"Your Majesty, you can't completely trust the knights. There must be one of your trusted aides among the ten people who will win the competition.”There were only two people in a magnificent room. One of them was about 35 years old and had red hair. His handsome facial features were clear and three-dimensional, and a pair of blue eyes flickered with an unknown light. The other person had the eyes of an eagle and the steps of a wolf. He was about forty or fifty years old.
"Sigh, I know that too. You can go down and make the arrangements." The heroic middle-aged man said.
" Yes..." The man left. After he walked far away, the corners of his mouth suddenly curled up...
A year passed in the blink of an eye.
"Ah Si, you can't do this. I can meditate for fifteen minutes under the waterfall, but you only have ten minutes.”Lu Fei said proudly as he rubbed his nose.
"Your mental strength is only slightly stronger than mine. When have I not been faster than you when I ran the mountain?”Ah Si argued.
"Which big chunk? It's just a few seconds." Lu Fei rolled his eyes.
"Aiya, I won't talk to you anymore. Uncle said that he has something to say to us today, so we'll go together.”Ah Si hugged Lu Fei and went home together.
During this year, the two of them trained together every day, and their friendship had improved a lot.
"Uncle, we're back. What's the good news today?”Ah Si asked curiously as soon as he entered the room.
"Let me first tell you about the difference in the ranks of the demons outside.”Uncle said.
"Hmm? Why did he suddenly mention the demons outside? Are we going out?" Ah Si asked anxiously.
Lu Fei also said anxiously,"Yes, yes."”
"Don't be anxious. Wait for me to tell you slowly.”Uncle replied.
"Demons are divided into eight stages. In the initial stage, there were skeleton demons and zombie demons. They were completely unconscious and only cared about killing. Their intelligence was extremely low, and their martial strength was also low.”
"The second stage is the Vampire Demon Clan and the Giant Stone Demon Clan. Their combat strength is equivalent to a human of the third step, but they all have obvious weaknesses. As for the giant stone monsters, although they had high attack power, their attacks were slow and their movements were slow.”
"The third stage is the demon summoner. Their attack power is not high, and they don't look eye-catching. Moreover, their bodies are especially fragile, but their intelligence has increased a lot. As their name suggested, ghosts could summon zombies, skeleton ghosts, zombie dogs, and zombie leopards. If it wasn't for the fact that he was a Grade-5 martial artist, it would be difficult for him to do anything to them.”
Uncle drank a mouthful of water and continued,"The fourth stage is the mutated demon race. They had human faces and beast bodies. They had the appearance of a human and the nature of a beast. They also had their own thoughts and could cultivate and use weapons. Most of them lived in groups.”
"The fifth stage is the high-level demon summoner. They themselves know some magic, and some of them can even summon magical beasts above the magical beast species to fight. It's very troublesome.”
"The sixth stage is the possession demon and the mind draining demon. One of them can possess martial artists below the seventh step and control them to do something. The mind draining demon can bewitch people's hearts.”
"The seventh stage is the Demon Venerable stage. Generally, they have ancient mounts and their combat strength is equivalent to grade-9. Moreover, they had the bloodline of the Demon King and combat strength. If the two Demon Lords joined forces, they could probably take down a country. Fortunately, the Demon Lords looked down on each other.”
" As for the last stage, the Demon King, there's nothing much to say. I've never seen him before. I only know how cruel he is. Nearly 500 years ago, a hero sealed him with a huge sacrifice of seven deaths and two lives.”
"And those who can also mutate are usually called Lords. A Lord's attack power was one or two levels higher than an ordinary one.”
With that, the uncle placed a round stone on the ground.
"Come, Ah Si, you go first. Use all your strength to attack this stone.”
"Hmm? Ah Si touched the back of his head and said hesitantly,"It can't be broken, right?"
"Cut the crap!" Uncle interrupted Ah Si.
"Good!" Ah Si replied.
After saying that, Ah Si focused his mind and set up the spear rack. His entire expression changed. He took a deep breath and felt as if the air around him had frozen. Ah Si shouted loudly, and his spear pierced forward with a piercing sound!
The stone emitted an orange glow.
"Not bad, not bad. Two levels. I thought you weren't working hard and only had one level.”the uncle teased.
"Hu…Hu…Ah? Two! Who isn't working hard! If you don't come from the same source, you can try it too. I reckon you're only at the first stage!”Ah Si was still teasing Lu Fei while panting after using all his strength.
"Bullshit!" Lu Fei retorted.
After saying that, Lu Fei also set up his spear rack. He held his breath and focused his attention. Suddenly, he focused his spear and stabbed forward. It was obvious that Lu Fei's aura was even more shocking.
The stone also gave off an orange light, but it was obvious that Lu Fei's light was brighter and lasted longer than Ah Si's.
"Lu Fei is also at the second stage, but he's obviously almost at the third stage.”The uncle patted Lu Fei's head.
"No, no. Thank you, Uncle." Lu Fei scratched his head and said shyly.
"Are you secretly practicing behind my back?”Ah Si asked in jealousy.
"No!" Lu Fei argued.
He saw two youths standing on one leg on the wooden stake. Under the scorching sun, her upper body was bare, and her muscles were very tight.
"I say, October, did you move? It's only been twenty minutes.”
"I didn't move. You moved on your own, so you think I moved.”
"No, I'm fine for an hour.”
"Ah Suo, keep bragging."
Ten minutes later.
"Hey, Ah Suo, don't come down. Isn't it an hour?" October joked.
"Aiyo…aiyo…I'll let you win today, save your strength!”Ah Suo limped as he followed Shi Yue.
"Forget it, I won't tease you anymore. Grandpa said that we should hurry back today.”
"What? It's coming, it's coming!" Ah Suo rubbed his legs. Keep up with October.
The two of them returned home.
"Grandpa, we're back." Shi Yue said.
"You're back." After saying that, Grandpa placed a stone on the ground.
"What is this?" Ah Suo asked in confusion.
"Strength Testing Stone." Grandpa replied.
"Come, Ah Suo, you first attack the stone with all your strength.”Grandpa said.
Ah Suo thought that he couldn't cut it into pieces, so he cut it lightly.
Grandpa slapped Ah Suo on the back of his head.
"Brat, what are you doing? Hurry up and attack with all your strength!" Grandpa said to Ah Suo, angry and amused.
"Aiyo…Okay…Okay." Ah Suo quickly replied, not daring to be mischievous anymore.
Ah Suo suddenly looked solemn, and his body emitted a sharp sword intent. He took out the sword rack and took a deep breath. "Open it!" he shouted. A sword slashed out.
The stone emitted an orange glow.
" Middle-stage second rank. It's alright." Grandpa patted Ah Suo's head.
"Hehehe." Ah Suo smiled proudly.
"Come, come, come. It's your turn in October. You're definitely not as good as me. Even Grandpa praised me.”Ah Suo said proudly.
"Get up." October ignored him.
October closed her eyes and got into position. He felt the air around him freeze. Suddenly, Shi Yue opened his eyes and shouted,""Star Destroyer!" He hacked at the stone.
The stone emitted a golden light.
"This is a paragraph, right? See, you can't compare to me!" Ah Suo teased.
Grandpa gave Ah Suo another chestnut.
"Shiyue, you…you're at the third step, faster than I was back then. There's a successor!" Grandpa said in surprise.
"What? I, I'm actually already at the third step." Shi Yue was a little stunned.
Grandpa smiled from ear to ear and stroked October's head.""Not bad, little fellow."
"No, no. It's all thanks to Grandpa's guidance." Shiyue scratched her head and said shyly.
"What's so great about it? I'll soon be at the third level too!”Ah Suo muttered in a low voice, not convinced.
In an empty space. A young girl's face was neither raised nor lowered, neither to the left nor to the right. There was no expression. His forehead was not high, and his eyebrows were not furrowed. He closed his eyes slightly, his gaze firm and steady. His expression was calm, his nose bridge was straight, and his chin was slightly forward.
His neck and back were straight. Concentrate the strength on the back of the neck and treat the area below the shoulders as a whole. Relax your shoulders, keep your back straight, and tighten your hips. Concentrate the strength on the lower part of the leg, from the knee to the toes. His abdomen was tight and his waist was not bent. The scabbard of the difference between the ribs was tightly pressed to the abdomen, preventing the belt from loosening. This made the girl's appearance even more serious.
The two hands holding the two sabers kept their thumbs and index fingers relaxed, the middle finger neither tight nor loose, and the ring finger and little finger tightly clenched.
Suddenly, the girl took a step forward with her right foot and used her ancestral Aso knife technique. It was done so smoothly and with such vigor.
"As expected of my daughter. She can do whatever she wants.”The middle-aged man had been quietly standing beside her for a long time.
The girl smiled and wiped the sweat off her face."No, no. It's all thanks to Father's teachings."
The middle-aged man also laughed. He patted the girl's head and said,"Alright, alright. Come and use your full strength on this stone."”After saying that, he placed a stone on the ground.
"What kind of father is this?" The girl asked in confusion.
"Strength Testing Stone. You can see his strength." the middle-aged man replied.
Thus, the girl assumed the same posture as before and used her full strength to attack.
The stone emitted an orange glow.
"Not bad, girl! It would be Tier 2 in a year! As expected of my daughter!" The middle-aged man smiled proudly and patted the girl's head.
"I say, Ah Yi, you're going to die, aren't you? You're actually controlling two puppets with a hit rate of over 90%!”Kong said in surprise.
"Ah Kong, you can do it too, but your accuracy is not as high as mine.”Ah Yi said calmly.
"You two little fellows are monsters, right? You can control two normal puppets in a year with such a high accuracy rate!”The uncle said in surprise.
"This is nothing! My goal is to control the puppets in the sky!”Ah Yi said proudly.
"That's right, that's right," Kong echoed.
"Good, good, good, two little monsters. I'm especially looking forward to you.”Uncle said with a smile.
" San, these people look so strange…so scary…" Si Ying trembled as he followed behind San.
"Don't be afraid. Haven't you been training hard? None of them are your match. Besides, if you follow me, they won't dare to disturb you.”Third, he said indifferently.
Si Ying felt that the man in front of him was becoming more and more unfamiliar. He had followed the man in front of him for a year and had seen many strange and terrifying people. For example, the Samodan he had seen in the South was a man with a sheep's head and a tiger's body. His mount was actually a dragon made of bones! When they talked to San, San always told me to rest.
Forget it, I'm a three-year-old. He's so gentle, he can't be a bad person.
None of this mattered anymore.
