From the Soul Stage to the Dragon Slayer Stage, using the Three Divine Arts at the start can already grant four times the power, agility and endurance, which is sufficient, why bother spending effort to master it?

  With this time, it's better to go learn a more powerful divine spell. After all, there are too many divine spells, and even if a divine knight devotes his entire life to learning them, he won't be able to master them all, so he has to make choices.

  Paladins, apart from divine magic, can also learn various martial arts like warriors. Even mages can take potions and strengthen their bodies through rigorous training, but why don't they do so? Because for those with magical abilities, time is the most precious thing.

  Soul Tier, solidify soul origin, increase soul power, allow magic users to absorb magic energy faster, and physical quality will be slightly improved.

  Warrior's stage is a perfect enhancement of the physical body, where the heart, muscles and skeleton become stronger under the tempering of magical energy.

  Generally, close combat mages can increase their physical fitness by about tenfold when they advance to the decisive stage. Even for spellcasters who are known for being weak, they can still have a two to three times boost in strength. After all, they spend most of their time meditating and practicing magic, so it's inevitable that their physical enhancement won't be too much.

  The Refining Stage, the physical strength of a mage has almost taken shape, and the subsequent increase in amplitude will not be too great. At this stage, the main focus is on mana circulation, allowing the soul seed and body to become more harmonious, making the body better and more capable of carrying mana, and unleashing 100% combat power.

  At this stage, talent evolves for the first time. In addition to that, there is also a divine gift, which is the ability to summon a magical servant.

  Dragon Slayer's Stage. As the name suggests, it means that the magician has acquired the qualifications and strength to challenge the giant dragon. However, what is most important at this stage is still an increase in life.

  Even if it is a high-level spirit that claims to have the longest lifespan, it will also die, let alone humans who only have a hundred years of life. Who doesn't want to live forever?

  Almost all mages are like wound-up puppets, striving tirelessly towards the Dragon Slayer's stage.

  Paladins would not waste precious time on the initial three divine spells, or even some less commonly used intermediate divine spells. The fastest promotion to Dragon Slayer is the pursuit and goal of many mages.

  Fenny's natural talent is not bad, and she didn't spend much time on the Soul Stage to reach this level, so she has the capital to be proud.

  "Envy!" Hamlet expressed his attitude succinctly.

  "It's still too slow." Fanny shook her head, "I want a halo!"

  Brilliance can only be applied to a single target at a time, but after the Paladin reaches Warhorse rank, Brilliance automatically upgrades to Halo and becomes an AoE buff.

  Although the halo consumes more magical energy, at the same time, it can bless group targets with divine skills. The tactical significance on the ever-changing battlefield is self-evident.

  The last ghoul was left with one, under the blows of everyone, swaying.

  "It's mine!" the Red Armor warrior bellowed, and a spear of magical energy suddenly appeared beside him, shooting rapidly towards the Ghoul, piercing its skull.

  "Ugh, you're using your gift to steal the kill again!" Fanny pouted, though she complained, anyone could tell she was teasing her companion.

  "Haha, sorry about that! My Blood Gun talent was born for stealing kills!" The Red Armor Warrior sat down on the ground with a thud, raised an eyebrow, and had a smug expression as he looked at the dead Ghoul.

  "What's your gift?" Fanny looked at Downton, very curious. "Not suitable for battle?"

  "Hurry up and clean up the battlefield, leave here as soon as possible!" Tang suddenly changed the subject, he wouldn't tell his talent to strangers.

  "Hmph, never mind then." Being rejected made Fanny's face turn pale.

  The Red Armor Warrior pulled out a Soul Stone, just about to extract the residual soul from the corpse, when he saw strands of purple mist floating out and being sucked into Tang Dong's backpack.

  Mo Tian wouldn't let this big meal go to waste. Before Tang Don even opened his mouth, he had already taken action. Anyway, staying in the backpack wasn't a concern about being seen by others.

  "Sorry!" Tong Dun felt a bit embarrassed and thought Holma's eating posture was too ugly.

  "It was me who apologized." The Red Armor Warrior smiled awkwardly, according to the unspoken rules of their team, Tang Dun had turned the tide of battle and saved them, so the spoils of war should have been his.

  Hannah and the other two didn't take out the Soul Stone to extract souls, all because of this reason.

  Hamlet propped himself up with his body and went to support the archer, but unfortunately it was too late. He had lost all his blood and stopped breathing.

  "Thank you." Hanna wiped the sweat from her forehead and extended her right hand towards Downton.

  This is a beautiful girl, only seventeen years old, but has already shown the aura of an older sister. She is tall and slender, with well-developed breasts that are barely contained by her wide leather belt, which sways gently as she moves, revealing enticing curves.

  "Leave first!" Tandon lightly grasped and then let go.

  Hannah had the deepest impact on him, those sky blue eyes were full of confidence and pride, very opinionated, and when speaking, completely with the attitude of a leader, obviously a big shot who often gives orders.

  No one wanted to stay here for long, after a brief rest, the five people set foot on their return journey. When they walked out of Crow Ridge and could no longer smell that foul odor, even Hannah, who cared most about her image, sat down on the ground.

  The atmosphere is relaxed and everyone has also developed an interest in chatting.

  "A holy knight born from a wild roadside has no future, you should enter the Theological Academy to study." Hanna tapped her staff on the ground.

  Fanny and the other two immediately stopped talking.

  "Don't worry about admission qualifications and tuition fees, I'll take care of it." Hanna named a price to repay the favor to Tanton.

  "Thanks, but I don't need it." Tang Don thought to himself that there was still an underground city waiting for him to explore and occupy, where did he have the time to go to the Divine Academy to become a god?

  "Your path to promotion is wrong, as a Holy Knight, you should focus on divine magic and martial arts training, or it will be a waste! Vieri, also known as the Red Armor Warrior, heard Danton's refusal and quickly persuaded him, "Don't feel embarrassed, you saved us, Hannah paid the price, it's only right."

  "It's really unnecessary." Tandon frowned, "I didn't save you for repayment."

  Hannah was rarely at a loss for words and for a moment didn't know what to say.

  "What brings you to Crow's Peak?" Fanny asked, noticing Vieille giving herself a sly glance.

  "Take the magic medicine." Tong Dun stood up, "If you're all right, I'll leave first!"

  "Hey, Tonton brothers, don't be in a hurry, to show my sincerity, I'll treat you to dinner?" Vieiri jumped up, shouting with his mouth, but his eyes were looking at Hanna, making a lip shape, "Leave him behind?"

  "These people are not weak, let's just consider it a personal favor!" Tang Dun didn't have time to bother with them and quickly left without looking back. As for the two magic stones they consumed, he wasn't stingy, and he also appreciated Hamlet's character, so he considered it a gift.

  "Hmph, but he's just a trash Holy Knight who can't even link three Spirit Arts together, what's he being so arrogant about?" Fanny looked at Tongdon's back and curled her lip.

  "His strength is probably around Soul Stage One, yet he dares to enter Crow Ridge alone. Either he's crazy or he has a must-do purpose?" Vieri stroked his chin and shook his head, "I don't believe that something about collecting magic herbs answer."

  "Don't say that, his martial skills are good and his weapon is fine." Hamlet didn't want to hear his companion speak ill of the man who had saved their lives.

  "Now that you mention it, I'm even more surprised. Look at the kid's skin and behavior, he's just a commoner who's been weathered by the wind and sun. How could he possibly afford a perfect-grade battle axe?" Vieri licked his dry lips, his face filled with envy. "To be honest, I've got an urge to snatch it from him."

  "What are you joking about?" Fanny asked in astonishment. "A perfect-level weapon, enough to empty the treasury of a viscount."

  "He wasn't mistaken, that battle-axe emitted a tribal aura, called Rending Dragon's Tooth, it was the ancestral altar's unique sacrificial equipment." Hanna was an excellent student at St. George College, she had seen this knowledge in the Grand Library, "His twenty-second wild explosion should have activated the Giant's Power effect, what a pity, if he had possessed the giant demon bloodline, the power released would be even greater."

  "I knew it wasn't right, turns out he's relying on a perfect-grade battle axe to boost his combat power, despicable! Fanny automatically ignored the excellent-grade two-handed sword in her hand. 'If we hadn't run into a high-ranking ghoul with strength around the fifth tier of Judgment, we wouldn't have needed him to lend a hand.'"

  Fenny was very indignant.

  "Alright, if it weren't for our good luck and equipment, we'd have become the ghouls' lunch." Vieri still had a lingering fear thinking about this experience.

  "No, he may not know magic, but his martial skills are very skilled. Didn't you see him behead the flesh-eating ghost? He's very experienced, as if he knew them particularly well." Hamlet recalled Danton's battle process and gave an evaluation.

  "He's formidable, in combat, there are almost no unnecessary movements, and his strikes are extremely accurate." Vieri nodded, as a close-range fighter, he had a deeper understanding of Danton's fighting style.

  "Huh? How can I not see that he's so strong?" Fanny said with a mocking tone, she had been rejected by Tong Dun before, so she didn't like him and deliberately belittled him.

  "His martial skills are at least at the level of Judgment, no, Dragon Slaying!" Hannah looked towards the end of the dirt road, where Tang Don's figure had already disappeared. "Very powerful."

  "Dragon-slaying stage? Impossible!" Fanny's jaw almost dropped to the ground in shock.

  "Wait, our all-knowing honor student can't even recognize his martial skills? How rare is that?" Vieri's expression changed to shock and then to disappointment.

  As a close combat fighter, Vieille was naturally interested in powerful martial arts.

  Dangton slaughtered over a thousand Corpse Eaters, if he wasn't familiar with them that would be called seeing ghosts. As for combat, he was being taught by a magic book more perfect than any textbook.

  "No, that kid has a problem." Hannah suddenly shouted out in contemplation, startling her three companions.
