Throne Of Seal [Trans] - Updated on March 13, 2025
The battle with the No. 1 Knight-level Demon Hunt Squad before departure wasn’t really about that impossible-to-win wager. It was not only to test the abilities of everyone, but also to give them a preliminary understanding of each other after everyone displayed their strength as much as possible under the pressure he brought.
Chen Ying’er, a somewhat careless girl, immediately said triumphantly, “Besides Cai’er, I should be the most powerful, right? I summoned a powerful level eight magic beast to help! We really have a chance to win.”
Sima Xian chuckled and said, “Sister Ying’er, if you had to do that again, could you still summon a level eight magic beast?”
Chen Ying’er’s face immediately fell, and she muttered, “There’s always a chance, right?”
Gao Yingjie turned his gaze to Long Haochen and said, “Haochen, you’re the captain, why don’t you tell us what you think.”
Long Haochen nodded and said, “Let’s start with the advantages. Our advantages are quite obvious, mainly reflected in the fact that almost everyone has the potential to unleash attacks that exceed their own strength. There’s my Light Rain Hibiscus Thrust, Wang Yuanyuan’s Titan God Shield, Sima Xian’s Holy Light Hammer combined with berserk, and Ying’er’s Gate of Life summon. As for Cai’er, her attacks are special. Han Yu and Lin Xin are more support-oriented, but the roles they play in battle are equally important.”
He had been carefully observing everyone’s abilities just now, and now he spoke as if it came naturally, with clear logic.
“Having these abilities that surpass our own level makes it easy for us to launch attacks that exceed the enemy’s expectations when facing them. As long as the overall strength of the team can be unleashed, I believe we will definitely be the strongest among this year’s newly promoted Demon Hunt Squads.”
Hearing him say this, everyone couldn’t help but nod. After the battle just now, the most dazzling performer was undoubtedly Cai’er, but Long Haochen, as the core of the team, his abilities could not be ignored either. The Holy Attraction Spiritual Furnace and his own defense played a vital role. If it weren’t for him holding back Gao Yingjie, even if Gao Yingjie hadn’t gone all out, it would have been difficult for everyone to have the opportunity to display their strongest skills. Long Haochen’s final blow also impressed everyone deeply. The powerful penetrating attack power of the Light Rain Hibiscus Sword could even injure the Mithril Base Battle Armor, which showed how strong its attack power was. Therefore, everyone was becoming more and more convinced of Long Haochen as the captain. After all, strength is the top priority. Even Wang Yuanyuan, who was originally somewhat unconvinced, had more admiration for Long Haochen in her heart after seeing the great effect of the Light Rain Hibiscus Sword and the Holy Attraction Spiritual Furnace. After all, although everyone was not entirely clear about Long Haochen’s age, they could see that the youngest in the team were him, Cai’er, and Chen Ying’er. And he and Cai’er had reached the fifth rank at such a young age, so their future prospects were conceivable.
Gao Yingjie nodded and said, “Let’s talk about the disadvantages.”
Long Haochen said, “The disadvantages are obvious. First of all, we are not familiar with each other. We don’t know the release time of each other’s skills, the power of the skills, the effects, and the combat methods. In this case, it is difficult for our actions to be consistent, so we cannot fully exert our abilities. Tacit understanding needs to be strengthened through continuous practice and combat. We will definitely pay attention to this aspect in the future. The second disadvantage is uncertainty. This point is mainly on Ying’er’s side. Ying’er’s Gate of Life is a powerful summoning magic, but she can’t be sure what she will summon. Therefore, in battle, it is difficult for me to calculate her ability. And once she summons a powerful magic beast, if the cooperation is not in place, it will have the opposite effect. For example, just now, the Evil Eye Lord’s attack affected Haoyue’s magic.”
Chen Ying’er stuck out her tongue to the side, “If the summoned magic beast is too strong, I can’t completely control it.”
Gao Yingjie frowned slightly and said, “Chen Ying’er, I know that you must have some secrets to be able to summon the Gate of Life. This is your own secret, and I’m not comfortable asking too much. However, you are now a member of the Demon Hunt Squad. Counting Han Yu, you are also one-seventh of the power. For the entire team, everyone is very important. So, if you want the team to develop better, your summoning must be stabilized as soon as possible.”
Chen Ying’er was stunned for a moment and muttered, “I’m afraid it will be at least the seventh rank before I can truly control the Gate of Life.”
Gao Yingjie said, “There is another way, which is to have a natal summoned beast as soon as possible. With your current situation, it will probably be ten years before you reach the seventh rank. Do you want to rely on your partners to protect you during these ten years? For a team, this is likely to bring disaster to everyone.” As he spoke, his tone gradually became stern.
Chen Ying’er’s pretty face was slightly pale, and she slowly lowered her head without saying a word.
In fact, everyone else was very clear about her situation, but the team had just been formed, and she was still a little girl, so no one wanted to say anything to avoid affecting unity. It was obviously the most appropriate for Gao Yingjie, the leader, who could also be said to be an outsider to the Demon Hunt Squad, to say it.
The fact was indeed the case. Even Lin Xin, who could not launch attacks in the team, could use his quite excellent magic control and magic release ability to assist the entire team in defense. However, once Chen Ying’er’s Gate of Life could not summon a powerful magic beast, she would only be a burden to the entire team. Even if it was summoned, it might not be a good thing for the entire team if it could not be controlled well. Therefore, she can now be said to be the most unstable link in the entire team.
Gao Yingjie’s majestic gaze swept over everyone, and he said in a deep voice: “You must all remember. You are a whole, a complete collective. Everything must be focused on the interests of the collective. Otherwise, if one person has a problem, everyone will be implicated. In battle, you must depend on each other, perform your duties, and do your part to the best of your ability, even if you use up the last bit of strength.”

“For the next three months, I will pass on my experience to you as much as possible. How much you can receive and how much you can exert depends on you. Now, I will briefly analyze the situation of each member of your No. 1 Knight-level Demon Hunt Squad.”
“I have already talked about Chen Ying’er, she is the uncertainty in the team. However, since you are a team, then everyone has the obligation to protect her in battle. Once she grows up in the future, she will definitely become an important part of the team.”
Turning his gaze to the only mage in the team, Gao Yingjie’s expression was obviously a little strange, “Lin Xin, do you know? You are the most outstanding mage of the same age I have ever seen.”
“Ah?” Lin Xin was stunned for a moment, and he was really uncomfortable with this sudden compliment. He originally thought that Gao Yingjie would despise him for not being able to attack.
Gao Yingjie said in a deep voice: “Your battle against me today was the first cooperation of the entire team. But in this cooperation, in addition to Long Haochen’s magic beast, the one who cooperated with him the most tacitly was you. Your elemental shield can always fall on him in the first time, and, also the elemental shield, the defensive power you release is stronger than Long Haochen’s magic beast. If I’m not mistaken, you are improving the elemental shield by relying on your own control, similar to the effect of resonance. The staff in your hand should be pure Fire Cloud Crystal, right? Although it has a lot of increase for you, if you don’t have excellent talent, it is impossible to continuously launch defensive magic at such a rapid speed.”
“Although it shouldn’t pry into other people’s secrets, but among you, what I want to know most is why you don’t practice any attack magic. I know that you are also a magic pharmacist at the same time. Even if you use your mind for two things, you can still use defensive magic so well. If you wholeheartedly practice a complete magic system, it can be foreseen that the Magic Temple will definitely be proud of you in the future.”
Listening to Gao Yingjie’s words, Lin Xin was silent. The young man with self-love and ink-green long hair suddenly dimmed, but he didn’t say anything, just lowered his head and sat there.
Gao Yingjie took a deep look at him and said, “Okay. For now, let’s set your tactical system according to Lin Xin only being able to use defensive magic. In the team, Lin Xin’s role is no lower than that of a shield warrior, and because he casts magic, his role in the team is even greater than that of a shield warrior. Lin Xin, you must remember that if you really never want to learn attack magic, then in the future you must put more effort into fire-based defense and auxiliary magic. When facing strong enemies, you must assist Long Haochen in defense, just like you did against me today. When facing a large number of enemies with weak individual strength, you are the firefighter in the team. Whoever encounters danger or needs help, you must complete it in the first time. This requires you to have enlightenment in the big picture.”
Lin Xin nodded silently, “I’ll do my best.” He only replied with such a sentence, and he didn’t say anything else, seemingly because he was stimulated by Gao Yingjie’s mention of why he didn’t practice attack magic earlier.
Gao Yingjie said: “I tentatively set Lin Xin’s position in the middle and rear of the team, while Chen Ying’er, who needs the most protection, is in the center of the team. Long Haochen, you must always pay attention to letting your magic beast assist them in moving during battle. For example, wind-based floating techniques, or even having your magic beast carry them.”
Long Haochen seriously remembered every word Gao Yingjie said. These are all true experiences! In terms of cultivation, few people can surpass Ye Hua’s research. However, in terms of actual combat, especially in team battles, Ye Hua is difficult to compare with Gao Yingjie in front of him. Just from the scars on his body, you can see that his experience is a bloody lesson.
