Long Haochen couldn’t help asking, “…Teacher, do you think that the girl may be in trouble?”

Xingyu shook his said, and answered. “No, she should be on the same side as that white-clad man, both of them probably belong to the Assassin Temple.”

“Assassin Temple?” Long Haochen’s eyes were full of curiosity

Xingyu pulled on the hand that wore the ring, thinking aloud, “Isn’t this an interspatial ring?”

As he said that, Long Haochen’s finger suddenly emitted a small light, and, as his fingertip touched the ring, it caused a thin blue halo to appear.

Xingyu looked astonished and told him, “You’re quite lucky. It must have been that little girl who left this to you. It has incredible value, don’t forget that. That little girl is quite interesting.”

Long Haochen scratched his head, his beautiful face looked quite doubtful. He actually didn’t understand what his teacher meant at all.

“Teacher, do you know how that white-clad man made those fierce-looking people disappear?”

Xingyu showed a smile, “They disappeared because he killed those people by using the Thousand Strikes Spiritual Stove, that’s used by those from the Assassin Temple, to break them into pieces, then burn them into ashes without leaving a single trace. It was also through the use of a spiritual stove that the spiritual energy in your body grew. It helped you break through in your twelve spiritual energy channels by burning some impurities, causing changes in your body. This is no small favor, you have to keep it in mind, and, if you have the occasion in the future, return the favor to the other side. You can’t owe them forever, unless…”

Normally, he wouldn’t interrupt him, but Long Haochen himself didn’t notice that he did so because he found a lot of interest in Teacher Xingyu’s words.

“Teacher, what is this Thousand Strikes Spiritual Stove? Was it the white lights that appeared at that moment?”

Xingyu nodded, saying, “You can interpret it like that. Using simple words, it is a smelting furnace that uses spiritual energy, making it undergo several transformations. Each spiritual stove is exclusive to a particular person. However, you don’t need to study the knowledge regarding spiritual stoves yet, so I can only tell you now that a spiritual stove is extremely rare. By possessing a spiritual stove such as the Thousand Strikes Spiritual Stove, one will not become a great powerhouse for certain, but without any, one will never be able to stand at the peak of power.”

“Oh.”

Listening to him, Long Haochen’s heart immediately let out a feeling of envy. If in the future he could get a spiritual stove, how would he feel? Looking at the ring on his finger, he couldn’t help recalling the little girl he met that day.

Xingyu said, “I already had Balza inform your family, you will be allowed to go home once a week. The other times, you will be staying here to practice with me.”

Long Haochen was startled and asked, somewhat anxiously. “Teacher, can you still give me some Elemental Training Liquid?”

Xingyu nodded, and answered, “I will do so every time, right before you go home. If your performance is good, I will even give you some better medicine that will have a very good effect on anyone’s body. On the other hand, if you don’t meet my expectations, then I will drive you away from the mountain and you will not be a Knight Squire from the Knight Temple anymore.”

As he said those words, Xingyu’s eyes looked profound, showing a small apologetic look. However, he concealed it very well. Basically, Long Haochen didn’t even see it.

The moment young Haochen heard Xingyu’s words, he immediately nodded, and showed a firm and inflexible gaze. For his mother’s health, he will seriously complete everything that was instructed by his teacher. Moreover, he knows that it’s for his own good that his teacher was teaching him.

Xingyu nodded with satisfaction, and said, “From today onwards, I will instruct you in all kinds of knowledge in the morning. In the afternoon and the evening, you will practice. You must remember the knowledge I instruct you in. For each thing you forget, I will deduct one portion of Training Elemental Liquid.”

He obviously knew the weak point of Long Haochen; with only a little warning, he scared the little guy up to the point where he was now just repeatedly nodding.

Xingyu said, “Tell me what you know about the Temple Alliance.”

Long Haochen replied, “Instructor Balza taught us that the Temple Alliance is an alliance that includes the Knight Temple, the Warrior Temple, the Assassin Temple, the Mage Temple, the Priest Temple, and the Spiritual Temple. These six temples are united in order to guard the last territory of humanity.”

Xingyu nodded and added, “You are right, but these are merely the most basic facts. During ancient times thirteen thousand years ago, mankind gradually gained control of Shengmo Dalu. At that time, in the mainland, tens of human countries were formed: they ruled the continent and caused humanity to dominate Shengmo Dalu. Each country developed their own technology and agriculture, in addition to their own intellectual knowledge. It was during this period that mankind developed the fastest. People lived at peace, at ease, and the continent was flourishing.

“After those peaceful days passed, wars began to appear. Among themselves, the ten countries were involved in ceaseless warfare, and, due to these confrontations, the number of countries lessened and the situation became a confrontation between three big countries. Nobody dared to act rashly towards these three countries and this balanced situation lasted for several thousand years. We call this period ‘mankind’s glorious seven thousand years.’

“This lasted until six thousand years later, when this brilliant period suddenly ended because of the arrival of the demon race.”

At that moment, Xingyu showed a gaze full of horror and hatred.

“As humans continued their normal lives, nine stars aligned, and an enormous void ripped open in the sky over the eastern part of the mainland. Seventy-two demon gods emerged from the rift, bringing with them plagues that came from their demonic breath.

“During the hundred days that followed the first appearance of these demon gods, all living beings, regardless of whether they were wild beasts, magical beasts, or humans, immediately experienced enormous biological variations once they were infected by the gas, and became demonic beings that belonged to the demon race and obeyed all of the orders issued by the demon gods. After a hundred short days, the seventy-two demon gods had an army of several million soldiers. Fortunately, these demon gods’ demonic breath was only sent out continuously for no more than a hundred days, else I’m afraid humanity would have already gone extinct.”

Long Haochen was only an early youth, he did not have a lot of responsibility and he knew it, so he listened to Xingyu’s narration as if he was listening to a tale. However, he didn’t forget how Xingyu had just threatened him and, as he listened, he tried to keep the tale firmly in his memory.

“Seventy-two demon gods, and each one has, truly, an almost impenetrable defense. They are ranked according to their strength and are the ones who led the armies of mutated demons to assault humanity with the intent to wipe us out. From the day these seventy-two demon gods arrived onwards, humanity entered into a dark age that has lasted until this day.

“After the six thousand years of mutual strife, mankind’s countries were already destroyed and, although we saved important wealth and forces, when facing these demonic armies, we were still in a disadvantageous position. We were even nearly extinct until mankind’s strongest powers, the six Temple Halls that appeared three thousand years ago, after a lot of struggling, managed to stabilize our situation, stopping the demons’ progress. However, our Temple Alliance only occupies a little area, only one quarter of the mainland.”

When he arrived at that point, Xingyu’s tone clearly rose up, both of his eyes were sending out a bright radiance, “Thus, today I will instruct you in your first lesson that will keep in mind the pain and shame that the demon race has brought us. As Knights, we must guard our homeland, our dear ones, our race. You must recite these words every day, and get enough power to protect the people we must guard.”
