Chapter 79: You Guys… Are Actually Brothers?

Seeing how supportive his classmates were had filled Locke with joy. After receiving their gifts, Locke then ushered his classmates home.

Locke did not waste any time. Upon entering his room, Locke immediately cultivated Incantation until midnight…

…

The next day, no one in the Holy City was working.

The famous city on the continent had been covered with various posters and advertisements of various major television stations.

Everyone was looking forward to the birth of the strongest Beastmaster of the Holy City!

Naturally, the citizens’ hope was also at stake!

The battleground in the center of the city was gorgeous. It was one of the best in the entire continent, and it had hosted many important competitions in the past.

The arena was very spacious. Under normal conditions, large-scale Battle Beasts could attack without restraint, and the ring will still remain unscathed.

The White family’s participants were the first to arrive.

Alva made sure to greet the nobles supporting them.

Meanwhile, Mars had a solemn expression. He was in the preparation area, and his eyes were shut tight as if he were meditating.

Moto, who was sitting at the side, looked as if he wanted to die. There was nothing present that piqued his interest.

“Why aren’t they here yet? Are they afraid?” Alva’s questioned the judges sent by the court with his thunderous voice.

“They should be here soon. Please wait a little longer, Young Master Alva…” The chief judge looked at the dignified Alva and comforted him.

The ordinary citizens sitting in the stands glared at Alva, the murderer, with seething hatred. They wanted nothing more than to tear him apart with their own hands.

Right then, a tremor rocked the venue.

The tremors were growing stronger and stronger…

“Boom!”

The Black Tortoise drilled out from the ground. Then, its hatch opened to reveal the students and participants of the Federal Academy.

The silence of the arena from a moment ago had been replaced by the excited cheers of the audience members!

Jacques led the students from the Diamond Class towards the viewing gallery in the distance.

The other three walked towards the preparation area under the guidance of the referee.

“Why is there a student in the Federal Academy’s team?”

“What kind of joke is this? Are they out of their minds?”

“Isn’t he a little too young?”

“Before the White family had issued the media embargo, I saw this young man’s battle. He’s quite formidable, but he’s up against Alva…”

“Sloppy! The Federal Academy is taking this battle too lightly!”

The citizens could not understand why the Federal Academy had sent a young student to participate in the duel.

Voices of doubt rang out from the citizens’ stands.

“Hahaha! Did you guys hear that? The academy is just that cheap!” Alva shouted towards his fellow nobles.

“We place our confidence in you, Alva. Once you’ve emerged victorious, the Feta family will increase our investment in the city, and we’ll make it so that these lowlifes aren’t qualified to enter…”

“The Mark family will also push for new transport laws. These lowlifes’ shabby cars are really bad to the environment…”

“Also, we need to start charging fees for entering the park. It’s overpopulated nowadays…”

“We have to adjust the taxes as well…”

“Young Master Alva, as long as we destroy the Federal Academy that stands against us, we are willing to continue supporting you and Mr. White. Worst comes to worst, we will just open a new Beastmaster Academy in the Holy City. Naturally, we’ll set it up such that only nobles can enroll in it…”

“Don’t worry, they’ll definitely die today. Also, there’s no way that my father will lose to that old fool” Alva said confidently while patting his chest.

One of the judges walked to the center of the dueling platform and spoke into the microphone, “Everyone! I’m going to announce the rules of this duel now! First things first, the Federal Court will be supervising this battle…”

As soon as he finished speaking, boos could be heard coming from the ordinary citizens’ stands.

“There are three participants on both sides. However, since this is a battle to the death, even if one side suffers casualties, the other side can continue to fight! Once all the members of a team have been eliminated, or once their surrender has been accepted by the other party, the battle will end!”

With that, he looked in the direction of Alva and announced, “Both sides, please send out your first participant! !”

Mars, who had closed his eyes for a long time, stood up at this moment. With a seemingly effortless leap, he had arrived at the huge battle platform.

“It’s Mars! I heard that he’s very powerful!”

“If I recall correctly, his Battle Beast is rather unique…”

“Hmph! He’s nothing more than the White family’s number one lackey!”

The citizens had a rather poor impression of Mars.

Meanwhile, on the Federal Academy’s side, John seemed to be waiting for Mars’ appearance. Without even consulting Tristan, he made his way to the platform as well.

The audience immediately noticed something.

‘These… These two people look way too similar!’

The spectators were discussing animatedly.

Locke also asked in curiosity, “Even their height and build are almost the same, could they be…”

Tristan answered indifferently, “You guessed correctly, they… They are twins.”

“Huh? Then why would they…”

Tristan, who had already anticipated Locke’s question, explained, “These two brothers have been following the principal and Old Man White since they were good friends…”

“But around twenty years ago, when the principal and Old Man White had a falling out, these two brothers were faced with a crossroad of choices…”

Locke continued, “So, the two old men had a falling out, and these two brothers were caught in it?”

With a nod, Tristan continued, “That’s right. The older brother, Mars agreed with Old Man White’s kingly ideals, whereas John, the younger brother, supported the principal’s desire for equality. As a result, the two brothers broke off their relationship and they each pledged their loyalty to their chosen masters.”

“Oh…” Locke’s curiosity was finally satisfied. Fortunately, the two brothers’ clothes were very different in color. Had it not been for that, Locke would not have been able to tell them apart.

Back on the dueling platform, Mars looked at his brother and said, “It’s been a long time… But this is a life and death battle. Don’t expect me to show you any mercy. I will not hesitate to remove the obstacles in my master’s way, including you…”

John took off his coat and threw it aside. He looked at his brother from the corner of his eye and said, “You almost killed me twenty-three years ago, but unfortunately, that was your only chance!”

“Two brothers with the same blood running through their veins are about to have a life and death battle. Are the fates toying with them? Hahahaha…” A young noble was eating the grapes peeled for him by a servant, and he was laughing his heart out. In his eyes, the duel was nothing more than cheap entertainment.

“Mr. Naldo, I hope you’ll understand the gravity of the situation. Mars is fighting for us nobles’ dignity!”

“I’m apologize, I just found the Fates rather amusing. Of course, I’m in full support of the White family!” Naldo exclaimed.

Alva crossed his arms and said, “Don’t worry, everyone. This watchdog of ours is very powerful…”
