Becoming a winner in life starts with becoming a shadow

Chapter 148 Crushing battle, brutal slashing.

In the VIP room of the stadium, Li De and Alexia sat in the seats belonging to the student seats.

As soon as he sat down, Li De felt the scrutiny from all around.

Who asked Alexia to show no concealment at all, and showed intimacy from the moment she entered the venue, and walked in with both hands on his arm.

Such an unconcealed and ostentatious signal is not so simple.

Especially after Li De and Alexia walked in, Princess Alice, who was sitting in the guest seats, did not react at all, which was even more surprising and intriguing.

But for a while, no one came forward to ask anything, but after looking at each other inconspicuously, they all chose to wait and see for the time being.

After all, the theme of today is the Martial God Festival. Even if you really want to test it, you can wait until the Martial God Festival is over.

Just when many people were thinking about how to test after the Martial God Festival, a commotion broke out, and the two kings, Ronald and Klaus, also entered the venue.

Of course, this situation was not surprising, after all, the king of the Kingdom of Oriana, Ronald, came to Midgar to watch the Martial God Festival.

And since Ronald was here, Klaus, as the host, had to make time to attend out of courtesy.

After greeting each other, the two sat down.

At this moment, Klaus must be standing behind the two of them.

And the one standing behind Ronald was naturally Elizabeth, who was wearing a black dress and a black veil on her head.

As for Rose, she had already sat next to Alice and began to communicate in a low voice.

Soon, the main competition began, and the first game was the most watched duel between beautiful girl magic swordsmen.

Claire Kageno of the Midgar Magic Swordsman Academy fought against Annerojie Fushianas, one of the Seven Swordsmen of Levigartai in the Kingdom of Bekada.

"Begin!"

After the two entered the arena and stood still, with the referee's order, Anne Luojie's feet burst out with terrifying power, and immediately pushed her body towards Claire.

At this moment, she was already ready to swing her sword in mid-air.

But the next moment, Anne Luojie opened her eyes in disbelief, and then hurriedly blocked herself with her sword.

Because she saw Claire swinging her sword directly on the spot.

Although she didn't quite understand why the other party swung the sword so early at the first moment, they were still far away from each other.

But in the second moment, when a huge slash with a faint light was formed along with the sword swing and cut across her, she had no choice but to block it with her sword.

Clang!

The next second, the slash collided with Anne Luojie's sword.

It was obviously not a metal collision, but it made a dull sound of metal collision.

Of course, Anne Luojie didn't care about this problem at the moment.

Because the moment she was hit, the sword in her hand was almost knocked out.

Even though she bit her lip and held the hilt tightly, she was pushed back by the force of the slash without any resistance.

Bang!

With a loud bang, Anne Luojie was pushed to the edge of the arena by the slash.

She herself hit the wall at the edge of the venue heavily, and her whole body fell into the dent made by the slash on the wall.

With the dent made by her slash as the center, a slash mark with a total length of more than 50 meters was delayed on both sides, and appeared on the wall with the slash, which was imprinted in the sight of most of the audience.

For a while, there was a strange silence in the whole arena.

Wow!

Until Anne Luojie spurted out a mouthful of blood, and then slid down from the dent powerlessly and fainted, the whole arena instantly boiled.

"What was that just now?"

"That magic swordsman is so strong!"

"It's so exaggerated. He actually cut a huge hole in the wall at the other end from such a distance."

"I can't believe it's true unless I see it with my own eyes."

The ordinary seats were full of people, and there were also constant exclamations in the VIP room.

After all, although the people sitting here could not see the moment when Claire swung the sword clearly, they saw clearly how the slash was formed and how Anne Luojie was blown away.

You know, before the fight, they didn't think much of Claire, and even had an attitude of scrutiny and criticism.

Who told Claire to be Alice's personal guard now? No matter who the opponent is, as long as they don't win a gorgeous victory, they are ready to criticize.

But what many people didn't expect was that Claire's way of winning was unexpectedly gorgeous.

"What happened just now?"

"Is that a magic slash?!"

"So brutal!"

"Who is that magic swordsman?"

"I heard her name is Claire Kagenor, a recent graduate of Midgar Magic Swordsman Academy, with good achievements."

"Is she a student of the Magic Swordsman Academy?"

"Can Midgar Magic Swordsman Academy train such a powerful student now?!"

"Probably not. I watched the War God Festival last year, and she also appeared, but she was not that strong at all!"

"Wow, Sid, your sister Claire is really amazing!" Just as the discussion was going on, Alexia suddenly shouted happily.

"Of course, after all, my sister has fought with the bandits in the territory when she was eight years old." Li De added at the right time.     "How is it possible? How old is eight years old? There should be a limit to nonsense." A voice of rebuttal came from not far away.

"Sid, I believe you. After all, if there is no such experience, how can it be so powerful? You must know that the opponent this time is Anilojie Fushianas, one of the Seven Swords of Levigartai in the Kingdom of Bekada.

A famous magic swordsman in the whole continent. When the Holy Land was still there, she was one of the few powerful magic swordsmen who could summon powerful heroes in the Holy Land and leave achievements. Facing such an opponent, being able to kill him in one move, this is not powerful, how can it be considered powerful." Alexia took the initiative to take over the topic. After all, Li De's identity is not good at retorting in such an occasion.

"Then why didn't she show such overwhelming strength a year ago? I absolutely don't believe that a year can make a person have such a huge leap in power." Another voice also sounded.

"A year ago, Senior Claire was not my sister's personal guard." Alexia replied lightly.

"Uh"

"Didn't some people not understand why my sister chose Senior Claire to be her personal guard? Now you understand, my sister Alice's vision is not wrong." Alexia added.

After all, when Claire became Alice's personal guard, many people jumped out to question how a country baron's eldest daughter could become the princess's confidant.

There were even many people who took the opportunity to discredit her, thinking that Princess Alice had a bad vision, and then worried about the future of Midgar, etc. Anyway, there were endless bad words.

Because of this, Alexia deliberately gave up her place and manipulated the battle order, just to give a good slap to those nobles who had been shouting loudly before.

However, there was one thing that Alexia probably didn't expect, that is, regarding the battle order, those who questioned Claire also made a great contribution.

After all, they were counting on Anne Luojie to defeat Claire so that they could continue to criticize Princess Alice's vision in the matter of the personal guard.

Unfortunately, they didn't expect the review to come too quickly, catching people off guard.

These people even blamed Anne Luojie in their hearts at this moment. After all, even if Anne Luojie resisted for a few rounds and was knocked down, they wouldn't be so helpless as they are now.

It's just that they couldn't say that Anne Luojie was a waste. After all, even if these people were so unwilling to face reality, they were also shocked by the huge cut.

"Although I always felt that Claire was very strong before, I didn't expect that she would be so strong. Princess Alice, I really envy you." Rose was also building momentum for Claire at this moment.

"Princess Rose, you are too kind, but it is precisely because she is strong enough that I can rest assured to entrust my safety to her." Alice smiled and replied.

"Yes, I would definitely feel relieved if it were me. But Princess Alice should pay attention to such talents. In my opinion, there will be many people who want to recruit her." Rose nodded in approval and immediately started the topic.

"Don't worry about it. Claire will not abandon me. After all, her brother is my sister's fiancé. We will hold an engagement ceremony after graduation." Alice also took the opportunity to announce the news.

As soon as Alice finished speaking, many people who heard it showed disbelief in their eyes.

"Well, no wonder Princess Alice is so confident. I didn't expect you to have such a sharp vision and courage." Rose couldn't help but cover her mouth and exclaimed.

"Princess Rose, you misunderstood. Although Claire does love her brother Sid, this is not the reason. It's mainly because Alexia and Sid have been in love in the academy, and they have a good relationship. My father and I are also happy to bless them." Alice continued.

"I have heard about Sid and Princess Alexia's relationship, but I didn't expect it to be settled so quickly." Rose exclaimed again.

Undoubtedly, the content of the conversation between the two princesses made the people who were listening with their ears perked up open their eyes in disbelief.

You know, Alexia is the second princess of the Kingdom of Midgar, the second heir in line.

In order to recruit a slightly stronger magic swordsman, the king and the eldest princess are not crazy, right?

However, before these people had time to ask Alice the questions in their hearts and the reasons why Li De was not suitable to be Alexia's fiancé, Rose's father Ronald spoke first.

"King Klaus, you are really courageous!"

"Hahaha, King Ronald, I just want my daughter to be happy, that's all." Klaus waved his hand calmly.

"If it's someone Rose likes, as a father, I will agree." King Ronald said randomly.

"It seems that King Ronald, you are also very open-minded!" Klaus said with a smile.

However, both of them knew one thing very well, that is, if Claire had not shown such a strong crushing strength, these words would never come out of their mouths.

Perhaps many nobles who cannot see the essence of the magic swordsman find it difficult to understand why they have to spend such a huge price to win over a powerful magic swordsman.

But Klaus and Ronald know very well how important a truly powerful magic swordsman is to a kingdom.

Let's put it this way, the so-called Knights are essentially the magic swordsman group, and no matter how strong the troops are, they cannot rely on equipment and numbers to make up for the gap in strength.

It seems that a magic swordsman like Anne Luojie, even if placed in the Kingdom of Midgar, is at least at the level of deputy leader of the Knights.

And such a good player can't even take Claire's sword, what about those who are not as good as Anne Luojie?

On the battlefield, how much does it cost to stop a Claire?

Given the strength shown by Claire, a knight group is probably not enough.

The most important thing here is that such a powerful magic swordsman will not stay in one place and let you use numbers to pile her to death.

So when it comes to the battlefield, there is such a powerful magic swordsman acting as the arrowhead, which can easily tear the opponent's defense, which has a significant impact on the morale of both sides and may even directly determine the outcome of the war.

Why can the Diabolos Cult rule the world in secret for so many years, and the rebel forces have never been interrupted during this period, but no one can create a threat to it until the appearance of the Shadow Courtyard, but these rebels will soon disappear in history?

It is not because the Diabolos Cult is hidden deep, but because there are enough strong people in the Diabolos Cult.

In other words, these rebel organizations do not have strong people sitting in charge, and they cannot beat the Diabolos Cult.

So when the Shadow Courtyard, which has caused the Diabolos Cult to suffer heavy losses continuously, appeared in this era, countries will pay special attention to it.

It is precisely because of the understanding of the importance of a real strong man to the kingdom that Klaus will agree to Alexia without hesitation.

After Ronald spoke, many nobles who were ready to move stopped temporarily.

After all, if one king makes such a choice, it may be stupid, but if both kings make such a choice, then it is possible that it is not the other king who is stupid, but the one who thinks it is wrong.

Of course, it is also possible that both kings are stupid.

But no matter who is stupid, it is not appropriate to bring up the topic of opposing Alexia's engagement at the moment.

It is okay to criticize your own king, after all, you will not get pregnant, and Alexia's marriage involves the political balance of the entire kingdom, and any noble can jump out to care about it.

In the eyes of these nobles, we care about the interests of the kingdom. Even if your king has many dissatisfactions, how to settle the matter later, you have to hold your nose and explain it to us now.
