Chapter 172: 172, Competitive Duel_1



At the watchtower in front of the military camp.

Fiona put down the monocular telescope she was holding up, turned around and looked at Su Yu with some surprise, “What, Tina wants to duel with me?”

“Yes, seven days from now, at the grand stadium in Orleans City.”

“But Tina is only a fourth-tier, what makes her think she can defeat me?” Fiona’s face was a bit cold, was Tina underestimating her?

“Oh, forgot to tell you.” Su Yu put his hand in front of his chest, speaking very politely, “Just this morning, Tina has successfully advanced, becoming a fifth-tier contender.”

“What?!”

Fiona was shocked, dropping the telescope in her hand, shattering it on the floor.

“Tina has been promoted to fifth-tier? This this ”

Fiona could hardly believe her ears, it had only been a few days and Tina’s strength had already improved by a tier.

Fifth-tier contenders are not mere Chinese cabbages. Including all of the kingdoms and duchies associated with the Goldfinch Empire, with a total population of 130 million, there were only around 1500 contenders above the fifth tier.

Moreover, given Tina’s age and her rate of progress, her advancement to the sixth-tier sanctuary and even the seventh-tier legend was only a matter of time.

No wonder the guardian god had a different view of her, this was terrifying!

However, for Tina’s duel invitation, Fiona was hesitant in accepting it.

Obviously, Tina wanted to establish her dominance by defeating her after her promotion.

However, for Fiona herself, there was no benefit in defeating Tina, she couldn’t possibly reclaim her position as the leader of the legion.

As for losing to Tina, there were obviously no benefits from that either, and there was even the chance she could be ridiculed by her colleagues.

There were no benefits in winning or losing, so why should she accept the duel?

Thinking of this, Fiona flicks her hair, coldly saying, “I have no interest in this duel, please leave!”

She turned around, leaving Su Yu with only her back in view.

Of course, Su Yu knew that Fiona might refuse the duel, who is willing to do something that isn’t beneficial?

But he already had a plan for this.

Su Yu took out a golden magic crystal card from his bag, with a bright white number displayed on it – 200,000.

This money wasn’t Su Yu’s, it was Tina’s.

During the recent attack on Milton’s caravan, Su Yu had received the blueprint for the [Auction House] building as well as some equipment and potions; Tina had taken Milton’s magic crystal card which contained 8,830,000 spiritual energy coins in total.

So this money was put up by Tina.

Su Yu raised the magic crystal card, smiled and said, “If you would like to participate in this duel, this will be your appearance fee.”

Fiona slightly turned around and glanced at the magic crystal card in Su Yu’s hand.

When she saw the number on the magic crystal card, her expression slightly stiffened.

“Ahem.”

Fiona cleared her throat, walked over to Su Yu, took the magic crystal card out of his hand, and asked, “If I accept Tina’s duel request, will I need to hold back during the duel?”

“No need.” Su Yu shook his head, “Tina just advanced, and she is desperately in need of a valuable opponent. Of course, if possible, try to prolong the fight, that would be the most beneficial for her growth.”

“I understand your point.” Fiona put the magic crystal card in her pocket.

Then, she looked at Su Yu like she was looking at her prey, “Is there anything else? Would you like to come to my room?”

Su Yu: ” .”

Seven days later, the grand stadium of Orleans City.

The grand stadium was packed with people today, there was not a single empty seat. The audience, which could accommodate 30,000 spectators, was full.

The audience waved their flags excitedly, eagerly waiting for the duel to start.

This was a duel between the fifth-tier contenders!

Fifth-tier contenders are elite individuals, and the grand stadium hadn’t seen a duel of this level in 20 years.

The once-in-20-years epic duel was now about to take place, how could the audience not cheer and be excited?

While cheering, the audience was also filled with whispers of discussions:

“John, what are the odds today?”

“1.4:2.52, Tina wins are 1.4.”

“That’s not right, didn’t Tina just get promoted? Why are her odds lower than the opponent’s?”

“How should I know? I backed the other side.”

“I bet on Tina, she won against all odds last time, she should be good this time.”

“Look quickly, Tina is here!”

“That really is Tina, go Tina!”

At this moment, Tina, in her golden armor and riding a unicorn, was walking out from the east side gate.

Tina’s golden armor was not the one she had worn when she was in the fourth level. It was a whole new set of equipment that had cost her more than 300,000 spiritual energy coins.

Seeing Tina come out, an uproar of deafening cheers suddenly broke out from the audience. They were all cheering for her.

In the stands on the north side of the dueling field, all two thousand knights from the Unicorn Knights Regiment were present, all of them intently watching their commander in the field below.

On the stands to the south, the high-ranking knights led by Deputy Commander Grace were sitting. They didn’t speak to each other, their faces shadowed by worry.

At the same time, Fiona, wearing silver armor and also riding a unicorn, walked out of the west gate. However, her demeanor was extraordinarily calm, waiting quietly for the duel to start.

Three minutes later, the duel officially began.

Tina was seething with anger.

This time, she didn’t charge forward on her unicorn, but flew directly off the unicorn’s back.

Having advanced to the fifth level, the unicorn could not play a big role, and aerial combat was more effective.

Fiona on the other side was also unfazed. She leaped off her unicorn’s back and flew up to fight Tina.

And she also remembered the words she had with Su Yu; she didn’t use her full strength at the start but treated it as a practice match with Tina, trying to drag out the duel as long as possible.

Tina was neither arrogant nor impatient, treating Fiona as a whetstone, she was full of energy to hone her combat skills.

The two fifth-level powerhouses clashed in the sky above the dueling field.

The space around them kept fluctuating, and the protective shield in the sky also made creaking noises.

However, they both fought with great discipline, their longsword and the one-handed sword clashed repeatedly, treating this as a sparring session.

The two unicorns below had nothing to do, so they just stood there staring at each other. In the end, having nothing to do, they walked to the edge of the dueling field and leisurely started eating weeds.

Tina and Fiona swapped blows back and forth for a total of 20 minutes.

Twenty minutes later, the outcome of the duel was settled: Fiona, exhausted and unable to continue fighting, and the ultimate winner was Tina, who still had a bit of strength left.

The final verdict was announced: Tina won!

Seeing Tina winning, another round of cheering erupted from the stands.

Only the cheering was not very enthusiastic.

Mixed with the cheers, there were also discussions:

“Even though the fight had a higher quality this time, it wasn’t as thrilling as the prior one.”

“Indeed, both sides fought with great discipline, unlike the last time where they bet their lives.”

“But Tina truly had an advantage, worthy of being the chosen one of the Guardian God!”

The news about Tina being chosen by the Guardian God had gradually spread, and almost everyone in the city knew about it now.

In the stands of the Knight’s Regiment and the high command.

After seeing Tina’s real strength, the knights and the high command had a higher degree of recognition of this commander.

No matter if Fiona was holding back or not, judging by Tina’s combat strength, it was indeed clear that she had the qualifications to be the commander.

The knights and the high-level executives all stood up and clapped for Tina.

In the face of the cheers and applause all around, Tina did not respond or hurriedly leave.

First, she remained in place to catch her breath, then she took out a stack of letters from her chest and her little face became incredibly serious.
