Chapter 1093 - Chapter 1093 Chapter 335 Advancing to Fifth Tier_3

Chapter 1093: Chapter 335: Advancing to Fifth Tier_3 Chapter 1093: Chapter 335: Advancing to Fifth Tier_3 Although he had guessed what was going on, he paused and gestured toward the distant sounds of battle, asking, “What’s happening over there?”

Alice said with a somewhat helpless tone, “It’s Mr. Aragon and Old Man Barre practicing. They’ve been at it for two days and two nights…”

Leonard Churchill’s eye twitched upon hearing this.

No wonder they chose such a secluded place to meet; a battle of this scale would level a city if it were to take place within one.

But then again, it seemed normal.

That martial arts fanatic Barre, when faced with a worthy opponent, definitely couldn’t resist the urge to spar.

At the same time, he was slightly surprised in his heart, “Old Man just advanced to the Seventh Grade, and he’s able to fight with Aragon for two days and two nights?”

Although Leonard had never seen Aragon’s full combat power, he had been exposed to a great deal of information about the Southern Continent when he disguised himself as an information merchant.

He was very clear that Aragon was at the top of the Wanted list in the Southern Continent as an S-level fugitive among Seventh-Order card masters.

And as a member of the “Hero” Sequence, his strength was top-notch even among his peers.

While Leonard also thought Barre was quite powerful, had he really reached that level so soon after advancing?

Hiss… Old Man truly was a martial arts prodigy unrivaled in a thousand years in the East Wilderness.

Since the fight wasn’t over yet, Leonard simply sat down on a rock.

Alice, sitting beside him, shared some picnic sweets she had made while saying, “Mr. Leonard Churchill, I’ve heard about your recent exploits… You really are impressive to have taken care of Salo like that.”

“…”

Leonard didn’t know how to respond and gave a wry laugh.

After all, the Red Dragon Nineteenth Prince Salo who died at his hands was actually Alice’s brother.

However, Alice’s mother was the Forest Witch, and aside from blood relations, she had little to do with the Royal Family.

With some special experiences, she now had no relation at all with the Red Dragon Royal Family.

Once they got to know each other, Alice became quite talkative.

They talked about various topics related to the Rune Highlands and about her experiences visiting the Alliance Army these days, always speaking highly of “Sister Kater.”

Leonard heard a lot about acquaintances, his face often breaking into a smile, occasionally responding while his mind constantly processed the knowledge from after his advancement.

Two hours later, the ruckus of the battle suddenly ceased.

The three people on the hillside looked over and finally saw two figures with tattered clothes walking out.

While both faces were etched with fatigue, they couldn’t hide a kind of exhilarated excitement.

Leonard looked over and murmured in surprise, “Old Man has reversed his aging?”

He recognized the smaller, older figure as Barre at a glance.

But Barre looked somewhat different from when he had last seen him.

Barre’s once completely white hair now had strands of black, his skin, formerly full of wrinkles, had also become much firmer.

What’s key was that his vitality and blood were as radiant and blazing as the midday sun, a stark contrast from the sunset-like feeling he exhibited before.

“There are such changes at the Seventh Grade?”

Leonard’s eyes shifted as he remembered a saying.

After advancing one’s Plane Rank to the “Demigod Fate,” one’s lifespan would increase significantly.

Like an eagle regenerating its beak, flesh and essence would leap to a new level.

Especially for the Air Skill Master profession in the Professional Sequence, which specializes in nurturing essence, the changes were particularly pronounced.

Leonard glanced at Barre and quickly turned his eyes to the burly, golden-haired man beside him.

With golden hair and a bright smile, “heroic” probably described this kind of looks.

If not for the two large bumps on his forehead, making him look slightly disheveled, his appearance would be quite good.

“So that’s what Aragon looks like…”

Leonard raised his eyebrows slightly; it was his first time seeing Aragon outside of his Toad State.

The two walked over, and Alice greeted them warmly, teasing upon seeing the lumps on Aragon’s forehead, “Aragon, are you okay?”

Aragon shook his head with a smile, “To be able to spar with Elder Barre is an honor. His understanding and realm of Martial Arts are the highest I’ve ever seen. I’ve learned a great deal. Thank you for the guidance, Elder.”

Barre replied, “You’re not bad either. Of the young people I’ve met over the years, you’re definitely one of the most accomplished. It’s the first time, in many years, that I’ve met a card master of the ‘Hero’ Sequence…”

Aragon laughed heartily, “Haha…”

Allen, with his innocent big eyes, curiously asked, “Mr. Aragon, who won?”

Leonard was also curious about this question.

At the question, a wry smile appeared on Aragon’s face as he said, “Elder Barre’s Martial Arts realm is much higher than mine. If it weren’t for the fact that I’ve been at the Seventh Grade much longer, I would have lost long ago…”

Barre did not deny this.

The Old Man was like that–never humble, speaking always without mincing words.

Aragon also hadn’t expected the East Wilderness to have such a formidable fighter, and he said with renewed awe, “But next time we meet, I definitely won’t be Elder’s opponent.”

…

Leonard watched the two approach and greeted them.

Barre nodded carelessly, glanced at the “Air” on Leonard’s body as if seeing through something, eyebrows jumping, he said, “Kid Leonard, you’ve advanced? Tsk tsk, seems pretty good, eh?”

Although Leonard himself felt good about it, he was not as thick-skinned as the Old Man and replied, “Yeah. Thanks to the Material Aragon gave me, I managed to advance by luck.”

Aragon, however, shook his head with a laugh and said, “Brother Leonard, for you to merge the Red Dragon Royal Family’s ‘Holy Dragon Iron Guard’ Golem Card, it’s not ‘luck’–it shows great personal strength. You are too modest…”
