Leng Xiaojun: "I’m officially apologizing to you face-to-face for the Wang Xiaomin incident! Even if you won’t accept it!"
Yue Feng, expressionless: "If saying sorry worked, what would we need the police for? It’s already happened, see you in the arena, no need for more talk!"
"You’re acting all high and mighty, what’s the big deal!"
Hearing Yue Feng’s outright rejection, a young guy behind Leng Xiaojun instantly flared up, pointing his finger at Yue Feng’s nose, ready to start cursing.
Yue Feng completely ignored this clown-like lackey, his sharp gaze fixed on Leng Xiaojun: "Tell your team mbers to stop pointing fingers at , one day I’ll snap and break their fingers, and you’ll have nowhere to complain!"
Besides, whether your team or two teams make it to the Club Union Cup this ti, the result will be the sa. As long as I’m here, you Tianyuan will always be second!
Lastly, go back and tell your master Deng Gang that this year’s King of Kings Master Tournant will be the day he ets his downfall! I will challenge and defeat him, to set things right for my team!"
Leng Xiaojun had t Yue Feng many tis before, but it was the first ti he’d seen such aggressive words from Yue Feng,
even though his voice wasn’t loud and his tone wasn’t harsh, it sohow felt incredibly forceful, as if what he said would happen the next mont, every word brimming with absolute confidence.
"Fine, I’ll convey your ssage to my master! Hope you qualify for the Master Tournant! No need to talk further, see you in the competition arena! Let’s go!"
With that, Leng Xiaojun led his group around to the side of the road, making way for Yue Feng, and quickly departed.
Wang Zhen: "Damn, look how smug they are! Acting as if they’re invincible! Whether it’s Team One or Team Two, they’ve lost to us several tis already, defeated generals aren’t worth boasting about!"
Xue Kai: "Feng was so cool just now, like a scene from Shanghai Beach with Xu Wenqiang!"
Yue Feng waved his hand: "Don’t get cocky, take the stuff back to the car, and get the competition rods out. After the opening ceremony, there will be a rod inspection, so take the opportunity to get them checked."
"Okay, sure!" Wang Zhen scratched his head and soon, he and Xue Kai were carrying the competition materials to the car.
With less than an hour to go until the opening ceremony, everyone was chatting in the waiting area when Yue Feng’s phone suddenly rang.
A Beijing number beginning with 010 was calling, making Yue Feng frown slightly.
He hadn’t saved the number, it seed like a landline. Who could it be?
With curiosity, Yue Feng answered the call.
"Hello, who are you looking for?"
"Is this Yue Feng, Mr. Yue? I am Xiao Li, from the outreach team of the Club League Preparatory Office. We just saw backstage that your club has already arrived at the Fishing Base and collected the competition materials, correct?"
"Yeah! That’s right, is there a problem?"
"There is indeed sothing we forgot to notify!
Given our club’s top overall performance in the division, during the upcoming opening ceremony, there will be a declaration by an athlete representative!
The organizing committee has decided to give this opportunity to you!
The reason I’m calling is to ask you to prepare a brief declaration and a short speech!"
"You want to declare on stage?" Yue Feng sharply caught the key phrase in the ssage.
"Yes, I have the usual declaration script here, which you can follow when you go on stage. If you want to say a few words of your own afterward, you can, but keep it short and aligned with the general direction!"
"Okay, I got it! Prepare the declaration script for , and I’ll prepare the extra bits myself! Thanks for the trust from the organizers!"
"Alright, it’s settled then!"
...
Hanging up the phone, the team mbers looked at Yue Feng with bright eyes.
"Not bad, Feng, getting to go on stage as the athlete representative at such a big event!"
"It must be thanks to Hua helping arrange it. Usually, such face-giving opportunities go to either the Hua Clan or Tianyuan mbers, hardly anyone else gets a chance!"
Yue Feng shrugged: "Whatever the case, this ti I got the stage opportunity! So I’ll just say a few words then!"
Hearing this, Niu Ben reminded: "Take it easy, you know, don’t go off-script during the opening ceremony declaration, it might cause issues!"
Yue Feng shook his head with a smile: "Don’t worry, I know my limits!"
The group waited a bit longer, then the lively athlete’s march began blaring over the loudspeakers at the opening ceremony venue. Following the announced schedule, all registered club mbers needed to gather below the podium as the ceremony began.
The opening ceremonies of these fishing competitions vary in level, with slight differences according to the event, but they’re mostly the sa.
Relevant local leaders would give speeches, committee leaders would speak, followed by a vow from the head referee, and finally, the athlete representative would co on stage.
The previous procedures were mostly official jargon, nothing much to say, and soon it was the athlete’s oath-taking segnt, and the host ntioned Yue Feng’s na.
"In the divisional competitions, Yuefeng Fishing Club’s comprehensive results ca out ahead by a landslide. Now, let’s welco the recipient of the Fishing King honor, Yue Feng, to the stage for the athlete representative speech! Let’s welco Yue Feng!"
With the host’s invitation, Yue Feng relaxedly strode up to the stage and took the pre-prepared oath script from the host’s hand.
"Respectable leaders at all levels, event preparers, and fellow fishing friends, hello, I’m Fisherman Yue Feng!
It’s a great honor to speak on stage as the athlete representative today. On behalf of all participating athletes, I solemnly swear,
to strictly follow competition rules and comply with related national policies and regulations in the upcoming competition!
We firmly uphold all the regulations of the organizing committee and Chinese Fishing Association, compete civilly, and fish healthily! We’d accept the supervision and guidance of all staff and fellow athletes!"
At this point, Yue Feng paused slightly because the oath script was only this long, just a short declaration.
Scattered applause broke from below and quickly quieted down.
Yue Feng controlled the rhythm of the atmosphere below, paused a little, then continued: "The oath is complete, I dare to add a few more words!
The sport of fishing has developed to this point; organizing this competition, the club league organizing the fishing association leaders, and the related staff of the Fishing Tackle Alliance have all made great efforts!
I hope all club athlete teams respect the staff’s efforts and truly enjoy the fun of competitive sports and compete civilly during the competition.
Don’t bring those distractions and misconduct from previous competitive gas into this competition!
That’s the end of my speech, thank you, everyone!"
These few words were sowhat unrelated to the oath, but since Yue Feng ntioned the Fishing Tackle Alliance,
it’s well known that he is one of the founding mbers of the Fishing Tackle Alliance and a permanent council mber, so from that standpoint, it makes sense.
This competition involves club teams, who naturally understood the implications of Yue Feng’s words, and soon so of the smaller teams began clapping again, albeit lightly.
