at Li Shuang and Zhang Mengyao. Zhang Mengyao gestured her hand to the door behind The Tang Empire\'s seat, gesturing to Michalina that they could start the meeting right now.
"Go back! I will go by myself!"
Michalina showed that she had complete trust in The Tang Empire. She was not worried about getting attacked.
The two guards hesitated, but she insisted they go back. The two guards headed back to the Duchy of Michalina\'s seats, and she followed Zhang Mengyao and Li Shuang to the room.
Tang Shaoyang was not curious in the slightest about what they wanted to talk about. He headed to his seat with his daughter and his wives.
Even though Ashley\'s team was not the contender for the top three, her team was one of the last twenty-three teams. Her plan to play it safe backfired. She survived to the end without losing anyone, but she did not have enough teams to eliminate to win the tournament.
Twenty-three teams were in the last circle. The teams from the four different areas stayed at the edge instead of going to the center of the island which was an open field. It was designed to be an area for the teams to fight the final fight.
Even though it was the last circle, it was still a massive open area. The team from the opposite area would not be able to meet by coming out from their respective area. There was still a quiet distance, and yet no one dared to step into the last area.
Everyone was afraid that the first one to come out from their hiding spot would be attacked by several teams at once.
The last twenty-three teams were from the big factions. The Tang Empire, The United Sovereign, and The North Federation still had three teams. Faith and Order, The Whitney Kingdom, The Mecaya Kingdom, The Pantheon, and the Duchy of Michalina still had two teams. The African Nation, The Kingdom of Sand, Olympus, and The Kingdom of Napoles only had one surviving team.
Tang Shaoyang just placed his butt on the seat, and the spectators made a noise. He looked up, and the screen highlighted four teams. Ashley\'s team was facing The Faith and Order\'s team in the grass field area. On the second screen was Zaneos\' team against The North Federation\'s team in the desert area.
Unlike the swamp and the forest area where teams still could hide, no one could hide in the desert and the grassland.
The Clash of the big teams was the most highly anticipated fight among all, except it was when The Tang Empire\'s team was involved. So far, The Tang Empire\'s team never lost, and all three teams did not lose a single member. Their teams were intact, six people.
Meanwhile, The North Federation\'s team that met with Zaneos\' team only had three surviving members: Demi-God Rank, Legend Rank, and Myth Rank.
The Faith and Order team that met with Ashley\'s team was in a better condition with four surviving members: Demi-God Rank, Legend Rank, Primordial Rank, and Ancient Rank.
Both teams would face their toughest challenge in the final phase of the battle royal.
