Chapter 547: Mage Temple (III)
But he was clad in the Golden Foundation knight which could only be obtained by a powerhouse reaching at least the eighth step! And furthermore, no Golden Foundation Knight could be less than excellent among knights of the eighth step. Some Holy Knights of the ninth step didn’t even have such qualifications.
It should be absolutely impossible for someone of an age similar to Han Yu or Lin Xin to have became a Golden Foundation Knight, or at least, elder Fei thought so. He absolutely didn’t believe such a genius to exist. Furthermore, this Golden Foundation knight had the status of Provisional Saint Knight Head, clad in Golden Foundation Armor of epic tier, which meant that he should be among the top powerhouses with the status of Golden Foundation Knight. And a sufficiently high contribution was needed to gain such an honor. The Saint Knight of the previous generation, Han Qian, was a Temple Head for the Knight Temple, spokesperson of the Alliance’s chief Yang Haohan.
However, elder Fei didn’t ask about this. For one, his status couldn’t compare with Long Haochen’s, and also because nosing around others’ secret was impolite. Long Haochen’s light element was assurance that he couldn’t be something such as an undiscovered traitor.
Under the lead of this elder, Long Haochen’s group was brought to the Mage Temple’s second floor, and had three separate rooms arranged for them.
The three of them could be considered as having gone through the hardship of travel, and made themselves presentable before having some food delivered by the Mage Temple, and finally the three of them gathered in Haochen’s room.
“The Mage Temple doesn’t seem friendly with us!” Long Haochen said with a smile.
Han Yu unhappily replied, “It’s not only unfriendliness. It’s practically hostility.”
Long Haochen wrinkled his brows, a serious expression on his face, “I didn’t expect the relationship between the Mage Temple and our Knight Temple to have already become so strained. At this rate, it will end up as a large issue in the future. If things are that way with the strong enemies at our doors, I fear that if things remain that way after the end of the war, the Alliance will collapse even without needing the demons to attack us.”
Han Yu nodded, “Our contradictions with the Mage Temple have been terrible for a long time already. Almost every time a Temple Ranking contest takes place, our two Temples are the ones in competition. We have been pushing down the Mage Temple for so long that it would be rather strange to see them delighted about that. Although it’s not as if they can oppose us in all aspects, at least our relationship is definitely not good.”
Long Haochen said, “Let’s keep talking after Lin Xin comes. From what elder Fei said, Lin Xin’s status in the Mage Temple is not low. I hope that he can serve as a mediator.”
As they were talking, a respectful voice was heard from outside, “Senior Saint Knight Head, Temple Head is asking for you.”
The three of them looked at each other face to face, then stood up together.
Outside the door, a young mage was standing waiting. Upon seeing Long Haochen, he immediately made a gesture of invitation to him.
When Cai’er and Han Yu were about to follow him, the mage stopped them, “Sorry, but Temple Head only wants to meet Saint Knight Head.”
Han Yu, who originally had a lot pent up, was immediately about to flare up, but Long Haochen turned his head, making shaking movements, suppressing Han Yu’s rage.
“Please go back to your own rooms. I will be back rapidly. Maybe Lin Xin will be there in a bit.”
Long Haochen followed the mage that came for him up to the top floor of the Mage Temple. The entrance to the floor was a gate over three meters high.
Passing through this gate, Long Haochen was immediately shocked.
Behind the door was an extremely wide space, at least far larger than the Mage Temple’s outside shape. And furthermore, the magic essence was even more viscous and pure.
The immense hall extended over several hundred meters, surrounded by some sliding doors, with a magic Star of David in the middle of the hall. That young mage brought him in front of the six-pointed star, and spoke, “Please step onto the magic array. It will allow you to enter the senior Temple Head’s office.”
Long Haochen asked with great curiosity, “What place is this floor?”
“Every room here is a training field, and some are residences for high ranked mages. Only seniors of the Saint Magic Tutor rank and above are allowed to reside here.”
