Chapter 44 Knight Irene, the Dignified Instructor

Jiang Yi successfully passed the identity test and sat directly on the chair next to him.

Looking at the pedestrians around, they were afraid of this place like tigers.

It’s hard to imagine that anyone would sign up!

Are the Knights of Favonius so unpopular because of Eula's identity?

Jiang Yi looked thoughtful.

Amber had the same doubt.

"Captain Qin and I don't need mediocre people who just live their lives like before! Those who dare not look me in the eye are not worthy to be here!"

Eula glanced at the passers-by who were looking over.

Suddenly, the pedestrians who were curious about Jiang Yi and wanted to sign up scattered like birds and beasts.

Kaiya was helpless and had to mess with the stack of blank registration papers with his empty hands.

Doodle, origami, and freeze to pieces with the element of ice.

Amber and Eula continued chatting, and then told Jiang Yi the news they had heard.

"We have subdivided functions within the Knights of Favonius, including combat, logistics, gate guards, etc. This morning, Kaia and Eula were in charge of recruiting combat knights."

"When other knights come to recruit logistics and guards in the afternoon, there should be more people."

"Different duties, different training grounds!"

"The training ground for the battle knights is arranged at the side gate of Mondstadt. They can set out at any time to deal with the attacking slimes and hillbillies!"

Jiang Yi said he understood!

Then, I sat here and waited for half a day, until it ended at noon and I went to have lunch, but I didn’t meet anyone who wanted to sign up.

Kaia and Eula were not embarrassed either.

After taking Amber and Jiang Yi to eat lunch distributed by the Knights, he took the only registrant today to the training ground.

At the side door of Mond, there is an open space nearby, which is divided into two parts, left and right, with wooden boxes placed on it.

The left side teaches one-handed swords, and the right side teaches two-handed swords.

Kaia and Eula are recruiters, and they will have priority in selecting new recruits to join their teams in the future.

So come here from time to time and see new people.

There are about two hundred people in the two places, half each.

There were men and women, all holding blunt swords and training broadswords, chopping hard at the wooden stakes as thick as their thighs.

There are a total of eight knight instructors, all of whom are experts selected from the combat side and official knights.

"They are all NPCs that I have never seen in the game!" Jiang Yi looked at the instructor whose aura was different from that of the trainer. It seems that the Knights of Favonius still have some foundation.

"Captain! Captain!"

Four of the eight instructors saluted Kaeya and Eula, apparently they were members of their team.

"Jiang Yi, one-handed sword, learn the West Wind Sword Technique!"

"Arrange training for him to keep up with these people!"

Kaia said to the instructor on the one-handed sword side.

Eula had already rummaged through the boxes and went to the field next door.

"Okay!" The instructors took note of Jiang Yi's appearance and wrote down his name.

Ask the logistics department to prepare an extra meal starting tomorrow.

"I will be responsible for teaching him individually!"

An instructor who was not part of Kaia's team walked out and said in a deep voice.

He is the person who has the deepest understanding of Xifeng swordsmanship here, and the person who obeys his orders is Qin!

"Then... Amber, let's go!" Kaiya said to Amber who was saying goodbye to Jiang Yi, "There is another Hilliard camp outside the city that needs to be dealt with!"

"See you tonight!" Amber waved.

"See you tonight!" Jiang Yi responded.

Intimate interaction attracts attention.

This Liyue man, who was sent by the scout knight, cavalry captain, and wave knight, attracted everyone's attention.

The sound of the sword swinging suddenly stopped.

"Who is this?"

"I think I've heard of it?"

"Who else could it be? If he doesn't recognize him, you're left behind!"

The sound of whispers spread across the training ground.

The knight instructor in charge of teaching Jiang Yi was a tall, middle-aged man with a dignified face.

Bright silver armor and a sword at the waist.

Seems to be the leader of the instructors.

Seeing the recruits' resting movements and conversations, after Amber, Kaia and Eula left, he walked around the training ground, looked at the cut marks on the wooden stakes in front of each person, his face visibly sank, and he started to scold!

"What are you arguing about! You have time for gossip, but no time for sword practice!"

In an instant, the training ground fell silent.

Jiang Yi, who was not affected, felt a toothache.

This feeling reminded him of the military training in school before he traveled through time and those strict instructors.

He had good eyesight, and just now he saw those people swinging their swords vigorously, chopping the thigh-thick wooden stakes, and most of them could only cut halfway through with one sword. Moreover, their movements were seriously deformed.

Only a small number of people could easily cut the wooden stakes into thin slices layer by layer.

Inside, there was a girl with brown hair and a ponytail, who looked familiar to him.

"Erin?" he muttered uncertainly.

The knight instructor was still cursing, and several other instructors were watching.

"You! You! You! You have no strength, didn't you eat?"

"If we can't even cut this, how are we going to deal with the wooden shield hillock thugs?"

"Without the Eye of God and the power of fire, you are just an ordinary person. If you don't work hard now, when will you work hard?"

"No sword can cut through this thin wood. If you encounter a wooden shield hillock thug, by the time you finish cutting the grass elemental shield, he can use grass slimes to create a hundred more!"

"Looking like you are, if you go out you'll be beaten to death by the stick-handling hillbillies, and you'll bring shame to us!"

"You are the worst recruits I have ever trained!"

"If you can't be a combat knight, then be an ordinary knight and help old ladies and old men repair roofs and orchards, and fill in the potholes on the trade road!"

"In order to avoid going on a mission, we will be needed to collect the bodies when we clear out the monsters!"

More than a hundred one-handed sword trainers were scolded and said nothing. The two-handed sword trainers nearby couldn't help but become serious and didn't dare to look around secretly.

"You guys are very good in this, but you are just trainee knights. If you want to become a full-fledged knight, you can't be lazy! Give me ten more stakes and cut them all into slices!"

The few people who performed the best were also scolded because they also looked at Jiang Yi.

"Remember! Only those who pass the knight selection and become an official knight are eligible to choose that team! And become our companions!"

The roar echoed in the training ground.

"What a sin! What a sin!" Jiang Yi looked at the trouble he had caused and apologized silently.

When I looked up and saw the ferocious-looking instructor approaching, my body tensed up.

The instructor took a look at Jiang Yi's body shape and muscles.

After the evolution of his body, Jiang Yi is already a head taller than before he traveled through time. His body is covered with explosive, streamlined muscles, his fingers are long and powerful, and his hands and feet are in perfect proportion.

Most suitable to be a swordsman.

"I've heard of you, the traveler from another world, the chef from another world, the man of the Amber family, Fischl's friend, Diona's fish supplier, the strongest delivery man for the Deer Hunter..."

Jiang Yi was stunned when he heard the instructor call out so many names.

"You are also the provider of information about the treasure-stealing group 'Strange Bird'!"

The instructor patted him on the shoulder and said, "I'm counting on you!"

"For us, the Knights of Favonius, ability is more important than origin. Here, show your talents to the fullest."

"I'm looking forward to it! What kind of surprises can you, a junior who can go through dangerous trade routes alone to deliver food, bring me!"

Jiang Yi looked at the instructor with a kind face and felt a little uncomfortable.

He remembered that when he was in school, the teachers in the first class were all very kind, and then, the kinder they were, the more fierce they became later on.

"Come!"

“Look at your foundation!”

The instructor took Jiang Yi aside.

"Don't use the holy relics on you, just hit me with all your strength."

"Here, no external forces are allowed in any assessment."

"Understood!" Jiang Yi posed, clenched his fist, and reminded him, "I'm very strong. Are you sure you want me to use all my strength?"

"Just fight as hard as you can!" The instructor squatted down in a horse stance, ready to defend himself.

Since the other party said so, Jiang Yi clenched his fist and didn't waste any words.

There is no intention to hide one's shortcomings.

One punch, throw out!

Layer upon layer of strength, from the soles of the feet to the waist, and then to the arms, poured into the fist.

The whole body is integrated into one, condensing a surge of tremendous power.
