The Almighty Dragon General

Chapter 1361
“Contrary to your reputation, you don’t seem that talented.”
The Golden Knight, Kayne, glanced at James with obvious disappointment.
He shook his head and smirked. “I thought the Dragon King of Sol would have a more commanding presence, but you don’t look
particularly impressive.
There’s a word for guys like you in Sol, right? What was it? Oh, right. I think it was... pretty boy?”
James simply smiled indifferently.
He was not infuriated.
Seeing Kayn provoking James, the Queen did nothing to stop him. Instead, she cast Kayn a meaningful gaze.
Kayn immediately understood her intentions.
Whoosh!
Suddenly, he unsheathed the long golden sword hung around his waist and pointed it at James.
James said calmly, “What’s the meaning of this? Is this the way Durandal treats its guests? If so, I’ll return to Sol immediately.”
“Durandal is a nation that treasures strength above all. We welcome guests with a duel. If you’re strong, you’ll be given due
respect.
If you’re weak, then you should turn back. Durandal does not welcome weaklings.”
Kayn’s arrogance made Henry grit his teeth. He would have taken action if not for the formalities being upheld.
The nobles of Durandal continued watching as if it were a play in a theatre.
Everyone was familiar with Kayn.
He was a Golden Knight from the Keyes family. His family held great power in the country, and he himself was a strong knight.
Everyone was curious if the Dragon King from Sol really lived up to the rumors about him.

James looked at the Queen.
Seeing that the Queen did not interfere, James smiled and said, “Your Majesty, it’ll be inappropriate for me to fight him.
This duel would end up being one-sided. Do you have anyone stronger in Durandal?”
At that moment, James was unwilling to appear weak.
His casual joke caused an uproar among the people present.
The Queen’s brows were drawn together.
The Dragon King from Sol was overstepping his bounds.
“Brat, you must have a death wish.”
Kayn was furious when he heard James’ remark.
He was made a Golden Knight at the age of 25, which was already an impressive achievement.
No one dared to look down on him.
Yet, here this foreigner was, underestimating and belittling him in front of the Queen and nobility.
Kayn bellowed furiously, “Draw your sword, James.”
James refused to back down after being challenged to a duel in a foreign country. He currently represented Sol’s might.
“I don’t need a sword to beat you,” James kept his cool.
“Ahh, damn you!!!”
Kayn face turned red with rage.
He raised his long, golden sword, took a few steps backward, and moved into a fighting stance.
James looked at him and smirked.
He could tell at a glance that his opponent did not have any actual combat experience and would have died instantly if he had
been on a real battlefield.

“Hyah! Haah! Hup! Hyah!”
Kayn rapidly swung his golden sword in the air.
To James, it was nothing but a flashy party trick.
“Insolent fool. I’ll teach you a lesson today!”
After slashing his sword through the air a few times, he thrust it at James.
“Ahh!!!”
Upon seeing Kayn attack with his sword, many noble women screamed out in fear. Some even covered their eyes, afraid to
watch the bloody scene unfold.
Kayn’s long golden sword closed in on James.
James raised his hand and used his fingers to catch the sword’s blade.
Kayn struggled to pull his sword out of James’ hands to no avail.
“Wh-What the...?”
Kayn’s expression changed from confidence to alarm, and beads of sweat formed on his forehead.
While holding onto the sword, James began to evaluate Kayn’s strength.
His strength had reached the upper limit of External Martial Arts and could be on par with Sol’s grandmasters.
According to Sol’s ranking system for the ancient martial world, Kayn’s capabilities were of a first-ranked grandmaster.
Clank!
James exerted a small amount of force as he twisted his fingers ever so slightly and a loud metallic snap tore through the
silence.
Following the sound, the majestic-looking blade of Kayn’s sword was snapped clean in half.
