I can see experience bars after being transported to another world.

Night was falling.

The main hall was unusually empty.

During the day, the beams of light from the stained-glass windows above the sky had long since dimmed.

Inside the palace, only a few lamps remained, most of which were focused on one or two small lamps in front of the altar.

The firelight was small and couldn't illuminate very far.

In many other places, darkness reigns.

After the four statues went out, they stood quietly on either side.

The flames that burned during the day have now vanished without a trace.

The nearly ten-meter-tall stone statue stood in the darkness, resembling four small mountains.

During the day, when there are people around, it might go unnoticed.

Now that it's empty, the sheer size of this palace becomes apparent.

Even the slightest sound can travel far in the darkness.

Under the lamp on the desk, the old man who wrote during the day is still sitting there.

The light was raised slightly, illuminating his full white beard and the scattered patterns on his clothes.

On the table in front of me lay the booklet from earlier that day.

Footsteps entered from the entrance of the palace; there were three of them.

The Blue Knight led the way.

The Knight with the Lantern and the Knight of Silence followed behind her.

The Silent Knight, clad in gray and black armor, looked rather clumsy, yet he moved without making a sound.

The four people gathered inside the hall, pulled out chairs, and sat down at the same time.

The light cast long shadows of the four people on the ground.

The Blue Knight looked at the Grand Astrologer Knight and asked, "Grand Astrologer, are any of the people you brought here the ones that match your prophecy?"

The Grand Knight of Astronomy nodded.

"Yes, they exist. This time, there are two extremely special ones."

The Blue Knight was taken aback. She hadn't expected there to be two of them.

In previous years, being able to get involved with even one special person was already considered quite good.

After all, the Knight Academy needs some fresh blood, and this year, there are two of them.

"Grand Knight Commander, which two are they?" The Lantern Knight asked with interest. "I've seen all of these dozen or so people, and they don't seem to have anything special about them."

The astrologist didn't answer, but instead pushed his notebook over the table.

The Blue Knight took it. The Lantern Knight also joined in.

The Silent Knight also silently took a step closer, standing beside the Lantern Knight. The three of them huddled together to watch.

The booklet is quite old; the edges are worn and frayed.

The Blue Knight rested his thumb on the edge of the book, turning the pages one by one.

The first few pages are all the names of other people from the daytime.

Lighting up one or two lights lasts for a little over a minute.

She glanced at it, but didn't linger for long.

Eli lit four statues, which lasted for more than two minutes.

The Blue Knight was taken aback.

"Eli? Four statues? How is that possible? So far, besides those four lords, the four founders, no one else has ever set fire to four statues. Could this be the 'Star-Supporting Person' you mentioned, Grand Knight of Astronomy?"

The astrologist nodded, then shook his head.

"I'm not sure. Because you see, you all look ahead."

The Blue Knight turned the pages of the book to the back.

The words above are just ordinary records.

Until Lu Yuan's name appeared before them.

Lu Yuan set fire to three statues, which Kang Jian rejected.

The ignition time was seven minutes, but it was forcibly interrupted by the inscription, so the ignition time is unknown.

The Blue Knight looked at the record in front of him and couldn't help but twitch at the corner of his eye.

Lu Yuan actually lit up three statues.

Moreover, one of them actually rejected him.

What exactly did he go through? What is it about him that makes him who he is?

Moreover, it was a rejection from Kang Jian, meaning that his body had completely fallen into the category of inhuman.

That shouldn't be the case; I can't even beat myself.

When I was in contact with him, I could clearly feel that Lu Yuan's physical fitness was at most twice that of an average person.

I'm the kind of person who gets out of breath even after long runs, and gets injured easily.

With a physique like that, how do you see him as worthy of such a record?

The Blue Knight was somewhat confused.

The Blue Knights came this time specifically to train Lu Yuan's body.

Otherwise, even with timekeeping, it would be as weak as a chick, posing almost no threat to me.

Unless, he uses the ocean of knowledge.

Interesting, interesting, really interesting.

The Knight with the Lantern, unusually, touched his chin and narrowed his eyes.

"This year's competition is really interesting. I remember last year, someone also lit up three statues, right?"

The Grand Knight of Astronomy had a deep gaze, and faint starlight flickered in his eyes.

"According to the prophecy, it should be this year, and I'm leaning towards Eli. To prevent any unforeseen circumstances, I will personally take Eli as my student and mentor him. As for Lu Yuan..."

The Grand Knight of Astronomy pondered for a moment, then said nothing more.

The Knight with the Lantern waited a while, and seeing that the Grand Knight of Astronomy did not intend to speak, he did not press the matter.

The Silent Knight lifted his eyes from the booklet, glanced at the Grand Knight Commander of the Astronomy, and then looked down again.

The hall was quiet for a few moments, with the lights flickering continuously.

The Blue Knight looked at the astrology, a strange feeling rising in his heart.

The reason for this recruitment is that the Grand Knight of Astronomy saw some strange images in his astrolabe.

To this end, the astrology department mobilized a large number of people and finally determined that this year would be the best time.

The person who can light up all four statues this year will be the one we are truly looking for.

Because so far, no one in the academy has ever lit up all four statues as a fifth person.

Not a single one. This may be related to the subsequent knightly legacy, or rather, to the deepest secrets of the Knight Academy.

Therefore, the astrology department specifically reserved two spots to prevent any unforeseen circumstances.

Eli, that's obviously the one.

But Lu Yuan was also very puzzled. All four statues were lit, but Kang Jian's was extinguished due to rejection.

Blue Knight, on the other hand, didn't want Lu Yuan to get involved.

Although she didn't know what the astrology was seeing, the things the Grand Knight Commander of the Astrology always saw were never good.

The Silent Knight stood to one side.

Those eyes, hidden beneath the armor, flickered slightly, revealing a hint of interest.

Clearly, he was very interested in both Eli and Lu Yuan.

The Blue Knight slammed the book shut and handed it back to the Grand Knight Commander of the Astronomical Society.

"Okay, so what about the later matches? Will they be randomly assigned, or...?"

The Grand Knight of Astronomy thought for a moment.

"Let Eli fight Lu Yuan. The rest is up to you."

The Blue Knight agreed and turned to leave. Her footsteps echoed in the empty hall for a moment before she stepped out of the hall and disappeared into the snowy night.

The Lantern Knight and the Silent Knight watched the Blue Knight's retreating figure.

"This guy is still the same." Lantern couldn't help but complain.
