At night, Lin Yide sat at his desk, opened the system store, and directly used 200 experience points to purchase the Favonius Knight Swordsmanship.

However, the moment after the purchase, he was stunned - what he got was just the basic version of the Favonius Knight's swordsmanship. If he wanted to upgrade further, he would need to invest more experience points.

Before he had the chance to complain about the system's shortcomings, the basic knowledge and experience of Favonius Knights' swordsmanship flooded into his mind like a tide.

Although he only mastered the basic version of the Favonius Knight's swordsmanship, it should be enough to deal with this uneducated young man, Jant.

Just then, the door was pushed open and Dirk hurried in with a worried look on his face.

"Master Ide, how could you agree to duel with Jant?" His voice was full of worry.

Lin Yide seemed quite calm. He asked calmly, "What's wrong?"

Dirk urged anxiously, "Jent's father is Taiwen, the president of the Shadow Chaser Court, and his brother is Tybert, the captain of the Special Patrol. Even if you win this duel, the two of them will never let you go!"

"Oh, really?" Lin Yide's reaction remained calm, as if he was not afraid of these two powerful people at all.

Dirk couldn't help but continue to persuade: "Master Yide, you should leave quickly and go to Baisong Town to avoid the limelight. It won't be too late to come back after a while when things have calmed down."

However, Lin Yide shook his head confidently, "Dirk, don't worry, I already have a plan to deal with it."

Seeing Lin Yide so determined, Dirk knew that it was useless to persuade him any further, and could only sigh helplessly, "Master Yide, if that's the case, then you must be more careful."

Lin Yide nodded seriously, indicating that he had taken Dirk's words to heart.

........

The midday sun shines on the solemn gate of the Obi Klay Opera House. At this time, the place is already crowded with people. People gather from all directions, vying to witness the upcoming duel.

The Fontaine Duel, a time-honored tradition, began as a swordfight between humble men for the entertainment of the nobility.

But as time went on, the nobles were no longer satisfied with just being spectators. They longed to participate in the action themselves and feel the excitement of the clash of swords.

As a result, duels began to become widely popular among the aristocratic class and became a stage for displaying courage and strength.

The purposes of duels vary, from judicial justice to political struggle, from defending personal honor to competing for love. Each duel carries different meanings and expectations.

In modern society, dueling is no longer a way to solve problems.

People gradually realized that this ancient ritual not only failed to resolve conflicts, but might further escalate the situation and even lead to irreversible consequences.

The duel to be held today is an honor duel between nobles, caused by Lin Yide's insult to Lannis in court.

Most people could understand what Lin Yide said. After all, both he and his father were cheated on by women from the Lannis family, and any man would find it hard to stand it.

Just as everyone was eagerly waiting, Jant arrived at the duel scene in his best attire, surrounded by a group of followers.

He was wearing a colorful, elaborately decorated gown, holding a slender flower sword in his hand, and his posture was exaggerated and artificial.

In Jent's opinion, victory in this duel was already a foregone conclusion.

Although he had neglected the family swordsmanship he had learned in his early years due to his indulgence in sensual pleasures, he still firmly believed that he could easily defeat an ordinary person who had never practiced swordsmanship.

The followers around Jant offered flattering words one after another, like a group of clowns vying for favor.

"Master Zhan Te, your swordsmanship is superb. This duel will only take three rounds at most to defeat that ignorant bastard."

"Yes, that guy Ide really doesn't know how to live or die. He actually dared to challenge you. He is simply asking for trouble."

"Master, your bravery and strength will surely spread throughout Fontaine, and everyone will be shocked by your fame."

These compliments made Jant so happy that he felt like he was floating in the clouds.

He secretly made up his mind that he must perform well this time so that his father and brother would look at him with new eyes and completely change the image of him in their minds.

Among the crowd, there was a beautiful girl with a slim figure. She glanced at Jant calmly, with a hint of disappointment and disdain in her eyes.

Obviously, her expectations for this duel had been dashed, because in her opinion, a duelist like Jent was not worth her time watching.

Instead of watching a duel that is without suspense and lacks technical content, it is better to go back and practice your swordsmanship intensified, and strive to become the strongest duel agent of Fontaine as soon as possible.

At this moment, the other party in the duel, Lin Yide, finally arrived.

He was not as flashy as Jent, but simply wore dark blue casual clothes, holding a one-handed sword in his hand, and his expression revealed calmness and determination.

His appearance made the girl stop.

When Zhan Te saw Lin Yide appear, he said in a proud tone: "Yide, I didn't expect a loser like you to dare to duel with me. Have you thought about how to die in my hands?"

"Haha." Lin Yide sneered, "Why wouldn't I dare to come? I will prove today that not only are the women of the Lannis family bitches, but the men of your Lannis family are also bitches!"

As soon as he said this, the onlookers admired and sympathized with him. They admired his courage and sympathized with his ignorance. Didn't he know that Jant's brother was the captain of the special patrol team and his father was the president of the Shadow Chasing Court?

Zhan Te was completely enraged by Lin Yide's words. His eyes seemed to be spewing flames. He roared: "Yide, you are courting death! I swear, in this duel, I will put you to death!"

"I hope your sword is as hard as your mouth!" Lin Yide said sarcastically.

"Stop talking nonsense and prepare to die!" Jant roared, tightly gripping the flower sword, and rushed towards Lin Yide like an arrow.

Lin Yide's eyes focused and he quickly raised his one-handed sword, ready to fight.

This glorious duel officially kicked off.
