Gran stared at the holy sword in Xia Yi's hand.

He knew that the Holy Sword only recognized human souls and only humans could use the Holy Sword.

Obviously, the holy sword did not seem to be controlled, and was voluntarily cooperating with Xia Yi in the battle. It had definitely recognized the soul of Her Royal Highness the Princess.

This is basically a holy sword user.

If Her Highness the Princess is a Holy Swordsman, then it is very likely...

Well!

Grand quickly stopped thinking.

He was very smart and must not delve into the past of Her Royal Highness the Princess. This would do him no good and would only arouse the anger of Her Majesty the Queen.

Xia Yi used the holy sword to attack wildly, and the Black Knight was not to be outdone, responding with crazy power again and again.

Both parties in this battle were obviously enjoying the fight.

The Black Knight cannot be defeated by ordinary means. His soul has been attached to the pitch-black armor. This pitch-black armor is quite domineering and almost indestructible.

This is why the Black Knight has the prefix of Immortality.

However, the seemingly invincible Black Knight actually has a huge weakness.

This does not come from the Black Knight himself, but from the summoner.

Burn the devil!

All the Black Knight's maintenance in the world is provided by the summoner.

This guy's fighting style is just like a berserker, he uses all his strength and brutality without any regard for saving mana.

Not to mention that every time the Black Knight is frustrated, he will release more fighting spirit, which continues to rise. Now the magic power consumption per second is more than ten times that of when he first appeared.

An ordinary summoner would be beaten to death on the spot!

Now Gran is simply a living victim.

Originally, he wanted to strike a blow to Her Royal Highness the Princess, but now he is burning magic like crazy just for her pleasure.

"Alright, alright! The battle ends here!! It's over!"

Gran was so angry that he created a magic barrier between the Black Knight and Xia Yi, and at the same time forcibly stopped providing magic to the Black Knight.

The Black Knight was forcibly stopped.

"Eh? Is this the end?" Xia Yi looked reluctant.

"Your Highness, it's already been ten minutes. The exam is over."

"Oh... okay." Xia Yi felt very sorry.

"Black Knight, thank you for your hard work. Go back." Gran ordered, preparing to end the summons.

"..."

But the Black Knight stood there, motionless, unwilling to leave.

Grand frowned and became alert.

His actions just now were still very dangerous, causing dissatisfaction among summoned creatures, and there were many summoners who suffered backlash.

Could it be that the Black Knight is about to turn against us?

Grand was ready to fight back.

But the black knight did not face him. Instead, he walked towards Xia Yi and stretched out his hand.

"Eh? Black Knight, are you going to shake hands with me?" Xia Yi blinked.

The Black Knight half-crouched on the ground.

Xia Yi looked confused.

Only Gran, who was standing aside, could no longer conceal the shock on his face and was almost petrified on the spot.

This was the Black Knight inviting Xia Yi to sign a summoning contract with him, and his attitude was very sincere.

I had worked so hard to sign a summoning contract with a creature that provided a huge amount of mana to maintain itself after being summoned, but after the battle, the creature actually took the initiative to wish to sign a summoning contract with the opponent. Isn't this a kind of...

45 How Embarrassed Gran

Xia Yi found that the Black Knight's behavior seemed a little strange.

So he turned around and saw Grand looking at him with a complicated expression on his face.

"Gran, what's wrong with you?"

"This old man is..."

Grand hesitated.

When he went to the Black Knight to sign the summoning contract, it took him a lot of effort to get the Black Knight to reluctantly agree to sign the summoning contract with him.

But what about Her Royal Highness the Princess in front of me?

But after a fight, the black knight actually took the initiative to sign a contract with her.

This situation, in Gran's opinion, is quite rare!

How could a summoned creature behave like this? It's simply not giving itself face.

If it were anyone else, Gran would have been furious and would have sent the Black Knight away by force.

But this person now is Her Royal Highness the Princess.

Although he was somewhat helpless, he still patiently explained to Xia Yi, "Your Highness, the Black Knight wants to sign a summoning contract with you."

"Summoning contract?"

Xia Yi found it very novel.

"Yes, it's a formal summoning contract. Don't tell me, you don't know, right? Summoning magic is one of the courses—"

"I know, I know!"

Xia Yi nodded quickly.

"But I didn't expect the Black Knight to sign a summoning contract with me."

In previous magic classes, Xia Yi had indeed summoned some creatures.

But basically they are just objects for practice and they are all temporary contracts.

For example, hamsters, pigeons, cats... and so on.

She indeed had not yet signed the formal summoning contract.

Xia Yi raised her head and looked at the Black Knight.

The Black Knight also looked at Xia Yi.

Neither man spoke.

But in the battle just now, Xia Yi felt... this burning fighting spirit!

Just like me, he also enjoys fighting.

The other party recognized his soul!

"Okay, Black Knight, then I will sign a summoning contract with you!"

Xia Yi also raised her little hand, clenched it into a fist, and touched the black knight's gauntlet.

The black knight let out a low growl that was almost like that of a wild beast, and then lowered his posture further, half-kneeling on the ground.

"This, this... I can't accept it!!" Gran covered his head and cried out in pain.

"Grand, you're so startled, like a cock."

"Your Highness, do you understand what the Black Knight means?"

"I see. You want to sign a summoning contract with me."

"That's not what I'm talking about. It's the level of the summoning contract!" The wrinkles on Gran's face were almost twisted together.

There are many types of summoning contracts.

In addition to the consumption of magic power, the summoner also needs to pay a corresponding price when summoning, and the extent of the price will be determined based on the conditions of both parties.

It could be 1/4 of the summoner's life, or a certain number of lives sacrificed, or it could be a rare special material...

But generally speaking, the stronger the summoned creature, the higher the price you have to pay. If you don't offer anything in return, how can any strong person be willing to be your thug?

For example, when Gran summons the Black Knight, he needs at least one highly concentrated magic crystal.

This is the problem. The contract that the Black Knight wants to sign with Xia Yi does not require Xia Yi to make any additional payments. It is the zero-cost contract that all summoners dream of.

Grand was envious.

"Your Highness, I need to pay a highly concentrated amount of magic essence to summon the Black Knight."

"Is it so expensive? When I summoned the hamster before, I only needed a peanut..."

"Your Highness, the stronger the summoned creature is, the more expensive the price must be. Otherwise, the summoned creature will not easily agree. However, the summoning contract that the Black Knight wants to sign now does not require you to pay an additional price. It is a special... zero-cost contract."

The look Gran gave the Black Knight was almost that of a grudge woman.

He was so jealous that he almost died. Why didn't he get the same treatment?

"Black Knight, are you serious?" Xia Yi asked.

The Black Knight nodded silently and raised his black sword.

Xia Yi looked at the other person, feeling something.

"Black Knight...are you in a good mood today? Can you change our summoning contract?" Gran asked curiously.

But the Black Knight ignored him and didn't even look at him.

The scene was very embarrassing.

"Why can't I do this?"
