On the way to the training ground, the two of them walked side by side.
Qiao Ji asked Ferlin," What skills do knights usually need to learn?”
"Do you know what a knight is?" Ferlin asked.
" A group of cavalry with martial strength." Qiao Ji thought for a moment and replied.
"Hahahaha…you're really special.”
Ferlin suddenly let out a hearty laugh." I thought you would answer something like loyalty, passion, and bravery.”
"Maybe there is such a person. However, it's too little."
Qiao Ji stated the facts." Most knights don't care about these things. They only care about whether the sword in their hands can bring them anything.”
"There are some things that you shouldn't say in the future.”Ferlin's expression was complicated as he patted the youth's shoulder.
"Uncle, I only said this because you asked me.”Qiao Ji tilted his head.
"Cough ~ Back to the topic."
Ferlin coughed lightly and his expression became serious." Knights need to learn a lot of skills. The more powerful a knight is, the more he needs to know all aspects.”
His voice was steady and powerful." First of all, let me tell you about the Knight's level. After you have a clear understanding, you can choose what skills to learn.”
"Tell me." Qiao Ji pretended to be listening attentively.
"Knights are divided into nine grades and nine ranks. Among them, the ninth grade is the official knighthood of the empire. Rank-1 was the highest, while Rank-9 was the lowest. Each grade is divided into a main seat and a second seat."
Ferlin explained at a moderate speed," The official knights conferred by the empire can receive a subsidy from the empire. They can also enter the city defense army, border army, patrol department, and other departments of the major cities.”
"An official knight is a level lower than the nobles of the empire, but it is the goal that most people strive for.”
"It's too difficult for nobles to be rewarded.”
Ferlin shook his head. Apparently, he had dreams when he was young.
"Then what's with knight class 9?”Qiao Ji asked curiously.
"Oh, the empire can't afford to support too many official knights. Some knights have to eat and live, and some of them are loyal to the nobles.”
Ferlin sighed." The origin of the ninth class of knights is actually the nobles 'evaluation and reward of the knights.”
In order to give the knights who were loyal to them some dignity, the nobles learned to give knights a grade of nine.
"I see." Qiao Ji understood.
The former was the regular army of the Empire, while the latter was the private military force of the nobles.
"Uncle, what level are you?" Qiao Ji asked curiously.
"I was awarded a third-class knight in my family.”Ferlin said calmly.
Qiao Ji raised his eyebrows and asked," Are the third-class knights of other nobles as strong as Uncle?”
"How is that possible? There are high and low levels of strength among Knights. It's all based on the preferences of the nobles.”
Ferlin looked disgusted," Especially some small nobles, for the sake of face, they can't even defeat the other nobles 'level seven knights.”
He felt that the level of a level nine knight was being lowered by these people. He felt embarrassed for some level three knights.
It was not like the ninth-grade Knights conferred by the Empire, who relied solely on merit points to get to the top. It did not matter if their strength was inferior, but they had merit points. This was true glory.
"It seems more embarrassing." Qiao Ji held back his laughter.
"You just need to understand these contents.”
Ferlin continued to explain," The content that a knight needs to learn is sword techniques, spear techniques, horsemanship, archery... formations, herbalism, etiquette, history, language, direction identification..."
"..." Qiao Ji blinked his eyes as he listened. Was this training a knight? It was clearly to nurture an all-rounded superhuman.
"Hahaha…"
Ferlin looked at the young man's conflicted expression and laughed." Some are electives, so you don't have to learn them all. Also, you only need to know a little basic knowledge."”
For example, he had to know how to identify herbs, wild vegetables, and poisonous plants in herbalism.
Qiao Ji heaved a sigh of relief." What are the compulsory ones?”
"Swordsmanship, horsemanship, spearmanship, archery, these are the four martial arts that a knight must understand.”
"You have to learn etiquette, formations, and laws.”
" As for the other things that you can learn, you don't have to learn them…"
Ferlin paused for a moment and said meaningfully," If you want to be more outstanding, you should learn as much as you can.”
It was not easy for the young man to be with the young miss. If he did not have some ability, he would probably be assassinated, schemed against, framed, or even killed directly.
"I understand." Qiao Ji nodded.
He had a priority in his heart. He had to learn the important ones first. It was not too late to learn the rest when he had time.
The two of them chatted as they walked. After turning a corner in the corridor, their eyes widened.
A training ground the size of a colosseum.
Grand Duke Yoew's castle occupied an area that was equivalent to the size of a university on Earth.
"We've arrived at the training ground."
Ferlin turned his head and asked," I heard that you are best at swordsmanship?”
"Yes, I also know a little shield skill." Qiao Ji revealed a little more.
"There are weapons over there.”
Ferlin pointed at the rack of weapons and equipment in the training ground." I'll arrange for someone to come and find you.”
"No problem." Qiao Ji didn't ask Ferlin to fight him. The difference in strength was too great.
The young man's arrival attracted the attention of many knights. Some of them had heard something and gathered around.
"Eh? Wasn't this the slave that the young miss had bought?”
"Why is he here? Shouldn't he be serving the young miss and helping out with the chores?”
"Knight Ferlin is choosing a knight and wants to have a duel with him.”
"Who's going up? Teach the pretty boy a good lesson."
"Hey, don't go too far. When the young miss is angry, everyone will be in trouble.”
"It's fine. It won't scratch his beautiful face.”
"Hahahaha…"
“……”
"Since there's so much nonsense, hurry up and come out with a big mouth.”Ferlin shouted with a serious face.
He did not chase them away. If the youth wanted to gain respect, he had to rely on victory to show his might.
Otherwise, he would have to learn to get used to such a scene.
"I'll do it."
A knight with a loud voice raised his hand.
Ferlin nodded in agreement." You're the one, Kupp, sixth class knight.”
"Third class knight Ferlin, your judgment is not wrong.”Cooper boasted loudly.
Then, he pretended to be surprised and shouted," Look, our Miss's pretty boy is here.”
"..." Qiao Ji walked over expressionlessly. A single-handed sword hung from his waist, and a round-armed shield was on his left arm.
This voice sounded a little familiar. It was the person who was talking about him the loudest in the restaurant.
It seemed that the opportunity for revenge had come knocking on his door.
