Chapter 222 Jeff Royal Departure

Hearing this, Litton frowned.

The Duke of Tours is a legendary berserker who hates evil and has a very bad temper. In the past, he and the Duke of Dover were the most incompatible. However, no one would have expected that the first person to support the Duke of Dover today would be the Duke of Tours.

"Yes, we have worked so hard to organize a duel competition. It's fine if the royal family wants to interfere, but now they want to take all the participants of our duel competition. I'm afraid this is a bit unfair!"

"Since the royal family wants someone, then just give the duel tournament back to us."

"Indeed, the duel tournament's dimensions and rewards were originally the assets of the seven of us old guys. We did it to train talents for the entire kingdom. The royal family also fully agreed to it at the time, but we didn't expect that the royal family would even poach the people we arranged. In this case, we might as well just disband."

Several other dukes appeared and spoke out in support of the Duke of Dover.

Although they hated the Duke of Dover's temper, the interests of the seven dukes were one, and the royal family was their common enemy.

Supporting the Duke of Dover is fighting for their own interests.

Especially this time, the royal family reached into their pockets and directly conquered Wayne, the current master of the duel tournament. So next, will they directly take the resources used to host the duel tournament for themselves?

Even if the royal family doesn't have this intention, can Wayne let go of these resources under his command?

Duke Leighton's face also turned ugly. These seven dukes actually united to put pressure on the royal family.

When he subdued Wayne before, he really didn't think too much about it. He just saw that Wayne was so young, but he had comprehended the prototype of his own holy domain, so he thought he had good talent and could be used for his own benefit.

But no one expected that Winnie's promotion to a legendary warrior would trigger a series of chain reactions.

More importantly, Duke Leighton originally felt that although Duke Dover was powerful, he and Wayne might be able to fight against Duke Dover.

But now we have seen the results, Duke Leighton was indeed thinking too much.

Of course, it is unlikely that the seven dukes would take action against him.

After all, on the surface, these seven dukes are still subordinates appointed by King Jeff and must respect the Jeff royal family.

As for other members of the royal family, that is even more impossible. These dukes cannot afford to lose face with that person.

"My Lords, your words are too kind. I just value Wayne's talent and cannot bear to let him waste his time on this high-level plane."

After some hesitation, Leighton decided to keep Wayne, a talented person. After all, he was a future duke and was very young.

As for the resources of the duel competition, Litton originally had no hope.

Duke Dover snorted coldly, "What about the resources we provided to Wayne? You think it's too simple to take him away with just one sentence!"

"If you want to take Wayne away, you must first return the resources we spent on Wayne."

Leighton did not refute, but the seven dukes cast a wide net in cultivating talents and invested a lot of resources in many people. Wayne was just the most outstanding one among them. Even if he had to compensate them, he would still make a profit.

"Well, I can return to you the resources you invested in Wayne."

"Your Majesty the Duke..."

Wayne interrupted Leighton. He controlled not only the high-level plane of the duel competition, but also all the resources of several intermediate planes. He was no less powerful than a marquis, otherwise he would not have reached his current level at such a young age.

"Okay, don't worry, the royal family won't treat you unfairly."

Litton spoke up in time and interrupted Wayne's dissuasion.

Don’t you see that the seven dukes are eyeing you covetously?

If they want to survive, they must put these worldly possessions aside. Otherwise, how could the seven dukes tolerate Wayne's betrayal?

Seeing that Litton and Wayne agreed to his first condition, Duke Dover continued, "Also, this contestant from my Dover family, you actually violated the rules of the duel contest and dealt with Richard. You also need to compensate Richard."

"I think it's better to give the championship reward of this duel competition to Richard."

Obviously, the Duke of Dover spoke up for Richard.

A touch of emotion flashed through Richard's heart. The Duke of Dover had no relation to him, but he had helped him a lot.

Bruce's great-grandfather did have some objections, but it was he who rescued Bruce from the duel arena and did not say anything.

"However, Richard also violated the rules of the duel competition. He relied on the magical beast he summoned to defeat Her Highness Winnie. Otherwise, he would not be a match for Her Highness Winnie at all."

The legendary referee reminded.

The Duke of Dover's eyes flashed, and the legendary referee immediately shook his body and hid behind Wayne.

The Duke of Dover looked at this scene and laughed out loud.

"I forgot about you just now. You were the first person to break the rules and force Richard to stay on the duel field after Richard admitted defeat and surrendered!"

The Duke of Dover's eyes were very sharp, and Leighton pulled Wayne, who was standing in front of the legendary referee, to make way between the Duke of Dover and the legendary referee.

Obviously, in the eyes of Duke Leighton, the value of this legendary strong man is not as high as Wayne. Leighton feels it is not worth it to anger Duke Dover for an ordinary legendary strong man.

The legendary referee was stunned, looking at Wayne being dragged away by Duke Leighton with a deathly pale face.

You know, he had long since defected to Wayne and betrayed the seven dukes. Otherwise, after receiving Wayne's order, he would not have left Richard on the duel field without giving face to the Dover family.

But I didn't expect that the person left behind might be me.

Leighton took Wayne and the royal family members away from the duel tournament dimension.

Participating in the duel competition this time is not a loss for the royal family.

At least they managed to win over the talent Wayne. Although the only drawback was that Winnie did not take this opportunity to be promoted to a legendary warrior, the royal family had abundant resources and Winnie did not suffer any irreparable injuries, so she could still look for opportunities to be promoted to a legendary warrior later.

As for this legendary referee, he felt more and more pressure as he watched the Duke of Dover approaching step by step.

Finally, the legendary referee's heart collapsed. He put aside the dignity of a legendary strong man, knelt on the ground and begged for mercy loudly.

"Lord Duke of Dover, I was bewitched and deceived by that liar Wayne, so I followed his orders and trapped Richard."

"I've understood. Wayne is just a villain. I'm willing to work for the Dover family in the future, even if I'm a slave."

The legendary referee's words also made the Duke of Dover stop in his tracks.

However, the Duke of Dover did not make a decision, but turned and looked at Richard.

"Richard, do you think I should kill him?"
