Chapter 495 "Du Wei's Decision"
Prince Charlie's words were resolute and decisive. His young face was filled with a cold arrogance. This caused the two Knight's to become stunned. Then, the black-faced Stegel could not help but shout: "You … …"
"Shut up, Stegel!" Pope Paul XVI immediately stopped this reckless subordinate. He looked deeply at Prince Charlie and said: "Your Highness, it was my men who were rude. Please believe me, the Church of Light has absolutely no intention of looking down on the royal family and the nobles. "
Stegel's black-faced face turned purple but he did not dare to say anything. He could only clench his teeth and sit back down. However, Pope ordered the two of them to immediately apologize to Prince Charlie. The two of them had no choice but to comply.
Pope looked at the young Prince Charlie with vigilance in his heart.
For Prince Charlie to have such eloquence and knowledge at such a young age was indeed surprising. However, what made Pope even more unhappy was the fact that this young prince did not seem to have the slightest respect for the Shrines! In fact, there was even a faint trace of … … hostility!
One must know that this Prince Charlie is someone who everyone knows has a 90% chance of inheriting the throne in the future! An Emperor who has been hostile to the Church since young … … for the Shrines, this is probably not a good thing!
Although this was what he thought, Pope smiled warmly and said: "Your Highness Charlie, may I ask where my mistake lies?"
Prince Charlie finally revealed a trace of nervousness when faced with this question from the Spiritual Leader of the continent. After all, he was still young. Criticizing the Spiritual Leader of the continent in front of his face made him feel somewhat ill at ease. He took a deep breath and suddenly saw the Duke of the Tulip Family, Du Wei, looking at him with an encouraging smile.
The little fellow immediately calmed down and he slowly said: "Your Majesty, you said that the Knight's status is noble, yes … … but that is only for the commoners! According to tradition, the Knight's allegiance is to the nobles! Or the Empire! To the truly noble nobles, the so-called knights were nothing more than people who were loyal to them. They were just 'retainers'! Not to mention His Majesty the Emperor! To His Majesty, all the Knight's on the continent were only his subjects! They were soldiers or even servants! The Emperor was the true master of this continent! For a master … how could a master be the judge of a fight between servants?! This was simply preposterous! If we really do that, who knows what the history books will record years later! I'm worried that it will become a scandal for the future generations! Therefore, I believe that the Emperor should not be a judge! The only possibility was to appear as a 'bestower'! It was definitely not a judgment! It's even more impossible for him to participate in it!! "
There were almost no flaws in his words. After all, in this world, the hierarchy was extremely strict! This was especially true for the aristocrats, who valued the traditions of the hierarchy more than anything else! Because this was the guarantee of their noble status.
After a few seconds of silence, the Pope smiled at Prince Son and the old emperor: "It seems we have neglected the issue of the dignity of the royal family. Please forget this absurd suggestion. "
"But judging … …" That Steger didn't seem to understand the meaning behind Pope's words.
"Judging?" Du Wei suddenly opened his mouth and lightly said: "What's the point of judging in a duel?! It's not like we're competing in literature or poetry! In a duel between martial artists, swords have no eyes! To live is to win, to die is to lose! What's the point of judging?! "
"Bishop Du Wei's words are unreasonable!" That cunning Randall opened his mouth. Before he criticized Du Wei, he learned to be smart and deliberately called Du Wei a "bishop". Otherwise, he was worried that Du Wei would use the same reason to criticize him as a "commoner reprimanding a noble". One must know, Charlie is a prince, but Du Wei's title isn't low either!!!
If he insists on Du Wei's identity as a "bishop", then he can use his status as the captain of the Church's Knight Regiment to refute Du Wei. This way, the other party won't be able to find fault with his identity.
Randall continued: "Although it is said that swords have no eyes in a duel between martial artists … … .But this is still a competition, not a duel to the death! Do you want every contestant to fight to the death? If that's the case, then I'm afraid the final champion will have to kill countless people! So I think there is still a need for judging. And this judging … … If the emperor can't do it, then we should invite a few famous martial artists to do it! "
Du Wei sneered and suddenly said: "Your excellency, what do you think if we invite the 'Silver Night Sword Saint' Knight Rodriguez to be the judge?"
Randall didn't expect this at all, so he naturally nodded: "Master Rodriguez is a Saint Class expert. I don't think anyone can object to him being the judge … …"
"Humph!" Du Wei looked at Randall like he's looking at an idiot. Laughing mockingly: "So it's like this! Master Randall, if you participate and win the championship, then when Master Rodriguez personally awards you the title of 'World's Number One', would you have the face to accept it?! "
"This … …" Randall immediately realized that he was tricked again.
Even Prince Charlie was looking at the two Knight with pity.
Indeed, if it's Rodriguez … … Would you have the face to accept the title of 'World's Number One'? Or do you think you can beat Rodriguez?!
"There's no need to argue." Prince Son suddenly smiled and looked at the Pope: "Your Majesty, I have a suggestion, what do you think?"
"My child, your idea must be very clever. Please speak." The old Pope once again took advantage of Prince Son's words.
Prince Son didn't seem to care at all as he faintly smiled: "I didn't expect the Shrines to be interested in this tournament. But since the Shrines are willing to participate, then I think it's better to set up four judges. Well, the Knight Association is after all the Knight's organization in the mainland. So the president of the Knight's Association, Delon, can be counted as one of them. "
Everyone nodded. After all, although the Knight's Association has declined, its reputation is still there. Whether or not Delon is a waste, it's still acceptable for him to serve as a judge.
"In addition, I think the Church should also send someone to occupy a spot." Prince Son smiled: "Of course, I'll have to ask Your Majesty Pope to make a decision after you return."
The Pope nodded.
"As for the third spot … … Let's have the royal family send a martial artist as the representative. I would like to invite the chief martial artist of the palace to represent the royal family to show their respect for this tournament. "
This proposal naturally has no problem.
"As for the fourth spot … … Let's have the Empire send a representative! To show the importance of this tournament to the Empire. "
Without a doubt, no one can object to this proposal.
But in terms of candidates … … Prince Son naturally looked at his most trusted candidate: Du Wei!
"Du Wei, this proposal is also something you came up with first. Moreover, you have an illustrious reputation within the Empire. The name of the Duke of the Tulip Family is known throughout the mainland. Not only that, but you also have the military rank of a general. In that case, I'll invite you to be the fourth judge. "
In fact, everyone knew that the person Prince Son trusts the most right now is the Duke of the Tulip Family.
However, Du Wei's move was beyond everyone's expectations!
"Your Highness, I refuse." Du Wei suddenly stood up with a calm expression: "Please forgive me for being unable to accept your order … … I cannot serve as a judge for this tournament."
"… … Why?" Prince Son was also stunned.
"Because … …" Du Wei suddenly smiled: "I have decided to sign up for this tournament! As a participant, for the sake of fairness, I naturally cannot serve as a judge! "
Everyone was stunned!
Randall, who was ridiculed by Du Wei just now, couldn't help but sneer: "Your Excellency, although your name shakes the mainland, you should still be a magician! This … … is a warrior's competition! "
"I know this is a warrior's competition." Du Wei looked at this guy with a smile that isn't a smile. Suddenly, he pulled out a silver Knight badge and waved it in his hand: "In addition to my identity as a magician, I also hold the title of Knight! Respected leader of the Knight! Please know that the person in front of you is a certified Knight of the mainland! A ninth level Knight with absolute authority and legitimacy! "
Everyone looked at the Knight badge in Du Wei's hand and couldn't help but be stunned.
Ninth level? Ninth level Knight?
Du Wei sighed in his heart … … There is absolutely no question about the legitimacy of this thing! This is a Knight level badge personally issued by the president of the Knight of the mainland … … It's just that after dinner last night, that guy Dylon gave it to me … …
"So … …" Prince Son couldn't help but find it funny: "Du Wei, you … …"
"I have decided to participate, Your Highness." Du Wei smiled: "I also want to snatch the title of 'World's Number One' so I can go home and play."
