However, when he raised his head again, Louis saw the blazing battle intent in his eyes.
He said, "I know I lack the extraordinary talent of Your Highness, but I am not as disgraceful as before. Please allow me to fight."
Louis was taken aback.
If the original Gregory in his eyes was merely a somewhat foolish pawn being used by others,
then now, he had a bit of a warrior's demeanor.
So he laughed and said:
"Come, step up, let me see how much you've improved."
The next moment, Gregory's eyes flashed, and he grabbed a huge stone pillar beside him that was half his height with both hands.
A terrifying grip left marks on the stone pillar.
With a roar, even more of the stone pillar, mostly embedded in the ground, was pulled out like pulling up a turnip.
His arms, at this moment, were like tightened steel rods, displaying an indescribable aesthetic of violence.
He took a step forward, and his bulging muscles expanded like those of Toguro Ani.
The stone pillar, as tall as a person and covered with a large amount of earth, hurtled toward him like a meteorite.
Louis was laughing, he was laughing wildly.
Amidst the crowd's astonishment, the two closed in on the thrown stone pillar almost instantly.

The two hit the stone pillar like a hammer striking a spark, shattering it to pieces.
Chunks of stone and debris spread out.
The astonished cries from the crowd rose and fell.
Amid the smoke, they heard the rapid and continuous sounds of collisions.
As if someone had suddenly lit a string of firecrackers.
The crackling sounds continued.
The surrounding spectators craned their necks but couldn't see the battle through the smoke.
Suddenly, a small whirlwind swept in.
Carrying the sanguine energy of the Nine Swords, it blew away a small patch of dust. A thick, blue-black arm, like that of a constrictor, encased in swaying foliage, smashed heavily against a slightly smaller fist.
Accompanied by a surge of white shockwaves.
The owner of the blue-black arm, Gregory, flew backward and crashed heavily to the ground.
But unexpectedly, he laughed:
"Cough cough~ So strong, just as I thought. The deathly aura I felt that day was no illusion."
Only then did the crowd notice that at some point, half of Gregory's armor had been shattered. Thɪs chapter is updatᴇd by novｅlfire.net
Louis slowly withdrew his hand, and the black patterns remaining on it instantly dissipated.

Louis said with emotion:
"I take back what I said before, you truly are a genius."
"But sadly, you are still an uncut gem."
This blow, heavy like a pile driver, Louis could guarantee was no less than his personal monster "Alice."
The problem is that Alice is already LV10, albeit with the physical differences of a female.
But even disregarding these factors, looking at today's group of Nine Swords professionals on stage, he was indeed the one that surprised him the most.
"To think I need to partially use the Sin Dragon Armament, Gregory, not bad!"
"Is the fight over? Do you need to rest for a bit?"
Before Louis could express his thoughts further, he heard Alice's teasing tone.
Looking over, Louis saw Alice licking her lips, her face full of unbearable impatience.
Louis said indifferently:
"No rush, you also want to face a stronger me."
The next second, the aura around Louis surged to new heights.
In the self-satisfied smile of Kulin Sword Saint.
Louis, professional advancement!
There was a moment of silence at the scene.
The next moment, the entire training ground erupted.
