Chapter 95: Actually, I am very ugly (I)

Ye Hua glanced at Long Hao Chen, and said with a snort, “Stinky kid, so this was your background.”

Long Hao Chen lowered his head, “Teacher, I…”

Ye Hua waved his hands and said, “No need to tell me. In fact, when that fatty Nalan let me teach you, I already knew that you had a peculiar background, otherwise, how could you have attained this level of cultivation at such a young age? Is this background your father?”

Long Hao Chen nodded.

Ye Hua patted his shoulder, “No need to overthink this, I don’t blame you. Besides, your luck is indeed quite bad, to meet an opponent of the fifth step in this match. Although you won, your secret has been exposed.”

Long Hao Chen gave Ye Hua a concerned look. His mind in disorder, he approached Ye Hua’s ear and told him something in a very low voice.

Ye Hua’s eyes were instantly wide open, and he looked at Long Hao Chen, astonished.

Long Hao Chen nodded at his direction.

Ye Hua’s ice-cold face revealed a smile even uglier than a crying expression, before giving him a thumbs up.

“Teacher, what is a retainer knight?” Long Hao Chen asked, full of curiosity.

Ye Hua answered, “What you gained this time was quite convenient. A retainer knight is like the retainer warriors of a mage. The sole difference, is that one’s retainer knight can be considered as his servant, rather than a regular partner of his. The fact he made an oath implies that if you are to meet a dangerous situation, he will have no other choice than to risk his life by your side. It’s like a human shield. According to the rules and regulations of the Demon Hunt Squads, this kind of existences called retenues are normally not allowed, but knight retenues are the exception. If a knight is a Retribution Knight, then he is permitted to have a training Guardian Knight as his retinue. It is because in regard to Demon Hunt Squads, Guardian Knights are extremely useful.”

“Only, there is almost no knight that is willing to become someone’s retinue. Consequently, you can be said to have picked up a treasure. And this retinue is in addition a knight of the fifth step! When you will enter a Demon Hunt Squad in the future, in terms of sustainability, he will be extremely useful. Furthermore, for having reached the fifth step before his 25 years-old, his background cannot be so simple.”

Long Hao Chen scratched his head, and said, “But, his cultivation level is higher than mine, he may not necessarily accept this.”

Ye Hua showed a mysterious smile, “You are looking down on the oath of a retainer knight. No matter how proud he is, under this oath, you will be his everything, his master. Even if deep inside, he doesn’t accept it, all his thoughts will have to be directed to your sake.”

“Teacher, I’ll be returning first, I have already fully recovered and I also have to rest for tomorrow’s match.” Long Hao Chen hadn’t forgotten the promise he made to Cai’er, and now that his match had ended, he felt an urge to fulfill it as soon as possible.

Ye Hua nodded, and gave his agreement, “Go. However, don’t be over-hasty, there will be no need for you to participate in tomorrow’s match.”

“Huh?” Long Hao Chen stared at him, completely astonished.

The nearby Li Xin was smiling, “Foolish brother, did you forget about the vacant place? If no one else other than you can beat a knight of the fifth step today, how could it run out of your palm?”

Long Hao Chen suddenly realized that now that he had defeated Han Yu, he should be able to seize this vacant place!

If the competition was the only issue, he wouldn’t be particularly rejoiced, because he hoped to increase his combat experience against powerful opponents, while arousing his potential.

But this last day was different. He was indeed on the verge of having his spiritual energy liquefied, after figuring out how [Storing Power] could be used as a training method. In such circumstances, what he needed the most was some time of quiet practice.
