Chapter 525: Chapter 371: Beyond Top-level_4

The hunchbacked old man kneeled outside the stone door, knocking his head heavily on a piece of the blue brick. The blue brick cracked, and the sound traveled far and wide.

After a moment, a voice that seemed to have just awakened from a deep slumber came through the stone door: "What’s the matter?"

"Lord," the hunchbacked old man said with slight excitement, "The person you are looking for may have appeared!"

"Speak!" The breath surged like a storm.

...

Owen Bertram had a good sleep, and when he woke up, the five sword techniques were silent again. He walked out of the third and a half floor, looked back and saw that the staircase had returned to normal.

He went down the tower and called out on the first floor: "Senior?"

The hunchbacked man’s voice came, "Get out."

Owen Bertram left with a pout.

Outside, a military officer from the general government office was waiting, who took him out the same way. On the way, Owen Bertram asked, "How long was I inside?"

The officer replied, "Three and a half days."

When Owen Bertram returned to his residence, Verna was pouting in anger. Elder brother had been gone for several days without a word! Owen Bertram spent a while coaxing his sister.

Fortunately, the third stage assessment hadn’t begun yet. If it was delayed because of being in the Rewarding Merits Tower, it would be ridiculous.

Now in the area of sword skills, Owen Bertram felt extremely confident. Not to mention among his peers, even among his seniors, there were few who could compare with him.

But he also understood that although these flying sword techniques had been practiced, he was still far away from truly understanding their mysteries. In the future, he must practice continuously and improve in real combat to reach the "proficient" level.

To cultivate a flying sword technique, especially one as profound as this, to the "mastery" level, it was not just about hard work. It required one’s own aptitude and some unknown opportunities.

"It’s rare for Lord Dunn to be so generous," Owen Bertram thought gratefully but somewhat discontentedly, "but couldn’t he go the whole hog and give me a high-level flying sword or at least hint at where to find one?"

But on second thought, it might not be that Adonis Dunn wasn’t generous enough, but that he didn’t expect Owen Bertram to want to change swords.

Abner Lane and Adonis Dunn should know that he possessed a flying sword.

In the evening, Andrew Oamond came again. He learned that Mr. Bertram had come out of the Rewarding Merits Tower.

As soon as he saw Owen Bertram, Andrew Oamond gave him a thumbs up: "It Seems that Mr. Bertram had made significant gains in the Rewarding Merits Tower. The Sword intent is condensed but unreleased, restrained but unrestrained, and great progress in the Sword Dao has been made."

After exchanging modest pleasantries, Owen Bertram asked, "Mr. Oamond, is there any place in the capital where I can get a high-level flying sword?"

If he couldn’t find a suitable flying sword, he might have to borrow an ancient sword from the Divine Heavenly Soldier for the third stage assessment.

Andrew Oamond said, "Aren’t we near a good place right now? The Eden Cave."

Owen Bertram gave a bitter smile. The third stage assessment in Eden Cave had a low probability of obtaining the acknowledgement of ancient sword artifacts. However, in the history of Merton Academy, only nineteen scholars had really taken away ancient sword artifacts from the cave.

It sounded like a lot, but in reality, there had been at least hundreds of scholars entering the Academy for training and assessment every year before Merton Academy declined. In thousands of years, only nineteen of them had been lucky enough... Even if Owen Bertram had confidence in himself, he didn’t dare to hope that he would find a good sword the moment he entered the cave.

So he wanted to prepare one in advance, preferably one that Brother could "reforge".

Andrew Oamond understood his smile. He waved his hand and said, "In my opinion, reopening the Eden Cave is a great opportunity for Mr. Bertram!

Neither early nor late, but opened on its own just as Mr. Bertram came to participate in the Dragon and Snake List. Moreover, with Mr. Bertram’s aptitude, if he can’t get the recognition of the ancient sword artifact, then the other cultivators in this Dragon and Snake List have even less qualification."
