Early the next morning, I embarked on a journey to Dragon City. In order to avoid unnecessary trouble, I brought my bamboo hat again. I am too handsome to help.
The rank of the Dragon God Empire is much stronger than the Orc Kingdom. After walking for 5 days, a group of bandits have not been encountered. No wonder the Dragon God Empire can compete with the other two powerful clans. It does have its own strength. Advantage.
The gradually warmer air reminded me that it was already noon, and there was no food left in my stomach. There was a small restaurant on the side of the road just ahead. After I came to the Dragon God Empire, I was particularly fascinated by the food here. worlds apart. As soon as I entered the small restaurant, the tangy aroma rushed over, making my index finger twitch. Although this place is not luxurious, it is also very clean, and the popularity is really good. There are already 60 to 70% guests in the room.
I found a relatively clean table and sat down. The waiter came over, handed me the menu, and asked, "Sir, what would you like to order?"
I flipped through the menu, randomly picked out a few dishes I hadn't eaten before, and ordered 1 catty of steamed buns. Soon, all my dishes were served. I held the steamed buns in my left hand and the chopsticks in my right hand to start the sweeping battle. At this time, the number of guests in the restaurant gradually increased, and soon there were no empty seats.
A young warrior walked in from the outside, about 1.8 meters tall, wearing a moon-white samurai uniform, looking very strong, with a long sword on his back, he was a very energetic young man.
He came in and saw that there was no empty table in the room, so he walked to my table and said politely: "Brother, there is no room, can I sit here with you?"
I was sitting at a table for four, and I was the only one. I nodded and continued to eat with my head down.
The samurai shouted: "Waiter, bring me a catty of good wine, two side dishes, and a catty of steamed buns." After finishing the dishes, he said to me: "Brother, you look like you are going to travel a long way."
Although I haven't taken off my bamboo hat, but the veil has been raised, so I don't eat much. Are all humans so enthusiastic? I raised my head, gave him a cold look, and nodded again. He was shocked when he saw my handsome and cold face. I continued to eat my food and ignored him.
He hit a nail and smiled mischievously. When his food came, I had already finished eating. I casually put down a silver coin, stood up, threw the package on my back shoulder, and strode out of the restaurant.
I found that in the Dragon God Empire, many people are riding horses, and they seem to be very fast. I also want to try to get one, so that I should be able to arrive at Dragon City earlier.
I grabbed a passerby and asked, "Excuse me, there is a place for selling horses there." The passerby who was caught by me frowned first, but didn't dare to say anything when he saw my tall figure, and pointed forward. , said: "At which intersection ahead, turn left, and there is a horse farm about two kilometers away, where you can buy horses."
I nodded at him and walked in the direction he pointed.
The scale of the racecourse is really large. In the center is a racecourse with an area of about 1,000 mu, and on the left is a place for selling horses and some corresponding accessories.
When I came to the place where I bought horses, I asked the horse dealer, "Which horse is for sale here?"
The horse dealer knew at a glance that I was a foreigner and didn't know much about horses. He smiled contemptuously and said, "As long as you can afford it, all the horses you can see here will be sold."
I said yes and started looking around to see if I could find a horse I liked. Suddenly, I found that all the people were gathering towards the west of the racecourse, and I didn't know what was going on. Hastily grabbed a person to ask. It turned out that the owner of the farm brought many people back to catch a wild horse a few days ago. The wild horse is violent in nature, and no one can tame it. When it was caught, it was only successful with blowing arrows and drugs. No, today the owner invited several well-known horse trainers to try to tame the horse.
I'm going to have a look at such a strong horse. I followed the brigade to the horse training ground in the west, and there was already a sea of people. Although I stood at the back, I could still see the center of the field with my superior figure. I saw six or seven people in the arena, all neatly dressed, surrounded by a black steed. Although I don't know horses, I can still see the steed of this horse. The black palm hair is shiny, like a black horse. Like black satin, it holds its proud head high and snorts constantly, looking very impatient and full of hostility towards the people around it.
The sky was getting cloudy, and big clouds gathered in the sky. Although there wasn't enough sunshine, I didn't feel cool, but felt more stuffy.
The people surrounding it tried to trap it with a rope, and then climbed onto his horse's back, but the black horse was very clever, dodging the attacks of the trainers time and time again.
The people next to them began to discuss a lot, saying that this time it might not be fastened again. At this moment, a middle-aged horse trainer threw out the collar suddenly, and it caught the black horse's neck. The black horse suddenly became irritable, and the two The front hooves were raised high, and there was a clear long hiss. The horse trainer did a good job, using the strength of the pull, he rolled onto the horse's back and hugged the horse's neck tightly.
"Good job, hold on, hold on." The surrounding crowd began to cheer.
The black horse kept jumping up and down, trying to shake off the person on its back. With his furious movements, the other trainers around him were pushed to the periphery, and now, only the trainer on horseback was left to fight alone.
The black horse swayed for a long time, seeing that it could not get rid of the trainer on its back, it gradually calmed down and stopped kicking. It seemed that no matter how fierce it was, it would be tamed. The surrounding crowd shouted the name of the horse trainer. It turned out that he was the son of the farm owner, and he also raised his hands proudly on the horseback.
Just at this moment, something happened. The black horse seemed to stumble, and suddenly fell down. The trainer was startled, and he jumped off the horse to check it. He couldn't bear to hurt such a good horse.
Just as he jumped off the horse, the black horse suddenly stood up again, with its front hooves on the ground, and a pair of powerful hind hooves kicked the middle-aged horse trainer's chest heavily. Even though I was so far away, I could still hear the trainer's breastbone. With a cracking sound, he let out a long scream and was kicked far away, and it seemed that he would not survive.
In fact, it was only a blink of an eye, and the surrounding crowd suddenly became agitated. Several other horse trainers in the field hurriedly pulled the horse trainer who was kicked away.
A well-dressed man ran out from the side, and shouted angrily: "Give back my son's life, and shoot this fierce horse for me." It seems that this is the owner of the ranch, and his son's death has knocked him out out of his mind.
Immediately, many ranch staff ran out of the surrounding area, holding various weapons and trying to kill the horse. The black horse still holds its head high in the arena, completely unaware that the fate of death is coming to it.
I don't know why, but when I saw this handsome black horse for the first time, I had an inexplicable love for it. It seemed that it was time for me to show up.
I yelled: "Wait a minute." With strength in my arms, I pushed aside the people in front of me and walked into the field. Thousands of pairs of eyes looked at me on the field, and when I walked up to the owner, he was crying bitterly on his son. I first looked down at his son's injuries. I was out of breath, my orifices were bleeding, and my chest collapsed. I couldn't help shaking my head.
"Give me a chance, let me tame this horse."
The owner said with tears streaming down his face: "No, I want to use its corpse to pay homage to the soul of my son."
I frowned, and said coldly: "What's wrong with the horse, if you didn't try to tame it beyond your limits, this wouldn't happen."
The field owner was furious: "Who are you, dare to come to me to act wildly, come here, let me kick him out."
I snorted coldly, ignored him, turned and walked towards the black horse. As soon as he took two steps, he was surrounded by people from the ranch. I took off the bamboo hat and carried it on my back, and said coldly: "Don't force me to hurt people."
These workers didn't pay attention to this, and when they heard my arrogant words, they immediately swarmed up, and at the same time four or five people grabbed me. But they didn't use weapons at all, it seemed that they just wanted to beat me up to vent their anger for the boss.
How could their skills be seen in my eyes, and I threw them all out immediately with both arms. Seeing that they were going to come up, I groaned heavily, my eyes radiated majesty, and shouted: "If you want to come up, you will die." I punched the ground heavily, "Boom." With a sound, the dust was flying, flat There is a large pit with a diameter of 1 meter and a depth of half a meter on the field.
I patted the dust off my body, ignored the stunned crowd, and went straight to the black horse.
The black horse may also feel the danger, staring at me closely with a pair of big eyes, and kept pawing the ground with its left front hoof.
I walked to a place two meters away from him and stood down, smiling contemptuously at it, fearing that it would fail with my strength to tear tigers and leopards apart. I don't know if it understood my smile, and with a hiss, it stood up and stomped heavily on me.
I lowered my waist and rode the horse, raised my hands high, and grabbed the hooves it stepped on. The momentum was really great. My arms were pressed back and I shrank back, but I was immediately stopped by my luck. People around Unanimously surprised.
"What a lot of strength, it can actually block the horse's stepping down."
"Look at the big hole he made just now, it must be a senior warrior."
"Is he a human? Can a human have such great strength?"
I'm sorry, but I really can't be completely human, at least my strength is not human.
I exerted my strength on my waist, and threw the black horse out with a swing. It rolled on the ground, screamed in pain, and struggled a few times before standing up again. I walked up to it again, stared into its eyes, and said coldly: "Are you convinced? With your strength, it is impossible to compete with me."
As if it could understand what I said, it nodded its horse's head, looked at me pitifully with its big eyes, walked up to me slowly, and rubbed my chest with its big head. I patted its head gently, a rare smile appeared on my face.
"You will be my best partner from now on. May I call you Black Dragon?" The black horse let out a roar, and seemed to agree with the name I gave it.
I turned my head and said loudly: "Owner, I'm sorry, I want this horse." Regardless of their reaction, I took out a bag of gold coins from my pocket, about 50 or so, and threw them over. Then I flew onto the horse. After I got on the horse, I remembered that I had never ridden before (the orc itself is a beast, how can he ride a horse?), forget it, I clamped the horse’s belly tightly with my legs, and grasped its long buttocks with my hands. Brown hair, the black dragon didn't need me to urge it, it ran out quickly, and when it reached the railing, I slashed out with my palm, smashing the top two splits, it jumped out of the railing, and took me. The owner of the horse galloped away.
The sky gradually began to drizzle. Although the clothes gradually became wet, the cool feeling made me very comfortable. It was the first time I rode a horse. I was a little nervous at first, but after a while, this feeling disappeared. The back of the black dragon is very stable, with only a slight sense of bumps. The surrounding scenery whizzed by from both sides. I lay my body on the black dragon. Gradually, I found that as long as I tilted my body to the left, it would go Running to the left, tilting to the right, it runs to the right, it’s really fun, after all, I’m only sixteen years old, I just play and forget the direction I’m going, I didn’t realize it until it was almost dark, I lost my way, surrounded by lush greenery Fortunately, this is a small road in the forest, otherwise, I don't even know how to walk. Forget it, let's go in this direction, find someone and ask for the direction.
In this way, I rode the black dragon along the path for another two hours before reaching a town. I pulled the mane back, and the black dragon gradually slowed down and entered the town. I jumped off it and found that the pants had been removed. The black dragon was drenched in sweat, I patted its big head pitifully, and walked inside.
The size of this town is really not small. All kinds of shops on the side of the road filled the town full of vitality. The black dragon followed me step by step. I found a hotel, and the waiter at the door hurried over and said with a smile : "Sir, come live with us. We have complete facilities, cheap prices, and considerate service..." I impatiently raised my hand to stop him from continuing.
"Find me a place to settle my horse."
The waiter looked at the black dragon behind me and said sincerely: "You are really a good horse, but why is there no saddle and bridle?"
"Saddle bridle? What's that?" I thought to myself, but didn't ask. I said, "Do you have any here? I'm trying to wear them."
"We don't have any here. You see, there is a shop that specializes in saddle bridles over there. You can go there. They have good quality and low price."
"You take me there, I want the whole set."
The waiter looked embarrassed and said, "But I'm still working here, look..."
I sneered, threw him a silver coin, and said, "I'm not busy this time."
The waiter followed Yin Coin and said with a smile on his face, "It's not busy, you wait a minute." After saying that, he ran back to the store to say hello to the other waiters, then ran over excitedly, and took me into the saddle shop.
I spent 10 gold coins to equip the black dragon with the best set of saddles, bridles, shoes, etc., but I didn't ask for a whip, because I don't think it is necessary, and the black dragon looks even more handsome with this outfit , the guys in the store kept praising it. It is worth mentioning that, except for me, the black dragon did not let anyone approach it.
I followed the waiter of the hotel to send the black dragon to their stable, brushed and washed the black dragon myself, fed it some good fodder, and then went back to the hotel to rest.
After a night's rest, I asked the direction of Dragon City, found my location on the map, and set off again. Fortunately, I didn't go in the opposite direction. Although I deviated a bit, I quickly got on the right path after being corrected.
It is more comfortable to ride a black dragon with a saddle and bridle. I loosen the reins and adjust the direction and let the black dragon run by itself. It's impossible to surpass the past. I didn't expect the horse to have such a strong competitive spirit.
After having the Black Dragon, the speed has increased exponentially, and the 3000-kilometer journey only took 10 days to arrive. This is the result of my feeling sorry for it and running slowly.
Finally came to Dragon City. Although it doesn't look as tall as our orc imperial city, it is still very majestic. The city wall is 8 feet high, and it is all made of thick granite. Dragons of different shapes are carved on it. Hanging the flag of the Dragon God Empire. It may be because this place is already inland, and the defense is very loose. I entered the city smoothly without being checked. Dragon City is really big, several times bigger than our orc's imperial city, I walked around for three full days before I got a rough idea.
Tiandu Academy is very famous here, and its location can be known by just asking around. I first registered at Tiandu College, and learned that it would take more than a month to start the exam. Anyway, there was still time, so I decided to stay first. There are many hotels around Tiandu College, and I chose a cleaner one.
Every morning, I will practice Tianlei removing armor for a while, and in the afternoon, I will take the black dragon around, and sometimes go out of the city to walk it, otherwise, it will get fat if it eats stupidly and sleeps boringly every day. In the evening, I intensify my practice of Heavenly Demon Kungfu. In this enemy's country, it is better to reach the strength of the two-winged fallen angels as soon as possible. If the identity of the outsider is exposed, I will have the strength to fight.
More than a month has passed like this. Although I have worked hard, the Heavenly Demon Kungfu is still only at the late stage of the second level, and it is still too early to transform, because the transformation can only be done after completing the third level. It seems impatient It's useless, I can only talk about it in Tiandu Academy later.
After more than a month of life, I found that there are a lot of warriors and magicians in Dragon City. Although I haven't fought against magicians, I have encountered wizards wearing magic robes a few times, and I faintly feel them It is terrifying, and the level of the warriors seems to be very high. It really is a powerful country. I am full of confidence, and I feel a little guilty after observing this period of time.
In the Dragon God Empire, warriors are divided into ten levels: trainee warrior, junior warrior, intermediate warrior, senior warrior, sword master, great sword master, earth knight, bright knight, sword master, and god of war. Middle and lower ranks, magicians are divided into apprentice magician, junior magician, intermediate magician, senior magician, great magician, magician, great magician, magister, great magister, and holy magister level. Similarly, starting from the great magician, there are also upper, middle, and lower ranks. I roughly estimated that if I am a human body with the current strength, I am a low-rank swordsman, but with my tyrannical body and super defensive power, I should be able to be counted as a low-rank great swordsman. Ordinary dragon knights should be mid-level light knights (not counting dragons), and the most common fallen angels should also be low-level light knights, and they are also mid-level dark mages. They add dark magic and ride dragons. The Knight of Light has a fight. I should be equal to the strength of an ordinary Beamon now (without going berserk), but I am just equal to a low-ranking great swordsman, and I am too far away from them. No wonder we have more than two thousand Beamon fighters. Adding more than 30 fallen angels can compete with the more than 100 dragon warriors.
The exam will start tomorrow. I don't know if I can successfully enter Tiandu Academy. I must continue to strengthen my strength, otherwise our orc race will have no future. I started the last Heavenly Demon Kungfu practice before the exam with a feeling of apprehension.
Actually, what I don’t know is that the Dragon God Empire also has his troubles. Although Dragon Knights are very powerful, they are not born with tyrannical power like Beamon. With a little training, they can participate in battles when they grow up. However, it is very difficult to train a dragon knight. The Dragon God Empire spent countless resources and energy to barely keep the number of dragon knights at around 100. This is also the reason why he doesn't want to rush to attack the two kingdoms of monsters and beasts. Once his dragon knight is dead, he will have no advantage, and he will definitely be defeated by the alliance of monsters.
I woke up from my practice, changed into a brand new samurai costume, and after a full meal, I arrived at the destination of my trip—Tiandu Academy.
As soon as I arrived at the gate of the college, I was stunned, isn’t it? There are so many people, densely packed, there are thousands of people, but last time I heard from the people at the admissions office that only 300 people will be admitted, that is to say, there will be about ten selections Only one will do.
I took the examination admission ticket I got when I registered—a fast wooden sign with No. 1 written on the front (of course it was No. 1 when I registered more than a month ago), and Tiandu College was engraved on the back. Walking into the college, the playground here is big enough to accommodate so many candidates and there is still a lot of space. The time for the exam has not yet arrived, and the candidates are talking in twos and threes.
A clear voice sounded: "Attention all candidates who come to take the exam, please be quiet, and line up from east to west according to your number plates, with 50 people in each line."
I hurriedly looked around for the speaker, it was so loud, who has such a strong skill. Later I found out that this is a magic broadcast made by amplifying the Philosopher's Stone, which can amplify the sound dozens or hundreds of times.
I searched for a long time and couldn't find it. Forget it, let's line up first. I'm number 1, so I should be the first one in the first row.
The voice came again, with the same words: "Attention candidates who are coming to take the exam, please be quiet, and line up from east to west according to your number plates, with 50 people in each line."
After doing this three times, the team was finally lined up. I counted more than 60 rows and more than 3,000 people. It really is 1 out of 10. Tiandu College is so famous that the entrance exams are so difficult. (Almost all the generals of the Dragon God Empire are students from the four major academies, especially the Dragon Knight. The Dragon Knight is no longer a pure symbol of strength, but also a symbol of honor and power. In the Dragon God Empire, the dragon Knights have great rights, and the lowest title is Viscount. The three marshals are the pillars of the empire, so they have the title of duke. If a commoner wants to become a nobleman, it is definitely the best choice to become a dragon knight. The four colleges are the most solid footholds.)
"Okay, let's keep a little distance between the front, back, left, and right sides, and it's enough for them to be about 1.5 meters apart." After a while, the candidates on the field were lined up according to the requirements.
At this time, more than 20 people came, and it seemed that they were all invigilating teachers, and they didn't know what to test.
"From now on, all candidates should not move, keep standing, and are not allowed to move until they can no longer support, and the last remaining 1,000 candidates will enter the next round." As soon as these words came out, the entire playground immediately exploded Pot, all the candidates began to talk about it.
"What kind of exam is this called? It's like a punishment."
"Damn, this is the first time I heard that there are people who are tested to stand up."
"What the hell kind of school is this? If I knew it, I wouldn't have come so far."
I also thought to myself, this is too easy, it’s no big deal to just stand, forget it, just stand.
"Candidates, please be quiet. Standing is a test of physical strength and will. No matter learning combat skills or magic, you can't do without good physical strength and firm will. If there are candidates who are dissatisfied with the college's examination methods, they can withdraw at any time."
It's really awesome, as expected of a graduate school, let's stand. Although there was a lot of quarrel just now, after hearing this passage, no one is willing to give up. After all, it would be too shameful to quit without showing one's own strength.
At the beginning, everyone felt relatively relaxed. Although it was summer, the morning was relatively cool. However, as time passed, the sun gradually climbed directly above, and the temperature on the playground also rose linearly.
Sweat dripped down my face. Although I didn't feel much discomfort, the hot feeling still made me uncomfortable. Fortunately, I was wearing a light-colored samurai uniform today, otherwise it would be even more difficult. I took a sneak peek at the other candidates, and they were all really high-quality. It had been more than two hours since the morning, and no one had quit yet.
The invigilators were divided into two groups, and each invigilator lasted about an hour, and then they switched to rest. At this time, a female candidate moved slightly, and was immediately noticed by a middle-aged invigilator. Pointing at her, he said, "You, you're out." It's really strict, you can't move even a little.
Another two hours passed, and the temperature gradually dropped with the setting sun, but I had to fight against the hot weather without eating or drinking for a day, my stomach was already out of control, and "grunts, grunts" kept coming from the playground. It’s actually easier to talk about not eating, but it really makes me feel a little uncomfortable to not drink water after a day of sweating. Up to now, more than 200 candidates have withdrawn, less than one-tenth of them. When will this stand.
Time passed really slowly, and it was hard to stay up until night. The breeze blew gently, making me feel much more comfortable. Practicing Tianmo Gong every night has become a habit. Anyway, standing is standing, so why not practice it. I glanced left and right, and almost all the candidates were fighting against their bodies with their eyes closed.
I also closed my eyes, and quietly started to activate the dark power in my body. The first stage of Tianmo Gong will not be released when practicing, so I am not afraid that someone will be able to see it from the outside. I feel the dark elements around me. I am constantly converging, the cold feeling gradually spreads from the skin to the meridians, and then runs slowly according to my exercise route. It is really a comfortable feeling, as if the fatigue of the day has disappeared, and the need for food and water is not. So strong, it turns out that the Tianmo Gong still has this benefit. I urged the Tianmo Gong to run according to a fixed route, and gradually concentrated my mind and entered the center.
It was already morning when I woke up from the samadhi, and apart from some hunger and thirst, there was no discomfort in my body. I looked at the people around me. Although not many quit, all the candidates felt that they were on the verge of collapse, and their faces were all pale. I took a light breath and closed my eyes.
It's noon again, and the weather is still good today, the sun is high in the sky, but for us candidates, this is not a good thing.
With the experience of last night, I quickly adjusted the dark power. Although the effect of practicing Tianmo Kungfu during the day was much worse, it brought me a cold feeling, and it was much easier to cope with the hot weather than yesterday.
In the afternoon, candidates began to withdraw in batches, and most of them were carried out. The sun gradually set, and the clouds in the distant sky became so beautiful under the reflection of the setting sun.
"Every candidate has worked hard. The first round of exams is now over. Candidates are requested to register with the invigilator with their number plates, then go back to rest, and take the second round of exams the day after tomorrow."
It turned out that there were only 1,000 people left who had been eliminated. All the candidates breathed a sigh of relief and sat down on the ground. Of course, I was no exception. My limbs have not been moved, and they have been stiff for a long time. I sat on the ground and moved my numb body slightly.
"Attention candidates, now the invigilator is coming to your place to register one by one, please cooperate well." Sure enough, more than 10 invigilators scattered and began to register the remaining candidates. Of course I was the first one. I handed over the number plate and said, "I am number 1." The invigilator glanced at me and said with a smile, "The young man is very strong." I just smiled and didn't answer.
At this time, many people dressed in chef's clothes came from unknown places, carrying many trays covered with cloth, and some large barrels, dishes and the like. Could it be that they brought us food
Sure enough, the clear voice said: "This is the porridge and steamed buns prepared by the college for you. Candidates, please go back to rest as soon as possible after eating." He grabbed a big bowl, scooped out a bowl of porridge from the bucket and drank it. Comfortable, really comfortable, I have never felt that porridge is so delicious. Before everyone gathered around me, I drank three more bowls in a row. Then I filled a bowl and took three steamed buns and ran to the side to enjoy it.
My stomach is full and my physical strength has recovered a lot. Ah, by the way, it has been two days and the black dragon hasn't been fed yet. I have to go back quickly, it must have something against me. Back at the inn, I quickly asked for some fodder and ran to the stable. The black dragon hissed happily when he saw me, and licked my face with its big tongue, "I'm sorry for you, eat it quickly, it's all good. forage."
Serving the black dragon well, I was so sleepy that I fell asleep on the haystack in the stable.
