Throne of Gods: The mighty power of the heavens, the holy dragon descends upon the world!

Chapter 5: He stormed the camp alone!
"Haochen, this is your elder brother Su Zhe, who is also my apprentice."

Long Xingyu led Long Haochen to the Haoyue Branch Hall and introduced him to him.

Since the misunderstanding was cleared up, Long Xingyu has become much more energetic, and Su Zhe could sense that his master's cultivation seemed to have improved again.

"Brother Su," Long Haochen greeted him politely.

Su Zhe smiled and patted Long Haochen's head.

It must be said that although Su Zhe's appearance was extremely handsome, comparable to that of a novel reader in his previous life, Long Haochen was actually just as good-looking as him.

However, Su Zhe's appearance is more rugged, while Long Haochen's is more gentle.

"From now on, you will study with me at the Haoyue Branch Hall," Long Xingyu said.

Long Haochen nodded firmly, then suddenly turned to look at Su Zhe.

"Brother Su, are you a very powerful knight like my father?"

Long Xingyu was taken aback. "How do you know I'm a very powerful knight?"

"Because Dad is the best!" Long Haochen shouted.

Long Xingyu's heart skipped a beat, and for a moment he didn't know how to respond.

Seeing this, Su Zhe smiled knowingly. After Long Xingyu calmed down, he stepped forward and said, "Master, I should go and take the Demon Hunter Team qualification exam."

Long Xingyu snapped out of his daze and smiled, "Okay, go ahead, this test won't be difficult for you."

Perhaps the Temple Alliance didn't expect that someone would break through to the sixth rank before the age of twenty-five, so the assessment standard only went up to the fifth rank. All that was needed was to kill a fifth-rank demon, which was very easy for Su Zhe.

The following day, Su Zhe set off unprepared. There was no farewell ceremony. Su Zhe was the only one from Haoyue City who had a chance of making it to the finals of the Demon Hunter Team selection.

As for the traditional equipment-giving ceremony, there's no need for that. With Long Xingyu around, Nalan Shu would feel embarrassed to give away his few magical equipment pieces.

Su Zhe rode the steed he had rented from Haoyue City, heading towards the demon territory.

In the shadows, two figures silently followed Su Zhe a hundred meters away.

The examiner from the Knights' Temple—an eighth-tier Adamantite-based Knight—looked at Long Xingyu with a speechless expression.

"I originally thought that it was already a waste of the temple's talents to send me to protect an examinee, but I didn't expect you to be here as well."

Li Changshan looked helpless. What was the deal with that little guy in front of him? Was he the illegitimate son of that elder of the Holy Temple? Why did they have to send him and Long Xingyu to protect him?

Needless to say, Long Xingyu, as a Knight of the Adamantite Foundation, could even fight against some of the lowest-ranking demon gods in a short time, yet he came to protect a demon hunter team's examinee.

Long Xingyu smiled but did not reply. "The area ahead is the Demon Realm. If we encounter danger, I cannot act rashly."

Li Changshan perked up and said, "Understood."

On the other side, Su Zhe rolled off his horse and took out a set of spirit-demon level equipment from his storage space.

A full set of knight's armor, a shield, and a longsword.

In fact, with Long Xingyu's abilities, he could easily obtain not only spirit-level equipment but also legendary equipment. He only refrained from using high-quality equipment to train Su Zhe.

Su Zhe left the horse where it was. Ahead lay the demon territory, which was very dangerous. One wrong move and the horse would perish.

After traveling alone for a while, Su Zhe came across a demon territory.

Dozens of dual-wielding demons roamed the camp. These cannon fodder were not qualified to live in tents. There were only two tents in the camp, which were presumably the residences of some high-ranking demons.

Besides the dual-wielding demon, Su Zhe also spotted a Luke clan stalker.

After a quick assessment of the enemy's and our own combat strength, Su Zhe swiftly prepared for the battle opportunity—to launch a fierce attack!
A bunch of second-tier cannon fodder plus a few high-tier demons, should I avoid their sharp edge? Looking at Su Zhe charging straight out, Li Changshan was stunned, "Isn't it too reckless to just charge like that?"

Long Xingyu shrugged. Charging into battle without strength is called recklessness; with strength, it's called simple and convenient.

Su Zhe moved at top speed, and a pair of golden spirit wings spread out behind him, covering a distance of fifteen meters. The golden feathers on them were so lifelike that Li Changshan immediately grabbed them.

"Sixth rank? And how come the spirit wings are so big!" Li Changshan exclaimed in surprise.

Long Xingyu remained noncommittal. Su Zhe's innate spiritual power was so high, so what if his spiritual wings were a little bigger?

Su Zhe continued charging forward. He had already sensed that the few high-level demons inside the tent were no more than fifth-tier, and could be killed in one move.

The bright, sun-like golden light instantly attracted the attention of the demon camp, and hundreds of jet-black dual-wielding demons charged angrily.

Do you think you can take on all of us by yourself?
The ideal is very full, but the reality is very skinny. In just one glance, the long sword in Su Zhe's hand had already shattered the bodies of seven or eight dual-sword demons.

"Holy Sword!"

With another swing of the sword, pure light elements burst forth, and the nearly ten-meter-long blade swept across, cleaving all the hundred dual-blade demons around him in two.

As a fifth-tier skill for knights, the Holy Sword, unleashed by a sixth-tier Radiant Knight, was far beyond the reach of a group of demon cannon fodder; it was a matter of instant death upon contact.

The aura of the holy sword quickly drew out the high-ranking demons from inside the tent.

Seeing the opponent's lineup, Su Zhe smiled.

"I thought there would be some unexpected situation like in a novel, but it turns out to be two emerald green twin-bladed demons."

As they spoke, the Emerald Twin Blade Demon charged forward with the remaining Luke Clan rogues.

"Holy Sword!"

With a flick of his spirit wings, Su Zhe was already dozens of meters away. At this moment, the longsword in his hand was completely imbued with light elements.

Unlike the previous sword that spread out into a ten-meter-long blade, this holy sword is more solid and has a stronger killing power against single enemies!
With a single sword strike, a demon wielding two emerald swords was decapitated.

On the other side, a cold light flashed, and the attack of the second emerald green twin-bladed demon had arrived.

Su Zhe remained expressionless, and the shield he had been holding in his left hand suddenly thrust forward, a layer of orange-red light shining brightly.

"Godly block!"

It is considered one of the essential skills for knights to learn, and it is impossible to break through without the user having more than three times the spiritual power.

"clang!"

A sound like metal clashing rang out, not only blocking the attack, but Su Zhe also felt some of the spiritual power from the Green Twin Blade Demon's attack flow into his body.

Looking at the emerald-green twin-bladed demon, which was frozen in place because it couldn't break through the defenses, Su Zhe grinned maliciously, swept his longsword across, and chopped off its head.

With the death of the Emerald Twin Blade Demon, the remaining Luke Clan stalkers were simply left lying on the roadside, easily killed by Su Zhe.

Li Changshan appeared at the right time, saying, "The assessment is over. Congratulations, you passed the assessment."

At this moment, Li Changshan's eyes were filled with shock. How old was Su Zhe? His face still had a bit of childishness. He was probably no more than twenty years old. He never expected that Su Zhe was already a sixth-tier Radiant Knight.

More importantly, Li Changshan had not yet seen Su Zhe's mount, and he did not believe that such a talented knight would not have a good mount.

After a brief exchange, Su Zhe collected the corpses of the two emerald-green twin-blade demons and returned to Haoyue City.
