Chapter 160 Becoming a Bronze Intermediate Knight
"Haha, are you excited? Let me tell you, this weapon can only play the role just now in your hands, but it will be even more powerful in my hands!"
What followed was the highlight that Gervis had prepared for them. He simply discarded the ordinary longsword, held the mithril longsword in his right hand, and then picked up the heavy iron armor on the ground.
Drink~
After Gervis picked up the armor, he activated his fighting spirit and threw the armor high up. At the moment the armor fell from the sky, Gervis shouted loudly, holding the sword in both hands, and swung the sword in an instant. The sword was as fast as lightning, and before everyone could see clearly, Gervis's sword had been retracted, and the armor had fallen to the ground!
Bang! Bang!
The iron armor hit the ground with two dull sounds, and the armor that was originally only slightly damaged was actually broken into two!
"mighty!"
Looking at the armor that was split in two on the ground, both the royal guards and the ordinary guards on the city wall were stunned. Finally, Ike was the first to react, and shouted the word "mighty" with trembling lips.
"Mighty! Mighty! Mighty..."
With Ik taking the lead, the royal guards and ordinary guards on the city wall who had come to their senses also shouted excitedly.
Gervis smiled and waited for the crowd to cheer for a while, then raised his hand to stop their cheering.
"Now start the assembly!"
Looking at the guards whose faces were flushed with excitement, Gervis gave the order!
After the order to equip was given, the three servants who had been waiting on the side immediately picked up the equipment and came to Gervis' side.
"Ike!"
"arrive!"
When he heard Gervis calling his name, Ik instantly ran out from the right side of the guards, came to Gervis, stood at attention, saluted Gervis, and then waited motionlessly for Gervis to bestow armor.
“This is your equipment!”
"Thank you, sir. I swear to be loyal to you until death!"
Gervis handed the whole set of equipment to Ik, who immediately lowered his head and stretched out his hands to take the whole set of equipment from Gervis's hands, including a round shield, a long sword, chain mail, leather armor and a helmet!
"Alec!"
"arrive!"
"Thank you, sir. I swear to be loyal to you until death!"
“…”
Gervis called out the names of the guards one by one and personally handed the mithril equipment to them.
"Now, everyone, go back and put on your equipment!"
"Ike, now that the equipment has been installed, you can start training according to my method later!"
"Yes, sir!"
The equipment of the Royal Guard has been fully equipped, and the next training subjects can be carried out. The most important of these are crossing obstacles and running with loads. Gervis has ordered people to create an obstacle course like the one in the army in his previous life on the open space outside the castle. Trenches, low walls, single-plank bridges, high walls, etc., as long as they exist in memory, have been imitated by Gervis. These projects can greatly improve the physical fitness of the guards.
Only after the guards' bodies were strengthened, would Gervis consider training in infantry phalanxes or squad attack formations. As for the killing martial arts, Gervis handed them over directly to Ik. Ik's skills in this area were more suitable for them than Gervis's. The main reason was that the moves were too difficult and the guards and bodyguards were still ordinary people. Without the physique of a titled knight, they could not perform them at all.
…
After the guards were disbanded, Gervis entered the training space again. During this time, he was practicing the "Flame Fighting Qi Art" he got from Bernard. After practicing for a while, Gervis fell in love with this high-level training method.
Not only was the speed of practice faster, but during the practice, Gervis could feel as if his body was wrapped in a warm current, which was indescribably comfortable.
Gervis didn't know that if his body hadn't been transformed by the golden kiwi fruit, his experience would have been even more perfect, and the effect of the fiery energy nourishing his body would have been even more obvious.
“Almost there!”
Inside the training space, Gervis sat cross-legged on the lawn. Not far from Gervis, a snow-white unicorn was also training. However, Gervis had gotten used to it, and now all his energy was focused on his body.
Because he could feel that his Qi Sea had reached a limit. With his continuous practice during this period, more and more spiritual energy flowed into his Qi Sea and had filled up the entire Qi Sea. This meant that Gervis was about to break through. As long as he broke through and became a mid-level bronze knight, his Qi Sea would expand again and could accommodate more spiritual energy.
One circle, two circles, three circles.
Gervis tirelessly guided the spiritual energy in his body through various meridians, and then gathered it back at the gate of the sea of qi. He then used a squeezing method to stuff the already extremely pure spiritual energy into the sea of qi bit by bit.
At this time, the physical advantage of Gervis, which had been strengthened by the kiwi fruit, was reflected. A large amount of spiritual energy accumulated outside the entrance of the Qi Sea Gate, which greatly expanded this section of his Qi channels.
If it were an ordinary titled knight, he would need to slowly allow his qi channels to adapt, and would not dare to guide so much spiritual energy to gather here at one time. However, such a small amount of spiritual energy was not enough to cause any damage to Gervis's qi channels, so Gervis could lavishly pile up all the spiritual energy at the entrance of the qi sea gate, and then use brute force to squeeze the spiritual energy into the qi sea.
The bottleneck of cultivation for the titled knights in this world comes from this. Once you reach the realm of breakthrough, you need to slowly work on it, constantly strengthening your body and qi channels, and finally make a breakthrough in one go.
“Almost there, almost there!”
Although Gervis's meridians would not be damaged by the accumulation of spiritual energy, the huge amount of spiritual energy accumulated together still made Gervis feel very uncomfortable with the swollen meridians, and his forehead was covered with sweat.
Although compared to the first time he opened up his Qi Sea, this breakthrough only made Gervis feel a little uncomfortable, but it was not as painful as the first time.
Gervis gritted his teeth and continued to squeeze the spiritual energy, just like continuing to inflate an already filled balloon.
As Gervis continued to squeeze, the spiritual energy in the Qi sea became denser and denser. When the density finally reached the upper limit, the Qi sea was squeezed and expanded without being noticeable.
"Break it for me!"
Seeing that the spiritual energy could no longer be compressed, Gervis felt that the time had finally come. He concentrated all his mental strength, controlled all the spiritual energy outside the Qi Sea Gate, and rushed fiercely into the Qi Sea.
Boom!
The spiritual energy controlled by Gervis's mind was like a group of galloping horses, slamming heavily into the already saturated spiritual energy in his qi sea. Gervis only felt a sharp pain in his qi sea, and then his body suddenly felt lighter.
All the spiritual energy rushed into the Qi sea at once, and the Qi sea was squeezed and expanded to a limited extent by the spiritual energy. This was destruction followed by creation.
“Haha, finally a breakthrough!”
When Gervis came to his senses, he laughed excitedly and clenched his fists. Gervis felt the power coming from his body because of the breakthrough in realm.
"Well! I have to go take a shower quickly!" After feeling the pleasure of becoming a mid-level bronze knight, Gervis found that he was already covered in sweat, and mixed with a lot of impurities discharged from the body. Although it was only a little bit, it was already very good.
Every time a titled knight breaks through, not only can his qi sea accommodate more spiritual energy, but his body will also be strengthened. These impurities on Gervis' body are the manifestation of Gervis's strengthened body. The higher the level of breakthrough, the stronger the strengthening effect will be.
