After the battle between Han Dong and Grim Reaper, the standard of the [Knight Tournament] was raised to the highest level. The passion in the arena was completely ignited.
The second last round of the tournament.
Once again, a graduate won.
The winner was also a student from the Underground area. His attribute leaned toward "undying." He set the record for the longest time in the semifinals — three hours and forty-nine minutes.
He won by exhausting the knight's stamina.
This unique way of winning also attracted the attention of many people. As his body was hidden in a cloak that was specially made and hard to break, no one could see his true appearance.
Thus, there were three Underground students worth paying attention to.
The last round of the semifinals.
Finally, it was Mia's turn to fight. The Hell Knights in charge of the assessment.
Since they knew that Mia was the witch's top female student, the Hell Knights sent out an elite Hell Knight with more than ten years of combat experience to suppress Mia as soon as she entered the arena.
Absolute destruction and brute force had been suppressing Mia throughout the entire battle.
"A Mystery Branch student actually has such sword skills and body movements?"
When Mia dodged or parried his many fierce attacks, the dual-wielding Hell Knight slowly realized that things were not as simple as he thought. He had to be serious in order to deal with this graduate.
At the same time, the [Knights of Misfortune] also saw Mia's "spider curse" in the competition.
In the end, the Hell Knight detonated the Mark of Hell on his body, instantly burning all the spider webs that Mia had spread on the arena. Taking advantage of the explosive force, Mia didn't even have the chance to react, and he kicked her off the arena.
It took a total of thirty-one minutes.
It took much longer than Malone and Otto, the two leaders of the Hell Knights, expected.
To be able to fight with an elite Hell Knight for such a long time, it meant that Mia had a lot of combat experience.
"Leader … this female student has the spider attribute and with the [Hell Spider Demon], there might be unexpected developments.
Moreover, she's also very proficient in herbology. In the previous battle, she had more than ten rapid herbology treatments.
If she joins our team and is trained well, she might become a unique captain. "
At the same time.
The Hell Knight in charge of testing Mia's ability, Turaba Congo, returned.
The black knight's seemingly strong physique was unharmed in the battle.
Currently, in the knight regiment, when he slowly took off his armor, there was a scar on his lower abdomen that was constantly emitting purplish-black aura. It was difficult to heal … but this was not the most serious problem.
The real danger was the pair of dark purple fangs on the knight's neck.
Strange cursed scriptures had already formed around the fangs.
With the curse as the core, it could trigger the other wounds on the knight's body and prevent them from healing themselves. It was eroding his body every second.
"He's very strong … His swordsmanship isn't any weaker than the Crusader graduates of the same level.
Furthermore, the Weapon of Fate in her hand was completely compatible with her own attributes. When used together, her moves were quite strange.
Her Talent Tree also seems to be very special, belonging to the Spider Curse Tree … Her future potential is limitless. "
As he spoke, the black knight gently touched the hole on the side of his neck due to the pain.
A small amount of thick juice flowed out from the inside and needed to be treated.
"Ao Tuo, pay attention to this female student as well. If possible, recruit her as well."
"Alright!"
…
The defeated Mia naturally had a disheartened look. She even felt that she had lost too much face and was somewhat unwilling to return to the team.
However, what welcomed her was Han Dong's hug.
For the first time, the man that Mia loved was actually so proactive.
This unexpected action made Mia's cheeks flushed red. Because of the surge of blood, the wound that had just been stitched up split open again … She immediately fell into Han Dong's arms due to weakness.
"Your performance was very good …"
Han Dong gave a very high evaluation of Mia's battle this time. After all, the opponent was not an ordinary knight.
Mia had several 'hidden attacks' that were quite strange. If the opponent was an ordinary knight, the final result would be Mia's victory.
That was it.
The semi-finals were all over.
Due to the serious overtime in the middle of the competition, it was already evening. The schedule of the knight election would be appropriately extended.
The observer Alonso announced: "Due to the time problem and a few disputes about the scoring, the finals will be extended to tomorrow. The list of the ten who advanced to the finals will also be announced at that time.
All graduates participating in the competition, please stay in the resting area of the fighting arena.
There will be staff members to take you to different resting areas.
Before the competition is over, no one is allowed to leave the fighting arena.
At the same time, it is absolutely forbidden for any student to have any direct contact with the members of the knight order. Once discovered, depending on the severity, your graduation qualification may be revoked. "
The unexpectedly obtained rest time was also good news for some students who were seriously injured or physically exhausted in the semi-finals.
Due to Abel's special identity, the five of them were assigned to a relatively spacious resting area.
If they wanted to sleep, they would lie on the floor or sleep on the bench … In this special environment, they could not ask for too much.
…
In the resting area.
Because of the comfort that Han Dong just gave, she was now holding onto Han Dong's arm the whole time and did not want to leave for a moment.
Also, when everyone was discussing the battle situation today.
Knock knock knock …
There was a knock on the door.
"The strict rules of the knight order are not allowed to have contact with students in order to avoid the situation of poaching people in advance … Is there another graduate here?"
When Abel stepped forward to open the door.
He quickly lowered his head. His face was full of shock, but he tried to be as calm as possible and respectfully said: "Mr. Representative."
That's right.
Standing at the door was a person wearing a unique representative attire (a white silk coat with a picture of an arbitrator, coupled with a spacious hood with dark gold edges).
Under the hood was a middle-aged man with a strange picture drawn on his bald head. His eyes were white as if he had cataracts.
"Warren Nicholas, come with me …"
"Okay!"
Han Dong did not hesitate or worry at all.
In today's competition, Han Dong could be said to have performed perfectly and did not expose any ability outside the city … Being summoned by the representative alone might be because of something else.
As Han Dong stepped out of the resting area.
In the blink of an eye, he came to a completely sealed 'interrogation room'.
"Spatial ability?"
"Please sit."
Han Dong and the representative sat on both sides of the iron table in the middle of the interrogation room.
A document was handed to him by the representative.
"The [Parliament] is very interested in your 'thinking ability'. I represent the Parliament to ask for your personal opinion.
Do you have any thoughts of joining the [Parliament]?
This will not affect your normal joining of the knight order. At the same time, you will be a candidate for the Parliament and will receive certain preferential treatment in the process of growth.
As for what candidates need to do, abide by, and contribute to the Holy City, I will have to wait for you to agree and sign the treaty before I can tell you in detail. "
The document handed to Han Dong was: "The Treaty and Management Measures for the Training of Candidates for Parliament".
