【Location: Tunisia, National Royal Knights Academy, Training Ground】

Joseph Williams is wielding a rapier on the training ground.

This was a young man with cheeks as sharp as a knife. Every time he swung the wooden stick, it seemed as if it was accompanied by a strong wind.

Suddenly a fallen leaf flew past him.

When the wooden stick was thrust out, the biting cold wind it brought with it instantly cut the leaf into two identical pieces in the middle.

Joseph picked up one of the leaves.

Because the thickness was cut in half, the leaf had a hazy, translucent feel under the sunlight.

Using a blunt wooden sword to split the leaf in two, this skill was truly amazing among young people of the same generation.

Joseph's lips curled up into a smile.

It had been a long time since he had seen anyone his own age who could compete with him.

Even in the Royal Knight Academy, which is full of geniuses, if you want to compete with him, you have to be at least one or two years older than him.

Suddenly, he heard hurried footsteps.

He did not look back, but slowly retracted the wooden sword in his hand. Suddenly, the wooden sword drew an arc of light in front of him.

A wall of wind formed around him, instantly blowing away the surrounding dust.

Joseph looked at the student behind him calmly: "Ann, this is a school, don't run and jump around in the public area."

An glanced at the sword marks on the ground, a trace of envy flashed in his eyes, and then he came to his senses in an instant and shouted:

"Oh no, Brother Joseph, someone is coming to our school to mess things up."

Joseph slowly raised his head and said, "What's the matter?"

An said honestly, "They are students from St. Louis College in the Enser Empire. They sparred with us and got tough. Now students of the same grade can hardly stop them!"

Joseph thought for a moment and said, "By the way, the three-nation summit has already been held!"

The three-nation summit refers to the Unther Empire, the Tunisian Republic, and the Amn Empire.

It was supposed to be a meeting between the two countries.

But for some reason, the Amn Empire strongly requested to participate in this meeting.

Finally, the two countries discussed it and thought that since they were discussing talent exchange and business matters, it would be nice for the Amn Empire to participate, so they chose to agree.

Joseph had heard about this from his father, but he didn't care much about it.

After all, these things are still very far away for him.

Now he just wants to hone himself so that when the sword is unsheathed, he will be invincible.

As for exchange meetings and the like.

If nothing troublesome happens, he will pretend he knows nothing and continue to practice.

If he was at a disadvantage in a competition with other academies, he wouldn't mind testing the strength of his opponents.

After all, no matter what, he is a member of the National Royal Knight Academy.

He looked at An with a sharp gaze, which was so sharp that An subconsciously shrank his neck.

Joseph said, "Are they playing any shady tricks?"

An shook his head and said, "No, it was just a normal exchange. We just suspect that they may have brought their graduates to participate in the exchange."

Joseph snorted coldly: "The Enser Empire and us had serious conflicts in the early years. A few days ago, the two countries reached a cooperation, and finally there was a chance to ease the conflict."

"Everyone says that our Tunisian nobles are too arrogant, but don't forget that the guys from the land of Enser are only more arrogant than us."

"Otherwise, we won't be able to cultivate the world's strongest person like the Emperor."

An said unconvincedly:

"The Emperor may not be the strongest among the stars."

Joseph smiled: "When you say this, what is the difference between him and the strongest?"

Ann sighed and said:

"Can't you just not expose this? Do you know what this means?"

"It means that our peers in Tunisia are not as talented as those in Enser."

Joseph shook his head and said:

"It doesn't matter. They are all the same under my sword."

An lowered his head cryptically, revealing a hint of a smile: "The professional level of the people who messed up the place this time is exemplary."

Joseph frowned when he heard this.

model?

The professional level is so high! How many years have I not seen a monster of this level in school? The training system of the Royal Knight Academy is 3 years longer than Enser, but in 10 years, there is not a single student who can break through the model in the school.

The gap between a model and something below the model is like the gap between a stream and a river.

but……

Joseph showed an excited smile:

"Isn't this better? It's a rare blessing to be able to fight with the most outstanding genius in the human kingdom today!"

After saying that, he threw the wooden sword in his hand out instantly.

The blood energy flashing on the sword was so rich that it instantly pierced into a target.

If someone looks carefully at the target, they will find that it is a target specially carved to look like a troll.

At this moment, the aura of protective magic wrapped around the target gradually dissipated, and a wooden sword unexpectedly pierced into the head of the troll target.

"If I can't even defeat people my own age, how can I challenge those extremely difficult to kill trolls?"

As he spoke, he strode towards the venue where students from the two countries were competing.

…

At the same time, on the other side, Alice walked down from the field.

With a crazy smile on her face, she said to Louis, "Those students at the Royal Knight Academy are really good, not much worse than us."

"Didn't you make an appointment with Beatrice to make a quick decision?"

"Aren't you going to go up and help clear the people on the other side?"

Louis shook his head and said, "We've only just started. The tough guys haven't come out yet. Going up there would be a waste of time and might affect the speed of the push later."

Alice bared her teeth slightly.

Louis is such a bold guy!

Does this mean you don't take the other party's students seriously at all?

No, obviously not.

She has known this guy for a while. He is not an arrogant person. On the contrary, he is a down-to-earth person.

The fact that he said this only showed that he was not in the mood to play around with these students right now.

Alice showed a cruel smile.

These students are crying out now, but I'm afraid they don't realize what they will face next.

Unlike me who enjoys fighting, this kid Louis probably just wants to knock down the guy behind you.

She just went down and beat up a group of students, and left the arena only after she felt much better.

After all, we still need to give other students the opportunity to show themselves.

She restrained her crazy emotions a little and said with some emotion:

"Enser and Tunisia haven't had a good exchange for many years."

Louis glanced at her and said:

"About 20 to 30 years. After all, the conflict between the two sides was so serious that the Tower of Eternal Daylight was needed to serve as a buffer zone."

The relationship between the Unther Empire and Tunisia is quite strange.

Especially the war between Tunisia and the troll tribe a few years ago once caused great distress to the Unther Empire.

After the Troll War began, there were two situations that were very unfavorable to Unther.

At the beginning of the Troll War, the outside world generally believed that with Tunisia's strength, it would be easy to defeat the Troll tribe.

After all, it is one of the three major countries in the world.

Once Tunisia wins a great victory and is no longer troubled by the Troll War, the Unther Empire will have to consider in the next six months whether they will be so idle as to turn their attention to the Tower of Eternal Day.

A country that has just tasted the sweet fruits of victory in war is a war machine that may explode at any time.

National interests are likely to push Tunisia to the other extreme.

Louis also understood this.

Just look at the Paradox players and you will know.

"Why are you called a war criminal if you didn't lose?"

If the situation develops to this point, Enser, which borders Tunisia, will probably be beaten up for no reason.

In fact, even Tunisia's decision-makers think so, and many people have even figured out how to control the Giant Plains that has become a puppet land.

At the beginning, Tunisia only dispatched the second-line legion mixed with a large number of mercenaries, and marched towards the Troll Plains in four groups.

However, with the tenacious resistance of the troll tribe, the Tunisian Army, which had been unable to defeat the enemy for a long time, was forced to retreat temporarily.

After this battle, all countries were in an uproar.

All of a sudden, various forces gathered together to make Tunisia bleed for a long time.

The first to stand unreservedly for the Troll Tribe was the Hidden Forest.

Ever since Tunisia obtained the semi-artifact from the Hidden Forest, the two countries have almost stopped having any contact with each other.

So not long after, the Hidden Forest issued a statement to the public, strongly condemning the Troll Tribe for hijacking the war weapons that the Hidden Forest was preparing to transport and sell.

The Troll Tribe claimed responsibility for the incident.

As for why the Secret Forest has not received any orders for arms exports recently, but still insisted on bringing its weapons to the war-torn Giant Plains...

All I can say is that those who understand will understand, and those who don’t understand should not talk nonsense.

Armed with new equipment from the Hidden Forest, the troll tribe launched an attack without hesitation.

Because of the involvement of many mercenaries, the already lax legion was defeated in the Gugor Grassland east of the Troll Plains and was forced to withdraw.

Then the Dead Bird Legion mutinied. Even though the flames were quickly put out by Prime Minister Duke, it still exposed Tunisia's serious internal problems at the time.

Louis couldn't help but sigh:

"Later, many countries came to support the Troll Tribe. It was obvious that they were planning to give the Trolls a beating when they were down."

"Tunisia, with such serious internal problems, has difficulty protecting itself under normal circumstances. It is not so easy to defeat the troll tribe that is strongly supported by a hostile country."

Just think about the conflict between Da Mao and Er Mao in the previous life.

Without using the ultimate weapon, even Damao would be in great pain if he wanted to defeat Ermao, who was supported by an organization beginning with the word "North".

In addition, Tunisia was unwilling to open up "free trade" channels to countries led by the Secret Forest and the Empire of Amn. For a time, Tunisia fell into unprecedented diplomatic isolation.

It can be said that if the Enther Empire had not understood the principle of "the lips and teeth are cold", and Beatrice had not advocated not interrupting trade with Tunisia, they would have been even more miserable.

"I heard that at the end of last year, Tunisia was supposed to hold a trade meeting with the 12 northern countries, but in the end they could only participate remotely using communication crystals. It seems that they are really not having a good time."

Louis nodded: "It's not that the Tunisian head of state doesn't want to participate, but the 12 northern countries hope that Tunisia can participate online."

“They are afraid that if Tunisia runs into huge problems or even collapses, it might bring disaster to them.”

Alice was helpless.

He doesn't like this kind of political stuff.

Why are you talking nonsense? Just answer her three questions:

"Who are the enemies? Where are they? How many do we need to kill?"

That's enough.

But even if she didn't want to pay attention, she was forced to learn some information from her family.

It’s not that her family of warmongers has sympathy for Tunisia, but her husband Deng suspects that Tunisia will be desperate and launch a full-scale war.

It can be seen how pessimistic all parties were about Tunisia's prospects at that time.

As a result, the situation was developing in another more dangerous direction.

That’s right, the second possibility is that Tunisia suffers a major defeat.

This may be even more difficult for the Unther Empire to accept.

Based on the principle of "lips and teeth are interdependent" and the positions of the three major human kingdoms, when the situation develops to this point, the Enther Empire will have to provide formal assistance to Tunisia whether it wants to or not.

At that point, Louis and the others would no longer be able to just stand by and watch.

Future Diary has already shown the consequences of allowing this outcome to develop.

The unprecedentedly expanding troll tribe will directly threaten the border of Unther.

What’s even more terrifying is that in the future, when Tunisia was about to perish, it directly launched the country’s most powerful large-scale weapon [Marrow Sky Strike].

22 rounds of [Marrow Sky Strike] mercilessly attacked the imperial capitals of surrounding countries and the center of the troll tribe.

Especially the capital of the Secret Forest, which was hit by 10 [Marrow Sky Strike] directly. Even with the intervention of the demigod, it still couldn't be stopped, and the entire capital was wiped off the map.

The huge amount of pollution has turned the area around the royal capital into a desolate place.

Ense didn't do anything, but he was hit for no reason.

In the end, it was Emperor Lao Deng who stood up and slapped the attack away.

This incident is recorded in the [Burning World IF Line] and is considered one of the impacts of the destruction of Tunisia.

You never know what a powerful country will do when it is on the verge of extinction.

Not to mention, if Tunisia were really gone, humanity’s status on the continent would decline further.

Just look at the High Forest and the Hidden Woods.

When the Elven Kingdom was still the hegemon of the Star Continent, how many slave traders dared to kidnap elves and sell them? How many princes and nobles dared to keep elves at home as heirlooms and feed them day and night? It is said that a bugbear even opened an elf ranch, using the power of magic to make more than 20 elves in captivity in the ranch pregnant for 50 years.

Relying on this set of operations, a group of descendants who are proficient in magic were cultivated.

Elf?

Fast forward to the time when goblins are also spirits!

How many people would dare to do such a thing in the most glorious era of the Elf Kingdom? This is why he must come to the Royal Knights Academy.

There was a lot of hustle and bustle below at this time.

The students of the Royal Knights Academy all looked unhappy.

There's no way, this scene is really embarrassing.

This group of geniuses represented by Youdu have been severely hit by Alice and Louis during this period.

It can be said that they are crazier than anyone else during training.

At this moment, Youdu once again used his exquisite skills to perform a vibrating sword attack.

The Tunisian student showed a bitter smile on his face as he was amazed at Youdu's balance and control.

"I give up."

Suddenly, there was a commotion among the students gathered nearby.

Louis subconsciously raised his head and saw several young men who were obviously different from other students in terms of threat, walking towards him.

Alice smiled and said:

"Leave a few for me later, don't eat them all by yourself."

Louis hit Alice on the forehead with his scabbard:

"If you don't know how to make dirty jokes, don't do it. Speak politely."

But he still had a happy smile on his face:

"Hurry up and finish the work. Beatrice is still waiting for me to accompany her."
