869 Tiago’s Answer

As soon as Tiago walked out of the contestant’s lounge, he was immediately surrounded by a group of reporters.

He was already used to this situation. A faint smile appeared on his originally exhausted face and he took the initiative to welcome him.

“Tiago, congratulations on winning this round and successfully entering the top eight of this competition. May I ask if you’re confident in the next competition?”

“Tiago, you fought bitterly for half an hour before winning this competition. What do you think of your opponent, Willan?”

“Tiago, are you confident in winning the final championship?”

“Tiago…”

…

As the most eye-catching participant in the United States of Melaita, this was not the first time Tiago had faced such a scene of being surrounded by reporters. Now, he was naturally familiar with it and had always maintained a warm smile as he answered these reporters’ questions appropriately.

However, when he heard one of the reporters’ questions, his expression involuntarily changed.

“Tiago, after this competition ends, Willan expressed in an interview that if not for Chu Nan’s special willingness to lose the competition with him, the person you’re facing in this round would definitely be him. He firmly believes that it’s impossible for you to be Chu Nan’s match. What do you think?”

Hearing this question, Tiago and the other reporters around him looked at the reporter who asked the question.

In fact, this problem had been discussed by many people on the Milky Way Network before this round began. Many of them felt that Willan was right. If Chu Nan participated, Tiago would definitely be unable to defeat him.

Through the competition between Willan and Tiago, it seemed to confirm this thought.

Although Tiago finally defeated Willan, he fought bitterly for half an hour before winning. Moreover, the process looked extremely difficult, and he even almost lost a few times.

From this, it could be seen that Tiago and Willan’s strength were similar.

On the other hand, countless people had seen the competition between Willan and Chu Nan. Before Chu Nan successfully condensed the star cloud, Willan was clearly not his match. Now that he had successfully condensed the star cloud, it was even more impossible for him to defeat him.

Therefore, from this point, Chu Nan’s strength must have clearly surpassed Tiago.

However, many people expressed that competition between martial artists not only depended on the strength of the two sides on the surface but also on their improvisation. Although on the surface, Chu Nan had successfully condensed a star cloud and his strength should surpass Tiago, if the two sides fought in a true arena, it might not be obvious who would win.

Although not many people supported this view, it was at least acceptable in the hearts of the people of the United States of Melaita.

Before the competition began, no one would ask Tiago this question in person. Now that the competition between him and Willan had ended, he did not expect a reporter to immediately ask.

Tiago glanced at the reporter’s chest and discovered that he was indeed not a reporter from the United States of Melaita but from the Tulado Republic. He thought to himself that it was indeed the case and pondered for a moment before nodding, “I indeed feel very regretful that I was unable to fight Chu Nan. However, rules are rules. Since Chu Nan has already been eliminated, we can only face reality now. Willan naturally has the right to express his opinion. As for me… I really hope to have the chance to fight him in the future.”

It had to be said that Tiago’s answer was very appropriate. Not only did he show his position, but he also did not avoid the words of Willan. At the same time, he displayed powerful confidence. He was worthy of his title as the Star of the Green Academy.

However, this answer clearly would not satisfy that reporter. He frowned and immediately asked, “Then, do you think there’s a possibility of winning if you fight Chu Nan head-on?”

This question was very rude.

This reporter was not asking how confident Tiago was in defeating Chu Nan, but bluntly asking if he had the possibility of defeating him. Clearly, he felt that Tiago could not defeat him.

The surrounding reporters of the United States of Melaita glared at this reporter, but he ignored them and still looked straight at Tiago.

Tiago could not help but frown and stare at the reporter. He took a deep breath and replied, “Do you know? When Chu Nan and the other participants of the Earth Federation arrived on Planet Tomrelle, I once had a short confrontation with him.”

“Oh?” The surrounding reporters were immediately in an uproar.

Although there were rumors about this before, they had never been confirmed.

Now that Tiago had personally said it, it undoubtedly confirmed this fact.

“Then what do you mean?” the reporter hurriedly asked.

“I admit that Chu Nan does have powerful strength, but I still have doubts about whether he has successfully condensed a star cloud. Therefore, I don’t think his strength has already reached the level of a Heaven Control expert. Then, as long as he hasn’t become a true Heaven Control expert and is still a Void Break Martial Artist, I’m confident in fighting him!”

Tiago threw this sentence firmly, then pushed the reporter away and left.

Although the reporters wanted to ask, Tiago’s martial technique far surpassed the reporters after all. He disappeared in a few moves, leaving only the reporters looking at each other.

“Speaking of which… has Chu Nan really succeeded in condensing the star cloud?” A moment later, a reporter suddenly muttered to himself.

The other reporters looked at each other and shook their heads.

Although the intention displayed by Chu Nan in the competition that day was judged by many martial artists to be condensing a star cloud, because he had failed once midway, although it seemed to have been completed safely, he was still questioned in the end.

No martial artist had ever been able to succeed immediately after failing to condense a star cloud. This completely went against the common sense of martial arts.

Most importantly, Chu Nan was too young. It was simply unbelievable for him to successfully condense a star cloud at his age.

Therefore, in the past few days, many comments questioning Chu Nan had appeared on the Milky Way Network and various major media outlets. Because no one had ever been able to refute these comments personally, they had obtained the support of many people.

Now that Tiago had expressed the same doubt, it was very difficult for the reporters to directly refute.

After looking at each other for a while, the reporters immediately felt that it was meaningless to continue dwelling on this problem. They muttered to each other and dispersed.

While the reporters were discussing these questions, Tiago had already walked into the contestant passageway.

After today’s competition ended, there was still a day of rest before the next round of eight to four. Therefore, he could directly return to the base to rest and prepare for battle. There was no need to continue staying here.

He had just taken two steps in the passageway when he suddenly stopped.

Looking at the corner of the passageway ahead, a strong sense of danger surged into his heart.
