"Bahahahaha…." The expressionless Tang Shaoyang burst out in laughter when he heard the proposal. It was a laughable proposal because he knew well that his force was a lot stronger than the Beast Coven.
The Beast Coven might have a dozen Myth Rank and a few Primordial Rank, but Zara alone was enough to rival a Legend Rank. In addition, Zaneos and Bronson, his spirit army was invincible. That was not just blind confidence because the Dark Tribe was proof of how strong his spirit army was. The Dark Tribe's elite force could not stand a chance against his spirit army.
Alton probably realized that and offered a ridiculous proposal. Aware of the situation, Tang Shaoyang burst out in laughter, and it was more mocking laughter than anything else. The laughter suddenly stopped as he returned to his expressionless face. "First, let me correct you one thing, Old Man. We are not The Tyrant but an Empire, The Empire of Tang! And I am the Emperor of this Empire!"
"Second, what do you take me for, Old Man? A fool? Do you think you can trick me with this bullshit honorable duel? Moreover, you offered me this ridiculous proposal right after your friend killed one of my spirits?"
The temperature suddenly dropped as Allan and Alton sensed a strong aura came from the young man in front of them. The aura was so uncomfortable for him as if the aura was trying to subdue him to submit to the young man. This was the first time Alton felt an aura like this.
"But I can agree with this ridiculous proposal with one condition." Tang Shaoyang suddenly grinned. The frequent change of expression made Alton even more uncomfortable.
Tang Shaoyang then pointed his index finger at Allan. "Let me kill that old man, and then we are even. If you agree with this condition, then I will agree with the duel! If you don't believe me, we can sign a system contract right now."
He was forcing Alton to choose between his friend and his people. As for the duel, he did not mind even if he lost. He had [Seven Souls]. Even if he died in the duel, he would return stronger, and he had nothing to lose.
"What are you afraid of, Alton? Don't tell me you are scared of the force behind him!?" Allan screamed at his friend even though Alton had not said anything. "Don't tell me you want to exchange my life for an illusion?" It was a lie if Allan was not panicking. This was a ridiculous way to die.
"Don't get too excited, Allan." Alton shook his head. "I am not going to sacrifice my friend for the duel. I am sorry, but I can't agree with your condition."
"Then let's end this quickly, shall we?" After saying that, Tang Shaoyang summoned all the spirits, including all Grade B Spirits. Of course, Crystal and Zowen were the only two spirits that would be absent from the battle. Rosalie returned with a calmer mind, and she had settled down her anger after Crystal consoled her.
Allan and Alton's faces turned grim at the newly summoned forces. They did not expect that the young man would hide another force.
"We will spare your lives if you surrender, but we will kill those who resist!" Tang Shaoyang shouted. Those words were not just for the Beast Coven but also a command to his force. "I will face Alton, you can-" He was about to ask Zara to face Allan, but Zaneos and Bronson stepped forward. "Let us fight the Primordial Rank human, My Lord. This will be a good battle experience for both of us."
The Primordial Rank Beastmen and Human were different. It was harder to reach Primordial Rank if you were a human, while it was easier for the beastmen to reach Primordial because of natural evolution. In that case, usually, the Primordial Rank human would be stronger than the Primordial Rank beastmen because of the evolution trial.
Of course, this case did not apply to an absolute creature such as a Dragon, which was why Bronson and Zaneos wanted to work together to face Allan. Once again, both still wanted to try to their limit all this time, and no one could push them to the limit.
Tang Shaoyang did not immediately agree as he glanced at Zara. The Angel of Death smiled and nodded her head. "Let them fight that old knight. I don't mind. But I can tell you one thing, rank and grade don't matter. Sometimes, Grade S+ Spirit can be stronger than Grade SS Spirit. That's just a reminder for you two!"
Then Zara turned toward Tang Shaoyang. "I will observe the battle and try to minimize our casualty."
"Good then. Everything is settled. You two can fight Allan and leave Alton for me. Primordial Rank and also Legend Rank, I wonder how many levels they would give me." Tang Shaoyang turned around toward his enemy, who was cautiously observing his force one by one.
As Alton assessed the opposing force's strength, his expression was getting uglier and uglier. He realized why the man was laughing at him when he proposed a duel. Only a fool would accept his proposal with this kind of force. Allan had the same expression as his friend. He might be brash, but he could tell that they were facing an incredible force even with his knight.
Tang Shaoyang did not wait for Alton to make his move as he rushed toward Alton after a quick instruction for his force.
Boom!
However, midway to reach Alton, someone landed right in front of Tang Shaoyang. The figure was wearing heavy plate armor with a shield, and the figure raised her shield toward Tang Shaoyang, blocking his battle-ax.
The figure got pushed back by the strike and raised her head. Tang Shaoyang stopped his advance and looked at the figure who interrupted the fight. It was not a human as he could see bunny ears popped out of the steel helmet and furry arms.
Tang Shaoyang furrowed his brows as his concern came true. The Moonlight Tribe interrupted his fight against the Beast Coven. He was about to question the bunny-eared figure, but a barrage of arrows was shot toward him. He could easily block the arrows, but he decided to leap backward instead.
Tang Shaoyang distanced himself from the bunny-eared figure, and then another seven figures landed next to the bunny-eared figure. Three of them were wearing the same armor and had the same ears. The other fours were wearing a green cloak, a bow in their right hands, and a quiver on their back.
The green-cloaked figure stepped forward and spoke. "I am the representative from The Elven, Kaylin!"
After that, the bunny-eared figure stepped forward as well and said. "I am the representative from The Moonlight Tribe, Lusha."
