Chapter 540: Rank Preparation
her attendants present two scripture books, saying with a smile:"Your Majesty, this is a scripture copied by Rong Shijun. Since your last fainting spell, he has been copying scriptures to pray for you...Rinne's confidence stems from the divine power carried in her spirit being bestowed upon Lian. This compensates for the original body's shortcomings as a knight, allowing her to surpass her level and exert greater strength.
Hearing the ripples' words, the boss immediately laughed gleefully and said:
Of course, we have swords suitable for Golden Knights here. Why don't you and I go to the second floor to choose
The ripples turned to face Gray and said:
"Gray brother, please take a look at this for me."
Grey didn't respond immediately, he remembered his position, so he looked to Leia.
Leia nodded, pleased with the response, and then followed after him, smiling.
"Gray's helping you choose a sword, so I'll just join in the fun and broaden my horizons."
"Raul, let's go!"
The ripples addressed Raoul, who was still on the first floor looking around.
"Well, here I am!"
Then Raul followed suit, and the whole group went up to the second floor.
The boss pulled out three swords at once. Regardless of the material, refining technique, or appearance, they were all top-notch weapons.
Ripples scanned each blade, picking them up one by one. He felt the swords' weight and shape before carefully examining their outward appearance.
The boss knew that these people were all wealthy and wouldn't be short of gold coins, even their guards were golden knights. So he didn't say much to introduce them, after taking out his sword, he stood quietly beside him, only answering when asked a question.
After Grey had observed the three swords in ripples, he approached each one and grasped it, channeling his power as a Golden Knight into the blade. After sensing each one individually, he handed the sword with a length of 1.2 meters and a white crystal inlaid on the hilt to Ripples.
"Young Master Lian, this sword has the best power transmission, able to maximize your Silver Knight's abilities."
After the ripples, she also learned from Grey's example and inputted her own knightly power into it. She was a Silver Knight, so as she poured her strength into the blade, a faint silvery light emanated from its edge. As more power flowed in, it gradually transformed into a brilliant white gold.
Grey's heart skipped a beat. He was certain that Young Master Lian wasn't lying. He could indeed wield weapons of the Golden Knight rank. Grey believed that it was only a matter of time before Young Master Lian broke through to the Golden Knight rank, especially considering he hadn't reached adulthood yet and didn't have a contract phantom beast.
It goes without saying that once Lian comes of age and obtains a contract fantasy beast, her strength will undoubtedly reach new heights.
Leia received Grey's hints and felt increasingly regretful for her rash actions in the past. She only hoped that in future trials, she could slowly change Lian's view of her.
Ripple didn't care about the previous squabble between Grey and Leia. She was very satisfied with the sword Grey had chosen for her, so she directly asked the boss:
"Boss, is there anything special about this sword"
"The young master and this knight have good eyes. This is the treasure of our shop. The Golden Knight can bring out its full power, and it's a pair of swords."
The boss laughed and stepped forward, pressing his finger on the end of the sword hilt. Then, with a pull, a short sword only eighty centimeters long separated from the longer blade.
This dagger has the same lethality as its mother sword, and it's even more hidden and less noticeable. It can catch an opponent off guard.
As a top cultivator in the cultivation world, he wasn't surprised by this sword within a sword technique. However, this was his first time seeing it in the magical continent.
"Indeed, it can catch the other party off guard, especially when they think they have the upper hand."
Leia also chimed in, playfully brandishing her short sword.
"Alright, I'll take this sword then."
Ripple decisively took the sword.
La Ye immediately dragged the boss away to discuss the price. Although they weren't short of gold coins, they didn't want to be taken advantage of.
After Ripples sheathed his sword back into the spatial compartment at his waist, he prepared to head to the place where the Knight's Appraisal was held. Grey diligently reminded him:
"Young Master Lian, if you use this sword in the competition, you'll need to input your own power into it over the next two days to forge a deeper connection with it."
"I understand, thank you for reminding me."
Ripple smiled and agreed, waiting until La Ye paid the coins before they went to their usual spot.
Palo City, being the home base of the Knights Association, boasts a multitude of arenas for duels. With twenty large, medium, and small arenas open daily, tickets are available to the public, allowing everyone to witness the competitions.
This time, the five of them bought tickets for the medium-sized fighting arena where the Golden Knight was, and watched an afternoon of fights.
Golden Knights are not the least common in the magical continent, but they are also a formidable fighting force. Their application of internal power and cooperation with their contracted phantom beasts have reached a high level. It wouldn't be an exaggeration to say that they can act as an entire army by themselves.
Ripples could sense the surging power emanating from the newly promoted Golden Knight. She hadn't felt this on Gray because he had completely contained his power within himself, only releasing it when he made a move.
After witnessing the duel of the Golden Knight, Ripples gained an understanding of the knight's rating process and returned to the White family's castle with everyone. For the next few days, she had no intention of going out and planned to take good care of her newly purchased sword.
Meanwhile, Ewen Rhoden remained on the Spirit's Grave and, together with the mages present, completely sealed the spatial passage of the Sea of Soulflowers.
To prevent the other party from reopening the spatial rift again, Ivan also set up a warning magic circle, enclosing the entire hill. As long as the Soul Flower Sea doesn't disappear, the magic circle won't trigger an alarm. Once the Soul Flower Sea fades away like last time, the magic circle loses its power supply and will sound the alarm.
After finishing everything, Ivan stayed in Sol City for two days before returning directly to Lava City with Emilio.
By the time Emiliano returned to Lava City, Ripple had already contacted her father and proposed selling the detoxifying elixir. She also shared her plans regarding Raul, White, and the Nasi family with him.
"Such a powerful potion It allowed you to break through to Silver Knight in such a short time"
Connor is still skeptical.
Of course, Father, I am now in Palos City, preparing for this year's knight ranking assessment. Once I receive the silver medal, you won't doubt me anymore.
Ripples didn't expect to be able to persuade her father all at once.
“Okay, I'll wait for your good news! Since you have so much confidence in this potion, why don't you have Raul prepare two batches and have Raje deliver them back with a magic circle I'll arrange for people here to try it out and see how effective it is before making a decision. That way, I can also convince the Elder Three.”
Elder Three is the chief alchemist of the Rodeman family, responsible for potion brewing and supply. He has the most say in the family.
"I listen to my father."
Ripple readily agreed, there's nothing more convincing than experiencing it firsthand.
"Father, please don't let my elder brother know about what's happening here for now."
Before the magic circle's communication was severed, ripples added another sentence.e twitched his lips, feeling that the other party must be the kind of girl who had learned some martial arts for just two or three days and dreamed of becoming a wandering heroine in the Jianghu."In t...
