Bracckkkk!
Another charge, another knight dropped to the ground like a ragdoll after a full-power hit from Emery's lance. The sound of a lance breaking to pieces, splinters of wood flying off in all directions, coupled with the fallen knight, made the crowds cheer in excitement. Other than to witness the squires' skills, the audience mostly came here for this spectacle.
This was Emery's fourth charge in the jousting tournament. Each time he had to go, the crowd went wild. No matter what he did, he never seemed to disappoint the spectators.
Some of the crowd started to chant his name,
"Lanzelot! Lanzelot! Lanzelot!"
The second jousting round ended with 50 squires competing, after two more charges, the number dropped again to 10 top squires, with Emery being one among them.
