Dulong asked doubtfully, "Why would you think that?"
Pistan said mysteriously, "I heard that the reason Senior Jeffrey was kicked out of the president's seat was because he lost to Dark in a duel!"
Dulong shook his head. "Though that's true, wins and losses are common in battle. Besides, that was a normal duel in public. Senior Jeffrey can't be that petty, can he?"
Pistan shrugged, wearing a comical grin. "Maybe? Otherwise, why would he challenge Dark?"
Dulong said, "He lost, so he wants to win it back. One day, I'll challenge Dark again too!"
Pistan smiled and shook his head.
Though he did not think Dulong would ever catch up to Dark, wasn't challenging someone stronger than oneself a kind of courage as well?
When the time came, he would definitely support Dulong.
Then he said, "Going by what you said, Senior Jeffrey must have issued the challenge believing he could win. Doesn't that mean Dark's match this round is looking pretty grim?"
Dulong said, "Senior Jeffrey has a huge amount of resources. It's not impossible that he's made tremendous progress recently."
Pistan said, "That's rough."
Dulong's eyes suddenly lit up. "Look, Dark's coming on!"
Behind him, Diana's energetic cheers immediately rang out!
The moment Dark emerged from the contestant tunnel, he vaguely heard Diana's voice.
He closed the book in his hand and smiled in that direction. Sure enough, he spotted Diana vigorously waving a sign.
Then he turned back and strode forward.
As he approached the arena, Angus Jeffrey was also nearing from the other side.
The two walked toward each other, their gazes colliding.
Dark suddenly frowned. He sensed malice in Angus Jeffrey's eyes!
Thus, when he reached the duelist platform, he could not help but stop.
Likewise, Angus Jeffrey halted beneath his own platform.
