Chapter 172 The Duel
on the outpost in front of the barracks.
Fiona put down the monocular she held high, turned around and looked at Su Yu with a little surprise: "What, Tina is going to duel with me?"
"That's right, seven days later, the Oran City Arena."
"But Tina is only Tier 4, how can she beat me?" Fiona's face was a little cold, was she looking down on her?
"Oh, I forgot to tell you." Su Yu put his hand in front of his chest and said very politely: "Just this morning, Tina has successfully advanced to the fifth-rank powerhouse."
"what?!"
"Tina has advanced to the fifth rank? This is."
Fiona couldn't believe her ears. It's only been a few days, and Tina's strength has actually improved by another level!
The fifth-order powerhouse is not Chinese cabbage. The Plantage Empire plus its affiliated kingdoms and principalities have a total population of 130 million, and there are only about 1,500 fifth-order powerhouses.
And with Tina's age and cultivation speed, it is only a matter of time before she advances to the sixth-order sanctuary or even the seventh-order legend.
No wonder Lord Patronus looks at her differently, this is too scary!
But Fiona didn't want to agree to Tina's invitation to a duel.
Obviously, after Tina was promoted, she definitely wanted to gain power by defeating her.
However, for Fiona herself, defeating Tina would not do her any good, and it was impossible for her to regain the position of Legion Commander.
As for losing to Tina, of course, it would be even more useless, and he might be ridiculed by his colleagues.
It doesn't matter if she wins or loses, so why should she fight?
Thinking of this, Fiona ruffled her hair and said coldly, "I have no interest in this duel, please come back!"
She turned around, leaving only Su Yu's back.
Of course, Su Yu knew that Fiona would likely refuse to fight, so who would want to do something thankless?
But he was already prepared.
Su Yu took out a golden magic crystal card from his backpack. The magic crystal card displayed a bright white number—200,000.
This money is not Su Yu's, but Tina's.
In the process of attacking the Milton caravan just now, Su Yu harvested the architectural drawings of the [Auction House] and some equipment and potions; Tina took the magic crystal card that Milton carried with him, which contained a total of 8.83 million psychic powers. currency.
So the money was paid by Tina.
Su Yu raised the magic crystal card and smiled: "If you are willing to appear in this duel, this is the appearance fee for you."
Fiona turned slightly and glanced back at the magic crystal card in Su Yu's hand.
When she saw the numbers on the magic crystal card, her expression condensed slightly.
"Cough cough."
Fiona coughed twice, walked slowly to Su Yu's side, took off the magic crystal card in his hand, and asked, "I agree to Tina's duel request, do I need to release water during the duel?"
"No." Su Yu shook his head: "Tina has just been promoted, and she is very eager for a worthy opponent. Of course, if possible, try to prolong the battle time as much as possible, which is best for her growth."
"I understand what you mean." Fiona put the magic crystal card in her pocket.
Then, she looked at Su Yu with a look at her prey: "Is there anything else? Would you like to go to my room and sit?"
Su Yu: "…"
Seven days later, Oran City Arena.
Today's Grand Arena is crowded with people, and the seats are full. The auditorium, which can hold 30,000 spectators, is full.
The spectators waved flags excitedly and waited excitedly for the duel to begin.
This is a duel between fifth-order powerhouses!
Fifth-order powerhouses are all people with ID cards. The last time the Grand Arena hosted fifth-order powerhouses for a duel was 20 years ago.
The epic duel that has not been met in 20 years has made everyone meet, how can this make everyone not cheer?
While cheering, the audience was also filled with a lot of discussion voices:
"John, what's the market today?"
"1.4:2.52, Tina wins 1.4."
"That's not right? Didn't Tina just get promoted? Why is her odds lower than the opponent?"
"How do I know, I voted the opposite anyway."
"I voted for Tina. Last time, Tina defeated the strong. This time it should be okay."
"Look, Tina is out!"
"It's really Tina, come on Tina!"
At this moment, Tina, who was wearing a golden armor, rode a unicorn and walked out from the east side door.
Tina's golden armor is no longer the one she wore when she was at Tier 4, but a new set of equipment that cost her more than 300,000 psionic coins.
Seeing Tina come out, deafening cheers broke out in the audience, and everyone cheered for her.
On the stand on the north side of the duel arena, the two thousand unicorn knights of the Unicorn Knights were all present, all staring at their army commander in the duel arena below.
On the southern stand, the top leaders of the Knights, headed by Deputy Commander Gracie, also sat here. They didn't speak to each other, but their faces were a little worried.
At the same time, Fiona in silver armor also rode out of the west gate on a unicorn. However, her demeanor was extraordinarily calm, unhurried, quietly waiting for the duel to begin.
Three minutes later, the duel officially began.
Tina's body was full of anger.
This time, instead of driving the unicorn forward, she flew directly from the unicorn's back.
After advancing to the fifth rank, the unicorn has not played much role, and it is still the reality of air combat.
The opposite Fiona didn't panic either, jumped up from the unicorn's back, and faced Tina.
And she also remembered what she said to Su Yu. At the beginning, she did not use all her strength, but fought with Tina in a sparring manner, trying to prolong the battle as long as possible.
Tina is neither arrogant nor impetuous, using Fiona as a whetstone, and honing her fighting skills with great energy.
The two fifth-order powerhouses fought together in the sky of the duel arena.
The space around them continued to vibrate, and the protective cover that enveloped the sky also made a creaking sound.
However, the two of them fought extremely restrained, the long sword and the one-handed sword kept colliding, and they treated this as a competition.
The two unicorns below had nothing to do and stayed where they were. In the end, there was really nothing to do, and they even walked slowly to the edge of the duel arena and ate weeds leisurely.
Tina and Fiona fought back and forth for 20 minutes.
20 minutes later, the duel was decided: Fiona was exhausted and unable to fight again, and the final winner was Tina, who still had a little energy left.
The final referee announced: Tina won!
Seeing Tina's victory, cheers erupted from the stands again.
It’s just that the cheers are not very enthusiastic.
The cheers were also mixed with some discussion:
"Although this battle is a bit more high-end, it's not as exciting as the last time."
"Indeed, both sides fought very moderately, not fighting for their lives like last time."
"But Tina is indeed better, as expected of the one chosen by the patron saint!"
The fact that Tina was chosen by the Patronus has gradually spread, and now the whole city basically knows about it.
The unicorn knight and the high-level stands of the regiment.
After seeing Tina's true strength, the knights and the top leaders of the legion also recognized this legion commander a little more.
Regardless of whether Fiona showed mercy or not, judging from Tina's combat effectiveness, Tina did indeed have the qualifications to become a legion commander.
The knights and the senior officers stood up in unison and applauded for Tina.
…
Facing the cheers and applause from all around, Tina did not respond and did not rush to leave.
She first stood there and took a deep breath, then took out a stack of letters from her arms, her little face became extraordinarily serious.
