Chapter 2113 Suppression!

After whispering a few words to Catherine and making a decision.

Brand didn't hesitate and immediately used a communication spell to contact Lord White Barr, who was the examiner on this side.

When the gentleman, who was resting at the edge of the training field and chatting with his colleagues, curiously turned his gaze over.

Brand and Catherine stood up together.

This scene undoubtedly attracted the attention of everyone around, and the people chatting nearby all looked at them curiously.

Celine asked:
"Are we going up already?"

Brand nodded and said:
"The sooner we start, the sooner we'll finish. We still need to go to the monks for the review, don't we?"

I'll go register Catherine.

"Hissaly, come and help too."

Hisali smiled and stood up, saying:
"coming."

After briefly explaining something to everyone...

Brand, along with Catherine and Hessalis, left the audience seats and headed towards Lord White and the others at the edge of the arena.

Upon seeing this, the gentlemen quickly began their discussion.

Although Catherine usually keeps a low profile, she made a remarkable contribution in the duel when Brand had just come of age.

She was a full-fledged knight who fought alongside Brand against Lord Holland.

In fact, she played a crucial role in that duel!
Now, after so many years, how much has her strength grown?

Even if her level is really only that of a beginner Grand Knight, the lords do not believe that her strength will stop there!

In conclusion, Catherine is definitely one of the powerful forces hidden by the North Holland family!

And listening to the several gentlemen's fantastical discussion about Catherine.

Not quite sure of the specifics, Patrick nudged Yersin beside him and asked:
"I know Catherine, but is she very strong?"
She looks to me like a junior Grand Knight? Could she be hiding her true level using magical artifacts?

Upon hearing this question, Yersin shook his head helplessly and said:

"I don't know if Catherine is hiding her strength. Don't be fooled by the fact that I'm Brand's brother; Brand doesn't tell me many things."

However, Catherine's strength is definitely very strong, although her brilliance has been overshadowed by Brand.

But her talent in the Knights' Domain is in no way inferior to Brand's.

And there's something you might not know: Catherine faced a top-tier Grand Knight like Lord White right after she came of age.

Although everyone around him knew very well that Yersen was referring to the duel with Lord Holland back then.

However, Patrick was not clear on the specifics.

Only families closely associated with the Holland family were invited to the duel and witnessed the entire event.

At that time, the Holland family and the royal family did not have the deep relationship they have now.

So after listening to Yersin's words, Patrick felt both impressed and bewildered, as well as curious and expectant about the upcoming battle.

Of course, they are not the only ones looking forward to this battle.

As Brand led Katherine and Hessalis to the dueling arena to find Lord White, the other spectators were filled with curiosity and anticipation.

Mr. White is the examiner, what else could we possibly need from him?
Considering this is the knight's assessment ground, it's obvious that one of the two ladies next to Brand will be taking the assessment.

As a result, everyone's attention immediately focused on Hisali, the intermediate-level Grand Knight.

Unlike Catherine, Hissali, as the commander of the Morningflower Lord's Guard and even the regular legions, has always been under the public eye and has never hidden her strength!

However, what happened next surprised everyone:

After Brand and Lord White finished their communication, it was Catherine who stepped onto the rune array next to the dueling arena, used to temporarily seal the extraordinary items she carried.

Then, with Hissali's help, he selected a set of heavy armor from the designated equipment selection area and put it on. He then picked up a giant shield and a greatsword from the weapon rack.

Watching this once delicate Lady Morning Blossom gradually transform into a knight clad in heavy armor, wielding a giant shield and a greatsword, who clearly did not look like a weakling.

Many viewers were somewhat taken aback.

Having noticed more details, Patrick asked with some curiosity:

"Ms. Catherine seems to be very familiar with this type of large, heavy equipment."

Yersin nodded and said:
"She has always been very strong, so she has always used large-sized heavy equipment."

This can compensate for her lack of skill to some extent.

No sooner had he finished speaking than Lord Holland, who was standing nearby, reminded him:
“Yelson, don’t judge the present based on past experiences.”

Catherine did have technical shortcomings in the past, but that doesn't mean she still has that problem after all these years.

Upon hearing this, after a brief moment's thought, Yersin nodded in agreement.

—So, Catherine's fighting power might actually be quite terrifying!

Before I knew it, I had already put on my gear.

After some simple hand and foot exercises, encouraged by Brand and Cissaly.

Catherine, now a heavily armored knight, wielded a giant shield and a greatsword, and walked into the dueling arena alongside the examiner, White Barr, who held a heavy spear.

Meanwhile, representatives from the other four empires responsible for supervising the battle, as well as personnel responsible for recording the battle footage, also took their places one after another.

Soon, as everything was ready, a transparent barrier with protective and soundproof functions rose at the edge of the dueling arena.

Under the watchful eyes of the crowd, the two who were facing off inside the dueling arena simultaneously launched their attacks at each other.

Less than a blink of an eye later.

White's heavy spear struck the giant shield in Catherine's left hand, creating a visible ring of sound.

Then, to everyone's astonishment:
Catherine then gently raised her shield, deflecting White's heavy spear aside.

The process was like peeling back a hollow toy, but White's surprised look made people realize that things were not so simple.

At the moment when White's fighting stance was slightly distorted.

Catherine thrust her heavy sword in her right hand mercilessly toward his chest.

Despite having spared some energy, White quickly dodged the thrust with a side jump and distanced himself from Catherine.

However, anyone could see that Lord White, who had completely overpowered Patrick not long ago, now seemed unable to suppress Ms. Catherine!

Before anyone could think further, Catherine launched a charge.

The distance that had just been created was instantly bridged, and a powerful, heavy sword slash came straight down towards White!

In response, he realized that he was no match for Catherine in the realm of pure strength.

So this time, White also chose to dodge to the side and retaliate with his spear.

A unique, dark brown life force instantly entangled his heavy spear, and the power of the Great Knight erupted at that moment, enveloping Catherine.

In response, Catherine unleashed her Great Knight power, colliding with the attack and distorting the surrounding area.

At the same time, her heavy sword, which had just missed its target, was swung horizontally and struck White's heavy spear.

As another heavy clash exploded with even more exaggerated aftershocks than before, the life energy of the bright gold and dark brown also began a fierce contest in an instant.

But what shocked the audience in an instant was:
The formidable Grand Knight in their eyes, Lord White Barr, retreated once again.

And this time, he was forced to retreat in a very disheveled and chaotic manner!
