For ordinary people, Xuanzhou Academy may be out of reach, but for the Amos Family, this is not a big problem. After a little bit of planning, Chinelo Amos got a place for Pascal Amos as a freshman.

"You can get a quota, but there are some things that you have to rely on your own efforts. Otherwise, you still can't change other people's opinions of you."

This was the only thing Chinelo Amos said to him before leaving.

At this time, the carriage was driving on the five-meter-wide gallop, and Pascal Amos was naturally sitting in the carriage, closing his eyes and meditating.

"Master, we will probably arrive at Wuliu City this evening. Let's rest there tonight."

The speaker was a lean old man with a kind face. He was sitting opposite Pascal Amos. He seemed to be just an ordinary old man.

But if you really think that the other person is just an ordinary old man, it will be dangerous, because this seemingly ordinary old man has reached the level of a third-level swordsman. He has followed Chinelo Amos for many years and has always been trusted.

Therefore, Chinelo Amos sent him to Pascal Amos's side and asked him to be responsible for Pascal Amos's safety.

"Well, Mr. Damion, you don't need to ask me about this kind of thing. You can just decide directly. Also, don't call me young master in the future, just call me by my name."Pascal Amos said with a faint smile.

Pascal Amos was very clear about the identity of the old man in front of him. His father had told him that this man's name was Damion. He was a subordinate in Chinelo Amos's camp who had been through life and death. He retired from the army because of his age. He looks old now, but The bloody spirit honed in the military camp cannot be eliminated.

The old man smiled and said, "That's not possible. You are the master and I am the servant. I don't dare to overstep my bounds."

"Mr. Damion is joking. Father has always regarded you as an elder. Don't talk about old slaves. It's so unpleasant."Pascal Amos shook his head helplessly.

While the two were talking, the carriage had arrived outside Wuliu City unknowingly.

Night falls.

The largest inn in the city, Yunlai Inn.

In the backyard of the inn, a young figure stood, it was Pascal Amos. He was holding a wooden sword in his hand, and his figure looked thin and lonely.

"the Amos Family's strongest sword move is the Amos Family Double Ultimate Sword, which is divided into two stages: fast and slow. The first stage emphasizes sharpness and has extremely high requirements for sword speed, while the second stage emphasizes calmness. If you don't move, you have to go extremely slowly."

Slowness is also a kind of artistic conception. It is difficult to use a fast sword, but it is even more difficult to use a slow sword. This is not understandable literally.

Pascal Amos smiled faintly and said: "After the teacher's tempering, the strength of my body has increased more than ten times, and the meridians have also been broadened several times. It is not a problem to master these two swords."

The first level in the "Secret Book of the Demon Swordsman" requires not only the introduction of swordsmanship, but also the control of the power of an element in order to achieve the realm of the Demon Swordsman.

As for the Amos Family Double Ultimate Sword, Kuai Jian Jue is an entry-level sword technique for swordsmen. There are three styles in total. As long as you master the first of them, it will mark Pascal Amos smooth entry into the path of swordsmanship.

The Demon Swordsman lineage is almost the same as the division of swordsmen, namely Demon Swordsman, Demon Sword Master, Demon Sword Sect, Demon Sword King, and Demon Sword Emperor. Each level has only five stages, unlike ordinary swordsmen who are divided into seven. Except for the different names of the first realm, the rest are generally similar.

"It's not difficult to practice the Double Ultimate Sword, but it's not so easy to master the elemental power..."

After all, a swordsman can only touch the elements when he reaches the realm of the Sword Sect. To break this barrier, a demon swordsman will undoubtedly need extremely extraordinary understanding and talent, the most important of which is mental power.

Pascal Amos's mental power is ten times that of ordinary people, which also gives him the basic conditions to become a magic swordsman. As for whether he can become a true magic swordsman, it depends on further training.

"However, it's better not to let others know about my ability to practice for the time being. Some people hope that I will always be a waste..." A chill flashed across Pascal Amos eyes, and he dropped the wooden sword on the ground and turned around to leave. .

In the night wind, Damion slightly weathered figure appeared in the yard, picked up the wooden sword on the ground, and sighed: "The young master is talented and intelligent. He should be a good material for martial arts training, but he is born with a weak body. Alas, fate plays tricks on people. …”

Under the vast darkness, the figures in the yard slowly left, and everything became silent.



After three days of traveling, Pascal Amos and his party finally arrived at Daxuan City, the capital of Xuanzhou.

In the middle of the endless flat land, there stands such a huge city, which is very visually impactful. From a distance, it looks like a ferocious beast, exuding a heart-stopping aura. The city walls are extremely tall and majestic. It spreads to the end of the line of sight, still unable to see the edge.

Pascal Amos and his party were already driving on the business road in front of the city. Although it was still some distance away from the city, people were still coming and going on the business road that extended in all directions, and it looked extremely lively. Such a grand occasion was not as good as in Cangzhou. Lan County is much stronger.

The flow of people coming and going was extremely large. Although the city gate was unusually wide, the huge flow of people still made the place overcrowded. Pascal Amos's carriage successfully arrived at the city gate after queuing for a while.

"Who is in the carriage? What are you doing in Daxuan City?" the gatekeeper shouted.

Lifting the curtain, Pascal Amos poked his head out, took out the token of the Duke's Mansion, and said with a smile: "I am a new student at Xuanzhou Prefecture School. I am here to register at the Prefecture School."

"It turns out he is from the Marquis of Canglan County, disrespectful."

The guarding soldiers quickly moved out of the way, and the carriage drove into Daxuan City unimpeded.

As soon as he entered the city, Pascal Amos was shocked by the magnificent scene in front of him.

The streets of Daxuan City are about twenty meters wide and can be said to be extremely empty. However, under the huge flow of people, they still seem a bit crowded. It can be described as "sweating like rain". The abrupt eaves of the buildings are , those high-flying shop signs all show the prosperity of this city.

“What a lively city!”

Pascal Amos eyes were full of wonder. I am afraid that even those big cities in the past life, such as Chang'an City and BJ City, are far inferior to this Daxuan City.

"Just Daxuan City has such a scale. I wonder how majestic the imperial capital Xuejing City will be!"

At this time, Damion smiled and said: "I was lucky enough to have been to Xuejing City, but it was already ten years ago. At that time, I went to Beijing with Mr. Hou. The area of ​​Xuejing City is at least Ten times that of Daxuan City, no, I’m afraid it’s more than that.”

Hearing this, Pascal Amos couldn't help but feel secretly shocked. The scale of Daxuan City could already be described as majestic. If it were to expand ten times, the scale would probably be beyond imagination.

"It shouldn't be easy to manage such a large city. It must be quite a headache for the aloof Xuanzhou Palace Master."Pascal Amos said casually.

Damion shook his head: "The Master of Xuanzhou Palace has no time to care about this. Young Master, you don't know something. There are eight thousand Tiexuan Guards stationed in Daxuan City. Among them, the ones with the lowest cultivation level are all fourth-level swordsmen, and the Tiexuan Guards The commander is already a seventh-level swordsman! With Tie Xuan Guards here, the security of Daxuan City does not need to be worried about by the Xuanzhou Palace Master."

"Seventh-level swordsman? This is almost the same as my father."Pascal Amos said with a shocked expression.

"It's nothing. The commander of Tie Xuanwei has a status similar to that of a county prince. Because he is stationed in the city, his status is higher."Damion continued to explain.

Pascal Amos nodded, "That's it."

"What kind of cultivation is that Master of Xuanzhou Palace?"

The head of a palace, who governs eight counties, has a rank equivalent to the chief ministers of various ministries in the imperial court, and is highly respected.

Damion just whispered two words, and only Pascal Amos could hear them clearly in the carriage.

"Sword Sect."

"The twelve palace masters are all of the Sword Sect. As for the specific level, I don't know."

hiss!

Pascal Amos couldn't help but take a breath of cold air. According to what Damion said, the twelve palace masters are equivalent to the twelve sword sects. If this power is added up, it may be enough to overthrow the rule of the imperial family, right?

Of course, this is just Pascal Amos's fantasy. There are many strong supporters of the royal family among the twelve palace masters. It is impossible and unrealistic to unite to overthrow the royal family's rule.

At this moment, Pascal Amos's thoughts were interrupted by the driver's voice outside the curtain.

"Master, Xuanzhou Mansion has learned."
