Chapter 171 The Victors Write History
"Based on Tianrong's long history of five thousand years, Liuyuan Island has been part of Tianrong's territory since ancient times."
"And your country, in history, has repeatedly served as a vassal state of Tianrong, paying homage and tribute to the ancient Tianrong."
"This is evidenced not only by written records, but also by countless cultural relics and historical sites."
At this point, Qin Tianyi paused, his gaze fixed intently on the ambassador of Country P.
"Now, your country has suddenly come up with such a claim, asserting that Liuyuan Island belongs to Country P."
"What historical basis does your country's claim have? And does it enjoy widespread recognition and support from the international community?"
Faced with Qin Tianyi's barrage of questions, the P country ambassador's expression turned somewhat unpleasant.
He clearly hadn't expected Qin Tianyi to be so confrontational, exposing his lies one by one.
For a moment, he was speechless.
The P country ambassador quickly regained his composure.
He sneered and said, "Mr. Qin, history is always written by the victors."
“Our country, P, also has its own historical records, and the rule of the international community is to respect the status quo rather than dwell on the past.”

At this moment, a tense moment also arrived at People's Square.
The music carried a touch of antiquity and mystery, as if transporting the audience to an ancient and distant martial arts world.
Her performance began with a traditional Southern Fist routine.
Her movements were powerful and vigorous; every punch and kick was accompanied by the sound of wind, and one could clearly feel the explosive power contained within her body.
Her gaze was sharp and piercing, revealing a calm confidence. Every movement she made was precise and powerful, showcasing the beauty of traditional martial arts.
The audience was immediately drawn to her presence, and the atmosphere at the scene was instantly ignited.
Wow, her movements are amazing!
"Is this martial arts? It's so cool! I want to learn it too!"
In the audience, the little boy clapped his hands excitedly, his eyes wide open, and kept asking his mother next to him for confirmation.
Immediately afterwards, Jiang Songchu's movements became lighter and more agile.
Her figure moved across the stage with the fluidity of flowing clouds and water, showcasing an exquisite set of Baguazhang (Eight Trigrams Palm).
Her steps were light yet swift, and her body displayed a perfect combination of elegance and power as she spun.
The essence of Baguazhang lies in "walking and turning" and "changing," and Jiang Songchu's movements perfectly exemplify this.
Her palm techniques are unpredictable, sometimes like the wind brushing the water's surface, sometimes like lightning and thunder, fully demonstrating the agility and variability of Baguazhang.
A young competitor exclaimed in surprise, "Her movements are so fluid! I was amazed when I watched her videos before, but I didn't expect her to be even more impressive live!"
Then, Jiang Songchu drew the long sword from his waist, its blade flashing and exuding a chilling aura.
The longsword in her hand was like a nimble silver snake, her swordsmanship sharp and precise.
Her sword dance incorporates the essence of ancient martial arts, with each sword move carrying an ancient and mysterious aura.
Wherever the sword light touched, it seemed as if even the air itself was being torn apart. The audience was deeply captivated by her sword dance, their eyes glued to her.
Her swordsmanship not only possesses the power and ferocity of traditional martial arts, but also incorporates the agility of women, showcasing a unique aesthetic.
Finally, Jiang Songchu sheathed his sword, crouched slightly, and then leaped up, performing a difficult backflip and landing steadily. His movements were clean and swift, without any hesitation.
The audience erupted in thunderous applause and cheers that lasted for a long time.

Embassy of Country P in Tianrong
Upon hearing such shameless words, Qin Tianyi's eyes instantly turned sharp as knives, and he said coldly.
"Mr. Ambassador, respecting the status quo presupposes respecting the facts."
"The ownership of Liuyuan Island has never been a fact that can be arbitrarily altered."
“We at Tianrong have sufficient historical evidence and international law to prove this point.”
"We hope that Country P will not act unilaterally, otherwise it will bear the consequences."
The P country ambassador's face turned ugly; he clearly hadn't expected Qin Tianyi to be so tough.
He tried to ease the tension, saying, "Mr. Qin, we are sitting here today to resolve this peacefully."
“Our country P has always respected international law and the norms of international relations, and we hope that Tianrong can resolve the dispute peacefully.”
Qin Tianyi sneered, his tone laced with sarcasm: "Resolve the issue peacefully?"
"Mr. Ambassador, is the threat your country, P, made to Tianrong at the international conference what you call 'peace'?"
"Is your official deployment on Liuyuan Island also considered 'respect for international law'?"
The P country ambassador's face grew increasingly grim. He tried to refute, but Qin Tianyi had already gained the upper hand.
Qin Tianyi continued, "Mr. Ambassador, Tianrong has always advocated for peace, but we will never tolerate any form of provocation."
"We hope that Country P can clearly recognize this point; otherwise, we, Tianrong, will defend our sovereignty at all costs."
The atmosphere in the reception room grew increasingly tense.
The clerks behind Qin Tianyi also stood up, ready to deal with any emergencies.
The P country ambassador's expression was uncertain; he clearly realized that today's negotiations would not end easily.
He finally relented, his tone tinged with helplessness.
"Mr. Qin, our country P has always hoped to maintain friendly relations with Tianrong."
"We are willing to discuss the issue of Liuyuan Island further, but we hope that Tianrong can also exercise restraint."
Qin Tianyi smiled slightly, his eyes resolute.
“Mr. Ambassador, Tianrong has always maintained restraint, but restraint is not the same as weakness.”
"We hope that Country P can show sincerity instead of continuing this meaningless dispute."
The ambassador of Country P was silent for a moment, then finally nodded: "Okay, we will re-examine the relevant issues and give a reply as soon as possible."
Qin Tianyi stood up, his tone carrying a hint of warning: "I hope P Country understands that Tianrong's patience is limited."
As Qin Tianyi walked out of the embassy, his heart remained heavy.
He looked up at the sky and silently vowed to fight for a just outcome for Tianrong.
"Tianrong's dignity is inviolable, and Liuyuan Island's sovereignty is beyond question."
"If I had been more decisive back then, perhaps Tianrong's situation wouldn't be so passive."
"But now, all I can do is try my best to fight for a better future for Tianrong."

Back to People's Square.
Jiang Songchu's perfect performance came to an end, and the judges on the panel nodded in approval.
Master Li, a senior martial arts master, spoke first: "Jiang Songchu's performance left a deep impression on me."
"Her ancient martial arts skills are solid, and her movements are both strong and graceful. Her sword dance is particularly outstanding. Every sword move is precise and powerful, demonstrating a very high level of martial arts prowess."
