The spring breeze blew green the white poplar trees around the empty land on the east side of Wushan Town. On the empty land, a group of young men were training enthusiastically. It has been a year and a half since the last inspection of the Dragon Blood Warrior bloodline, and Lin Lei is now eight years old. In this year and a half, Hillman clearly found that Lin Leis training became more and more intense!
"Very good, Lin Lei, hold on, hold on!" Hillman said beside him.
At this time, Lin Lei was only wearing long pants, with sweat all over his bare upper body. He was bent down on the ground like a tightly drawn bowstring, his hands pressed firmly on the ground like an old tree taking root, and he didnt move at all, relying solely on his hands and toes to support himself. His whole body was completely tense!
Isometric exercise!
Its an extremely simple yet effective exercise. If one can persist in this state for an hour, then the body will not fear ordinary swords and knives.
"Drip!"
Sweat dripped from his forehead down the edge of his eye socket, and Lin Lei couldnt help but feel a stinging sensation in his right eye, involuntarily narrowing it.
"Lin Lei is really impressive, only eight years old and his static strength training has already caught up with that of thirteen or fourteen year olds." The kids who had given up beside him looked at Lin Lei and discussed among themselves.
"Come on, Ray, lets go, beat those thirteen- and fourteen-year-olds!" Blonde Hailey yelled from the sidelines.
"Go on, Lei!" The other kids cheered too.
Lin Lei had a very good relationship with the other young men. Although Lin Lei was considered a noble son, he treated the commoner sons extremely well and even helped them train in his free time.
"Hold on, hold on." Lin Lei kept telling himself in his heart.
But in Lin Leis mind, he was echoing what his father had said to him a year ago: "Lin Lei, we are the Dragon Blood Warrior family. As a member of the Dragon Blood Warrior family, you have advantages and disadvantages! The advantage is that even if your dragon blood warrior bloodline concentration is not enough to become a dragon blood warrior, your body is still much better than ordinary people. Others may find it difficult to reach level 6 warriors through physical training alone, but for you, it will be easier than others."
"But you also have a disadvantage. The disadvantage is... as a member of the Dragon Blood Warrior family, you are not allowed to cultivate the Dou Qi Secret Manual. Because the Dragon Blood Warrior bloodline in your body is only suitable for the Dragon Blood Secret Manual, it conflicts with any other Dou Qi Secret Manual. However, the Dragon Blood Secret Manual can only be cultivated when the Dragon Blood bloodline density reaches a certain level, so you cannot cultivate Dou Qi."
"Moreover, ordinary people who solely cultivate their physical body can theoretically reach the level of a 6th-level warrior. However, thats just theory, and in reality, such people are extremely rare. But were different, even though the dragon blood warrior lineage is relatively scarce within us. This also means that our starting point is higher than others. We can cultivate to the level of a 6th-level warrior solely through physical training. Your great-grandfather was able to reach the level of a 7th-level warrior purely through his body."
His fathers words, Lin Lei remembered very clearly.
Lin Lei growled in his heart: "Im now more powerful than others because I have the Dragon Blood Warrior bloodline in my body. But I cant cultivate Dou Qi, only hard work, and even harder work! If Grandpa Zeng could reach level 7 warrior through physical training alone, then I... might become an 8th-level warrior, or even a 9th-level warrior. Nothing is impossible."
Warrior of the Eighth Rank!
A ninth-level warrior can be considered the number one master in the kingdom of Fen Lai. If he becomes an eighth-level warrior, even if he cannot restore his familys glory from 5,000 years ago, he will still be able to greatly improve his familys circumstances.
"Hold on!" Lin Lei gritted his teeth.
At this time, both arms ached as if countless ants were biting, and the whole body was trembling constantly. Every muscle in every part of the body was trembling. The degree of tremor of each muscle was so clear at this moment.
After a long time, finally...
Pong!
Lin Leis body fell weakly to the ground.
"It feels so comfortable." Stuck to the ground, his entire body completely relaxed, Lin Lei could clearly feel the numbness and itchiness all over his body. The muscles in various parts of his body began to grow slowly after exercise. This growth is not noticeable once or twice, but after a long time, the progress of the body becomes very obvious.
Hillman nodded in satisfaction beside him.
Hillman immediately looked at the group of 14 or 15-year-old boys and said coldly, "All of you hold on tight, Lin Lei is only eight years old, you are all almost adults, dont let an eight-year-old kid surpass you."
******
After finishing his morning exercise, Lin Lei returned to the Baroque family mansion as usual after saying goodbye to a group of good friends. At just eight years old, Lin Lei looked like an eleven or twelve year old boy, rather than an eight year old child.
The young master of the Baroque family is indeed different from ordinary people.
"Brother!" Worton, with a fierce and vigorous appearance, saw Lin Lei and rushed over immediately.
"Alright, Worton, Im all sweaty, let me go wash up first." Lin Lei pinched Wortons small face and said with a smile.
"Worton hummed: I know, brother, youre going to go take a lesson from Father after washing up."
Lin Lei, as a noble son, received the education of nobility from an early age. The Baroque family, with over 5,000 years of history, was even more strict in this regard than the great nobles of the kingdom.
"Alright, Worton, your brother will play with you at noon." Lin Lei said with a smile.
Worton was still a child, while Lin Lei had to be more sensible.
After washing up and changing into a clean set of clothes, Lin Lei entered the living room. At this time, his father, Hog Barluk, was sitting upright at the dining table beside the living room with three thick books in front of him.
"Father!" Lin Lei bowed respectfully.
Hog nodded indifferently and Lin Lei immediately walked over to stand beside him.
"Yesterday I told you about all the countries on the entire Yulan continent, now repeat it back to me." Hog said indifferently.
This is the real Hogwarts.
It was a rare thing, like when he first held Lin Lei in the ancestral hall. Normally, Huo Kes demands on Lin Lei were severe, and he pursued perfection everywhere, not allowing Lin Lei to make any mistakes.
"Yes, Father." Lin Lei said calmly.
"The entire Yulan continent has three major danger zones, namely the First Mountain Range Magic Beast Mountain Range, the Second Mountain Range Sunset Mountain Range, and the First Forest Dark Forest. The three major danger zones occupy a vast area. Among them, the Magic Beast Mountain Range runs almost through the north and south of the continent, with a total length of over 10,000 miles, containing countless magic beasts, including even those with the power to destroy heaven and earth, the sacred domain magic beasts. The entire continent has also formed different patterns due to this Magic Beast Mountain Range."
To the west of the Monster Mountains, there are 12 kingdoms and 32 principalities. Among the many kingdoms and principalities to the west of the Monster Mountains, they are mainly divided into two factions. One is the Sacred Alliance led by the Kingdom of Finlay. The other is the Dark Alliance led by the Kingdom of Black Lion. The Sacred Alliance and the Dark Alliance have been at war with each other because one side belongs to the Church of Light and the other side belongs to the Church of Darkness.
"In the eastern part of the Monster Mountain Range, there are four great empires, six major kingdoms and many principalities! Among these four great empires, they are extremely vast and not affected by the Holy See or the Dark Church. In the four great empires, imperial power is supreme. Any one of the four great empires can be compared to the Sacred Alliance."
"The four major empires, namely the Yulan Empire in the center, the Lain Empire in the southeast, the Luao Empire in the east, and the Aubren Empire in the north." Lin Lei said this in one breath, also letting out a subtle sigh.
"Is that all?" Hoggs face turned cold.
Lin Lei was about to continue speaking, but Hogg directly said: "I ask you, how many kingdoms and principalities are there in our Sacred Alliance?"
"Our Sacred Alliance has six major kingdoms, ten... ten..." Lin Leis brow suddenly furrowed.
How many duchies were there in the Sacred Alliance? Lin Leis mind was a bit fuzzy, it seemed like fifteen duchies, but also seemed like seventeen kingdoms. For a moment, Lin Lei couldnt be certain.
"Hmm."
Huo Ges face turned cold, and he took out a switch from beside him. Lin Lei obediently stretched out his right hand.
Hogs eye muscles twitched, and the switch in his hand suddenly "slapped" loudly, landing squarely on Lin Leis right hand. A blood mark immediately appeared on the palm of Lin Leis right hand, but he only gritted his teeth and endured it, not making a sound.
"Lin Lei, you must remember that we are now living in the Sacred Alliance and must be most familiar with the affairs of the Sacred Alliance!" Hogg gazed coldly at his son. "Throughout the entire Jade Orchid Continent, there are roughly six major powers: the four great empires and two great alliances."
Lin Lei nodded.
Although Father spoke simply, it was easy for people to understand in their hearts.
"The Sacred Alliance borders the OBrien Empire in the far north, while the Dark Alliance borders the Jade Lotus Empire in the south. Our own Sacred Alliance, under the leadership of the Luminari Theocracy, is no less united than those four great empires."
Lin Lei listened to what his father said and also agreed in his heart.
Yesterday, he also flipped through a lot of books. Its clear that the Sacred Alliance should be considered the artistic center of the entire Yulan Continent. At the same time, the economy of the Sacred Alliance is also on par with that of the economically strongest country, the Yulan Empire.
With the support of the Vatican behind them.
The Holy Alliance is indeed very powerful.
"Today, we study art," said Hogg coldly. "As a noble, one must be well-versed in the arts; it can cultivate a nobles inner temperament!" With that, Hogg took out a book as thick as a fist from beside him and flipped it open.
"In the year 3578 of the Yulan calendar, the great Prulks stone carving master was born in..."
Huo Ge was strict on one side, while Lin Lei was trying hard to remember and understand, striving to meet his fathers requirements.
