Chapter 24

In the blink of an eye, half a month had passed.

In half a month, planting potatoes had been finished in Lister. Therefore, Locke got an “excellent-level” system reward—the construction drawing of the Sword in the Stone of King Arthur.

However, there was not a master of weapon refining in Lister. This reward was a little useless to Locke, so he left it in the system zone.

After being tortured by Athena for half a month, Locke finally could hold on for a few minutes under Athena’s attack.

But it was only a few minutes. As long as Athena increased her strength a little, Locke would be defeated.

One day, Locke got half a day’s rest and adjustment time, so he leisurely looked at the training of his subordinates.

On the training ground outside the castle, three people, Kerton, Becky, and Sam, were besieging Kotter. The horses neighed and weapons clashed with each other.

“Mr. Kotter, defeat them!”

“Come on, Mr. Kerton!”

“Mr. Sam, Mr. Becky, you will definitely defeat Mr. Kotter!”

Their respective retinues were cheering for them in the distance.

After half a month of crazy practice and the function of the divine temple, Sam and Becky successfully became the knights of level 1.

Although Kotter was attacked by three level-1 knights at the same time, he was still skillful and didn’t feel any pressure at all.

Bang!

Kerton was thrown down from the horse by Kotter.

The three of them were already under pressure when facing the level-2 knight, and now there was even one missing. Sam and Becky didn’t hold on for long before they were hit out by Kotten.

“Uncle Kotter, let’s play some moves.”

Watching the fierce fight between the four, Locke felt a little itchy. During this period of practice, he had never fought with any other practitioners except Athena. He wondered how strong he was compared with the ordinary practitioner.

“Now that Master Locke wants to compete with me, I’ll practice with you.”

Kotter jumped off the horse and said with a smile.

Kerton and the others quickly retreated to the side of the training ground, leaving enough room for Locke and Kotter to fight.

On the training ground, Locke and Kotter were confronting each other. The others were holding their breath and waiting for the two to fight.

“Master Locke, watch out!”

Kotter reminded, who took the lead in chopping towards Locke with his big sword. Of course, he didn’t want to hurt Locke, so he only used 30% of his strength.

Feeling the intensity of the fighting spirit on Kotter’s body, Kerton’s face changed slightly. He complained dissatisfiedly, “How could Kotter be like this? He knows clearly that Master Locke hasn’t been practiced for a long time and still uses such strong strength.”

“I think that Kotter will control his strength and won’t hurt Master Locke.”

Sam said slowly. Although he said so, there was obvious worry in his tone.

Becky looked at the two on the training ground nervously.

Contrary to the worries of Kerton and the others, Locke didn’t panic at all when he saw Kotter coming towards him. He tiptoed and dodged aside vigorously.

“Wow!”

Seeing Locke dodge so easily, the crowd outside the ground exclaimed.

Avoiding the attack from Kotter, Locke smiled and teased, “Uncle Kotter, if you want to defeat me, I’m afraid that you should use enough strength.”

He also noticed that Kotter did not use all his strengths.

Holding the big sword in his hand, Kotter was a little surprised. Locke’s speed was almost as fast as his just now!

“Master Locke dodged it so easily!”

Looking at Locke, Becky said in shock.

Sam took a deep breath, suppressed the shock in his heart, and said in surprise, “The speed of Master Locke just now must have surpassed us.”

Looking at the two people on the ground, Kerton added in a trembling tone, “No, no. Master Locke’s speed is not only faster than ours, to be exact, he has caught up with Kotter.”

Hiss~

Sam and Becky felt their scalp tingling.

“It seems that if I don’t show some real skills today, I won’t win so easily,”

Finally, Kotter became serious. This time, he had to use 60% of his strength! He believed that although Locke’s speed was very fast, Locke’s strength was definitely not as powerful as him. He was a real level-2 knight.

“Since it was Uncle Kotter who started the fight, let me do it this time.”

With these words, Locke’s eyes narrowed slightly. The small universe in his body began to work, and a faint strong aura was emitted from his body.

After a month’s training, Locke had been able to operate the small universe and use the divine power skillfully. The small universe in his body had also entered the middle stage of the sixth sense, and its combat power was equivalent to level-2 practitioners of Icacia Continent.

What was this?

Feeling Locke’s strength, Kotter’s heart skipped a beat. Danger! He sensed danger from Locke!

This power was not the fighting spirit, but he was sure that it was definitely stronger than the fighting spirit!

Bang!

Locke kicked the floor with his feet and stabbed at Kotter as fast as a shooting star. The huge recoil left two footprints of five or six centimeters deep on the ground.

“So fast!”

With a scream, Kotter couldn’t see what Locke was doing!

Gritting his teeth, Kotter made a defensive posture, staring at the direction in which Locke came, trying to capture Locke’s movements.

“I found it!”

Within a second, Kotter finally figured out the direction of Locke’s long sword. With years of fighting experience, Kotter held his big sword horizontally in front of his chest.

Clang~

After resisting Locke’s attack, Kotter took two steps back with his feet, and then his body spun. With a strong power of fighting spirit on his arm, he wielded his big sword and hacked at Locke.

Locke was surprised to see that not only did Kotter resist his attack, but Kotter also attacked him again.

The small universe within his body rapidly worked, and his divine power was also rapidly gathering.

The long sword in Locke’s hand emitted a faint purple light, waved towards the big sword of Kotter.

Clang~

The sound of the collision of weapons made the ears of the people around hurt, and a strong wave of energy directly forced them to take a step back.

“He is so powerful!”

Kotter felt as if his big sword had cut into a piece of black iron, unable to move forward at all. He felt a dull pain in his palm.

Seeing that he couldn’t win by his strength, Kotter distanced himself from Locke again.

Locke chased after the victory and the long sword was waved towards Kotter’s neck.

Kotter cut Locke’s long sword with his sword and then chopped at Locke’s waist.

They continued to attack and the two of them fought seven or eight times in the blink of an eye.

The more Kotter fought, the more frightened he became. In the end, he no longer suppressed his strength.

Bang!

The two men’s weapons collided.

“Uncle Kotter, it’s over.”

Just as Kotter was still in a state of surprise, Locke’s smiling voice rang in his ears.

Before he could react, he suddenly felt a palm falling on his chest. The huge force in the palm directly threw him away.

There was dead silence in the whole ground, and there was no sound at all.
