Shanghai Pudong Airport…

A team of young, tanned men and women walked out from the international arrival hall. Among them, a tall man with a high nose bridge took his sunglasses off and checked his surroundings…

“I thought we were going to find ourselves among buildings made of bricks, stones, and wood. It turns out that China isn’t too far behind from most countries, at least the airport isn’t as bad as I thought…” Sayed grinned, revealing his dimples.

A bunch of girls who were studying abroad happened to pass by. They looked at the man who looked both handsome and naughty, like a prince on a black horse. They quickly whispered among themselves, but none of them had the courage to take another glance at him!

“He’s so handsome, he looks like Louis Koo!”

“I think his eyes are very attractive, his pupils are blue, I’ve never seen a man’s eyes like blue gems. Which country are they from?”

“No idea, but their language sounds strange…”

The girls continued walking. After walking a distance away, they secretly turned around and saw the handsome man staring at them, too. They immediately raised their chests and shook their hips while walking on their heels. They ignored the man’s gaze like proud princesses and headed for the exit.

“The girls in this country are interestingly fake,” Sayed had already heard the whispers of the girls. He was a Magician after all; his hearing was several times stronger than a normal person.

“Let’s go, we have some important matters to attend to after acquiring the stamp,” another woman with curly hair spoke up.

“It’s because of the air-con.”

“The air is humid outside, too.”

“We are close to the beach… you should stay under the sand forever, since there’s never a place that suits you,” Sayed quickly caught up to the team of ten people.

“Is anyone aware of how strong China is?” asked Meos.

“We shouldn’t waste too much time at the Training Hall. Go do your business, I can handle the Training Hall myself,” Sayed smiled.

“You shouldn’t underestimate them.”

“How am I underestimating them? We would have sent Shreev instead if we were underestimating them,” Shreev looked at a man with a bucktooth nearby.

The man with a bucktooth glared at Sayed while pointing at his nose.

As the man was relatively short, he had to stand on his toes while pointing at someone else. He looked rather amusing.

“What do you mean by that? Why don’t we have a fight now!” snapped Shreev furiously.

“I will never be scared of you.”

“Enough, no infighting!” said the woman called Meos.

“Sayed, we’ll leave the Training Hall to you. We can only stay in Shanghai for a day. We must immediately depart for the Ancient Capital Xi’an tomorrow. It’s our real goal!” said Meos.

“We will depart on time, you have my word!” Sayed smiled confidently.

China’s National Training Hall was located close to Huangpu River, between Oriental Pearl Park and the IFC building. Most foreigners immediately saw the modernization of China. Many foreigners still assumed that people in China were still wearing chi-pao and living in old houses due to the influence of long-outdated ancient TV dramas.

Sayed asked around for directions with weird-sounding English and managed to find the National Training Hall after half an hour. During this time, his stereotypical view of China had improved slightly.

However, having a modern city was not necessarily equal to a high standard for Magicians. As a Magician from one of the four ancient civilizations, Egypt, their magic was the purest and noblest!

Hang on, that didn’t sound right. China was also one of the four ancient civilizations…

Forget it, surely China wasn’t as old and pure as Egypt!

Sayed walked up to the spectacular entrance of a half-spherical structure and asked an armed guard, “Excuse me, is this the place of challenge for national teams participating in the World College Tournament?”

“It is, but the place isn’t open to visitors. Please leave,” said the guard calmly after taking a glance at the foreigner.

Visitors would occasionally end up at the National Training Hall, since it was located close to the Oriental Pearl Tower and some famous skyscrapers. Jun Ge had no choice but to repeat the same sentence every day. If he was allowed to bring a recorder, he would definitely use it to greet the visitors.

“I’m not here to visit, I’ve come here to challenge,” Sayed said in a serious voice with a confident expression.

“You? It’s just you?” Jun Ge was startled. He immediately asked for identification.

Sayed took out the badge that served as every national team’s identification with the same confident smile on his face.

“Can I go in now?” asked Sayed.

“Well… why is it only you? Shouldn’t the whole team from Egypt be here, too?” Jun Ge asked with a confused face.

“The team only sent me here. I’m the representative. The others have important matters to attend to,” said Sayed honestly.

“I’ll bring you in first, then.” Jun Ge asked another guard to take his spot as he led Sayed into the National Training Hall.

The National Training Hall was around the size of three soccer fields. The place had different types of terrain, such as forests, sand, rock, and grass, where the duels would take place. The roof of the building was the hemisphere, floating right above the dueling grounds!

Sayed was impressed by the spectacular view, since his homeland was not willing to spend so much money on building such a fancy dueling hall. That being said, the appearance of the building did not really mean anything to him.

“There are quite a number of people here? Didn’t you say that the Training Hall isn’t open to visitors?” Sayed looked around and saw at least a hundred people in the building. Most of them looked fairly young.

Some were having duels, while others were spectating from the side. Others were surrounding people that looked like instructors while listening to them speak.

“There aren’t many teams that have visited China yet. The candidates here have to undergo training, too. As such, they ask their institutes to send some talented students over to duel with them. There’s actually a friendly match today, are you interested in it?” explained Jun Ge.

“It’s fine, don’t worry about it, I don’t have time to waste on their show. Just hurry up with the challenge so I can regroup with my team. We really have something important to do,” said Sayed in a serious voice.

His arrogant attitude simply did not take Jun Ge’s feelings as a citizen of China into consideration.

-Damn, isn’t this guy a bit too full of himself!-

Not only did he come alone to challenge them, he even described the duels between the top students as a show. Once their students beat the crap out of him, he would simply forget what country he was from!

Even though Jun Ge was displeased with how smug the guy was, he still brought the guest to the instructors politely.
