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

Chapter 9 A Born Knight, Slapping the Young Knight in the Face
Long Haochen's challenge to Li Xin was a success; he not only lasted for a quarter of an hour but also defeated Li Xin, who was holding back.

This greatly surprised the onlookers, because before the competition, everyone thought that Long Haochen would have a hard time lasting for fifteen minutes.

After Long Haochen's story ends, it's Bai Xi's turn.

"XiXi, keep it up!"

Long Haochen handed the sword in his hand to Bai Xi.

Knights usually carry two heavy swords, but Bai Xi only likes to use one and doesn't like carrying a heavy sword, so she keeps her sword in the storage ring given to her by the man in white.

However, if the situation is not critical, Long Haochen will give his sword to Bai Xi directly.

"You come."

Nalan Shu selected a male knight from the crowd who was slightly stronger than Li Xin and called him out.

"Just like Li Xin and the others did, let Bai Xi challenge you. Remember, be careful not to go too far."

"Huh? Palace Master, are you kidding me?"

The male knight who was summoned looked surprised, pointed to himself, and then pointed to Bai Xi.

His tone and expression carried a sense of contempt and disdain; he looked down on Bai Xi and didn't even want to give her a proper look.

"This is just a little girl. I don't even know if she can withstand a punch from me, let alone a sword fight. I'm afraid she'll be so scared that she'll start crying the moment I draw my sword."

After saying that loudly, he muttered to himself.

"Are you kidding me? Isn't one Li Xin enough? Why does another woman want to be a knight? Do you think they can just become knights whenever they want? I'm speechless."

"Can't these women just stay at home and find a good man to marry when the time comes? Why do they have to squeeze into this group of men? Who knows what they're after..."

His muttering was very soft and indistinct, but most people could tell from his impatient expression that he wasn't saying anything nice.

Bai Xi, however, heard it all clearly.

"I'll let you compete, so compete. Are you the Palace Master or am I?"

Nalan Shu sternly reprimanded him, and the young male knight reluctantly walked to the opposite side of Bai Xi.

He was still complaining, "Is she just playing house? What kind of knight only uses one sword, and even uses someone else's sword? It's such a waste of time to duel with her..."

That sounded rather harsh, and complaining in a low voice wasn't very pleasant either. Either say it out loud, or keep it to yourself.

"Actually, you can just use 'you,' I heard you very clearly."

Bai Xi felt uncomfortable, so she wanted to make the young knight uncomfortable as well.

“I also have two swords, but I won’t use them for your own good. I’m afraid your body, which looks strong on the outside but is weak on the inside, won’t be able to withstand my two swords.”

Upon hearing this, the young knight was stunned for a moment, his face turning red.

Then, as if enraged, his voice rose several decibels above his previous tone.

"Am I wrong? Today I'll show you that's not how you're supposed to be a knight. You women are not born to be knights!"

As he spoke, he drew his fine double sword and slashed at Bai Xi.

He was fast, but Bai Xi was more agile and, because of her smaller stature, more flexible. The young knight's two consecutive sword strikes failed to get close to Bai Xi.

I don't like what you said.

"I also dislike your arrogance."

"So, I've decided not to hold back against you."

Bai Xi's sword strikes were swift and ruthless, her movements agile and nimble, which aroused Nalan Shu's suspicion.

"No, she looks more like an assassin. What did Lord Xingyu do? How could he bring an assassin genius to be a knight? Her talent is completely mismatched. Can this work?"

"This child is only ten years old. It's not too late for him to change careers. Should I mention it to him?"

As the head of the Haoyue branch hall, Nalan Shu had naturally come into contact with many assassins. Seeing Bai Xi make a move now, he sensed the presence of an assassin.

This led to the above thoughts, and even the idea of ​​having Bai Xi change course and become an assassin, since assassins also belong to their Holy Temple Alliance, right?

But the next moment, Nalan Shu didn't have time to think about that anymore.

Because the young knight, who was unable to defeat Bai Xi and was instead held back by her, actually unleashed the strongest attack of a third-tier knight, and he did so with all his might.

"asshole!"

Nalan Shu cursed loudly and tried to stop him.

But then, a golden-red light flashed on Bai Xi's sword, and an unusual power spread out from it.

This……

Nalan Shu was stunned.

The next moment, a golden-red flame flew out of Bai Xi's sword and headed towards the young knight's mouth.

This time, Nalan Shu was the one who stepped in to save the young knight.

Even after saving the young knight, Nalan Shu was still in a daze.

Is it too late for him to take back his idea?

Although he could see that Bai Xi's spiritual power had a strong fire attribute, he might be suitable to be a magician.

but--

She's clearly more suited to the Knights!
It's better to recruit talent from the Knights' Temple.

If he hadn't stopped that sword strike, the young knight would have definitely lost miserably.

"You won, you passed the test."

Nalan Shu first announced the results of the competition, and then looked at Bai Xi with a look of eagerness and excitement.

"What was the name of that move you just used? Did Lord Xingyu teach you that too? What tier of knight skill was that?"

He had never seen that move before, so he assumed it was something Long Xingyu had recently created himself.

"This move is called 'Striking the Wutong Tree.' There is no threshold for its use; the stronger the spiritual power, the greater its power."

Bai Xi responded selectively.

After striking the parasol tree, there is another move called Phoenix Flight, but that one makes a much bigger commotion.

"Good good!"

Nalan Shu excitedly shouted "Good!" three times, giving Bai Xi an official affirmation.

"Who said you're not suited to be a knight! You're a born knight! If anyone says you're not suited to be a knight again, I'll fight them!"

"The teacher said the same thing. He also said that Xixi is a born knight and that his decisions are always right."

Bai Xi was affirmed, and Long Haochen was also very happy. He cleverly brought up Long Xingyu's words. He could also see that Nalan Shu respected Long Xingyu very much.

Upon hearing this, Nalan Shu's smile widened even more.

"Indeed, she's only a ten-year-old aspiring knight, yet she can defeat a knight in his twenties. How can that not be considered exceptional talent!"

Nalan Shu is standing up for Bai Xi and also slapping the faces of those knights who look down on Bai Xi.

Those male knights who had previously looked down on Bai Xi now lowered their heads in shame.

Strength is the best way to prove someone wrong.

The male knights who just fought Bai Xi serve as a good reference point. Many of them had to admit that they themselves might not have been able to defeat Bai Xi.
