Chapter 177 God's Will
As soon as Huan Jian said this, everyone immediately exploded. There will always be some conflicts among knights.
Duels are commonplace for them.
But a life-and-death duel is a form of fighting that only occurs between mortal enemies.
Both parties must find a notary and sign a life-and-death contract before they can engage in a life-and-death duel.
The rules are also very simple. Only when one of the parties dies will the winner be determined!
Huan Jian was really anxious now. He was so angry that he shouted out.
"Really or not? Did I hear it right? Huanjian actually wants to have a life-and-death duel with a junior?"
"This is so shameless! He is a long-established titled knight, and the other party is just a bronze knight. Isn't this bullying?"
Everyone started pointing at the phantom sword.
Almost everyone is scolding him for being shameless and bullying others.
"Huanjian! Do you know what you are doing!"
The group leader Mullin shouted angrily.
Huan Jian was yelled at by Mullin, and then he realized what a stupid thing he had just done!
Knights abide by their own code.
Bullying those who are weaker than oneself is the most shameful behavior of a knight.
It actually appeared on him today!
Huan Jian knew that from now on, he would definitely not be able to survive in the Knights.
His journey as a knight may come to an end here.
Moreover, a life-and-death duel requires the consent of both parties.
Obviously, as long as Steve is in his right mind, he will not agree.
Huanjian suddenly seemed to have aged several dozen years.
He had already begun to think about what he would do after leaving the Knights.
Suddenly, a voice came.
"Huan Jian, I accept your life and death duel!"
Hearing Steve's answer, Huan Jian was stunned for a moment, and then laughed.
"Steve, Steve, I thought you would just be a coward, so that you could at least save a life."
"But I never expected that you would be so overestimating your abilities."
"How dare you agree to my life-and-death duel? I don't know whether you should be brave or risk your own death."
"But this is fine. If I kill you, I can avenge my miserable Reinhardt!"
The long sword in Huan Jian's hand was pointed at Lu Li.
His eyes were like looking at a dead person.
"Steve, you..."
Mullin wanted to persuade Lu Li, but was interrupted by him.
"I know my own strength, so don't worry about me."
Lu Li said confidently.
When Mullin saw this, he had no choice but to sigh and give up persuasion.
Seeing this, everyone hurriedly cleared a space for the two of them.
Lu Li turned around and slowly walked towards the center of the field.
Looking at Lu Li's back, Mullin suddenly burst into tears.
This back view looks very much like Steve Stevens back then!
Mullin suddenly thought of something, and his expression changed again and again.
Lu Li and Huan Jian took their positions and began to face off from a distance.
"Old Mu, you come to be the notary!"
Huanjian shouted to Mullin.
Mullin did not hesitate and jumped directly to the middle of the field.
"Since you said so, let me witness this life-and-death duel."
"Let me first announce the rules of a life-and-death duel."
"Once a life-and-death duel begins, the battle can only end if life and death are determined!"
"Before we begin, do you two have anything else you want to say?"
Mullin asked the two of them.
"I have nothing to say. Let this kid leave a few last words, otherwise you won't hear them again!"
Huan Jian smiled particularly sinisterly.
He was already very sure about the outcome of the duel.
He will win this game! (flag raised high)
"Steve, do you have anything to say?"
Mullin asked seriously.
To be honest, he was still a little worried about Steve.
Lu Li thought for a moment and said, "It really is!"
Everyone pricked up their ears, wanting to hear what Steve wanted to say.
Most of them didn't think highly of Lu Li.
Come to think of it, how could a Golden Knight, who rose from the Bronze Knight through betting, defeat the veteran titled knight Phantom Sword?
This is simply nonsense.
Lu Li cleared his throat.
"Before starting this life and death duel, I would like to introduce myself first."
"My name is Steve, I'm a country boy from the Borderlands, and I'll be seventeen in two months!"
"My mother's name is Tiqi. She is a very good person, but her cooking skills are a bit poor."
"I previously studied at Wangcheng Elite Academy, but due to a conflict with my tutor, I dropped out of school."
"Later, under the recommendation of the leader, I joined the Knights and became a great knight."
As he listened, Huan Jian became a little impatient.
"Steve, do you still want to fight? Why are there so many ink marks here!"
Lu Li ignored Huanjian and continued: "It wasn't until a few days ago that I learned that my father was also a great knight."
"His name is, Steven."
When Lu Li said the word Steven, the entire audience was silent.
After a few seconds, everyone in the audience exclaimed.
"Holy shit! Steven is actually Steve's father!"
"This news is so exciting!"
"Is it the knight Steven who defeated all invincible opponents at the same level eighteen years ago?"
"Nonsense, who else is there besides him?"
"No wonder, this guy Steve looks familiar to me. He turns out to be a descendant of Steven!"
For a time, the whole audience was talking about it.
Many of them joined the Knights after hearing the legend of Steven.
There are also some old people who once lived in the same era as Steven and witnessed that proud man of heaven!
Now, Steven's son appears in the Knights again, facing the challenge of a life-and-death duel from a veteran titled knight.
It’s hard not to be excited about this!
And Steve is much younger than Steven back then.
Youth represents potential. If he can really defeat the Titled Knight Phantom Sword today, then Steve will be the youngest Titled Knight in history!
You know, Steven was so strong back then, but he was still one step away from becoming a titled knight.
If you want to become a titled knight, you must defeat a real titled knight!
What's more, facing a titled knight with terrifying strength like the Phantom Sword.
This is simply impossible!
When Huan Jian heard this, he was stunned for a while.
"So you are that guy's son...what a coincidence!"
Huan Jian suddenly laughed.
"why are you laughing?"
Lu Li asked, but Huan Jian still kept laughing and even squatted down while holding his stomach.
Lu Li looked at Mu Lin in confusion.
"Is he crazy?"
Mullin smiled bitterly and could only explain the reason slowly.
"At that time, your father was planning to start competing for the title of knight after returning from the misty forest."
"And the titled knight he chose to challenge back then was none other than the Phantom Sword..."
"After more than ten years, you unexpectedly made a mistake and wanted to have a life-or-death duel with the Phantom Sword."
"Is this...is it God's will...?"
