The announcement continued to ring throughout the room where all the gathered strategists from the other groups were by what seemed to be from the leader of the Bair fighters.
(BL) "All of you don't need to know us on a first name basis, though you may know the name of the person who brought you here, I myself will never give my name to the likes of you. Just refer to me as Bair's leader. Behind me are B2, B3, B4, and B5 they are ranked from the most skilled to the least skilled." Bair's leader said to everyone.
Baron noticed something that had struck him as odd, every one of the Bair fighters were wearing a mask, but the ones that they had on were all different. He had noticed it on Biao Gong when he went to ask for the pact of non aggression, but it seems like this was a recurring theme for them. One other thing was that Bair's leader had revealed that Biao Gong was the least skilled out of all the Bair fighters.
(BL) "Anyway, the reason why we have gathered you all here is due to us not being challenged enough with the lack of talent in this tournament so we will be doing a few experiments with all of you. Don't worry, it's nothing humiliating, you will be here to witness just how powerful we are though table top strategies."
At this point, everyone except their leader made their way to the group they had gathered and picked up whoever interested them. In Biao Gong's group was Baron, William Bridges, and one more fellow by the name of commander Lyon. This was an interesting dynamic since William Bridges was the person that Baron's group was trying to actively kick out of the Chinese community. Both of them knew this fact.
(BG) "Well, let's get going shall we? You are lucky that I have chosen the 3 of you since I am the most generous out of all the others." Biao Gong said tooting his own horn.
(BM) "Thank you elder, might I ask why you have chosen us in particular?" Baron asked.
(BG) "Yes, well. I'm sure you know how I was introduced as being one of the weakest out of the Bair fighters, right? I picked you and William over there as well as Lyon who no one wanted. Hahaha." He said with no remorse.
(CL) "What! Why does no one want me? I can understand it if I was compared to William, but who is this noobie that hasn't made a name for himself yet?" Lyon was close to exploding.
(BG) "Calm down boy, these two are more skilled than you can even imagine. You may be slightly better than William now, but you should know that these two are much younger than you are yet have much more prospects in their future. You have peaked, and once that has happened the only place you can go is down."
(WB) "Thank you elder."
(BG) "Come with me, let us talk before we have to do my assigned task."
The 3 of them followed Biao Gong into a grand room where there was a table in the center. They took a seat and curiosity got the best of him and William Bridges just had to ask a question.
(WB) "How did you guys manage to repel the 7 alliance coalition sent to crush you? I was in there yet I did not see anything that could be considered special!"
(BM) "I was wondering that as well. That stunt you Bair fighters pulled off was quite impressive."
(BG) "Surprised are you? Well, I don't blame you. Let me tell you something that will send a shock to the deepest core of your being. We may be a group of 5, but you should know that the only moves that we have done in this tournament is done by our leader. Me and the other 3 were just fooling around somewhere else when the coalition pounced upon our land."
(BM) "What? Then doesn't that mean that everything the Bair fighters have accomplished in this tournament has been done by one person?"
(BG) "You got it right. Don't get me wrong, the 4 under him are superior than even some of the best in this community, but we aren't really needed since no one here is even worth a piss to our leader."
(CL) "Im-impossible, someone of that calibre is unheard of in this community. Who even is he? Is he a foreigner or is he Chinese?"
(BG) "Spoiler. I can't tell you that."
(BM) "How about we change the subject, why have you gathered so many strategists here?"
(BG) "It is for you to spread the word of how powerful we are once this entire tournament is over. Remember what I said to you when I first visited your territory? That everyone here was nothing more than toys for us to fool around with? Well, now that we have made a nonaggression pact with everyone, we will do just that. Toy with everyone to our fullest content."
(BM) "How will you do that?"
(BG) "We will give up half of our forces to egg on those of you who are deemed the weakest and make them go to war with someone that is superior in every way to them. Don't you just love a good underdog story? Hahaha."
(BM) "So that's how it is. No wonder."
(BG) "Consider yourselves lucky, Baron. Your group is the weakest out of everyone remaining. That means you guys get the most reinforcements. Though, just because you guys get more reinforcements, victory is still not guaranteed. The end result is still up to you to figure out."
(BM) "Do you guys enjoy this type of entertainment?"
(BG) "It's not entertainment that we are after, it's something else."
(BM) "What do you plan on doing after only one group is left to oppose you?"
(BG) "Ah, ah, ah, no spoilers." He said laughing wickedly to himself.
