He promised to become a knight, but what the heck is Astartes?

"Thank you for the blade, teacher."

Rorschach sheathed his halberd and respectfully bowed to Taylor as a teacher and student.

Putting everything else aside, just considering the value of this life-source artifact alone, Taylor deserves Rorschach's gift.

"If you can kill more abyssal monsters with the Battle Abyss after you become a knight, that will be the greatest thanks you can give me."

Taylor smiled, then took out his blood-red battle axe from his storage ring, and then twisted his neck.

"A good weapon needs blood to sharpen it. Now let me see how much of the 'Raging Abyss Halberd' you learned yesterday has been digested."

"Attack with your strongest power!"

"Then I'll have to offend you, Mr. Taylor."

Rorschach grinned. After getting such a good weapon, he was itching to test his skills against Taylor.

boom!

As Luo Xia finished speaking, his life magnetic field began to rotate, and a faint yellowish-brown phantom covered Luo Xia's entire body. Then, his legs suddenly exerted force.

boom!

Rorschach shot out like a cannonball, swinging his halberd in mid-air in a full moon shape before slashing down fiercely at Taylor!

The first move of the Mad Abyss Halberd: Abyss Rift!

"Good timing."

Taylor's eyes narrowed upon seeing this. When he sensed the thick life force field around him and the earthen-yellow phantom on Rorschach, he was secretly alarmed.

Good lad, you've actually mastered the Earth Desolate Dragon Breathing Technique to the tenth level so quickly, you're truly a genius.

But if that's all there is to it...

"That's not enough!"

Taylor shouted, without even activating his life magnetic field, and raised his battle axe high, using his superb skills to block Rorschach's attack.

"clang!"

A deafening clang of metal clashing echoed through the training room, and a visible shockwave suddenly emanated from the two individuals, overturning everything inside.

"Good lad, your strength has increased again. What kind of feed did you eat this time?"

Taylor was shocked once again as he felt Rorschach's halberd strike; this kid's power had actually gotten stronger again!

Do geniuses all progress this quickly?

"I ate something good yesterday."

Rorschach exerted force again, pressing down hard with his halberd, but Taylor was not as careless as he was yesterday, even though Rorschach possessed strength far exceeding that of an ordinary knight.

But a great knight is a great knight. If Taylor doesn't hold back, Rorschach might not even be able to withstand a single blow from his opponent.

"Let's go back."

Taylor smiled and pushed his battle axe forward, sending Rorschach flying dozens of meters before regaining his footing.

"Having strength but lacking skill is the middle way."

Taylor commented for a moment, then took a step and leaped forward.

"Kid, come and take this axe blow!"

The crimson battle axe flashed a streak of blood as it slashed down fiercely at Luo Xia, sending an intense sense of crisis through his entire body.

Rorschach tried to dodge, but found himself locked onto by Taylor's life magnetic field!

broken!

Taylor, that old man, is serious!

Chapter 84 War God Realm (Please continue reading, please vote with monthly tickets, thank you meow!!!)

"Cough cough cough, teacher, are you trying to kill someone?"

Luo Xia spat out a mouthful of blood, leaned on his halberd to stand up, and felt as if his internal organs were out of place.

"This is to help you avoid arrogance and impetuosity. Don't think that just because you have great strength you are invincible. You still have a lot to learn."

Taylor, carrying his battle axe, chuckled. He thought to himself, "If I don't use my strength, this kid really thinks he's something!"

"However, your power generation technique is already basically qualified. What's left is to hone it in real combat so that your skills can undergo a transformation."

"The combat intensity in the Night Owl Arena is still too low, but you haven't obtained the Empire's approval and can't enter the Abyss, so let's go, I'll take you to the advanced training room in the War Spire."

Advanced training room?

Luo Xia was taken aback upon hearing this, but then he remembered that as an A-level core member, he had the opportunity to enter the advanced training room three days a month.

"Advanced training room, what makes it advanced?"

Rorschach followed Taylor with his halberd in hand, and the two rode the steam elevator all the way up to the eighty-eighth floor, the top floor of the War Spire.

As Taylor pulled open the elevator doors, an enormous, blood-red space appeared before Rorschach's eyes.

"Welcome to the War God Realm."

Taylor smiled and stepped out of the steam elevator first, then vanished right before Rorschach's eyes.

"War God Realm, am I about to face Khorne?"

Thinking this, Luo Xia took a step forward and entered the crimson space. Instantly, the scenery before him changed, and he found himself on a battlefield.

On one side is the human army, and on the other side is...

An endless tide of demons!

"In the thirty-seventh year of the Holy Calendar, humanity sounded the horn of counterattack against the demons that had invaded various parts of the continent, and what you are witnessing is the most tragic battle of the Heavenly Abyss."

Taylor stood in mid-air, looking at the horrific scene below, and calmly explained to Rorschach:

"The eighty-eighth floor of the eighty-eighth war spire in the northern border is a place that connects to the War God Realm. In order to cultivate true war knights, this place has been transformed into a large battlefield that has been experienced by countless holy empires."

"And your cultivation is based on the killing data on these battlefields. The more killing data you have, the stronger the blessing of the God of War you can receive."

What the hell!

This guy's even playing a war simulator now, huh?!

Luo Xia was also taken aback when he heard this. So the Divine Realm could be used in this way?

"See that list in the sky? That's a ranking of all those who have used the War God Domain. The more kills you have on the battlefield, the higher your ranking will be!"

"If you can break into the top 88, you will be granted special admission to War God University, truly qualifying you to become a War Knight, and even having a slight chance to become a War God."

Taylor looked at the list, her eyes filled with envy and longing.

If the War Knight Academy is a place to train knights, then the War God University is a place to truly train the strong.

Being a formal knight or a grand knight is merely the first stage of becoming a transcendent professional knight. To become a true powerhouse who can command respect within the empire, one must pass the examinations to enter one of the thirteen universities of the Holy Empire!

Because that is the cradle that breeds true strongmen.

"A sacred test".

Rorschach recalled his predecessor's goal, or perhaps the goal of all the extraordinary beings in the Holy Empire.

Pass the Empire's sacred test and enter one of the thirteen universities founded by the Empire and the Church!

If we say that the strong individuals who emerge from the primary academies of the major churches and empires are minor nobles who have transcended social classes...

Therefore, the strong individuals who emerge from the thirteen universities of the Empire are the true Celestial Dragons!

"It seems that the Dean came from the War God University. I wonder how strong he is now."

Looking at the list in the sky, Luo Xia was filled with ambition and high aspirations.

It's not like everyone who hasn't been admitted to university is acting like they've never been!

In his previous life, Luo Xia was a college graduate, an academic qualification that would crush everyone in this world.

Moreover, even for the sake of the great Emperor's Hook, Rorschach still had to enter this university founded by Khorne and experience its flavor!

However, according to the Wise System's judgment, the War Academy trains Astartes, so does that mean the War God University trains Primarchs?

Khorne was truly ambitious.

"Hiss, but if you calculate it that way..."

"Then the War Academy is like a high school, and the War God University is a university. So, those who don't get into the War God University and join the Knights are like college students?"

Rorschach discovered the key point: Cliff and Taylor were both college students! No wonder Taylor was so envious.

After all, if he could get into War God University, wouldn't that be equivalent to transferring from a junior college to a university?

As is well known, college students and undergraduate students are two different species.

"Alright, begin your cultivation. I hope your death won't be too gruesome."

After a moment of reflection, Taylor waved his hand, and then Rorschach felt his body become much heavier.

Before he could even recover, a group of Abyss Black Orcs charged toward Rorschach!

"Boy, fight! Battle! Please me! Only slaughter and battle are the most pleasurable things in the world!"

"Good lad, as expected of my most beloved son, he actually charged straight into Khorne's divine court!"

"Since that's the case, then let these Khorne be judged! My great Emperor's Fist, let Khorne witness your supreme power!"

[Mission Description: Judge the Great Demon Khorne and return him to the embrace of the Golden Throne.]
