While Rui was absorbed in his thoughts about the fight, the reactions of the crowd were not nearly as calm and collected.

Everybody was shocked.

Guardian Ieyasu had not challenged anyone ever since he challenged his predecessor, taking his spot as the number one Martial Artist.

He didn't feel the need, there was no one in the Squire Realm above him. He was the target of challenges.

Yet very few people challenged him, he was too powerful, and he showed no mercy. His opponents simply died.

The only one who did challenge him and managed to survive without dying was the second-ranked guardian, formerly the first-ranked.

Yet for some reason, Guardian Ieyasu had gone out of his way to challenge a guardian. Not only that, but the guardian that he did end up challenging was actually a really low-class guardian who was in the tenth class.
