“Go and have a good rest,” Corripo could immediately tell what condition he was in and spoke looking at Chen Heng.
Chen Heng feebly nodded and did not try to push himself. He found a room and directly fell unconscious.
If it was anyone else, he would be worried if that person would try to do something to him while he was asleep.
However, he was completely at ease towards Corripo.
Not only was Corripo his teacher, but if Corripo also really wanted to do anything to Chen Heng, Chen Heng would not be able to stop him anyways.
As such, Chen Heng was naturally at ease towards such a person.
After waking up again, it was already getting dark.
It was dusk, and the last glimmers of sunlight fell on the ground, bringing with them a trace of warmth.
Outside the room, Corripo and Krudo had not left. It seemed that they had been standing guard outside to make sure of Chen Heng’s safety.
“How long did I sleep for?” Chen Heng walked out of the room and asked Krudo.
“It’s been half a day,” Krudo nodded before smiling, “If you kept sleeping, I would have had to go to your residence and tell Her Highness Verna to bring you back.”
“That would be quite the situation.” Chen Heng said as he laughed.
“How do you feel?” Corripo asked as he looked at Chen Heng.
“I feel great.” Chen Heng examined his body before replying.
After he had awakened his Life Seed, he felt that his body had become unprecedently strong, and he seemed to have boundless power.
Chen Heng could sense that after awakening his Life Seed, there seemed to be something near his heart; something that he could influence and control.
It was as if his heart had an extra organ attached to it. He could clearly sense that thing’s existence, and he could control it to a degree and even stimulate it.
Needless to say, this was his Life Seed, one of the most important things to a Knight.
Once a Knight stimulated their Life Seed, their power would skyrocket for a short period of time to a terrifying level.
Of course, the cost was also extremely terrifying.
If a Knight excessively ignited their life energy, there would be all kinds of problems.
If that happened, a reduction in lifespan would be a light consequence; the worst case scenario was that they could become crippled.
“Come.”
Looking at Chen Heng, Corripo walked over and brought him to the training ground outside.
Under the remaining sunlight as dusk fell, he tossed Chen Heng a sword and indicated for him to attack.
“Use your full strength; no need to hold back,” he said calmly.
Chen Heng nodded and did not hesitate to leap up and rush forwards.
His speed was very fast; after awakening his Life Seed, he felt that his body had gone through massive changes, and both his speed and strength had greatly increased.
If an ordinary person looked over, they would be unable to clearly see his specific movements and only be able to see blurs.
The silver sword slashed downwards, bringing with it an intense sword wind as he slashed towards Corripo.
Bang!
At the key moment, Corripo raised his hand and lifted up a black sword, blocking this strike.
This was evidently a strike that could instantly kill a tiger, but against him, it did not seem like much. He easily received it, and his body did not budge at all.
Chen Heng was not surprised and once again advanced and slashed downwards.
Their swords continuously clashed, becoming faster and faster.
However, no matter how fast Chen Heng was, Corripo could easily follow him, easily blocking his attacks.
At first, their exchanges were still on a level that Krudo could follow, but as they went on, Krudo’s expression began to become unsightly.
By now, Chen Heng was no longer holding back and used his full power.
Each strike was extremely powerful, and they could give anyone a massive fright.
At the very least, as Krudo reflected to himself, he had to admit that if Chen Heng’s opponent was not Corripo but himself, he would not be able to receive even a casual blow from Chen Heng.
“Is the gap between us really so big?” he inwardly sighed, feeling quite depressed.
He and Chen Heng had become Corripo’s students at around the same time. In fact, he had received some training since he was young, and he was definitely ahead of Chen Heng when they had both started Knight training.
It was just that there was now such a big gap between them.
However, despite feeling dispirited, he still felt quite happy.
After all, Chen Heng was his friend, and their relationship had always been very good.
Looking at Chen Heng’s performance, he felt happy for him.
In a sense, the stronger Chen Heng became, the better it would be for him as well.
Thinking to there, Krudo calmed himself down and continued to spectate the battle.
As time went on, the battle between the two people had become even more intense.
Chen Heng’s speed was incredible, and every attack he launched came from a difficult angle, making them hard to defend against.
These were the skills he had gained through all of his experiences, making it difficult for his opponent to defend.
However, to Corripo, they were not a big deal.
He continued to calmly stand there, and no matter how Chen Heng attacked, his gaze was calm as he easily blocked.
After a while, the two of them stopped with an unspoken agreement and did not continue to attack.
“So it’s just like before,” Chen Heng sighed as he smiled, “No matter how I attack, I can’t make teacher become serious.”
“That’s only for now,” Corripo said as he shook his head, “You only just awakened your Life Seed and there is still much room for growth. After you go back and rest, and settle into this new state, it won’t be so easy for me to deal with you.
“When that time comes, if you stimulate your Life Seed, it would be difficult for even me to easily take you down.”
Hearing this, Chen Heng only smiled and did not say anything else.
Even though it would be difficult for Corripo to easily take him down, he could still take him down without too much problem.
And that was only in his normal state.
As a top-tier Knight, the power that Corripo would obtain from stimulating his Life Seed would be far greater than what he would obtain.
“In actuality, you are already very powerful,” Corripo said as he looked at Chen Heng with a sincere gaze, “With your strength, very few ordinary Knights would be a match for you. In the entire Kutu Principality, apart from me, there are barely any people who would be able to defeat you in a direct confrontation.”
