When Joan of Arc heard Odygus's statement, he was so shocked that he widened his eyes. His fist? Someone actually chose to use his fist when facing the ancient dragon? And what fist is it that can exert the power of magic over level 8?

"But this shape obviously has something like a corner..." Joan of Arc pointed to the pit on the fist, and Odygus nodded: "It is these that mislead our judgment. Now it seems that this should be some kind of special finger tiger."

"Even if you can break the scales of the ancient dragon with a magic weapon!" Joan of Arc frowned and said, "But how to explain the one behind the broken scales. I have analyzed it before. Behind each broken scale, there are huge internal bleeding and bruises, and the most serious ones, there are even signs of bone breakage... If the ancient dragon is broken, it is simply an effect that can only be achieved by the forbidden spell!"

"It's hard to explain how to kill the ancient dragon..." Odygus shook his head and said, "Maybe only by finding these mysterious heroes can we get the real answer... Fortunately, we have a third clue, which is not as ambiguous as the first two, but the direction is very clear!"

As he said that, Odygus took out a long cloth bag and opened it, revealing a sharp sword that was obviously in the oriental style. Its edge was three feet long and the handle was eight inches long. The hilt and swallowing mouth were carved into a blue dragon. The whole sword body was in the shape of a blue dragon breathing.

"This is..." Seeing the sharp blade without a trace of gap, Joan of Arc said in surprise: "This is also a weapon that survived the battle?"

"To be precise, it didn't survive!" Odygus smiled, "When we picked it up, the sword body was broken and damaged. We originally planned to wait for a while to repair it, but unexpectedly, after a month, when we found it, the sword body was completely renewed and we could not see any damage!"

"Self-healing?!" Joan of Arc's eyes turned: "Is it the agave-tongued sword made of soft iron and Nirvana steel? I heard that this sword can repair itself and there is no need to worry about the broken blade, so the blade angle is very small, the sword body is thin and extremely sharp. Also, because of the addition of soft iron, the sword spine is extremely flexible, and even if the blade edge collapses, it will not break..."

"Not bad!" Odygus nodded: "But the most important thing is that the master of this sword can be found!"

Joan of Arc's eyes lit up: "You mean, Nine Dragon Sword Saint, Nangong Yu?"

"That's right!" The person who spoke was Mr. Geerkin: "Joan of Arc, the Xuanyang City of the primitive continent where your War Academy went to trial this time was under the jurisdiction of Xiaoyu. I heard that not long ago, Xiaoyu's sword-like dragon tongue was lost. It is very likely that among the dragon-slaying warriors you mentioned, there is Xiaoyu!"

Although Gerkin is not a person from the Temple, there is no need to hide the dragon slaying from him. As a legendary wizard, Gerkin knows the power of the ancient dragon. More than 20 paladins want to kill Dagulas? It is lucky to be able to escape back both of them alive. It is okay for the temple to deceive ordinary people, but it can't hide it from such a powerful man.

It can be said that the mysterious dragon-slaying hero is already an open secret in the circle of top strong people in the mainland.

"Thank you, Principal!" Although Joan of Arc had long been famous for the Nine Dragon Sword Saint, he had never had the opportunity to visit. This time the principal specially arranged Xuanyang City as a trial location, obviously to facilitate Joan of Arc's investigation.

Odygus also nodded: "As for this broken steel sword, it was preserved by the royal family of the Lion Heart Empire before it disappeared a hundred years ago. Now that it is seen again, it is natural that things should return to the original owner."

"However, in order to find out the possible dragon-slaying warriors, the temple has negotiated with the Lionheart Royal Family and plans to hold a sword test meeting in a few days to warn warriors all over the world to make Duan Gang recognize his master, and perhaps one of the dragon-slaying warriors can be found."

"That's great!" Joan of Arc hoped to meet the dragon-slaying warriors.

Odygus nodded: "And you take this opportunity to take this sword to Nangong Yu to see what he has to say!"

Joan of Arc nodded, put away the sword of the dragon tongue, and exchanged a few more words with the two seniors, then set out to prepare for the trial.

After Joan of Arc left, Odygus asked Gelkin: "What do you think of this group of mysterious dragon-slaying warriors?"

Gerkin touched his beard and squinted his eyes and said, "I think this is quite strange. As you said, except for Dragon Breath, only a magic trace of level 8 lightning was found at the scene. Most of the wounds on the ancient dragon were caused by physical means... Odygus, you should be clear about the gap between human warriors and ancient dragons. It is not a gap that can be filled by quantity. Even if it is a team composed of swordsmans and paladins, if there is no absolutely powerful existence, it is impossible to defeat the ancient dragon!"

"You mean..." Odygus narrowed his eyes.

"In this world, the sword saint and the paladin may no longer represent the supreme of warriors!"

On October 30, 1257, after several days of preparation, the students of the War Academy finally ushered in the long-awaited trial.

There were 38 people in the magic department, 78 people in the warrior department, plus 6 exchange students, 6 mentors, and Joan of Arc, who led the team, a total of 128 people gathered in front of the magic tower of Dean Gelkin.

Dean Gerkin, known as the "controller of time and space", is naturally the magic of time and space. Legend has it that he can stop time, even see what happened in the past and the future, and communicate with all things. The most well-known of his many supernatural powers is teleportation magic!

Moving people or objects from one place to another is a very advanced technique, which usually requires powerful magic to be used. The number of people that can be transmitted at each cast depends entirely on the mage's attainment.

Generally speaking, those who practice space-time magic will be able to teleport objects after obtaining the title of formal magician. When they reach the realm of a high-level mage, they can generally teleport live objects. Respected great magicians can usually teleport several or even dozens of people. To conduct a large number of teleportation of more than a hundred people, there is only the peak of space-time magic, which Gerkin, the controller of space-time, can do!

According to records, Gerkin had the most successful teleportation, which was to accurately move 550 people to a place more than ten kilometers away!

But even a powerful legendary wizard can only conduct close-range teleportation, and to teleport from one continent to another, whether it is magic or precise requirements, it is not as capable as human power, and can only rely on the assistance of the teleportation array.

However, in addition to consuming a lot of financial and material resources, the establishment of a teleportation array also requires experts to make exquisite designs and select appropriate addresses. In particular, the intercontinental teleportation array that can span thousands of kilometers is extremely difficult to build.

Let me put it this way, among the several continents, there are only a few large teleportation arrays established by humans together. Moreover, because the number of people and materials that can be transmitted is very limited, each teleportation is not expensive, so apart from some emergency situations, this giant teleportation array is rarely used. Most of the time, due to various restrictions, people still tend to move long distances by ships and airships.
