Nathan shook his head, "It's not a good idea."
Lucas widened his eyes in surprise. "Are you afraid?"
Nathan nodded. "I'm afraid you will blame me when you lose in front of your men."
Hearing that, Lucas' pupils dilated in anger. "Nathan, based on those words alone, I must fight you to determine who is truly stronger!"
Nathan was the Commander-in-chief of the North Army while Lucas was the Commander-in-chief of the West Army.
Both of them were responsible for defending their respective regions of the nation.
The upcoming fight between the two commanders caused the crowd to go wild.
Everyone, including the soldiers of the West Army and Nathan's subordinates, was filled with excitement as they knew it was going to be a grand spectacle.
Shortly, Lucas was already standing in the center of the training ground with a commanding presence while Nathan stood opposite him, giving out a heroic vibe.
Smiling smugly, Nathan called out, "General Ziegler, let's do this!"
Lucas roared, "Here I come!"
As he spoke, the granite floor beneath Lucas started to crack and sink.
Just like a cannonball, he exploded towards Nathan and threw a punch towards his chest.
His body flew ahead like a diving dragon while his fist had the power of a tank, carrying a fearsome amount of destructive power.
Tilting his body to the side, Nathan managed to avoid Lucas' punch.
However, Lucas' reflexes were as quick as lightning. In mid-air still, he twisted his torso to change direction and spun his elbow towards Nathan's face like a knife.
Raising his hand, Nathan blocked the attack with ease.
Following up, Lucas dropped his body back and launched a sweeping kick upward at Nathan's head.
Shielding himself with his right hand, Nathan managed to block another deadly kick.
Lucas' fighting style was typical of military hand-to-hand combat.
His movements were quick and brutal, without an ounce of grace in them.
Every attack of his was textbook-like and aimed at the opponent's vital organs. They solely relied on his speed and strength to annihilate the enemy.
