Henki sheathed his greatsword and leisurely left the dueling arena. At that mont, two other Imperial Guard soldiers lay paralyzed in their cockpits, especially the one who had almost been bisected, now seeing darkness sweep before his eyes, even the instinct to operate his armor was nearly forgotten.
"You were right, Anzong," the Emperor said from the stands.
"Yes, I have confidence in my soldiers," Anzong replied.
"However, in my view, everything he has done is based on that strange alloy greatsword of his. Without the destructive power of that alloy greatsword against energy and armor, he would have probably lost long ago," the Emperor comnted.
"Being able to reasonably use one’s own advantage is a quality that any warrior must possess. I think this is quite normal. Moreover, with Henki’s judgnt, even if this new type of alloy greatsword becos widespread in the army, I still believe very few people will be his match, after all, he is still inexperienced," Anzong stated.
Spread of the alloy greatsword.
The Emperor essentially only heard this sentence; yes, this was exactly what he wanted. Once the alloy greatsword beca widespread, he would have an absolute advantage in the fight against the Prophet’s faction! And as long as he eliminated the Prophet’s faction, there would be no other contenders in this entire Plane! The soldiers of The Forgotten Ones were not just deadly warriors to other beings of this Plane but also harbingers of death! If they did encounter so peculiar enemies they couldn’t handle, they still had the crystal beam as their ace in the hole! This type of beam had no effect on The Forgotten Ones themselves, but it was lethal to any life in the entire Plane, even the entire multiverse!
"However, after this battle, I estimate, any warrior standing before Henki will hardly dare to claim they can win, right?" the Emperor said indifferently.
"Then, Your Majesty, what do you think of this young man Henki?" Anzong suddenly asked.
"Are you asking my opinion on this child, or are you asking about my view of the La Sang Family?" the Emperor counter-asked.
"Your Majesty sees clearly. I don’t care about the actions of any family. I indeed just feel that this child is a talent—a bit peculiar in character, sure, but so special talents are still very excellent for Your Majesty," Anzong said.
"I know you have always been neutral, so I can tell you that I only have one standard in judging a person: whether or not he is a talent. If he is, I can give him everything he desires. But if he is all show and no substance, I will imdiately strip everything from him. That applies to both individuals and families," the Emperor’s voice was neither loud nor soft, but many heard it.
These words even reached the ears of the La Sang Family within twenty minutes. Upon hearing this, the Family elders were overjoyed; it ant the Emperor was considering giving their family a chance to rise! For this reason, they specifically summoned La Sang back to the family and gave him detailed instructions. They had to ensure that this matter went smoothly and that there were absolutely no mistakes.
In fact, La Sang had encountered several incidents lately. Thieves had suddenly increased around him, and there were even so forceful attacks. The Family was well aware that both thieves and attackers wanted the recipe for the new type of alloy, a pity that La Sang did not have this formula. So there was a concern that so might target Henki with crooked ideas, thinking they could get the formula from Henki, or even crazily consider killing Henki directly!
At first, the Family indeed worried greatly about such matters.
But after Henki defeated ten n on his own, that worry imdiately lessened significantly. Then, when Henki alone erged victorious against a siege by three elite Imperial Guard soldiers, even killing one of them in return, all worries vanished. His level of strength was clearly not the standard that ordinary warriors could contend with.
Now, what they really needed to worry about was whether the naïve Henki could be deceived by others.
The afternoon battles were basically without suspense, thanks to the terrifying performance during the lunch break, all battles related to the eighth regint ended in default. Thus, the eighth regint uneventfully beca the champion of this internal regint contest.
Despite so dissatisfaction with this outco, Group Leader Anzong admitted that Henki had indeed brought too much pressure to the other warriors this ti. It was one thing for a person to fight ten, but for him to fight against three elite Imperial Guard soldiers and even to turn the tables and kill one, such a record was truly hard not to inspire fear.
Especially for The Forgotten Ones, their extre admiration for powerhouses led them to lose confidence when facing Henki.
Extre admiration for a superior warrior often also ans extre fear of them. The more you admire him, the more you fear him. Thus, whenever Henki was involved in a contest, the others would simply default.
And one can imagine that the individual matches starting tomorrow will likely be the sa.
Henki’s champion position could even be reserved today. So warriors even joked, saying they should just crown Henki as the champion and prevent him from participating further, then the rest could decide the first and second place.
