Ever since Rockwell XVII Austin ordered Zhang Yunfeng and Sacra to resolve the emotional entanglement in an aristocratic duel.
Zhang Yunfeng was left in the palace by the 'enthusiastic' Majesty Austin, who even called him "recharge your batteries and wait for the duel."
But Zhang Yunfeng certainly didn't believe Austin's extremely lame excuse. Why he was kept in the palace just to let him recharge his batteries was bullshit.
In fact, he didn't want to take advantage of the opportunity to confine himself in the palace and prevent him from having the opportunity to ask for help outside and prepare.
And Austin's subsequent treatment of him also proved Zhang Yunfeng's idea.
Austin placed Zhang Yunfeng in a luxurious palace and served him delicious food and drinks every day. Even if he wanted those beautiful maids to sleep with him, they would not mind.
But the only restriction is that Zhang Yunfeng must not leave the area a hundred meters away from the palace. Every time he pretends to take a walk and crosses the cordon, there will always be some imperial guards who appear out of nowhere with "good intentions"
He reminded Zhang Yunfeng that he had crossed the line.
Moreover, Zhang Yunfeng also keenly felt that there were a large number of masters hidden around the palace, monitoring him all the time. Xiao Jiujiu's energy wave scan also confirmed his feeling. There were eight golden swords hidden around the palace.
Masters, sixteen silver swordsmen, and thirty-two bronze swordsmen.
They were divided into four groups and guarded the four directions of the palace. No matter which direction he approached, they would lock themselves in immediately.
That's not all. Xiao Jiujiu also reported to him that while he was resting, several saint-level powerhouses had entered the palace to peek at his situation. Moreover, the saint-level powerhouses who came each time were not the same person.
, which made Zhang Yunfeng feel a lot heavier.
He didn't expect that the hidden strength of the Rockwell Empire was so amazing, and that it could even send several saint-level powerhouses to monitor him.
Zhang Yunfeng can guarantee that the hidden strength of the Rockwell Empire is definitely more than what he has discovered. There must be more saint-level powerhouses hiding in the dark.
This also made Zhang Yunfeng's vigilance towards the royal family of the Rockwell Empire reach its highest point, and he secretly decided that as long as he completed this duel, he would start building his own power.
Tmd, in this world, it’s really hard to live without power. I’m generally on tenterhooks. It’s so unpleasant.
As for how to form a force, now is not the time to think about it. After all, he is still under house arrest in the palace and cannot even get out of the city gate. He is still talking about forming a force. He might as well enjoy it. Anyway, Austin is allowed to live by himself.
In the palace, not everyone can encounter such treatment. If you don't take the opportunity to enjoy it, it would be a waste.
With this kind of ideological awareness, Zhang Yunfeng took on the role of himself and enjoyed the luxurious life of the royal family.
Every day when he wakes up, there will be a large group of orioles surrounding him. Whether eating, walking, or practicing, there will always be at least three palace maids following him. He lived a very comfortable life as a child, eating delicacies from the mountains and seas, and sleeping like silk.
The couch is made of silk and satin and is inlaid with gold and jade. Even the maids who serve it are not vulgar and are very eye-catching.
Of course, Zhang Yunfeng is not a lustful ghost, he also has principles.
Even though those maids were all young and beautiful girls waiting for marriage, the most he could do was use his hands and feet, and he never crossed the line of defense.
But Zhang Yunfeng wanted to be a gentleman, but some people didn't want him to be.
He found that those palace maids seemed to be under the command of someone. Not only did they wink at him and flatter him, but they also wore those thin clothes and gauze and swayed in front of him, which made him feel itchy.
With Zhang Yunfeng's intelligence, he could naturally guess who the person behind the scenes was who instigated those palace ladies to do this!
In the palace, there are only two people who have the ability to instruct the maids to do this.
One is Rockwell XVII, His Majesty Austin. It is absolutely easy for an emperor like him to instruct several maids to seduce him.
However, with Austin's imperial dignity, it is obvious that he cannot do such a despicable thing.
Since Austin is not the emperor, there is only the imperial queen whom Zhang Yunfeng has not met yet. With the queen's function of being in charge of the internal affairs of the palace, it is not difficult to transfer a few maids.
The most important thing is that Prince Sacra is the queen's flesh and blood.
If Zhang Yunfeng's guess is correct, the queen whom he has never met may be planning to take advantage of her youthful vigor and virility to use those palace ladies to seduce her and weaken her strength before the duel with Sacra.
Let those palace ladies 'suck' themselves dry.
By then, after getting on the duel stage, he must have been severely damaged by his indulgent life these days. When he faces Sacra in his heyday, his fate can be imagined.
Coming to this conclusion, Zhang Yunfeng naturally stayed away from those beautiful palace ladies.
Two days flew by.
The Imperial Duel Arena was already overcrowded at the moment. The large auditorium that could originally accommodate 20,000 people was now filled to the brim with more than 50,000 spectators.
The entire imperial duel ground is an oval building with a diameter of more than 700 meters and a height of about 200 meters. It adopts the ancient Roman architectural style. There is a large open space in the middle for duels, and a large area is connected around it.
There are rows of auditoriums, at least hundreds of floors from bottom to top, and they are magnificent and majestic.
However, now the auditorium, which was originally designed to be extremely spacious, has been filled with enthusiastic spectators. Those spectators waved and shouted from time to time, with extremely excited expressions.
Of course, the audience at the scene was mostly composed of nobles.
There's nothing we can do about it, because the life of a noble is too monotonous and boring.
Except for occasionally attending some luxurious banquets, visiting auctions, or visiting friends' homes, their lives are painfully monotonous. Their only way to get excited is to watch bloody duels, especially those with high status.
Have a duel to satisfy their inner violence factor.
Moreover, one of the parties involved in the duel this time was the highly respected Crown Prince, which pushed their enthusiasm to the highest point.
With a sound of time!
All the spectators' eyes were cast on the passages on both sides of the fighting arena.
The first to enter was His Royal Highness Sacra, the Crown Prince of the Rockwell Empire.
Today, Sacra is wearing a majestic heavy armor, a golden face-covered helmet, and two two-handed swords on his waist. He is sitting astride a stronger leopard-shaped monster and slowly walks through the passage.
In the middle of the duel arena.
Under the sunlight, the pitch-black armor flashed with an icy cold light, giving Sakrapin a murderous aura.
Wearing this majestic equipment, Sacra suddenly appeared on the duel field, which immediately caused the audience at the scene to shout wildly, including many noble ladies and daughters, who were screaming crazily.
Sacrafang seemed to be deaf to all this and turned a blind eye. He drove the strong monster on his crotch and stopped directly in the center of the duel. He glanced at the dark entrance passage opposite, snorted coldly, and then walked in front of tens of thousands of people.
Under the gaze of the audience, he closed his eyes and rested his mind.
In a seat closest to the center of the duel field that was obviously more upscale than other auditoriums, Austin and the ministers of the empire were present here to watch the duel.
Seeing Sacra's current behavior, Austin smiled without trace.
Although Austin proposed in the meeting hall that day to use a noble duel to resolve the dispute between Sacra and Zhang Yunfeng, it seemed completely fair and without favoritism.
But in fact, as early as when he proposed a duel between the two sides, he was already leaning towards Sacra's side.
Although Zhang Yunfeng's junior magician strength has already made him the king among his peers, Sacra's strength is not weak either.
You know, the practice of a sword master is much faster than that of a magician. As long as you have good fighting skills, supplemented by various genius treasures and the guidance of famous teachers, it is not difficult to reach the realm of bronze sword master before the age of thirty.
.A prince like Sacra, who comes from a royal family, is naturally indispensable for precious resources such as Dou Qi Kung Fu. Although Sacra's cultivation talent is not very good, at the age of twenty-six, under the urging of various geniuses and treasures, he also has
The cultivation level of a seventh-level bronze swordsman.
Compared with a bronze swordsman and a junior magister, although the junior magister has a better chance of winning, that is only if there are no restrictions. Otherwise, once the bronze swordsman gets close, the junior magister can only wait to die.
And in a place like the duel arena where the range of activities is limited, it is obviously disadvantageous for the magician. If the distance cannot be opened at the beginning, or the magic is released quickly, the junior magician will have a greater chance of winning against the bronze swordsman.
A teacher.
Moreover, in order for Sacra to cope with today's duel, Austin spent a lot of effort to find a lot of high-end magic equipment for Sacra to wear.
The magic props and weapons on the continent of Augus are also divided into levels. There are six levels: elementary, intermediate, advanced, top, holy, and god. And holy and god-level equipment have been developed since thousands of years ago.
After the War of the Gods, it basically disappeared. Most of the equipment that still appears on the mainland are elementary, mid-level, and high-level equipment, and even top-level equipment is rare.
The armor worn by Sacra was made by the dwarf master. Not only was it engraved with a large number of defensive magic patterns, but it also used an eighth-level earth magic core to set up an earth shield, which could resist and weaken the seventh-level armor.
The following magic attacks, if all defenses are activated, can withstand the full blow of the Golden Swordsman.
Those two two-handed swords are not ordinary. They are made entirely of fine gold and are extremely sharp. It can be as easy to cut down ordinary seventh- and eighth-level monsters as it is to chop melons and vegetables.
The golden helmet is not simple. It is also produced by the dwarf master. It is called the Helmet of Disruption. It can release spiritual magic and interfere with the magician's use of mental power to communicate with magic elements, thereby making the magician's magic ineffective and even causing magic backlash.
It is equally effective on warriors. It is a nightmare for magicians and warriors. It is precisely because of this that the Helm of Disruption is rated as the top equipment.
As for that sturdy monster, it is a level six monster, the Shadow Cheetah. Not only is it extremely fast, it can also release dark magic. It is definitely a good mount.
Of course, among the audience present, there were also people with sharp eyes and extensive knowledge. They could see the details of the equipment on Sacra's body at a glance, and angrily accused Sacra of his shamelessness.
