Chapter 8 Selection Tournament Begins, Knight Number One

In the Holy City, Su Zhe arrived at the Alliance Government and handed his knight's badge to a guard.

After glancing at the rank on the badge, the guard's expression became even more solemn.

"Please come in."

After retrieving his badge, Su Zhe entered the Alliance Executive Government and went to find Ye Hua first.

Ye Hua is currently riding high. His nine points of innate spiritual power, which he had always considered a disgrace, has become his greatest asset, and he has already helped the Knight Temple train no less than a hundred fifth-tier knights.

Most of them have a dozen or so points of innate spiritual power, while a few are ordinary people with single-digit points of innate spiritual power.

"Xiao Zhe, it's been years since I've seen you." A rare smile appeared on Ye Hua's stiff face.

Years of habit have made it difficult for Ye Hua to change; even after his heart disease was resolved, his facial paralysis remained.

Su Zhe scratched his head sheepishly, "I've been too busy cultivating these past few years. It was only because of the Demon Hunter Team selection that I probably would have been taken by my master to Yulong Pass to participate in actual combat."

"What level of cultivation do you have now? I can't even see through it," Ye Hua asked curiously, picking up his teacup.

"Just entered the sixth level."

Upon hearing this, Ye Hua swallowed his tea with difficulty, unable to hide the envy in his eyes. Over the years, despite receiving resources from the Knight Temple, his cultivation level was only at the peak of the fifth rank. He never expected that the child he had watched grow up would have already reached the sixth rank.

Su Zhe could not hide the emotions in Ye Hua's eyes. This time, Su Zhe came to the Holy City not only to participate in the selection competition, but also to establish a squire knight contract for Ye Hua.

However, it wasn't with Su Zhe, but with Long Haochen.

Long Haochen has a stronger talent, but he hadn't awakened his inner spiritual power until now, which is why Su Zhe has been delayed until now.

After completing the registration procedures, Su Zhe received his race number, Knight One.

After glancing at the list, Su Zhe noticed that the participants in this year's competition were generally not very strong, with only three at the fifth rank, and their professions were knight, mage, and summoner.

Compared to the next selection competition for Long Haochen and his team, this one was only average.

Han Qian, a member of the upper echelons of the Alliance government, held Su Zhe's information with great delight.

"Excellent, excellent! An eighteen-year-old sixth-tier Radiant Knight is even more talented than Long Xingyu. He has the potential to achieve divine seal before the age of forty."

Han Yu, who was still young at the time, walked into the room and heard his grandfather's joyful voice.

"Grandpa, what happened? Why are you so happy? Did some powerful knight kill a demon god?" Han Yu asked curiously.

Han Qian raised his head. Having just reviewed Su Zhe's information, he had some reservations about his proud grandson.

"Ask, ask, all you do is ask! How's your cultivation level? If the next Demon Hunter Team can't break through to the fifth rank, you'll be sorry!"

Hearing his grandfather's scolding, Han Yu shrank back.

"I know, I know."

Watching his grandson slink away, Han Qian sighed helplessly. With Han Yu's talent, he had a chance to gain the recognition of a Divine Throne in the future, but unfortunately, his temperament was not good and he still needed to be polished.

Han Qian picked up Su Zhe's file again and stroked his chin.

"With Su Zhe's talent, who in this year's class can be his teammate..."

The next day...

In the Holy Alliance Grand Trial Grounds, Knight Division, Su Zhe sat in the first row, first seat of the competition area.

There was no one else around. The first row was reserved for fifth-tier knights, and because of the fifth-tier bye system, the other fifth-tier knight hadn't come. He watched the duel on the field with great interest. Those who dared to participate in the selection were at least fourth-tier professionals, and the battles were quite exciting.

Above the Great Trial Grounds, Han Qian and Yang Haohan were sitting.

"Ten years have passed. How far has Su Zhe's strength progressed?" Yang Haohan asked Han Qian.

"Having just entered the sixth rank, my current spiritual power is 4080," Han Qian replied.

"Just entered the sixth rank?"

Looking at Yang Haohan's furrowed brows, Han Qian was completely bewildered. "No, you're not satisfied with this?"

Noticing Han Qian's strange look, Yang Haohan explained helplessly.

"Although it is indeed fast, it is also within my expectations. The last senior with an innate spiritual power of over eighty became a Divine Seal Knight at the age of thirty-six. Su Zhe's innate spiritual power is eighty-five points, which is higher than that senior's, but their cultivation levels at the same time are almost the same..."

Han Qian suddenly realized and quickly said, "It's not Su Zhe's fault. Long Xingyu felt that having cultivation without actual combat experience was not good, so after Su Zhe broke through to the fourth level, he often took him to Yulong Pass to train with the demons."

"As far as I know, that senior was under the protection of the Holy Temple at the time and had hardly ever seen any demons before reaching the sixth rank," Han Qian said helplessly.

In the history of the Knights Temple, excluding Su Zhe, there were only three people with innate spiritual power exceeding eighty. However, the first two died young, which is the most important reason why that senior had hardly ever seen demons before reaching the sixth rank.

"That's true, I forgot about that." Yang Haohan understood and stopped worrying about it. After all, at eighteen years old, his sixth-level cultivation was unparalleled in the entire alliance.

Moreover, compared to a dullard who only knows how to cultivate, Yang Haohan also feels that frequent practical combat is better.

"When is Su Zhe's match?" Yang Haohan asked.

"the day after tomorrow."

“I’ll come back the day after tomorrow. Xingyu has made some progress recently, so I’m feeling a bit less pressure,” Yang Haohan said.

Hearing this, Han Qian looked up in surprise, and only after watching Yang Haohan disappear from the spot did she realize what had happened.

"Wasn't Xingyu originally a level 3 ninth-tier knight? He's made a breakthrough... Doesn't that mean he's now a level 4 ninth-tier Divine Seal Knight? With the Divine Seal Throne, he can fight against level 6 ninth-tier knights!" Han Qian gasped. This was a great thing for the Holy Alliance.

Two days passed quickly, and Yang Haohan arrived at the top of the Cavaliers' division on time, together with Han Qian, to watch Su Zhe's game.

"Knight Eleven".

The referee glanced at the number plate in his hand, then looked with pity at the Knight No. 11 who had been drawn.

"Knight One".

As the referee's voice rang out, Knight 11 froze in his excited state, staring at the referee in disbelief.

Everyone present realized that there were only two Tier 5 participants from the Knights Temple this time, number one and number two.

Knight No. 2 Wang Yongfeng couldn't help but glance at Su Zhe beside him. They had exchanged ideas in the past two days, and he could naturally sense the unfathomable depth of the spiritual power within Su Zhe's body.

Wang Yongfeng silently prayed for Knight Eleven for a second. Even he probably wouldn't be a match for Su Zhe, let alone a fourth-tier Knight Eleven.

On the higher stands, Yang Haohan sat up straight. "How long do you think it will take Su Zhe to finish the fight?"

"Thirty seconds," Han Qian said calmly.

Yang Haohan raised an eyebrow. "So fast?"

"If he's slow, Su Zhe's cultivation and combat experience completely overwhelm his opponent. I said thirty seconds only because Su Zhe was holding back. If he went all out, it would probably only take about five seconds."
