"Be careful, I'm coming."

Long Fan performed a knight's salute.

"Come on. Big sister's swords are already hungry for a fight."

As she spoke, Li Xin, a faint smile on her face, drew the twin swords from her back.

Holding his Double Iron Swords, Long Fan fixed his gaze on them.

Her twin swords looked far more ornate, their blades giving off a pale golden sheen.

They were three feet two inches long, and the engraved runes upon them radiated a rich holy aura.

Yet there was not the slightest loss of confidence in his eyes because of the difference in their weapons.

Li Xin was secretly taken aback.

With weapons in hand, Long Fan carried a sharpness beneath his cold demeanor.

Somehow, he made even her, someone who had become a knight long ago, feel considerable pressure.

Nalan Shu looked toward the divided battlefield and took a few steps back.

Putting away his carefree manner, he said gravely,

"Begin."

As he spoke, he focused on both sides of the battle as the referee.

Making sure neither side injured the other during the match.

At his word,

Long Fan moved.

Each stride was not particularly long, but his pace was incredibly fast.

A short-range Knight's Charge!

His right-hand sword was held before him, while his left-hand sword was drawn behind his back.

In almost an instant, he thrust himself before Li Xin.

He drove out a direct thrust, locking onto Li Xin's left shoulder.

Li Xin hurriedly flicked her left-hand sword upward.

But Long Fan fiercely stomped his right foot, bringing his Charge to an abrupt halt.

His body paused with it, and the Fine Iron Sword he had thrust out feinted.

Avoiding Li Xin's upward slash, he unleashed his true killing move.

Taking advantage of her being misled, he followed up with the second-tier skill, Pure White Blade.

The blade in Long Fan's hand instantly lit up.

Then it stabbed out like lightning.

Its target was still Li Xin's left shoulder.

However, Li Xin did not panic.

After all, she was a true knight with considerable combat experience.

The moment her sword swung into empty air, her right-hand sword had already moved horizontally in front of her.

Clang!

Steel struck steel.

Although the material of her golden sword was relatively better,

Long Fan's thrust was powerful and heavy.

Besides, there was far too great a difference between blocking one-handed and thrusting straight ahead.

Li Xin was forced back several steps.

But Long Fan's movements barely paused.

His right-hand sword was blocked, so he directly raised his left arm with the Fine Iron Sword.

At the same time, he took a step forward.

He launched the first-tier skill, Charge, once more.

This time, however, he changed his thrust into a chopping slash.

As the Charge came to a halt, he closed the distance.

Using the tips of his feet as a pivot, he swiftly spun and swung his sword.

Whoosh!

The white-glowing Pure White Blade came crashing down upon Li Xin.

Li Xin first braced herself by pushing back with her heel, stabilizing her retreating body.

Her body dipped slightly as her left-hand sword swept upward again.

Her right-hand sword stabbed forward like lightning.

One hand defended.

The other counterattacked.

Clang!

The two swords collided.

Long Fan's powerful downward slash collided with Li Xin's upward strike.

Li Xin's body swayed.

However, her Lightning Thrust had already reached Long Fan.

Seeing this, Long Fan's right-hand sword moved again.

The dancing sword shadows came one after another.

Sealing Word Technique!

A series of dense clangs of steel rang out without end.

Sparks flew in bursts before the two of them.

But every attack of Li Xin's Lightning Thrust was blocked by Long Fan's sword.

Moreover, Long Fan seized the opportunity to launch a counterattack.

His twin swords swung, one horizontal and one vertical.

Second-tier skill, Cross Slash!

Come out!

It erupted in an instant.

Li Xin, who had unleashed Lightning Thrust, had yet to gather fresh strength.

At that moment, she had no follow-up sword technique prepared to respond.

At this point, she could only use the all-around defense, Ascension Array!

A pale golden glow lit up around Li Xin as she thrust one sword into the ground with one hand.

Golden radiance abruptly burst forth, forming a shield of light around Li Xin.

Clang! Clang—

Long Fan's Cross Slash was blocked by the golden shield and rebounded.

He was pushed back several steps by the recoil.

But Long Fan raised his twin swords and gathered strength once more.

With a small step beneath him, his whole body leaped into the air.

His twin swords struck out.

His right hand instantly unleashed the third-tier Lightning Thrust, while his left hand instantly unleashed the third-tier Light's Revenge.

Bzz—

Finally, he sprang upward.

Bang—

The Ascension Array shook violently.

Before Long Fan even landed,

his right-hand sword chopped down at her head again.

The fourth-tier Sun Flare Slash was delivered!

Although the ordinary Fine Iron Sword had no additional enhancement whatsoever,

it still directly shattered Li Xin's third-tier great shield.

The light blade of Sun Flare Slash descended with its remaining force.

Whoosh—

Having lost her shield, Li Xin nearly closed her eyes.

But Long Fan flicked his blade.

The golden blade-light he had slashed out struck the ground off target.

Seeing this, Nalan Shu's eyes were filled with shock.

Li Xin, who opened her eyes, was somewhat dejected.

She never could have imagined that she, an experienced knight, would actually lose.

"Not bad, kid! You nearly made big sister fall for your trick."

Long Fan scratched his head and merely smiled without saying anything.

At that moment, the notification sound of the god-tier Deep Blue System rang out.

Ding! Rewards for this battle's settlement are now being distributed. Please check them.

With a thought, Long Fan opened the attribute rewards and saw:

Free Attribute Points*1, Outer Spiritual Power Attribute Points*51, Equipment Attribute Points*88, Skill Attribute Points*101

Over on Long Xiaogua's side, he had also won his first battle.

He had already used the Radiant Knight's signature skill, Divine Guard Block, also known as one of the most overpowered skills in the knight class.

It forcibly erased the spiritual power gap between him and Knight Sean.

Leaving his opponent unable to make a move.

Knight Sean's sword-gripping hand was even numbed by the impact.

He retreated again and again.

At this moment, Nalan Shu's heart was filled with disbelief.

"Are you crazy? You call this an Apprentice Knight?!"

Even the popular Swords and Magic novels on the market would not dare write something like this!!

After watching the supplementary examination of the two "Apprentice Knights," Nalan Shu found his feelings impossible to describe.

There were eccentric geniuses every year, but this year had especially many!

Long Fan and Long Xiaogua walked over and asked,

"Hall Master Nalan, have we passed the examination?" X2

Only then did Nalan Shu recover his senses. He nodded and said,

"Of course you've passed. Wait here a moment. I'll go get the items."

With that, he quickly turned and left.

Yet his immense shock over the two little monsters could not settle for a long time.

Before long,

he returned from the second-floor office with two sets of items.

One was a round badge engraved with a "shield and sword," the rank badge of an Apprentice Knight.

Each star on it represented one level.

Long Fan's had six stars, while Long Xiaogua's had one.

There was also an egg-sized golden-yellow gemstone: the Awakening Stone.

"Thank you." X2

After accepting the items and putting them away, the two respectfully thanked Nalan Shu.

Nalan Shu and Li Xin escorted them all the way to the door.

As they walked, Nalan Shu could not help asking curiously,

"Xiaofan, can you tell Uncle how you raised your spiritual power so quickly?"

There was even a faint trace of longing on his chubby face.

Long Fan answered solemnly,

"I relied on myself, cultivating diligently step by step, and undergoing rigorous training under my master's guidance."

Nalan Shu nodded, then turned to his niece, Li Xin.

"Did you hear that? There is always someone better out there. You, the number one genius of Haoyue Branch Hall, must work harder in your cultivation from now on."

Li Xin pouted her cherry-red lips.

She muttered, "Got it. You're even more nagging than my dad."

Before parting, they asked for directions to the Adventurers' Guild.

Then Long Fan and Long Xiaogua hurried over.

The two of them still had the task of an old Genshin player turning in quests.

They had to make a trip to the Adventurers' Guild.

After saying goodbye, the two set off together along the route they had been given.

It was around one kilometer away.

For two Apprentice Knights who could move as swiftly as they walked, they arrived in minutes.
