Rosen Fluorescent Spore spat out a mouthful of tea, spraying it all over the butler’s face, “What did you say, Russell knocked Marcus down?”

The butler, with an impassive face, wiped off his face and said, “Yes, that’s what the knights outside are saying. Mr. Russel defeated Lord Markus with the Four-Sword Style, and some say even Mr. Ross was astonished.”

“Even Mr. Ross was astonished?” Rosen laughed angrily, “Which knight dares to spread such tales about Mr. Ross?”

“Sir, but it seems the knights are certain, indeed Mr. Russel has defeated Lord Markus.”

“Call the knight over, I want to ask him myself!” Rosen insisted unbelievingly.

He knew very well the extent of Marcus’s strength; as a seasoned Phantom Beast Knight himself, he could not last long against Marcus.

Russell had only been promoted to a Phantom Beast Knight for less than a year, how could he possibly defeat Marcus.

However, after questioning several knights, all of them confirmed with absolute certainty that it was true, and they had personally witnessed the event.

“Sir, you did not see it, Mr. Russel’s Four-Sword Style was so powerful that it almost destroyed the entire battlefield. I had never seen anyone release sword energy from their tiptoes. No doubt Mr. Russel is a knight who has caught the attention of the Great Dragon!”

Upon hearing this,

Rosen had to believe that this was indeed a fact; the inexperienced Russell had indeed defeated Marcus, a second-tier high-ranking Mythical Beast Knight, in a head-on confrontation.

“No, I must go to Fluorescent Castle and ask Roland!” Rosen could sit still no longer.

Just as he finished changing his clothes to leave, Lady Ingrid saw him, “Rosen, where are you off to in such a hurry?”

“Mother, something incredible has happened,” Rosen said briefly. “At noon, Russell dueled Marcus and actually defeated him. I have to go to Fluorescent Castle to ask Roland; he witnessed the entire duel.”

“What, Russell defeated Marcus?” Lady Ingrid exclaimed in surprise.

In her youth, she, too, had cultivated a Qi Seed; though now her Qi Seed had withered, and she was no different from an ordinary person, her insight was not shallow.

She immediately exclaimed, “How is that possible? What has our little Ghostfire eaten to become so fierce?”

“I won’t keep you any longer, mother, I’m going to find out what happened.”

“Wait, Rosen, I’ll go with you.” Just as restless, Lady Ingrid decided to accompany Rosen as he set out.

By the time mother and son arrived at Fluorescent Castle, Russell had not yet left and was instructing Roland in swordsmanship on the training ground.

Roland had long coveted the Three Swords Flow Grand Skill and the Four-Sword Style Mystique. Without the Sword Butterfly Amber Bug, he was destined not to be able to master the Four-Swords Flow Mystique. However, there was still hope for him to learn the Three Swords Flow Grand Skill, which is why he was pleading with Russell to teach him.

Previously, Roland had been defeated by Russell’s single sword, and having seen Russell’s even more formidable combat strength today, he was completely convinced,

and no longer arrogantly assumed the role of the eldest brother.

As a qualified noble heir, he knew how to weigh interests, and Roland’s mindset transitioned smoothly.

Willing to ask for instruction, Russell naturally was not stingy with his guidance.

For a time, harmony returned between the brothers, a sight that left Baron Roman and his wife deeply gratified.

“Grandmother, Uncle, what brings you here?” Russell put down his fine steel longsword and greeted Lady Ingrid and Uncle Rosen.

“Russell, you defeated Marcus?” Lady Ingrid went straight to the point, and upon receiving a positive response, she clasped her hands around her chin and prayed ceaselessly to the Shadowflame Dragon, “Great Dragon watch over us, light protect us, this is truly… the rise of the Ghostfire Family!”

Lady Meryl had already accompanied her husband out, and instinctively took distaste upon hearing Lady Ingrid mutter about the “Ghostfire Family.”

The name Ghostfire Family was a kind of jest, akin to giving someone a nickname.

She didn’t like others referring to the Fluorescent Fungi Family as the Ghostfire Family, but Lady Ingrid didn’t mind this at all. Instead, she took it as a self-designation, and would frequently call Roland, Russell, and the other children, “little ghostfires.”

“It’s the rise of the Fluorescent Fungi Family.” Lady Meryl replied with a faint smile.

Lady Ingrid immediately glanced at her daughter-in-law and laughed along, “It’s the same thing. With such remarkable ‘little ghostfires,’ the Ghostfire Family will become stronger and stronger, feared by others, just like the ghostfires feared by travellers at night.”

“What an odd description you’re using,” Baron Roman interrupted the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law conversation and looked at Roson, saying, “Why have you come, not staying at home to keep Clara company? Didn’t Meryl tell me Clara is pregnant again?”

“Fortunately, Clara is pregnant with the third child.” Roson smiled, “I came to inquire about the duel between Russell and Marcus.”

“Haha, I knew it, none of you could stay put,” Baron Roman said proudly.

In the end, it was Roland who vividly recounted the details of the battle between Russell and Marcus.

After listening, Lady Ingrid once again exclaimed with admiration that the family’s revival was hopeful, while Roson looked at Russell with curiosity in his eyes, “Russell, may your uncle feel the power of your Three Swords Flow Grand Skill, no, and also the Four Swords Flow Mystique?”

“There is no harm in that.” With a casual gesture from Russell, three fine steel longswords flew from the weapon rack, instantly unleashing the Three Swords Flow Grand Skill towards Uncle Roson.

Boom!

The next instant, Roson’s breath hitched, breaking out in a cold sweat at the shock of the Three Swords Flow Grand Skill. The net of sword rays that came at him gave him a sense of inescapable powerlessness.

Once Russell leaped up and kicked out sword rays with his feet, displaying the Four Swords Flow Mystique, Roson was even more stunned and took a long time to recover.

“Terrifying!” It took a while for Roson to shake off the shock from the Three Swords Flow Grand Skill and the Four Swords Flow Mystique, admiringly saying, “Although I didn’t get to duel personally, just one encounter tells me that an ordinary Mythical Beast Knight couldn’t block your sword.”

Baron Roman said, “Never mind the ordinary Mythical Beast Knights, even an old-branded 2nd level like Marcus couldn’t block it!”

Then Lady Meryl accompanied Lady Ingrid into the castle.

The father, son, and two nephews remained in the training field, with Russell explaining the techniques of the Three Swords Flow Grand Skill to them.

However, even though their swordsmanship couldn’t be considered sloppy, it was only average, and without the sensation brought by the Sword Butterfly Amber Bug, they couldn’t coordinate their left and right hands. Forget the Three Swords Flow Grand Skill—they couldn’t even perform the Dual Sword Style.

“Forget it, I’m not learning anymore; I can’t learn it,” Roson was the first to give up.

He knew his own limits: becoming a Mythical Beast Knight was already his ultimate achievement, and he was well past the age of pursuing strength.

Seeing his brother give up, Baron Roman quickly followed suit, for he was already a Flying Dragon Knight and paid little attention to mere sword skills, “You two brothers can slowly study it; I will accompany your uncle for a walk.”

In the end, only Roland was left, clinging to Russell for more than two hours, and he was still not satisfied, “Russell, next time I go to Blackwaist Serpent… Ah, probably have to go to a new place to find you. Anyway, you have to help your big brother master the Three Swords Flow Grand Skill.”

“If you’re willing to learn, I’m naturally willing to teach,” Russell said smilingly, “I’ve even thought about creating a new Battle Qi martial art called ‘The Art of the Three Swords Flow Grand Technique,’ but I haven’t started writing it yet.”

If it had been before, Roland would definitely have mocked Russell without a second thought for overestimating himself.

But now he took it seriously and nodded, “Learning while teaching would be ideal. As you teach me, you can concurrently systematize ‘The Art of the Three Swords Flow Grand Technique.’ I believe that this Battle Qi martial art will, sooner or later, become renowned alongside you throughout Shadowflame.”
