Working Prophet

When he was almost ten steps away from the Earth Bear, Ferdinand leveled the spear in his hand and aimed at the target's chest.

It is said that because it was too troublesome to put on and take off the plate armor, and each battle ended very quickly, basically only taking a few breaths, the Earth Bear simply stopped wearing armor.

His arrogant attitude also caused dissatisfaction among many opponents, but those who wanted to teach him a lesson are now either lying on the bed or buried underground.

Most of the onlookers were not optimistic about the young lord from the western region of the empire.

However, there was a look of appreciation on Edward II's face.

Because just from this short sprint, it can be seen that the young man on the horse has excellent riding skills and can control the horse well. Even during the charge, his upper body did not shake violently, and the spear was held very steadily.

The emperor called his captain of the bodyguard and asked, "Who is this man?"

"Ferdinand, from the Bathory family, is the rich minister of Marquis Cullen."

"Bathory?" This name was a bit unfamiliar to Edward II, and he recalled it for a long time but had no impression of it.

"A small family with only a few thousand members has almost no famous people in its ancestors." Du Lun, the captain of the guard, added.

His Majesty the Emperor said, "What is his relationship with Ilea? I see that they seem to be together all the time."

"I don't know, my friend, maybe you want me to send someone to investigate?"

"Don't worry. Let's wait until this competition is over. Maybe we won't have to investigate."

Although Edward II had some appreciation for Ferdinand, he obviously didn't think much of him, and judging from the previous games, the Earth Bear was very ruthless, and Ferdinand might not survive.

While the two were talking, Ferdinand had already made contact with the Earth Bear.

The Earth Bear actually wanted to reach out and grab the spear directly, but at the moment when he was about to succeed, Ferdinand suddenly turned his wrist, changing from a forehand to a backhand grip, and stabbed the Earth Bear in the eye!

The whole set of actions is done in one go, clean and neat!

The Earth Bear was also caught off guard. He didn't have much choice at such a close distance. He could only retreat while raising the giant sword in his hand to block.

The spear finally pierced the sword. Ferdinand lowered his wrist and continued to stab the Earth Bear's chest, but it went in a circle and returned to the starting point.

The Earth Bear also wanted to take advantage of this opportunity to break the spear. In the end, Ferdinand did not choose to resist and took the initiative to withdraw the spear. At the same time, he rode his horse and passed directly by the Earth Bear.

After going around in a small circle, he rushed back.

"Smart approach." Edward II praised.

This young nobleman from the Western Region was obviously aware of the huge gap in strength between himself and the Earth Bear, so he chose to use horse charging to make up for this shortcoming.

In this way, the combined strength of man and horse can compete with the bear of the earth.

But Cornelia on the side didn't take it seriously, "If the Earth Bear is so easy to deal with, I wouldn't give him the title of Shield of Thorns."

"Ferdinand came from the Western Region after all, so it's normal not to know how terrifying the blood power is." Edward II said.

As soon as he finished speaking, Ferdinand repeated his old trick and charged towards the Earth Bear again.

The Earth Bear also behaved similarly to before, blocking with his giant sword while trying to grab the weapon in Ferdinand's hand, but he obviously underestimated his opponent this time.

Ferdinand's spear was very flexible, and he could always get away at the critical moment. Moreover, when the two fought for the second time, Ferdinand even pierced the Earth Bear's clothes, only just missing the point of injury. The bear of the earth.

This also gave him more confidence, and even the onlookers around him began to think that he might have something to do.

Ferdinand rushed to the Earth Bear for the third time, and the Earth Bear became angry at being harassed by him, took the initiative to attack, and swung his sword at Ferdinand.

Ferdinand leaned almost completely against the horse's back to avoid the sword. At the same time, the spear in his hand was pointed at the Earth Bear's jaw, forcing the Earth Bear away.

Seeing that the two were about to pass each other, the Earth Bear suddenly reached out and grabbed the horse's tail.

The war horse staggered when he pulled it, but the Earth Bear was only led half a step forward, and then stood firm. This terrifying power made everyone present take a breath.

At the critical moment, Ferdinand's spear seemed to have eyes, sticking out behind him, piercing the throat of the earth bear.

However, the Earth Bear just tilted his head and dodged it, and then swung the giant sword in his hand, but it didn't cut at Ferdinand, but the war horse under him.

The war horse was frightened and tried to escape, but was still swept by the giant sword, broke a leg, and fell to the ground together with Ferdinand on the horse.

The Patriarch of the Bathory family seemed to have fallen hard and rolled several times on the ground.

It made Ilea's heart hang, and she shouted at the referee, "He lost, he has already lost, hurry up and announce the winner of this contest."

The referee hesitated for a moment, and looked at Ferdinand who was lying on the ground, only to see that the latter stood up unsteadily again.

The spear in his hand had flown to the side when he fell off the horse, but the head of the Bathory family still had his own sword, the River Thorn, and drew it out immediately.

Seeing this, the referee swallowed back the words that had come to his lips.

Apparently, the slightly embarrassed young noble not far away showed with practical actions that he would continue to fight.

The feeling of uneasiness in the female lord's heart became stronger and stronger, because she had seen the ferocious smile on the face of the Earth Bear, and the Earth Bear even glanced in her direction.

"When we are in danger, is there any way to save Ferdinand?"

Miss Rabbit asked Li Yu for help. She knew that according to regulations, outsiders could not interfere with the ongoing competition, so she did not know what to do to avoid Ferdinand's death.

But she knew that if there was one person in this world who could do it, it must be Li Yu!

But this time Li Yu didn't answer, but continued to look at the contest on the field.

Compared with the spear, the two-handed sword is actually the most convenient weapon for Ferdinand to use. He only chose the spear for horse fighting.

Now holding the hilt of the sword again, his eyes showed no fear, and he took the lead in attacking.

Gaining momentum with anger, he used a whirlpool strike, but was easily blocked by the Earth Bear. Then it was the Earth Bear's turn to counterattack, using only a simple close attack.

Ferdinand felt as if the River Thorn in his hand was about to fall out of his hands. The power was not something that an orc could use at all. He could only rely on his feet to avoid this attack.
