In the Great Western City, a pure white horse carriage drove slowly through the streets. There were guards dressed in white clothes and armor in front and behind the carriage. These guards had strong physiques and wore solemn expressions. It was obvious that they were powerful warriors who had been through the battlefield for a long time.
Wherever the horse carriage passed by, the people on the streets would all drop to their knees like waves, their faces filled with respect.
There was no reason for this. It was because the people coming were from the Holy See of Truth, and the person in the horse carriage was an archbishop from the Holy See of Truth, a top notch level 29 expert.
Other than the path of Knights, all members of the Holy See of Truth's clergy would cultivate divine arts, which borrowed the powers of the legendary God of Universal Truth.
An archbishop from the Holy See of Truth was not just a level 29 Conferred Knight. He was also well-versed in many types of divine arts, and his abilities were unfathomable.
If most of the top notch characters in the Empire were said to be at the second tier of level 29, then any archbishop from the Holy See of Truth would be able to be ranked at the first tier of level 29. Without a doubt, this was the strongest influence in the world.
"Sir, we've arrived."
In the horse carriage, a bald old man with a face as tough as a marble sculpture and eyes that were extremely deep walked down slowly. He looked at the small building and said, "Let's go in."
A total of 12 white-armored Warriors followed behind him. They were the second transition jobs from the Holy See of Truth, Radiant Knights. Each of them had three or more types of divine arts, and their abilities far surpassed that of ordinary Conferred Knights of the same level.
The leader of the 12 white-armored Warriors had golden prints on his armor, a blue cape on his back, and a head of golden hair that reached his shoulders. He looked just like a prince from a fairy tale.
He was only half a step behind the archbishop, and it was clear that his status was also not ordinary.
The archbishop said, "How was it, Gardner? How do you feel about heading south?"
The golden-haired Knight said calmly, "Each generation is worse than the one before. If there were no Divine level experts interfering, I would only need 500 second transition Warriors to take down the entire south."
"Haha, aren't you going overboard? This time around, there are still many geniuses in the central region. Especially the next King, George Krieg. His potential is astonishing. Also, Dongfang Ling, who became a national knight at the age of 14, can't be underestimated. "
The golden-haired swordsman closed his eyes and said calmly, "If you don't believe in gods, it'll all be for naught. However, this time around, I'm going to meet Fang Xingjian. The Rebirth Sword Technique has indeed changed the world. But such a genius is actually unwilling to join the Vatican. How sad. "
The archbishop smiled. "Relax, Gardner. You're not working for the Holy Judgment Court."
The two of them walked through the entrance of the building and saw that Governor Devitt and Head of Department James were already standing outside to receive them. Devitt was the only person in the entire Great Western Region who could be a match for an important character like the Archbishop of the Holy See of Truth. It would be rude to send anyone else to receive them.
The two of them shook hands, greeted each other, and walked into the hall of the small building.
On one side were the Archbishop of the Holy See of Truth and his 12 guards, while on the other side were Governor Devitt, Head of Department James, Zhou Xingwen, Ferdinand, and the main character this time around, Fang Xingjian.
The archbishop said, "Then I won't say too much. This time around, the main reason why we're here is for Fang Xingjian and the Rebirth Sword Technique. "Lord Holy Orison has already personally told me about the Rebirth Sword Technique and is full of praises for it. I also think very highly of this sword technique." He then smiled in Devitt's direction, "Lord Governor is really good at teaching. Another unparalleled genius has appeared in the Great Western Region."
Governor Devitt's old face smiled like a chrysanthemum. "It's all Xingjian's talent."
The few of them exchanged a few pleasantries and chatted about all sorts of things. Fang Xingjian only closed his eyes and cultivated his sword arts. The Governor, Zhou Xingwen, Ferdinand, and the others would naturally help him fight for the price of the Rebirth Sword Technique's authorisation in the north.
After all, a portion of the authorisation fee would have to be given to them. They were much more experienced and proactive than Fang Xingjian.
Therefore, he would rather focus on cultivating his sword arts. This was especially so after his mystical prints had reached the seventh level. His brain seemed to be even more agile, and he felt that his thoughts were unprecedentedly fast and clear. There were even all sorts of inspirations in the air gushing into his brain.
Right now, he was practicing the Killing techniques that he had scanned in the library in his brain. To think that he would be able to learn them just by thinking about them casually, and after thinking about them a few more times, he would be able to reach level 10. He would even be able to find ways to improve this sword technique if he continued to derive it.
Fang Xingjian suddenly realized that after familiarizing himself with several hundred sword techniques, his sword arts level had increased tremendously. He had also memorised the thousands and thousands of sets of Killing techniques in the library. Right now, he already had the accumulation to create his own sword techniques.
Just then, someone called out to Fang Xingjian.
Fang Xingjian opened his eyes and looked in the direction of the archbishop of the Holy See of Truth. He saw a warrior who had been standing behind the archbishop walk out. The warrior was dressed in white clothes and armor with golden prints on them. He was also wearing a blue cape.
He looked at Fang Xingjian, who seemed to have just woken up, with a hint of contempt in his eyes.
The archbishop introduced, "This is the Knight of the Rising Sun, Gardner. He is also the new director of the Holy Inquisition Court. He has been protecting my safety along the way."
The Holy Inquisition Court was one of the nine Sacred Divisions of the Holy See of Truth that specialized in investigating the internal affairs of the Church. It was filled with countless terrifying and bloody rumors. It was said that they were a bunch of fanatical believers, true lunatics.
The Knight of the Rising Sun, Gardner, was a level 29 Conferred Knight. He was also proficient in several tens of Universal Truth Divine Arts and was one of the rising geniuses in the Holy See of Truth in recent years. There were even people who thought that he had a chance of attaining the Divine level.
Hearing the archbishop's introduction, everyone's gazes were filled with respect.
However, Gardner merely turned his gaze toward Fang Xingjian and said, "I've already heard of your name when I was in the north. It's said that your sword arts talent is astonishing, and Lord Holy Orison even recommended you to join the Martial Techniques Grading Plan. "The reason why we're here today is to discuss the Martial Techniques Grading Plan with you."
However, Gardner's next words took a turn and he said, "However, although you've created the Rebirth Sword Technique, it doesn't mean that you're qualified to join the Martial Techniques Grading Plan.
"Those who are able to join this plan are either Divine level experts or people who are at the pinnacle of level 29. They are great martial arts masters who have made a name for themselves for many years. In my opinion, you're not suitable to join the Martial Techniques Grading Plan."
The Martial Techniques Grading Plan was a great plan that involved the entire world from the Holy See of Truth. It was a plan that would cost several hundred millions or even several billion. Naturally, it was a juicy piece of meat in the eyes of countless people.
However, Fang Xingjian had rejected the Holy Orison's invitation and did not join the Holy See of Truth.
Now that he was going to take a bite out of this juicy piece of meat, the Knight of the Rising Sun, Gardner, was naturally unhappy. This was especially so since the part that Fang Xingjian was in charge of had originally belonged to the Holy Inquisition Court.
One of the reasons why he had accompanied the archbishop to the south this time around was to get to know the younger generation of the Empire. Another reason was to try and stop Fang Xingjian from joining the Martial Techniques Grading Plan.
