However, things often do not develop as people expect, and accidents always follow. Zizhou had already planned to meet up with Ai Jiangtu and others, but fate seemed to play a joke on him. Instructor Feng Li suddenly changed course and took Zizhou in another direction - that was the Mage Tower in Dubai, where the famous Asian Rubik's Cube Association is located.
Zizhou followed behind Master Feng Li in a daze, his heart full of doubts and confusion. Soon, they arrived at their destination and successfully met with Dean Songhe who had been waiting there for a long time. Afterwards, the three of them stepped into the mysterious conference room hanging high in the sky.
The conference was grand in scale, with not only representatives from China attending, but also important figures from countries such as India and Japan. Zizhou, who was brought to the meeting due to unexpected circumstances, was now standing quietly behind Teacher Feng Li, silently observing the changes in the situation in the venue.
Since he was the youngest among everyone present, he naturally attracted everyone's attention. At this moment, a member of the Japanese delegation stood up suddenly, pointed the finger at Teacher Feng Li, and accused him bluntly.
"Feng Li, how can you allow students to participate in this meeting? This is clearly a serious violation! In my opinion, China should be disqualified from competing for the Saint Mage's Dark Night Cloak!"
This person spoke sharply and had a tough attitude, as if he had found something strong holding on China.
At the same time, members of the Indian delegation also echoed the sentiment, each with an excited look on their face, obviously believing that if China lost the qualification to participate due to violations, they would have more opportunities to compete. For a moment, the atmosphere in the entire conference room was extremely tense and a heated debate was about to break out.
However, reality is bound to disappoint those who have doubts. Zizhou walked forward steadily and neither humbly nor arrogantly. His upright figure seemed to contain endless strength and confidence. Obviously, Zizhou attached great importance to this crucial meeting.
After walking in front of the crowd, Zizhou bowed slightly, then said in a clear and firm voice: "Dear everyone, please allow me to introduce myself to you. I am Qin Zizhou, the pre-court mage, and I am honored to participate in this meeting as one of our country's representatives. As far as my identity is concerned, I firmly believe that I am fully qualified to participate in this meeting."
As soon as he finished speaking, Zizhou's eyes as bright as stars looked straight towards where the Japanese delegation was. At the same time, a decent and calm smile appeared on his face. This smile not only perfectly demonstrates his inner confidence, but also conveys an unwavering attitude.
At this moment, people who had originally doubted Zizhou's attendance fell silent. There was a brief silence at the scene, followed by a slight but noticeable commotion. Everyone's eyes were focused on this young but powerful Chinese student.
Feng Li and Song He, who had been paying close attention to the development of the situation, couldn't help but reveal a look of satisfaction in their eyes. They were well aware of Zizhou's outstanding adaptability at this moment, which successfully resolved the possible embarrassing situation and restored the entire scene to its original harmonious state.
However, compared with the calmness of the Chinese representatives, members of the delegations from the other three countries were feeling turbulent waves in their hearts at this moment. They were especially shocked when Zizhou announced his identity as "court mage candidate".
Although they had limited knowledge of China's mage class system, the term "court mage" was not unfamiliar to them. Because in China, "court mages" have always been regarded as the top first-tier existence, and even if they are reserve mages, it is a recognition of their strength. This means that the actual strength of this seemingly ordinary Chinese student is probably far beyond the level of the National Government Team that is generally known to people. It can be imagined that in time, after Zizhou grows up, he will definitely become a formidable and powerful fighting force!
No matter what the people around thought, the meeting continued as usual. The atmosphere in the meeting hall was solemn, people were whispering and talking, but this did not affect the progress of the meeting at all.
After intense discussions and debates, this long meeting finally made a crucial decision: that is, to clarify the criteria for determining victory or defeat! The key criterion is to see which country's government team can successfully eliminate the dreaded Red Ornament Guild. Once a national team achieves this goal, the mysterious and powerful Dark Night Cloak will belong to them.
Zizhou finally went to reunite as he wished, but this time he went alone.
Looking around, the vast ocean is like a huge piece of blue silk, sparkling under the sunlight. The sea is calm, as if time has stopped here and everything is so leisurely and comfortable. However, in sharp contrast, the villages on both sides of the river are filled with a suffocating atmosphere of tranquility. This is the dreaded Caribbean Sea, a place of bloodthirstiness and desire.
Zizhou stood quietly on the beach, gazing at the seemingly peaceful scene, but a sense of uneasiness rose in his heart. It is really too quiet here. There is no ship sailing on the sea, and no old people and children playing on the shore. This lifeless silence struck him as unusual.
"As expected of the Caribbean Sea, there's something strange about it everywhere."
This was Zizhou’s first feeling when he first arrived here. Deep in his heart, he felt more alert and vigilant. But right now, he didn't have any extra time to ponder these anomalies, because he had more important things to do - find Ai Jiangtu and others and meet up with them.

So Zizhou hurried along the coastline. Along the way, Zizhou kept moving forward. Finally, after a lot of travel, we arrived at Lanshi Town.
As soon as he arrived, he heard Mo Fan and Zhao Manyan discussing Yue Xiong, a female opponent. Zizhou was speechless about their lust. Didn't he see that the Japanese player on the opposite side was about to lose his temper? What a worrying teammate.
Bang!
"Ouch! Who dares to hit me?"
“Hiss! It hurts so much!”
Who knew that when Mo Fan and Zhao Manyan looked up, they saw Zizhou looking at them angrily with his fist raised. They stopped shouting immediately and happily walked over to Zizhou and pulled him to look.
"Zizhou, you're finally back. You don't know how worried I was during the time you were away!"
Zizhou looked at Mo Fan, who lied without thinking, and Zhao Manyan, who looked guilty, and the corners of his mouth twitched unconsciously.
"Haha~ I didn't realize that. If I hadn't heard what you said just now, I would have really believed you!"
Mo Fan and Zhao Manyan were so guilty that they stopped looking at Zizhou and turned their heads to the sides without looking at him.
The commotion here naturally attracted everyone's attention. Ai Jiangtu was the first to notice it and the first to run towards Zizhou.
After Zizhou appeared, many people in the Kuomintang team came to show concern for him. After all, it was Zizhou who saved them at that time, and they also knew how to repay their gratitude. So most people are worried that Zizhou will not be able to come back, except for a few, such as Li Kaifeng, who is now at the end of the team because of Zizhou. There has been no elimination round within the team yet. But after Chizhou came back, they had to enter the elimination round. Although he was very grateful to Zizhou for rescuing them, Zizhou's return also meant that the possibility of him being eliminated was greatly increased.
The two teams nearby were a little confused by Zizhou's appearance. After all, they had never seen Zizhou before, and he seemed to be a very important person in the Chinese National Government team.
