Chapter 1195: Chapter 404: Instantaneous Slash_3

"Alright, I’m coming down."

At this moment, Rein remembered that today he had arranged to go to the Dragon Knight Reserve camp with Luther and Halowin.

"Rein, you go ahead, I just happen to take a rest." The barbarian girl who had just been nourished felt a bit tired, and it was perfect that she could take a nap.

"Alright, if you need anything, you can instruct the servants."

In the reception room.

Seeing Rein walk into the reception room, Luther sensed something briefly, his eyes widened, and said, "Huh, Lord Rein, why do I feel that your power seems to have advanced?"

"Hm?" Halowin was initially stunned, but then almost completely mirrored Luther’s expression, looking at Rein in surprise.

"Oh, you figured it out at a glance. Indeed, I just took a potion to enhance spiritual power." Rein smiled and deliberately concealed.

Luther and Halowin exchanged a glance, both of them looking quite amazed.

It seemed that Lord Rein was increasingly valued by the Sword Holder Headquarters, to even obtain such a precious potion.

Since the flying mounts of the three had all been reported, soon, the group of three each rode their flying mounts and arrived at the Dragon Knight Reserve camp located in the Sixth Ring.

Upon entering the majestic camp shaped like an arena, Rein found that there were more people than during his last visit.

"Let’s go, Lord Rein, I’ll take you over there to practice for a bit." Luther said confidently.

"Okay."

For Rein, he came the least among the three, even Halowin had recently visited the camp multiple times, getting familiar with some flying combat techniques.

Suddenly, to their left, three muscular men wearing gray and white linen clothes, simple attire yet each with a dual-handed greatsword on their back, walked over. The leader was about two meters tall, with particularly prominent leg muscles.

"Huh, this is Carl, the disciple of Tide Sword Saint. Do you know them?" Halowin looked at Rein and Luther in confusion.

At this moment, the bearded Carl looked intensely at Rein, and said, "This must be Lord Rein?"

"That’s me!" Rein also sized up the other.

He had a vague idea of the other’s intentions.

If he remembered correctly, Linwood had once followed Tide Sword Saint to learn swordsmanship.

"I’ve heard of Lord Rein’s achievements, quite admirable. It’s understandable that Linwood was not your match, but..."

"There have been some rumors lately that after defeating Linwood, Lord Rein’s words were not very respectful of my teacher, Tide Sword Saint. Hence, I’d like to challenge Lord Rein."

"Hm?" Rein quickly understood.

Someone must be spreading detrimental rumors behind his back, and Carl was used as a pawn.

Moreover, judging by the other’s expression, the misunderstanding ran deep, not something easily clarified with words.

Nevertheless, Rein decided to declare his stance:

"Lord Carl, the truth is not as you’ve heard, but saying I didn’t say it might not convince you."

"No problem, I accept your challenge."

Carl was initially taken aback, seemingly not expecting Rein to deny it, but he quickly regained his composure and said, "Great, thanks to Lord Rein for the instruction."

Meanwhile, others around became excited seeing a duel about to happen.

After all, at their level, reputation was valued, and duels were not easily undertaken.

Luther and Halowin exchanged glances, didn’t say anything, but instead, gave Carl a meaningful look and quietly stepped back.

Lord Rein’s power had just advanced again, making himself available as an opponent.

How could they stop him?

Soon, a large area was cleared.

"Hey, who’s that Wizard fighting Carl? Doesn’t look familiar." said many who were quite familiar with Carl, but Rein had only appeared twice at the camp, prompting inquiries.

"Carl’s the true disciple taught the Secret Technique by Tide Sword Saint, his Instantaneous Slash honed in water gives a significant advantage against Wizards."

However, quite a few held differing opinions.

"Indeed against others, but not necessarily against him."

"Oh? Who’s he? Looks quite young."

"You don’t know him?"

"’Carver’ Harold was defeated by him."

"What?! That’s the Fine Gold Swordsman Rein?"

Many exclaimed in surprise.

As participants of the assessment, their abilities matched Harold’s level, yet they understood Harold’s proclaimed strongest legendary power even more.

A few had similar strength to Harold, but to defeat Harold, who excelled in earth witchcraft, was less certain.

"Seems like the outcome isn’t easy to predict."

At this moment, an old man wearing a gray Wizard Robe, holding a short stick, smiled ruefully, and said, "Lord Rein, Lord Carl, both are pillars of the Empire, it wouldn’t be good if injured."

"Could you give me face..."

"Lord Hernandez, my teacher’s honor can’t be tarnished." Carl slightly bowed and said.

"This..." The elder named Hernandez, hearing Carl bring up Tide Sword Saint, suddenly didn’t know how to persuade.

"Alright, do hold back." Saying so, Hernandez shook his head and stepped back a few paces.
