Walls performed several movements with difficulty, and each movement made him extremely painful, but he endured it. Now he was in urgent need of improving his strength, and he eagerly hoped that he could quickly restore the glory of his family.

This training was also conducted in the wild, but no robbers appeared, and no pedestrians came. Only a few small animals in the wild looked curiously at the young man who was sweating and had a painful expression.

Lying on the ground, Walls stared blankly at the blue sky. Occasionally, a few birds flew by. These birds should have come from the south.

Walls suddenly stood up and saw a group of people walking towards him in the distance.

There were ten people in this group. Each of them wore armor and rode horses of different colors. They had swords of varying sizes on their waists or backs. They might be a group of mercenaries.

It seems that the direction they are heading is Wocheze, but apart from this place, is there any other place they can go?

This time it’s not robbery!

This is near Wocheze, and the lord here will not allow bandits to run rampant here.

As the group slowly approached, Walls could see their attire more clearly, and the man in the lead seemed to be the leader of the team.

He had a long sword on his waist, a two-handed sword on his back, a helmet on his head, and a piece of fine hard leather armor on his body. This armor can provide effective defense. The knights of Swadia all wear this kind of protective gear.

Thinking of this, Walls seemed to be suddenly awakened.

He is a knight of Swadia!

"Hello, soldier over there." A young man's voice came.

At this time, Wals was wearing Jeffrey's long chain mail. This was the requirement of Wo's Golden Finger. He said that this was done to make Wals get used to wearing armor when fighting. Indeed, because of his family's decline, Wals had not worn armor for several days.

It was normal for Walls to be mistaken for a warrior wearing armor at this time.

"Hello, sir," Walls replied, noting that the person speaking to him was the man at the head, who seemed to be the captain of the team.

The young man drove his horse to Wals, and his servants followed one by one.

"I'm curious, what are you doing here?" said the young man, taking off his helmet to reveal his face.

"Can't you introduce yourself before asking someone a question?" Walls asked.

"Excuse me, I am a knight from Swadia, my name is Isa, I am traveling around, and Woche is where I am going." Isa began to look at the man in front of him who was about the same age as him.

The armor he was wearing was of extraordinary value, so Isa believed that he was not an ordinary person, and perhaps he could get some useful information during the communication process with him.

"Walsh, I'm a businessman." Walsh briefly introduced himself.

"Merchant?" Isa looked suspicious. What was a merchant doing alone in the wild?

Isa is a knight of Swadia. He went to the Nordic Kingdom on a mission. He wanted to gather some intelligence from within the Nordic Kingdom.

There is news that the Kingdom of Vaegir and the Kingdom of Nord are preparing to jointly attack the Kingdom of Swadia, and now the Kingdom of Swadia is at war with the Kingdom of Rhodok to its south.

Once the two countries invade Swadia, then with the combined efforts of the three countries, I believe the Kingdom of Swadia will soon be destroyed.

It is precisely because of the fear of such a thing happening that Isa and his group appeared.

Yes, it was a group of people who disguised themselves as merchants, travelers, or mercenaries to sneak into the Nord Kingdom and the Vaegir Kingdom to gather intelligence. As for how to collect intelligence, there were many methods.

Bribing some officials is a common method, but it requires a lot of money. There are also people like Isa who communicate with the people in the Kingdom of Nord in an open and aboveboard manner, at least without spending a lot of dinars.

"Yes, I am a businessman, but at the same time, I am also a warrior." Walsh said frankly, which also dispelled Isa's doubts.

"A warrior? So you also want to participate in the competition here?" Isa showed a look of being ready to fight.

"Competition tournament?" Walls didn't know about this.

"Don't you know?" Isa began to explain. "Every town on the continent holds a competition, and the period of each competition is similar. In the past few days, Woche is preparing to hold a smaller competition."

Isa began to kindly explain the competition, in fact, he just wanted to dispel the suspicion of the people here, and let people only know that he came to Woche Ze just to participate in the competition, but in fact, he came to gather information.

He had to make a perfect disguise.

Wals knew about this competition. In order to ensure that the people in their territories have strong bodies and can participate in wars in time, the lords liked to hold this competition.

In order to win competitions, get bonuses and honors, there are always people who keep exercising. This is a good opportunity to stand out. If you win the competition, you may get a good position in the military.

This way, compared to those who rely on accumulating military merits to get promoted, it takes a lot less time.

Of course, sometimes when the lords get together for a banquet, they will hold some competitions for entertainment. This is also the time for some people to express their love for a certain lady.

At this time, Wo Zhijin Finger said: "This is a good opportunity. It can help you earn some money and fame."

Wozhi Goldfinger thought the same as Walls. This is a great opportunity.

"I'll attend." Walls looked at Isa, noting the changes in his facial expression.

Isa showed a delighted expression. "I'm looking forward to seeing you on the field." Hearing Walls say this, it means that he has regarded himself as a warrior who came to Wocheze to participate in the competition, not a spy.

"Of course, I think so too," Walls said again.

Isa smiled, put on his helmet, turned around and left. His followers followed Isa's footsteps without saying a word.

"How strong is he?" Wals asked Wozhi's Golden Finger.

"If you train hard these few days, I believe you can defeat him. He is just a young knight who has just debuted." Wozhi's Golden Finger replied.

Walls agreed with Wo's Golden Finger in his heart. What he needed most now was to improve his strength as quickly as possible.

"Not only these, there are also some things you need to learn." Wo Zhi's Golden Finger continued.

"I understand, but you don't need these things urgently now, do you?"

"It's best to start practicing this now. It will be very important in the future. You should spend some time learning to see through other people's minds. This is very important during negotiations.

If you understand these, you will be able to find out what is wrong with Isa just now."

"What's wrong?"

"This guy should be a spy, sent by the Kingdom of Swadia to spy on the Kingdom of Nord," Wozhijinfinger replied. "But now, don't worry about it, just shape yourself first."

Wals was a little shocked when he heard the news. He didn't realize that Isa was a spy. But after hearing what Wozhi's golden finger said, he was relieved. Now is not the time to participate in the war.

After understanding my own situation, I secretly encouraged myself in my heart.

We must quickly improve our strength.

Walls looked at the sun in the sky. It was now afternoon. After a rest, Walls hurriedly ate the bread he carried with him, drank the water in the water bag, and then started his training again.

It was not until dusk that the exhausted Walsh began to prepare to return to Wocheze.

Just after Wals left, two knights appeared on horseback in the field as night fell.

"Joels, we're almost there." An older-looking knight said to the young knight beside him.

"I see, sir," Joles replied.

The older knight's name was Byron, and the young-looking knight next to him was Joels. The two of them were knights who traveled together, they were from Vaegir, and unlike Isa, these two were truly traveling.

"There will be a competition here soon, why don't you go and participate?" said Byron.

"Of course, of course I will participate and beat all those opponents until they kneel down and beg for mercy." Joels has great self-confidence. All this confidence comes from the knight beside him. He is his mentor and it was he who taught him superb swordsmanship.

"Will you participate?" Joels asked. If Byron participated, Joels believed that he would not get first place.

"No, I won't participate. I'll leave the opportunity to you young people."

Byron then warned, "You have only participated in a few competitions, and they were all small-scale competitions. You have not met a strong opponent. Don't take it lightly. Maybe this time you will meet someone with superb skills."

"Really? I want to see whose swordsmanship is better, his or mine." Joels remained arrogant.

Night was about to fall, and they arrived at the city gate of Wocheze at this time.

After returning to his residence, Walls told everyone about the competition.

"I know this. I heard about it on the street a long time ago. Registration will end tomorrow, and the competition will officially start the day after tomorrow." Owens was the first to speak.

"I already know about it. I heard it on the street and I was planning to attend it," Aileyen continued.

"Captain, are you going to participate in this competition?" Jenks reacted.

"Yes, of course I'm going." Walls said his thoughts directly.

"In that case, then I'll go too. I'll help you." Owens said enthusiastically.

Soon, Aileyen, Owens, Jenks, and several other recruits expressed their willingness to participate in the competition.

After a night's sleep, Walls and his group began to sign up as soon as the arena's door opened.

In fact, the prize money for this competition is only 200 dinars, but there is also a gambling game, which is to bet on who will win. The amount of money bet ranges from 100 dinars to 5 dinars. In this way, you can earn thousands of dinars by gambling.

This is the real way to make money.

Without saying much, Walls quickly found a place to bet and immediately placed a bet on himself, betting on himself to win. This was the rule. Players could only bet on themselves, so as to avoid deliberately losing on the field to gain benefits.

This time, Wals invested all his money, and now he has no extra money to buy salt. If Wals wins the game.

Then you can get several thousand dinars, but if Wals loses, it means Wals will return to its previous state.

Time passed quickly, and Walls ran out of the city to start his training. The day passed like this, and after a night's sleep, it was time for the game to begin.

The competition in the competition conference is divided into groups, with an average number of people in each group. As for who is in which team, it is random. For example, Walls is now assigned to the red team.

Although Aileyen was in the same group as Walls, Owens was not so lucky. He was assigned to the yellow team, which meant he was Walls' opponent, while Jenks was assigned to the blue team.

In order to ensure fairness in the competition, everyone wears competitive armor made of the same material, but with different colors. This is done to distinguish teammates from enemies. Anyone with the same color as you is an enemy.

The weapons are issued by the owner of the arena and are made of wood, which ensures that the contestants will not die. Of course, accidents always happen.

The people of Wocheze are all Nords, and the Nords are good at fighting on foot, which means that no one rides a horse.

The weapons used were either swords or axes, and each person was equipped with a simple wooden shield. This wooden shield did not provide much defense, and even the wooden weapons could chop it down.

The rules of the competition are very simple. Those who fall to the ground and cannot stand up will be eliminated. As long as there is one person standing at the end in a team, everyone in this team will advance, and then be divided into another team and continue the competition.

When only one person is left at the end, he or she will be the champion of the game.

Walls looked at his teammates. In addition to Aileyon, there was another person who looked like a master.

"How strong is this person?" Wals said to Wozhi's Golden Finger.

"Asking the system about everything, isn't that too dependent? I'm not like that." Finally, the baron couldn't help but complain in his heart.
