Divine Seal: Six Paths of Reincarnation, I am the Crown-Rank Assassin

Chapter 19 Holy City, Assassin's Trial

The man gasped. Judging from the fluctuation of spiritual energy, this person was probably a sixth-tier Brilliant Knight from the Knights' Temple.

Lying trough,

How could there be such a young and brilliant knight!
Startled, Li Kang reacted quickly.

The ring on his hand shone brightly, and a Spirit Demon-level tower shield appeared in his hand. Li Kang was also at the sixth level of cultivation; no wonder he had been so confident earlier.

"Misunderstanding! This is absolutely a misunderstanding!"

he shouted.

Before the Spirit Demon-level tower shield could even pierce the ground to amplify its defense, it was already smashed to pieces by Dongyue.

Brown metal fragments flew everywhere.

Dongyue smashed the tower shield.

It slammed down on him again, and he coughed up a mouthful of blood.

His aura instantly weakened.

A sixth-tier warrior is already weak in combat among his peers, not to mention that this person hasn't been on the battlefield for a long time.

The blood was blocked in front of him by the aura.

This is a small, third-order barrier, which is quite practical.

"Misunderstanding?" Yan Qianqiu sneered.

When he hadn't drawn his heavy sword, the man swore he was spreading rumors. But when he brought his sword down, the man pitifully claimed it was a misunderstanding.

How interesting!

but,

That's precisely what makes strength so captivating.

Yan Qianqiu picked up the crystal card that the man had arrogantly tossed onto the seat earlier.

He flicked his wrist, and the crystal card was thrown like a dart.

The man looked terrified, and immediately activated the force field defense equipped on his wrist.

The crystal card shattered the field defense.

It shot into Li Kang's chest, half of the card disappearing into his flesh.

Yan Qianqiu's cold voice rang out, "Keep it for your medical expenses."

The man felt a sharp pain in his chest and gasped for breath, yet he dared not harbor the slightest resentment towards the boy's actions.

Li Kang's fat face twitched as he wailed, "As a knight, do you have no mercy at all? Why did you have to treat me so cruelly?"

His lips trembled.

I had known all along that this young man was actually a sixth-tier professional.

He dared not be presumptuous at all; Li Kang couldn't even imagine how powerful the forces behind this young man were.

He might be the most core inheritor of the Knights' Temple.

This also reflects a difference in perspective based on class.

As a descendant of a powerful figure, Lin Xin subconsciously assumed that Yan Qianqiu belonged to the same social class.

As a member of the family, Li Kang assumed that the boy was also a young master from the family's powerful faction.

"Heh." Yan Qianqiu found it amusing, slamming his heavy sword on the ground. "Benevolence is a knight's creed, but I am not a knight."

Li Kang looked at the boy, his expression immediately turning awkward.

The guards at the Aimei Auction House had already noticed the commotion and were about to surround the area when they were all dismissed by the middle-aged man, Li Qian.

Li Qian stepped forward.

With a respectful expression, he clasped his hands and said, "It was indeed an oversight on the part of Aimei Auction House this time. On behalf of Aimei Auction House, I would like to express my apologies to you."

He handed over a crystal card, which showed 100,000 gold coins.

Yan Qianqiu took the crystal card.
He glanced casually at the man lying on the ground, his face filled with fear, and decided not to waste any more time, turning to leave the auction house.

That is power.
If someone lacks power, even if he is the victim, Li Kang will still consider him to be at fault.

This reminded Yan Qianqiu of a saying,
"Specific circumstances define what constitutes justice."

"If one has the ability to define a situation, justice is nothing more than clay in one's hands, which can be manipulated at will."

The boy wore an indifferent smile.

With this mindset, I'm afraid I'll be completely unable to undergo the sacred awakening of the Knights' Temple.

“Cai’er, let’s head to the Holy City.”

"Mm." The girl nodded. As long as Yan Qianqiu could solve the problem, she would support him unconditionally and silently.

The two rode away from Amy City on their scaly steeds.

Heading towards the holy city. ...

The Holy City is the headquarters of the Holy Temple Federation.

It was the first city that humanity gradually built after entering the Dark Ages.

Its long history even surpasses that of the six great temples, and each temple sends a ninth-level expert to oversee it.

And the ninth-tier expert of the Assassin's Temple is none other than Saint Moon.

The old man was bored at the moment, guarding the temple's treasure vault.

Yan Qianqiu and Cai'er arrived at the Assassin Trial Ground, one of the six major trial grounds.

After completing their reporting, the two found a hotel nearby and checked in.

"Tier 5 professionals don't need to participate in the first two rounds of the competition. Let's explore the Holy City for the next few days."

"I want to eat barbecue, Qianqiu-gege." The girl licked her red lips.

Her deep purple, glassy eyes were filled with anticipation.

"it is good."

Asking passersby, they learned the location of the most famous food court in the Holy City. Holding hands tightly, they found a Warcraft-themed barbecue restaurant.

In a private room,
Yan Qianqiu also ordered a few bottles of fruit wine and enjoyed delicious barbecue with the girl.

The furnace fire is the lowest grade of magic crystal. Although it is only worth less than ten gold coins, it has sufficient combustion power and produces no soot.

Roasted Warcraft meat goes quite well with it.

Cai'er sat beside him, blowing gently in the breeze, then lifted the roasted meat and fed it to Yan Qianqiu.

"You should eat too," the boy said with a smile.

"I'm full." Cai'er said with a serene smile. "The most fun thing about barbecue is feeding Brother Qianqiu."

"Open your mouth," the girl said with a smile.

Yan Qianqiu swallowed the roasted meat.

His appetite is astonishing, almost ten times that of Cai'er.

Like a whirlwind, the monster meat on the grill was swept away completely.

These two days,
The two toured the entire holy city.

I spent the night meditating and resting at the hotel until the final round of the Assassin's Trial.

The two stepped into the assassin's training ground.
Cai'er has already put on a purple veil, as is the rule of the Assassin's Temple.

The other assassins, hidden in the shadows of the training ground, also concealed their faces and silently observed the two.

The assassins from the branch halls of the main city and the fortress were very curious about the two of them.

Their faces showed surprise, and they murmured to themselves, "We haven't seen them in the first two rounds. Could these two be both at the fifth rank?"

Under the referee's cold, commanding voice

Twelve assassins appeared on the trial platform.

They hid behind dozens of stone pillars, trying to suppress their heartbeats and holding sharp blades to conceal their presence.

Yan Qianqiu and Cai'er sat cross-legged.

The two closed their eyes, oblivious to their surroundings.

The assassins from the branch hall, unaware of the two men's identities, were filled with doubt and wondered what they were doing.

The assassins exchanged glances.
They communicated using specific gestures and eventually came up with a common solution: to attack together.

The assassin who came with Yan Qianqiu looked amused.

They couldn't wait to see the branch hall assassins' astonished expressions.

Although Cai'er's perception was not as good as Yan Qianqiu's, it was still far superior to that of others.

【The Devious Assassin】

The annihilating power rising from the short sword spread in all directions, transforming into sharp blades that attacked the surrounding assassins.

Almost at first glance,

This powerful force of annihilation shattered several daggers.

"Even a fifth-tier cultivator shouldn't be this strong!"

This thought seemed to spontaneously arise in their minds.

The assassin stared at the dagger in his hand, now only the handle remaining, breaking out in a cold sweat, and looked at the girl with disbelief.

……

It didn't take much effort.
Yan Qianqiu and Cai'er successfully secured their spots in the Assassin's Trial Arena.
