Rota followed Fang Xingjian into the second palace in the Killing Techniques Palace. This place was many times bigger than the palace in the first stage. Or rather, it could no longer be called a palace.
A winding canyon that was over 200 meters deep, several hundred meters long, over 100 meters wide, and over ten meters narrow appeared before Fang Xingjian and Rota.
To think that this was a canyon built in the Killing Techniques Palace? The entire canyon looked as if someone had descended from the skies and slashed it open with a sword. The bottom of the canyon was filled with densely-packed plants, and there were even animals resting in them.
To think that a huge canyon was surrounded by many pavilions and terraces. What a majestic sight it was! Even though Fang Xingjian was used to seeing great buildings on Earth, he could not help but be slightly astonished at this scene.
Rota was extremely astonished. She looked at the stone staircase that led deep into the canyon and said, "The second palace is in this canyon? Or could it be that the entire canyon is the second palace? Did this canyon exist from the start? Or was it created by someone? "
After witnessing the maze that the Melancholic Monarch had created, she was no longer sure if this canyon had been formed naturally.
Fang Xingjian shook his head. He could only see the surrounding ten meters with his Heaven's Perception, but he was unable to see the entire canyon. Rota turned her head, looked at Fang Xingjian's face, and suddenly said, "Hmm? Your eyes … "
Right now, Fang Xingjian's eyes were open. Other than his pupils being even deeper and darker, there was no difference between him and an ordinary person. He looked just like an ordinary person.
Fang Xingjian said calmly, "In the sparring earlier, my Thunderbolt Sword Technique leveled up, allowing my comprehension of ether particles to increase once again. My ether synchronization rate has reached 15%, and I can now convert visual information. I feel that I'm more used to opening my eyes."
This meant that right now, Fang Xingjian felt like an ordinary person opening their eyes. It was just that he did not receive information from his eyes but from his Heaven's Perception. Moreover, it was only within a ten-meter radius around him.
Rota nodded. In her heart, she was still digesting the news that Fang Xingjian's synchronization rate had reached 15%. This speed of improvement was truly shocking.
Right now, she had yet to attain Heaven's Perception, while Fang Xingjian had continuously completed his job transitions and even attained breakthroughs, raising his synchronization rate to 15%. This speed was too fast.
Subconsciously, Rota fell behind Fang Xingjian. Looking at Fang Xingjian's back, she suddenly felt disheartened.
"Can I really … catch up to him?"
However, this feeling only lasted for a short while. Rota puffed out her chest, her eyes filled with determination. She looked at Fang Xingjian with eyes full of fighting spirit.
"Why not? If Fang Xingjian can do it, why can't I? "
"Even if I can't do everything, the higher his improvement, the more difficulties he'll encounter. His speed will definitely slow down. As long as I give it my all, I'll definitely have a chance to catch up to him."
Young people, especially those who had become Conferred Knights, would all have the confidence to change the world. At this point in time, almost all of them would think that they were the best.
Although Rota had seen how powerful Fang Xingjian was, she did not lose her fighting spirit because of this setback. Instead, she made up her mind that she would definitely work hard and catch up to him.
"I'll increase my training when I go back today. Before the end of this month, I must attain Heaven's Perception."
Naturally, Fang Xingjian could not sense Rota's thoughts. He walked along the canyon, and the deeper he went, the steeper the surrounding cliffs became. The stone staircase they were walking on seemed to be carved into the walls of the cliffs, and a few inches below their feet was a deep canyon suspended in the air. It was as if they would fall down with just a single wrong step.
The canyon was extremely winding, and the stone staircase kept on winding up and down, allowing them to walk a little further.
However, the two of them were Conferred Knights and Knights respectively, and their physical attributes far surpassed that of ordinary people. To ordinary people, this would be a hopeless situation, but to them, it was just a slightly unique scenery. After walking for a few hundred meters and going through countless twists and turns, a huge platform appeared before the two of them.
The entire platform protruded out from the cliffs. Or rather, it could not be said to be a platform. It was because the platform was in the shape of a longsword. It was as if a huge sword had pierced out from the cliffs.
This was a cliff that was over a hundred meters deep from the bottom of the canyon. There were many shadows under their feet, and it was almost impossible to see what was inside clearly.
To be able to build such a giant sword platform in the middle of the cliff, it could be said to be the work of the gods.
Rota's eyes were once again filled with astonishment. There was no need for sword arts, powers, or battles. Just this platform in the Killing Techniques Palace was enough to display the unfathomable power of the Regional Academy.
Right now, there was only Fatso lying on the platform, snoring thunderously. He was sleeping.
However, there was a row of words carved in front of him: 'The secret manual is carved on the platform. Don't disturb my sleep. If you want to challenge someone, wait for another teacher.'
Rota looked at Fatso, who was sleeping on the platform, and could not help but smile. 'I thought that Conferred Knights are all cultivating with all their might, wishing that they could split every second into two. To think that there are Conferred Knights who slack off!'
Fang Xingjian frowned and said, "Maybe it's some martial technique that they cultivate in their sleep?"
He shook his head. He was not sure about this, but this did not stop him from learning the sword technique carved on the ground. This was a sword technique known as the Mountain Shifting Sword.
This was a powerful sword technique that could control the geomagnetism, change the direction of the earth's veins, and make use of the power of the land's tectonic plates to uproot mountains and seas, change the terrain, and even form earthquakes and tsunamis.
Just as Fang Xingjian was reading the Mountain Shifting Sword, the two students from the first stage had already rushed over. They ran up to Fatso and said, "Brother Ronan, Brother Ronan, wake up! Brother Duolun has been defeated!"
They repeated this many times before Fatso, who was like a mountain of flesh, opened his eyes impatiently. A fierce gleam flashed through his small eyes as he scolded fiercely, "So what if he's defeated? With his lousy sword arts, there's nothing strange about him losing."
"But the other party only learned it for an hour. After learning it for an hour, he reached level 10 of the Thunderbolt Sword Technique and defeated Brother Duolun."
Fatso, who had been addressed as Ronan, laughed out loud, his eyes filled with disdain and mockery. "What nonsense are you spouting? Reaching level 10 of the Thunderbolt Sword Technique in an hour … Do you think that learning sword arts is as easy as eating and drinking?"
How could Ronan possibly believe such a thing? He had never even heard of someone who could reach level 10 of the Thunderbolt Sword Technique in ten hours, let alone someone who could reach level 10 of the Thunderbolt Sword Technique in an hour. It was impossible for him to believe such a thing.
It was true. Any rational Knight or Conferred Knight in Miracle World would not believe it if they had not witnessed this scene for themselves.
It was because such a thing had never happened in their history.
However, he still woke up eventually. Therefore, he threw a sideways glance at Fang Xingjian and asked, "You're the one who defeated Duolun?" He took a few looks at Fang Xingjian and thought to himself, 'To think that Duolun was unable to fend off such a young lad? This guy is really regressing. '
