He turned to the King, hands trembling with eitement. “Your Majesty, Ms. Yates. Mc. Yates pierced eight layers Two layers remaini Yates… she has won!”
The crowd fell silent. A silence so profound, it felt suffocating.
A silence so profound, it fell suffocating.
Jessica from the Yates family had won. She had defeated Malik..
No one knew what to say. The outcome had completely defied expectations.
Then suddenly, a round of applause broke the silence.
“Interesting! Very interesting! Ms. Yates is indeed as clever as she is talented, not some brawny, empty–headed brute.”
He laughed heartily, a bold, almost domineering laugh.
Malik’s face darkened as he glared at Leon. He really wanted to punch Leon in the face.
But no one else dared to laugh.
Even the King restrained himself, though clearly in high spirits
Still, Malik was a foreign prince. If he laughed too openly, and Malik went home and whined to his father, it might look ke he was bullying the younger generation:
Malik took a deep breath and quickly composed himself
He turned to Jessica and said respectfully, “Ms. Yates, not only are you thoughtful, but your martial skills are also meticulous. I am impressed.”
it was hard to tell whether her skill was excellent or not, but to achieve that level of precision was undeniably impressive.
Still, Malik wasn’t sure whether it was true skill or just sheer luck. The audience below mostly chalked it up to luck.

“Oh?” The King raised his brows. “What is your request?”
Garbisch was nervous now, uncertain of what Jessica had in mind. He was afraid she was going to ask for something outrageous.
Jessica met the King’s gaze. Her voice wasn’t loud, but it was firm. “Your Majesty, I recently received word that a small border nation in the souther frontier is stirring again. My grandfather and uncles are currently stationed there, holding the line.”
She continued, “My brother worries for their safety day and night, unable to sleep. I beg Your Majesty to permit my brother to load the Yates family army to the southern border, to aid our family in defending it, to protect the nation and our people.”
Adele’s gaze darkened.
Jessica wanted to send the Yates family army away.
Still, Adele was still confident that the Yates family army would become hers.
