“Of course not.”
Lincon shook his head and added, “In fact, there’s an unwritten rule for the Astonishing World List. High-ranking royal officials arenot allowed on the list.”
“So, is Julius not strong enough to be on the list, or is he not allowed?” Wyatt questioned further.“He’s not allowed on the list, and he’s not qualified either,” Lincoln responded.“That puts my mind at ease.” Wyatt breathed a sigh of relief.
“If the Astonishing World List is accurate, then Prince Logan must be stronger than Julius. As long as he doesn’t underestimatehis opponent, he should be able to secure a stable victory,” Tyrus analyzed. 2
“That may be true, but we should still exercise caution,” Eloise murmured to herself.
She felt a mix of emotions witnessing Logan’s excellence. On one hand, she hoped for his victory to restore the monarchy’sdignity. On the other hand, she harbored concerns.
If Logan were to assume the throne, she worried he might follow in Julius’ footsteps and take action against her son.
After all, her son unconditionally trusted Logan, bordering on dependence. If Logan chose to sever ties, her son would face direconsequences.
Meanwhile, the clash between Dustin and Julius was escalating. Both parties moved with incredible speed.
They were so fast that ordinary soldiers could only vaguely see two blurred figures entwined in combat. Occasionally, thunderousexplosions resonated, generating powerful shockwaves.
“They've been at it for quite a while now. Given the Grand General's prowess, he should have won already. Why has he yet todefeat Prince Logan? “Elijah squinted, quietly observing the unfolding battle.
On the surface, it appeared that Julius was pressing the offensive, forcing Logan into a defensive stance.
Normally, Julius would have defeated his opponent within three minutes with his aggressive approach. However, it had been tenminutes, and the outcome remained uncertain. It was an odd situation.
“Logan is a fellow ultimate gr. ndmaster. Dealing with him is undoubtedly no easy task. Grand General Rhys will need to go allout to win,” Everett commented.
“At this point, going all out is the only option. Grand General Rhys would be in danger should he face defeat.” Shane shook hishead.
“Generals, if Grand General Rhys is defeated, what would be your course of action?” Elijah asked abruptly.
“What else can we do? Naturally, it's to stand by Grand General Rhys till the end,” Everett declared, showing no fear ofimpending death.
“Exactly! As the Grand General's trusted confidants, we should face life and death alongside him,” Shane declared righteously.“Why must both of you be so resolute?” Elijah’s words carried profound meaning.
“The Grand General and we are separate beings. Each individual has the right to survive. Sacrificing ourselves for others seemsunnecessary.novelbin
“What do you mean by that, Sir Valor?” Everett raised an eyebrow.
“It's undeniably the best outcome if Grand General Rhys emerges victorious. But if he doesn’t, we must also be prepared toprotect ourselves,” Elijah whispered.
“Are you suggesting we surrender?” Shane’s expression darkened as he exclaimed.“Wise men adapt to circumstances. Shouldn’t we value our own lives?”Elijah began to persuade them.”
Generals, we’ve worked hard to reach our positions today. There’s still a bright future ahead for us, with endless glory and wealthto revel in. Are you willing to sacrifice all of that here?
“Besides, think about your families and friends if you won’t consider yourselves. If you die, what will happen to your family? Whowill care for them?
“Well...” Everett and Shane exchanged glances, evidently waning in their initial determination.
