White Stone City, Tavern.
Because this was the place where Yue Clan's Third Young Master rose to power, the tavern in White Stone City had received a bounty from the Wu Clan Guild. It was completely renovated and a warrior's plaza was built. In the middle of the plaza, there was even a statue of a young man releasing an eagle, hinting that this was the place where Tong Tian Tower's number one warrior, Yue Clan's Third Young Master, rose to power.
Not only did many mercenaries and ambitious youths from the Soaring Dragon Continent come to White Stone City for sightseeing.
Even some of Tong Tian Tower's allies, such as the Dwarves, Taurens, Orcs, Golden Elves and so on, would come under the leadership of Tong Tian Tower's warriors, wanting to see the place where Yue Clan's Third Young Master rose to power.
White Stone City's soil was said to be a souvenir among the various races in Tong Tian Tower.
Gifting a portion of White Stone City's soil was a wish for the other party's descendants to soar.
If it wasn't for Jun Wu You's strict order forbidding digging, the house that Yue Yang and Fourth Mother used to live in would have been demolished.
"Really? A mercenary like me, who only has one rotten life, can also participate in Third Young Master's wedding? What? What did you say? Dragon Knight Corps? Those who pass the test can get a Gold-ranked Wyvern? Can join Third Young Master's Dragon Knight Corps? " A one-eyed mercenary had just returned from a mission with his companions. When he entered the tavern, he heard this news. He was so excited that he started trembling, spilling the wine in his hand all over the table.
"It's like a dream!" The surrounding mercenaries could not believe their ears.
"When have I, Golden Tooth, ever lied? Do you think I'll get paid to lie to you? Moreover, who is Third Young Master? His words are more effective than an imperial edict. You can doubt anyone, but you can never doubt Third Young Master. Besides, you can't understand Third Young Master's greatness and kindness. That's why you have such dirty thoughts to doubt him. Fortunately, you're here. If you were in Shang Jing, you'd definitely be beaten up if you spoke ill of Third Young Master! " An old mercenary with two golden front teeth sat arrogantly on a chair. He, who was usually a scumbag, was now enjoying the honor of the tavern owner personally pouring wine for him. He was the one who brought the news of Yue Clan's Third Young Master forming a Dragon Knight Legion to escort his bride.
"I'm not questioning the Third Young Master. I wouldn't dare. I just couldn't react in time." The one-eyed mercenary quickly defended himself. What a joke! He couldn't afford to be accused of doubting the Third Young Master!
"I don't think you dare!" Golden Tooth laughed loudly. "Otherwise, even if I have to risk my life, I will beat you up."
"Yes, yes." The one-eyed mercenary was more than ten times stronger than Golden Tooth. If they really fought, he could probably kill Golden Tooth with a single slap.
Because of Third Young Master's information, Golden Tooth was like a sacred object that couldn't be violated.
The one-eyed mercenary apologized profusely.
Apologize again and again.
The old mercenary, Golden Tooth, saw that the people in the tavern were attracted by the news he brought and were all crowding around him.
However, he was not in a hurry to tell them. He slowly picked up a crispy peanut with his chopsticks and chewed it with relish. The mercenaries who were eager to know the truth were left out in the cold.
He waited until the mercenaries' necks stretched out before he put down his chopsticks and slammed the table. He said vividly, "Do you think that I, Golden Tooth, got my name for nothing? My information is definitely the latest and most accurate. It has already spread slowly in White Stone City. If it was in big cities like Shang Jing, it would have already spread … Think about it, how could Third Young Master's betrothal gift be simple? What kind of person is Third Young Master? Tsk tsk, he prepared for so long, what he took out would definitely be huge! I say, you guys still don't know everything. If you knew, wouldn't you be scared to death on the spot? I, Golden Tooth, am very well-informed, yet I only know a little bit. However, just a little bit is enough to completely shock me! "
"What's going on with Third Young Master's betrothal gift? Please tell us! "The one-eyed mercenary tried to curry favor with Golden Tooth by pouring wine for him.
"The part that cannot be revealed is the country's secret. It is definitely not something people like us can know. Even those with power and authority, or Third Young Master's close friends and relatives only know a part of it. The most secret is what Third Young Master secretly communicated with the two Emperors. " Golden Tooth drank a cup of wine and his face was flushed red. He slammed the table complacently, "If I, Golden Tooth, did not accept the mission, I would not dare to speak carelessly. Do you guys know who gave me the mission?"
"Could it be Third Young Master?" The mercenaries were all excited when they heard this.
"You guys are dreaming. Third Young Master is a very busy person, and he is also busy with his wedding. How would he have the time to give me a mission? Moreover, this kind of thing does not suit his noble status! "Golden Tooth sneered, looking down on the mercenaries' intelligence.
"Yes, yes, we were thinking too much." The people in the tavern roared with laughter. Indeed, Third Young Master did not know Golden Tooth at all. Why would he give him a mission?
"The person who gave me the mission is Third Young Master's teacher. Speaking of his name, I'm sure you all know him. He is Sir Xia Hou Wei Jie, the most famous Eagle Eye in the Soaring Dragon Continent!" Golden Tooth put on an expression of reminiscence, "Yesterday, Sir Xia Hou gathered all the mercenaries in the Shang Jing Mercenary Guild, including me. He invited us to a meal and gave us a mission on the spot. He wanted us to spread the news of Third Young Master's wedding. Before coming to White Stone City, I had already spread the good news in the four cities. What? You mean the reaction? That would definitely cause a sensation! Everyone in the audience was reluctant to let me leave. If it wasn't for the mission that forced me to take action, I wouldn't have come here. I would have been drunk by the Maple City mercenaries. Alright, pitiful mercenaries, let me tell you. The light of hope is here. It was brought to you by the world's greatest and kindest Third Young Master. If any of you can enter the Dragon Knights or the Dragon Blood Guards, never forget to be grateful. Don't forget Third Young Master's gift! "
"Tell us, tell us in detail!" The one-eyed mercenary and his companions hurriedly cleared the table. They also ordered the tavern owner to bring up a plate of the most famous charcoal demonic beef shank for Golden Tooth to enjoy.
"What about people like us who have no potential and are in our thirties? If we fail our mission, we'll become penniless. I'm afraid we won't even be able to pay the registration fee for the Dragon Knights! "Another bearded mercenary sighed worriedly.
Actually, there were quite a few people who thought the same.
Mercenaries were people who lived on the edge of a blade. No one knew when they would die. Once they had money, they would spend it, gamble, and whore. They had almost no savings.
There was no need to talk about the difficulty of the Dragon Knights' test.
The worst thing was that they wouldn't even have enough to pay the registration fee.
"Ptui!" Golden Tooth suddenly flew into a rage. He pointed at the bearded mercenary's nose and scolded, "How can you use such filthy thoughts to question Third Young Master's good intentions? Who said anything about a registration fee? Do you think Third Young Master would ask for money from mercenaries who are worse than beggars? All he has to do is say the word and someone will pave a path with gold coins for him to walk on. Who said anything about a registration fee? No, not a single coin. It's completely free! "
"It's really completely free?" The mercenaries were stunned. This was the first time something like this had ever happened!
There was no such thing as a free job in this world.
In other words, Third Young Master would bear the cost himself.
In order to form the Dragon Knights, Third Young Master had not only provided opportunities and flying dragons, but he didn't even charge a registration fee?
At this thought, the mercenaries couldn't help but blush. It was indeed rude of them to guess Third Young Master's character from an old point of view. A noble person like Third Young Master was naturally the most generous person in the world. It was the greatest disrespect to imagine him as a greedy vampire. No wonder Golden Tooth was angry!
"Ahem, I was wrong. I really didn't know it was free. Besides, I wasn't being disrespectful to Third Young Master. I was just thinking too much …" The bearded mercenary quickly slapped his own mouth. The other mercenaries also apologized, expressing that they knew Third Young Master was the most generous person. It was just that their words had offended him.
"People without potential, or people of our age, can't enter the Dragon Knights. What should we do then?" Someone asked.
"Listen up. Actually, Lord Xia Hou has already told us that no matter how strong you are now, Third Young Master won't look up to you. Innates are nothing in Third Young Master's eyes! But no matter how useless you are, Third Young Master won't look down on you. He is the greatest, second to none. Just because you are useless doesn't mean you don't have potential. Third Young Master has his own methods to accurately measure a person's potential. Of course, it's important to know your own limits. If you have strength but no potential, don't be too disappointed. After all, everyone is already quite old. If you had potential, it's possible that it's already gone. It's normal that you can't compare to the younger generation … If you can't enter the Dragon Knights, you still have one last hope. That is to enter the Dragon Blood Guards. "Golden Tooth firmly affirmed Yue Clan's Third Young Master's greatness.
"Dragon Blood Guards?" The mercenaries' eyes lit up.
"To be more precise, the Dragonblood Guard is both the easiest and the hardest to enter," replied Golden Tooth.
"How is it the easiest and hardest?" The mercenaries in the tavern looked at each other in dismay. Wasn't this contradictory?
"The easiest is that it's said that anyone can enter. Moreover, this door is always open. It's always recruiting, there's always hope." Golden Tooth first raised his left hand, then his right, increasing the power of his words. "If you say it's the hardest, then it's really the hardest … According to Lord Xia Hou, Third Young Master hopes to give every warrior in the Soaring Dragon Continent a chance. Remember, it's everyone, including us. If anyone among us can pass the test of willpower, no matter how strong they are, then there's hope to enter the Dragon Blood Guards! Compared to the Dragon Knights' requirements for potential and geniuses, the Dragon Blood Guards only require one thing, and that is perseverance. Lord Xia Hou told us that Third Young Master had set this rule. Even if it's a mediocre person, as long as he is willing to do one thing for ten years, as long as he has a firm will, then he can join the Dragon Blood Guards. Because even if it's a mediocre person, as long as his willpower is recognized, Third Young Master can give him a Dragon Blood Pill and let him become a strong warrior! "
When he said this, the entire tavern became deathly silent.
Everyone almost suffocated.
The mercenaries' suppressed breathing and swallowing sounds were especially loud in the tavern.
After an unknown amount of time, only after Golden Tooth had finished eating the Charcoal Demon Ox Knee did the mercenaries regain their senses with great difficulty.
Before Golden Tooth left, he revealed a piece of shocking news. "Third Young Master has reserved three thousand spots for Dragon Knights, but the number of elites from all the families in the Soaring Dragon Continent doesn't even reach three hundred. In other words, anyone among you has a chance. Or, your children, even if they're only three years old, can be brought over to take the test. Maybe they'll become a Dragon Knight in the future! Everyone, I, Golden Tooth, have brought this news to you. I don't have any requests, as long as you always remember one thing. Third Young Master is the greatest. You must always remember to be grateful, and never forget your roots! "
Even after Golden Tooth left the tavern and continued to the next city to spread the news, the mercenaries were still dumbstruck.
Was, was this a dream?
Or was it real?
The Soaring Dragon Continent was shaken by this shocking news that came out of nowhere.
Yue Clan's Third Young Master officially sent betrothal gifts to the Xue Clan, Da Xia Royal Family and Tian Luo Royal Family. The three families also agreed to the Yue Clan's betrothal. The Xue Clan's Eldest Miss, Da Xia Royal Family's Princess Sissi and Tian Luo Royal Family's Fallen Flowers were betrothed to Yue Clan's Third Young Master. Among them, the Xue Clan's Eldest Miss would be the first wife, while Princess Sissi and Princess Fallen Flowers would be the second wives.
The news of the marriage was already shocking enough, but the promise that Yue Clan's Third Young Master made when he sent the betrothal gifts made the entire Soaring Dragon Continent even more excited.
Third Young Master's original words were:
In order to express my respect to the Xue Clan, Da Xia Royal Family and Tian Luo Royal Family, I am willing to form a Dragon Knight Army and lead them to the wedding.
Yue Clan's Third Young Master promised to recruit members from the Dragon Knight Army to the entire Soaring Dragon Continent.
Even the allied races of Tong Tian Tower.
What made people go crazy was that as long as one could pass the test of potential and willpower, no matter what level of strength, identity or age, a warrior of the Soaring Dragon Continent could apply to join the Dragon Knight Army.
Once they entered, other than receiving the best training, there would also be a Wyvern that was not lower than Innate Level 5 and not lower than Gold-ranked waiting to be contracted.
By an ordinary mortal.
Becoming a Wyvern Knight was just a matter of time.
If this news was not enough of a surprise, there was more to come.
This was because even if the candidate's potential was trash and could not reach the standard of a Dragon Knight, there was no need to despair.
The kindest, most generous, greatest and most praised Yue Clan's Third Young Master had even promised such a condition that everyone could not help but be moved.
As long as the candidate's willpower was strong enough, even if their strength was trash, Yue Clan's Third Young Master would still give them a chance. Even if they could not join the Dragon Knight Army, they could still join the 'Dragon Blood Guard Army' and become a glorious Dragon Blood Warrior!
This was the promise that Yue Clan's Third Young Master made when he made the betrothal, a decision that could change the fate of the entire Soaring Dragon Continent!
While the people of the world were shedding tears and praising the Third Young Master, they would never know how shamelessly the Third Young Master swindled the Two-headed Black Dragon of the Beast Valley. How greedily he extracted the Dragon Whistle, Dragon Blood, Dragon Teeth, Dragon Claws, Dragon Horns, Dragon Scales, Dragon Flames, Star Stones, and Moon Gems from the pitiful old dragon. Right now, the Soaring Dragon Continent was in an uproar. Even if someone told the world the truth, no one would believe it.
This was because in the eyes of ordinary warriors, Yue Clan's Third Young Master was the epitome of generosity and greatness.
He was a sacred and inviolable existence!
