Pioneer Lord: Starting From Daily Intelligence

After the lively banquet ended, Hilude set off with drunken Dwarves, peeping Half-Elves, and elderly Elven Druids.

This team hardly looked vigorous like dragons and tigers, and would be completely unqualified as an army. But as an adventure team, each indeed possessed their unique advantages.

Su Li could only hope that they would receive the blessing of their respective faiths, overcome dangers along the way, and return smoothly.

As they left, the Knights poured into the Lion Ring Arena with great excitement.

Never before had this town-level training ground been so lively; hundreds of Knights, nearly a thousand Dwarves, and Armed Attendants filled it to the brim.

The two strongest Knights in the Black Forest now engaged in an epic clash here.

Their battle started at ten in the evening and lasted until one in the morning. Nearly five hours of dueling, they fought fiercely!

Surprisingly, Constantine's bloodline was Thunder-Forged Divine Weapon!

This was indeed a remarkable bloodline, rumored to be from the Forbidden Guard Corps in the era of Human Emperor Redema.

Legends say Thunder-Forged warriors are surrounded by lightning, wielding the power of Celestial Realm storms, and born for war. They are the embodiment of the Divine King's will, a demigod army tasked with bringing hope back to the war-torn Mortal Realm; if necessary, they wouldn't hesitate to use force.

Constantine is a descendant of the Thunder-Forged Divine Weapon Hammer of the Paladin Legion Punisher bloodline, known for their giant, sturdy warriors wielding long-handled weapons. Their weapons are so heavy that two ordinary adult men could barely lift them together. Their task on the battlefield is to kill ferocious beasts and heavily protected enemy chiefs.

Thus, the arena was utterly wrecked by their fight, especially by Constantine's attacks. His long-handled warhammer could unleash thunder and lightning. When he leaped into the air and descended, wielding his warhammer, it was like an earthquake. A single blow could create a breach in the city wall.

These two hulking men in golden armor fought valiantly in the arena, drawing frenzied cheers from the surrounding Knights.

Nothing excites a Knight's bloodline more than such brutal, intense combat. During the battle, the effect of the Light-Scaled Fish surged continuously, allowing thirty-two Knights to achieve breakthroughs on the spot!

This included a Knight Commander from the Flame Sun Knight Order, who directly advanced from a High Tier Elite Knight to a Champion Knight!

Su Li was so delighted that he couldn't help but cheer and immediately called over the Knight Commander, rewarding her with a Dragon Blood Stone.

Even more to Su Li's delight, this Knight Commander turned out to be a Female Knight named Freya Caterina Menelos.

She was the first Champion-level female in the territory.

She had snow-white skin and flowing golden hair tied simply with a blue ribbon, gently swaying in the wind. A stubborn strand of hair on top of her head symbolized her Champion-level glory, untouchable.

She, too, wore the Gilded Black Armor and wielded a Black Gold Longsword inscribed with golden runes. Her aloof and arrogant personality was apparent in her sharp eyes, looking at most people as if they were trash, openly showing her disdain.

Because she belonged to the Knight Order and not the Black Forest, Su Li felt an itch of opportunity!

This meant he could pursue this Female Knight without worrying about any consequences.

Even if Freya had ambitions, it wasn't a bad thing for Su Li, as she couldn't interfere with the territory's army and could only strive to climb within the Knight Order. If she could grow into the Leader or Deputy Leader of the Knight Order, that would be highly beneficial for Su Li.

Su Li had never interacted with a Female Knight of this caliber and style before.

He thought back to the beginning when this Female Knight looked at him as if he were trash. Imagining pushing her down, moving from defiant, to conquered, to humiliated, and finally to submission and pleading, Su Li felt a strong desire to conquer.

However, Su Li wasn't in a hurry about this; he needed to first assess Rephya's character, temperament, and conduct thoroughly.

Unaware of Su Li's scrutiny, Rephya watched the fierce battle between the two powerful Champion Knights in the arena all night long, not daring to aspire to the Leader position Su Li had planned for her.

At this moment, Captain Constantine in the arena was terrifying, almost like a god or devil. Unleashing his full strength at Middle Tier Champion level, the might of the Thunder-Forged Divine Weapon behind him surged, leaving the arena in ruins.

Despite this, he couldn't defeat the Fiery Sun Lion Oerstein Knight.

The Dragon Blood Stone's blessing caused the Oerstein Knight's blood to surge, enhancing his formidable power.

The two mighty Middle Tier Champion Knights might have to battle from late night until dawn to determine a winner.

But clearly, Su Li wouldn't allow that outcome. Their evenly matched strength currently served the territory's greatest interest.

Thus, after many Knights achieved breakthroughs, Su Li halted their fight and dispersed the gathered crowd in the arena, instructing everyone to return to their stations and reflect on their gains.

Knights from the same Flame Sun Knight Order, Knight Oerstein and Captain Constantine held no mortal grudge, thus they ceased fighting by mutual agreement.

This battle allowed both sides to showcase their power and strength, garnering mutual respect.

Though these knights were all proud and unruly, great strength was the easiest way to earn their respect.

After this battle, Su Li himself was greatly inspired.

Throughout the day, he remained in a state of heightened bloodline, having witnessed a bountiful performance by the Dawn Church during the day, and consuming a large number of Light-Scaled Fish that night. Even half of the Fire Rabbit meat prepared for Hilude was left for Su Li by her.

She said her strength had reached the Elite Level, and with the blessing of Light-Scaled Fish and Divine Grace, the effects of Fire Rabbit meat on her were negligible.

However, this Fire Attribute Magical Beast meat had an unparalleled beneficial effect on the Bauhinia family bloodline, especially for those below Elite Knight rank, almost guaranteeing an elevation in rank.

So she sat next to Su Li, resting her chin on her soft hands, watching him eat before she contentedly mounted her horse with her Rune Sword, leading the adventure team to the perilous Blood Pine Forest.

That night, Su Li watched another blood-pumping knightly duel. Although he usually preferred to take it easy, the allure of such powerful combat was unmistakable.

So that evening, he trained diligently for four hours with three female courtiers!

Until Ingrid fainted, and Avril and Philis were utterly defeated, signing a series of unequal treaties, it was only then that Su Li stopped training.

Only then did Philis and Avril realize how much of their burden Hilude had been bearing all this time.

Without the presence of this High-Level Attendant Chief, they were like helpless little rabbits in the mouth of a Red Dragon, almost melting in its intense breath.

After the storm cleared, Su Li lay down embracing their soft bodies, and Avril breathlessly said, "Lord, I really suggest that you should find a stronger Female Knight to aid your knightly training. Philis and I… our strength is too weak."

Philis, resting her head on Su Li's strong abdomen, her chest still heaving violently, felt her mind still floating above the clouds, not yet back on the ground.

Though she was thoroughly enjoying her blissful married life, this kind of training refreshed her mind at the cost of her legs.

Sometimes, even the day after, her waist and legs would still be sore; knightly training was exhausting, and she suggested, "Lord, you should consider this proposal. Ingrid's body is too delicate, she fainted long ago. The two of us are no true match for your official Knight level. Maybe a Champion Knight could accelerate your training."

Su Li reflected on his own state; despite four hours of training, he remained full of stamina, as if there was boundless energy surging within his chest.

Under his robust physique, the delicate bodies of the two Apprentice Knights were soft as water, like a small boat floating amid tempestuous waves.

He smacked his lips and said, "I'll give this matter some serious thought. Even if I am inclined, it's not something that can happen overnight."

Su Li genuinely felt the benefits of a strong body and abundant energy; after four hours of training, he only needed six hours of sleep to wake up feeling delighted.

And he felt no discomfort at all, his energy within was abundant, filled with vital spirits.

In fact, after waking up, he could coordinate with Ingrid for another round of training, letting this witch experience the method of a female knight's training, serving until he was completely satisfied and content.

Then Su Li closed his eyes, feeling his own state after training.

With insights from the previous day and today's training, he smoothly broke through to Middle Tier Official Knight!

At this pace of advancement, even Champion Knights would be amazed.

Captain Constantine mentioned that he could reach the Divine Chosen Level, and Su Li felt a bit confident about that now.

Given time, without wandering off, by staying within the territory, he could achieve rapid breakthroughs.

The entire territory was the same; as long as the territory could develop steadily, relying on agriculture, it could continue to strengthen and ultimately crush everything around.

Today was also a very important day for the territory's farming endeavors. With the harvest season over, summer planting was about to begin.

The territory's 40,000 acres of good land, opened up with much fanfare at Jorn Shallow Bay, was not just for show. The serfs had to sow seeds across these 40,000 acres.

And all this must be done by the serfs themselves; half-elves had ploughs and harvesters, but no seeders.

The Minister of Agriculture, Vandar, went to Blood Pine Forest, and Su Li had to personally oversee and take charge of the territory's agricultural undertakings.
