Since the sky was covered, the heavens began to show their holiness

Wushan Town

The quiet morning was broken by a series of childish voices. Hundreds of children gathered in a huge open space.

These children are of different ages, some are six or seven years old, and some are teenagers in their teens. They are as lively as the rising sun in the sky.

"Quiet!"

A cold voice broke the liveliness, instantly stopping the children, who were at an active age, from laughing and playing. Just like an army hearing the assembly horn, these children quickly divided into several queues according to their age, and the entire open space fell silent.

Seeing this, Hillman’s cold face showed a hint of satisfaction. He was obviously very satisfied with the condition of the children, but he still said indifferently: “Let’s start morning exercises.”

Suddenly, the one or two hundred children in the open space all assumed the "Qi Condensing Style" posture.

The Qi-Yun style is a widely spread method of physical exercise on the Magnolia Continent. After countless years of improvement, it has formed a very effective basic training method.

Looking at the performance of the children, Hillman nodded calmly. When he looked at a brown-haired child, his eyes were full of admiration.

“Master Lin Lei has such perseverance at such a young age. He will definitely become a powerful warrior in the future.”

Hillman commented secretly, but his good mood did not last long. As he looked at a child in the corner, a hint of disappointment appeared in Hillman’s eyes.

"!"

Veins popped out on Hillman’s forehead, and his angry voice echoed in the open space. In the corner, a black-haired child was performing a Qi-gathering posture. His posture and breathing were very standard, even more standard than those teenagers who were much older than him.

If one only looked at his posture, even Hillman had to admit that this boy had already grasped the essence of the Qi Condensation Style. However, his tightly closed eyes showed that he was playing a game of chess with Zhou Gong.

The children around seemed to have become accustomed to this and did not stop their morning exercises, still concentrating on practicing the Qi-Gathering Style.

As if awakened by Hillman’s roar, Aatrox’s face wrinkled slightly, with a look of dissatisfaction.

"Master Aatrox! You're being lazy again! The master said that you are not allowed to go home until noon today!"

Hillman glared at Aatrox and said with a look of disappointment.

Aatrox pouted his lips, as if he wanted to argue, but after looking at Hillman’s eyes, he nodded his head reluctantly.

As time passed, many children who had only been practicing the Qi Condensation Style for a short time could no longer hold on and fell to the ground like dominoes.

After a while, only Linley and Aatrox were still able to hold on. After a long time, even people from the youth group began to fall to the ground. Of the hundreds of people in the training group, only two children and a dozen older teenagers were still holding on.

Unlike Linley and the other boys who were sweating profusely, Aatrox looked relaxed. There was not even a trace of effort on his face.

Hillman felt even more regretful upon seeing this.

“If Master Aatrox could work as hard as Master Linley, with his talent, he would have probably already broken through to the third level warrior? The glory of the Baruch family…” Hillman muttered softly. The look he gave Aatrox was even more complicated. He was amazed at his talent, but also felt sorry for him for wasting this talent.

Upon hearing this, Aatrox couldn't help but roll his eyes. What did he mean by wasting this talent? If he wasn't afraid that it would be too shocking if it got out, he wouldn't have hidden his true strength.

An eight-year-old who has become a level six warrior, and who has achieved it by practicing the common basic training method of Qi Condensation. If this were to get out, not only the Fenlai Kingdom, but the entire Magnolia Continent would go crazy for it.

"Now that the Qi Condensation Method has reached a bottleneck, it seems that I have to find a way to get a secret book on fighting Qi."

While practicing the Qi Gathering Style, Aatrox began to ponder the path ahead. He had been stuck at the level of a sixth-level warrior for a long time, and the effect of practicing the Qi Gathering Style had become minimal. If he wanted to break through to the level of a seventh-level warrior, he could only rely on hard work or other opportunities besides practicing the Fighting Qi Codex.

Seeing Aatrox’s disapproving look, Hillman secretly sighed. Just as Hillman was about to continue persuading Aatrox, a powerful pressure came from all directions!

"Ok?"

Hillman was stunned and looked up at the sky in disbelief. In the distance, he saw a dark cloud quickly passing through the sky and soon hovering in the air.

"Monster... Black Dragon!"

Looking at the huge monster that seemed to be able to cover the sky, Hillman's eyes widened, and Roger Lowry beside him was so frightened that he dared not breathe.

Above the sky, a pitch-black dragon head emerged with an aura that made it impossible to look directly at it. Its face was stern and its eyes were full of disdain, which was a disdain for the life below.

This is a hundred-meter-long black dragon, floating in the air. Its two eyes as big as wheels are flashing with cold light, and its flapping flesh wings are stirring up hurricanes.

It trampled on the void, and every time it flapped its wings, a hurricane arose between heaven and earth, and the storm seemed to appear wherever it stepped.

"How could there be a monster of this level in Wushan Town!"

Hillman swallowed hard. This was a black dragon, one of the most powerful beasts in the world. Generally, an adult black dragon was at least level nine. Some were even holy beasts.

But whether it is a ninth-level magical beast or a holy-domain magical beast, they are far beyond the ability of the people of Wushan Town to contend with.

At this time, the young men who were doing morning exercises were completely shocked by the black dragon. They stared at the black dragon in the sky with wide eyes. The velociraptors they encountered not long ago were like tiny insects in front of this black dragon.

However, what was even more shocking was that as the black dragon approached, they discovered that there was a man in a gray robe standing on top of the black dragon's head.

Although his figure seemed so small compared to the Black Dragon, anyone with a discerning eye could tell that the Black Dragon was the magical beast he had tamed, and it was an unrivaled powerful being!
The gray-robed man didn't even look at the people on the ground. His eyes were always fixed on the sky not far away. He saw a middle-aged man with a long sword on his back walking in the air not far away. Even when facing the black dragon and the gray-robed man, his expression remained unchanged.

"Walking in the air! A powerful Saint!"

Hillman’s eyes widened and he cried out in horror. What on earth had happened to Wushan Town? A warrior who had tamed a level 7 magical beast, the velociraptor, had just arrived not long ago, and today two Saint Domain warriors had even arrived! One could confront a Saint Domain warrior who could walk in the air, and the other was undoubtedly also a Saint Domain warrior. It was just unknown whether he was a Saint Domain magician or a Saint Domain warrior. But whether it was a warrior or a magician, they were not people that the Wushan formation could afford to offend.
