Ross frowned and said, "Jacques is still young. He is not the strongest among the younger generations in the village. Your grandson is much older than him. I will not let Jacques compete with your grandson."
Pepidou raised his lips and said, “No, I’m not saying let the two of them fight, what I mean is that if any young man in your village can win the Pete of my family, you can take our place.
Of course, if no one in your village can beat Pete, then your place will belong to us."
Hearing what Pepidou said, Ross couldn't help but hesitate.
He himself was not afraid of Peppidou. Although the strength of Lagarde Village was stronger than that of York Village, it was not much stronger. If the two families really fought, it would only end in a lose-lose situation. York Village would not suffer much loss.
The only person Ross cares about is Pepidou's son Salas. Salas is much stronger than Ross himself and has now joined the Gothic Mercenaries.
Salas is a cruel and ruthless person. He is a guy who will make trouble for no reason and will never give in. If they provoke him, York Village will suffer some losses.
"Okay, I can agree to the fight, but you have to ensure that it is fair and just."
Ross knew that Pate had at most just entered the Spiritual Sea stage, while the two brothers Muller and Muto in their village had already entered the Spiritual Sea stage for some time. The two sides were evenly matched, and in a round-robin battle, Pate should not be able to defeat the two.
When Pepidou heard that Ross agreed to the bet, his face lit up and he laughed, "Okay, as long as you agree. For this bet, I have invited witnesses. The winner of the match is one point, and no one can cheat!"
After Pepidou finished speaking, he shouted towards the village entrance, and soon, an old man in luxurious robes walked in accompanied by several people.
The old man looked ruddy and a little arrogant.
After seeing the old man, Ross was stunned for a moment, then he hurriedly went up to him and saluted, saying, "Ross Xos greets Sir Gabriel. I didn't expect you to come in person."
The old man looked at Ross's respectful expression, nodded with satisfaction, and said, "I owed Pepidou a small favor, and he asked me to come here as a witness, so I came.
But don't worry, I won't stand on his side, I'm just a witness.
I will report the result of your fight to the master truthfully."
After hearing the old man's words, Ross's expression relaxed a lot.
The person standing in front of him was the third steward of the Yaxi family in Golden Palm City. Although he was nominally only a servant of the Yaxi family, he was a steward after all, which was much higher than those country folk like them.
If the other party insisted on helping Peppidou, he would not dare to refuse this opportunity. After all, the Axi family was the owner of the Golden Palm City territory, and he could not afford to offend them.
After both parties agreed on the rules, they came together to the open space where the young people in the village usually practiced.
A group of villagers gathered at the edge of the open space to watch the game, and the looks they gave Peppidou were not very friendly.
Peppidou naturally didn't care what these people thought of him. He dared to come here today to ask for a duel, so he was naturally not afraid of offending Ross.
He was determined to get the spot in Ross's hand. His two grandsons were both very outstanding. If they could both enter the Golden Palm City, the status of their Lagarde village would surely soar.
Now several nearby villages are expanding rapidly, and it will probably not be long before they are integrated into a small town.
If the strength of their Lagarde village far exceeds that of other villages, when they are merged into a town, Peppidou will most likely serve as the mayor, and his family will naturally be able to obtain more and more benefits.
Soon, Peppidou's grandson Petr stood in the middle of the open space. He looked to be about the same age as Ye Li, but he only had the strength of the early Spirit Sea period. He was still too weak for Ye Li, and his aptitude was also very limited.
After all, in the Ye family, apart from Ye Li himself, Ye Canglong and Ye Tianyi had also reached the Linghai stage a long time ago, and now they might have entered the Lingdan stage. Their aptitude was definitely much better than that of Pete.
Pate looked very strong, with a broad forehead. Although he was not very old, his face was full of fat like his grandfather, and he looked unkind.
Standing on the field, he looked at the young people from York Village with a provocative look on his face, his eyes filled with contempt.
The young men were full of vigor and vitality, and could not withstand his provocation. One of them immediately rushed out and came to the open space.
"Pate, let me meet you first and see what level you are at. You dare to challenge our York Village."
Ye Li also remembered the name of the person who rushed to go on stage. His name was Mika, and his strength was only in the late Spirit Sea stage.
Ye Li estimated that he didn't know that Pete had reached the Spirit Sea stage, so he dared to go on the field to fight. There was almost no suspense in the battle between the two.
Before Ross could open his mouth to stop him, the impatient Mika had already rushed towards Pete.
Of course, he rushed very fast, and the results came even faster.
The talismans on Mika's body had not been completely drawn, and he had not yet transformed into a beast, but he had already lost the game.
Pet had no intention of using his full strength. He simply released a slightly more powerful attack spell and used the power gap between the two realms to directly defeat Mika.
It was not until this moment that many young people in York Village knew that Pete had reached the Spiritual Sea Stage.
While watching the battle, Ye Li carefully observed the talismans drawn by the spiritualists of the Miracle Continent.
The talismans drawn by Ye Li himself looked like a collection of words, while the talismans of the Miracle Continent looked like a combination of graphics.
Several circles and lines are divided into regular groups, finally forming a mysterious pattern.
Although the two drawing methods are different, from Ye Li's own perspective, there seem to be some commonalities between them.
Both of them portray the power of spiritual essence and consciousness in mysterious trajectories to achieve the effect of controlling power. Since the two can form similar effects, they naturally have many similarities.
Ye Li observed the other party's movements with his observation ability greatly enhanced by his new spiritual power. He realized something from it, and his understanding of talismans seemed to have deepened a lot.
The battle between the two was decided in an instant. Mika was defeated in one blow and lay on the ground for a long time without reacting.
It took him a long while to realize that Pete was no longer a spiritual talisman master in the Spiritual Mist Stage, and he was not even qualified to fight with the other party.
He had rashly come out to fight with the other party just now, which was simply asking for trouble.
