Even without Hilude, the Divine Chosen Knight, at Young Master Suli's command, this grand and vast army would crash like a tidal wave, utterly obliterating the opposing side!
In an instant, his mind went blank, completely devoid of resentment.
Hilude had said that his arrogant words were presumptuous and offensive, and now it seems that was not wrong at all.
What right did he have to discuss the situation directly with Young Master Suli? He wasn't even fit to converse with the Commander-in-Chief of Hesse Territory.
If it weren't for the dazzling, shining armor, he could hardly believe how Young Master Suli had developed this far.
Even now, he was deeply shocked, unable to comprehend how a small Border Development Territory could forge such an elite army. He even saw a large number of Half Griffin Knights leading griffins, holding long halberds, kneeling on one knee, arrayed at the forefront of the army.
This scale was even not inferior to Bauhinia Castle!
However, Suli no longer cared about Connor's opinion; the scene below the high platform completely entranced him.
This is every man's dream, standing at the pinnacle of power, commanding thousands of troops, with iron-clad lines in the distance and beauty in his arms nearby.
What man could resist the allure of drunkenly resting on a beauty's lap and waking up to command the world?
So, Suli stepped out from the crowd, loudly proclaiming to the iron-clad mass below: "My soldiers, glory is with you. The Sun Goddess will witness your magnificent endeavors. I shall join you, in triumphant fashion, to celebrate tonight's feast."
"I will also stand beside you forever, to jointly confront the Green Dragon threat. Facing the Green Dragon, fear is not shameful. Because fear is the instinct of creatures, and courage is the song of humanity! I believe we will create more glory and victory together."
"May the Sun Goddess bless us with ultimate victory!"
Below, there was an immediate thunderous cheer from the soldiers.
"May the Sun Goddess bless us with victory!"
"May the Sun Goddess bless us with victory!"
"For glory!"
"For glory!"
"Long live!"
"Long live!"
The army's morale was available, and Suli immediately ordered the territory to spare no expense to reward the army and continue to boost morale.
The Green Dragon had already awakened, and now was the time to generously buy lives from the soldiers.
Isn't money meant to be spent at the blade's edge during times like this?
Upon hearing Suli's arrangement, the soldiers' morale was further heightened, and under the arrangement of each squadron's Knight Commander, they orderly left the castle, leaving behind a large amount of the spoils from this battle.
Commander-in-Chief Knight Oerstein, on the other hand, led the leader of the Knight Order and others across the stone bridge into the castle.
Knight Oerstein's arrogant demeanor was far more serious than Hilude's. At the first sight of Connor, he glared with tiger eyes and demanded, "I heard that Knight Connor thinks our Hesse Territory is nothing but a rabble? The Lion Ring Arena of the territory is bustling, I warmly invite Knight Connor in for a friendly spar."
Knight Connor, seeing Knight Oerstein's intimidating manner, was even more shocked! He remembered witnessing the moment of Knight Connor's advance at the time.
Back then, he was well aware that the momentum of Count Suna was far stronger than that of Knight Oerstein.
But only half a year had passed, and the momentum of Knight Oerstein was now almost on par with the Count, at least at the peak state of a High Tier Champion Knight.
And Knight Connor was just at the peak of an Elite Knight! His relationship with Count Suna was akin to that between Suli and Attendant Harry. Although both Connor and Harry were fairly talented bodyguard candidates, they couldn't compare to the training speed of the nobility!
To send him to battle a Champion Knight whose cultivation speed surpassed even that of Suli and Count Suna would be sending him to his death.
Therefore, Knight Connor immediately broke out in a cold sweat on his back. The opponent was a Champion Knight; in a one-on-one duel, a few moves would be enough to shatter his shield and knock him down.
Though courage is humanity's anthem, fear is also the instinct of living beings!
Under the intimidating gaze of Knight Oerstein, his whole back was wet. He and the knights behind him swallowed nervously, panic-stricken, not knowing how to respond.
Yet at such a moment, no one spoke, and everyone was watching them.
Including Suli, who remained silent and stood aside coldly.
As a Lord, he was supposed to unite all forces and was not suited to personally suppress the arrogance of the Red Night Knight Order and Knight Connor.
But that didn't mean he was a good-natured person, completely indifferent to Knight Connor's arrogant attitude.
In fact, his character could be considered extremely outstanding, holding no grudges overnight, because any grudges would be settled on the spot!
The Green Dragon was threatened, just because it posed a threat to him, he did not even wait for it to awaken, launching an attack proactively.
Under such circumstances, how could he tolerate Knight Connor's bluster before him?
Knight Oerstein's move to suppress his arrogance was perfectly in line with Suli's interests, helping him gain dominant command of this army. Moreover, as Oerstein and Knight Connor were of the same origin and former comrades in arms, their sparring was justified with no one able to find fault in it.
With Knight Connor's constant hesitation to respond, the scene became silent for a while, only the rough breathing of the knights could be heard.
Suli was deeply indifferent to this, understanding that many people had the innate habit of fearing awkward situations and offending others.
But in this kind of political struggle, offending people is inevitable. If the opponent dares to provoke despite the awkwardness, what is there to fear?
