After hearing Nan Tong's suggestion, Lin Ke just nodded slightly.
Of course, Lin Ke knew very well that Nan Tong had other purposes for this.
After all, when it comes to magic, Nan Tong is the most authoritative person.
In Holy Egypt, and even in the entire continent, Nan Tong is almost one of the best.
Not only that, Lin Ke also realized that Nan Tong had his own arrangements, so he immediately expressed his agreement.
After getting Lin Ke's consent, Nan Tong immediately raised his voice.
"His Majesty the Holy Pharaoh has agreed to Saul's challenge!"
"Magician, challenge the great magician!"
As soon as Nan Tong finished speaking, the rest of the people on the field cheered.
"Oh Gods! Are we going to witness history today!?"
"Is it possible that Saul can actually defeat that young man? I'm so excited!"
"A magician challenging a great magician, this has never happened before!"
"If Saul wins, the history of the Holy Egyptian Magicians will be filled with another wonderful story!"
At this moment, most people began to cheer for Saul.
As long as he can win, the history of the Holy Egyptian Magicians will be changed because of him.
"Please come forward and shake hands."
"Today's challenge may change the history of the Holy Egyptian Magicians."
"Please greet each other and express your respect to each other."
"Then the competition can begin."
After saying this, Nan Tong smiled at Saul.
When Saul heard this, he felt his heart beating like a drum and his breathing became rapid.
This is exactly what he wants!
Saul knew very well that the moment the young man came into contact with him yesterday, he felt the revival of his magic power in his body.
In other words, the magic power stolen by the other party will return to Saul's body when the other party comes into contact with Saul.
When Saul heard Nan Tong's words and saw Nan Tong's smile, Saul felt that Nan Tong seemed to have seen through this.
After all, in the duel between magicians, there has never been a step that requires the two to shake hands to express respect.
"Nantong...Lord Nantong!"
"Your Majesty the Holy Pharaoh's time is precious. How about letting Saul and I start the battle right away?"
"I feel uneasy for keeping His Majesty the Holy Pharaoh waiting for too long."
Without waiting for Nan Tong's response, Lin Ke raised his hand.
"No problem."
"I will obey Master Nantong."
"Let's get started now."
As soon as Lin Ke finished speaking, the young man's expression became slightly distorted.
Nan Tong then signaled the two men to come to him, and Saul immediately took two steps at a time and came to him.
As for the young man, he was sweating profusely. He looked at Saul and forced a very forced smile on his face.
"Okay, please shake hands."
Saul looked at the young man and held out his hand expressionlessly.
The muscles on the young man's face began to twitch, but he could only obey Nan Tong's "orders" tremblingly.
At the moment they held hands, Nan Tong narrowed his eyes slightly.
"In this competition, we will all be witnesses to history."
"Whether Saul wins or not, this battle will be recorded in the annals of the Holy Egyptian Magicians."
"Please both of you, please give it your all."
"Of course, as the highest official in charge of the Holy Egyptian Ministry of Magic, I will also be on hand to provide protection and prevent fatal spells from injuring anyone."
"Do you two understand?"
During the time Nan Tong was speaking, the young man's expression became more and more distorted.
And there was even a slight halo of magic in Saul's eyes.
The magical power that originally belonged to Saul was slowly flowing back into his body.
"Okay, please allow this 'gifted' great magician to speak first."
"Do you have any words of blessing for Saul, who challenged a higher level opponent?"
Nan Tong had just finished speaking when the young man spoke up: "May you have a successful start, Saul."
As soon as these words were spoken, there was a moment of silence.
Nan Tong deliberately hesitated for a moment before asking, "Is there nothing left?"
The young man nodded his head several times quickly: "No more, sir."
Nan Tong smiled and said, "Very good."
"So, does Saul, the other 'gifted' boy, have any words for his opponent?"
Saul looked at Nan Tong's slow pace and became more certain that the chief magician of Holy Egypt must have noticed something.
So he first pretended to be thinking.
"There are so many things I want to say, but I don't know how to start."
"First of all, I would like to thank Master Nantong for bringing me to Holy Egypt, giving me the opportunity to meet so many outstanding magicians..."
“…I hadn’t come to Cairo without even knowing there was such a place in the world…”
"...I came to Holy Egypt not only for myself, but also because of my friend who died tragically in Jerusalem. It was from that time that I realized that the empire was not what I imagined..."
Saul told almost the entire story of his arrival in Holy Egypt, and none of the people on the sidelines remained unmoved as they listened to his story.
Some people even began to gently wipe away the tears from the corners of their eyes.
"He's just a young man, but his life has been so rough!"
"We actually treated this hard-working young man with such cold words before. Damn us..."
"How is he a Hebrew, and how is he a heretic?"
"He is our friend! A friend of Holy Egypt!"
As Saul spoke, he even began to shed tears.
The young man who was holding Saul's hands was already soaked all over. His nostrils contracted more and more frequently, and he even began to tremble and slightly loosened his clenched hands.
But Saul simply held the other person's palm tightly again and again.
"...So! Now, I have this opportunity, and I have to thank you!"
"It is an honor for the younger generation to be able to fight against a 'genius' like you!"
"Let today's challenge be recorded in the history of magicians!"
As soon as Saul finished speaking, the other party quickly let go of his hand.
The young man looked at Saul, and there was a hint of fear in his eyes.
"He let go of Saul's hand before he even finished speaking?"
"How disrespectful! Relying on your status as a genius and senior, how dare you do this in front of Master Nan Tong?"
The young man ignored what the people around him said. He just took a few steps back and glanced at Nan Tong.
Obviously, he seemed to have noticed something.
"It seems our 'genius' can't wait any longer."
"Okay, I declare!"
"This cross-level challenge has officially begun!"
After saying this, the young man just looked at Saul viciously.
"Come on, boy."
"I won't show mercy."
