"Who is His Highness Lars planning to challenge?"
"Among the younger generation, I'm afraid only His Highness Francis and Her Highness Grinwei can match him. However, the two of them are already injured and will definitely not accept his challenge."
"Is there a need to ask?
It's definitely Gray Fergus. Gray Fergus consecutively defeated three of the Scarlet Kingdom's nobles, putting the Scarlet Kingdom in a difficult position. His Highness Lars will definitely try to salvage this loss of face. "
"Indeed, in the exchange match a few days ago, if not for Gavin Kenneth blocking it, the two of them would have already started fighting."
Just as many people had guessed, when Lars walked onto the stage, he looked towards Gray in the Purple Moon Kingdom's group and spoke in a cold voice.
"Sir Gray, please accept my challenge!"
Following his gaze and words, the gazes of the younger generation of the three great kingdoms all turned toward Gray.
"Gray Fergus, let's see how arrogant you can be now …"
"It would be great if His Highness can beat him up to the point where he can't get out of bed for half a month."
"I'm afraid he won't dare to fight His Highness."
The younger generation of the Scarlet Kingdom sneered.
They were full of confidence in Lars. He was publicly acknowledged as one of the strongest of the younger generation. How could he be a match for someone whose combat strength was comparable to a desolate-grade with a magic weapon?
It wasn't just them. The younger generation of the Jewel Kingdom, who were neutral, also didn't think highly of Gray.
From the battle between Francis and Grinwei, it wasn't hard to see that the three strongest of the younger generation were much stronger than the other newly promoted Desolate Blood Warriors. They naturally didn't think that Gray had the strength to defeat Lars.
Only the Purple Moon Kingdom still had some confidence in Gray. After all, Gray had killed three desolate-grade Warriors, two of which were genuine Desolate Blood Warriors.
Of course, it was only a little. The two Desolate Blood Warriors that Gray killed weren't considered strong among Desolate Blood Warriors. Their combat strength was definitely not comparable to Lars, who had been a Desolate Blood Warrior for many years.
Pa, pa, pa!
Facing Lars' challenge, Gray didn't have much to say. He directly walked out from the Purple Moon Kingdom's team and walked towards the stage.
His black hair fluttered in the wind. His figure wasn't tall and sturdy, but there was a kind of vigor. His eyes were calm, revealing a dark blue color, like the clear sky.
Even if Lars didn't challenge him, he would challenge Lars.
Lars' enmity towards him was one of the reasons. The other reason was to give him pressure.
The reason he came to this exchange was to make the strongest of the younger generation in the two kingdoms pressure him, so that he could reach the second level of the Berserker Realm as soon as possible. Naturally, he needed to challenge powerful people.
Whoosh!
Gray stepped onto the battle platform. There was no exchange of words between them. As soon as they stepped onto the stage, a fierce battle broke out between them.
Lars slashed out with his sword, and an enormous red bolt of lightning, like a huge weapon without a handle, slashed towards Gray.
Gray was not to be outdone either. A long black river, which seemed to have come from the netherworld, greeted the huge red lightning.
Boom!
The red lightning and black mist collided between the two of them. The terrifying explosion sent shockwaves in all directions.
The runes on the ground of the battle platform lit up, and the green barrier around the battle platform trembled.
Lars moved amidst the raging shockwaves. His figure flashed quickly, avoiding the splashing shockwaves of the battle. He rushed in front of Gray, his long sword surrounded by surging lightning. It was like a huge blood red sword, slashing towards Gray.
Gray reacted in time. His long sword, surrounded by black mist, blocked the sword.
Whoosh!
After blocking Lars' sword, Gray changed the direction of his long sword, changing from defense to offense as it slashed towards Lars. Lars, on the other hand, moved to the side, dodging Gray's sword, and attacked Gray again.
Boom, boom, boom!
The two of them exchanged blows at close range. The two huge swords, one red and one black, both emitted a terrifying aura. Every time they collided, a terrifying sound would spread out, shaking the battle platform's protective runes until they flickered continuously.
It was as if two divine swords belonging to the gods were violently clashing.
Boom!
After another exchange, the two of them couldn't help but retreat.
After more than ten exchanges, no one was able to gain the upper hand.
This was a shocking scene, one that many people had not expected before the battle. Lars actually couldn't gain the upper hand.
"His battle techniques aren't weak!"
After more than ten exchanges, Gray objectively evaluated Lars in his heart.
Lars' battle techniques were clearly stronger than Otis Adrian's.
After all, Lars was almost thirty years old, and as the future successor of the Scarlet Kingdom, his talent and hard work were definitely not lacking.
Although he hadn't been on the battlefield, he had probably secretly participated in similar trials.
"To have such terrifying battle techniques at such a young age!"
Gray had a high evaluation of Lars' battle techniques. Lars had an even higher evaluation of Gray's battle techniques. Although his opponent was his "enemy," he had to admit that his opponent's battle techniques were extremely terrifying.
After failing to take down Gray in a row, Lars raised his eyebrows slightly.
He had originally wanted to use his opponent's best battle techniques to defeat him fair and square, but now it seemed that he couldn't defeat his opponent with just battle techniques. His opponent was clearly younger than him, but his battle techniques weren't weaker than his own.
"It's time to end this!"
* Crackle! *
Suddenly, the crimson lightning on Lars' longsword surged even more violently. This was his true strength!
The crimson greatsword, which had expanded by one size, violently slashed at Gray's black greatsword.
Boom!
Under the obviously stronger power of the violent lightning, the black greatsword was shattered, and Gray was forced to retreat continuously by the violent power, only stopping after retreating for dozens of meters.
"Gray Fergus is at a disadvantage!"
"His Highness Lars is finally serious!"
"Hmph, he really isn't a match for His Highness Lars!"
Below the stage, the nobles of the Scarlet Kingdom couldn't help but feel excited.
From the sudden increase in power of Lars' greatsword, it could be seen that His Highness Lars hadn't displayed his full strength before.
Now that he had displayed his full strength, Gray Fergus was immediately at a disadvantage. This made them overjoyed. Obviously, Gray Fergus wasn't a match for His Highness Lars at his full strength.
* Shua! *
With a flash, Lars caught up to the retreating Gray, not giving Gray a chance to react at all, and slashed down with his crimson greatsword.
Black mist surged, and the shattered black greatsword in Gray's hand was restored. He didn't retreat, and instead met the attack with his own.
* Boom! *
A loud sound rang out, and many of the youths outside the stage felt their heads buzz. They felt dizzy, almost fainting from the loud sound of the battle.
"Even the aftershocks of the battle are so strong. His Highness Lars is really too strong … Hm?"
When the aftershocks disappeared and they saw the stage, the youths of the three kingdoms were puzzled.
Lars had displayed his full strength, and his second slash hadn't been able to injure Gray, nor had he been able to force Gray to retreat.
Evenly matched, this was a battle of evenly matched strength!
They carefully observed, and discovered that the black greatsword in Gray's hand had suddenly become thicker, just like Lars'.
"What is going on?
Gray Fergus' battle strength can still increase? "
Below the stage, the youths of the three kingdoms all revealed looks of surprise.
Originally, according to their estimates, Lars should have been stronger than Gray in terms of battle strength after the increase, and Gray should have been at a disadvantage when fighting with him. But now, it seemed that Gray 'battle strength wasn't any weaker than Lars'.
At this time, even the youths of the Purple Moon Kingdom couldn't help but be puzzled. Gray's battle strength could still increase?
"End?
No, it's still early! "
Gray sneered. He blocked Lars' attack, and his black greatsword pierced towards Lars.
The triple-mixed ability was an extremely powerful ability. Even if it was a battle that was two levels higher, it could still display the battle strength of a special desolate level.
And Gray had already reached the limit of the first level of the Barbarian level, and wasn't far from breaking through to the second level. He had also strengthened the power of his triple-mixed ability. After all, abilities would increase as one's level increased.
In terms of the power of his blood fiends, he definitely wouldn't lose to Lars.
* Crackle! *
Lars retreated a few steps, dodging Gray's black greatsword. Then, his red greatsword slashed through the air, and a huge red lightning bolt pounced towards Gray.
The air was filled with a violent aura. The red lightning surged violently, as if it wanted to destroy everything in the world.
Gray's black greatsword suddenly shifted to the left, and the huge sword slashed from left to right.
* Kacha! *
The red lightning bolt was instantly shattered and annihilated. Then, without stopping, he slashed again from right to left.
A long river of black fog gushed out from the black greatsword, rolling and attacking forward.
What welcomed him was a red greatsword descending from above.
The long river of black fog was instantly shattered and completely disappeared. The aftermath of the battle sputtered in all directions, and the green barrier outside the battle stage trembled violently.
* Boom, boom, boom! *
The two, whose power had increased by a notch, clashed again. The red lightning and black fog were like a violent storm, wreaking havoc within the battle stage. It seemed as if the battle stage would disintegrate and explode at any time.
"What a powerful force!"
Outside the battle platform, the younger generation of the Three Kingdoms felt their hearts palpitate as they watched. Not to mention the direct attacks of the two, even the aftershocks of their battle were likely to take their lives.
"Although he's relying on a magic weapon, to be able to fight with His Highness Lars to this extent is indeed impressive!"
A few Desolate Blood warriors were watching with serious expressions. Only the Gem Queen, Glinwei Austin, and Francis were still calm. But even so, they were still watching without blinking. This was a battle that the two of them valued.
"Hmph —"
After exchanging more than a hundred blows, he still couldn't take down Gray. Lars' gaze turned cold, and then, a pair of crimson wings spread out behind his back, and he flew up.
After failing to take down Gray for a long time, he finally displayed his strongest move!
