Ye Hua looked at Long Haochen and snorted, “Brat, this is your trump card, isn’t it?”

Long Haochen lowered his head. “Teacher, I…”

Ye Hua waved his hand and said, “No need to say anything. Actually, when Nalan Fatty asked me to teach you, I already knew you had another heritage. Otherwise, how could you have such cultivation at such a young age? Is your heritage from your father?”

Long Haochen nodded.

Ye Hua patted him on the shoulder. “Don’t think too much. I’m not blaming you. However, your luck is really not good. You met a fifth-level opponent in this round. Although you won, your trump card was also exposed.”

Long Haochen saw the worry in Ye Hua’s eyes, and his heart warmed. He leaned close to his ear and said something in a very low voice.

Ye Hua’s eyes widened instantly, and he looked at him in astonishment.

Long Haochen nodded to him.

A smile more painful than crying appeared on Ye Hua’s cold face, and he gave him a thumbs up.

“Teacher, what’s the deal with the Squire Knight?” Long Haochen asked in confusion.

Ye Hua said, “This time you got lucky. The Squire Knight is like the Squire Warrior for mages, but the difference is that the Squire Knight can be said to be your servant, not a partner. He swears an oath, so when you are in danger, he can only die in front of you. It’s like a living shield. In the rules of the Demon Hunt Squad, Squires are not allowed to exist, but the Squire Knight is an exception. If the knight himself is a Retribution Knight, then he will be allowed to have a Guardian Squire Knight. Because for the Demon Hunt Squad, the role of the Guardian Knight is too important.”

“It’s just that almost no knight is willing to be someone else’s squire. So, you got a treasure this time. Your squire is also a fifth-level knight, which is of great benefit to your future status and survival ability in the Demon Hunt Squad. Moreover, being able to cultivate to the fifth level before the age of twenty-five, his background is probably not simple either.”

Long Haochen scratched his head and said, “But, his cultivation is higher than mine, he may not be convinced.”

Ye Hua smiled mysteriously, “You underestimate the oath of the Squire Knight too much. No matter how proud he is, under the oath, you are his heaven, his master. Even if he is not convinced in his heart, he can only think of you and serve you. However, becoming your Squire Knight is also good for him. At least he can follow you into the Demon Hunt Squad. Otherwise, he will only be eliminated, and will never have the chance to enter the Demon Hunt Squad again. As for five years later, I’m afraid he will only look up to your achievements.”

“Teacher, then I’ll go back first, to fully heal my injuries, so I can prepare for tomorrow’s competition.” Long Haochen didn’t forget his promise with Caier. Now that the competition was over, he felt a sense of urgency to return.

Ye Hua nodded and said, “Go, but you don’t need to rush. You don’t need to participate in tomorrow’s competition.”

“Huh?” Long Haochen looked at him in surprise.

Li Xin, who was beside him, was already laughing: “Silly brother, have you forgotten about the bye spot? Unless someone can defeat a fifth-level knight today, this bye spot won’t run out of your hands, will it?”

Long Haochen suddenly realized, that’s right! His performance in defeating Han Yu should have earned him this bye spot.

If it was just a competition, he might not be very interested in this bye spot, because he hoped to improve his combat experience and stimulate his potential through constant actual combat.

But the situation has been different these past few days. He has touched the threshold of liquefying spiritual power, and has figured out a cultivation method based on charging skills. In this situation, what he needs more is quiet cultivation.

Exiting the Knights’ Trial Field, Long Haochen couldn’t wait to run towards the direction he had agreed with Caier. From afar, he could already see Caier standing there quietly, like a statue standing on the side of the street. Her attire was unchanged, her green bamboo cane was tapping on the ground in front of her, and she was standing there quietly.

The sunlight shone on her body, seeming to add a bit of warmth to her, and making her purple hair more crystal clear.

“Caier.” Long Haochen called out and ran over quickly.

Hearing his voice, Caier’s body turned slightly, but just as Long Haochen was about to approach her, he clearly felt a strong chill emanating from her body.

“Caier, what’s wrong?” Long Haochen was startled and hurriedly stopped.

Caier’s voice had a coldness that Long Haochen had never heard before, “Are you injured? Who hurt you?” As she spoke, she raised one hand and naturally grabbed Long Haochen’s hand.

Long Haochen said curiously, “How did you know I was injured?”

Caier said, “I heard it. Although I am blind, my hearing is better than ordinary people. Your voice is weak, you are clearly injured.” At this time, the chill on her body dissipated slightly, and she let go of Long Haochen’s hand.

Long Haochen chuckled and said, “It’s nothing, I’m participating in the Alliance’s Demon Hunt Squad selection competition. The opponent I met today was very strong, so I suffered a little minor injury, but it’s already okay. But, I won. By the way, I haven’t told you yet, I’m a knight. Today I performed well, and I should have a bye in tomorrow’s competition. In this way, I’m in the top ten in the preliminary round.”

“Mm.” Caier nodded lightly to him, the chill on her body had completely dissipated.

“Let’s go, I’ll take you back.” This time, Long Haochen took the initiative to hold her little hand, and pulled her slowly towards Caier’s residence.

The two walked slowly, and entered that peaceful atmosphere again. Long Haochen walked very slowly, like a child who had just learned to walk. The sunlight shone on them, and the warm feeling nurtured the strangeness in their hearts, and their heartbeats became a little restless.

However, no matter how slowly they walked, there would eventually be an end.

The moment they stopped, the strangeness in Long Haochen’s heart immediately turned into reluctance. Holding the soft little hand that he had warmed up, he was really reluctant to let go like this.

“Go back and rest early. I’ll wait for you to come tomorrow.” Caier said softly.

“Okay. I will definitely come early, I have a bye in tomorrow’s competition, so I can come and wait for you first.” Long Haochen quickly agreed, what he was most afraid of hearing was Caier telling him that he didn’t need to send her back anymore.

Reluctantly letting go of her hand, “You go in. I’ll leave after you go in.”

But Caier shook her head and said, “I want to listen to the sound of your footsteps leaving, okay?”

For some reason, whenever Long Haochen looked at her dull eyes, he simply couldn’t refuse her, “Okay, then you have to be careful when you go back.”

“Don’t be so desperate in the competition in the future.” Caier said suddenly.

Long Haochen chuckled and said, “It’s not being desperate, it’s working hard. If I don’t work hard to become stronger, how can I protect you?” After saying this, he clearly felt his heartbeat accelerate, and he didn’t dare to stay any longer. He said goodbye to Caier and strode away.

Quietly listening to the sound of his footsteps leaving, Caier’s face turned slightly cold, “He’s injured, luckily it’s not serious.” A hint of killing intent flashed from her body.
