Genshin Impact: Reincarnation as a Hilichurl

After the chief instructor finishes the explanation, the rest of the time is for independent practice.

Wang Chen saw that most of the reserve personnel were already practicing the five sword moves in succession, with only a few still practicing them in separate steps.

The Knights Templar select new recruits every quarter. Those who want to participate must register two months in advance, and training officially begins one month before the selection. Although this period of training was shortened by a few days due to the dragon disaster, others have still practiced West Wind Swordsmanship for at least two weeks.

And most of those who are interested in joining the Knights Templar have been practicing martial arts since childhood, or at least have learned a little kung fu before signing up.

Shaking his head, Wang Chen calmed down and swung his sword.

This was the first time he had learned swordsmanship in his two lives, so he had to lay a solid foundation. The basic movements in the previous hour were totally insufficient.

What he is most worried about now is that he has worked hard to develop conditioned reflexes and muscle memory, but that they will all be lost after his body recovers.

But the skills in my mind will definitely not slip away.

On the other side, Xiao found two followers who were not well-trained and secretly told them things.

"You will go find the man in the cloak later and ask him face to face why he is covering his face in public. Then, no matter what he says, ask him to take off his cloak."

"oh oh."

The thin and pale young man nodded seriously, and searched the area Xiao had just pointed out with his dim eyes, but he did not find the so-called "cloaked" person after repeated observations.

Feeling a little annoyed, he asked another companion: "Did you see the man in the cloak?"

The companion confirmed it again and finally shook his head.

Xiao left after explaining the situation. The two of them had happily agreed to it, but they hadn't even seen the target. If they went to Xiao to confirm, their favorability would undoubtedly decrease.

But the consequences of not asking are even worse.

The two followers had no choice but to approach Xiao who was practicing sword.

"what happened?"

Xiao stopped the sword in his hand, a trace of disgust flashed through his heart. He hated people who had no ability but still expected to rely on him the most, but he didn't want to give up the power of these people.

"We, we didn't see the cloaked man you were talking about."

"what?"

Xiao almost suspected that there was something wrong with one of his ears or eyes, or maybe both of them were broken at the same time?

He raised his chin and pointed in the direction of Wang Chen, saying, "Isn't that it?"

The two cautious followers looked at Wang Chen. The shielding from their mental power made them subconsciously ignore Wang Chen's outfit.

"Didn't you see it?"

The followers felt that Xiao was on the verge of getting angry, so they tried to open their eyes wide and search with all their might, but in the end, they still found nothing.

In the end, Xiao did not get angry. Instead, he put his arms on the shoulders of the two followers and held them to face Wang Chen. He confirmed again, "Did you see the man holding the golden sword and practicing sword swinging?"

"Look, I saw it."

"Then do you see the black cloak he is wearing?"

Two heads shook at the same time, one on the left and one on the right.

Xiao licked his lips. He failed the Knights' selection twice because of his poor physical fitness, not because of his brain.

It seems that this man's cloak and the sword in his hand are both treasures.

He spent some time to ask another God's Eye holder who he was on good terms with, and deduced that only people with God's Eye could see the cloak.

Summoning two followers again, he ordered: "Find the boy holding the golden sword and ask him why he is dressed like this in public. No matter what he says, make him take off his cloak. Make a big noise, and it would be best if you could rub it against his sword. But you have to act well so that others will mistakenly think he took the initiative to attack."

"This……"

The two followers were in a dilemma. They had done all the flattery, running errands and trying to please the boss, but it was hard for them to accept the fact that something was hurting themselves.

"You also know that there is no hope of passing the selection. I have the Eye of God. Once I pass the selection and gain a foothold in the Knights, I will definitely not treat you unfairly. After this is done, you will be ranked first in my opinion. As for who will be ranked first... I have seen your sacrifices."

The Eye of God is a dream that seems infinitely close to many mortals. Perhaps you will find it by your bed when you wake up from a nap, or perhaps you will find it right beside you when you concentrate on doing something and come to your senses.

But this irrational distribution method happens to be the last unreachable distance between them and the Eye of God.

On average, the Knights could recruit ten holders of the Eye of God every year, and this season, five of them appeared in addition to Wang Chen.

In the eyes of ordinary people, with the Eye of God, whether joining the Knights Templar or becoming an adventurer, one can easily reach the top position.

After getting Xiao's promise, the two followers instantly became competitors. Originally they were a little timid, but now they both wished they could cause trouble for Wang Chen before the other one, and they rushed to get closer to Wang Chen.

"Hey! Why are you dressed like this? Hasn't anyone ever told you that you're unique?"

"Yeah, why are you covering yourself up so tightly? Is there something you can't show?"

Wang Chen was concentrating on practicing sword skills. When he heard this, he noticed two people coming over. One was a pale-faced young man with kidney deficiency, and the other was a big muscular guy who didn't look very smart.

"What did you say?"

"Why are you wearing a cloak? Are you ashamed to be seen? Are you deaf?"

The big guy raised his voice, as if he was talking to a hard of hearing old man, which immediately attracted the attention of the people around him.

Mr. Shenxu was not to be outdone and said, "You don't look like a good person in the way you are dressed. How did you get into the reserve force?"

The people around looked at the three people with strange eyes. They had no idea what the big guy and Mr. Kidney Deficiency were talking about, but it was human nature to watch the fun.

"Me? What's wrong with my outfit?"

Is the cloak completely ineffective? Is Alice such a jerk? Without its effect, it would be too conspicuous to walk in a crowd wearing this outfit.

Wang Chen observed the people watching the fun and found that their eyes did not stay on him for long. Instead, they were more focused on the two troublemakers.

Oh? The cloak didn't work. How did these two know that?

Mr. Shenxu noticed the gazes of the onlookers and felt a little scared, but the big guy didn't stop.

"What's wrong with your attire? Why are you asking me? Why don't you take off your cloak?"

Wang Chen sighed and stood on tiptoe to look at the ten deputy instructors and the chief instructor who were resting on the side of the training ground, but they just watched leisurely and had no intention of stopping it.

So he sighed again.

"You want me to take off my cloak? Let me ask you, what does this cloak you're talking about look like?"

"It's probably black."

“…Is there a pattern on this cloak?”

"You want to trick me? I tell you, this cloak is pure black! Don't change the subject. Don't even think about escaping without taking off the cloak!"

"Haha, why should I run away?"

Wang Chen closed his eyes and thought. In the entire training ground, apart from the chief instructor, there were only five people with Divine Eyes, two of whom were Wind-type, one of whom was Thunder-type, one of whom was Rock-type, and one of whom was Fire-type. They were the people who had trained together before.

Is it because the chief instructor dislikes me? This shouldn't be the case, right? Or is this a special test from the chief instructor? Or is there someone trying to mess with me?

In short, there is no point in communicating with these two people who are being used as guns.

"Go away and don't disturb me from practicing sword skills."

Wang Chen summoned two gusts of wind and pushed the two troublemakers two meters away. He could not beat the instructor, but he could crush ordinary people.

The big fool's face suddenly turned pale. He never expected that this person also had the divine eye. If he had known, he would never have agreed to Xiao.

Mr. Shenxu had the same idea, but he knew that nothing could be known in advance. In panic, he looked around, trying to find Xiao to provide some support, but he was met with Xiao's gnashing eyes.

It’s over...both sides are enemies.

The onlookers had never seen Wang Chen before, and they were all shocked to see his move. Seeing the big fool and the man with kidney deficiency being pushed away, they scattered and returned to their training.

If you continue to watch the fun here, it would be bad if someone with divine eyes holds a grudge against you.

Seeing the big fool running away in panic, the Kidney Deficiency Master was also at a loss. Wang Chen calmed down again and stabbed, chopped, poked, and cut calmly...

However, Young Master Shenxu was becoming more and more evil. If he didn't accomplish this task, it would be difficult for him to return to Xiao's small group. He also took the initiative to provoke this man with divine eyes. At this time, in his eyes, he only had one way to go.

He aimed at the golden sword and accelerated towards it.

This caught Wang Chen off guard.

The sword was pushed forward and the man rushed towards the sword at an incredibly fast speed. It seemed that the sword was about to pierce into Mr. Shenxu's chest, and Wang Chen had only practiced sword for less than three hours.

How to do?

In a flash, Wang Chen suddenly had an idea and used the sword, which was already at the end of its force and could no longer be retracted, to slightly deflect after his wrist made an unnatural movement, avoiding Mr. Shenxu's left chest and slashing across the inside of his left arm, splashing a string of blood.
