Chapter 186: [Light Knight]

~7 min read 1,261 words

The golden light slowly dissipated, and when everyone's vision refocused, a massive deep pit appeared in the center of the arena, as if it had been torn apart by the hand of a god.

A golden long spear slanted into the bottom of the pit, the spear body flowing with a faint yet majestic light, as if containing some ancient and powerful force. The ground around the long spear was scorched black and cracked by extreme high temperature, the cracks spreading outward like a spider web, and in the area closest to the long spear, the sand and stone had already melted into a piece of crystalline glass, refracting dazzling light in the sunlight, like the scars of the earth.

And in that position, where there should have been five fierce warriors, now not even their corpses or ashes could be seen.

The entire arena fell into a dead silence, and even the wind seemed to have stopped. The audience held their breath, their gazes wandering between the mysterious golden long spear and the golden figure in mid-air.

Is... is he this powerful?!

Even Siwen, who had been sulking on the ground, stood up slowly at this moment, frowning and staring tightly at Aoruilian's golden figure overhead.

And the Earl of Somerset of the Gaodi Kingdom, who had been incomparably arrogant, could only stare at all this with his mouth wide open in disbelief.

"Hahaha, Queen, I must criticize you! You should have let the warriors under the Earl of Somerset show some bravery; your guards killed those subordinates of the Earl of Somerset in one blow, making the Earl lose so much face! Hahahaha!"

"Hehe, yes, it's still His Majesty who considers things thoroughly! Next time, next time I will take care of them to be careful, don't hurt the subordinates of the Earl of Somerset!"

King Aotuo's sudden heroic laughter broke the silence of the arena, and the Queen's smiling words caused a burst of laughter from the whole audience.

And that Earl of Somerset of the Gaodi Kingdom, his fat face first turned bright red, then from red to blue, and finally black like the bottom of a pot. The corners of his eyes twitched slightly, his fists clenched, and his knuckles turned white from the force.

Finally, he could no longer hold back, snorted coldly, and ignoring even the most basic etiquette, he directly flicked his sleeves and left. His pace was hurried and messy, his wide robes swinging behind him, his back looking incomparably embarrassed, like a beast with a broken spine, fleeing in a hurry from this place that had caused him to lose all face.

Watching the Earl of Somerset's embarrassed back, the entire arena erupted into another burst of laughter.

Everyone was laughing loudly at the failure of the Gaodi Kingdom, only Snow White revealed a look of unbearable pity on her face.

And the three Travelers behind her had faces that became solemn, their six eyes staring dead at Aoruilian who was slowly falling from mid-air.

And Aoruilian seemed to have telepathy, turning his head to look.

Following Aoruilian's gaze, Siwen glanced at the stands, and he became even angrier.

Siwen felt that he shouldn't have let Aoruilian show off just now, making everyone default to this guy being the leader of the team.

Ignoring the two Traveler teams whose vigilance was maxed out, all the high-level nobles of the Lain Kingdom were in high spirits; their country had been threatened by the Gaodi Kingdom's military power for years, and this time they had really gained a lot of prestige.

Sure enough, the Queen was not only beautiful and noble, but even her wisdom and ability were superior.

And the happiest person was King Aotuo.

Supporting the beautiful Queen, King Aotuo walked to the edge of the stands and announced loudly.

"Brave warrior, you have won honor for the kingdom! Tell me your name loudly, warrior!"

"Aoruilian! Aoruilian Solaris! My Majesty!"

Aoruilian placed his right fist on his heart, reporting his name with his head held high.

Seeing Aoruilian's salute, Aotuo was even more satisfied.

"Aoruilian Solaris! Your loyalty is unquestionable, your courage is peerless! Today, I, Aotuo Augustus, the second King of the Lain Kingdom, in the name of royal power, confer upon you the title of 【Light Knight】! Accept this honor and continue to fight for the kingdom!"

Aoruilian, who received the entry prompt, had a face full of ecstasy and hurriedly bowed and saluted.

"Your Majesty, your trust is my supreme honor. I, Aoruilian Solaris, will defend the glory of the Lain Kingdom with my life and repay your grace with loyalty and courage. May the glory of the kingdom last forever!"

Aoruilian's original 【Sun Knight】 was a supernatural profession, while the 【Light Knight】 conferred by King Aotuo was different; this was a title, and even if it was the lowest title, it was extremely rare.

Xie Yaoyao had a deep understanding of the convenience and practicality of titles.

Noticing the gazes of others, Aoruilian looked calm and showed the entry he had just obtained, and tacitly indicated that he would take the initiative to withdraw next time there was such an opportunity to give the opportunity to others in the team.

A fait accompli, Siwen couldn't change anything no matter how angry he was, but Aoruilian's promise made him feel some comfort in his heart; he had already defaulted that the next opportunity would be his.

The beautiful Princess had come of age, and they had defeated their arch-enemy, the Gaodi Kingdom, in the arena, so the King happily announced that the scale of the dance party in the evening would be expanded.

Apart from nobles, all subjects in Star City who had a decent dress could come to participate in the party.

This made the Princess, who already had a good reputation, gain the love of everyone; after all, ordinary people might not have the opportunity to participate in a dance party held by the royal family in their lifetime.

Of course, the ordinary people here referred to ordinary rich people, not all civilians. After all, noble lords hadn't decided whether poor people counted as people!

The palace naturally couldn't accommodate so many people, and in order not to bring a heavy burden to the royal family, the invited wealthy merchants and rich people provided manpower, material resources, and financial resources, turning the square outside the castle into a massive dance venue!

Of course, although they didn't pay money or provide people, the host was still the respected King.

After all, the King and Queen had appeared in front of everyone with the respected Princess, letting everyone admire the appearance of the great royal family members, which in itself was an honor.

The brilliant lights reflected the gorgeous clothes and jewelry, and the kingdom's party was like a dream, intertwined with whispers of power and steps of desire, dancing on the edge of glory and conspiracy.

While everyone was immersed in the joy of the party, in a side hall of the palace, two teams were in a standoff.

"What? Want to start a war here?"

Facing the axe-wielding strong man full of malice, Luka's figure gradually expanded, two sharp horns grew from the top of his head, and a rough head slowly turned into a bull's head.

"Hehe, Minotaur bloodline? Interesting!"

Siwen felt that if he could directly kill all the people on the other side, then that cocky 【Sun Knight】 definitely wouldn't dare to be loud in front of him again. ===== CHAPTER 187 =====
