Knight Lord: Start with Daily Intelligence

#8 - Hildurde's Astonishing Talent

Bloodbeard Frederick was clearly a knight who took honor, justice, and punishment to the extreme.

People like that tend to be extreme, but they're actually easier to control; all it takes is a bit of manipulation.

So, in a cheerful mood, Su Li hugged his little maid and slept until three in the afternoon. He got up, splashed his face with cold water, and, full of energy, wrapped his arms around the little maid's soft waist, planting a firm kiss on her red lips: "Avril, wait at home for me to bring back good news!"

It was early spring, with a gentle breeze. As he pushed open the door, the cool wind greeted him, lifting his spirits.

Su Li was wondering where to find Knight Schwartz when, unexpectedly, Knight Schwartz, along with Hilde and Reve, were standing under the shade of a tree in front of the room. The two beauties with their ample chests were now clad in chainmail, holding iron swords, the dramatic trembling nowhere to be seen.

Su Li was quite displeased by this and asked, "Shouldn't you be sweating and training on the training grounds at this hour? Why are you here?"

The female attendant, in her bright red training clothes, with sweat glistening between her fair and full breasts, was the sight Su Li wanted to see.

Knight Schwartz, abandoning his usual listless demeanor, was even more excited than Su Li, his tone becoming extremely animated: "Young Master, you—you were right! Hilde is simply a genius! Her talent is astonishing, a cultivation prodigy unseen in a thousand years! I only taught her once, and she grasped the key to the breathing technique! It took her less than two hours to complete the entire breathing cycle. She even taught Reve, helping her break through as well."

Su Li's eyes widened instantly. What a surprise! What a double surprise!

Su Li knew there were differences between people, but he never imagined the gap between a genius and an ordinary person could be so vast. His predecessor had trained hard for over a decade without breaking through, and he himself had been diligent for half a year since transmigrating, yet still couldn't find the path, had no clue.

But Hilde actually mastered the breathing technique in just two hours? Are you a champion knight? You're clearly Huang Rong!

Hilde, praised in such a way, blushed slightly and asked somewhat shyly, "Didn't Young Master Su Li say it was very simple? Just adjust your breathing."

Su Li turned to look at Hilde. You actually believed me when I said that? I was using a strategy, treating you like a child. Theoretically, if you don't tell a child how difficult something is and just keep training them, the goals they can achieve can shock adults.

But I didn't expect you to actually do it!

Then Su Li coughed lightly, suppressing the shock in his heart, and said, "That's right. Hilde, mastering the knight's breathing technique is as simple as breathing itself. Would you be proud of yourself for knowing how to breathe? You must continue to work hard and not become arrogant because of a little achievement. I hope you can break through as soon as possible; champion knight, even chosen knight, should be your goals."

Hilde now completely trusted Su Li, not doubting a single word he said. She had no idea what chosen knight meant; she only knew that every word Young Master Su Li said had come true, was an undeniable fact, so upon hearing this, she immediately nodded emphatically: "Yes! Young Master Su Li, I will train desperately and work hard to break through! I will never let you down."

Reve was a cute, baby-faced girl. Compared to Hilde's restraint and introversion, she was more cheerful and adorable, with a bit of a youthful, busty vibe. But at this moment, she was so shocked by the words "chosen knight" that she had lost her ability to think, her mouth agape as she stared blankly at the confident Hilde. Chosen knight! Why can you say those words so casually?! Above chosen knight is legendary knight, and each one has left behind a famous and immortal legend in ten thousand years of history.

Could it be that she had been wrong all along, that training was actually very simple? That it wasn't difficult at all! Otherwise, there was no way to explain why she had been training for nearly five years and still hadn't broken through. She could vaguely feel the opportunity to break through, but she hadn't been able to. But after Hilde arrived, she gave her guidance for only a dozen minutes, and she broke through smoothly!

This led Reve to be afraid to speak, afraid that her own concept of training was wrong.

Then Su Li stepped forward and patted Reve on the shoulder, saying, "Reve, you must also work hard. Take elite knight and champion knight as your goals."

"Oh, oh, Young Master, I understand, I will work even harder." Reve nodded woodenly. It wasn't until Su Li turned around that she realized what she had just agreed to! Champion knight! Was that something she could aspire to? She had never dared to dream of becoming an elite knight! To be able to become a formal knight and wield the power of bloodlines was already her lifelong pursuit.

"Alright. Today is a day of joy and harvest, so you can temporarily stop training and come with me to take care of some matters. We're going to meet Knight Frederick." Su Li turned to Knight Schwartz and asked, "My chief knight, do you have any connections with Frederick?"

Although Su Li didn't mention the bet again, Schwartz had already been completely won over by Su Li. If it hadn't been for Young Master Su Li's insistence, these two women would never have become trainee knights.

This was true insight!

With Young Master Su Li's ability, even if he only recruited ordinary people and trained them, he could build a massive knightly army. This trip to the Border Prince's territory might be the beginning of a magnificent epic expedition.

So Schwartz was now extremely attentive and immediately replied, "Knight Frederick and I were in the same squadron in the Crimson Night Knights, so we have some connection."

"About how deep is this connection?"

"I blocked two orc axes for him, and he blocked a headbutt for me once. It's nothing much; when our Crimson Night Knights conquered Thorn River Valley, countless wars broke out with the orcs. Those who survived all have life-or-death connections."

Good heavens, that's quite a bit of a connection!

With Knight Schwartz's connection, Su Li was even more confident in persuading Frederick, so he rode in high spirits, full of vigor, and led his people directly into the knight training camp.

Seeing his spirited demeanor, many people in the knight training camp turned to look, and some even exclaimed in surprise.

"Huh? Is that Young Master Su Li? I heard he's going to the Border Prince's territory to develop a territory. Is he here to recruit people?"

"It is Young Master Su Li. But how does he have so many followers? An elite knight, two trainee knights!"

What happened that I don't know about? Young Master Su Li only just became a trainee knight, how does he have so many trainee knight squires!"

Some were shocked, while others were filled with jealousy and hostility.

"Tch, just a good-for-nothing. What idiot would be blinded by greed and go with him."

"Haha, that's right. I heard that Third Young Master is about to be enfeoffed as a kingdom knight because of his military merits. Third Young Master is young but leads the knight squadron to fight everywhere, with glorious military achievements. That's the noble worth following."

"Come, come, let's set up a betting pool and bet on how many people Su Li will attract in the end? I bet one gold coin that he won't attract a single one!"

"Count me in, I bet 1 gold coin that he won't even attract an elite knight!"

"Count me in for one gold coin, he won't attract a single one. I don't believe any elite knight would be blind enough to follow such a good-for-nothing to develop a territory. When they see orcs, they'll probably have to wipe the young master's poop and pee, right?"
