In the spacious hall, the grand banquet continued as usual.
Looking at the singing and dancing in the distance, Adil quietly sat where he was, regaining his composure.
In the distance, watching the conflict between Adil and Canador, the nobles could not help but frown. While their feelings of disgust toward Canador grew, they could not help but look down on Adil.
In this world, Knights were particular about honor and dignity.
If it were any other Knight who was humiliated like this by their opponent, they would definitely jump up and fight it out with the other party no matter what.
Time gradually passed, and when the sky gradually darkened, the banquet was about to come to an end.
The atmosphere of the banquet was very enthusiastic. Up until now, the number of nobles in the surroundings had not decreased, but had instead increased.
They were nobles who lived in the outer city. Perhaps due to some matters, their journey had been delayed, and so they only made it to the latter half of the banquet.
Looking at the exciting banquet, just as Adil thought that the banquet was about to come to an end, something unexpected happened.
"Everyone!" A hoarse and low voice rang out in the surroundings. It was so loud that everyone in the hall could hear it.
Hearing the voice, everyone could not help but look toward the stage in front of them. They saw a tall figure standing there.
It was Canador, still wearing his loose Knight robe. His face was a little flushed, and he reeked of alcohol. It seemed like he had drunk quite a bit of alcohol.
With a Conferred Knight's physique, no matter how much ordinary alcohol he drank, it would be impossible for him to get drunk. However, it still had some effect, making him even more excited.
He glared at the many nobles below, and his voice was as loud as a bronze bell, "This banquet is held for Knights. How can we not have a Knight's performance?
"I suggest that I go up with another Knight and perform for everyone. How about that?"
His face was flushed red, and he spoke loudly, sounding a little excited.
Hearing his words, the surroundings fell silent for a moment. Then, faint sounds of cheering could be heard.
Among the cheering sounds, there were nobles who really wanted to watch the performance, as well as nobles from the military.
They were all from the military, and even though they looked down on Canador's character, they would not go so far as to undermine him at such an important occasion.
As for the hostile forces of the military, they were also silent.
Kannado had just become the champion of the knighthood competition and was in the limelight. It wasn't a good time for him to get into trouble.
Moreover, it was still fine to summon other military knights. Even if they were enemies, they would at least abide by the rules. However, the same could not be said for this person. If Fang Xingjian were to infuriate him, he might really jump down to show off his prowess as a Conferred Knight.
After all, even in the military, he was known as the Arrogant Knight.
Putting aside the other party's domineering behavior during this period of time, just the way he addressed him indicated a lot of things.
Being able to make his own people feel that he was arrogant, this knight's temper could be imagined.
"Come, Gacto!"
Seeing the scene below, Kannado became even more arrogant. He looked at Prince Angele, who was standing beside him and looking at Gakido.
"I heard that you're already very unconvinced of me and think that I'm purely relying on my qualifications!"
He looked at Jia Ke Duo with a disdainful smile: "Come! I'll give you the chance now. Do you dare to come on stage? "
"You!!" Below, Jia Ke Duo's face was ashen. Hearing Kannado's provocative words, his entire arm trembled slightly: "Arrogant!"
However, even though he was furious, he still did not show it.
He was only a Heavenly Knight. In the previous competition, he could not even defeat Adil, let alone Kannado.
If he was really provoked to go on stage now, he would probably make a fool of himself again.
"Adil, are you still going to hide behind a woman?"
"Collis, are you afraid too?"
Kendall didn't stop. He looked at Loris and Elena's side and taunted their Chief Knight.
Many of the nobles present could see that Kannado was intentionally targeting them.
In the usual meetings, the few princes and princesses who belonged to Angele would often target the eldest prince. In recent years, they had joined forces to fight against the eldest prince.
And now, this Knight of Kannado wasn't targeting anyone but the three royal descendants. His motive was self-evident.
As expected, no one responded for a long time. No matter if it was Adil or Collis, despite their ugly expressions, they also did not move. They were stopped by their Lord.
"Kannado …" Below, looking at Kannado, Adil's expression was still calm. He stood beside Alina and muttered in his heart.
"Tsk, three cowards." Seeing that Adil and the other two did not respond, Kannado curled his lips. He then turned around and looked at a corner of the banquet.
"Then, Your Highness Clades, what about you?"
His cold and mocking tone caused the entire place to fall into silence. Only Kendall's voice could be heard.
"I've heard that the Guno Empire's battle techniques are very interesting. I've always wanted to see it …"
He looked at Clades and lightly laughed: "I wonder if Your Highness will give me this chance today?"
"Or is it that the so-called Prince of the Guno Empire is actually a coward who does not dare to accept the challenge?"
Just as he finished speaking, everyone's gazes shifted to the young man sitting quietly in the corner.
"There will be a chance."
Looking at the person standing on the platform, Clades silently stood up. His expression was still calm: "As for whether or not he is a coward, you will have to test it yourself."
"Not bad, not bad." Looking at Clades's expression, Kannado was a bit surprised. He then laughed: "Come up!"
Under everyone's gazes, Clades did not hesitate. He raised his sword and walked up the platform.
Standing beside Alina and silently watching this scene, Adil hesitated for a moment. In the end, he did not move.
"Where's your sword?"
Under the gazes of hundreds of people, Clades looked at Clades calmly and said with a frown.
"Heh …" Facing Clades's question, Clades smiled: "Against you, why would I need to use my sword?"
"I will stand right here. If you can injure me, then it is my loss."
"Arrogant!" Clades's eyes became colder. He directly pulled out his sword and attacked his opponent.
The aura on his body surged. At this moment, he used all of his strength. The life seed in his body had been activated, giving him great strength and speed. He fiercely rushed towards Kannado.
"Too slow!" A soft sound rang in his ear.
In the next moment, Clades felt a sharp pain in his chest. An intense pain came from his chest, causing him to subconsciously fly backward and fall onto the ground.
Struggling to get up from the ground, Clades's eyes became colder. He looked at Kannado as if he was looking at a dead man.
"This look is really not something I am used to."
Looking at Clades's appearance, Kannado twisted his neck and then strode forward.
His footsteps were heavy and slow. Every step seemed casual, but in reality, it carried an unstoppable and powerful aura. Coupled with the enormous life energy on his body, it pressed towards Clades who was in front of him.
Under the pressure of this power, Clades felt his entire body turn cold. Not only could he not stand steadily, even the hand that was holding onto the sword was trembling slightly. It was no longer as firm and decisive as before.
No matter what he thought in his heart, no matter what his identity was. Just based on the current situation, the difference in strength between the two parties was too great.
The difference between a Grand Knight and a Conferred Knight was so great that it made one feel despair. No matter how hard Clades worked, he would not be a match for Kannado.
Below the stage, the nobles looked at this scene in Silence. They had no intention of stopping Clades, and many of them even had smiles of schadenfreude on their faces.
Only Prince Dillard, who was hosting the banquet, reacted. He stood at the side and looked at Kannado with a frown, as if he wanted to stop Clades. However, in the end, he did not do anything.
In the Malan Empire, Clades, the Son of Destiny, could only rely on himself.
At this moment, many thoughts flashed through Clades' mind. In the end, all of them turned into a sword and slashed towards Kannado.
Streams of blue grew on the spot, gradually enveloping the surroundings. Streams of light blue sword Qis kept on reverberating in the surroundings. In the end, they formed the core of the sword and slashed towards Kannado.
Silver Splendor!
The familiar secret skill of life exploded in front of Kannado. Although the nature of the Battle Qi was different, resulting in a different result from what Adil had displayed, the terrifying power and killing intent were the same. Kannado could not help but become more serious, and the sword in his hand started to unsheathe.
Bang!
A huge force came at Kannado, accompanied by a crisp sound of collision.
In just an instant, Clades' face was punched again, and he was sent flying.
After being punched by Kannado, his face was bleeding continuously, and the flesh on his face had started to split open. It was obvious that he was badly injured.
"Is this all you want?"
Looking at Clades who was half-squatting on the ground, Kannado's expression was savage, and he kicked him.
Bang!
Another explosion sounded. Before Kannado's eyes, Clades was sent flying by his kick, and he crashed into a pillar.
"Enough!" A voice rang out from behind.
It was Prince Dillard, and he was frowning as he looked at Kannado. "Do you want to beat him to death?"
"Beat him to death? No, no, no, of course not. " Hearing the voice, Kannado turned around and smiled, "But as a senior, it shouldn't be a problem for me to teach him a lesson, right?"
Bang!
As he spoke, he stomped his foot down hard, directly on Clades' stomach.
Drip, drip …
The sound of blood dripping could be heard.
After receiving such a heavy blow from Kannado, Clades was seriously injured, and he only had the last bit of strength left to struggle to get up.
On the stage, seeing his miserable state, some people could not bear to see him like this, but they looked at Kannado who was beside Clades and did not dare to say anything.
Currently, Clades' situation was very dangerous.
Just like what Kannado said, he would not kill him, but he would not be able to avoid a round of torture. In fact, if Kannado made a slight move, he would be crippled for the rest of his life.
However, under the huge pressure, Clades' potential was being displayed, and he tried his best to break free from this situation.
On his body, a purple color that ordinary people could not see was slowly rising, burning like a flame. With his body as the center, it continued to spread and gradually affected the surroundings.
At this moment, Adil, who was standing beside Eileen, had a strange look in his eyes.
"This feeling …"
He raised his head, looked at Clades who was once again punched by Kannado, and muttered to himself.
"Be obedient and lie down!!" A strange roar continued to ring out.
On the stage, Clades struggled to kneel there, and in front of him, Kannado's face was ferocious and a fist was smashing towards him.
Bang!
A sound rang out.
Kannador was taken aback when he felt the tactile sensation from the strike. His excitement from drinking couldn't help but cool down a little.
And in front of him, a thin figure had appeared out of nowhere.
"Let's stop here."
