Chapter 20 Attention from All Sides

His evaluation was almost harsh.

How old was Marcus this year?

Tristan remembered that he was only a teenager.

As a knight apprentice, these peers in the school were still practicing hard.

Even those who were praised as geniuses were overshadowed by Marcus.

Sure enough, a real genius was different from others.

Marcus had only seen the space breaking slash once, but what he showed with his sword was indeed incomparable to anyone else.

At least in Tristan's teaching career for so many years, he had never seen anyone who could compete with Marcus.

It wouldn't be long before Marcus became stronger and stronger until one day, he could surpass him.

Tristan felt frustrated.

This was a deep sense of powerlessness that was born when one looked up at a talent.

"You are awesome."

Tristan added and patted Marcus on the shoulder.

Marcus returned the borrowed sword to Tristan and said, "Mr. Tristan, this is just my beginning."

His eyes were full of ambition.

A real knight was not far from him.

Tristan was stunned and smiled.

The unwillingness in his heart just now had all disappeared.

Tristan calmed down completely and accepted the difference.

Marcus was still his student.

It was not bad to leave his shadow on Marcus's path.

"Okay, but I advise you to start to learn the low-level swordsmanship practice as soon as possible. With your current talent, the courses of knight apprentice are not worth mentioning."

Tristan calmed himself down and gave Marcus a suggestion.

If Marcus continued to stay as a knight apprentice, it would be a waste of his talent and time.

"Now keep holding this sword. You haven't figured out some parts of the space breaking. Let me teach you."

Tristan handed the sword to Marcus.

It was good to have his personal guidance.

Although he could practice by himself to make progress.

But it would be faster. Tristan's experience was valuable.

"From now on, send the sword out first."

Tristan snapped, with a serious look on his face.

Marcus held the sword and used the space breaking slash again.

Tristan stood beside him, staring at him.

"Here, your strength is useless. You should pay attention to the space breaking. Although it is a powerful sword move, you must control it in the process of using it, not let it control you."

Tristan reminded it when he found Marcus's irregular behavior.

He helped Marcus feel the change of strength.

The sword changed its direction in Marcus's hand.

It was smoother than before!

Marcus practiced more seriously.

Tristan didn't nod with satisfaction until he finished the whole space breaking slash.

"Now, I have handed over the space breaking slash to you. You should remember it. Remember to practice more after you go back."

"Okay, thank you, Mr. Tristan." Marcus nodded and expressed his gratitude.

"You're welcome. You can go back first. But remember to prepare for the sword skill exchange meeting two months later. There will be a lot of people attending. You can practice yourself there."

Tristan waved his hand and asked Marcus to leave.

The sword skill exchange meeting...

Two months wasn't a long time, but Marcus began to look forward to it.

These two months are reserved for him, to continue to improve himself.

In the future, he would try his best to show himself at the sword skill exchange meeting.

After Marcus left the office, Tristan smiled silently.

To witness the rise of such a genius.

He was really excited!

"Where are you going?"

"Yes. Don't you forget our agreement?"

Marcus left Tristan's office.

As soon as he walked into a forest, two men suddenly jumped out from the side and grabbed Marcus from the left and right.

"Watson, Parker, why are you here?"

Marcus smiled helplessly and looked at the two of them.

"Haven't we made an appointment? We can go out to relax after the examination."

Watson said seriously.

"Yes, we are waiting for you here. Violet Dream has come to the tavern. If you go too late, you won't be able to get it."

Parker said with a hopeful expression.

"What if I say I want to go back and have a rest now?"

Marcus looked at Watson and then at Parker.

His two friends wouldn't let him go so easily.

"That's not up to you. Let's take you to see something good. You can follow us..."

Watson winked at Parker. The two men exerted force to lift Marcus up.

"Let's go..."

The two of them burst into laughter. Marcus had no choice but to follow them.

At this moment.

In a dark room, there was a soft handmade carpet.

The candlestick next to him was lit up with a faint light, and the air was filled with a faint fragrance.

There were three bottles of the drug on the table, which were totally different from the ones sold in the shop at present.

A man in a black robe took the medicine,

He opened it and sniffed it carefully. Frowning, he shook his head and said, "This drug is indeed strange. Although it's only a low-level potion, its effect can double."

The man in a black robe said after checking it.

"This kind of drug has appeared in the market recently. Because of its appearance, many people no longer buy other drugs. The loss of our chamber of commerce was very fast."

The man sitting at the top said with a gloomy face.

"We have checked it, but we haven't found it yet. There are still many people paying attention to this batch of drugs."

The man in a black robe lowered his head.

Marcus's potion was so effective that it attracted many people's attention.

The chamber of commerce was also greatly shocked.

Such a conversation had happened several times in different forces.

In another room at the same time.

A boy with golden hair and several freckles on his face ran in with a bottle of medicine in his hand.

"I finally got what you asked me to buy."

He handed over the medicine to the man in front of him happily.

"Well done, little Riley."

The man who took the medicine smiled kindly, took out a gold coin, and handed it to him. "This is your reward."

"Thank you, Grandpa Todd. But I don't understand. You are a pharmacist. Why did you buy the medicine yourself?"

Riley opened his big eyes and asked curiously.

"Recently, many people have been discussing this drug and wanted to see what its difference is."

As soon as he finished speaking, Todd also drank the medicine, which was a bottle of medicine at the preliminary stage of speed.

He felt the change of his body.

If Marcus was there, he would have recognized him.

Isn't this the same person he lied to and recognized as his master before?
