Chapter 335 Sorry... I messed up
Elder Rhine arrived just in time at the Lionheart Knights' encampment, preventing an impending duel and greatly disappointing the many knights who were waiting to watch the spectacle.
"Your Highnesses, we are about to begin our attack on the Orcs. During this time, as the commander-in-chief of the Riga defense zone, I cannot tolerate our own people engaging in duels dueling for personal grudges." Elder Rhine's words were so righteous that they left no room for argument.
But Qin Mo had no intention of letting it go so easily. He turned to Rhine without fear and said firmly, "Your Excellency Rhine, this concerns my father's reputation. I think you have handled this matter unfairly today."
"Buzz...buzz..." The surrounding scene immediately spiraled out of control. Some glared angrily at Qin Mo, some secretly gloated, and of course, some expressed concern about Qin Mo's audacity.
The Temple's doctrine places great emphasis on "justice and dedication." For Qin Mo to accuse a Temple elder of injustice in front of so many people was an act of suicidal behavior in the eyes of the Western Continent people.
Elder Rhine's face twitched uncontrollably twice, a situation that should not occur in a Saint-level expert, clearly indicating that he was extremely angry.
"Your Highness Qin Mo, you may question my impartiality, but as the supreme commander of the Riga defense zone, I have the authority to issue temporary decrees during wartime. Throughout the entire war, duels are not permitted in my defense zone. Do you understand?"
Qin Mo sensed Elder Ryan's anger, but his anger was also growing stronger. The two stared at each other, and the situation in the arena became extremely tense.
“Lord Rhine, Qin Mo is a cultivator belonging to my inner palace. He is not under your command, so your temporary decree is invalid for him.”
A figure in a pure white gauze dress appeared outside the crowd. Everyone bowed and stepped back, making way for Saint Heatherine to enter the arena.
"Heatherine, do you want our own warriors to kill each other? Do you want our people to die not at the hands of the orcs, but by the swords of their own people?" Faced with Saint Heatherine, Rhine could not continue to be forceful and had to appeal to her emotions.
“This matter is actually easy to resolve. Since Prince William made inappropriate remarks, he should apologize!” Saint Heather gave Qin Mo a deep look before immediately looking away.
"Prince William, are you willing to apologize for your inappropriate words?" Elder Rhine sighed and had no choice but to back down, intending to let Prince William apologize casually.
"I would rather duel than apologize for my outspoken words and actions; that would be a disgrace to me." Prince William was unmoved by Elder Rhine's hint. He had already become a laughingstock in front of the leaders of various knightly orders at the meeting, and if he were to bow down to ordinary warriors, his reputation, which he had built up over the years, would be completely destroyed.
"You... alright! For the sake of the upcoming war, I will allow you to fight, but neither of you can use weapons. You must stop immediately once a winner is determined. What do you think, Princess Heatherine?"
“I think it’s a good idea!” Heatherine sneered inwardly and agreed.
Saint Heather's answer led many to believe that she was prioritizing the greater good over Qin Mo's interests, since the use of weapons and relying solely on hand-to-hand combat was not permitted, which seemed to benefit Prince William.
The priests and knights of the Temple follow two different training paths. The former focus on using the power of the Holy Spirit to fight enemies, while the latter focus on using the power of the Holy Spirit to strengthen their own bodies. Prince William had trained in the Knights' Hall of the Temple and even became a Knight Commander a few years ago. Qin Mo's slender physique was clearly no match for the strong Prince William.
The crowd quickly made way for a large open space, and the two men walked onto the open space and stood facing each other.
Qin Mo was wearing his handsome robes, while Prince William was wearing knight's armor. This was obviously unfair, but since the two big shots on the sidelines didn't say anything, everyone had no choice but to ignore it.
Prince William began to radiate light, and even in the sunlight, his intense holy light was dazzling, causing those around him to gasp in amazement.
Qin Mo remained expressionless, quietly watching Prince William build up his aura. When he felt that Prince William's aura had reached its limit, he casually lifted his leg and disappeared from the spot.
Prince William was a seasoned veteran. When Qin Mo suddenly moved, he reacted immediately. So when Qin Mo appeared in front of him, Prince William threw a punch at the perfect moment.
But Prince William suddenly felt starlight appear around him, and then suddenly disappear. His eyes narrowed. "How can there be starlight in broad daylight?"
Before Prince William could even process the origin of the starlight, he felt the Holy Spirit power within him suddenly become sluggish, slowing his movements. This bizarre situation terrified him.
Qin Mo dodged Prince William's fist by sidestepping, then raised her knee and slammed it into William's groin. A surge of powerful energy erupted, causing Prince William to let out a heart-wrenching roar.
"Aww..."
The Knights' Hall's techniques are indeed very powerful, making the knights' bodies as hard as iron. However, there is a certain part that cannot be trained. If that part were to be trained to be as hard as iron... it would take away a lot of the joys of life.
Qin Mo's body had been tempered by Little Nirvana Flame's black light every day, making it flexible and adaptable. Her knees were particularly hard, directly hitting Prince William's softest spot, and the consequences were predictable.
Everyone watching, regardless of their strength or gender, clenched their legs tightly, a chill running down their groin. Their gazes towards Qin Mo became strange and filled with fear.
