At first, both the people in the training grounds and those in the stands were all astonished by the earth-shattering impact caused by Fang Xingjian’s attack. Each of them were considering how, had they been on the receiving end of that move, they probably would have died.

Following that, hearing the examiners’ comments for Fang Xingjian, it was as if waves of explosions were continuously shaking them up.

Perfect! Would definitely become Divine level! Future grandmaster of sword arts! Looking forward to his performance in the National Selection!

They all sounded exaggerated, but only such praises without any hints of smooth talking could match up to Fang Xingjian’s performance. Because such was the damaging prowess Fang Xingjian had instantaneously unleashed with more than a thousand swords.

Lilia waved her fist excitedly and said, “Teacher is really too cool!”

Kirst’s City Lord sighed. Looking at the gleaming green eyes of the young aristocratic ladies around, he thought, ‘Lili, with this, you’ll have even more competitors now.’ However, when he looked at Fang Xingjian, his gaze seemed to turn more and more into that of a mother-in-law who was looking at her future son-in-law [1]. He felt more and more that Fang Xingjian was a good candidate.

Ferdinand exhaled and said, “This is really satisfying! To think that Xingjian still has this hidden up his sleeves. City Lord, if you were to be hit with this, would you be able to handle it?”

Kirst’s Conferred Knight snorted disdainfully, replying, “Of course I can. But its prowess is sufficient to deal with some of the freshly transitioned Conferred Knights.”

On the other end, Anderson was looking at Fang Xingjian in disbelief, shouting out crazily in his heart.

He could accept Hoult surpassing him, since Hoult had received the legacy of a Divine level expert, and since he also had a level 29 Superior Divine Weapon.

However, to think that Fang Xingjian suddenly jumped out and threw him far behind! Anderson, who was used to always being in the first place, felt emotionally unbalanced.

Ever since being old enough to know better, he had never once lost to anyone of his age. After he had transitioned into a Shadow Death God, he had not lost to any Knight. And for the past year he had been able to defeat any first transition opponent with a single move.

All of these had given him reasons to feel proud of himself. He had felt that no Knight would be able to face even a single attack from him. And even if there were any who could, they would already be considered as having earned the right to keep their lives.

However, to think that Fang Xingjian had won him overwhelmingly in terms of both damaging and explosive powers, the two areas he was the most proud of…

To Anderson, someone who had gotten used to the feeling of winning since young, and who was always the one to suppress others, this was too infuriating.

He only felt that everyone’s praises for Fang Xingjian were mocking words targeting him. The four examiners’ praises made him feel even worse.

‘Hmph, just you wait. It’s not as if the one with the strongest damaging prowess is the best.’ Anderson snorted and thought to himself, ‘See how I’ll deal with you during the arena battle.

‘One-on-one fighting is what my Shadow Death God excels in.’

Hoult, on the other hand, showed an unfathomable smile as he looked at Fang Xingjian and thought to himself, ‘To think that I’ve come across such an interesting character this time around.

‘It’s a pity, a pity that he rejected the Holy Orison’s invitation. Otherwise, he would have also had a chance to join our ranks.’

Even Wei Leng, who always looked as if nothing else in the world mattered to him, was looking at the scene before him in astonishment.

Let alone Rota, Hamil, Ralph, Manny and the others.

David clenched his fists tightly. Each comment given by the examiners made him feel horrible. He looked at the two Knights behind him, who were wearing strange expressions, showing signs of faltering, and then said coldly, “I’ll add another one thousand gold for each of you and send all of you safely to the Sand Country in the west. Moreover, I’m not asking the two of you to flout the rules, nor to kill anyone. What are you so scared about?
