Gautier had anticipated that Emmanuel might suddenly target him, which was why he had deliberately positioned himself over a hundred yards away. Yet, to his shock, Emmanuel still attacked him from such an incredible distance.

“Miles, help me!”

Fortunately, Teddy had left him with capable fighters, including Miles. But Miles was terrified as well. Emmanuel seemed to belong to an entirely different realm of martial arts–what kind of fighter could unleash such a violent attack from that far away?!

Is he even human?!

Without hesitation, Miles grabbed a nearby member of the Grand Hunt Alliance and threw him into the path of Emmanuel’s attack before retreating with Gautier to the rear.

“Ahhh!”

The poor soul, who had nothing to do with the situation, instantly became Emmanuel’s first casualty.

Boom!

Watching Emmanuel kill someone from a hundred yards away was both soul–shaking and visually stunning.

Those who had initially intended to join Aora, Gwain, and Yorick in their assault against Emmanuel immediately hesitated, stepping back to reconsider whether they were qualified to approach the battlefield. After all, this was a fight between apex predators–no rabbit should be sticking their nose into a brawl among tigers!

“I’ll deal with you later, Verkade–hahaha!” Emmanuel’s blood was pumping, his spirit soaring with exhilaration.

Facing such overwhelming odds, he knew there was a high chance he wouldn’t make it out alive. So, he decided to treat it as his last service to his country.

Pointing straight at Yorick, he roared, “Come on, Yorick Dotson! Let me show you the power of Chanaea’s martial arts!”

Roar!

Wasting no time, Emmanuel unleashed the first technique of the Dragon–Breaking Palm: Dragon Roar!

Yorick’s eyes gleamed with excitement as he leaped into the air to meet Emmanuel head–on, throwing a Savage Tiger Strike to counter the incoming palm.

Fist and palm collided with a thunderous impact, and Emmanuel let out a furious shout, twisting his arm to deflect Yorick’s fist. Without pause, he struck out with both hands toward Gwain and Aora, who had been eyeing the opportunity to strike.

Both men were caught off guard. They hadn’t expected Emmanuel to still have the strength to attack them after clashing with Yorick at full force.

Their first instinct was to dodge. Neither of them wanted to waste energy trading blows with Emmanuel- they preferred to wait for the others to wear him down and then swoop in for the kill.
