“The early bird catches the worm, don’t you think?” Long Dangdang asked, grinning at him.
“Even my teacher wasn’t as tough on me as you are. Look at what you’ve done to me! I’m going to tell my mom about this,” Long Kongkong responded indignantly.
“Go ahead, it’s easier said than done to reach mom in the first place!” Long Dangdang’s smile widened.
Over these two days of personally supervising Long Kongkong’s training, he found that, although Long Kongkong lacked spiritual power, he actually had a lot of fighting talent. While he appeared exhausted every day, under Long Dangdang’s high pressure, his close combat skills improved rapidly. Especially since they are twins, there was a sort of mind-link between them, fostering an increasing sense of understanding between them.
The following days of training brought a mix of pain and pleasure to most of Knights Class One. After a week, excluding Long Kongkong, everyone had essentially grasped the Explosive Burst technique and could use it to some extent. Jian Mu and Mu Yi, in particular, could barely wield the Sacred Sword. This was definitely rapid progress.
As for Long Kongkong, all he had was the pain, no pleasure. He wasn’t sure whether he was making progress, but he was indeed so tired he felt like puking blood!
Finally, Friday night came, bringing the weekend and two rest days.
Most of the young knights of Knights Class One decided to forgo resting over the weekend and continue their stint, claiming that time waits for no one. However, Long Kongkong said he would do nothing, even threatening to kill himself if they tried to stop him from visiting the Ribs Shop Goddess, thereby convincing Long Dangdang not to make him do extra training.
After dinner, the moment Long Kongkong collapsed onto his bed, a familiar voice suddenly reached his ear.
“Come out.”
Upon hearing the voice, Long Kongkong immediately perked up, quickly got out of bed, and dashed out of the dormitory like a bolt of lightning.
Very quickly, he spotted a familiar figure. Long Kongkong’s eyes reddened instantly, and he rushed over to the figure in two strides, saying, “Teacher, I am so pitiful!”
The figure that had come was none other than Cowardly Knight Na Ye, who had eagerly visited his precious disciple right after the beginning of the weekend.
“You seem to have lost some weight,” Na Ye said, his brows slightly furrowed.
Long Kongkong grumbled resentfully, “Really? It’s all because of that guy Long Dangdang who tortures me every day. Teacher, you have to stand up for me!”
“Come with me,” replied Na Ye. He took Long Kongkong’s hand, and with a slight movement of his foot, performed a Slide Step.
Long Kongkong felt the scenery around him flickering, and before he knew it, they arrived at a familiar place – the teleportation array formation in Spirit Furnace Academy.
The next moment, Na Ye activated the teleportation array formation, whisking Long Kongkong away with him.
When his surroundings became clear again, they had already arrived at the teleportation array formation in the Temple Headquarters.
The last time Long Kongkong and Long Dangdang were here, they went straight from the Temple Headquarters to the Holy City. This time, however, Na Ye led him toward another exit – the one leading to the interiors of the Temple Headquarters.
Upon seeing Na Ye, the knight guarding the place immediately performed a knightly salute. Na Ye returned the salute, “This is my disciple. We’re returning to the temple.”
“Yes, Lord Divine Knight.”
For someone of Na Ye’s level, there was no need for any badges. After all, there were only a handful of divine knights in the Knights Temple.
It was the first time that Long Kongkong had set foot in the Temple Headquarters, and the grandeur of the large hall instantly filled him with surprise and amazement the moment it came into view.
The vast hall of the Temple Headquarters was so incredibly vast that it seemed to be boundless. On both sides were towering statues, some donned in armor and wielding weapons, and others in robes and holding magic staffs. Though sculpted from stone, the statues had a vivaciousness about them that was captivating.
“Only those who have made exceptional contributions to the Temple are granted the honor of having their sculptures erected here,” Na Ye explained as he guided Long Kongkong towards the center of the great hall. All the other statues lined the sides of the hall, but one statue stood alone at the center, as if the entire grand building was built to honor this single figure.
The figure was adorned in magnificent armor, with mountains and rivers engraved on it. He had six large wings spread out from his back. He held no weapon, but two giant estocs were implanted into the ground on either side of him. He looked young and handsome, gazing towards the entrance of the headquarters with a gentle smile on his face.
“Follow me and salute,” Na Ye said solemnly, standing at attention with his right fist over his heart, performing the customary knight salute.
Not only him, but every professionist from the 6 Great Sacred Temples would greet and pay respect to this statue before proceeding to their respective destinations.
Long Kongkong followed the gesture respectfully, and asked curiously, “Teacher, who is this statue of?”
Na Ye replied solemnly, “This is our source of pride from the Knights Temple, the first Federation President of the Temple Federation, the former holder of the Eternity and Creation God’s Seal Cathedra Rex, the Glorious Leader God’s Seal knight, Long Haochen.”
Long Kongkong couldn’t help but gasp, “Is he the legendary God’s Seal knight who led humans to defeat the demonic 72-Pillars Demon God?”
Na Ye nodded, “Indeed, he is.”

With newfound respect, Long Kongkong couldn’t help but sneak more glances at the statue. During history class at the Temple Academy, the magnificent epic of how the 6 Great Sacred Temples had fought for thousands of years and finally defeated the demon tribe was always stressed upon. His teacher would always emphasize that the peace of the Temple Federation today had been bought with the blood and sacrifices of countless forbears. And among these forbears, the most significant leader was the figure this very statue was modeled after.
“Teacher, when will you become a God’s Seal knight?” Long Kongkong couldn’t help but ask. The person who acquires recognition from the God’s Seal Cathedra Rex could evolve into a God’s Seal knight. They are commonly recognized as the most powerful fighters among the 6 Great Sacred Temples, and each of the God’s Seal Cathedra Rex is a top-grade Divine Artifact.
Na Ye rolled his eyes at him, “Don’t ask me such embarrassing questions.”
“Uh…” Long Kongkong stuck out his tongue, “Do all six seats of God’s Seal Cathedra Rex have masters now?”
Na Ye shook his head. “Only four seats do.”
Long Kongkong’s eyes lit up. “Then you still have two chances!”
Na Ye replied disgruntledly, “Only one chance. The Eternity and Creation God’s Seal Cathedra Rex that President Long held was the only one in the history of the Knights Temple to recognize someone. In fact, the other five God’s Seal Cathedra Rex are replicas of it.”
“Still, you have a chance! There are not many divine knights after all.”
“The chance is too slim,” said Na Ye with a bitter smile, “Come on, I’ll show you where I train.”
There were many stairs leading up and down on both sides of the headquarters. Na Ye led Long Kongkong to the second floor, which was impressively spacious. They continued up to the third floor, walked down a corridor for hundreds of meters, and finally stopped in front of a set of double doors.
Upon opening the doors, they were greeted by a spacious parlor. The rooms were decorated simply but exuded an air of luxury. Chestnut wood decorations filled the whole room. Three walls were lined with bookshelves, and the parlor also had a desk, a sofa, a coffee table, and some antique decorations.
“Every 9th Rank professionist can have their place in the Temple Headquarters, and this happens to be mine. Come with me, I want to see how much you’ve improved in the past week.”
