Encouraged by Yan Fei, Lu Pingping was full of confidence at this moment. She stepped forward and sat in the central chairman's seat. Unlike the high and elevated chairman's seat, the stools for the defeated nations' heads of state were very low. When they sat on the stools, they were precisely two positions lower than Lu Pingping, reflecting the huge disparity between their positions. Behind them sat the other national leaders. Judging solely by the number of participating countries, this surrender ceremony could be considered a standard United Nations meeting, except that there was no secretary-general with any authority.
Lu Pingping sat on the podium, and suddenly the stirring music stopped, freezing the atmosphere of the entire meeting. Everyone knew that this surrender ceremony had officially begun. Although there were no masters of ceremonies, at this level, no one cared about the formalities.
