Faced with Princess Anna's doubts, Zhang Lingyun didn't take it to heart at all. After all, no one would use moral integrity as the criterion in a real battle.

Unless that person has the strength to defy everything, he will abide by the unrealistic rules and regulations.

"Oh!? Then what do you think the outcome of the battle between us will be?"

Anna never thought that such a backward and narrow country could have such a young man with extremely clear thinking and logic. She couldn't help but become interested in the young man in front of her and wanted to know his next plan.

"What if the process is irrelevant and the result is a draw?"

"Are you afraid of losing badly, or are you too confident? You actually think you can defeat my Holy Knights!?"

Anna looked at the young man's confident expression, and felt a little shaken in her heart, as she was a little unsure of the other person's true strength.

Although the sneak attack just now was not successful, the majestic momentum cannot be ignored. In addition, several of our own people are now being supported, which all proves the extraordinaryness of these oriental youths.

Although Anna and other children of God who believe in the equality of all living things have not gained eternal life and cannot rely on time to continuously improve themselves, the inheritance of the Paladin is no child's play!

In the prosperous land of Eagle Country, knight culture is very prosperous. To become a brave and upright knight to protect the weak is the childhood dream of every boy on the continent.

Most of the young and beautiful girls dream of meeting a handsome and noble knight and continuing a romantic and beautiful love story, which further promotes the development trend of knights.

Becoming a knight requires not only talent and hard work, but also courage and rock-solid faith.

Qualified children begin to receive knight training at the age of seven, and those who pass the examination at the age of twenty-one will be canonized as glorious knights.

Paladins are the best among many outstanding ones. Their fighting ability is comparable to that of several outstanding knights. When fighting against ordinary people, they can even achieve the power of one against a hundred.

The life of a knight is full of glory and danger. There are countless legendary stories about them, but it is also a very dangerous choice.

The disability mortality rate during knight training is as high as 50%, and the passing rate of the final assessment is only 20%. Even if all become glorious paladins, they will still face various dangers and choices.

"It's not your fault that you don't understand the immortal cultivators, but it's not difficult to defeat you!"

Zhang Lingyun has always released the power of spiritual consciousness all over his body, although due to the cultivation techniques and many reasons, he cannot make an accurate judgment on the cultivation of several people.

But he always felt confident in his heart. In such an embarrassing situation, Zhang Lingyun decided to trust his intuition.

"How dare you despise me. The dignity of a knight must be washed away with blood. As a paladin, I invite you to a duel!"

In the Eagle Country, anyone can challenge others. A competition is a martial arts competition between friends, while a duel is a life-and-death battle caused by conflicts of interest and conflict!

A challenge issued as a knight cannot be refused under reasonable circumstances, otherwise he will be regarded as a coward by all knights and suffer the ridicule of everyone.

In places where entertainment items are scarce, fighting is a highly entertaining activity, and it is a very popular sport among nobles and knights.

A powerful knight can make a certain agreement under the witness of a notary. The winner will have the right to control the spoils at will, and can also become famous and gain the favor of beauties, reputation, status, wealth, etc.

"I don't mean to look down on you, but the duel is exactly what I want!"

Hearing such a solemn battle message, Zhang Lingyun was almost stunned on the spot. He admired the courage of the woman in front of him to dare to challenge without any sense.

Out of curiosity about the Paladin, and with the current model that is so intimidating, Zhang Lingyun is happy to use Princess Anna to experience the fighting style of the Paladin!

"Arrogant young man, let the youngest Holy Knight teach you how to behave respectfully and humbly!"

The Holy Knight, who was surrounded by Zhang Lingyun's water polo, seemed to have seen the result and started shouting with great excitement.

The noise of their companions attracted several people who were fighting. The three paladins were inspired by blood and excitement.

The energy around him was overflowing crazily, and the attacks in his hands became more and more fierce, causing Zhang Lingxiao and others to fall into a bitter battle.

"Young man, it's too late to regret now, lest you become a useless person in a while. If you accidentally lose your life, it won't be worth it!"

Seeing the young man looking carefree and content, Anna felt extremely hurt, and she secretly determined in her heart that only one person could leave standing today!

"Please~!"

In order to express his respect for Princess Anna, Zhang Lingyun lightly twisted his fingers and took out the spirit stone sword entrusted to You Fang to make from the storage ring.

The light cyan three-foot-long sword was extremely thin, and the hilt was engraved with a golden dragon carving. Zhang Lingyun slowly turned his wrist, and the green sword also swung out cold light, looking extremely majestic.

"It's been a long time since I've seen the blood raining freely, so I'm still looking forward to it!"

Seeing that the other party showed no remorse, Anna gripped the long sword tightly and waved her arm, making a cross on her chest, then suddenly released the energy around her body and stabbed Zhang Lingyun in front of his face quickly.

While Anna was attacking, she seemed to have seen the scene of the boy's flesh and blood flying everywhere, and the corners of her mouth were slightly raised unconsciously.

Although he had been on guard for a long time, the gap in combat experience still made Zhang Lingyun a little struggling, and his figure looked a little embarrassed as he dodged extremely quickly.

Seeing that the young man easily dodged the sword that she was sure to win, the proud smile on Anna's face disappeared instantly, replaced by a determined look of quick victory.

Anna stepped hard on the ground with her legs to stop the figure that was flying out, twisted her soft waist to turn her whole body around, and swung the long sword in her hand to slash down at the young man angrily.

"Shua...!"

Feeling the sharp wind-breaking sword energy in front of him, Zhang Lingyun's face was extremely solemn. If you take away the bonus of the cultivation realm and these spells.

With the strength of the princess in front of me, it would be difficult for me to go back and forth ten times in her hands.

Faced with Anna's sensitive attack, Zhang Lingyun chose to avoid the edge temporarily, turned his body slightly and quickly retreated, cleverly avoiding the opponent's tentative attack.

"Sure enough!"

After regaining safety, Zhang Lingyun, in line with the principle of not being disrespectful in return, suddenly released his spiritual power, rushed to Anna's side with the spiritual stone sword in his hand, and swung it hard at her neck.

"Shua...!"

The long sword, as thin and sharp as a willow leaf, cut through the void and made the sound of wind whistles. Anna felt the cold air coming from around her, and immediately raised the long sword in her hand to block the opponent's attack head-on.

"clang...…,"

The two sharp blades containing majestic power collided with each other, sparks scattered in all directions, and the crisp impact sound spread.

It was the first time he fought against such a powerful person. Zhang Lingyun, who did not exert all his strength, was directly shocked by the powerful sword energy released by Anna. He took several steps back before completely removing it.

Compared with Zhang Lingyun's obvious weakness, Anna seemed calm and steady, and her figure only took half a step back to stabilize.

Come down.

"Your Royal Highness, the Holy Knights are proud of you!"

Seeing that Zhang Lingyun was at a disadvantage, the besieged paladins immediately cheered happily, ignoring their partners who were still fighting hard to ask whether they needed support to get out of trouble earlier.

The paladin, whose eyes were full of teasing, already regarded the boy as a rat in a cage. No matter how hard he struggled, there was absolutely no way he could escape from the hands of the powerful princess.

"It's a pity that such a good weapon fell into the hands of a loser!"

Anna's eyes were full of regret, and she stared closely at the blue sword in Zhang Lingyun's hand.

He shook his head slightly in amazement, and then a murderous intent flashed in his eyes, and a bloodthirsty smile appeared at the corner of his mouth unconsciously.

Anna, with cold eyes, took a long breath, shook off her slightly sore hand, lowered her head slightly, and slowly raised the sword in her hand, regardless of the fact that she was in a duel.

Looking at Anna who was behaving strangely, Zhang Lingyun frowned and kept thinking about why the other party was doing this and whether he should take the opportunity to make a sneak attack.

"Yo, yo, are you preparing for a big move!?"

Zhang Lingyun, who was staring at his opponent with a tangled face, gradually felt uneasy in his heart. It wasn't until he noticed the difference in the spiritual energy fluctuations between the world and the surrounding world that his frown slowly relaxed.

Zhang Lingyun, who held the spirit stone sword tightly in his hand, chose the latter between stepping forward to check and wait for an opportunity to attack, or using the talisman to test.

Suddenly releasing a ray of spiritual consciousness, he pinched the water ball talisman that drove the hidden form of the void, and attacked towards the location of Princess Anna.

"You are not worthy of my all-out effort!"

Anna, whose face became increasingly solemn, noticed something strange around her, and involuntarily clenched the sword in her hand. The majestic energy around her body burst out crazily, and the light emitted from the sword became more and more intense.

"Shua, shua...,"

Anna suddenly swung her sword into the void, and the surging energy turned into sword energy, which was released one after another and headed towards the water ball.

"Bang...,"

The ferocious sword energy was like a hot flame. The moment it collided with the water ball, two completely different energies erupted into terrifying shock waves.

As several fierce sword energy struck one after another, the water ball that made the Paladin feel filled with grief and anger was instantly evaporated into mist and dissipated.

The power of the sword energy that had not been eliminated continued to attack Zhang Lingyun's direction one after another.

Zhang Lingyun, who had already had a premonition and was on guard, immediately activated the amulet on his chest. In the blink of an eye, a translucent protective barrier containing pure spiritual power appeared.

"Ka, ka...,"

One after another, the surging sword energy hit the protective barrier like a heavy hammer. The surging impact made Zhang Lingyun retreat one after another, and subtle cracks appeared on the protective barrier.

Ana, who saw the opportunity and quietly approached, stood firm, a ferocious look appeared on her face, and suddenly swung the sword in her hand, Mou Zu slashed at the cracked protective barrier with all her strength.

"Click...,"

With a sound as clear and crisp as glass breaking, the protective barrier protecting Zhang Lingyun shattered and gradually dissipated between heaven and earth.

"It's a pity that you have such a good skin. Don't worry, I won't let you suffer too much pain!"

How could Anna miss such a good opportunity? She slightly bent her knees and jumped up. Using all the strength from her waist to her arms, she swung the sword in her hand horizontally and then swung it forward, slashing towards the young man's waist and abdomen.

"Although it is an insignificant external possession, it is a pity that it cannot be given to you even with flesh and blood!"

Zhang Lingyun, who had no time to dodge, said something teasing the princess's appearance, and quickly retreated to distance himself from Anna. At the same time, he raised his arm high and held the spiritual stone sword at his side.

"Zila...,"

The two long swords with different offense and defense collided with each other and moved in completely different directions, causing scattered sparks to fly in all directions.

It wasn't until the two of them rushed forward and passed side by side that the slightly chaotic scene calmed down. However, Anna, who had significantly increased her energy output this time, did not show an overwhelming advantage.
