[Second update, one more update, four more updates tomorrow.]
Zola suddenly became serious and said to Sha Man with a straight face, "You have to apologize for your words!"
Sha Man also realized her mistake. She did not lose her temper like a child, but instead stood up straight and lowered her head, saying, "I'm sorry, Master Zola. I should cherish my own honor. I'm a member of Metatlin City, I shouldn't have said that. "
"It's good that you know. I'm not just teaching you swordsmanship, I'm also establishing your prestige in this army. You don't even value the city you protect, how can the soldiers risk their lives? "Zola did not soften his tone and continued to criticize Sha Man.
"From now on, I won't make the same mistake again," Sha Man replied, swallowing her anger. Salin had given the order that if Zola was not satisfied with her, she would never be able to lead the army of the Temple of God.
"When the fourth dynasty collapsed, Qinyin was the first to be founded. It had the most land and the smallest population. It even directly clashed with the other three empires. In the end, it was the Qinyin Empire that won. Qinyin's territory is the most fertile on the continent. Do you know why? "
"Qinyin has the best mages!"
"Wrong, it's because Qinyin was the first to liberate the slaves and gave the commoners a better living space. The soldiers from the commoner class started to have a sense of honor, and the knight class died out. "
"Commoners?" Sha Man, who was born into a noble family, did not understand. Although she maintained a superficial modesty towards the commoners, that was only part of her upbringing. She might not really think that commoners could be compared to her. It was always the nobles who ruled the country.
"Sha Man, a person can start learning magic or swordsmanship at the age of six. If two children have the same talent, when the child who learns swordsmanship becomes a high-level swordsman, the child who learns magic is likely to only be a third or even a second rank mage. It's too easy to train soldiers, and there's no limit to talent. How many people can a mage kill? Once a mage dies, it's difficult to get replacements. So, what determines Qinyin's fate is the advanced system of the Qinyin people. "
"Master Zola, you're not telling me this because I said something wrong, are you?" Sha Man was very smart. She could feel that Zola really had something to talk to her about.
"Yes, I have something to talk to you about. I want to raise your strength in the next period of time."
"Increase my strength? Master Zola, I'm still young. "Sha Man pouted.
Jorah's finger pointed forward and directly touched a wooden pillar erected beside him. The wooden pillar was placed around the training field and was used to quickly build defensive fortifications.
Sharman's eyes widened. She was shocked to see a strand of golden Sword Qi shoot out from Zola's finger. The upper half of the wooden pole directly turned into powder. It was so fine that it was even finer than Yun Liu's wheat flour.
"You've advanced!" Sharman's voice trembled. This was the first time she had seen someone advance from Silver Sword Saint to Gold Sword Saint. As a martial artist, she was very excited.
"It can't be considered an advancement. I've just begun to master some of the golden sword qi's power and opened up the path to advancement. From now on, at least the Silver Sword Saints are no longer my opponents, "Zola answered proudly.
Sharman was intimidated by Zola's strength. Although a Silver Sword Saint was stronger than her, there was still a long way to go. As for Gold Sword Saints, there were fewer than 9th Rank High Mages on this continent.
"Sharman, my advancement is very abnormal. You also know that although learning swordsmanship is related to talent, ordinary people can quickly cultivate the sword qi within their bodies and become swordsmen. Along the way, as long as one is willing to endure hardships, becoming a High Rank Swordsman isn't a problem. My talent is quite good, and I became a Silver Sword Saint very early on. My understanding of sword qi is deeper than most people's, so I know that if I want to advance to Gold Sword Saint, I'll need at least ten years of hard work. "
Sharman listened attentively. Zola claiming to be less than 30 years old shouldn't be considered a lie. In another ten years, he would only be 40 years old. A 40-year-old Gold Sword Saint was indeed a talented person.
"But recently, I've felt signs of a breakthrough for no reason. You also know that I spend most of my time training you. I rarely comprehend swordsmanship on my own."
"That's impossible!" Sharman also felt that it was a bit strange. If one didn't work hard to advance to Gold Sword Saint, then wouldn't the world be filled with powerhouses?
"But that's the truth. I think that as long as I have an opportunity, once I gain new insights, I'll be able to advance immediately."
"Opportunity?"
"Yes, opportunity. Learning swordsmanship is the same as learning magic. A lot of knowledge has to be obtained from life. I teach you swordsmanship every day, and my ability to command troops has already surpassed that of an ordinary person for too long! "Zola said gloomily.
Sharman then discovered that Zola's armor today was the kind that was engraved with exquisite patterns. It was something that people of the court swordsman camp would wear when they were guards of honor.
"Master Zola, are you going to give up on high-level equipment and rely on your own strength to train hard?" A trace of admiration finally appeared in Sharman's eyes. That hoodlum Zola had recently been taking liberties with the Gaugass female warriors and had been beaten until he pissed his pants. She hadn't expected him to adjust his mentality so quickly and put his thoughts back on swordsmanship.
"No, I said that insights need to be lived. Back then, I had a woman for the first time, and then advanced to Silver Sword Saint. If I want to smoothly advance to Gold Sword Saint, I think I need more love from women. "
"Master Zola, why don't you go and die?" The admiration in Sharman's eyes disappeared. If she hadn't been afraid of hurting her feet, she would have kicked Zola's butt long ago.
"You little kid, what do you know? I'm going to take you back to the shrine, and I won't be personally practicing the soldiers' daily confrontations for a month."
"What are you doing?!" Sharman hugged her chest and looked at Zola with some alarm.
"What are you doing!" Zola also hugged his head and looked at Sharman helplessly.
"Master Zola, you need women, but I'm still young, and the one I like is Big Brother Salin!" Sharman shouted. The soldiers in the distance looked over and stretched out their fingers that had been used to break the wooden stake, fiercely waving them in front of Sharman.
"If you keep spouting nonsense, this kind of thing might happen. I even dared to abduct the princess of the Flowing Clouds Emperor, so don't use the same tricks you use on others on me! "
Sharman turned pale. She had heard of what Zola had done. At that time, she had thought that this man was very boring, but now she realized that Zola was very bold, so bold that it gave her a headache.
Even if Zola was very handsome, Sharman didn't want to fall into his evil claws. She had to give her first time to a man she loved, and that man definitely wasn't Zola, because Zola was too fickle, and he was also very powerful, so she couldn't control him.
"Master Zola, I'll listen to you." Sharman lowered her hands and obediently stood there.
"That's right, come back to the shrine with me. I want to see if you can reach the Silver Sword Saint realm in a month."
"One month!" Sharman's eyes widened. She had just been talking about Zola, but now she was talking about herself. This kind of shock was on a completely different level.
"Yes, one month. You don't know, but too many people have advanced in the past half a year, and almost all of them have become swordsmen. I really don't understand why this kind of strange situation is happening. "But one thing is certain, these people's advancement has nothing to do with talent."
While Zola was considering using Sharman as an experiment, to see if what he had guessed was true, inside the shrine, Shika was calmly eating under the supervision of a dozen Gaugass Warriors.
Not being able to exercise and train with the warriors, Shika should have been in a low mood, but she was in a very good mood now.
Because she had advanced. Although she wasn't a Nature Priest, she had advanced in terms of combat skills. The Magic Beast bone that the Winged Skeleton had given her had been integrated into her weapon, and the Magic Beast Battle Soul had directly awakened, giving Shika the power she had been yearning for. What made her the happiest was that this was the purest kind of Magic Beast Battle Soul, without the slightest bit of berserk power.
What kind of bone was that? The Battle Soul awakened inside had directly increased Shika's power by a few dozen times. This was pure power. If Shika met a dragon again, she definitely wouldn't be beaten half to death. Instead, she would be able to compete with a dragon in terms of strength.
It was very difficult for an Earth Priest to advance to a Nature Priest, because Shika started as a Battle Priest, which was much more difficult than a Beast Soul Priest. But the awakening of the Beast Soul in this bone meant that there were no more obstacles on Shika's path to advancement.
The Magic Beast remains that she had obtained from Rafael's Magic Tower had also completely controlled the Battle Soul. From now on, Shika would be able to exert her full combat power, and she wouldn't be limited by equipment like before.
Two Magic Beast Battle Souls were no longer enough for Shika. She could now control a third Magic Beast Battle Soul. And the third Battle Soul was also in the process of awakening, and it would now exist in Shika's Bone Necklace.
After the three Battle Souls were completely subdued, the child in her womb would be born with the ability to control three powerful Magic Beast Battle Souls. In the future, she would be able to learn any skills of the priest at an astonishing speed.
Because of this, Shika had been quietly cultivating the Magic Beast Battle Soul every day.
The Gaugass warriors were afraid that Shika's pregnancy would be affected, so they took turns to send a dozen warriors whose strength was equivalent to that of a Sword Saint or above to accompany Shika every day. Because Shika had advanced, she let Zola leave the Temple.
The threat of Alchemy City was now much smaller for her. If she attacked him at close range, no magic shield would be able to block her attack. Maybe a Gold Sword Saint could still resist, but the body of a Level-Nine Magic Shooter was still relatively weak.
