Divine Seal: I am the Demon God Emperor's beloved granddaughter

Chapter 37 After all, I was already so arrogant

"All I can say is that we returned from Knight's Holy Mountain two years ago. I should be considered a Sky Knight, right?"

Bai Xi didn't lower her voice, but used a method similar to telepathic communication, so only Li Xin could hear it clearly.

"what!"

The amount of information was so overwhelming that Li Xin gasped in surprise, then covered her mouth, her voice muffled, her large eyes filled with astonishment.

"You already had mounts two years ago!"

Oh my god!
What kind of monsters are these?!

In fact, those who can go to the Knight's Holy Mountain to choose a mount are geniuses, but they went too early, they were not even twelve years old at that time!

There's really no comparison!

Because she was too surprised, Li Xin didn't hear Bai Xi's next sentence, that she was considered a Sky Knight; otherwise, she would have been even more surprised.

The reason it's considered a calculation is because Bai Xi's mount, Xiao Qing, is still a cub and cannot carry her in the sky.

"I suddenly felt sorry for Zhao Wei; he didn't know what kind of opponent he was facing."

Li Xin shook her head and sighed, but her face was clearly full of joy.

I am happy because of Bai Xi and Long Haochen's excellence.

At this moment, Zhao Wei and Long Haochen had finished exchanging greetings and began their sparring match.

This was a coaching match led by Long Haochen. Instead of defeating Zhao Wei right away, Long Haochen pointed out his weaknesses. The match dragged on for a full fifteen minutes, ending only when Zhao Wei was exhausted.

"You've already become a Grand Knight?"

Zhao Wei stared at Long Haochen in astonishment, his eyes no longer showing any resentment, but only admiration.

Because he realized that there was an insurmountable gap between himself and Long Haochen.

"Correct."

Long Haochen reached out and helped Zhao Wei up.

"And what about her? Is she too?"

Zhao Wei stood up and looked at Bai Xi, who was standing next to Li Xin.

"No."

Hearing Long Haochen's answer, Zhao Weigang breathed a sigh of relief, thinking to himself, "That's more like it. Where do all these geniuses come from, and I've run into them all."

He breathed a sigh of relief too soon, because Long Haochen had given in, and he showed a proud expression, saying with great pride.

"My sister is even better than me; she's the best here."

Zhao Wei: ?
"Can't you just finish your sentence in one go?!"

"terrible."

"terrible."

Zhao Wei said "That's terrifying!" twice, once to Long Haochen and once to Bai Xi, while shaking his head repeatedly.

"I see you're not even twenty yet, you still have one more chance to compete. If you really want to go, you can go next time."

"The competition this year will be fierce."

Bai Xi suggested to Zhao Wei, emphasizing the words "very intense".

This is not nonsense.

According to the novel's established rules, any event the protagonist participates in is destined to be anything but ordinary. With Long Haochen as the male lead, this year's Demon Hunter Team selection competition is bound to be extremely difficult.

"That's right, that's right, I'll just wait for the next one."

Zhao Wei did indeed give up, not only because he was discouraged by Bai Xi and Long Haochen.

The guidance he received from Long Haochen had given him many insights, and he planned to go into seclusion to digest them, striving to reach the rank of Grand Knight as soon as possible. With Long Haochen and Bai Xi setting such high standards this year, it was difficult for him to stand out. However, next year, even at the very least, he would be a Level 4 Grand Knight, and hopefully, he could get a share of the rewards.

“Long Haochen and Bai Xi are siblings who have long since returned from the Holy Mountain of Knights. Among the younger generation of our Haoyue Branch Hall, they are the only two Great Knights. Therefore, for the glory of our Haoyue Branch Hall, they are indispensable in this selection competition.”

Having witnessed Long Haochen's strength, Nalan Shu was finally satisfied. He then began to suppress all dissenting voices, acting in his capacity as the Palace Master.

The selection process for the Demon Hunter Team selection competition has been finalized, with the following three members chosen: Bai Xi, Long Haochen, and Li Xin.

The other temples also arranged for their representatives, but Bai Xi and Long Haochen did not know them.

They are Lin Jialu from the Haoyue Branch of the Magic Temple, and the Chen brothers, Chen Si and Chen Chen, from the Haoyue Branch of the Warrior Temple.

However, the moment Li Xin and Lin Jialu met, they felt like they were destined to clash.

Before heading to the Holy City to participate in the real competition, they must undergo an assessment to qualify for the Demon Hunter Selection Tournament.

That means entering the demon territory, with each person required to kill an average of five demons, and the mission would last for three days.

"Five per person, that's thirty in total, not bad."

Bai Xi did the math and found that the task was not difficult at all.

After all, before she turned 12, the number of demons who died at her hands was already far greater than that. Those demons were all those who actively provoked her, attempting to harm her, only to be killed by Bai Xi in return.

Ever since learning that her maternal grandfather was likely a demon, Bai Xi has lost the habit of provoking demons, for fear of her own family fighting each other.

"Isn't this enough? Xixi, don't be so Versailles-like. Five is already a lot. Every year, many people fail to complete this task."

Li Xin and Bai Xi have a good relationship, so she speaks in a very gentle tone.

But Lin Jialu was different. She and Li Xin had never gotten along, and she was very proud and arrogant. She immediately retorted when she heard Bai Xi's words.

"Judging from your tone, you don't seem to care about this mission. If you're so capable, why don't you complete this mission by yourself?"

She was used to bantering with Li Xin, but after saying those words this time, she regretted it a little.

Because Bai Xi was the youngest among them on this trip, and also a girl. She herself felt that what she had just said was somewhat bullying, but she was proud by nature and couldn't bring herself to apologize.

She just told herself to be more tolerant of Bai Xi, who seemed to be just an immature little sister.

"If enough demons come to us, or if we find a suitable candidate, it's not impossible."

Bai Xi didn't take Lin Jialu's angry words to heart; instead, she considered their feasibility.

Li Xin, on the other hand, is arguing with Lin Jialu again.

"What, did you lose an arm or a leg, or are you unable to take care of yourself? You want my little sister to do your job? How dare you?"

"Li Xin!"

"I'm not deaf, you don't need to speak so loudly."

Seeing that the two were about to start arguing again, the remaining four people skillfully divided the tasks and stopped them.

They continued to quietly wait and watch, hoping the demons would rise up.

But a whole night passed, and no demons came.

"Strange, don't these demons patrol?"

Chen Si asked, puzzled.

While everyone else was puzzled, Bai Xi spoke up.

"No, they have patrolling demons, but they have the ability to become invisible. They just passed by us last night while we were arguing to deliver a message."

"If my feeling is not wrong, the main force he brought is coming soon, and this wave will be enough to complete our mission."

"After all, I was so arrogant last night."

"You said that on purpose!"
