"If that's the case, then it's quite a good target!" Dark Star stuck out his tongue and licked his lips.

"However, his strength has already reached the Silver level, which is not weak. Be extremely careful when attacking him!" the person next to him warned again.

"You don't need to worry about that! I don't need to fight him directly at all. I can easily take him down!" Di Anxing waved his hand and tiptoed to the window of the small stone house.

He has the ability to release poison gas. All he needs to do is open a crack in the window, carefully let the gas in, and everything will be fine.

However, just as Di Anxing carefully opened the window, he triggered the simple alarm device that Wu Xin had placed in the house.

A ceramic pot placed on the edge of the table was knocked to the ground by a thin thread attached to the window.

click!

The earthenware pot shattered instantly, and the piercing sound immediately jolted Wuxin awake from his sleep.

Who is it—?

He was on guard and jumped out of bed instantly, shouting a warning.

The alarm was triggered in the middle of the night, and given the recent assassinations of Saint Seiya characters, he was pretty sure that the enemy had arrived.

"It happened!"

At the same time they heard the sound of the earthenware pot breaking, the two people outside were startled and fled in panic, no longer caring about dealing with Wuxin.

They knew very well that this was the Sanctuary, the territory of the Saints. It would be fine to assassinate a few at night, but if their tracks were exposed and they were surrounded, they would have no chance of escape.

Not only them, but even the nearby Saint Seiya were alarmed.

In particular, El Cid and his group, who were investigating, had been lying in wait in the shadows. Upon hearing the commotion, they immediately rushed out and instantly noticed the Dark Star.

The other party was rushing towards the sea, clearly preparing to hide underwater.

"No wonder, no wonder, we couldn't find any trace of him during the day. He was hiding in the sea!" El Cid suddenly realized.

Humans are terrestrial animals, and everyone is more accustomed to staying on land. Therefore, they are also influenced by inertia and fix the scope of the search on land.

If it were a Marine Warrior, they might have searched the beach, but their opponent was a Specter Warrior, and they never considered that the opponent might be hiding in the sea.

At this moment, Wuxin also chased after them out of the hut and immediately located the fleeing Di Anxing.

The unique aura of death emanating from the other party was too obvious, especially in the eyes of a Saint who also wielded the power of death. It was like a candlelight in the dark, impossible to ignore even if one wanted to.

However, compared to the Gold Saints, his speed is still too slow.

Before Di Anxing could even reach the seaside, a golden streak of light streaked across the night sky, carrying a terrifying, sharp aura that seemed capable of cleaving the heavens, and descended from the sky, intercepting its opponent first.

"Capricorn El Cid!!!"

Wu Xin immediately recognized the golden streak of light.

In the entire Holy Land, only that man possesses such a terrifying microcosm that seems capable of cutting through everything.

"Sin deserves to be punished!"

Immediately afterwards, a cold snort was heard from ahead, followed by a golden light shooting into the sky.

Wu Xin felt as if he had seen a golden sword cleaving through the sky, its invincible will piercing through the galaxy.

When he arrived at the beach, Di Anxing was lying on the ground, broken in two, with an expression of extreme horror on his face, as if he had seen something terrifying before he died.

Not far from the corpse, Capricorn El Cid stood quietly. A sea breeze blew from behind him, but it couldn't stir his cloak at all, as if it had been split in two by an invisible sword aura.

"Was it you who issued the warning just now?" He glanced at Wuxin and asked casually.

“Yes, Lord El Cid!” Wu Xin did not deny it.

"well-done!"

El Cid nodded, saying without a trace of emotion, "I will help you speak to His Holiness the Pope on your behalf!"

"No need, sir! Eradicating evil is our duty!" Wu Xin quickly replied.

"Very good, excellent!"

El Cid nodded again, growing more and more appreciative of the young man before him.

Chapter 37 Cancer Sparring Partner (Part 1)

"That's right!"

As if remembering something, Wuxin looked at the corpse on the ground and asked, "Did you only capture this one Specter, sir?"

"When I was startled awake earlier, I vaguely sensed that there were two people!"

"two?"

El Cid was taken aback and immediately ordered his men to continue the search.

Unfortunately, they were too late and found nothing.

Elshid asked Wuxin again, "Are you sure there were two people who attacked you?"

It's no wonder he had his doubts. He arrived at the scene almost immediately, but even he only found one Dark Star, not a second one.

"Well... I can't be completely sure!"

Wu Xin gave a wry smile and said, "They were very alert. As soon as they triggered the warning devices I had set up and realized they had woken me up, they chose to escape."

"At that time, I had just been awakened and my consciousness was inevitably a little blurry. I could only vaguely sense two small universes outside."

"If you insist on asking me if I'm sure, then I can only say I'm not sure!"

He spread his hands with a hint of helplessness.

Understanding Wu Xin's difficulties, El Cid didn't make things difficult for him and immediately waved his hand, saying, "Thank you for your help. Go back and get some rest!"

"We will continue to investigate what happened here!"

"However, since you suspect there are still enemies lurking, then continue to be vigilant and do not be negligent!"

"Yes, my lord!"

Wu Xin then bid farewell and left, returning to his own little house.

Unfortunately, after all that commotion on the Dark Star, he couldn't fall asleep anytime soon and could only lie on the stone bed, staring blankly at the dark ceiling.

After an unknown amount of time, Wuxin finally drifted off to sleep.

The next day, just as dawn broke, Cancer Manigoldo came knocking on his door.

"I heard you were assassinated by Specters last night. Were you alright?" he asked Wuxin with concern.

In fact, he had wanted to come and check last night, but considering that it was too late at night, he waited until this morning.

"fine!"

Wu Xin spread his arms wide and laughed, "Those two guys woke me up before they even had a chance to make a real move, and then they ran away in a panic."

"That's good!"

Manigold breathed a sigh of relief and immediately changed the subject, saying, "How are your preparations going? The battle for the Saint Cloths is about to begin!"

"There shouldn't be any major problems!" Wu Xin said confidently.

During these days, he not only trained, but also inquired about the other Saint Seiya candidates.

The Sanctuary currently has thirty-six Saint Seiya candidates, thirty of whom are at the Bronze level and only six at the Silver level.

This also means that his only opponents are those six people.

The six silver-level candidates were also just at the silver level, with their strength around 100,000 times the speed of sound.

Faced with such a competitor, he has a high chance of winning in the end.

"Don't let your guard down!"

Manigold was unusually serious as he said, "Until the very end, no one knows what cards your opponents are hiding."

"You never know, one moment of carelessness and someone could turn the tables!"

"Yes, I understand, senior brother!" Wuxin nodded.

Manigold stretched and said casually, "Since we've got nothing else to do, how about I be your sparring partner today?"

As he spoke, he turned his head and revealed a mischievous smile.

"Is... this really possible?" Wu Xin was stunned for a moment, then asked again to confirm.

As a Gold Saint, Manigoldo naturally possesses a wealth of combat experience, and sparring with such a partner would greatly benefit his growth.

Especially since they both come from the same lineage, fighting against Manigoldo will allow Wuxin to deepen his understanding of his own techniques.

"Of course! Let's go!"

Manigold beckoned and immediately swaggered toward the training area.

Before long, the two arrived at the training area of ​​the Holy Land.

This place is far from the core area of ​​the Holy Land, located on the very periphery, so there is no risk of damaging the Holy Land, and everyone can do whatever they want here.

All around were piles of rubble, and the ground was uneven and pitted, making it almost impossible to find a flat spot to step on.

Not only Wuxin and the other two, but also more diligent apprentice Saints had arrived at the training area and started practicing early, with explosions and booming sounds coming from all around from time to time.

It was a rare sight to see Manigoldo here, and many apprentice Saints immediately came to greet him.

Manigoldo, of course, proudly accepted everything without the slightest bit of politeness.

Some apprentice Saints even dared to ask Manigoldo for guidance on how to awaken their Sixth Sense.

Although they all know the general approach, everyone's understanding is somewhat different, so it's never a bad thing to listen to others.

Manigoldo didn't hold back and immediately sat on a huge rock to explain to everyone.

He spoke to the crowd for nearly an hour before finally becoming impatient and dismissing them.

"call--"

"Finally, we've gotten rid of these guys!" Manigold breathed a sigh of relief.

"What, you don't like explaining cultivation problems to everyone?" Wuxin teased with a smile.

"I'm not that Hasgard guy!"

Manigold waved his hand, grabbed the water bottle and took a big gulp, then continued, "It's okay once in a while, but if it were like this every day, I really couldn't stand it!"
