Bright warm sunrays dazzled up the entire castle, especially the battleground which was located quite close to the beautiful blue lake inside. Followed by four giant knights behind, Xanthus maintained his elegant posture as he walked into the sparing field, keeping his gaze fixated ahead.
Just as he had expected, Illay had already reached the field first, followed by his loyal Second Commander of Knights Maximus, who bowed to him respectfully as soon as he stepped his foot on the ground.
Moreover, there were also several low-rank knights under Commander Maximus who stood at a distance from the ground, on Illay's side in a straight queue and compact posture.
Just by glancing at them, Xanthus realized that all of them had come to support Illay. Where in comparison, Xanthus's side only had those 4 low-rank knights who even shivered to breathe in his presence.
