In the ancient and magnificent council hall of Blackrock Castle, the seat of the rulers of the entire Europe continent, a battle of epic proportions between the two strongest beings of the era is unfolding.

Alexander Corvinus rushed to Chen Mo's side with astonishing speed, his longsword piercing the air with unparalleled force, heading straight for Chen Mo's chest.

The immense power and astonishing speed that erupted in that move caused Andrew, Victor, and the others present to change their expressions drastically.

The battle between Chen Mo and Alexander Corvinus on the sailboat ended quickly, and they didn't know how strong Corvinus really was. Only now did they realize that the target Chen Mo had been searching for for years was actually so powerful.

Faced with Alexander Corvinus's unparalleled and swift sword strike, Chen Mo's eyes shone brightly, and he felt his blood boiling. His mind was clearer and more focused than ever before.

This is what battle feels like!

With his eyes fixed on the Speed thrusting sword in front of him, Chen Mo used the power of his legs and waist to rotate his upper body to the left and parry with his sword. At the same time, his center of gravity shifted to the right, dodging the attack trajectory of Alexander Corvinus's longsword.

The rotation of the body drives the shoulders and arms. The power of the whole body rises from the feet, passes through the waist, back, shoulders and arms, and the power of each part is continuously added and accumulated, reaching its peak in the rotation.

Chen Mo's longsword, carrying immense force, struck Alexander Corvinus's thrusting sword from the side with the force of wind and thunder.

"Bang!"

With a resounding clang of swords clashing, Alexander Corvinus's powerful sword strike was deflected by Chen Mo.

At this moment, Corvinus had already rushed in front of Chen Mo. Before he could turn his sword around and launch another attack, Chen Mo took a step forward and, using the rebound force from the previous attack, slashed his longsword horizontally from left to right towards Alexander Corvinus.

Alexander Corvinus was not flustered at all when Chen Mo parried Chen Mo swift thrust and countered with a counter-attack.

Without stopping, he continued to charge forward, twisting his body at the same time. The longsword in his hand, which had been deflected, retreated and parried almost simultaneously with Chen Mo. In the nick of time, he used the blade to block Chen Mo's horizontal slash.

"Bang! Sizzle!!..."

The crisp sound of swords clashing echoed throughout the hall.

Chen Mo's blade grazed Alexander Corvinus's sword, sending sparks flying, but he couldn't cut the longsword in two as he had before.

Both of their attacks were blocked by the other, and without any pause, the two clashed again.

In an instant, the sound of swords clashing echoed throughout the hall. The two figures moved swiftly and rapidly through the hall. Even with the superhuman eyesight of the Vampire Knight, they could not keep up with their speed, let alone see the details of their battle.

At this moment, in the magnificent and spacious Castle hall, besides Chen Mo and Alexander Corvinus who were fighting, there were also Andrew, Victor, Amelia, and dozens of Vampire Knight guarding the area.

Just as Chen Mo and his companion were locked in fierce combat, and all the Knight's attention was drawn to the two in the arena, a beautifully sculpted blonde girl, only eight or nine years old, wearing an adorable princess dress, stumbled in through an entrance connecting the hall to the interior of the Castle.

Upon hearing the news of the Knights' triumphant return, the little girl rushed over. As soon as she entered the hall, she saw the Lord and a dignified middle-aged man with white hair and beard facing off with swords. She quickly ran behind Amelia, grabbed her cloak with both hands, and quietly peeked out from behind her to look at the two fighting in the arena.

Amelia had already heard the small footsteps behind her, and a smile involuntarily appeared on her lips. When the little girl ran up behind her and peeked out from behind her cloak, Amelia slowly stretched out her right hand and gently stroked the little head that was pressed against her thigh.

"Selene, look carefully."

As Amelia spoke, her eyes never left the two people fighting in the arena. Being able to witness such a battle between supreme beings was an invaluable experience for each of them, from which they could benefit greatly.

The little girl, Selene, nodded gently upon hearing this, letting Amelia's slender fingers stroke her head. She pressed her face against Amelia's thigh, her big blue eyes fixed intently on the two people fighting fiercely in the arena, her face full of seriousness.

This little girl is the same one Chen Mo encountered in the workshop who was nearly trampled by warhorses. She is the granddaughter of Kane, the workshop manager, and her father Bert, was in charge of building the dungeon where William was imprisoned.

Upon first hearing her name, Chen Mo had a guess in his mind. When he learned that her father was a craftsman skilled in dungeon construction, Chen Mo was basically certain that this cute little girl was the female protagonist of the movie "Underworld," the vampire warrior Selene.

Chen Mo was deeply impressed by the dashing and charming female lead in the movie. However, he never expected that the future protagonist of this world would have her whole family living in his territory, and that her grandfather was the workshop manager appointed by him personally.

After confirming Selene's identity, Chen Mo naturally paid even more attention to this cute little girl. After Marcus transformed everyone in the workshop into vampires, Chen Mo brought Selene into the Castle and entrusted her to Amelia, the only female Knight in the Knights, to teach her. He also allowed her free access to the workshop and the Castle.

Amelia also adored this beautiful and adorable little girl. She would always take her with her when she was in the Castle, teaching her with great care and treating her like her own daughter.

Selene also liked her beautiful and noble master, who was very cold to others but very gentle to her. Although Amelia was very strict when teaching her swordsmanship, she still liked to be by her side. Although the two were not related by blood, they were like a real mother and daughter.

Not only Amelia, but every Knight in the Castle loved the innocent and adorable little Selene. When they returned to the Castle after fighting and killing enemies, all the murderous intent in their hearts would instantly dissipate, and they would feel as if they were coming home.

With Selene, the entire solemn and dull Blackrock Castle became much more vibrant and beautiful.

The Lord's special treatment and the doting affection of Amelia and the other Knight made Selene the little princess of the entire Castle. No one was willing to bully her, and no one dared to bully her.

However, Selene did not become arrogant because of everyone's love for her. She remained as innocent, kind, obedient, and cute as before.

At this moment, Selene hid behind Amelia, watching the battle between the two intently. Her big eyes were wide open. She had never seen such an intense and rapid battle before. Compared to the competitions between the Knight uncles in the past, this was far inferior.

Looking at Chen Mo was dressed in a black robe and wielded his sword like the wind, Selene's bright eyes were filled with admiration. So the Lord was really that powerful!

As the battle progressed, Chen Mo gained a certain understanding of Alexander Corvinus's strength. His strength and speed were about six times that of an ordinary person, roughly equivalent to Chen Mo's in basic aspects, but his combat skills and experience were even superior to Chen Mo's. Chen Mo could only barely cope by relying on his superior perception and reaction.

The two were evenly matched, each with their own strengths, and for a time they were evenly matched, with Alexander Corvinas having a slight advantage.

However, Chen Mo's learning ability was simply too strong. In the fierce battle, Chen Mo quickly accumulated experience, learned Alexander Corvinus's superb combat skills, and made them his own.

The skill gap between the two began to narrow, and they soon became evenly matched. Alexander Corvinas went from being cautious at the beginning, to feeling relaxed and confused after gaining the upper hand, and now he was gradually being suppressed by Chen Mo, and the expression on his face became more and more surprised.

The longer the battle went on, the greater the pressure felt from Chen Mo. Alexander Corvinus had been wondering why Chen Mo, this "god," was less skilled than himself.

Alexander Corvinus was shocked but also relieved when he discovered Chen Mo's terrifying learning ability and speed of progress.

Perhaps, in the past, the god did not need to fight with a sword. He could easily burn his enemies by controlling Thunder. But now, once he uses a longsword, he can quickly learn various combat techniques. His swordsmanship becomes stronger in a short time, and he may even surpass him, the strongest swordsman of the world.

The battle between the two continued, and Alexander Corvinus was no longer as relaxed as he had been at the beginning of the fight.

Even though he used all his skills and brought out the best in his powerful combat techniques that he had honed over hundreds of years and countless battles, he still couldn't reverse the disadvantage and was instead suppressed more and more by Chen Mo.

In the end, he was left with only the ability to parry, and was forced to retreat repeatedly by Chen Mo's continuous and fierce attacks, frantically swinging his long sword to barely defend himself.

"Clang! Clang! Clang! Clang!..."

After a series of rapid clashes of swords, Alexander Corvinus finally couldn't defend himself any longer, and his sword was knocked away by Chen Mo. Immediately afterwards, Chen Mo's sword was placed against his neck.

Looking at Chen Mo, who held a long sword and exuded a strong aura of sharpness, Alexander Corvinus showed no sign of disappointment or discouragement. Instead, he was filled with astonishment and shock, feeling utterly amazed.

Chen Mo's swordsmanship has made such an astonishing improvement in such a short period of time!
