In the face of life and death, a glimmer of cunning flashed in Maple Leaf's eyes, and his strategies spread like wildfire in his mind. He leaned closer to Chovy and Ximen, whispering his thoughts to them. The scars on his face and dark circles under his eyes seemed to testify to his sly nature at that moment. Maple Leaf's expression resembled that of a conspirator, his gaze flickering with the light of intrigue. He quickly scanned his companions and quietly proposed to Chovy and Xiong Wen'an the idea of joining forces to launch a simultaneous attack against Wei Dong's overwhelming magical power.
"Listen, if the three of us go together, we might be able to put some pressure on him; at least it would be stronger than going solo," Maple Leaf said, urgency and scheming evident in his voice. "He may be incredibly powerful, but he is just one person. We can use our numbers to overwhelm him, at least divert his attention."
Chovy hesitated slightly, his brow furrowed as he clearly felt some psychological resistance to this dishonorable strategy. However, as Maple Leaf continued to explain in hushed tones, his expression gradually relaxed, seemingly convinced by Maple Leaf's reasoning. After listening, Xiong Wen'an fell silent for a moment, a calculating gleam flashing in his eyes before he finally nodded in agreement with the plan.
Seeing their reactions, Maple Leaf's smug expression became even more pronounced. He knew well that this approach might not be honorable, but in desperate circumstances, it was the only plan they could think of that might offer a glimmer of hope. The tension in his face seemed to foreshadow an impending storm, while the sly smile drawn by cunning reflected his anticipation for the upcoming chaos.
Feigning nonchalance, Maple Leaf quickly moved closer to Xiong Wen'an, rapidly closing the distance between them. He lowered his head as if afraid others might overhear and cautiously whispered his plan into Xiong Wen'an's ear. His words were laced with intrigue, and upon hearing them, Xiong Wen'an wore a mischievous grin, seemingly very pleased with Maple Leaf's scheme.
As Maple Leaf finished speaking, Xiong Wen'an suddenly raised his voice in a provocative tone and shouted towards Wei Dong, filled with disdain and challenge: "Hey! Fat pig! You're so tough; how about taking us on three against one? This way the match can move along faster! Do you dare?"
The hall erupted into a rustle due to Xiong Wen'an's loud shout, as numerous Summoners and spectators were taken aback by this sudden challenge. Upon hearing those words, Wei Dong's body stiffened slightly before he turned to face Xiong Wen'an, a flicker of disdain and provocation flashing in his eyes; at that moment, his aura seemed even more imposing.
As Xiong Wen'an's contemptible challenge echoed throughout the hall, the atmosphere became heated and tense. Many people in the audience stood up, their faces revealing unmistakable outrage and disdain. The hall was soon filled with murmurs of disgust and angry shouts of condemnation as spectators pointed fingers at Xiong Wen'an; some even threw handkerchiefs at him as a symbol of their strong contempt for his actions.
The voice of God Tone cut through the tense atmosphere like lightning: "Hey! Isn't this too outrageous? Referee! Is this kind of behavior allowed?" His words sparked an even louder wave of support as applause began to rise from the audience in favor of God Tone's righteous outcry.
Sunan was even more furious; his roar echoed through the hall, causing some spectators' expressions to turn angry: "What the hell are you talking about?!" His words ignited a chorus of agreement from those around him, reflecting the collective resentment towards such unfair behavior.
At this moment, the atmosphere in the hall resembled a powder keg ready to explode; everyone expressed their strongest opposition to Xiong Wen'an and Boyev's shameless proposal. Many spectators stood up to accuse them of undermining Noxus's dignity; some high-ranking officials showed anger on their faces as they debated whether these individuals should be expelled from the assembly immediately.
Amidst this chorus of disdain and condemnation, chaos in the hall reached its peak as all eyes focused on Xiong Wen'an and Boyev at the center; their actions were seen as the greatest insult to Noxus. The entire incident had transformed from an ordinary confrontation into a public trial of respect for Noxus's Summoner team.
Polnareff stood in the center of the tense venue, facing the pressure coming from all directions. He turned to Swen for guidance. Swen sat high on a platform, his sharp gaze sweeping over the chaotic scene below, his expression revealing a hint of humor and anticipation. On the platform, he seemed somewhat entertained by the chaos before him, while internally weighing the profound significance of this confrontation.
A smile gradually appeared on Swen's face. Although this duel arose from Boyev's provocation, it unexpectedly provided an excellent opportunity to showcase Wei Dong's abilities. He spoke softly to Polnareff, his voice loud enough to penetrate the noise of the hall: "Polnareff, there are no rules stating it must be one-on-one. If Wei Dong agrees, let him decide how to respond."
Then he turned to Wei Dong, his face showing expectation: "Wei Dong, what do you think? Are you willing to accept this challenge?"
The noise in the hall instantly diminished, and all eyes focused on Wei Dong, awaiting his decision. This was not only a test of Wei Dong's abilities but also a public assessment of his leadership. The atmosphere among the crowd was filled with anticipation and skepticism, as everyone wanted to see how the renowned Wei Dong would respond to this sudden challenge.
