Chapter 3: The Temple's Attention, Long Xingyu Arrives!

On the way back to Haoyue Palace, Ye Hua felt that even the wind on the road was sweet.

"Su Zhe, do you want to go to the Alliance Center to train?"

Ye Hua suddenly spoke, his voice tinged with reluctance.

Su Zhe is an orphan who has always been cared for by Nalan Shu and Ye Hua. At first, they did not report it to the Knight Temple, partly out of reluctance to part with Su Zhe.

Keep in mind that Su Zhe is only eight years old. For Ye Hua, it would be quite cruel to send away an eight-year-old child he has raised since childhood.

But now, Su Zhe has awakened a powerful talent and contracted with a sacred dragon with unlimited potential. Ye Hua asked himself honestly, he could still teach him for a short time, but in a few years, Su Zhe's strength would probably surpass his.

"I……"

Su Zhe paused for a moment, then said, "I want to stay at the Haoyue Branch Hall for a few years."

"Why?" Ye Hua asked, frowning.

“Because I feel you are capable of teaching me,” Su Zhe said, half-jokingly.

Ye Hua fell silent, and Su Zhe breathed a sigh of relief. To be honest, he really didn't want to go to the Holy City.

As the central city of the Human Federation, it is inevitable that there will be demon spies within its walls.

Su Zhe's 85 points of innate spiritual power, while not outstanding compared to Long Haochen's, is still of paramount importance in the history of humankind.

As things stand, the Bright Moon Branch Hall is sufficient to support Su Zhe's cultivation up to the fifth level.

Once he reaches the fifth rank and has some ability to protect himself, Su Zhe will consider whether to go to the Holy City to cultivate.

Upon returning to the Haoyue Branch Hall, Ye Hua immediately went to explain the situation of the Knight's Holy Mountain to Nalan Shu.

After discussing it, the two decided to report Su Zhe's talent to the temple.

The letter was delivered personally by Ye Hua, the Sky Knight.

Within just a few days, the temple's orders were issued.

The Knights' Temple has always placed great importance on cultivating geniuses.

First of all, there are enough resources for Su Zhe to have no worries before reaching the fifth rank.

In the original novel, Long Haochen gave away ten cases of the Peiyuan Liquid, which he was reluctant to drink himself, saying that Su Zhe could drink it whenever he was thirsty.

There are countless other advanced resources as well.

Secondly, the temple expressed respect for Su Zhe's idea, allowing him to stay at the Haoyue branch temple for the time being, and then come to the headquarters for better training once his cultivation level was higher.

Of course, the Temple is not Shrek Academy, so it will not let a genius like Su Zhe grow unsupervised. They hope that Su Zhe will choose a development path as soon as possible, and then send a corresponding expert to teach him one-on-one.

Development path...

Su Zhe did not hesitate and naturally chose to cultivate both punishment and protection, so that he could fully unleash his talents.

Holy City...

Yang Haohan looked at the envelope Ye Hua had sent him and felt a slight headache. The Knight Temple had finally produced a genius, but he had chosen the path of dual cultivation of punishment and protection.

As a powerful knight, Yang Haohan certainly understood the advantages, but correspondingly, the disadvantages were also obvious.

Dual cultivation means expending several times more energy than ordinary people, and a genius may progress slowly as a result.

However, Yang Haohan did not want to waste Su Zhe's talent. After pondering for a moment, he suddenly thought of a solution.

Since progress is slow, why not just find Su Zhe a teacher who can speed things up?

"Someone, go to Yulong Pass and send a message to Long Xingyu, asking him to come back." Speaking of Long Xingyu, Yang Haohan frowned. Ever since his lover was kidnapped by the demons on the battlefield, the boy had been very depressed. It would be perfect for him to teach Su Zhe.

Several days later, a figure descended upon the Bright Moon Branch Hall.

Walking into the training ground as if no one else was around, Long Xingyu's cold eyes swept over his surroundings.

Bai Yue was kidnapped by the demons, and even though he was a powerful Divine Seal Knight, he was powerless to help.

Nalan Shu rushed over upon hearing the news and immediately bowed to Long Xingyu upon seeing him.

"Nalan Shu, the Palace Master of Haoyue Branch Hall, greets Your Excellency."

Nalan Shu was secretly alarmed. Although he had never seen Long Xingyu in person, he could feel the oppressive aura emanating from him, a sense of powerlessness like an ant facing the heavens.

"Long Xingyu".

After saying those three words, Long Xingyu seemed to lose all interest in speaking and walked straight to a certain spot in the training ground where he could feel the pure aura of light elements.

Nalan Shu stood there, stunned. Long Xingyu… wasn’t that the one who controlled the throne of the God of Doomsday and Slaughter?!
Nalan Shu remembered Long Xingyu and was overjoyed. He had just spoken with a powerful Divine Seal Knight!
On the other side, watching Su Zhe diligently cultivate, Long Xingyu nodded secretly. As expected of a genius with 85 innate spiritual power, his cultivation speed was even better than his own.

"Go and practice with this sword."

Long Xingyu beckoned a wooden sword to Su Zhe.

Su Zhe snapped out of his meditation, instinctively took the wooden sword, and looked at Long Xingyu.

With messy hair and uneven stubble, who is this middle-aged man?
Su Zhe frowned in confusion, but still picked up the wooden sword and began practicing the basic skills of a knight.

No matter who the other person is, the subtle but undeniable sense of pressure they exude is genuine, so it's best to just listen to them obediently.

Long Xingyu remained calm as he watched Su Zhe execute a series of sword moves with effortless grace.

"Your basic skills are too poor. Summon your mount and let me see."

"Senior is..."

Su Zhe ignored the other party's words. A knight's mount is a private matter, just like a unique skill. Once it is exposed, the enemy will know how to deal with you.

"Su Zhe, this is Lord Long Xingyu of the Holy Temple, a powerful Divine Seal Knight. You must not be rude to him," Nalan Shu hurriedly introduced.

Long Xingyu!
Su Zhe was surprised. Was the temple so extravagant that it sent a Divine Seal Knight to teach him? He had thought that at most an eighth-tier knight would come.

Long Xingyu made no move, clearly not caring about any of this.

After performing a knightly salute, Su Zhe summoned the sacred dragon without hesitation.

"Landlord, come out."

Landlord is the name of Su Zhe's mount. He originally wanted to give it a more imposing name, but since this guy is a dragon and loves money too much, plus his cute appearance, Su Zhe gave him this name.

A small dragon body several meters long appeared, and Long Xingyu's eyes flashed with a moment of distraction. If he had had a ninth-tier sacred dragon to help him back then, would he have been able to protect Bai Yue?

Long Xingyu shook his head slightly, burying the thoughts in his mind.

“A very good mount, and your talent is equally outstanding. Tell the temple that I have agreed to stay,” Long Xingyu said to Nalan Shu.

Nalan Shu's face flushed, and he rubbed his hands excitedly. Long Xingyu's willingness to stay was not only an opportunity for Su Zhe, but also an opportunity for the entire Haoyue Branch Hall.

A powerful figure like him could offer a few words of advice in his spare time, which would benefit an ordinary knight for a lifetime!

"Get ready, get to work, we'll begin in ten minutes," Long Xingyu said, giving Su Zhe a deep look.

In the early chapters of *The Throne of Seals*, it was clearly stated that Long Xingyu became a Divine Seal Knight before meeting Bai Yue at the age of forty-seven. However, in the final chapters, Bai Yue says that Long Xingyu only achieved Divine Seal after meeting her. For the sake of the protagonist's development, we will stick to the earlier setting, that is, Long Xingyu became a Divine Seal Knight at the age of forty-seven.
