Chapter 240 Junming Shen, the upgrade effect of the change method

Chapter 240 Junming Shen, the upgrade effect of the change method (large chapter combined)

Ji Zixuan led the guests off the boat and introduced them to Zhao Xing one by one.

Xia Tong is from the Black Armor Army. He is a "Five-camp Cavalry General" of the fifth rank, in charge of three famous camps of the Black Armor Army: the Dragon Cavalry Camp, the Iron-backed Flying Bear Camp, and the Black Colt Camp.

He is Xia Jing's cousin, and he calls him Brother Zhao as soon as he arrives.

Although he is more than 20 years older than Xia Jing, the age difference is not that big.

Pei Yuanchang is also over fifty years old, isn't he still a close friend of Zhao Xing?

He was the most enthusiastic towards Zhao Xing, acting as if they were all one of his own.

The other two generals, He Wu and Fang Ze, are from the Wu Luo Army and Jiujiang Army respectively.

Both armies belong to the Donghai Corps of Pinghaizhou.

The two armies shared a cave base - Jiujiang Cave, which is also quite famous.

He Wu and Fang Ze are both generals of the fifth rank. They came here for the sake of Princess Youruo, because the Eastern Legion, when operating at sea, whether it is fighting pirates or aquatic creatures, or expedition to Japan, they need to pass through Princess Youruo's territory.

It is more difficult to get supplies in the vast ocean than on land. Princess Youruo has many islands with abundant supplies. These armies must pass through the route, so you have to respect them because they provide you with food.

In addition to being polite, the two men's attitude towards Zhao Xing also contained a bit of curiosity.

It was mainly the way Zhao Xing trained his war horses that attracted their attention.

The generals attach great importance to discipline and obedience, especially for war beasts. It is very difficult to make war beasts possess these two things.

The battle formation with war beasts and the battle formation without war beasts are completely different concepts.

Especially in large-scale battles, the individual's strength can be ignored.

Take a swordsman like Long Xiao for example, if he ran into a level six battle formation, he would be in danger of death.

Qin Hongying of the Bishui Daoyuan is a fourth-grade doctor of Confucian classics! Her own strength is even stronger, having reached the third-grade Yuanhun realm.

The other two, Wen Ji and Zhai Zhong, are also of the fourth rank, but their status is slightly lower than Qin Hongying.

Like Mr. Zhao, Ji Zixuan is also very good at using Princess Youruo as a banner. After a lot of deception, she managed to invite the three big guys to the Gemini Island.

However, they had no interest in the war horses and battle formations, but instead focused on the mountain cat next to Zhao Xing.

One party focuses on the individual, while the other party focuses on the group. It is obviously inappropriate for them to visit together.

Zhao Xing summoned an avatar to receive the two groups of people separately.

"Marquis Yuan Rang, has your mountain cat cultivated its second form?" asked Zhai Zhong.

After the polite words, Zhai Zhong turned his attention to the mountain cat.

"Yes, the second form of the mountain cat is the pure body of wind and thunder." Zhao Xing said.

"Can you show it to me?" Wen Ji asked.

"no problem."

Zhao Xing waved at the mountain cat, causing it to transform.

"Meow~" Aotian Meow was a little reluctant. Transforming was very tiring.

Zhao Xing promised to catch a lot of big fish for it to eat, and only then did the mountain cat agree to perform.

"Meow~~~~~~"

With a roar from the bobcat, its body suddenly changed.

The two-meter-long and one-meter-high body suddenly grew again, increasing to one and a half meters high and five meters long.

After the mountain cat exploded, two air currents, one purple and one blue, appeared from its head and tail, alternating around its body.

After three breaths, the hair on the mountain cat's body shrank into its body, replaced by fine scales.

Only the hair on the limbs still exists, but it has changed from gray, brown and black to purple and blue, with circles of rings that are consistent with the scales on the body.

Changes also occurred on the head and tail. The tail and head were also covered with blue and purple scales.

The fangs and claws grew longer, and with every breath, thunder and strong wind flowed around the body.

At this time, the bobcat had thick limbs and well-developed muscles, as if the cat was wearing a layer of armor, full of metallic texture.

It walked forward a few steps with its head held high, like a victorious cat general.

"It's so magical, really amazing, how did you raise it?" Qin Hongying was also quite interested. "Do you have any secrets?"

Wen Ji and Zhai Zhong also looked at Zhao Xing.

Zhao Xing cupped his hands and said, "The training of mountain cats may be difficult to replicate."

"Does Lord Yuan Rang look down on our Bishui Daoyuan Beast Taming Division?" Wen Ji said dissatisfiedly, "Don't we have the food it eats?"

Zhao Xing said helplessly: "Doctor Wen, please don't misunderstand me. That's not what I meant."

"Then tell me about it." Zhai Zhong said, "How do you raise it?"

Zhao Xing said, "In my hometown, there is a sacred mountain. The mountain cat was originally raised by the mountain god. It took Lingxiu from childhood. It was a one-month-old cub and reached the eighth grade. Less than half a year later, I brought it into the army. With the help of my friends in the army, it reached the eighth grade."

"When he was one and a half years old, he was promoted to the seventh rank because he often followed the military training and ate well."

"It's nothing." Wen Ji said.

Zhao Xing continued, "Later, the mountain cat followed me to explore the Ten Sun Cave Heaven, and the amount of Lingxiu it consumed could be ranked in the top ten."

"..." Wen Ji and Zhai Zhong stopped talking immediately.

"No wonder." Qin Hongying smiled.

It really can't be copied.

They were aware of the spiritual outburst from the Shiyang Cave Heaven.

The number of Lingxiu swallowed by the mountain cat can rank among the top ten. How terrifying is that?
The blood and body of the exotic beasts are inherently stronger than those of humans, and the upper limit of the mountain cat's consumption is also higher than the general sixth grade.

Zhao Xing took the mountain cat to soak in hot springs, enter Tianmen, and later on, they caught the polar night sea bream, which made the mountain cat's body grow bigger.

You may be able to find Lingxiu Hot Spring and Lingxiu Fish of the same quality in Bishui Taoist Temple.

But forget about even thinking about the Cave Heaven Gate, the Soul Yin-Yang Fish, and the Dragon Whale Meat.

At this level, there is not enough food for people, so how can there be any food for cats?

Mr. Zhao was very wealthy at that time, and he gave the mountain cat a full meal, including the dragon whale heart, the yin-yang fish, the dragon whale meat, and the dragon whale bone marrow.

"A fifth-grade mountain cat is rare in the world." Zhai Zhong exclaimed in amazement, "You are really willing to train it."

"The bloodline talent has been developed quite well." Wen Ji touched the mountain cat's bones, "It seems that not only is it well fed, but it is also well trained."

The mountain cat looked disgusted and wanted to slap Wen Ji's old hand away with its claws. Zhao Xing immediately gave it a look.

Aotian Miao could only wave his hands weakly to express his protest:
Add fish! You have to add some big fish!
"Hahaha, what a spiritual big cat." Zhai Zhong saw the mountain cat's expression and couldn't help laughing: "It actually dislikes Wen Ji, hahaha."

Qin Hongying looked at it carefully, then looked at Zhao Xing: "It has broken through the fifth level, is there any other help?"

Zhao Xing clasped his hands and said, "Doctor Qin, it is clear that when it was shaping the pure Yuan body, it did receive help from the Houbian method."

Qin Hongying is worthy of being a third-grade master. She has a sharp eye and can tell at a glance the process of Shanmao breaking through to the fifth-grade master.

"The internal and external training of the Houbian method are all the changes of heaven and earth, and they have great power." Qin Hongying exclaimed: "I never thought that Liu Tianning also has such attainments in the Houbian method, and can also use it to tame beasts."

Qin Hongying thought it was Liu Tianning who helped her and didn't think about Zhao Xing at all.

After all, Zhao Xing is only of the sixth rank, and the transformation methods are all high-level methods. Moreover, the transformation methods that can make strange beasts evolve are even more rare.

Because it is easy to destroy and difficult to rebuild.

Qin Hongying had seen many Si Nong who mastered the attack-type transformation methods, but there were relatively few transformation methods used for cultivating exotic beasts.

Zhao Xing said: "I dare not deceive Dr. Qin. Shanmao's advancement happened in recent months. It was not caused by my master."

"Oh?" Wen Ji looked at Zhao Xing, "You don't mean to say it's you, do you?"

Zhao Xing nodded: "It is the junior."

Zhai Zhong was surprised and asked, "You are only at the sixth rank, and you have mastered this kind of transformation method?"

Ji Zixuan said beside him: "Master Zhai, Master Wen, the mountain cat has eaten so much spiritual beauty, let alone Senior Brother?"

When Zhai Zhongwen Ji heard this, he suddenly understood.

Yes, mountain cats always eat until they are full, and Zhao Xing will only eat more.

The changes in the cave heaven are rare even in ten thousand years, so it is not surprising that it gave rise to a genius like Zhao Xing.

Qin Hongying said: "Zhao Xing, since you have mastered this kind of magic, our trip will not be in vain."

"I will send some animal trainers over later to hand over their pets to you."

"Let's sign a 50 million contract first and see what happens. Are you willing?"

How could Zhao Xing not be happy? These were the political achievements he wanted.

Money or not is a small matter. In the future, he can have one more item on his resume: he once provided powerful war beasts to the Beast Taming Department of the Bishui Taoist Academy.

These will be the capital for promotion in the future.

"Thank you, Dr. Qin, Dr. Zhai, and Dr. Wen. I will definitely do my best and live up to the support of the Taoist Academy."

…………

While Zhao Xing was chatting with the three doctors from Bishui Taoist Academy, his clone brought Fang Ze, He Wu and Xia Tong to visit Tuquan Palace.

"Today, Tuquan Palace raises four types of war horses, namely Longxu horse, Tianma, Zidian, and Huolie."

"Which one would you like to see first?" Zhao Xing asked.

"Let's take a look at Longxu and Zidian." Fang Ze said.

They had already seen the Pegasus and the Flamingo when they greeted them before.

"I agree." He Wudao.

"I have no objection." Xia Tong smiled. He would place the order anyway, and Zhao Xing just needed to focus on serving the customers from these two armies.

"Okay, everyone please follow me." Zhao Xing led the way.

He Wu and Fang Ze were looking forward to it.

Because the Blue Pegasus and the Flamingo can only be considered as the bloodlines of fine horses, while the bloodlines of Purple Lightning and Longxu are at the level of famous horses.

The Great Zhou divided war horses of excellent bloodlines into three levels.

Horse, name, god.

Zi Dian and Long Xu are both famous horses.

Flamingo and Cyan Pegasus, on the other hand, are just of the bloodline of fine horses.

There are only ten kinds of Shenma. Fang Ze and He Wu don't expect to get the ten great Shenma because they can't buy them either.

What kind of family wealth would require a horse as a mount?

"If the Dragon Whisker Horse and the Purple Lightning Horse can perform as well as the Flame Horse and the Pegasus, I will reserve some to take back. What about Brother Fang?" He Wu asked.

"Well, for the sake of Princess Donghai, we have to buy some." Fang Ze said.

The Princess of the East China Sea they were referring to was Princess Youruo, because the water tribes were more accustomed to calling her the 'Princess of the East China Sea'.

They have been dealing with aquatic creatures in the East China Sea for many years, so they are used to calling her the Princess of the East China Sea.

When he arrived at Tuquan Palace, Tao Anchun had been waiting for a long time.

Now that the [Divine Chosen Department] has been restored, he is also responsible for assisting Zhao Xing in training war horses.

"Tao Anchun, let the dragon-whisker horse out." Zhao Xing said.

"Yes."

Tao Anchun blew a whistle, and then the fence mechanisms opened one after another.

“Da~da~da~da~da~da~da~”

The sound of horse hooves.

One after another, horses with dragon beards walked out of the room.

The dragon-whisker horse is the overlord among strange beasts. It has a body like a horse but a long beard like a dragon, and is elegant and extraordinary.

His eyes were like bright stars, shining so brightly that one dared not look directly at them.

Its whiskers dance with the wind, giving it the ability to control wind and clouds; when its four hooves step on the ground, the mountains and rivers shake.

His whole body is covered with golden dragon scales, revealing endless power and majesty.

Among famous horses, the Longxu Horse has the most powerful qi and blood power.

The battle formation composed of soldiers riding on dragon-whisker horses can really crush the city walls, and is extremely popular among middle-level generals.

"Assemble! Line up!"

Zhao Xing roared.

After being taken out of the cage, the dragon-bearded horses were not in a hurry to go out, but lined up in the wide corridor outside the door first.

When all the horses had left the room, the Longxu horses formed four rows and marched out of the Longxu Palace in unison.

When passing by Fang Ze, He Wu and Xia Tong, he didn't even look at them.

Fang Ze and He Wu were amazed by this scene.

"Why do I feel like I'm in a military camp instead of a stable?"

"Even military camps may not be this clean and tidy." Fang Ze looked at a stable, "Wow, look at where the horses live. The hay beds inside are all neatly laid out."

"Zhao Xing is really good at taming animals."

The two communicated privately through voice transmission.

Zhao Xing looked at their expressions and knew that they were very satisfied.

In other words, these horses are not covered with quilts, otherwise Master Zhao would have made these horses fold into tofu blocks.

Of course, this is just a thought, Zhao Xing is not to such an extent of obsessive-compulsive disorder.

The neatly arranged hay inside was not made by the horses themselves, but was swept and cleaned by someone every day. The same was true for the feeding troughs and manure troughs.

"clatter!"

As the last sound of horse hooves fell, outside the Longxu Palace, one thousand five hundred eighth-grade and twenty seventh-grade Longxu horses stood quietly with their heads held high, waiting to be inspected.

"My three lords, what else do you want to see?" Zhao Xing asked.

"Battle formation." Fang Ze said immediately, "We want to see the effect of the dragon beard horse forming a blood battle formation."

"Okay." Zhao Xing nodded and immediately whistled.

"Boom~"

The dragon-bearded horse, which was still motionless in the previous second, neighed, and the next second, the blood in its body began to burn.

They gathered towards the twenty seventh-rank leaders.

The qi and blood are like clouds, and the dragon's whiskers are swimming.

Soon, a phantom of a blood-filled dragon appeared above the heads of the twenty dragon-bearded horses.

The shadow flickered four times and gradually solidified.

A total of twenty blood and energy dragons were circling above Longxu Palace.

"Dragon armor protects the body!"

Zhao Xing shouted loudly.

Boom~
All the dragon-beard horses immediately activated their innate skills. A faint golden light suddenly seeped out of the pores on their bodies, and then they intertwined densely to form a secret scale armor.

It looks like it's wearing a layer of armor.

This not only enhances defense, but also increases strength and speed.

The twenty blood-energy dragons in the sky have grown stronger and have reached the threshold of a fifth-level battle formation.

Fang Ze and He Wu looked at each other, shocked.

After seeing this scene, they had already decided to place the order in their hearts, and in order to negotiate the price later, they tried hard not to show any expression.

In fact, he had already quickly transmitted the message: "The bloodline of his dragon beard horse feels stronger than that of ordinary dragon beard horses."

"If you take away the feeling, it is stronger than the others. The strength of the battle array is at least one-fifth higher."

"Why is this happening?"

"Two possibilities." Fang Ze said, "Either Zhao Xing usually feeds better food and has the right nutritional balance."

"Or maybe the dragon beard horse has been trained and its cooperation has greatly improved."

"Of course, the battle formation formed by using 30% of one's strength is different from the battle formation formed by using 60% of one's strength."

Fang Ze couldn't help but ask, "How did he get the dragon-bearded horses to work so well together? These horses of his have never even been on the battlefield."

If it fights on the battlefield all year round, the Dragon Beard Horse will be accustomed to the battlefield and battle formations after years of fighting and will naturally be able to exert greater power.

Zhao Xing's dragon-whisker horses may not be as good as those war horses that have been on the battlefield all year round.

But in terms of 'factory status' alone, it is already better than their channel partners.

If we take them back and let them run in with the knights, these war horses will be put to use soon.

Because Zhao Xing has been trained very well.

However, Fang Ze and He Wu still wanted to find fault.

There is no way. If I don't find fault, the price won't go down.

"Marquis Yuan Rang," Fang Ze said, "Do these dragon-bearded horses of yours only obey your orders?"

"Also, you used the Mantra of All Beasts and the Slave Seal, right? If our knights were to control them, would they still be able to achieve such a good effect?"

Zhao Xing smiled and said, "General Fang, I didn't use the Mantra of Ten Thousand Beasts just now. I did use it before, but I didn't need it anymore."

"Can I give them orders?" He Wu asked.

"Okay." Zhao Xing waved his hand, and Tao Anchun immediately brought over a tray with a row of command arrows on it.

"But the dragon beard horses are not used to you yet. You can only approach them if you wear this order."

The dragon-bearded horse has a fierce temperament. In fact, there is no docile horse among the famous horses, and they are all difficult to tame.

Zhao Xing used the order to save time for familiarization and running-in. He could use the horses immediately after receiving the order. This was also a common practice.

After riding for a while, you naturally don't need to wear the command arrow anymore.

Seeing that Fang Ze couldn't find any fault with it, He Wu still didn't give up and said, "Maybe I can try riding it? To experience the degree of fusion of the battle formation?"

Zhao Xing smiled and said, "Of course."

Without saying a word, He Wu inserted the command arrow behind his neck, then leaped onto the leading seventh-grade dragon-whisker horse.

He Wu was a bit cunning. When he sat on the horse, he circulated his energy and blood to transfer the weight of each of his golden bones to the dragon-beard horse.

This sitting immediately made the seventh-grade dragon-whisker horse's legs tremble and its body sank.

"You!" Tao Anchun's eyes suddenly widened with anger.

"Don't worry about it." Zhao Xing stopped Tao Anchun.

Since you want people to 'test drive' the car, you can't let them be gentle.

As long as the dragon-bearded horse was not crushed to death or injured, Zhao Xing would not care.

War horses are meant to be used, they are meant to follow their masters into the battlefield.

Naturally, he must be able to withstand his master using martial arts on him.

If it can't even withstand this little bit of hardship, it's not worthy of being called a war horse.

He Wu still had his limits. He just wanted to weigh the quality of the person, not to deliberately make things difficult for him.

"Ang~"

The dragon-bearded horse let out a clear dragon roar, and the blood-filled dragon in the sky also roared along.

He then carried He Wu up and made him stand upright.

He Wu secretly said, "What a good horse!", then stretched out his hand, clenched his fist, and raised it above his head.

He wants to join the Qi and Blood Battle Formation.

Become the master of the battle formation.

Originally, the core of the battle formation was the BMW under his crotch.

Now that he has to take over the battle formation, it is equivalent to taking over the life and death of the entire herd of horses.

Because once he is in control, the damage he suffers will be transferred to the herd and shared.

Normally speaking, the initial stage of battle formation training is the most troublesome time, because the resistance of the wild horse will be very strong.

I won't give up my life easily.

As expected, He Wu's qi and blood encountered resistance and were not accepted by the qi and blood dragon.

The herd of horses below also became restless.

Zhao Xing remained unmoved and just watched quietly.

He Wu fell into deep thought. He switched the method of circulating Qi and blood to make himself more compatible with the Qi and Blood Dragon Battle Formation.

The resistance suddenly weakened after a quarter of an hour.

The commotion among the horses died down.

He Wu looked a little stunned, then he patted the dragon-bearded horse lightly.

The entire horse formation followed his wishes and moved forward one step at a time.

"Change!"

He Wu stretched out his hand and pointed, and a blood dragon in the sky suddenly changed into a huge blood spear.

Now, it was the battle formation he was familiar with.

Although it was a little shaky and could collapse at any time, He Wu was still surprised that he was speechless when he successfully changed the formation for the first time.

On his first attempt, he didn't last long, after all, this was a pair of quasi-war horses, not a real war horse.

Can't withstand his extensive torment.

After He Wu fell off the horse, he returned to the steps.

He opened his mouth, wanting to say something wrong, but ended up saying, "Marquis Yuan Rang, name your price."

There's no way. I really can't find fault against my will.

He Wu is a soldier, not a businessman, and he is not the kind of person who values ​​profit over morality.

Are you still going to find faults and bargain for a warhorse like this?
If he really did this against his conscience, he would have to slap himself in the face when he woke up in the middle of the night.

"General, you can also see that the Gemini Dragon Horse Prison provides elite training," Zhao Xing said.

"So, the price for an eighth-grade horse is 40,000, and for a seventh-grade horse is 200,000. The price will be settled with military points. It will be a public transfer, and no bargaining will be accepted."

This price is more than twice as expensive as the normal market price.

But He Wu thought it was worth it.

But he still asked: "If my Wu Luo army wants a large quantity, can there be a discount?"

Zhao Xing smiled and said, "The price cannot be lowered, but you are the first batch of Bole. If you buy a lot, you can give a few more good horses to the generals in the army."

He Wu said, "I will first order one thousand eighth-grade dragon-whisker horses! Five hundred seventh-grade dragon-whisker horses, but I need to take these back immediately. Our army has a demand for 10,000 of them in the near future. How would Yuan Ranghou want to pay?"

"This transaction must be settled immediately. No credit is allowed. If you place an order later, you will need to pay a 30% deposit, and the balance will need to be paid when you come to pick up the goods."

"make a deal."

"Wait a minute!" Fang Ze couldn't sit still anymore. Why did you leave my Jiujiang Army and start negotiating on your own?

A smile appeared on Zhao Xing's lips: "General Fang, what instructions do you have?"

"Marquis Yuan Rang, how many dragon-bearded horses do you have here?"

"The adult dragon-beard horses currently available are all here. There are only a little over a thousand of the seventh and eighth grades combined." Zhao Xing said, "However, in half a year, this number can be increased to about eight thousand."

"My Jiujiang Army needs even more equipment, at least 50,000 horses!" Fang Ze said. "I also need to bring back a batch of mature horses, you can't give them all to the Luowu Army."

"Old Fang, just brag. What does the Jiujiang Army need so many dragon-bearded horses for? You have mostly navy troops, so where do you get so many equipment requirements?"

"Don't worry about that. Anyway, I want these horses!"

"Asshole, you want it just because you want it? I was obviously the one who asked first!" The general got angry, and the two people who were originally friendly started quarreling.

Tao Anchun, who was standing next to him, burst into tears when he heard this.

If the occasion wasn't inappropriate, he would have laughed out loud right now.

The generals of two powerful armies are fighting for the Gemini Dragon Horse Prison, and this day has finally come!

"Okay, both of you." Zhao Xing advised, "We are all brothers in arms, don't hurt the harmony."

"I also come from the military, so I can understand the feelings of the two generals."

He Wu and Fang Ze immediately stopped arguing and looked at Zhao Xing.

"Of this batch of dragon-whisker horses, each of you will take half back." Zhao Xing made the decision.

"If the superiors are satisfied, we will place an order based on purchasing needs."

"What I can guarantee is that in the next few years, the Gemini Dragon Horse Prison will be able to fully meet your needs."

"Okay." He Wu and Fang Ze agreed immediately.

Zhao Xing arranged for Tao Anchun to take the two of them to the government office for a detailed discussion.

Only Xia Tong is left here.

"Brother, sorry for waiting." When facing Xia Tong, Zhao Xing became much closer and called him brother directly.

"It's okay, it's okay." Xia Tong said cheerfully, "Qilin'er is right. Even if you come here to raise horses, it's extraordinary."

"These two guys are very picky. I almost scolded them just now, but unexpectedly, these dragon whisker horses made them shut up."

Zhao Xing said modestly: "It was all thanks to the support of the elders from all sides, especially Princess Youruo. Without her, I would not have been able to achieve such results."

"Princess, you are helpful, but you don't have to be so modest. Even if others have so many young animals, they may not be able to tame them into good ones."

Zhao Xing did not dwell on this topic: "Brother, what kind of war horses do you need, and how many?"

Xia Tong pondered, "Is the purple lightning horse you trained also at this level?"

Zhao Xing said: "Zi Dian is good at speed and is the fastest among the famous horses. It and Longxu each have their own advantages and disadvantages, but I can guarantee that the training results are the same."

"If that's the case, I'll take all of your purple lightning horses back to the Black Armor Army, and reserve another 20,000."

Zhao Xing clasped his hands and said, "Brother, please do what you can. If the Black Armor Army does not have this need..."

He and Xia Jing have a good relationship, but he can't add burden to others for no reason.

It's not like I can't get by, so there's no need to do this.

Xia Tong waved his hand and said, "Since the Pingman War has progressed, the offensives of the major war zones have slowed down, and the counterattacks of the four major royal courts in the Southern Wilderness are also gradually increasing."

"The five great caves are constantly increasing their troops and expanding their strength. Not to mention 20,000 purple lightning horses, it is possible that another 200,000 will be sent into the battlefield in the future."

"My Xuanjia Army really has this need." Xia Tong said.

"Doesn't the Xuanjia Army have its own high-level channels?" Zhao Xing asked.

"Yes." Xia Tong said, "We and the Tiger Dragon Army both have purchase quotas on Yalong Island, but with King Liang taking office, these quotas have been reduced this year because King Liang has coordinated military supplies, even the source of war beasts."

"Starting this year, it will not be so easy for our dragon cavalry battalion to replenish its dragon beasts. At least it will not be as convenient as before."

“So, it’s very important to find an alternative channel.”

Hearing him say this, Zhao Xing nodded.

When King Liang came to power, he took control of all the legions on the Pingman battlefield.

The power to allocate military supplies is something he must grasp first after taking office.

Otherwise, there is no way to control the entire Pingman Army.

When the position of Commander-in-Chief of Pingman appears, the will of each army will have to obey him, and they can no longer fight wherever they want as before.

After all, there are not as many favorable battles to fight on the battlefield as before.

The offensive momentum was hampered and casualties increased.

Even during the training phase, in order to reduce unnecessary consumption, it is necessary to integrate the forces of various armies, and resource integration is the top priority.

Since the Black Armor Army really needed it, Zhao Xing did not persuade them any further.

When leaving the next day.

Xia Tong, Fang Ze, and He Wu all signed the [Spiritual Contract] with the Longma Prison of the Gemini Islands.

This type of contract is considered to be the most binding contract in the Great Zhou Dynasty.

Because the paper used for the contract is made of relatively high-quality materials, and it also needs to be witnessed by the God of Fortune.

"Your Excellency is wise!" Tao Anchun, Dong Yuanqiu, Bao Shiqiu, and Cao Jiang were all excited.

The three generals finalized a total transaction amount of 165 million on the spot! When these three return, there is a high possibility that they will bring more than 10 billion orders to the Longma Prison of Gemini Island!

The Bishui Taoist Academy also gave an order of 50 million. Of course, this market is relatively high-end and it is difficult to scale up because only Zhao Xing knows how to carry out Jingleihou's reforms.

But if you become famous, you will never lack business.

These are all real political achievements.

"You are all too excited." Zhao Xing said with a smile, "This is just the beginning. In the future, more and more people will come to my Gemini Island Longma Prison."

It was indeed just the beginning. The investment in his Twin Dragon Horse Prison had exceeded 1.5 billion, and Zhao Xing had to continue investing the 200 million he had just received.

Only when the scale is fully expanded can he train a group of elite war beasts to participate in the Ten Thousand Beasts Competition.

There is a possibility that Jingleihou's reform will fail, and he has to increase the base to achieve the desired goal, otherwise it will be easy for him to end up like the supervisor.

Of course, there is no way the previous inspector can be compared with him, as their starting points are different.

"Everyone must work together to develop the Shuangzi Longma Prison better and better."

"We will follow your orders, sir." The officials of Longma Prison bowed one after another.

On the other side, Zhao Xing was chatting with Ji Zixuan.

"I have brought so many orders to you this time. When does you plan to train me?" Ji Zixuan said with anticipation.

Senior Brother Zhao can train a horse so well, so training her shouldn’t be a problem.

"Have you started practicing gluttony?"

"I have practiced it. I started practicing it at the end of last year, but I have only reached the first level." Ji Zixuan said, "This secret method is too difficult."

Zhao Xing looked at the almanac and thought: "The training of the gluttonous method requires a reasonable diet. When the autumn harvest comes, you can take some time to visit the Twin Island. I will help you speed up the practice of this method."

"By then, there should be a batch of crops I planted that will be mature, enough for you to grow a few floors."

"Okay, thank you, senior brother." Ji Zixuan smiled happily with curved eyebrows.

"Don't be so quick to thank me." Zhao Xing said, "This will be very difficult, just don't blame me when the time comes."

"Junior sister, am I someone who is afraid of hardship?" Ji Zixuan said firmly, "Don't worry, senior brother. No matter how hard or tired I am, I won't complain."

…………

Time flies, and it is already late July.

Zhao Xing did not have to handle the military orders himself, because at the beginning of last month, Chongming Prefecture allowed the Gemini Dragon Horse Prison to resume the [Divine Selection Department].

Tao Anchun, Cao Jiang and others under his command are all capable of being used.

Zhao Xing can also free up some energy to deal with the orders from Bishui Taoist Academy.

"I am the only one who can meet the requirements of the Taoist Academy's Beast Taming Department. I have only used my Jinglei Hou transformation method once on a mountain cat, so I still need more reference samples."

Zhao Xing came to a wasteland area on Lu Island.

The sky here is covered with thunderclouds, and the power of thunder is very strong.

Since the Chinese New Year, Zhao Xing has set aside several experimental areas for himself when building the Ksitigarbha Guiyuan Array.

The thunder pool here is modeled after the Wanli Thunder Pool in Shiyang Cave.

However, the range and intensity of thunderclouds cannot be compared with those in Shiyang Cave.

"This area has been experiencing the Jingzhe solar term for six consecutive months, and the thunderclouds have not dissipated for six full months."

"I can use the Jingleihou transformation here more freely." Zhao Xing said secretly.

"Boom~"

In all directions of the wasteland, many strange beasts appeared in groups.

This is Zhao Xing's Wanfa Straw Man, who drove some of the inferior beasts on Lu Island over here.

"There were originally 3.7 million low-grade exotic beasts on Lu Island, but that was the data from the beginning of November last year."

“After the Ksitigarbha Guiyuan formation transformed Ludao, it has become a secondary treasure land. Now the number has greatly increased.”

"There are quite a few exotic wild animals that have been refined."

Zhao Xing did not count the exact number because there were no related tasks for the time being. The main business of Longmajian was still to train war horses and dragon beasts.

However, now there are more orders from the Bishui Taoist Academy, and the pet beasts of the Taoist Academy's Beast Taming Department are very diverse. What Zhao Xing has to do now is to verify Jinglei Hou's reforms.

It would be better to open a door from the Taoist temple.

"The 50 million order was just used by Qin Hongying to test the waters. The pets sent here for training will not be of high level."

"If low-quality exotic beasts can withstand my Thunderbolt Transformation, then high-quality exotic beasts have a greater chance of being able to withstand it."

Zhao Xing’s main goal now is to prevent the pet from being killed.

Because his Jingleihou transformation has reached the high-level eighth level, its power is too great and he needs to control it well.

Of course, if the power is too small, it will not achieve the desired effect.

"roar~"

"Ow~"

"Mea~"

"Om~~"

The sounds of various strange beasts gathered in this wasteland.

Zhao Xing's original body was floating in the sky, and above his head was an eighth-level knowledge realm 'Qingzhe' solar term order.

"Meow!" When Aotian Meow saw this scene, he immediately hid far away.

It suffered a lot when it advanced, and it doesn't want to experience the same thing a second time.

"Boom boom boom!"

Thunderclouds began to gather momentum.

Zhao Xing sat cross-legged in the clouds and began to control the thunder to descend.

The strange beasts below seemed to sense something and fled in all directions.

But there was no time to escape from the area.

"Boom!"

A loud thunderclap sounded from the sky.

"Puff~"

Among the group of unicorn wild boars, a strange beast equivalent to the seventh level of Ju Yuan suddenly fell to the ground, and its whole body turned into charcoal.

“Om!!”

The herd of unicorn wild boars suddenly became even more panicked.

“Boom, boom, boom~~~~~”

The lightning began to become dense, sometimes big, sometimes small, and in different shapes. Some were straight lines, and some were like cracks, forming mysterious textures in the sky.

Others turned into thunder balls and chased after the wild boars.

“Boom! Boom!”

More than 3,000 wild boars suffered immediately.

No matter how fast they ran, they could not outrun the lightning, and there was wasteland all around, with nowhere to hide.

About a quarter of an hour later, Zhao Xing landed on the ground.

Start checking the results.

Coke, coke, coke... pig-shaped coke is everywhere.

After finally seeing a hint of golden color, Zhao Xing ran over to take a look and was immediately speechless.

This is a roast suckling pig.

"Ah, it's still too powerful. This one is a little weaker, but it was also roasted golden by the lightning."

In line with the principle of not wasting food, Zhao Xing sat down and ate the roast suckling pig while thinking about the spell he had just cast.

After eating a roasted pig, Zhao Xing flew into the thundercloud again to cast a spell.

"Boom!"

Jingleihou's reforms continued.

…………

As time went by, Zhao Xing gradually became more proficient in applying Jingleihou's reforms.

His Jingleihou Reform had already reached a very high level of Taoism, and was forcibly pulled to the high-level eighth level within Tianmen.

However, he seldom uses it and is now applying it in practice, slowly finding the trick.

"The Jingleihou transformation method has a higher chance of success against earth-attributed exotic beasts. It is usually used on mid-grade exotic beasts."

"I'm not concerned with the success rate now, but with reducing the power while ensuring the success rate."

The basic power of Jing Lei Hou's reform is there, and those who are too weak cannot withstand this blow.

How low is the probability for a low-quality beast to complete its transformation? Zhao Xing didn't know.

But the strange phenomenon observed in the Solar Terms Monument was that billions of insects and beasts died before a earth dragon was born.

An earthworm the size of an index finger transforming into a hundred-foot-long earth dragon, the probability of such a leap in life level is extremely low, as low as one in a billion.

Of course, visions that demonstrate power naturally present ideal situations.

Theoretically, the transformation method can transform ordinary, inferior earthworms into medium-quality earthworms, but the probability is too low.

"The low-grade unicorn wild boar has the earth attribute. If we use it as an example, we can't control it well. It will be even more difficult to control other exotic beasts using the Jinglei Hou transformation method."

"Carefully observe the changes in the five elements' internal energy and summarize the methods." Zhao Xing continued to cast the spell.

…………

When Master Zhao decided to practice magic, the one-horned wild boars were in trouble.

On the first day, more than 300 one-horned wild boars were killed by thunder.

The next day, more than 500 one-horned wild boars were killed by thunder.

On the third day, Zhao Xing expanded the scope and killed 1,700 one-horned wild boars.

On the fifth day, three thousand five hundred and forty-two.

Day 7…

……

Since confirming the order from Bishui Taoist Temple in early July, Zhao Xing has been chopping unicorn wild boars.

The split lasted until late July.

The number of one-horned boars in the herd and the number of dead one-horned boars exceeded 80,000.

The Lei Chi wasteland was littered with wild boar carcasses.

Of course, it wasn't all corpses.

A few one-horned wild boars were lucky enough to advance and become the leaders of the one-horned wild boar group.

But after becoming the leader, he still has to face more powerful lightning.

Now this group of wild boars are completely undergoing a tribulation.

If you can get through it, you will live; if you can’t, your life will be over.

And Zhao Xing also entered into a state of trance in the practice of chopping pigs.

Constantly adjust the power of Jingleihou's transformation and the casting environment.

In this kind of selfless practice, the success rate is gradually increasing.

He had no idea that it was already July 27th.

The day had arrived when Bishui Daoyuan had agreed to send someone over.

…………

July 27th, at noon.

Ling Ruoxue took a flying boat to the Lei Chi Wasteland to look for Zhao Xing.

Because Zhao Xing's original body began to practice in a trance, all his clones were offline and could not be awakened even if they were called.

There was a guest at the Gemini Dragon Horse Prison, so Tao Anchun could only send Ling Ruoxue to find Zhao Xing.

"What's going on here?"

At this time, Ling Ruoxue had just flown into the Leichi wasteland area when she saw charcoal-roasted wild boars all over the ground, including burnt-skinned wild boars, roasted suckling pigs, and disabled wild boars...

"Lord Zhao, how many one-horned wild boars have been killed..." Ling Ruoxue couldn't help but shudder.

The scene was too horrific. There were corpses everywhere, piled up like mountains. Some of the deaths were extremely strange, as if some strange changes had occurred to their bodies.

For example, the single horn on the pig's head was gone, but two legs grew...and its eyes seemed to be shining.

"Boom!"

A loud thunderclap frightened Ling Ruoxue. She saw a four-meter-tall wild boar leader trapped in place on the hillside in front of her. When the thunder passed by, it collapsed with a loud bang.

The flash of lightning illuminated Zhao Xing's figure. Under the gloomy sky, Zhao Xing's face also looked gloomy.

He frowned, and Ling Ruoxue looked at him and subconsciously took a few steps back.

Zhao Xing seemed to have noticed Ling Ruoxue. He suddenly raised his head and glanced at her.

The next moment his figure disappeared and suddenly appeared on her flying boat.

"what--"

Ling Ruoxue was frightened to death, her body stumbled backwards and hit the cabin.

"You, are you a human or a ghost? Don't come over here!"

Zhao Xing was speechless.

He pointed to the sky, making the surrounding light brighter. A skylight opened in the clouds, and a beam of sunlight dispelled the haze and shone on the flying boat.

"Do you think I am a human or a ghost now?"

"Master Zhao, is it you?" Ling Ruoxue covered her chest.

"Of course it's me." Zhao Xing said unhappily.

These Wen Si Nongs are too incompetent.

The imperial court should really provide half a year of military training for every Wen Sinong before they take up their posts.

Ling Ruoxue is already at the seventh rank, yet she only has this much courage.

Is it that scary?

When he was killing turtles in Shiyang Cave and Pingman battlefield, others didn't even frown when they saw it!

"You are no longer grazing in Tianma Lake. What do you want to talk to me about?" Zhao Xing asked.

"Uncle Tao asked me to..."

"Use your job title when you're working," Zhao Xing reminded.

"Oh, it was Master Tao who asked me to come and find you." Ling Ruoxue said, "He said that the people from Bishui Daoyuan are coming soon, and they need you to contact them. I'm nearby, so I came here."

"I understand. You can go back." Zhao Xing closed his eyes and reactivated the clone of Wanfa in Si Zheng Mansion.

…………

In the East China Sea, a magic beast ship was traveling through the clouds.

From the lower three floors of the warship, there was a faint sound of beast roaring.

On the upper two floors, there were dozens of young men and women in emerald green Taoist robes moving around.

They are all students of the Bishui Taoist Academy, and all come from the Beast Taming Department.

They were all talking at this time.

"Have you heard that the reason why the Taoist Academy signed a contract with the Twin Dragon Horse Prison this time was because of Senior Sister Ji."

"A fifty million training contract. Senior Sister Ji is really getting better and better."

"Senior Sister Ji is the most outstanding graduate of the 19th year of the Jingxin calendar. She is now at the Tiangang realm. This is nothing."

"I heard that Senior Sister was named Princess Chenxi last year. I just found out that she is actually the granddaughter of King Chenglan."

"Really? Senior Sister is too low-key. I've never heard her mention it."

"It is said that the chief of the Gemini Dragon Horse Prison is also a lover of Senior Sister, Kukuku..."

"What? Tell me in detail..."

"..."

On the top floor of the ship, Ji Zixuan was looking at the two young girls in front of her.

"Zi Yan, Ming Hui, you need to seize this contract training opportunity."

"I place you in the first two positions in this training contract. Your pets will be trained first."

"Yes." Su Minghui and Shang Ziyan responded respectfully.

They were very self-aware, because among the current batch of students in the Beast Taming Department, their performance was only average.

Compared with many children of princes and nobles, they were of ordinary background, average financial resources, and just average talent. Only their hard work caught the attention of this senior sister.

Therefore, in this contract training, they were placed in the two front positions.

The people below have the leisure to gossip about this and that, but they are only thinking about how to make the best use of this opportunity.

Shang Ziyan bravely asked: "Senior sister, what kind of person is Zhao Xing, the chief officer of the Gemini Dragon Horse Prison, Yuan Rang Hou? How can we gain his appreciation?"

Ji Zixuan said: "Zhao Xing is a contemporary genius, he appreciates positive people."

"When you get off the ship, bring your pets with you and cooperate well."

“If you have the opportunity, you should strive to show your talent.”

"If you can be appreciated by him, you will be very lucky in this life."

"Sister, is Marquis Yuan Rang really so amazing?" Su Minghui bravely asked out of curiosity, "I heard that he is only a sixth-grade, the same realm as you, but you still respect him so much. It's really curious."

Ji Zixuan smiled and said, "It was thanks to his help that I was able to reach the sixth level so quickly."

"Not to mention other deeds, last year, he defeated the strongest sixth-grade Baiyi magician of the Dayuan branch of the Lihuo Dao Academy with just one move."

"In addition, he has mastered dozens of high-level techniques and can even cultivate sixth-level plants!"

"You say, if we learn something from him, will it be of great benefit to us?"

Shang Ziyan and Su Minghui were surprised when they heard this. If what Ji Zixuan said was true, then this Yuanrang Marquis Zhao Xing was truly a peerless genius.

"Senior Sister, does Marquis Yuan Rang have any taboos?" Shang Ziyan asked cautiously.

"He hates lazy, ignorant, indecisive fools." Ji Zixuan recalled, "Remember, don't ask stupid questions."

"Okay, the ship will land soon, and you all should prepare to summon your pets." Ji Zixuan waved her hand.

"Yes, thank you, senior sister." Shang Ziyan and Su Minghui retreated obediently.
