Numerous netizens expressed their outrage, "The North Federation is simply too shameless."
"I didn't expect them to use such despicable tactics, they are truly fitting of being the world hegemon."
"Seeing this news, I'm actually happier than I am angry because this indicates that the North Federation is somewhat in a panic. They never anticipated Xuan Country's rise to be so swift. Clearly, this plan was made in a hurry without deep consideration."
"That's right, Xuan Country is about to rise, and the North Federation is scared."
The Xuan Country officials also responded to this matter with strong words, condemning the shameless conduct of the North Federation.
Despite the condemnation, Xuan Country was powerless regarding this matter because the North Federation monopolized about eighty to ninety percent of the global energy supply, and Xuan Country was a major importer of energy, consuming a substantial amount of oil daily.
