The technique Fang Xingjian had decided on was the Ninety Thousand Godly Demon Flash.
The Ninety Thousand Godly Demon Flash used speed, footwork, light, and shadows to create errors in one’s sight and hearing. With each sword attack, many illusions would be created. It was said that ultimately tens of thousands of illusions could be created.
Then when matched with the powers from the ether particles, these illusions wou)d all???& be given physical forms. What was even more amazing was that the cultivator would be able to switch positions with any of the illusions as he wished.
Of course, the illusions could not be apart from the cultivator beyond a thousand meters.
The reason Fang Xingjian had decided on this Killing technique was firstly because it was a sword technique. Fang Xingjian’s sword arts talent was the best in the world, so he would naturally want to choose a sword art Killing technique. This would allow him to cultivate fast and synthesize with many other techniques limitlessly and increase the prowess of his Killing techniques.
The second reason was because this Ninety Thousand Godly Demon Flash had both attacks and defences. Furthermore, it was also related to both light and speed. So, it was a good match for his Luminous Heaven Soaring Slash.
In fact, Fang Xingjian had also taken a liking to the Killing technique, Blood Rampage. It allowed one to explode their vital energy and blood, and change his form to enter a rampage mode, increasing his five attributes greatly.
It was a pity that this was a ‘transformation’ Killing technique because such killing techniques, which required one to change their form, would have a high requirement for endurance and flexibility attributes. Fang Xingjian had yet to reach the requirements in these areas.
As a Knight who specialized in speed, he was more suitable for Killing techniques which increased damage prowess through footwork and speed.
Therefore, Fang Xingjian instructed the maid, “I’ll choose the Ninety Thousand Godly Demon Flash. What should I do next?”
The maid bowed and said, “In a while, a teacher who cultivates the Ninety Thousand Godly Demon Flash will be coming here to instruct you. Please wait here for a short moment.”
Fang Xingjian nodded, sat cross-legged in the courtyard and rested. He knew that although the Regional Academy was a place to nurture Conferred Knights, so it was impossible for all of the teachers to be Conferred Knights. Furthermore, it was even more impossible for a Conferred Knight teacher to be constantly in the academy at all times.
There were many Conferred Knights in the academy who were teachers officially, but less than half of them were truly involved in teaching. Each of them had their own businesses, clans, influences, and thus, most of them would only need to come over for a short while when there were lessons. For the most part, they would not be in the academy.
Of course, there were also some Conferred Knights who were obsessed with martial arts and stayed in the academy all the time. While they pursued their paths in martial arts, they also had the roles of teachers. These were the people who always stayed in the academy.
After waiting for about two hours, an old man with messy hair and unkempt appearance emerged. It was hard to tell if he was a Knight. After coming in, he threw a glance toward Fang Xingjian and said, “You’re an examinee for this year’s selection? You seem composed.”
Fang Xingjian’s brows twitched. It was clear with one look that this old man was a Knight who was engrossed in the pursuit of martial arts. So, it was not strange that he did not recognize Fang Xingjian’s identity. There were just too many Knights who were deeply engrossed in the pursuit of martial arts and did not concern themselves with the outside world.
Even twenty-four hours were not enough for them to study martial arts and the ether particles. Being engrossed in cultivation, how could they possibly still concern themselves with things which were happening in the outside world. To the top notch Conferred Knights, things like the Regional Selection were even less of a concern to them.
This was because… for the top Conferred Knights, it would usually be years, or even decades, before the other Conferred Knights in their batch would be able to provide any help to them.
That old man threw a glance at Fang Xingjian, did not give any greetings and then said impatiently, “I’ve many things to attend to and will leave after teaching you once. If you have any problems, just practice it by yourself.”
