The Soldier's Unsurpassable Honor

If they had not known that the stage had a barrier around it and that they could not get on, they would have rushed up there to protect Lesley! The flames raged for a few moments before slowly receding. The frostfire wolf slowly got closer to the part that was burning the most intensely. After the flames receded, a charred, almost blackened figure was revealed, and everyone could barely recognize him.

The moment the sight registered, they forgot to even breathe.

Lesley had been burned to a crisp. Looking at him, there was no doubt that he had died. Cries of shock and agony could be heard in the spectator stands.

Everyone turned to look at the source of the noise, and they saw that the place where the disciples of the Deer Pavilion were gathered rang out with cries.

Everyone knew very well that Lesley was dead.

It was far too unexpected. Everything had happened so quickly, so much so that they were caught off guard. They did not expect the beast's power to be so immense that it burned Lesley alive. Even Lesley's corpse was mutilated!

"Goodness gracious, that beast was that strong! Lesley was already quite strong, but he's blown up from just

one attack. He died in such a bad state-completely charred. I can't even look at him!"

"Lesley probably never expected that he'd lose this badly. Honestly, I never thought that this beast would be so strong. It's unbelievable..."

Fane raised an eyebrow, not

showing that much emotion on his face. He had expected this much, so he was not surprised at all. The people around him, on the other hand, never expected this, which was why they were filled with surprise.

After it made sure that Lesley was dead, the frostfire wolf walked around in circles as its body started to glow radiantly. After that, it turned into pure energy and was absorbed by the surrounding array.

The moment the frostfire wolf turned into energy, the barrier around the stage disappeared as well. The disciples of the Deer Pavilion, who had been waiting around t the stage, frantically rushed When they saw Lesley'sAll rights © NôvelDrama.Org.

blackened body, they looked like

they had lost their fathers.

It was far too depressing. The results were something they could not accept. The disciple that mocked Fane in the betting area immediately fell to their knees as tears flowed from his eyes.

"Lesley! How did this happen?!"

The other disciples from the Deer Pavilion all knelt down as well, crying out in agony.

"Rest easy, Lesley... No one expected the beast to be so strong. You weren't too weak; you were just unlucky. If you chose any other beast, the results wouldn't have been like that..."

The disciple who had mocked Fane cried incredibly intensely as if he had lost his whole family overnight. The other disciples around him hurriedly helped him up, offering sincere consolation.

"Arne, don't be too sad. We should bring Lesley's corpse away for now..."

They did not lower their voices as they spoke.

Fane was relatively close enough to the stage, so he had heard their conversation. Thus, he heard the name of this particular disciple-Arne.
