Before the battle, Skar was still wearing his formal attire. Blushing, he immediately took off his loose formal attire, only to find that this guy was wearing two sets of knight attire … Summer was not over yet, and sweat was dripping down his neck.

The audience burst into laughter.

Ska hurriedly looked at Cole and Cole's sister Irene beside him. He did not dare to look at them openly, so he secretly glanced at them. He was relieved when he found that Irene was not laughing at him.

The referee blew the horn.

He held the horn in his left hand and placed it near his mouth. This horn was the same style used by the army of the Jinqi Empire, but the pattern on it was more gorgeous. The material of the horn was not the ordinary horn of the Alpine Snow Ox, but the white ivory.

The horn symbolized "war." The referee also held the Rose Scepter in his right hand. He was going to give it to the leader of the victorious side after the battle. The Rose Scepter was the "rose."

Ornate and violent coexisted. This was the War of the Roses.

The referee was also the host of the War of the Roses. As a referee, he should not help either side and be completely neutral. He could not side with either side. However, this was only in theory. Everyone had their own selfish motives. Xu Jun's Coitus Garden was not the property of the mayor of Mundama City. It was also used as a gladiator arena. It was very profitable and belonged to the Golden Banner's Lothar family.

The Lothar family had a deep relationship with Xu Jun's opponent in this duel, the Langer family, where Raquel's team was.

The referee's horn was blown immediately after Raquel gave him a look.

Raquel was an intermediate knight with two senior mages, one male and one female. The middle-aged man was the one in charge, while the female was lazily playing with her fingernails.

There was also a thief standing behind them. He was slightly shorter and wrapped himself tightly, not even showing his face. He occasionally whispered to his companions. Only his hoarse voice could be heard. He seemed to be quite old.

This thief was more low-key. He did not need to fight. According to the original plan, Cole would definitely choose a one-on-one duel. That way, only three people would be needed. However, he did not know why the other party dared to ask for a group battle.

They might win a one-on-one duel, but a group battle … What were they trying to do?

The referee blew the horn, and the middle-aged man's staff immediately lit up. He seemed to want to end the battle quickly. He did not chant a spell, but directly used a magic rune.

Magic runes and magic scrolls were fundamentally different. The former could only reduce the chanting time, but the magic was still provided by the mage. The latter could be used directly.

"Lina, keep an eye on the opponent's warrior. That adventurer gives me the feeling that something is wrong.

Old Snake, go catch Miss Irene, don't waste time. "

Lena was a young female high-level magus. She also had a head of red hair, but she gave off a different feeling from Ska. Ska only gave off a warm feeling, but this woman gave off a completely arrogant feeling. "Perhaps your old eyes are blurry, but I can't tell what's wrong with that adventurer."

Old Snake was their thief. He did not say a word and went into stealth, leaving behind a trail of shadows as he brushed past the middle-aged magus. His blade also seemed to slash across the middle-aged magus' neck.

"Don't order me around," Old Snake said coldly.

The middle-aged magus gritted his teeth, but he could not say a word.

Lena was young and powerful, so she naturally had the right to be arrogant. Her teacher was a famous magus in the empire. She claimed to be that lord's disciple, but everyone knew that she had climbed to that position. She was shameless!

Furthermore, since she had such a relationship with that lord, her strength might not necessarily be that of a true high-level magus. Unfortunately, no one dared to provoke her.

As for Old Snake's identity, it was even more mysterious. He came from the Thieves Association, and even the family head thought highly of him …

He cursed inwardly, but ultimately did not say a word.

None of his subordinates were qualified. Two of them were disobedient, and Young Master Raquel was a complete wastrel. He was completely useless!

If he was not in a hurry to render meritorious service, why would he do such a thing!?

In short, cooperating with Young Master Raquel to take down the daughter of Mengdama City's City Lord was a meritorious service. If Young Master Raquel could win the duel, using force to force Mengdama City's City Lord to marry off his daughter would be a very simple matter.

Mengdama City was a major trading city in the south …

He seemed to see the gold bars bestowed by the family head and a higher status in front of him. Indeed, his vision was filled with yellow.

The spell he had just cast was called Desert Storm. It was a high-grade area-of-effect spell. It could completely envelop an area the size of the arena. The yellow sand was swept up by the wind, and when it hit a person's body, it was like a knife. The three of them and Young Master Raquel were already prepared. Those who needed to use defensive scrolls did so, and those who needed to use shields did so. But their opponents?

A bunch of brats?

They could only passively take the beating in the yellow sand like blind people.

But that adventurer who suddenly appeared in the name of Ska Toloman's senior … seemed to be called Xu Jun?

He gave off a very abnormal feeling. He was like a lion in sheep's skin … The middle-aged high-grade magician frowned. He thought back to many years ago when he was still studying outside. Once again, he met a lion disguised as a herbivorous magical beast. In the end, it took him a lot of effort to kill it.

Young Master Raquel panicked. "Hurry up!

Get Irene out!

If my face is ruined by the storm, how can I marry her!? "

"Old Snake, hurry up. Haven't you found the location?" The middle-aged magician urged.

The next second, he suddenly felt a piercing pain from his lower abdomen. His whole body flew up, and he was in so much pain that he almost bit his tongue. He had been attacked!

Who was the person who attacked him!?

However, all he saw was a silver beam flash from where he was originally standing. There was a piercing sound as the attack did not stop. It even sent Young Master Raquel, who was standing by the side in a daze, flying!

Young Master Raquel was wearing knight armor. Ignoring his combat strength, his armor was rather heavy. Together with his body, he weighed about two to three hundred pounds. Yet, he had been sent flying with a single strike?

The middle-aged high-grade magician was dumbfounded. At this moment, he saw Old Snake's pitch-black figure and heard Old Snake's angry rebuke. "Dudu!

Are you waiting for death!?

Do you want me to kick you again? "

So the person who had kicked him was Old Snake. Old Snake's actions were actually to save him. If he had been standing there foolishly, how could he have survived if he had been struck in the head by the heavy sword?

Dudu shuddered in fear. However, what made him even more alarmed was that the other party had very likely taken advantage of the gap in the duration of his shield to strike!

It had happened in an instant!

Even he did not expect that someone would be able to grasp that gap in time!

However, it was futile. How could Dudu have imagined that someone would specially train in such a manner to defeat a boss? _ (: 3/∠) _

Only the most monotonous of training would be effective in such a manner. Yet, Xu Jun was not afraid of monotonous training.

In the past, he had practiced against a wooden stake in the game for days and nights in order to make his moves more fluid. He had also spent days and nights trying to figure out his moves.

Being a technical god in the gaming area wasn't just for show!

Dudu landed on the ground and got up. He saw Old Snake engaged in battle with the adventurer. Yes, it was the adventurer he had found amiss from the beginning!

The adventurer's strength was probably at the level of a Great Warrior!

That was a figure that was on equal footing with a magician!

How did the young master of the Toloman family know such a 'senior'!?

Old Snake retreated in defeat. A bandit like him was best at assassination and not direct combat. Therefore, he placed great importance on his stealth and speed. He was slightly weaker in terms of strength. In the past, he always felt that he could escape even if his assassination failed. Only now did he realize how terrifying it felt to be locked in a cage.

The adventurer in front of him, the warrior, seemed to have calculated every strike to force him into a corner. Furthermore, the strength was especially great!

His kicks, sword slashes, and even his occasional parries all carried an intimidating aura, perfectly sealing off his next move. The tricky angles would always cause him to lose his balance.

For a bandit who walked on the edge of death, losing his balance was a terrifying matter!

Dudu could also tell that Old Snake was in trouble. He could not help but curse the b * tch, Lena, for leaving him in the lurch. Did this woman only know how to watch from the side!?

When he returned, he had to inform his family head about this matter!

This time, he did not even have any magical runes that could save him time. All he could do was use his staff to conjure a Fire Dragon Spell and charge at the enemy's back. Then, in the sand-filled arena, a hoarse scream that sounded like a rooster being grabbed by the neck was heard.

"You — Dudu — How dare you!!!"

A charred figure collapsed. It was Old Snake.

At the same moment Dudu's Fire Dragon Spell smashed over, Xu Jun moved his body to the side as though he had eyes on the back of his head. He cleverly dodged the Fire Dragon Spell that was enough to burn a forest griffin to death. The one who was struck was Old Snake, whose movements had been restricted.

Then, Xu Jun turned around and faced Dudu.

The yellow sand that filled the sky finally settled down completely. Everyone in the stadium was covered in dust, while the audience outside the stadium let out cries of surprise.

The referee screamed as he held his horn and rose scepter.

Laqueur was slumped to the ground, his fate unknown. Dudu's staff had broken into two. It was probably crushed when he landed after being sent flying.

Lena claimed to be strong, but she had been beaten to a pulp by some unknown move. Half of her hair had been burned. She was also slumped to the ground. Her beautiful face was covered in sand and blood. In contrast, the children of Mengdama City's City Lord were standing with their hair intact.

No, there were actually some injuries. For example, the middle-ranked knight, Ska, had a gash on her arm. Cole's robe had a tear on the front. It seemed like there was a laceration on the inside as well, and there was even some blood.

The three of them also had tiny wounds on their exposed skin. They were densely packed, as though they had been scratched by steel wires. However, these minor injuries were not worth mentioning.

In theory, the duels between nobles and the War of the Roses would not result in any casualties.

After all, they were all large family clans. Although they kept each other in check, there were times when they needed each other's help. What good was there in making things too ugly or even causing deaths?

As long as it wasn't to the point of falling out, it was best not to go too far.

However, before the battle began, Xu Jun had asked Cole and Irene in a low voice.

"The two of you are involved in this battle, so I won't lie."

"Just one question. Can you accept the other party being wiped out?"

Cole and Irene were both stunned for a moment before they understood the meaning of "being wiped out." Cole clenched his fists and fiercely replied, "Let them all die." Irene regained her composure and said with a gentle smile, "His Majesty, the God of Light's Holy Light will cleanse all impure souls."

This sentence came from the Illuminati's book, "Redemption of the Dead." This section talked about what happened after a sinful person died.

Xu Jun immediately understood what this meant.

And this girl … Why did she speak so righteously!

Not bad!

As a hero of justice, he liked children who could speak like this the most!

Miss Irene, you have a bright future!

Come and learn the Three Lights from me ~\ (≧ ▽ *)/~

This was the final outcome of this battle. There would be deaths, and more than one. The first to bear the brunt was Raquel, who had insulted Irene multiple times. Since he dared to use a duel to suppress others, he would have to pay the price for his actions.

As for the others, they didn't have to die. Xu Jun told the youngsters that he would deal with the middle-aged Advanced Magus and the mysterious Assassin. As for Raquel and the female Advanced Magus, the three of them would deal with them.

"This is a good opportunity. You children usually learn fighting techniques in school, but it's not enough for real combat. So this time, you can try to learn how to kill."

These words were said lightly, but both Ska and Cole felt a chill run down their spines. Even Irene, who had just said those harsh words, was a little scared. God knew that she had said those words on purpose, but she didn't mean to kill them.

"A bunch of kids." Xu Jun smiled again and shook his head. "Don't worry, I'm just letting you be mentally prepared. Maybe none of you will die. But if that's the case, it won't be a good thing."

They were still children. Even if they were forced into a corner, they would only want to fight. Even if they were angry, their hearts would soften at the thought of death.

But in this world, it was a life and death struggle. You could forgive others, but would others forgive you in the future?

With the idea of training the youngsters, he didn't give the three children any protection potions. Instead, he let them fight against the storm. But he did give them some vision potions. This way, they could see clearly in the yellow sand, which was much more advantageous for them.

Ska restrained Lina while he attacked. Although Irene and Cole's cooperation was shaky, it was still passable. They quickly beat Lina to the ground. Her sternum was shattered, and she couldn't live.

For these rookies, defeating and killing a Advanced Magus in the first battle was a very enviable achievement. But they looked at each other with blank faces.

"Dead … dead?"

"… We did it?"

It seemed that they had suffered a serious psychological blow. The three youngsters were crying. Xu Jun clapped his hands to get them to come back to their senses. There was still one person alive on the battlefield. How could they not kill all of them?

The three youngsters were as timid as quails.

The audience was anxious for them. They were all nobles of Mengdama City. Of course, they would stand on the side of the mayor.

Only the referee fell to the ground with a plop. His face was pale, and he muttered, "Dead, dead." He suddenly got up and wanted to call for help. But because of the black disease, the manager of Hehuan Garden had already found an excuse to go home. He couldn't find anyone to take care of things.

Xu Jun thought that he should do it himself. At this moment, he heard a dignified but weak voice from the top of the audience. "Cole!

Look at what you have done! "

Cole looked up in disbelief. "Father?

Why are you here?! "

He looked like a primary school student who had done something bad and his parents had to call for help. _ (: 3∀ ∠) _

Author Has Something to Say: Xu Jun is so cold. _ (: 3∀ ∠) _

Junjun the Brave: This is the spirit of sweeping away enemies like the cold wind, and warm companions like the spring breeze!
