The Rise of the Black Plain-Novel

Chapter 433: Updates 1

At this time, two people were fighting in a place where the Spatial Kingdom fighting stage was located.

Between these two people, one of them was a blonde woman wearing silver armor. The other was a shirtless man, muscly and with a red glow in his fists.

Pow!

The man then punched the air hard, flexing a large part of his body, as he tried to release as much power as possible in this attack. Then, quickly, he created a strong current of air aimed at that woman's chest.

However, the difference in strength between these two was not slight!

This man tried his best to hit his opponent for the first time in this fight, which was already over 5 minutes.

And as expected, once again, that blonde woman had dodged this man's attack...

"You rely a lot on your innate ability, Elmer. At this rate, you'll never be able to beat an opponent faster than you!" She said with a smile on her face, just before running towards that man.

And when she was only three meters away from this drenched man, she swung her legs in the air until she landed a hard kick to the chest of her adversary.

Pow!

"Ahhhh!" He screamed in pain as he spat blood and was thrown off that stage.

The blonde woman then smiled once more as she looked to the side of that stage, where another 19 people were sitting on the floor, looking towards her.

"Grym, you're next..." She said, pointing to one of those people.

"Even though you're only at level 42, your innate skill is much more effective against opponents with my characteristics. But be careful. The difference in our levels is not small!"

"OK."

After that, another round of fighting quickly started on that stage, in the middle of the Spatial Kingdom forest. As for their identities and why these people were in this place, well, that was really simple.

These 19 people and the individual who had been defeated previously were the 20 soldiers of the Black Plain Army, selected for the Elite Squad!

After months traveling through the Kingdom of the Waves, Minos returned to the Black Plain. Shortly after that, the competition for these 20 spots from this squad took place in the local army.

With that, as promised by the previous advertisement, the people who were part of this unique group had been taken to a special place where they could cultivate more quickly.

And, of course, each one of them earned the right to learn Silver-grade techniques!

After being brought to the Spatial Kingdom, these soldiers had been there for about a year. At that time, the weakest in the group was only at level 40, while the strongest was at level 44.

However, after a year of training with techniques, resources, and a more suitable location, these people had significantly increased their strength. As a result, their weakest was now at level 42, while the strongest ones were at level 46!

Among the most notable individuals in this group were Sergeants Peter, level 45, Pyke, level 46, Robin, level 45, Barbara, level 46.

They all had managed to join the Elite Squad through selection and were very pleased with their developments in the Spatial Kingdom. With Silver-grade technique and their current levels, most of this group of 20 Spiritual Generals were already so strong that they could fight against standard Spiritual Kings at level 50!

Of course, most of them at most could fight for a draw. Still, individuals like Pyke and Barbara already had full capabilities to win and even kill common-level 50 opponents.

Anyway, the person with whom these soldiers were exchanging hands at that moment was none other than the young Elena, who had also decided to join Minos' army after having stayed in the Dry City for almost a year, during the local sovereign's trip.

Upon this young man's return, she decided to allow her bodyguard, Ernest, to join Minos' forces while she did the same. Elena desired to develop into a mighty warrior, and upon seeing the potential of this location up close, she realized that this was the ideal environment for her to do so.

Because of this, she had decided to stay in this region, even after Elen returned to Stone Island more than ten months ago.

Finally, after spending months in Minos' army, Elena had reached level 49 and become one of the instructors of the elite squad.

Besides her, other people were also related to the teaching of these elite soldiers. Among them were Eda, who had already reached level 51, Eduard, level 51, Ernest, level 50.

Just before Elen returned to Stone Island, she had authorized Eduard to join the local army. At that time, Minos had made the same offer to that young woman from the Nash family. However, she had refused.

As a merchant, Elen could earn millions of crystals doing business with Minos. In contrast, as a subordinate, she would at most have to see those crystals go to the Nash family and not to herself...

And even though the idea hadn't been so bad, and somehow Minos hadn't offered something that would restrict her, Elen enjoyed being a merchant. She had learned combat-focused techniques, but she didn't like fighting.

For that, and also for the financial factor… Elen had refused Minos' offer.

But Elen didn't think she'd lose too much from it... She had already cultivated to level 49 herself before leaving Dry City 10 months ago!

She was confident of moving up to the next stage very soon!

Her Nash family had a Silver-grade cultivation technique, and because of that, she felt she could make advances as easily as Minos' soldiers who trained techniques of the same rank.

In any case, in addition to the soldiers who were currently training with Elena, other people were sitting in various locations throughout the Spatial Kingdom, near the lake house, cultivating or conversing.

Of those people, there were Ernest and Eda, who were in their time of training and cultivation in this location, in addition to the two youths, Lee and Alison.

These two had improved a lot since the beginning of Minos' journey to the Kingdom of the Waves, and by this time, they had both reached level 40!

They were getting stronger and stronger and were already taking on various responsibilities within Minos' organization. However, what was most striking about these two was the physical change they had gone through.

Both had already left their childhood imprints behind and were now looking more and more like young adults, just a few months away from becoming adults.

Alison had grown up very well. She was already considered beautiful, with unique contours, which made her friend, Lee, observe her more and more and in a somewhat different way...

As for Lee, he had become a tall, muscular young man who already had a lot of hair covering his beard, to the point where he looked like five years older just because of that!

Anyway, these two youths were doing very well and were already starting to feel interested in different things. For example, Alison no longer played like a child with Kyla and slowly thought of ideas like passion, etc.

But that was to be expected. She and Lee were approaching early adulthood and couldn't help but exhibit some behavioral changes related to physical transformations caused by their bodies' development.

Nor would it be ideal if it remained the same as before. After all, Kyla, level 38, was now about 2 meters tall and several times bigger than Alison. Consequently, this Nine-Tailed Fox's young friend could no longer interact with her in the same way as before.

But they were both good friends and often trained together, which was something very much appreciated by Kyla!

Finally, in addition to these humans and the young fox cultivating in this location, Emlyn was looking around the area from atop one of the largest trees in the Spatial Kingdom.

'Ahh, this place is way livelier than before….' Emlyn thought to herself, with an expression that looked quite satisfied.
