Chapter 76: – Victory

Dust billowed and blood could be faintly seen spraying through the air, landing in all directions.

This exchange between the two Knights was much more intense than before. Both Chen Heng and Delano had used their full strength.

The aftermath from this clash was quite shocking.

Knight Secret Techniques exploded out with terrifying might, and even a Knight hit by one without any preparation would be gravely injured or killed.

After the two swords collided, they both shattered.

This was not surprising.

As Knights, their weapons were not ordinary weapons, and they were top-tier weapons made from the best materials.

It was just that no matter how good a weapon was, it would not be able to last throughout this battle.

With how ferociously they were fighting, one could imagine just how much stress the weapons had been put through.

Over the two hour battle, their weapons were reaching their limits. It was just that they had only lasted this long because of the two Knights’ life energy.

However, even so, their swords could no longer take it and were directly destroyed. The life energy they contained also erupted out.

Chen Heng raised his head.

Lying on the ground, he could sense other people’s gazes: Olivia, Verna, Krudo, and the others.

They were all looking at him with incredibly anxious gazes.

Under their gazes, Chen Heng slowly got up and stood tall.

On the other side, Delano was on the ground, and he was also trying to stand up like Chen Heng. However, in the end, he did not have that strength.

The fight with Chen Heng had already used up all of his strength.

That was his final attack just then: It would either be victory or defeat after that.

Once he lost, he would no longer have the strength to retaliate.

In actuality, the reason he had not completely collapsed yet was because his body was being supported by his powerful life energy. Otherwise, with his current state, he should be lying incapacitated on a bed.

“You’ve lost.”

Chen Heng gained his footing with great difficulty.

He had also used up much of his strength and his body was incredibly weary.

Under the faint sunlight, his figure was tall and straight, and he looked incredibly heroic. Adding on his looks, he gave off a feeling that made anyone want to respect him.

He provided a great contrast to Delano.

“Indeed, I’ve lost.”

Looking at Chen Heng walking over, Delano bitterly laughed and nodded.

He understood that in terms of pure strength, there was not much difference between him and Chen Heng; if they were really fighting to kill, victory and defeat would not be certain.

However, Chen Heng was much younger than him and his body was at its peak.

He could quickly recover from the same amount of stamina consumption, and he also had more stamina in total.

With this difference between them, no matter how many times they redid this battle, the result would be the same.

Delano tossed away his broken sword and put up his hands.

All around them, cheers sounded out.

The silent arena once again became lively, and everyone was cheering and shouting Chen Heng’s name.

Defeating a famous Knight as a new Knight provided him with massive fame.

Rising up by stepping on the previous generation would always be the fastest method.

The spectators were sent into an uproar, and many people’s expressions became serious as they looked at Chen Heng standing below. In that moment, they mentally listed him as a much more important person.

Those who were close to Chen Heng, such as Verna, Kelly, and Krudo, all smiled, feeling very happy about this conclusion.

However, Olivia frowned, not feeling very pleased.

“Kailin is too timid, he should take this opportunity to get rid of Delano. What did he stop for?”

She saw the situation below very clearly.

Chen Heng had been at an advantage throughout the entire battle. If he wanted to, he would have been able to deal with Delano.

Delano was not an ordinary person; he was the Olis Kingdom’s Knight, and he was part of the power that Grith had borrowed.

In other words, he was an absolute enemy.

Facing an enemy, Chen Heng did not act ruthlessly and get rid of him, and instead he stopped, wasting this opportunity.

The Martial Tournament did not allow people to kill their enemies, but there were often accidents during battles.

In that battle just then, if Chen Heng had gone all-out and killed Delano, who would complain?

“Knight Kailin is still too young. Even though his strength is exceptional, he most likely did not even think about this.”

Standing beside Olivia, Senban shook his head, “So he did not grasp this opportunity.”

“It’s also my fault.”

Hearing Senban’s words, Olivia smiled, “I never thought that he would be able to do such a thing, so I didn’t speak to him about this. However, for him to be able to defeat Delano, it’s already enough.

“After this battle, Delano shouldn’t have too much strength remaining. Senban, do you have the confidence to get rid of him?” she asked as she looked at Senban.

“Rest assured, Your Highness,” a slight smile appeared on Senban’s cold face, “if it was before, I wouldn’t be a match for him. However, now…”

After concluding the battle, Chen Heng left the arena.

Different to what Olivia had thought, Chen Heng had not let off Delano because he had not thought about it; rather, he just did not want to do it.

If he was completely loyal to Olivia, then no matter what, he would have gotten rid of this enemy for Olivia.

However, it was a pity that this was not the case.

Killing Delano was beneficial for Olivia but not for Chen Heng.

Killing an enemy who had surrendered violated the Knights’ code.

It would be fine to do this if there was no one around, but doing so with so many people watching, it would be a massive blow to Chen Heng’s reputation.

Moreover, he felt that Delano was not so simple.

Chen Heng could sense that he still had strength remaining; from the start, he had not gone fully all-out.

It was likely that he was not as weak as Olivia thought he was.
