"Is there anyone whose assessment mission is to chase and kill Thousand Miles Flower Demon Horse?" A slightly chubby young man shouted.
Just as Chen Zong was thinking about going to the Dragon Pavilion to use the dragon teeth to gather information, someone spoke outside the Coiling Dragon Hall. The voice was loud and clear, reaching everyone's ears. Instantly, many people's faces changed.
Someone seemed to be tempted and walked over.
"I am," the person said directly, once again attracting a lot of attention.
"Do you know who Thousand Mile Horse is? What's his star rank? Where is he now? "Fatty asked three questions in a row." Do you want to know? If you do, give me five dragon teeth and I'll tell you everything about Thousand Mile Horse. "
"Five dragon teeth!" the person who spoke first exclaimed. "That's too much, two at most."
"Two dragon teeth is too little. You know, if I don't tell you everything about Thousand Mile Horse, you won't know where to find him or how strong he is. You won't be able to complete the mission and have no chance of becoming a State Knight," Fatty said with a smile.
Fatty was right. If one didn't know who Thousand Mile Horse was, how could they complete the mission?
"Moreover, if we go to the Dragon Pavilion to trade, I believe the price will definitely exceed five dragon teeth," Fatty said with a smile.
Chen Zong thought for a moment. He strode over and took out five dragon teeth.
Fatty was all smiles when he saw this. He wanted to grab them, but Chen Zong dodged.
"Tell me everything about Thousand Mile Horse, and I'll give you five more dragon teeth," Chen Zong said directly.
"Friend, you don't trust me. Who doesn't know that I, Yang Qifeng, am a very trustworthy person," Yang Qifeng stared at Chen Zong with a strange glint in his eyes, then said with a smile.
"I don't know you," Chen Zong said bluntly.
"Alright, but I know you. You're Chen Zong, the new Earth Pavilion member of the Dragon Pavilion, an Earth Pavilion member with Heaven potential," Yang Qifeng said with a smile. "I believe you won't go back on your word."
With that, Yang Qifeng fished out a piece of paper from his chest pocket and handed it to Chen Zong.
"Thousand Mile Horse's information is recorded here," Fatty said with a smile. This surprised Chen Zong. As if knowing Chen Zong's surprise, Fatty explained, "I didn't know there was a mission to hunt Thousand Mile Horse. I just happened to know some information about this person, so I recorded it..................
Yang Qifeng acted like a merchant. In fact, the family he came from was a family that focused on business. Within the capital city, the Yang Family was a famous and illustrious family. Since childhood, he had been influenced by what he saw and heard. This was also a kind of talent.
Chen Zong quickly flipped open the white paper to look at the small black words inside, while Fatty blocked the view of the others with his body.
. "........
With a cursory glance, Chen Zong basically understood the contents. Indeed, it was as Fatty had said. Chen Zong also very straightforwardly handed five dragon teeth to Fatty.
........ Fatty accepted the dragon teeth with a smile and skillfully put them away. "Brother Chen, if you want to know anything else, you can come to me. I'll definitely give you the best price."
"No problem," Chen Zong also smiled.
Five dragon teeth were expensive or not. It depended on the person. Chen Zong felt that if they knew the mission's content first, then made arrangements accordingly, they might be able to seize the initiative.
For example, if you already knew the mission's content and started to act while others were still investigating, then you might be the one to complete the mission in the end.
"Brother Chen, wait. Can you let me see that piece of paper as well," the person who first spoke to Fatty Yang Qifeng called out to Chen Zong, who was about to leave, and directly asked for the paper.
"Sure. Five dragon teeth," Chen Zong replied, causing the other person's expression to change.
"You're not even giving me face?" The other person's tone turned cold.
Chen Zong didn't reply and strode away.
It was funny. He spent five dragon teeth to get the information. Why should he give it to a stranger for no reason?
Perhaps it was true that one more friend meant one more path. However, the other person's tone and attitude were very bad. He was bossy and arrogant, as if Chen Zong had to give him the paper, or else he would offend him.
This kind of self-righteous person wouldn't receive any gratitude even if he gave the paper to him.
"Give me that paper, and I'll let bygones be bygones."
A figure flashed in front of Chen Zong. Yu Wen Ran blocked his way with his hands behind his back. His eyelids drooped, and his voice was low with a bit of a forceful command. His tyrannical aura directly passed through the air and fell on Chen Zong, bringing great pressure.
The combat strength of a late-stage five-star was indeed terrifying. Chen Zong knew that he might not even be able to take one hit from the other.
However, that didn't mean that Chen Zong would give in. Outside the Coiling Dragon Hall, even if the other person was a prince, he couldn't make a move.
"Five dragon teeth." Chen Zong resisted the other's pressure and smiled fearlessly. Yu Wen Ran's expression changed and became as cold as frost. His eyes emitted a terrifying light as if he wanted to pierce through Chen Zong.
"Good … very good. I'll remember you." Yu Wen Ran resisted the urge to slap Chen Zong to death. His tone was cold. The surrounding air seemed to be hit by a cold wind.
Shaking his head, Chen Zong left the Coiling Dragon Hall and returned to the Guan Mansion's Red Maple Court.
He took out the paper and looked at it carefully.
The information about Hua Xie Ma Qianli was recorded very clearly.
Ma Qianli, origin unknown, thirty years old, extremely lustful. He had tainted dozens of good girls. His nickname was Hua Xie. His combat strength was suspected to have reached the peak of four-star. He was best at light body martial arts. Yesterday, he appeared in the territory of the Three Yuan School in Yongan County, Gulan Province.
"Gulan Province, Yongan County, Three Yuan School in Gulan Province …" Chen Zong immediately packed up. After taking the necessary items, he hurriedly left the Red Maple Court and went to see Marquis Zheng Yuan.
Gulan Province was very close to the capital, but there was still some distance. If one were to travel by foot, it would probably take a few days. Who knew if Hua Xie Ma Qianli would still be in the territory of the Three Yuan School in Yongan County.
After all, a county wasn't that big, but it wasn't small either. If a person wanted to hide, it wouldn't be that easy to find. Sometimes, one might not be able to find it even after spending a few dozen days.
The time limit for the State Knight exam was one month.
It was a race against time.
After Marquis Zheng Yuan knew the purpose of Chen Zong's visit, he didn't say anything unnecessary. He immediately arranged for people to give Chen Zong the best mount in the Guan Mansion: Red Scaled Dragon Horse. Moreover, according to Chen Zong's wishes, he gave him a strong bow and arrows.
It was said that this was a type of horse that had a faint dragon bloodline. It was bred by the Cloud Dragon Dynasty. Only the Marquis' Mansion, Marshal's Mansion, General's Mansion, and other important members of the imperial court were qualified to be bestowed with it by the royal family. It was very precious.
The Red Scaled Dragon Horse was said to be able to carry a thousand pounds and travel ten thousand miles in a day. It was an excellent mount.
The Red Scaled Dragon Horse's body was tall and very strong. It was even bigger than a large water buffalo. The red scales on its body were each the size of an egg. They seemed to have been polished, giving off a very special feeling.
Its mouth was full of sharp teeth, proving that the Red Scaled Dragon Horse ate meat. In fact, the Red Scaled Dragon Horse had to eat a hundred pounds of meat every day. Moreover, it had to be the flesh of demonic beasts. Otherwise, it wouldn't be able to replenish its energy.
Even though it had been tamed, the Red Scaled Dragon Horse's ruby-like eyes still carried a trace of a demonic beast's tyrannical aura. It wasn't easy to ride.
Guan Yunxiao's assessment task was different from Chen Zong's, but he also had to hurry on with his journey. Therefore, he also came to lead a Red Scaled Dragon Horse.
Riding on the back of the Red Scaled Dragon Horse, Guan Yunxiao didn't leave immediately. Instead, he stared at Chen Zong with a cold smile. He wanted to see Chen Zong make a fool of himself.
The Red Scaled Dragon Horse was unruly and difficult to tame. Guan Yunxiao also spent a lot of time to master the technique. He was sure that this was Chen Zong's first time riding the Red Scaled Dragon Horse.
As expected, after Chen Zong jumped onto the back of the Red Scaled Dragon Horse, the Red Scaled Dragon Horse immediately moved. It used all its strength to jump and arched its back. The powerful impact was about to throw Chen Zong off the horse.
The Red Scaled Dragon Horse could easily carry a thousand pounds of weight and run ten thousand miles without stopping. One could imagine its tyrannical strength.
Caught off guard, Chen Zong was almost thrown into the air. Fortunately, he managed to control himself in time. He clamped his legs together and jumped along with the Red Scaled Dragon Horse.
If there was time, Chen Zong wouldn't mind slowly taming the Red Scaled Dragon Horse. However, it was a race against time. The faster the better. He clamped his legs together and activated the tyrannical strength of his physique. It was as if a mountain was pressing down on the Red Scaled Dragon Horse's back, making it harder and harder for the Red Scaled Dragon Horse to move.
The Red Scaled Dragon Horse, which had a trace of the dragon bloodline, was indeed very tenacious. However, under the heavy pressure of Chen Zong's strength, all four of its limbs fell to the ground. Guan Yunxiao was dumbfounded.
"Do you submit?" Chen Zong didn't care whether the Red Scaled Dragon Horse could understand him or not. Strangely, the Red Scaled Dragon Horse actually nodded.
It stood up, and this time it became docile.
"Jia." Clamping his legs together, he urged the Red Scaled Dragon Horse to quickly leave, leaving behind a confused Guan Yunxiao. His face was full of disbelief. One must know that the first time he came into contact with the Red Scaled Dragon Horse, it took him a few hours to tame it.
He felt like he had been slapped in the face again. That kind of sour feeling made Guan Yunxiao extremely angry.
"Jia!" Clamping his legs together, Guan Yunxiao also left the Guan Mansion with a heart full of anger.
Horses could be ridden in the city, but they couldn't run. They could only walk. It took them some time to reach the outer city. The Red Scaled Dragon Horse began to trot.
Other than Chen Zong, there were other Red Scaled Dragon Horses that moved out as well. They all headed towards the city gate.
The people on these Red Scaled Dragon Horses were all people participating in the State Knight Examination. They all had to seize the time to complete their tasks.
After leaving the city, the Red Scaled Dragon Horse began to release its speed and truly run.
The sound of the horse's hooves was like the beat of a drum. Dust flew into the air. In the blink of an eye, the horse had already left. Its speed was even faster than his own full speed.
"Today, I will be able to enter the Three Yuan School in Yong 'an County of Gu Lan Province. Maybe Hua Xie Ma Qian Li is still there." Chen Zong thought to himself. He felt the strong wind blowing against his face. His black hair fluttered, and his robes let out a crisp sound. The scenery on his left and right quickly disappeared like a stream of light, as if it was a picture scroll that was being rapidly drawn.
Gradually, the number of Red Scaled Dragon Horses in the same direction as Chen Zong became fewer and fewer. Among them were Crown Prince Yu Wen Ran and the others. Yu Wen Ran looked at Chen Zong with a vicious gaze. If it weren't for the Red Scaled Dragon Horse's extreme speed, he probably would have dismounted and attacked Chen Zong.
