Hearing Hillman's words and seeing how relaxed Hillman was, all of the children immediately replied
vigorously. "Great." Hillman's facial expression suddenly turned serious. "That huge creature is
known as a Velocidragon. The magus on top of the Velocidragon is incredibly powerful. But everyone
should know one thing!" Hillman's gaze immediately sharpened as it swept across the faces of each
child. "Even that mysterious magus gained his power one step at a time, starting from the bottom
ranks. In order to subdue that powerful Velocidragon, he had to spend many years of toil and hard
work! If you guys want to subdue a Velocidragon of your own, to be as powerful as that mysterious
magus, then all of you have to work hard without fail!" "Every single person has the potential to
become mighty. The only question is, are you willing to work hard enough at it?" Uncle Hillman's
words were as clear and as hard as nails. His gaze was fierce and cold. Immediately, all the
children quieted down, but all of them still had their own imaginations running wild, and their
gazes shone with their different thoughts. "Now, time to do our morning exercises. Same as
always – face the sun, and begin the 'qi-absorbing exercise'." Hillman crisply began the day's
program, and immediately the three groups of children began to practice the 'qi-absorbing stance'.
Based on each squad's ability, Hillman assigned different exercises. Under the guidance of the
three adults, each child studiously completed each exercise. Today, the training atmosphere was
totally different. Almost none of the children complained of being tired. Every single one of them
had some fire in their belly today, and they trained hard! "...fifty...fifty one..." Linley counted
mentally as he laid horizontal to the ground, supporting himself with just the fingertips of one
hand and the tips of his toes. His entire body was tense. He was in the middle of training through
five-finger pushups. This exercise could not only train his palm strength, it could also improve
his finger strength and his elbow strength. This method was simple and effective. If someone wanted
to be a mighty warrior, normally they would have to practice cultivating battle-qi. The ability to
cultivate battle-qi, in turn, was determined by how strong and sturdy one's body was, as a stronger
body would be able to enjoy a more powerful battle-qi. "Since my body has Dragonblood in its veins
and is unable to practice battle-qi, my only option is to far outstrip everyone else in bodily
strength." Linley's eyes were firm, and his fingers jutted into the ground, as tough and
unyielding as old roots. He did one pushup after another, amazing many of the already-exhausted
youths around him. "Ninety eight, ninety nine..." Linley continued to persevere. "Morning exercises
are over." Hillman said in a loud voice, facing the children. After saying these words, Hillman
took a deep breath as he thought to himself, "What story should I tell them today?" Every day, when
morning exercises were completed, Hillman would tell the children stories. This had turned into a
routine." "Uncle Hillman, we-" A child's voice rang out. But just at that moment, halfway through
the child's words, Hillman, who had been lookingly slightly downwards as he collected his thoughts,
suddenly felt a strange feeling. He lifted his head up. Right now, all three groups of children
were all staring east, eyes wide and jaws dropped. Roger and Lorry had also turned to stare east,
and their gazes were also filled with awe. "Eh?" Surprised, Hillman couldn't help but turn around
as well and stare to the east. In the east, not too far away, perhaps two or three hundred meters
in the air, an enormous, ebony-colored dragon lay coiled in the sky, its body at least a hundred
meters long. The enormous black dragon's giant eyes were the size of cartwheels. Its sparkling
black scales were huge enough to fill any man's heart with dread. And its hundred-meter long wings
were gently flapping, but with movement contained incredible powerful.
Magical beast – Black Dragon!
