Chapter 413: Attaining Divine Level
Translator: Yukidaruma Translations Editor: Yukidaruma TranslationsThrough his Heaven’s Perception, when Hildebrand saw that Fang Xingjian left without showing any reaction, he frowned slightly.
‘Not in the least concerned? Confident? Or is he just a fool?’
Peter followed behind Hildebrand and said, “Lord, do you think that he’ll really be stirring up trouble?”
As if he had complete control over the entire situation, Hildebrand spoke unperturbedly, “It’s hard to say. However, youngsters are impulsive and easily infuriated, especially a genius like him who thinks too highly of himself. It’s normal for there to be some trouble. I’m considered to have done my part as a senior by gifting him with those words earlier.”
Hildebrand then smiled and added, “The reason he’s here is naturally to look for the archbishop. I’ll wait for you at the bar counter outside. Go and check out the situation. If he really does wreak havoc, then don’t blame me for not holding back.”
…
Upon meeting the archbishop and the Knight of the Rising Sun, Fang Xingjian went straight to the point, “I’ve completed it.”
“What?” Gardner, the Knight of the Rising Sun, asked puzzledly, “What have you completed?”
“I’ve completed the appraisals for all of the 1,000 sets of sword techniques.” Fang Xingjian rubbed the middle of his forehead. Right now, numerous sword arts material were still churning around in his mind. After he submitted the documents, he planned to enter seclusion for a few days to process all the information and turn them completely into a part of his sword arts.
Hearing what Fang Xingjian said, the Knight of the Rising Sun’s expression turned grim as he said, “Fang Xingjian, stop spouting rubbish. This joke isn’t funny.”
Peter, who was using his Heaven’s Perception to look through the door’s gap, also smiled coldly when he heard Fang Xingjian’s words. He felt that Fang Xingjian must have turned into a fool.
However, Fang Xingjian continued to look straight at the archbishop and Gardner, saying, “I don’t joke about such things. When I say that I’ve completed it, it means that I’ve completed it. I’ve brought along all the appraisal details together with me today.”
Gardner frowned as he looked at Fang Xingjian as if he were looking at a lunatic.
“That’s a total of 1,000 sword techniques. Even if you learn fast, appraising them and testing through all the statistics… Do you know how much time it would take?” Gardner continued to say, “Fang Xingjian, I know you learn fast and your speed is fast. But this speed and the speed of research are two different things altogether.
“No matter how fast you are, is it possible for you to be as fast when you appraise and write? Are you still able to be as fast when you test out the temperatures, explosive effect, prowess of light rays, and the transmission of energy?
“You can be the be the fastest when you run, but how are you able to be just as fast during the appraisal process and when you move your fingers to undergo a small range of movements?”
Gardner pointed out the crux of the problem. Even if Knights who excelled in high-speed could move fast when they dashed and when they performed Killing techniques, it did not mean that they could also do various things just as fast, including writing, eating, drinking, and reading. This was impossible.
Without Fang Xingjian’s talent, Boundaries Negation to negate other conditions to move at the fastest speed, and the Prodigious Demolition Sword Physique to wipe out the air, of course, it would be impossible. Therefore, Fang Xingjian nodded.
Gardner smiled and said, “Look at you boast.”
Just then, the archbishop stopped Gardner from continuing and looked at Fang Xingjian. The archbishop said, “You said that you’ve brought the appraisal documents. Where are they?”
“They’re outside.” Fang Xingjian tilted his head to the side and said, “But if I give all 1,000 sets to you at one go, you’re able to pay me the 15 million gold at once as well, right?”
“If you deliver the goods, of course, we’ll give you the money.” The archbishop stood up and said, “Then let’s go take a look.”
Gardner frowned as he looked at Fang Xingjian suspiciously. ‘Could it be that he had really completed them? But… how on earth did he do that?’
Hildebrand was seated at the bar counter, drinking by himself. In merely over ten minutes, he had already rejected the invitation of three beauties.
As the eldest son of the first wife in one of the Empire’s wealthy and influential clans, Hildebrand had lived a life different from others ever since birth.
