Erwin's side is temporarily holding Buddhism for training, and it is not only their group that is anxious, Alwin's owner: Count Eno is actually very anxious at this time!

At this time, Count Eno was handling the affairs of the family in the hall, and as a nobleman with a weak foundation, it was difficult for him to be as extravagant as other old families, otherwise he would not have been promoted to the current title. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

That's right, his family is a noble title that has been snatched through the glory of knightly martial arts!

Although the glory of martial arts is difficult, it is not without success in history, for example, in history, Grand Duke Henry, the ancestor of his family was a knight to fight, and the noble title was forcibly snatched by force, including now, the last three generations of Count Eno, that is, his grandfather, were also snatched by this means.

They have won such a noble title by fighting for glory, it seems to be incomparably beautiful and glorious, but in fact, only they know how difficult it is, the title you just won is the lowest baron at the top of the world, and you take away the title of a child of an old family, which means that you have offended that big family, and it is easy to be targeted without a foundation.

His grandfather had suffered a lot, and those who entered the aristocratic circle by martial arts glory like this will be excluded, after all, in order to combat these foreign forces, the nobles still have a very tacit understanding with each other, at least they will not offend the family that you offended for you, so that the upside will become very narrow, your power is weak, the financial resources are not obvious, and you will suffer a lot in recruiting samurai, as long as the shrewd samurai is not blind, he will not choose a family like you, and there is no strong samurai to fight for glory for himself, Slowly the family will become weaker and weaker, and if the family does not accumulate glory after three generations, the title of the nobleman will be reduced, and as the lowest baron title in itself, it will naturally be reduced back to knighthood.

So the road of martial arts is very difficult to walk, there are very few families in history who can really rely on this road, but the family of Count Eno is relatively lucky, his father, was favored by a certain woman of the superior family Elizabeth family, a successful political marriage gave his family finally a chance to progress, to his generation, with the help of his mother, coupled with his own efforts, finally came up step by step and became an earl family.

But even with his mother's protection, Ino still feels the rejection of many families, so he has always attached great importance to doing things and educating future generations, especially cultivating samurai, and has been walking on thin ice for many years!

Even this year, the June Samurai Fight is very important for the nobles, it can determine the number of knights in your family, and it is also a rare opportunity for the samurai who are not yet knights to fight for the glory of the nobles.

Generally speaking, the nobles select samurai in the local area to start training, which is the main source of knights in the family, in the martial arts conference, there are hundreds of knights every year, and the major families are fighting for this thing, and most of the cultivated samurai become knights are loyal to the family that cultivates themselves, but it is not impossible to be loyal to other nobles, there are two points involved here.

On the one hand, as long as both parties are willing: that is to say, if the knight and the noble party he wants to be loyal to are both willing, he can negotiate with his original cultivation family and give enough transfer fees to let the family give up the knight.

But first of all, you have to be good enough, excellent enough to be so good that the other nobles take the initiative to tempt you, you must know that knights will not rashly flatter other nobles, otherwise other nobles will not look down on you, and the family that cultivates you will know your move, then you will have a very hard time in the future, and most of the transfer fees are relatively expensive, and few nobles are willing to do this, so most of the sources of knights still come from the samurai cultivated by their own families!

Ino looked at the list of candidates for the tournament handed to him by his butler, which was drawn up by his chief knights, and he would select the best people according to the training and recent performance of his samurai.

Ino looked at the candidates on the list, his brows furrowed slightly, he found that he was familiar with the names on the list, because it seemed that these people had fought for his family in the past three years, and this also meant that in the past three years, there had been no new knights in his family!

This is not good news, and he is not optimistic about these familiar names on the list, although he has competition experience, but it is not that the more experience he has to participate in the event, the more opportunities he has, just like taking the civil service exam, in fact, the best year to take the test is the year of fresh graduates, and a wave will pass, which is the most perfect, otherwise it will be more and more difficult to take the test after a long time, which is the so-called decline and exhaustion.

Don't think that martial arts are different, you must know that this martial arts is very life-threatening, and fifty percent of the samurai who participate in the battle will die every year, and if there is no samurai who jumps over this hurdle with a breath of blood, in the second or even third year, although they are experienced, they will become sophisticated, and without the spirit of blood and bravery, although the survival rate will be greatly improved, but the success rate...... But it is getting smaller and smaller year by year, after all, at the critical moment, they will not choose to fight for a wave, but choose to save their lives, and they who have become veteran oilers rarely have the opportunity to become knights.

So when Ino found out that this year's list was still last year's people, he was very unhappy, but there was no way, the samurai seedlings he selected in recent years were very average, nothing brilliant, and naturally it was difficult to behave better than those old people in training, if you behaved averagely, your knight chief would naturally give priority to those veterans, after all, whether emotionally or strategically, although these veterans have little chance of becoming knights, they are also much stronger than your poor recruits!

But Ino doesn't see it that way, in his opinion, if he can't become a knight, then both veterans and recruits are just moths to waste his family's food, these veterans are experienced, but if they can't get the knighthood, then they are wasting their resources and energy!

Because only knights can represent the family in various activities to participate in the glory of martial arts, fighting for resources for the family, and the samurai ..... There is no such qualification!

Seeing that there were no new names on the list, Ino's face became much darker, so he notified the butler to call the chief knight.

Ino's knight chief is called Gray, a huge Northland warrior, who can do the position of the chief knight of his family, in addition to the other party's more good people, he naturally overwhelms everyone in terms of force, after all, knights and nobles are different, they always rely on strength to eat!

"Aren't there any decent seedlings this year?" Ino's face didn't look very good, he was usually relatively gentle, and he was not as mean as the nobles of the big family, especially to himself, the knight who had won a lot of glory for himself! But the current situation really made him unable to put on a smile.

Gray's generous face also showed an embarrassed expression, after all, he is responsible for the training and selection of samurai, not a knight has been born in recent years, it is indeed a little unreasonable, but he can't help it, the better seedlings are staring at other big families, and they have all been snatched away, although he represents the Earl's power, but his own master is a new earl, and his financial resources and reputation naturally cannot be compared with the old Earl family, it is difficult to earn those old families, after all, the selection is two-way, and the samurai themselves have the right to choose, as long as they are not stupid, will choose a family with a good salary and relatively strong power, so there is not much room for him to choose!

Gray made a knightly salute and said, "Originally, there was a very good one, named Alwin, but that kid is too young and his body is too weak, if he is allowed to participate this year, it will be very reluctant, and he will not be able to hurry, Lord Earl!" "Speaking of Alvin Gray, it took a lot of effort to select a good seedling, or an old fellow from the past (a knight from another force, that is, the old knight who assessed Alvin at the beginning), to give himself a breath, this year Snow Wolf originally had a better seedling.

Because Alvin is young and thin, many short-sighted nobles didn't notice him, plus the other party is a child, it's easier to fool, and the other party also brought a family member (Xiaoting!). I also desperately want to become a samurai and get a salary, and under a series of factors, I have grabbed this good seedling!

Gray is going to train the other party for a good year, so that he can participate in next year's election, as for this year...... He still didn't want Al to participate in the event too early, after all, the other party's foundation was weak, first of all, the body was not open, and the equestrian aspect had just begun to contact, so it was not suitable for competition.

Ino frowned, of course he also knew that he couldn't pull out the seedlings too much, it was not a good thing to let the young samurai participate too early, it was very likely that he would become similar to those veteran oils on the list, this kind of potential young samurai, many nobles will choose to invest for many years to ensure their success, but the results in the past few years have been really poor, there has not been a new knight for three years, and he has become a laughing point around him, and he is often reprimanded by his mother!

This situation made him really a little unable to hold back, and after a long groan, he suddenly asked, "Elwin, right?" I've heard you say that you passed the samurai selection at the age of fourteen, and you were recruited from the Snow Wolf Plain, where the martial arts are relatively strong, and you are indeed a good seedling, although you are ......a little younger, but you have done a good job in this matter! ”

Gray was vigilant, he knew his old club, and on the surface, he praised himself first, but after many years of master-servant relationship, Gray knew what the other party wanted to do!

He didn't wait for the owner to speak, and said solemnly: "My lord, Alwin's body has not opened yet, and although his qualifications are good, he is not suitable for the competition!" ”

Ino smiled, but instead of giving up, he smiled and asked, "That's right, but how did I hear that he won Crus in a battle?" ”

Gray: ".........................."
