Yazhongji followed Priest Palmer into the empty lobby. From Yazhongji's point of view, this building was obviously much more magnificent than the Longcheng City Lord's Mansion. Those beautiful stained glass always reminded him of the color of the strange crystal on the Houkai beast.

"Remember what I told you just now?" asked Reverend Palmer in a low voice.

"Remember, try to express yourself and defeat all enemies that appear in front of you."

Priest Palmer patted Yaeji on the shoulder, and said softly, "Don't put too much pressure on me. Even if other troops don't want you, the Valkyrie troops will open the door to you. When the time comes..."

Yaeji nodded, how could he not understand what Palmer meant? It was nothing more than to show his kindness to him first. Although he didn't get along with Lan Yuan EMI for a long time, chatting with this little princess in the big city taught him a lot of tricks.

"Tat-tat-tat~"

The sound of footsteps sounded loose from around the corner, and a group of strong men in wallets walked in.

"What? Valkyrie is good at fighting against Honkai, but our knight team is not much worse than them. Five of us besieged one of her?"

"Isn't she too young?"

"Could it be that the order from above was wrong?"

At this time, on the second floor, where the viewing platform was suspected, a bearded man in steel armor turned black and turned to face the majestic archbishop on the main seat.

Bowing slightly, he said respectfully, "Master Bishop, this team is out on missions all year round, so it's not that strict in character."

"No problem." The majestic voice came, and the archbishop seemed to be in a good mood. "Isn't it written in their files that they can handle the Houkai incident independently?"

"Yes." The bearded beard said without hesitation: "The recent collapse of the Maidan branch, after their team finished dealing with it, the Valkyrie troops came late."

"Very good." The archbishop nodded, "These people still have some resistance against the Houkai, and they can deal with the Houkai incident appropriately in the future."

"yes!"

"Lynne." The archbishop looked at a woman, "Your files show that Yaeji has the ability to handle the Houkai incident independently. What do you think of this?"

"I believe in every Valkyrie under my command!"

"Then if the two of them compete, who do you think will win?"

"Yes! I guess the Cavaliers team has a high probability of winning! Because Yaeji is only 13 years old now, and there is still a long period of time before his potential bursts."

"Oh? You are very optimistic about that child?"

"Yes!" The woman said respectfully, "If the head of the Maidan branch doesn't like Yaeji, our Valkyrie army is very happy to eliminate a competitor in advance."

Several other people stood aside and did not intend to interrupt, their eyes scanned Yaeji and the knight team back and forth.

If Yaeji looked up, he might see the familiar golden retriever.

With a cloth strip wrapped around his left arm and hanging around his neck, Ned was standing beside the archbishop, his eyes full of curiosity.

The archbishop stared ahead, "Before the discussion begins, let me share your guesses."

The man with a thin figure and a feminine demeanor said, "Master Bishop, I have the same opinion as Your Excellency Lynn."

The bald man with a height of two meters and a wound running through half of his big face said in a muffled voice, "I am against the Knights, but we need a newcomer with full potential in our branch in Vernor."

"Heh~" The middle-aged man with pale hair and full of gentlemanly demeanor said, "I have the same opinion as Your Excellency Lynn, but our Spanish branch also needs a newcomer with great potential."

The people present had almost said what they said, and Ned was so excited that he almost jumped out and shouted his thoughts.

The archbishop felt helpless, he was still not very optimistic about his son.

"Okay, Ned, tell me your opinion."

"Yes! I think Yaeji can win this duel."

"oh?"

Now everyone present became interested, and they all looked at the useless son of the archbishop's family.

"Give me a reason."

"There's no reason, it's my intuition!" Ned said with fiery eyes.

Everyone immediately lost interest.

"Let them start to learn from each other." The archbishop was also a little disappointed, and ordered to the people at the front.

"yes!"

...

After Priest Palmer finished explaining, the five-member knight team restrained their disdain.

Five adults and one frail child. From the perspective of ordinary people, no matter how you look at it, it will be those five strong men who hang up the child and beat him up.

Yazhongji stood obediently on the spot, but looked back and forth at the five strong men, analyzing them one by one.

He showed his weakness in the image, and he could quickly solve the two of them by virtue of their psychological factors.

"Hey! Boy, is that right? You look like a girl, why don't you just go to the Valkyrie Army?"

"Hahaha, little girl, you'd better choose an armor that can wrap you like a turtle! Seeing how delicate you are, I can't bear to do anything cruel."

"quiet!"

The man suspected of being the captain shouted, and the other four immediately changed their appearance.

The captain stared straight at Yaeji, and said, "Since the higher-ups have arranged for us to fight against you, I will treat you as an opponent of the same level. Kid, go pick out your weapons and protective gear first."

Yaeji glanced at the weapons and protective gear prepared on the side, and asked Palmer, "Priest, are there any weapons like gloves here?"

"Gloves?" Palmer was slightly stunned. He remembered that in the file, Yazhongji obviously used a long knife!

"Wait first."

Reverend Palmer walked away quickly.

The captain was still staring at Yaeji: "Boy, don't you want to choose protective gear?"

Yaeji shook his head, "I'm not used to wearing protective gear."

The captain nodded and shouted back: "All of you, take off your armor and throw it aside!"

"Yes!" x4

The strong men moved quickly, removed their wallets and threw them aside.

The captain turned his head, "Since you are using boxing gloves, our brothers will not take advantage of you. We will fight you with bare hands, and then don't say that our brothers bully you."

"Thank you." Ya Chongji said briefly.

After a while, Priest Palmer arrived with a bunch of things that looked like gloves.

Yaeji went to the side to choose.

The armguards of the armor are too big to be used. A finger-wrapping ring with spikes, too large to...

It was difficult for Yae Ji to choose the right gloves in it.

In the end he chose a pair of elastic iron sand gloves.

The inside of the glove is covered with a soft substance that looks like a sponge, and the outside is covered with a dense layer of iron sand.

Slightly larger, it looks like a disposable item, like a toy made by some idle weapon apprentice.

"Have you chosen?" the knight captain asked.

"Um."

"Aren't you thinking about something else?"

"That's all."

"Okay. Priest, please announce the time for the sparring."

Palmer nodded, and after counting slowly, made a start gesture.

Neither side made the first move.

Yazhongji stared at the cavalry captain, but from the corner of his eye, he was looking at the others.

Three of the burly men lost interest until one yawned.

Yaeji moved!
