"One Hundred and Eight Energy Reservoirs Cycling Technique... Damn! One Hundred and Eight Energy Reservoirs Cycling Technique..." Both envy and disappointment appeared on Fabreidis’ face, "If this were ten years ago... No! Even if it were five years ago, I would risk my life by letting go of all my warrior power and retrain using your technique to be able to do the things that I could never do in this life."

Qian Jin didn’t know how to respond, so he waited for Fabreidis’ next line quietly.

"We should talk more today." It seemed like Fabreidis had returned to his usual state as his eyes lit up again. "Do you know who your opponent is tomorrow?"

"Caeller’s nephew Cage," Qian Jin said a name that he only heard about.

"Then do you know about Cage’s other identity?" Fabreidis said slowly, one word at a time, "He is a bloodline warrior."

Qian Jin’s body shivered lightly as he heard that; he was getting a little bit excited. "Bloodline warriors! Bloodline Warriors! The group of warriors who stood at the top of the pyramid in the history of Zence Empire were mostly bloodline warriors! Moreover, the three people who stood at the very peak of that pyramid were three Ultimate Bloodline Warriors who could utilize the power in their bloodline to a degree where they could have an Ultimate Awakening.

Elf King Bloodline Warriors! Ares Bloodline Warriors! And the mysterious Trihead Golden Dragon Bloodline!

It was unavoidable for any warrior to become emotionally unstable when they were about to face bloodline warriors. Qian Jin was the same; he couldn’t help but become excited as well. However, the only difference he had from most ordinary warriors was that other ordinary warriors would get scared, but he only felt excitement and eagerness for battle!

"Bloodline warrior? Qian Jin was very battle hungry. "What bloodline? It doesn’t matter who he is and what bloodline he has, if he dares to try to take my woman. Huh...."

Rosella blushed as she peeked at Qian Jin secretly. She felt very happy and joyful; after all, when Qian Jin was talking with Cage, she felt like Qian Jin said those things just to counter him. But now, it was different since Qian Jin voluntarily admitted that they were together, so she felt like her heart was racing.

"Thunder Cat Bloodline, at the stage of Primary Awakening." Fabreidis thought about it and added, "I heard that he had awakened his bloodline about two years ago."

"Thunder Cat Bloodline?" Qian Jin recalled the description of this bloodline in a book. "Warriors with this bloodline are very fast in battles and have high and explosive strength. When these warriors go into their Bloodline Battle Form, their speed will be even faster and their strength will be even more explosive!"

Fabreidis just realized that the amount of knowledge that Qian Jin had was beyond his estimate. He didn’t expect Qian Jin to know the term that described the state bloodline warriors would be in once they unleashed and used their awakened bloodline powers – Bloodline Battle Form!

"The biggest difference between bloodline warriors and ordinary warriors is the advancing speed of their warrior power levels when they train." Qian Jin said with an envious tone, "They can climb levels a lot faster than regular warriors, and every time they get farther in their awakenings, they will obtain special ability when they go into their Bloodline Battle Form."

Fabreidis nodded as he listened to what Qian Jin was saying. He wanted to tell Qian Jin about the bloodline warriors so he would be more prepared, but it seemed like there was no need for that.

"Great! So what if he is a bloodline warrior? Although I don’t know why there would be a bloodline warrior in Cae Family," Qian Jin said coldly, "But since they are daring enough to kill the fatty Rollin and try to kill me, they should be ready to handle the consequences of their actions."

Fabreidis thought for a while and said, "What did you learn other than the One Hundred and Eight Energy Reservoir Cycling Technique?"

Qian Jin shook his head; other than the Eighteen Blade Elevating Strikes and Innumerable Shadow that could be used in combat, he only knew the Kun-Fighting Technique from Qian Family and the [Cut Tree Eight Strikes] from Oakland’s Warrior and Mage Academy. He didn’t even learn [Break Mountain Nine Chops] yet, and most of his fighting styles and strikes were from his experience from fighting Demon Beasts. They weren’t high level at all.

"Oh right." Fabreidis smiled as he saw Qian Jin’s expression, "You advanced from a Level 9 Warrior to a Level 9 Demon Fighter in less than two years. If you had time to practice and master some fighting techniques, then that would be really unbelievable."

Qian Jin didn’t know how to respond to that. He actually had time to go to the Warrior Power House in the Endless World to pick up one or two fighting techniques. But in his free time, he had to fit in several other subjects such as Blacksmithing, Pharmacy, and Mystic Pharmacy... he had no time to go in there to see what it had to offer.

"There is still some time until tomorrow." Fabreidis reached over and grabbed Qian Jin’s Zhanmadao as he said. He walked towards the backyards and continued, "Unfortunately, you are used to using this strange blade. My sword techniques aren’t suitable for you, but one of my friend’s [Seven Bloody Combat Strikes] suits you perfectly."

Fighting Techniques were created by warriors who participated in numerous battles. Fighting Techniques were pretty much a warrior’s experiences summarized and condensed into strikes. With the supplementation and help of warrior power, these strikes would deal a great amount of damage. One branch of fighting techniques that was very famous in Zence Empire was called Beast Fighting Techniques; they were created by warriors who studied and mimicked beasts’ and Demon Beasts’ fighting styles.

Since Beast Fighting Techniques were very well known and a lot of warriors learned them, they were considered weak and many warriors looked down on them. However, Qian Jin knew that if one mastered a Beast Fighting Technique, he or she would definitely be able to become very powerful! Qian Jin didn’t have the chance to learn much about them, but he decided to find some time to practice and consolidate all the key strikes from the Beast Fighting Techniques into his own style.

Fabreidis held the Zhanmadao with both of his hands as he stood in the middle of the backyard with his eyes closed. After some concentration, he suddenly opened his eyes. A murderous spirit gushed out of his body and rushed towards and mixed in with the blade. The warrior power instantly made the Zhanmadao buzz and shake with power.

All of the hairs on Qian Jin’s body immediately straightened; after all, from the deadly battles that he had engaged in, he knew that this [Seven Bloody Combat Strikes] was more powerful than he thought.

A horrifying atmosphere filled with grief and indignation arose in the backyard. Every time the Zhanmadao left a trace in the air, it gave Qian Jin the feeling that Fabreidis was trying to take the imaginary enemy’s life while completely risking him own, and he didn’t mind trading the enemy’s life with his own. Qian Jin felt like he was standing on a cruel battlefield that was filled with blood and the noise of metals colliding from just watching.

The night was approaching. Fabreidis had already finished demonstrating the fighting technique and was sitting on a wooden chair in the mourning hall, drinking tea.

Qian Jin on the other hand stood in the backyard. Although his body wasn’t moving at all, Fabreidis’ movements and presence during the demonstration was being replayed in his head over and over again. All of Qian Jin’s spirit and thoughts were completely concentrated on what was being replayed in his head. If other people didn’t pay attention to him, they would think that there was just a stone placed in the backyard.

Fabreidis looked up at the full moon that just rose in the sky. He lightly asked himself, "Will the Cae Family really be that honest? Will they wait until the time of the duel?"

"Mr. Glan, are you sure you are going to do that? Are you sure that both the mayor and Fabreidis won’t notice?" Caeller was sitting in a room that was lit up by an oil lamp. He asked Glan with a worrying tone, "They are both Demon Fighters."

Glan who was in a black leather armor walked towards the door with his long sword as he laughed and said, "Mr. Caeller, you are the principal of a Warrior and Mage Academy, but you don’t know too much about us Demon Fighters. Ever since I became a Demon Fighter five years ago, I’ve still kept up my diligent training. I gradually realized that Demon Fighters have different strengths and can be categorized into many levels."

"There are such things?" Caeller gasped as he pretended. He actually didn’t care about Glan too much. His nephew Cage was stronger than Glan, but since he felt like Qian Jin was also a Demon Fighter, he wanted to do something to ensure that his nephew won and deter other potential challengers. He was planning to send Glan to sneak in where Qian Jin was staying at and make Qian Jin use up a portion of his warrior power. Of course, it would be even better if Glan could severely injure Qian Jin without anyone knowing!

"Of course." Glan raised his head proudly as he said, "I have gotten further into the levels of Demon Fighters, and I’m confident that I can do so without anyone knowing. Therefore, you can just wait for my good news."

"That would be great!" Caeller clapped as he said, "Then I will wish for your success and prepare you a woman for your celebration."

"A woman?" Glan let out a cold humph habitually. With his palm opened wide and fingers pointing out, he said, "Five! Prepare me five women."

"Five?" Caeller pretended he was surprised and said, "You are going to battle with a Demon Fighter tonight, and your stamina will decrease..."

"Relax." Glan walked out of the room, but his cold voice filled with disdain sounded from afar, "I don’t need to use much of my strength to fight with a young Demon Fighter."

"Ninth Uncle..."

The back door to the room opened, and Caeller watched his nephew Cage enter the room. He sighed with a mixed emotion as he thought, "This little kid that looked very weak when he was young is completely different now that he has awakened the Thunder Cat Bloodline. Even his blonde hair turned into a brownish color that looks like a beast’s hair. Although he is still thin, he gives me the dangerous feeling as if he is a Demon Beast."

"Cage, you’re here." Caeller greeted as he stood up and gave his spot to the young man. He chose to sit down at a seat a bit further away subconsciously. Although he was a relative, when he sat close to Cage, he still had the feeling of being targeted by a beast.

Cage grabbed the teapot on the table. Without pouring the tea into a tea cup, he drank directly from the spout of the teapot. After he drank most of the tea, he asked, "Where is that garbage Glan?"

"Glan?" Caeller pointed at the other door and said with a rough smile on his face, "He just left to take care of some errands. Right, why are you here so early? Don’t you want to stay in the academy for a bit longer? All of the Cae Family’s hope is on you. The Screening Selection happening shortly will count as a springboard for any warrior."

"What’s the difference? It doesn’t matter where I stay." Cage leaned against the back of the chair and said without even looking at Caeller, "What can it teach me? Only real advanced academies can make me stronger. I heard that trash Glan challenged both Fabreidis and the Mayor?"

Caeller’s smile stiffened on his face for a second. In his mind, he was swearing at the warrior from his side who become a henchman of Cage’s. Although he didn’t know who, there must be someone. otherwise, Cage wouldn’t know about this event in such detail.

"Yeah." Caeller answered with an awkward smile: "Something minor, they are all Demon Fighters..."

"Yuck!" Cage spat onto the ground as he said: "Glan dares calling himself a Demon Fighter? This dumbass! Fabreidis, he is someone that I don’t even dare upsetting. How dare he? The title of Demon Fighter is ruined by idiots like him."

Caeller listened to Cage’s shouts without replying anything back; he was a little afraid of Cage. It wasn’t just because Cage might be the inheritor of Cae Family and might become the leader of the Family in the future; the beast like violent sensation coming off of Cage was also very terrifying and make him feel very uncomfortable.
