José, the governor of Justine's court, came out with a long wait, and made his first appearance at the Golden Banquet tonight, leading his guards to the two duelists under the silent gaze of the guests.

Anthony and David looked at Jose together and waited for him to announce the results. Jose, on behalf of his family, Lord Su Yu, naturally has to show a very strong momentum. He cleared his throat and said, "Your Excellency, I'm very sorry that Lord Su Yu is inconvenient to be a witness to the duel between the two tonight. Euphemistically expressed the meaning that Su Yu was not at the Golden Banquet tonight.

The guests couldn't help but whisper, although everyone guessed that Lord Su Yu was not in the Golden Castle, but it was one thing to guess, and it was another thing to be confirmed. Everyone couldn't help but wonder in their hearts, and they were even more uncertain: what is the relationship between the Ranger upstart and Lord Su Yu and Justin? If there was a covenant, Lord Su Yu did not personally come forward to cheer for him. And if he didn't hook up at all in private, how could he come out of the lounge upstairs of the banquet hall?

David had expected this to be the result, so he was not surprised, and asked Anthony with a smile: "Since Lord Su Yu is not here, then the classical duel?"

"A classical duel, of course. Without hesitation, Anthony immediately agreed.

On the surface, he seems to be calm and happy, as if David Duran is a hero, but inside, Anthony is actually very annoyed.

Anthony is reluctant to engage in a classical duel with an Acropolis boy like David Duran. But if it's a direct energy duel, it's even worse. Anthony was certainly able to beat David, there's no doubt about that. The energy barrier is the first law of superpowers, David Duran is still at level seven, and Anthony, who has the rules of level eight, will be easy to defeat him in a duel, but the trouble is in this "easy as hand".

The question is not whether Anthony can beat David, but whether he can beat David here.

David Duran's seventh level is not the seventh level of the unlucky Giovanni, the seventh level condensed by the ultimate potential, the foundation is complete, and the most orthodox education of the House of Thousands of Generations is destined to be difficult for any seventh level to be his opponent. Including Danyang, who is known as the peak of the seventh level, if he wants to win a slight advantage or even a tie with him, he has to take a lot of risks and go through a hard fight.

If Anthony wants to defeat David, he can only use the eighth-level rules just like when he defeated Danyang in the Spaceship Grand Duel Arena. But this is not an empty and uninhabited space universe, and there are too many discerning people at the golden banquet. Anthony doesn't even have to guess, as long as he beats David Duran here today, and he doesn't even wait for dawn, his true identity will be revealed. And once he is exposed, Gu Hanhan's secret can no longer be hidden.

The way to cover it up is not completely impossible, that is, Anthony's previous construction yì, let Su Yu be a duel witness. Su Yu, as an eighth-level superpower, was shrouded in an energy field, and he could cover up the truth of the duel with a light yì. Even with Anthony and Su Yu joining forces, it is not difficult to hide David Duran who is in the game.

However, just like Anthony calculated a thousand things, but failed to calculate that Su Yu would find himself to be angry as soon as he came out, now Anthony has made thousands of calculations, but he didn't expect Su Yu to retreat from the battle, and he couldn't come out, and he couldn't even call out.

Is this still the arrogant and willful Lord Su Yu who does whatever he wants, or is it the arrogant and willful Lord Su Yu who does whatever he wants should be like this?

When Lord Criticus, who had never anticipated the enemy's first opportunity, encountered this dilemma, he had no choice but to curse in his heart: "This bear child!", so he had no choice but to agree to the classical duel.

- It's just a classical duel, and after practicing for months, he doesn't necessarily have to lose!

David laughed when he heard that Anthony agreed to a classical duel. He said, "Since you don't need an energy field, there is no need to ask the Sect Master of the Temple or the executive committee of the association to be a witness. You and I are dueling, and it's just right to ask Hanhan to be a witness. I wonder what you think?"

This is exactly what Anthony wanted, Su Yu's retreat is a foregone conclusion, and Gu Hanhan's ability to come forward is also an unsatisfactory means of making up for it. He was wondering if David Duran would still be as calm as he was when he won the duel and lost Gu Hanhan.

Seeing that the two of them were going to 'see the same thing as the heroes', Jose hurriedly said, "I'm afraid it's not convenient for Miss Gu to be a duel witness now." ”

As soon as Miss Gu heard that the two of them were going to duel just now, she was so frightened that she almost fainted. The doctor gave me a calming drug, and it was just a little better. Now she has been invited to rest in the castle. Mr. Manager didn't dare to look at Anthony, so he said worriedly, "The sword and gun have no eyes, so I don't want to ask Miss Gu to come out, so as not to be frightened again." ”

David listened to what the manager said sincerely, and was caught off guard, and finally hardened his heart and became soft again, vaguely regretting that he and Gu Hanhan came to the golden banquet today, let alone asking her to be a witness to witness the duel between himself and the ranger. Although she was forced by the ranger to have no way out but to duel, it was definitely not his willingness to inflict the storm on Gu Hanhan's body. She should be a protected woman, not a man who should face any blows and pressures at any time, and she should be allowed to avoid this embarrassing scene.

Anthony didn't believe it at all: Gu Hanhan would be frightened and faint? This is simply impossible! Unless she is knocked out, she has never been scared and fainted!

She was entangled by your Lord Su Yu and couldn't drag herself on, right?

Anthony glanced at Jose's manager, knowing what was going on, but he couldn't tell it.

The unlucky manager was seen by Anthony at a glance, and his legs and stomach were cold, but for the sake of the face of his family, he couldn't slip out of the ground, so he could only hold on, and said with a dry smile: "The two Excellencies are both reputable, and they must not deliberately violate the rules in the duel." I don't think this witness must be Miss Hanhan. There are so many His Majesty at today's banquet, and there is no shortage of highly respected people, such as His Majesty the Emperor of Ogra, and of course, our Mr. Prime Minister of Justin, in my opinion, any one of them can be this witness for the two Your Excellency, haha......"

Emperor Seiffert XI, who had been watching the bustle on the sidelines, was very willing to cheer for Mr. Steward, and at this time he immediately said: "I am willing to bear witness for the two of you." ”

The guests gave way one after another, looking at Emperor Ogra, who had come forward bravely, these professional politicians were born with a lot of thoughts, and they all felt that today's duel was complicated, far more than two eighth-level potential people fighting for jealousy. A gloom swept over their hearts, making them shudder. For a moment, the vast banquet hall was silent, and no one spoke. Seifert XI's laughter thus stood out even louder,

Anthony rolled his eyes. "Are you the current Emperor of Ogra?" he asked.

Seiffert XI held his head high and his bearing was calm. He said: "The people elected me Emperor of Ogra. ”

Anthony was stunned and couldn't help but look at the emperor carefully. Seiffert XI was a man he had never seen before. Of course, he knew about the Seifert family, which was the long-standing Elector family of Ogra, with great international and domestic influence. He was acquainted with some of the family's high-ranking dignitaries, all of whom had reverently bowed down at his feet in exchange for higher status and greater power, and even an old man surnamed Seifert had been officially accepted into his family as an attendant, serving as his political advisor until his death. But Seiffert XI was a man he did not know at all.

Like all the great suzerains, it was impossible for him to know all the young people of the vassal family, let alone the political zhì family outside of the sect like the Seifert family, which had never been truly accepted. And Seifert's own trajectory has no overlap with Antony's experience in the world of Agra.

When Antony chose to enter the world at Augala, the eleventh, as an ordinary third-generation descendant of the Seifert family, was still one of the inconspicuous among the countless sons and daughters of the capital's Shaking Star, and mixed with young people of the same age as him to graduate from such majors as philosophy, history, and literature and art at the Imperial University. While Anthony was dying on the front, Seifert XI graduated from university and joined the Imperial Government as an assistant clerk to Kwan Rong, and then worked his way through the central government to train his qualifications. There is no opportunity to deal with each other.

And when Antony defeated Perthis and returned to the Shaking Star, Seifert XI was finally promoted to a third-class civil official with the help of his family, officially ranking as an official of the empire, and had the opportunity to deal with military attachés. But at this time, Anthony had already broken through the eighth level and ended his accession to the WTO, and as a third-class civil official, he had no chance to let him know unless he was the secretary of Emperor Kagula's side. A few years later, Seifert XI was finally transferred from the government to the court, but there was a thunderbolt on a sunny day, and Kagura the Great died.

After that, the top government of Ogra was in turmoil and bloodshed. Caesar lost interest in the Emperor, let alone the secretaries around him. In those days, only the visits of the local governor or the commander of the fleet were occasionally permitted. Seiffert XI went to the frontier and had just made himself governor when the great war between Mars and Ogra broke out.

Seifert XI shined in this war because of the infiltration of the government of the Sniper Dark Temple, and was supported by the people, and was even favored by the attendant Shamanda, who was designated to inherit the title of Elector of the Seifert family and was subsequently elected emperor, but Caesar disappeared and died in this war.

It's a sad story.

Anthony looked at the emperor, this man was only in his forties, and he was still very young for the emperor. His angular features and resolute gaze all indicate that he is ambitious and likable. Anthony felt very sorry for this, this man should have let him be seen by himself three or five years ago.

The Emperor did not know that Antony was turning such a regretful thought, and still asked enthusiastically: "Your Excellency David, Your Excellency Antony, are you willing to trust the reputation of Emperor Ogla?"

David Duran smiled: "I trust. ”

Anthony turned his head, gave David a meaningful look, and then said, "I trust." ”

The guests stepped back, leaving for a kendo for a classical duel. Mr. Jose, the head manager, who had been forced to block the gun tonight, quickly took the opportunity to slip away. The castle guard brought the sword, and the two were identical, and Anthony unbuttoned it, tossed the gown, picked up one of them, and tried to shake it twice before pressing the tip of the sword against David. On the other side, David Duran also took off his coat and only wore his shirt, picked up a long sword, and made contact with Anthony's sword.

With just this one starting action, David's temperament has completely changed, as dazzling as a sword out of its sheath. It was so amazing that even the princes and nobles who had been immersed in court etiquette since birth had never seen it. Many princes and princesses exclaimed in surprise on the spot, infatuated with the lost soul.

Seiffert XI stood at the point where the tips of his swords met, and his voice echoed from the dome of the ballroom.

"The God of the Universe is above, I, Seiffer XI, in the name of Emperor Ogra, witness here, the duel begins!"

The cold light flickered, and Anthony's long sword was quickly handed over, stabbing at David first.
