Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

“I didn’t expect that there would be a hidden reward for becoming a Jinyao Knight!” Lu Yuan also did not expect that this hidden reward could only be triggered by someone like him who had no profession or had chosen to be a Knight at the beginning of the competition.

After obtaining the Jinyao Knight Badge, Lu Yuan followed Chris out of the City Lord’s Mansion.

“Congratulations, Lu Yuan! You have become a true Jinyao Knight!” Chris congratulated Lu Yuan.

“Sir Nick had said before that after you’ve obtained the Jinyao Knight Badge, you should go and look for him. You should go now,” Chris said to Lu Yuan.

“Okay.” Lu Yuan immediately rushed over to Nick. Usually, when such an NPC took the initiative to look for him, he knew that meant there was a hidden mission.

Soon, Lu Yuan arrived in front of Nick’s small wooden house. Lu Yuan stretched out his hand and knocked on the door. Nick quickly appeared.

“I didn’t expect you to get the Jinyao Knight Badge so soon. I was right about you! Haha!” Nick said to Lu Yuan with satisfaction.

“Here is your reward!” Nick directly sent a white light into Lu Yuan’s forehead.

[ Congratulations on completing Nick’s hidden mission — eliminate the demon squad that invaded the territory of Jinyao City ]

[ EXP +2,500, reputation point +, gold coins +300, Nick’s favoribility +200, acquired skill: Knight Holy Light! ]

[ Knight Holy Light ]

Description: The Holy Light descends from the sky, aids the knight and he becomes a Jinyao Knight bathed in the Holy Light!

“Sir, may I ask why you are looking for me?” Lu Yuan asked Nick.

“The Jinyao Knight’s Academy is going to hold the Rookie Knight Tournament. I hope you can go and participate and have a good fight with other Knights of your cohort. This time, Harvey, a student of the Holy Knight Wayne, who guards the West Gate, is also participating. I hope you can defeat him in the tournament!” Nick said to Lu Yuan.

Lu Yuan immediately understood that there was a grudge between Nick and Wayne.

[ Nick has a hidden mission for you — defeat Harvey in the Jinyao Knight’s Academy Tournament ]

[ mission requirements] : Participate in Jinyao Knight’s Academy Tournament, defeat Holy Knight Wayne’s student, the new Jinyao Knight Harvey!

Lu Yuan accepted the hidden mission without hesitation. The reward of this hidden mission was very generous, and it did not sound too difficult!

“I will defeat Harvey, Sir. Please don’t worry!” Lu Yuan said confidently to Nick.

“Not bad. As expected of my student. I will make sure Wayne is embarrassed!” Nick said to Lu Yuan with a smile.

“There’s no time to lose. You should head to the Academy now! It’s about to start!” Nick said to Lu Yuan.

Lu Yuan immediately got on his white horse and galloped towards the Jinyao Knight’s Academy.

Lu Yuan soon arrived at the Jinyao Knight’s Academy. This time, Lu Yuan was in the Knight’s equipment and was also wearing the Jinyao Knight Badge. He was not stopped by the guard Knight.

Just as Lu Yuan entered Jinyao Knight’s Academy, the Tournament had already begun!

A young Knight in the fighting arena of the Academy said, “Is there anyone else who wants to challenge me?”

He had already defeated several Knights in a row. Even Bruce, who came in top in everything in Jinyao Knight’s Academy was no match for him!

By now, none of the students dared to challenge him, because he had gone all out and did not hold back his hits at all. He had already injured several Knights.

The Knight on the stage was Harvey, the student of the Holy Knight, Wayne.

“That’s to be expected of a student of the Holy Knight. Even Bruce is no match for him!”

“He’s really too strong!” The other students were discussing among themselves. It seemed that the students of the Holy Knights were not on the same level as them.

At this moment, Lu Yuan arrived. He directly jumped into the fighting arena and said to Harvey, “I challenge you!”

Lu Yuan cupped his fists at Harvey and said, “I am Holy Knight Nick’s student, Lu Yuan!”

“Wow! Another Holy Knight’s student!”

“He’s Sir Nick’s student, but why haven’t I heard of him before?”

“Both of them are the Holy Knights’ students. Who is more powerful?”

The other students started discussing.

At this moment, Harvey, who was still in the arena, also bowed to Lu Yuan and said, “I’m Holy Knight Wayne’s student, Harvey!”

Lu Yuan took the lead in launching an attack and used the Jinyao Sprint. The Holy Light from his body was transferred to his lance, forming a terrifying penetrating force!

Harvey was not willing to be outdone either. He also used the same Jinyao Sprint Lu Yuan had used and collided with Lu Yuan’s lance.

Boom!

A thundering sound was heard as violent waves of energy were being emitted.

The two of them were in a stalemate. Then, Lu Yuan activated his skill, Knight Holy Light.

A ray of Holy Light suddenly fell from the sky and covered Lu Yuan’s body. Under the Holy Light, Lu Yuan’s Jinyao Sprint attribute instantly increased by 30%. Harvey was soon defeated!

“Humph! Knight Holy Light? I can use that too!” Harvey shouted angrily. He also used Knight Holy Light, and a ray of Holy Light fell from the sky and covered Harvey.

The two of them were in a stalemate again.

“Good heavens! This NPC is using whatever skill I use!” Lu Yuan sneered in his mind.

“I’ll see if you can use this!” Lu Yuan directly activated his skill, flame spear!

Boom!

A flame spear suddenly appeared in Lu Yuan’s left hand. Instantly, the temperature of the entire arena rose a lot. Lu Yuan used his left hand and threw the flame spear!

Whoosh!

Harvey had no choice but to give up his Jinyao Sprint. He hurriedly took out a huge shield to block Lu Yuan’s attack.

“Good heavens! He even has a turtle shell!” Lu Yuan said!

“I’ll break your turtle shell too!” Lu Yuan held the lance in his hand and continued attacking the huge shield.

Very quickly, the huge shield started cracking. Harvey appeared from behind the shield. He then threw the lance in his hand at Lu Yuan. The lance actually had a faint lightning power!

At the same time, Lu Yuan had used the Holy Necklace to respawn the flame lance’s CD. Then, he used Anna’s Blessing to double the flame spear!

Lu Yuan hurriedly summoned the flame spear and threw it out.

Boom!

It collided with Harvey’s lance which had lightning power!

At this time, a flame spear appeared in Lu Yuan’s hand again!
