Following a command, the messenger quickly passed on the instructions, and teams of knights galloped towards the training ground.
After arriving, they lined up neatly, standing tall and straight, quietly awaiting Martin's arrival. The patrol team outside also returned to the group, and Martin finally raised his feet and led Luo Jia to the training ground.
What came into view was more than 700 knights standing in neat rows on the training ground. The scene was so magnificent that Martin couldn't help but feel a strong sense of pride.
Martin cleared his throat and said loudly, "I've gathered everyone here today so that you can have a fair competition."
"However, the first two hundred knights to win this time will receive a special reward. This reward will be kept secret for now. You will know it naturally when you win."
After saying that, Martin turned to Roga and said, "You lead those who did not participate in the competition to act as referees. You must decide 200 winners within one day." After making the arrangements, Martin turned around and went back to deal with the business.
After a long day of hard work, Martin finally finished dealing with the pile of tasks that had been piling up for the past few days. Looking up, he saw that it was already getting dark, and it was already evening.
Martin thought it would be difficult to select the two hundred winners today. With a hint of curiosity, he decided to go to the training ground to see how the selection process was going.
As soon as I approached the training ground, I heard the sounds of cheering coming from all directions.
Even though it was already evening, the knights' enthusiasm remained undimmed. Roga saw Martin approaching and was about to salute, but Martin quickly waved his hand, signaling no further formalities. Then he asked, "Roga, how's the selection going?"
Luo Jia replied respectfully, "Master, only about eighty people have been selected so far. However, I have arranged for people to place magic lamps around the area and plan to complete the selection tonight. The knights below have also expressed their support."
After hearing this, Martin turned his gaze towards the knights fighting each other and said seriously, "Luojia, please be careful. No one should die."
After receiving the order, Luo Jia stepped aside and continued to work.
Martin observed for a while and confirmed that everything was fine. Then he prepared to go back and rest. He asked the maid who followed him to prepare first.
Back in his room, five maids had been waiting for him for a long time. With their attentive care, Martin lay down on the bed comfortably and soon fell asleep.
The next morning, just as the sunlight was pouring into the room, Martin had already finished washing up.
After enjoying a hearty breakfast, he planned to go to the training ground to see the final results of the selection.
At that moment, Luo Jia arrived to report. Upon seeing Martin, Luo Jia bowed and said directly, "Master, the two hundred winners have been selected. Aside from these victorious knights, I have already arranged for the others to rest."
After hearing this, Martin nodded, thinking that they had been fighting all night and it was indeed time for them to have a good rest.
Afterwards, Martin, accompanied by Roga, strode towards the training ground.
Entering the training grounds, Martin saw that despite visible fatigue on the knights' faces, they remained erect, doing their best to stay alert and maintain a neat formation. Martin was very pleased to see this, secretly praising the strict military discipline and giving Roga an admiring look.
Martin came to the front of the line, his eyes sweeping over each knight. He said loudly, "I promised before that the victor would receive a reward. Now that the result is known, I will not delay any further."
After saying this, Martin silently communicated with the system in his mind and issued an order to promote these two hundred knights.
In an instant, a surge of majestic momentum rose from the training ground, gathering together and spreading in all directions.
Martin hurriedly said to Roga, "Hurry, try to stop the spread of this aura and don't disturb other people." After receiving the order, Roga quickly took action to suppress this aura.
After the knights had finished their promotions, Martin spoke again: "Lorga, after everyone has stabilized their realm, you will take them to the castle storehouse to change into their knight armor."
"If there is not enough equipment in the warehouse, go find the housekeeper Lilith and she will help you get the equipment." After saying that, Martin turned and left the training ground.
After returning to his study, Martin took out his communication crystal and contacted Roland. He wanted to know about the status of the magic items in the space ring.
Not long after, Roland's response came through the communication crystal: "Master, most of the magic props have been sorted. There are only three left whose uses are unknown. I haven't found any information on them yet."
Martin thought for a moment and then said, "Okay, you can send over the things you've sorted out first. As soon as Eric arrives in the next two days, we'll be ready to set off for the battlefield."
After hanging up the phone, Martin leaned back in his chair and thought about the monster army in the Valley of Beasts again.
Those monster cubs were still too weak to be of any use at the moment. He secretly pondered whether he could find an opportunity to visit the Merlin family and try to find a new magic circle, using magic crystals to accelerate the cubs' growth. However, at the moment, he couldn't rely on them to help in this war.
For the next two days, Martin had nothing to do. All the necessary materials and matters had been prepared. He was looking forward to Eric's return and then rushing to the battlefield.
Two days later, one afternoon, Martin, who was resting in the courtyard, saw two figures in the sky, descending in this direction. When he saw who they were, he found that it was Eric with a young woman with a cold temperament.
Martin understood in his heart that this person must be Frost Condensation in human form.
Eric saw Martin and prepared to salute him. Martin waved his hand and said, "Eric, you are a dragon knight now. No need to salute."
But Eric had a determined look on his face, shook his head and said, "Master, everything I have is given by you. I will never forget your kindness and fail to pay my respects to you just because my strength has increased."
After saying this, he bowed respectfully. Martin smiled helplessly and said, "You, I really can't get over you." Then he arranged for the two of them to go down and rest.
Afterwards, he picked up the communication crystal and contacted Luo Jia, saying, "Luo Jia, get ready. We will set off for the battlefield early tomorrow morning."
Luo Jia's reply was quick and straightforward: "Understood, Master. I'll go get everyone packed and make sure we leave on time tomorrow morning."
