It was after his battle with the Sun Golden Knight Chris Sutton Twin Tower Peaks that Sun Fei rose to fame, shocked the capital, and truly entered the sights of the empire's upper echelons. It was also this battle that later attracted several other members of the Ten Judgment Knight to challenge Sun Fei, stirring up the Storm Riders on the Number One Sword-Testing Platform in the Twenty Mile Affiliated State-owned Area, earning Sun Fei the reputation of " One Fist Spanning the Heavens ".
A year ago, Sutton was a renowned martial arts star in the empire. At a young age, he had already joined the ranks of the Ten Judgment Knights and was seen by many as the only candidate to succeed Martial Saint Krasich as the new Guardian Martial Saint of the empire. However, he was arrogant and overbearing. His battle with Sun Fei was arguably the most crushing defeat Sutton had suffered since his rise to power. On Twin Towers Peak, his dragon spear shattered, his golden armor broke, and he left naked...
After this battle, he, known as the Sun Golden Knight, tempered his sharpness and arrogance, and devoted himself to martial arts, with the ultimate goal of defeating Sun Fei.
Over the past year, Sutton, who had been biding his time, had indeed not wasted any time. With his exceptional talent, stimulated by Sun Fei, he had actually advanced to the level of Nine-Star Class Dou Qi qi, showing signs of breaking through to the Moon Class realm. His extremely powerful sharp metal-type Dou Qi was invincible.
Meeting an old friend under such circumstances, Sun Fei couldn't help but feel a surge of emotions.
Remember this Sun Golden Knight, who was once one of the suitors of the Witch Paris? Now that the peace of the empire has been shattered, his love and affections have been put aside. As a young and powerful warrior of the empire, he has no choice but to devote himself wholeheartedly to the crucible of war. Even someone as noble as him is in danger of dying at any moment.
boom!!!!!!
Sutton, leading the Zenit experts, overturned and destroyed the thirty-first siege weapon. The broken weapon crashed heavily to the ground, kicking up clouds of dust.
Sutton gasped for breath, his mouth agape, his golden armor, stained with blood, now marred with countless knife marks.
The continuous, desperate fighting finally exhausted this young expert from the empire. He had used up at least half of his Nine-Star Class Dou Qi, and had to stop for a while to recover his depleted Dou Qi.
Behind him, sixteen experienced Three-Star Class martial Dou Qi masters selected from the Imperial Army looked at Sutton with admiration. Under the leadership of this young Judgment Knight, they had launched a small offensive, killing hundreds of Lyon masters, tearing apart thousands of Lyon soldiers, and destroying more than thirty siege weapons. Sutton had become a true warrior in the eyes of these elite soldiers.
The intense killing intent kept the ordinary Lyon soldiers away, and a rare vacuum appeared around the group as they hurried to recover their depleted Dou Qi.
Just then, Chris Sutton suddenly sensed something, looked up into the distance, and his pupils contracted sharply.
In the sky, three figures clad in the black standard armor of the Lyon army appeared, suspended in mid-air, rapidly approaching them like three black streaks of light. Even before they got close, the terrifying aura emanating from them, as powerful as a tidal wave, was already making Sutton and the others gasp for breath.
Moon Class expert!
It seems that the commander of the Lyon army deep in the crowd has finally noticed the formidable strength of this Zenit elite squad beneath the city gate. They have actually dispatched three Moon Class experts in one go, clearly intending to wipe them out and take over the main gate of Saint Petersburg in one fell swoop.
Any Moon Class expert is a valuable asset to the empire.
In the past sixty-plus hours of holding out, the two sides' Moon Class experts have clashed multiple times. The Zenit side, which is outnumbered, is completely at a disadvantage. The Imperial Senate has deployed almost all of its top experts. The four Zenit Moon Class experts, after paying a heavy price of two dead and two seriously injured, have barely managed to repel the first few waves of attacks from Lyon's Moon Class experts with the help of the magical giant crossbows on the city walls.
Chris Sutton knew very well that the Empire now had almost no Moon Class experts left who could fight. Of the two Senate guardians who were seriously injured earlier, one had already died from his injuries, and the other, despite the efforts of the Empire's mages, would need at least three or four days to barely recover any strength. In the current situation, the Empire's military could not send any experts to fight against the three enemy Moon Class experts in front of them.
"The only option left is this last resort: to use the lives of countless soldiers and Star Class experts to hold off these three terrifying enemies!"
The Sun Golden Knight showed no fear at this moment.
He gripped his golden dragon spear tightly, his body ramrod straight, his fighting spirit soaring. Without turning back, he whispered to his comrades behind him, "Brothers, it has been the greatest honor of my Chris Sutton to fight alongside you. Now, the final moment has arrived. No matter what, as long as we live, we cannot let the Lyon storm the capital. Let us use our lives to protect our parents and loved ones in the city, and to fulfill our oath to His Majesty Yassin!"
"We are willing to fight to the death with you, sir!" the sixteen elite soldiers roared in unison.
The military spirit of the imperial soldiers resonated powerfully in this roar.
At the same time, the three Lyon Moon Class powerhouses who were approaching from the sky suddenly split into two groups. Two of them bypassed the magic shield and headed straight for the main gate, rushing towards Arshavin, the Zenit commander, with lightning speed. The other one swooped down like a divine eagle, with an unparalleled aura and a contemptuous smile, and attacked Sutton and the others.
"Kill!"
The Sun Golden Knight roared, unleashing his Sharp Metal-type Dou Qi to its peak. Against the backdrop of his golden armor, he resembled a small golden Sun rising from the ground. He hurled his three-meter-long dragon spear, which transformed into a golden streak of light and shot towards the charging Moon Class expert.
"Hahahaha, a few ants dare to provoke the majesty of a dragon?" A loud, arrogant laugh came from the sky.
The Lyon Moon Class expert, clad in black armor, casually threw a punch, unleashing an overwhelming force. A deafening roar echoed through the sky, golden light scattering everywhere. The dragon spear, hurled with all its might by the Nine-Star Class expert Sutton, was instantly shattered into countless golden fragments...
Sutton seemed to have anticipated this scene. His handsome face showed no surprise. With a roar, he unleashed his strongest Dou Qi technique, took a step forward, crouched slightly, and clenched his right hand in the void. Instantly, a huge dragon spear formed from Sharp Metal Dou Qi materialized, transforming into a golden streak of light and continuing to fly.
In a split second, Sutton managed to condense and throw out more than a dozen spears of Dou Qi.
Crescent Moon Flowing Light Slash!
The hurled golden spear transformed into arcs of light, forming a continuous beam of light in the void, enveloping the approaching Moon Class expert Lyon.
This was an extremely powerful gun-fighting technique he obtained from the Imperial Armory. When combined with his Sharp Metal-type Dou Qi, it was incredibly powerful. It was said to be Dou Qi technique created by Emperor Yassin, and it was extraordinary. In addition, given his desperate situation, Sutton knew he could not escape, and from the beginning, he was determined to severely injure his opponent even if they could not die together. Therefore, he was not afraid at all and instantly unleashed all of his Dou Qi.
Subtly, this attack actually touched the threshold of the Early-Tier Moon Class Realm.
The young Lyon, Moon Class expert, was clearly a bit careless and overconfident. In his haste, he didn't expect that a mere Nine-Star Class martial artist could harm him. He was grazed by a wisp of golden Dou Qi, which severed several strands of his long Dou Qi and left a trail of blood on his face.
"Your Excellency is mighty!" Sixteen low-ranking soldiers roared in unison.
In the next instant, the sixteen people sprang into the air, all unleashing their strongest power. Amidst the flashing flames of their Dou Qi aura, they were like sixteen moths drawn to a flame, unleashing their strongest combat techniques and launching an attack at the cost of their lives.
