As Ronin put the laurel wreath on Blanche's head, the championship of the tournament ended, and some nobles such as King Bruno began to leave.

But the tournament did not end there.

Next, there was the competition between Franz and Missy for the third place, and some noble children's fights, which were equivalent to exhibition matches. The whole arena was still lively.

When Blanche invited a group of noble ladies to visit the Moon Shadow Palace, Ronin also got off the stands and walked towards the direction of the Extraordinary College in Niujiao Bay.

"Count Ronin!"

"Flame Knight!"

When the teachers and students of the Extraordinary College saw Ronin coming over, they greeted him one after another, and the dean also warmly welcomed him to visit the college.

Ronin naturally agreed. He glanced around the crowd twice, but did not see Karada.

"Where did Knight Karada go?"

"Here, over there." Someone pointed to the periphery and said, "Honorary Baron Philemon is talking to him."

Someone enviously said, "Although Karada lost to you just now, his performance in the duel must have attracted many people's optimism."

"He has always wanted to join the Royal Knights. It seems that he should have a good chance this time."

"I'm so envious."

Hearing what they said, Ronin's heart jumped. No way, the person he just wanted to recruit was going to be preempted by His Majesty the King?

This won't do!

He nodded to the teachers and students of the Niujiao Bay Supernatural Academy, and then walked towards Karada and Philemon who were talking outside the arena.

The two noticed Ronin's approach and turned around.

Phiemon smiled: "Why, our Flame Knight is coming to find the opponent to continue communicating?"

Karada nodded slightly to Ronin.

"Sorry to interrupt your conversation."

Ronin walked up to the two with a smile. He looked at the king's personal guard and the leader of the Royal Knights. He heard that the other party was a golden knight who had one foot in the meteor level. His strength should not be underestimated.

"Your Excellency is right. I am indeed here to find Karada."

Philimon was very polite to the future king's son-in-law. "In that case, I won't bother you."

He said, and then said to Karada: "Come to me after you become a golden knight!"

After saying this, he left.

Looking at Philemon's back, Ronin said: "Should I congratulate you on your successful joining of the Royal Knights?"

"It's too early."

Karada denied it succinctly: "Only after becoming a golden knight, I am qualified to apply to the Royal Knights."

Fortunately...

Ronin breathed a sigh of relief. He thought Philemon had already discussed it with Karada.

"The requirements of the Royal Knights are so strict that only Golden Knights are eligible to apply. How many people are there in this group? Are all the members Golden Knights?"

If all the Golden Knights form a group, Ronin can't imagine its combat effectiveness.

I'm afraid that the Meteor Knights will have to go around in front of such a Knights' Group.

"Of course not."

Karada spread his hands, and his tone revealed helplessness: "This is just a specific condition set for me personally."

He was talking about individuals, not ordinary people of this kind.

It seems that Karada has not been able to join the Royal Knights, and there must be some reasons that Ronin doesn't know.

"Although the Royal Knights have extended an olive branch to you, I still want to ask."

Ronin paused and looked directly into the other party's eyes: "I wonder if I am qualified to recruit you to join my territory now?"

He values ​​the other party's potential.

If Karada can join Wubei Territory, then this young knight in his twenties will be the most promising person under Ridar, and his qualifications are definitely better than McKen.

Although the current Wushan Territory seems to be stable, there will definitely be conflicts and wars in the future.

Local geopolitical conflicts may be resolved by relying on the five knights of Wushan Fort, but if Ronin wants to obtain the title of Marquis of the Kingdom, he still needs his own strength.

Moreover, Ronin's goal is not just as simple as the Marquis.

If he wants to go further, it means that the situation on the continent will be turbulent. Only when a large-scale battlefield breaks out, the existing power structure will have a chance to reshuffle and rebuild.

At that time, Ronin needs more knights, especially stronger knights.

People like Karada are obviously the most suitable candidates.

"You misunderstood me."

Karada explained: "The qualifications I mentioned do not refer to the leading in "strength". After all, many nobles are not strong, right?"

"Oh?"

Ronin was surprised: "If it is not personal strength, then it is the strength of the territory?"

"Don't worry about this. Although my territory is in its infancy, it is very vast and has great development potential. There will be more opportunities for the knights who follow me!"

Considering that the other party is a commoner, he may pay more attention to the issue of remuneration, so Ronin said.

"Silver knights are paid 336 gold coins per year, and gold knights are paid 1,680 gold coins per year. In addition, there will be subsidies based on the position, and spoils of war are counted separately."

He said straight to the point: "You don't have to worry that I can't afford the remuneration of my followers. My followers have gold and silver, and I have never owed them wages."

The current remuneration and development prospects have been mentioned, and the other party should have a certain understanding.

Karada laughed, but still shook his head.

"I have never doubted your financial strength."

He sighed and said directly: "In fact, over the years, I have also thought about working for nobles outside the Royal Knights, but in the end I did not succeed."

"Why?"

Karada said helplessly: "Someone is obstructing me. Even if I want to follow you, you will change your mind because of him."

There is such a thing?

This puzzled Ronin. Who would interfere with the decision of other nobles?

The first person he thought of was the king, but it was unlikely after careful consideration.

He suddenly thought, could it be that the pursuer of Karada's secret crush put pressure on other nobles, which led to such an outstanding young genius having nowhere to go?

"Who is obstructing you?" Ronin asked.

Karada smiled mysteriously: "I think he will find you soon. If you want to recruit me after meeting him, I think we can talk at that time."

For this civilian knight, what he wanted to do most was to cross the class.

Originally, this matter was a difficult and easy thing for professional knights with great potential and strong strength.

But for Karada, it was an insurmountable mountain - he had no chance to get close to the aristocratic circle, let alone enter this circle.

In his eyes, although Ronin had background, strength, and future, if it was in the past, such a person would definitely appear on the list of aristocrats he was willing to follow, but perhaps because he had been stood up too many times and had been reneged on many times, Karada did not think Ronin would be special for such aristocrats who valued interests more.

Instead of this, he might as well choose the Royal Knights. After all, Knight Philemon had said that as long as he became a golden knight and then applied, he would have a great chance to join.

Only by successfully following the aristocrats can he have the opportunity to establish merit, become an honorary knight, and then become a noble.

Otherwise, before becoming a strong man that others had to look at him in the eye, he was at most a knight with some money and strength, but unable to cross the class.

Roning looked at the back of the civilian knight leaving and couldn't help asking, "I heard that you have a crush on a noble. Can you tell me her identity?"

In his opinion, this humble and polite civilian knight who wanted to enter the aristocratic circle would not offend a noble. Therefore, there was probably only this reason for the nobles to target him.

Karada paused. He didn't expect that Roning, who had never been to Jinyu City, also knew about this.

"She was your opponent today."

Is it her?

Roning's mind immediately showed the figure of Knight Missy.

She is a good friend of Her Royal Highness the Princess, a member of the royal family's top combat force, the Griffin Knights, a rare silver-level female knight, and a noble family...

Compared with this, Karada and Missy are indeed a bit mismatched. (End of this chapter)
