"This is …"
In the middle of the spacious arena, Adil was stunned at first as he looked at the few extra points of Realm Energy on his body. Then, he reacted, "It can't be such a coincidence, right?"
Before he could think any further, the prince from Guno charged at him again.
After standing for such a long time and being suppressed by Adil, Prince Guno's energy was greatly depleted. He was panting as he ran, and his body was drenched in sweat.
However, during this process, his battle skills kept improving. The speed of his improvement surprised even Adil.
Perhaps it was because very few people had been able to suppress him like this in the past, Prince Guno seemed very excited. Even though he was exhausted, he still charged at Lin Huang without any care, not fearing the possible danger at all.
This kind of fearlessness made Adil speechless. So, he thought to himself, "Whatever, I'll beat him up first!"
Various thoughts flashed through his mind. Without hesitation, he walked forward and slashed down with his sword.
The silver longsword slashed through the air, and faint silver battle energy kept churning within it. The might of the sword caused Prince Guno's pupils to shrink.
Compared to the previous battle, the power of this attack was clearly much stronger. Prince Guno, who was a Great Knight, could not react in time and could only watch as the longsword slashed down.
Bang!!
As he watched, a silver longsword sliced through the air and slashed his giant sword, making a loud sound of metal colliding.
A great force came from his chest, and in an instant, he was suppressed. His entire body kept retreating.
Before he could recover, a figure appeared in front of him again, accompanied by a sharp sword wind.
Roar!!
A low roar was heard.
Looking at the longsword in front of him, Prince Guno let out a low roar. He was like a battle maniac, completely disregarding the huge difference between them as he slashed forward with his sword.
The two longswords collided again, and a figure was sent flying.
"Seems like I was right."
As he stood where he was and looked at Prince Guno, who had collapsed on the ground in the distance, as well as the Realm Energy on his body increasing once again, Adil finally confirmed something in his heart.
This Prince Guno, who looked like a battle maniac, most likely had a large amount of World Energy gathered on him. Even if he wasn't a Child of Destiny, he should be an existence of a lower level.
"What's your name?"
Falling to the ground, Prince Guno struggled to get up from the ground and heard a voice coming from in front of him.
Suppressing his exhaustion, he raised his head and saw Adil standing in front of him.
However, compared to before, Adil now had a smile on his face, and there was a clear sense of admiration and praise in his eyes.
He had never encountered such a situation before. He was stunned for a moment before he reacted and replied seriously, "Clades."
"That is my name."
"Clades …" Standing in front of Clades, Adil muttered this name in a low voice. After that, he opened his mouth with a smile and looked at the other party with a praising gaze, "You are not bad."
"Why did you challenge me?" He looked at the other party and asked.
"If I didn't challenge you now, would you have fought me elsewhere?" Clades raised his head with a disdainful expression. "With my identity, the princess behind you wouldn't have let you accept the challenge."
Hearing this, Adil nodded lightly and said, "Let's stop here this time."
After saying this, Clades quickly got up and looked like he wanted to say something.
However, before he could say anything, Adil, who was in front of him, continued to speak.
"However, in the future, if you have time, you can come and find me anytime."
He looked at Clades with an indifferent expression, but there was a hint of admiration in his eyes. "Your talent is very good. You shouldn't waste it like this."
During the battle, Adil had discovered that although this Prince Guno had a noble identity, he might not be as good as others thought.
There was no doubt about the other party's talent. To be able to reach this stage at this age with his strength, he could be called a genius no matter where he was.
However, in the battle just now, the other party also revealed a lot of problems. Although some of the knights' basic skills were solid, they also made a lot of mistakes. Even the knight's secret skills that they used were very ordinary in Adil's eyes and did not match the other party's identity at all.
From these discoveries, coupled with the fact that the other party was sent to the Malan Empire this time and even came to participate in this competition, Clades, a prince of the Guno Empire, might not be very valued in the Guno Empire.
All kinds of thoughts echoed in his mind, but in front of him, Adil's expression was still as calm as before. After taking a look at Clades, he turned and left.
Behind him, Clades looked at Adil's back in a daze. Thinking about what the other party had said before, he suddenly felt an inexplicable emotion in his heart.
"Finally, someone acknowledges me?" He stood up and looked at the giant sword in his hand. He felt a little complicated, but also a little excited.
"What were you talking about just now?" Just as he returned to Elena's side, a voice rang in his ear.
Looking at Adil in front of her, Alina asked.
"Just chatted with that child for a while." Adil shook his head. "I told him to look for me after the competition."
"This child's talent is not bad. He shouldn't be wasted like this." His expression was calm, and he seemed to admire Clades very much.
"If it's not necessary, it's best not to get too involved with him." Hearing Adil's words, Elena subconsciously frowned. "This Guno prince's identity is a little troublesome. If it's not necessary, try not to get too involved with him."
She looked at Adil and explained, telling him all the information she had gathered during this period of time.
Just as Adil thought, this Guno prince did not have a high position in the Guno royal family, and his identity was even more awkward.
He was indeed a descendant of the Guno royal family, but he was not the son of the current Guno king, but the child of the previous Guno king.
This generation's King Guno was actually Clades' uncle.
The Guno Empire was warlike, and rebellions were frequent. More than ten years ago, the current Guno king suddenly started a rebellion, and overthrew and killed his elder brother, the previous Guno king. That was how he became the new king of the Guno Empire.
But because of this, Clades' identity naturally became very awkward.
He was indeed a descendant of the Guno royal family, and his talent was not bad. But as the child of the previous king, he was naturally not well-liked in the current Guno royal family. It was already not bad that he was able to live until now.
And this time, he came to the Malan Empire as a hostage.
This was not a good job. Although the Guno Empire was strong, its relationship with the surrounding countries was not good. In the Malan Empire, there were many nobles and knights who were hostile to the Guno Empire.
One could imagine the attitude of these people towards Clades, a prince from the Guno Empire.
And although Clades was the youngest son of the Guno king in name, he was actually the child of the previous Guno king. One could imagine that if anything happened to him, the chances of the current Guno king standing up for him were very small, and it was very likely that he would be indifferent.
"What a difficult start." Listening to Elena's narration, Adil's expression was a little strange. "But in this case, I feel that this is definitely a child of destiny."
"With such a difficult identity and background, how could ordinary people live until now if they were not the main character?"
That was what he thought, but on the surface, he shook his head, looking as if he was feeling sorry for this Guno prince.
At the side, seeing his expression, Elena also shook her head. "You are now a famous person. If there is no need, it is best to avoid contact with this prince. It will only cause unnecessary trouble."
"I understand." Adil nodded lightly, and did not reveal any thoughts.
"Oh yes, remember to be careful for the finals in half a month." Sitting there, Elena seemed to have thought of something and suddenly added.
"Is the opponent very strong?" Hearing Elena's words, Adil was a little puzzled.
"Very strong." Elena nodded. "The person that Solar sent, Kannado, who is known as a genius."
"Three years ago, he had already condensed the wings of battle energy, but he did not publicize it."
"So the first prince is trying to show off his muscles this time around?" Adil frowned.
"Most likely." Speaking of this, Elena also felt a little helpless. "To send a Conferred Knight who has condensed the wings of battle energy right off the bat, this is Solar's influence."
"He has the support of the entire military, and he has many Knights under him, including more than one or two Conferred Knights."
"What should I do?" Adil asked.
"It's simple," Alina said. "Fight him in the finals and lose."
"If he wants to show off his muscles, let him." Saying this, she smiled coldly. "The more he shows off, the easier it will be for some people to be apprehensive."
As she spoke, she looked in the direction of the palace, and her eyes shone with some sort of emotion.
"Adil, I know that with your abilities, if you go all out, you might not lose to Kannado."
As if considering Adil's feelings, she comforted him. "However, if you reveal your abilities at this juncture, it will only cause Angele and Loris to be apprehensive. It won't do us any good."
"Don't worry. Although the reward for the second place is much lower than the reward for the first place, it will still be a territory and title."
After a pause, she continued, "I will get rid of my mother's old friends and get them to arrange a good territory for you. It might not be worse than the one in first place."
