Traveling through the first year of Panlong and Magnolia

The two did not deliberately conceal their conversation, and everyone below heard it. After hearing this conversation, everyone's reactions were different.

Emperor: "Andrew's talent may exceed my expectations! With his growth rate, it is not impossible for him to become a high priest in the future! I must tie such a person to the Yulan Empire. In this way, my Yulan Empire will prosper forever!"

Bart and other Saint Domains: "What an arrogant boy, you actually want to kill Baird with one sword! Baird is at least a strong man in the late Saint Domain, and you have just entered the Saint Domain. Humph, what's the point of staying in the Saint Domain for thousands of years? You think you can break through to the God Level just because you have a high talent!"

Most of these people were like Baird, who had not made a breakthrough for thousands of years. Andrew's words were like a map cannon, which offended them as well.

The crowd watching the fight said: "Earl Lance is so amazing. He became a Saint Domain warrior after only thirteen years of training. If I had one percent of his talent, I would have become a high-level warrior by now. In comparison, Baird is far behind. He has been training for thousands of years but still cannot beat Earl Lance... However, it would be difficult for Earl Lance to kill him with one blow, as he is from the Saint Domain after all!"

Andrew's family was very proud to hear his words. It was only then that they realized that Andrew had grown to where he is today. Howard and Janice looked at each other and smiled happily, thinking in their hearts: This is our son! In comparison, Ling'er and Hanyue were more joyful and happy.

Baru suddenly grinned and laughed. He thought of the first time Andrew came to the Kree tribe, and they had a competition. He lost in the end, but he was not much worse than him. It was not until three years later, when he broke through to the advanced warrior level, that Andrew was able to overpower the Wind Wing Tiger King. After that, Andrew's strength improved faster and faster, leaving him behind.

"I can't compare to your talent. But I, Baru, have also sworn to become the strongest on the grassland. So, I will definitely catch up with you! One day, I will surpass you, Andrew!"

The drunk stopped drinking and stood up. He wanted to know what trump card Andrew had to kill Baird with one blow. The drunk's strength had reached the limit of the Saint Realm, but even if he wanted to kill Baird in the late Saint Realm with one blow, he had to use all his trump cards.

"Good boy, how far have you come? I am really looking forward to it!"

Andrew and Baird ignored the other thoughts. Andrew gently wiped the God-Slaying Sword, while Baird slowly swung the spear.

"Are you ready?" Andrew whispered.

Baird laughed loudly: "Andrew, I admit you have talent. But today, you made the most common mistake young people make, arrogance. You don't have the ability to end the fight with one sword! What's more, you chose the city of Corbis as the venue for the duel. This is my home ground!"

Andrew also smiled and said, "I chose this place especially for you. Otherwise, I'm afraid you would die with regrets!"

"Arrogant!" Baird said as he suddenly pulled out his gun. The spear was completely hidden in the darkness and even Andrew could not see its trajectory.

Baird smiled proudly, this shot was the result of his one year of practice, combined with his deepest understanding of stealth techniques. The shot was fierce, the angle was tricky, and there was no trace at all, which was especially suitable for fighting in the dark.

"Hey, you've made progress too. Good, that's best!"

Andrew was not surprised but happy, and went forward to meet it. Facing the unpredictable spear, he did not dodge. The God-Slaying Sword suddenly came out of its sheath, and a flash of white light appeared in the darkness. The white light was very fast, faster than lightning, and after a flash, it disappeared.

"What happened?"

The crowd watching the battle were speculating, and even the powerful Saint Realm warriors next to the emperor were discussing it.

"Teacher, what happened just now?"

The emperor suddenly asked towards the empty space behind him.

In the open space, a figure in a black robe appeared. This person was very strange. He was not there a second ago, but in the blink of an eye, he appeared, as if he had always been standing there.

"The Earl of Lance has drawn his sword." The black shadow was silent for a while, then said, "As for the result, I don't know either!"

"Even you don't know!" The emperor was moved. This man was the chief magician of the royal family of the Yulan Empire and also the disciple of the high priest. Now, it has reached the limit of the holy domain.

"Andrew is back!" Mayer said suddenly.

Everyone looked over quickly, and sure enough, Andrew had flown back. His face was calm, neither sad nor happy, and there was no scar on his body, exactly the same as when he left before.

The emperor and everyone else were puzzled: "Why did he come back so soon? Is the duel over?"

Howard and others immediately came forward, and Ling'er's clear voice rang out: "Brother, did you win?"

Andrew smiled and nodded.

"Yeah, that's great!" Ling'er hugged Hanyue and jumped up.

"He won!" Everyone still couldn't believe it, "He really killed Baird with one blow!"

"Teacher, thank you for your help!" The emperor felt it necessary to confirm.

The black-robed Holy Mage disappeared again. After a while, he was holding a corpse in his hand and threw it in front of the emperor's carriage. Everyone looked and saw that it was Baird.

Baird's body looked intact, except that his eyes were bulging, as if he had seen something extremely shocking. However, the Saints present were all veterans of the battlefield, and they could tell at a glance that Baird's internal organs had been completely shattered. The reason why his body was still intact was probably intentional by Andrew.

For a moment, the scene calmed down.

Finally, the emperor coughed lightly and said, "Adonis, go and announce that Andrew won the duel and Baird died!" He knew that everyone was looking forward to the result. As the emperor, it was most appropriate for him to do this.

"Thank you, Your Majesty." Although Andrew felt that this was unnecessary, he still wanted to show respect to the emperor.

"Andrew, congratulations." The emperor's attitude towards him also changed. "Five years ago, I said that as long as you become a sanctuary, you will be the Duke of the Magnolia Empire. Today, right here, I will fulfill my promise, Duke of Lance!"

Andrew certainly understood that the other party wanted to win him over and keep him in the Magnolia Empire. However, he did not refuse. After all, if it were not for the protection of the Magnolia Empire, Baird would definitely have attacked his family in the past five years. Andrew would not forget this favor.

"Thank you, Your Majesty!" Andrew thanked again and agreed.

"Also, I have something else to trouble your majesty."

The emperor is very happy. He is not afraid of you causing trouble, but he is afraid that you have no requests.

"Just say it."

Andrew pulled Hanyue over and looked at her affectionately: "Yue'er and I have known each other for five years. Before, because of Baird's existence, I have always been cautious. Today, I would like to ask Your Majesty to help me propose to Yue'er's family."

The emperor laughed loudly and said, "I am very happy to help a pair of lovers get together. After returning to the imperial capital, I will personally visit Duke Dana."

Duke Dana? Andrew remembered that he seemed to have seen him before.

After Adonis announced the result of the duel, nearly a million spectators were excited. They didn't care that they didn't see a wonderful fight, but they were shocked that Andrew really killed Baird with one knife.

"Earl Lance really won. He killed Baird, who had been famous for thousands of years, with one sword!"

"Yes, he killed the Saint with one strike. Do you think that Earl Lance has become a legendary god?"

"Even if it's not, it's almost there."

"In my opinion, now in the entire continent, except for the high priest, no one can rival Earl Lance!"

"It's a pity that we can't see the duel. A single sword cut down the Saint Domain. What kind of sword was that!"

Everyone was excited and regretful, and they were reluctant to leave for a long time at the foot of the mountain.

However, Andrew and his team have already set off back to the imperial capital.

A month later, with the emperor acting as a matchmaker, Andrew proposed to Hanyue's father, Duke of Dana, as the Duke of Reims.

Duke Dana was the fat man who agreed with the emperor when Andrew first went to the palace.

"Andrew, is it okay for me to call you that?" The fat Duke Dana looked very kind and friendly.

Andrew hurriedly said: "Of course, you are Yue'er's father, so it is most appropriate to call me that."

Duke Dana was very proud. When he learned that Han Yue and Andrew had a close relationship, he sent someone to investigate Andrew. At that time, Andrew was only an eighth-level warrior, but his talent had already shocked Duke Dana. Because of this, Duke Dana did not interfere with their relationship, even when Andrew later offended Baird, he did not stop him.

Now it seems that his decision was too wise. This son-in-law is not only the number one genius in the continent, but also has the reputation of being the best master under the high priest!

"I know you like Hanyue, and she likes you too. So, I have no objection to your marriage." Duke Dana said, "But I hope you can treat her the same, don't let her fall into danger, and don't let her be sad. Can you do it?"

Andrew patted his chest and assured: "Please rest assured, no matter how much it costs, I will protect Yue'er!"

After a brief meeting, the two set a wedding date: August 15th, the 18th year of the Magnolia calendar.
