He slowly calmed himself down. This happens when the strength increases.
This is the reason why some people who practice martial arts think they are high above others. Their egos inflated, not being able to see the world with clear eyes.
This cannot be blamed, human nature is like this. A mortal without any extraordinary power, if he tastes the feeling of staying in high position. He will start to look down on ordinary people.
So, Luis calmed himself down. Only those people with strong will and a calm mentality can reach the top.
"I hope these both can be combined perfectly."
He began taking coordinated breaths. It was the breathing method that would awaken and nourish the life seed. The better the breathing method, the higher foundation one will have.
He used Eagle Breathing, which is a medium-level breathing method among all the breathing methods in the kingdom.
Along with the breathing, he began moving his body awkwardly. At the beginning, it was difficult to coordinate martial arts training and knight training. The brain would say follow, but the body won't just do it.
After several minutes, he got a hang of it and slowly practiced both simultaneously. At first, both life seed and strengthened blood were working at their own pace, both strengthening the body.
Then suddenly a change occurred, if you see inside his body. A green light was floating in the center of his heart. A faint light was spreading and illuminating the blood. The blood from the heart was then transported all around the body.
This was slowly changing the attributes of the body, but Luis felt violent changes. He could feel the blood travel everywhere, it felt both cool and hot.
The defense of his body was very strong now, but the important thing was his calm mind.
"This really is compatible. My thoughts were not distorted," he murmured as steam came out of his mouth.
"Now if I fight Cai Tian again, I can defeat him within 5 moves."
He began running around on the training ground with full strength for 10 minutes. He didn't feel tired at all. His body was still full of energy.
It seemed that the life seed mutated in his body, providing strength directly to the blood.
"I will definitely become strong, but I'll make sure my family grows stronger with me. I don't want to reach the peak and become lonely with no one behind me."
He has already felt now that he will enter 1st level knight within 5 days.
----
After finishing his practice, he began making his way towards the parade ground. It is already midday, and there should be a lot fewer people in there right now.
Arriving at the parade ground, he spotted a dozen young men practicing. Their body was full of sweat.
"Fortunately, I didn't choose the wrong people," Luis murmured to himself, observing all the familiar faces in the parade ground.
The dozen young men practicing here were his cousins and sons of family knights. If you are a knight of Hartmann Barony and you have a son, the Hartmann family will train them till the age of 18. If they can awaken life seed before the age of 18, they will be trained properly with better resources.
In the parade ground, there was Arthur, his cousin, the son of Oliver, along with the other 11 people who were the sons of Family Knight.
They were around the age of 15–17. Luis had other followers too, but they already crossed the age of 18 and were sent to the surrounding ten towns to act as militiamen. If they awaken the life seed in the future, they can be again taken in as family knights.
Luis will help them to awaken life seeds later. The criteria for becoming his close follower are obedience and great preservation. There are not many people with these attributes that Luis can cultivate.
"Hey Luis, where have you been these days?" Arthur shouted, looking in the direction of Louis.
Others also straightened their chests after knowing that Luis arrived today.
"Follow me everyone," Luis, who just arrived in parade grounds, walked out again.
"What?" Arthur became confused at all of this, but he followed Luis obediently.
The others, also confused, started following Luis, who was heading outside.
"Do you know where we are going?"
"Just shut up and follow. How would I know?"
"It must be something good, look around, we are all the followers of the young master."
"No, we cannot be said to be true followers. We have not recited the oath yet."
"Once you say the oath, you cannot betray the young master even if you want to."
"What nonsense are you guys talking about? Are you trying to be rebellious? Do you want to betray?"
"No, I would never betray young master."
"Me too"
"..."
Luis, who was walking forward, heard all the murmurs of these people following him. Oath is a special power in this world. When spoken out, it forms a special restriction on the body. It is said that the contract and oath are the special laws controlled by the God of Contract.
In this continent there are legends of gods, but it has been tens of thousands of years since a god miracle has appeared in this land.
The temples and churches, which used to be high and mighty, were torn down by the nobles, regaining full control of their land. Even if all of these churches were destroyed, there was no interference from God.
Now what remained were the contracts, oaths, and other things that make people not forget about gods.
There are also secret cults on this continent that conduct rituals and sacrifice a lot of people, hoping it will awaken god and bless them with divine might. But it has not been successful till now.
The powers that live on this huge continent are many races, which have divided their own lands.
Orcs ruled the North, Humans dominated the East, and Elves flourished in the West. However, only in the south there is no clear dominant race, so it is called the land of slaughter, where a lot of bodies are buried every day. The most slaughtered being goblins.
