The Yin Yang Four Symbols Array has four key positions.

These correspond to four fortifications, with stone pillars in each, serving as the array’s focal points.

As a name-recognizing element of the Knight’s Code, it instantly provided a method to dismantle the array and bring darkness upon North County.

Once the method is provided, ensuring its smooth execution is up to Louis XVII and his Imperial Knight Order to consider.

At this moment, Louis XVII slowly drew his own Knight’s Greatsword.

The sword, as large as a giant cross, was raised high by his mortal body, and the laziness on his face vanished, transforming him into a figure of divine solemnity.

He spoke with a clear, resonant voice.

"Aura, Holy Judgment Greatsword!"

Holy light enveloped the Knight’s Greatsword, illuminating the entire Cyan Dragon Array with dazzling brilliance.

"Aura, Dynamic Empowerment!"

A cyan aura enveloped Louis XVII and his warhorse.

"Aura, Beast’s Strength!"

"Aura..."

Someone once used this phrase to evaluate an Imperial Knight: a knight who can’t recite dish names is not a good knight.

Of course, merely reciting dish names doesn’t necessarily make one a good knight, as in the case of Zhan Ning.

Back in the City of Extreme Evil, Zhan Ning conquered Imperial women with his superb bedroom skills and spoke of Louis XVII.

He discarded all ineffective auras and only chose those recorded in the Knight’s Code, which aligned with his combat style and offered auxiliary effects.

He’s a knight who has embedded ’combat’ into his very bones and perfected it!

Though he usually appears lazy and carefree, his true power is felt when in battle, showing what a true Tier Nine Imperial Knight is!

Before him, Louis XVII’s imposing presence rose rapidly at a visible rate.

As his reciting of dish names continued, various powerful and bizarre auras enveloped him, making Louis XVII shine with radiant brilliance beneath his feet.

"We can’t let him continue like this."

"We must interrupt him; otherwise, if he fully stacks up his auras, it won’t be just us who can’t stop him—not even another Tier Nine Ultimate Powerhouse might manage!"

An Imperial Knight fully stacked with combat auras is an opponent nobody wishes to provoke.

At least during the duration of these aura effects, he is almost invincible!

As Shang Siteng’s words fell, Gongyang Jin took action.

Sword Qi surged as countless golden sword energies manifested around her, transforming into a Golden Dragon made of this energy under her guidance.

The dragon’s head drooped slightly, exuding a mighty presence without anger.

Powerful Sword Intent and Sword Qi surged in waves in all directions.

"Not enough." Li Tugui stood out, holding a Ruler.

"Here, Sword Qi surges!"

Li Tugui released a precept, creating an invisible circle beneath his feet overlapping with the Cyan Dragon Array.

In executing this move, his face turned deathly pale, and his Spiritual Power was completely drained in an instant.

Such enormous cost was justified.

Countless strands of Sword Qi appeared out of thin air, rushing towards the sacred aura of the skybound Golden Dragon and merging within.

In the blink of an eye, the Golden Dragon expanded dozens of times in size, increasing its imposing presence multiple times over!

Li Tugui’s actions provided the people of Great Xia with a strategy—they may not match Louis XVII in combat alone, but they had the numbers.

Louis XVII could stack auras, and so could they!

"Sword Spirit Wine enhances Sword Qi’s power," Brewer Chen Zui presented his rare, treasured wine to Gongyang Jin.

"We may not have means to enhance sword techniques, but we can strike together."

Dong Dachui gestured, and weapons of every type, swords, spears, staves, and halberds, lined up densely behind him.

Shang Siteng, Nuannuan Fan Chaohui, and others also unleashed their most powerful attacks.

"Go!"

After drinking the Sword Spirit Wine, Gongyang Jin, with a dragon’s roar resounding in the sky, made the already-huge Golden Dragon even more formidable.

Enough is enough.

Further strengthening would render Gongyang Jin unable to control the dragon, so with a clear shout, she commanded the Sword Qi Golden Dragon to strike fiercely towards Louis XVII! 𝑓𝑟𝑒𝘦𝓌𝑒𝑏𝑛𝑜𝘷𝑒𝘭.𝒸𝘰𝑚

The reinforced Golden Dragon opened its wide mouth, descending from the sky, aiming to devour Louis XVII whole.

The sharp golden Sword Qi transformed into razor-sharp dragon teeth, biting into the knight auras surrounding Louis XVII!

Rumble!

Sword Qi and aura clashed; "dragon teeth" shattered, yet new golden Sword Qi perpetually surged forward.

Meanwhile, the other Great Xia members launched their attacks one after another.

Sunset Bow, Moon Concealing Halberd, Soul-Slaying Blade, Mountain-Breaking Spear... Tier Eight weapons charged at the Knight’s Aura as if they were limitless.

Bluefin Tuna, Hairy Crab, Large Lobster... Undoubtedly, these were new dishes crafted by Eater Fan Chaohui.

The powerhouses of Great Xia displayed all their prowess, launching all-out offensives against the Tier Nine Imperial Knight, Louis XVII.

Faced with their assault, Louis XVII raised an eyebrow, a smirk of mockery playing on his lips.

"It’s useless."

"The gap between us isn’t something that numbers can bridge; can your attacks shatter even one of my defense auras?"

The next second.

A crisp cracking sound rang out.

One of the pale blue auras beneath Louis XVII shattered silently and vanished.

"Very well, I retract my previous statement."

Louis XVII looked up at the Great Xia individuals before him, placing the giant cross-shaped Knight’s Greatsword by his side, "To clarify: your combined full-force attack only managed to break one of my defense auras."

This correction was even more mocking.

"I have many such defense auras."

"Do you?"

Each one of them had expended all their Spiritual Power for that full-force attack. If such an attack didn’t hit, it lost all strategic threat.

In this light, every individual from Great Xia North County devoting their utmost efforts did seem reckless, hence Louis XVII’s mocking words after surviving the assault.

At this moment, an abrupt voice rang out.

Shang Siteng abruptly lifted her head, staring at Louis XVII across from her.

"What are you so arrogant about?"

"We can unleash this kind of attack many times as well."

As if to respond to Shang Siteng’s words, a rich emerald light emanated from each Great Xia member.

With the appearance of this emerald glow, their depleted Spiritual Power was replenished to peak condition in an instant!

"Don’t forget, each fortification in the Yin Yang Four Symbols Array has its unique amplification."

And the amplification effect of the Cyan Dragon Array was energy restoration!

"Now, it’s the second round."
