    At noon on the second day, Wang Lu and others arrived at Dragon City. They were thousands of miles away and arrived in a blink of an eye.

    When setting off from Gold Flash Town, the Lord of Dragon City, Bedivere, transformed into a dragon over a hundred meters long, carried everyone on his back, soared into the sky, and led them forward at the speed of a dragon.

    Having the famous Lord of Dragon City from the Xiyi Continent as a mount, this treatment is simply unbelievable.  On the back of the dragon, the hearts of these newly recruited Dragon City guards were beating wildly, and they did not dare to breathe. They just felt like they were in a dream.

    But in fact, Bedivere himself didn't care about this at all, he just thought it was faster.

    The Dragon City Guard Selection Ceremony in Goldshire was not what he wanted. It made him feel sick from beginning to end, so it would be better to end it as soon as possible.  Naturally, the three Holy Light Priests would not consider protecting Bedivere's face. It was his fault that he willingly fell to being a mount for a group of new recruits.  These pastors are eager to go back early to receive awards.

    When the group of people descended slowly with the dragon Bedivere, they all felt a thrilling pressure rising in their hearts, which was the faint coercion of the entire city.  Dragon City is named after the dragon and has been closely associated with the dragon clan for thousands of years. Even today, the entire land is filled with the aura of the dragon clan.  Dragon City is the most majestic city in Bretonia. It was the capital of the former Knight King era, but its strength and foundation are not as good as this ancient city.

    When looking at the scene from a high altitude, most of the newlyweds are just happy and full of excitement.  But for those who are interested, this is a rare opportunity to see the overall situation.

    "The strong are like forests, this Dragon City" Wang Lu squinted his eyes slightly. Wherever he could sense, there were more than fifty auras of high-level professionals alone, and there were countless mid-level professionals.  This does not include the number of strong men who are accustomed to hiding their auras. Such power can only be compared to the high-ranking sects in the Nine Provinces Continent.

    Aya said: "Yes, and it is obviously a mixture of multiple forces. Dragon City Guards, Holy Light Sect, and other adventurers gathered here. The number is very large. After more than a hundred years, this city is stronger than ever before.  It's even bigger, even comparable to my Knights of the Round Table."

    When Aya¡¯s army was at its peak, there were no more than a hundred high-level professionals under her command.  Of course, this does not mean that there are only so few high-level professionals in the vast land of Bretonnia, but most powerful people are used to freedom and will not directly obey the orders of the King of Knights.  The so-called Knight King, to put it simply, is just the strongest force in the land of Bretonia, and does not dominate the world.

    But now the scale of Dragon City is comparable to that of the Knights of the Round Table of the King of Knights. Aya was filled with emotion when she saw it.

    "It's a pity that although it is large, it is nothing more than scattered sand." Aya said lightly, "The power of this city has not been integrated at all."

    "That's why we have the opportunity to act. Nine hundred and ninety-nine roses, and Aya, your road to national restoration begins here."

    The new batch of Dragon City guards soon started their new life in Dragon City.

    After arriving, more than 30 people immediately gathered in the military camp square. Under the attention of thousands of Dragon City guards, they swore allegiance to Dragon City Lord Bedivere and Dragon City Archbishop Luo Wan, and accepted blessings.

    The content of the oath is not strict. The main thing is that Dragon City's skills must not be spread to outsiders, Dragon City's interests must not be harmed, etc. The binding force of the oath is not strong.

    Aya was still very surprised by this, because in her era, the Dragon City Guards, as the core legion of the kingdom, were famous for their strict management.  Why is it that today, the Dragon City guards have become Bedivere's private soldiers, but they have relaxed their management?  According to this level of binding force, it is actually difficult to restrict the Dragon City Kung Fu from being spread to outsiders, and the ability to mobilize Dragon City guards is also limited.

    It¡¯s no wonder that Dragon City is in disarray.

    However, it is a good thing to relax the oath at this time, so as to avoid breaking the oath and causing trouble when a rebellion is raised later.

    The oath-taking ceremony was conducted uniformly, with no exception for everyone, including Wang Lu.  Even though he joined as a face-to-face person in Jinjin Town, he actually arrived in Dragon City, so naturally he wouldn't take it seriously.  Treat him only as an ordinary Dragon City guard and allow him to participate in the oath-taking ceremony.  After the oath-taking ceremony, the newlyweds, led by several Dragon City Guard officers, went to the military camp to settle down.

    Dragon City Guards accept strict military management, but their personal living conditions are quite favorable. The military barracks where more than 2,000 Dragon City Guards live occupies a quarter of Dragon City's land. Each Dragon City Guard has an independent  Depending on the level and strength of the living space, from a simple apartment to a courtyard villa, the basic necessities of life are well guaranteed.  Among them, the blood descendants of the Breton dragon clan were given preferential treatment. They lived alone in a villa area. As newcomers, they enjoyed the treatment of senior guards.

    After entering the villa area, everyone settled down individually, and then got familiar with the environment under the leadership of the veterans.  And in the process, a surprising discovery was made.

    There are actually many people who were selected from previous years who also live in the villa area.Because most of the Dragon Clan blood descendants selected for the ceremony were from Goldsmith Town, they quickly recognized each other and exchanged pleasantries.

    Wang Lu and Aya were both surprised: the Holy Light Religion purified the bloodline of the Braddon Dragon Clan. This was what they heard from the holy-robed priest in the King's Treasure House.  What I saw later in Gold Flash Town seemed to confirm this: the Holy Light Religion gathered dragon blood descendants in the name of Dragon City, and then sent them to Dragon City to be purified

    Now it seems that the first few steps have been taken, but after the Dragonborn entered Dragon City, they seemed to be still alive and kicking. They were not missing arms or legs, and they were not sacrificed to blood on a large scale.

    While the fellow villagers in Shining Gold Town were chatting, Wang Lu and Aya listened quietly and learned that things were indeed very different from what they expected.

    The dragon descendants living in this villa area first joined the Dragon City Guards more than 20 years ago. During this period, they practiced martial arts, participated in battles, and even married wives and had children. To this day, no one has ever heard of any bloodline.  Purify

    As for the Dragonborn who joined earlier?  Legend has it that some have entered the upper echelons of Dragon City, and some have chosen to retire and travel around the mainland, but in short, I have never heard of any unfavorable actions taken by the Holy Light Religion against these people.  On the contrary, these people generally have a positive view of Holy Light Religion.

    Are these people too insecure about information now?  Or have they colluded with the Holy Light Religion and concealed information?  Or is the administrator of the King's Treasure House just talking nonsense?  It is unknown for now.

    "In short, it is valuable to enter Dragon City in person." Aya said thoughtfully, "We have time anyway, so just calm down and watch quietly. The truth will always surface."

    Wang Lu smiled: "It doesn't matter, I'm not in a hurry anyway."

    In the next three months, Wang Lu and others lived in an orderly manner in Longcheng.

    As newly enlisted Dragon City guards, according to the plan, they must undergo strict training in Dragon City in the first few years. Regardless of whether the newcomers have a certain foundation before that, they have to start all over again after joining Dragon City.  Because in Longcheng's view, the so-called foundation of the new people is basically broken everywhere, so it's better to cut it off and practice again.

    Of course, if you really have amazing skills, for example, you are already a high-level professional when you join, then it will naturally be different. However, Wang Lu and others have hidden their own strength, and at most they behave like ordinary junior professionals, not pure newcomers.  , but it doesn¡¯t deserve special attention.  The same thing is starting from scratch.

    The basic training level of Dragon City Guards is very high, and it is second to none in the entire Xiyi Continent.  In addition to routine physical training and other basics, Longcheng quickly distributed different Kung Fu books based on each person's situation.  Wang Lu and others naturally do not need these classics to practice, but they can refer to the theoretical methods in them.

    Before achieving the Golden Elixir, Wang Lu originally planned to enrich his knowledge and absorb a wide range of knowledge essences.  The power system of Xiyi is very different from that of Kyushu, and there is something magical about it that should not be underestimated.

    In the past three months, Wang Lu just wandered around the military camp area and exchanged exercises with people everywhere. There was no confidentiality requirement for these exercise books issued by Longcheng, and mutual borrowing was not prohibited.  Therefore, Wang Lu quickly collected a large number of Kung Fu books and studied them carefully.  Although three months was not enough to make any essential changes in his strength, it undoubtedly greatly enriched his knowledge and laid a good foundation for the unification of Jindan in the future.

    In addition, three months later, this group of newcomers successfully stimulated the power of their bloodline, became professionals, and quickly strengthened their strength.  In three months, the newcomers quickly grew from a strong blacksmith, a dexterous tailor, and a clever inn proprietress to warriors who could defeat ten or even more powerful warriors. The best among them even successfully manifested the characteristics of the dragon clan and possessed the power of a dragon.  Scale body protection and other special powers, one can be worth a hundred.

    Wang Lu was filled with emotions about this.  It's also cultivation, and it's also starting from ordinary people. How come the speed of this Xiyi continent is so much faster than that of Kyushu?  It took him at least two years from the time he entered Lingjian Mountain to train his body, and it took him at least two years to achieve the combat power of one against a hundred. During this period, he also spent a lot of resources on medicinal baths and the I Ching to cleanse the marrow.  Of course, the Lingjian Sect's cultivation speed is the slowest among the Five Arts, but even the fastest one in Junhuang Mountain will not be able to transform a person in three months.

    "It's normal. The concepts of time in Xiyi and Kyushu are different." In this regard, Aya, who is well-versed in Eastern and Western knowledge, explained, "The strengthening speed of Xiyi professionals is obviously faster than that of Kyushu monks, but our lifespan is also far shorter.  For you, your Jindan master can have a lifespan of seven to eight hundred years, but the corresponding high-level professionals here generally only have a lifespan of 150 to 200 years according to the practice of the Kyushu people.  With such speed, I¡¯m afraid my life span will be over before I can advance to a higher level.¡±

    Wang Lu was quite curious: "But I think Bedivere has a long life. He was your loyal lackey more than a hundred years ago, and he is still alive and kicking without looking old."

    "Dragon bloodline is inherently long-lived, which is what most people hate about us. When it comes to power and combat ability, there are many bloodlines on the mainland that are not inferior to dragon bloodline, but when it comes to extending lifespan,There are few people who can compare with the Dragon Clan.  But even Bedivere, who can be regarded as a powerful person in the realm of gods in your Kyushu, should have a life span of more than two thousand years, but in fact he only lived for one thousand years.  Unless you transform your life form and become an undead creature such as a lich, or like me now But this is not the right path.  "

    Wang Lu nodded lightly: "The faster you become stronger, the faster you die? This is interesting."

    Aya said casually: "Perhaps it has something to do with our ecological environment. Since the decline of the Golden Dynasty, the Xiyi Continent has been constantly fighting, and the wars are much more frequent than your Jiuzhou Continent. So in this fast-paced pressure  Next, we have to get stronger faster, because there is not enough time for us to grow slowly.¡±

    "However, you lament that the newcomers are making fast progress, which is actually wrong." Aya said, frowning slightly, "The progress of the newcomers is actually not fast at all. The bloodline of the Bledon Dragon Clan made rapid progress in the early stage, far beyond what it is now.  , the exercises that everyone has practiced in the past few months are actually veryinferior exercises. I thought it was for the sake of gradual progress, so I started with simple ones, but now it seems that Bedivere deliberately used inferior exercises.  perfunctory us."

    After a pause, Aya continued: "Furthermore, I have contacted several veterans. Although their strength cannot be said to be weak, they are not up to the level they should be. The longest among them has been joining for more than 20 years, and they are just now  Those who have just broken through to mid-level professions. In my era, it is not uncommon for dragonborns with outstanding talents like them to advance to high levels."

    Wang Lu said: "Do you suspect that Dragon City is deliberately suppressing the strength of Dragonborn?"

    "Yes, Bedivere is an excellent commander, and he is not so ignorant of training his men. In this situation, we can only think that he did it intentionally."

    Aya said: "I still can't figure out his reasons at the moment, but I can try to change the situation a little and see how he reacts."

    Wang Lu was stunned for a while: "Are you going to run naked?"
