The waning moon is like a hook, and the cold wind is howling.

In a criss-crossing alley, a man was running frantically, and behind him, two figures were in hot pursuit, and the cold killing machine was firmly locked on him, exuding the smell of death and blood.

The man's face was very pale due to excessive blood loss, and when he climbed over a low wall, he tripped over something, and he suddenly fell into the garbage heap, and the loud noise alarmed several stray cats, and let out a terrible howl.

The man scrambled to his feet, his body stiffened suddenly, and he suddenly looked up at the front.

The alley, hidden in the darkness, is like a bottomless abyss, devouring all creatures that come close.

Intuition tells men that there is danger ahead!

The sound of crisp footsteps sounded suddenly, and every step seemed to step on the man's heart, making him sweat profusely.

A young man in his twenties appeared at the end of the alley, he was well-dressed and looked indifferent: "Zhang Duanyan, you can't escape!" ”

"Who are you? Why are you chasing me? ”

The man, that is, Zhang Duanyan, was like a lone wolf forced into a desperate situation at this time, roaring in despair.

Zhao Zhixuan glanced at him with pity in his eyes: "Two months ago, there was a major casualty case in Y City, the suspect Zhang Duanyan, a monk in the early stage of Gongji, and the dragoon guard were ordered to hunt!" ”

Zhang Duanyan said emotionally: "I didn't kill anyone, I was framed!" ”

"Perhaps!"

Zhao Zhixuan did not refute: "But my mission is to hunt, not investigate, so you can die!" ”

He raised his right hand, this simple action, but Zhang Duanyan felt the threat of death, his body was like a tense spring, and suddenly leaped to the left.

Zhao Zhixuan seemed to have expected it, his right hand suddenly opened, and a mysterious sigil suddenly appeared in the air, blocking Zhang Duanyan's body.

The white light shone, and several wind blades slashed towards him.

"Rune Sealer!"

Zhang Duanyan looked startled, suddenly changed his body, and an iron plate bridge dodged the wind blade, and his body also fell to the ground.

"Hey!"

Zhao Zhixuan's palm suddenly clenched, the green rune on the ground flickered, and countless vines broke through the ground, wrapped around Zhang Duanyan's body like a snake, and quickly tightened.

Zhang Duanyan's feet were entangled, and he let out a loud shout, and the momentum of the strong man in the Gongji period suddenly exploded, and the powerful energy instantly shattered the vines.

Zhang Duanyan knew that he was now desperate, and if he wanted to survive, he had to defeat the young man in front of him.

"Flame Wolf Fist!"

Zhang Duanyan roared angrily, rushed straight forward, and punched out, and the whole person seemed to have turned into a fire wolf, with a fierce momentum.

Zhao Zhixuan's wrist flipped and pushed forward: "Yu!" ”

Airplanes!

Purple light flashed and quickly formed a circular circle in front of him, scorching brightly.

Zhang Duanyan threw a punch with all his might, smashing into the magic circle, causing a huge explosion.

The powerful energy suddenly spread, and in the howling wind, the purple magic circle did not move at all.

Zhao Zhixuan changed the technique, his eyes were cold: "Imperial Turn, Backstab!" ”

The purple circle spun abruptly, turning its color into white, and then countless ice picks shot out from it, instantly piercing Zhang Duanyan's body, and inserting it into the wall with all his remaining strength.

In the blood splash, Zhang Duanyan slowly fell to the ground, his mouth opened wide, and his eyes were mixed with resentment and unwillingness: "I...... Wronged ......"

Zhao Zhixuan looked down at him, expressionless from beginning to end.

At this moment, two figures came to the alley and said respectfully: "Young master! ”

Zhao Zhixuan said 'um', turned around and said, "Clean up here and go back to the headquarters tomorrow!" ”

The night, long enough to bury any sin.

……

Dragoon Guard Headquarters, Training Room.

As soon as the fifteen-day period arrived, the aura in the stone room slowly weakened, and finally dissipated.

Ye Xuan slowly opened his eyes.

He stood up, moved his hands and feet, and said to himself: "Through these days of hard work, I have finally stabilized my injury, but if I want to recover completely, I must rely on pills, but the medicinal materials are precious, relying on my current points, it is obviously not enough!" ”

"Thankfully, there is no way to do it!"

He took out a map from his bosom, on which the mountains and forests were outlined with lines, and a dozen places were marked, with the names of various heavenly and earthly treasures written on them.

"Master Luo didn't know where to get the news, he knew in advance that this dragoon guard selection would be held in the secret realm, he gave me this map, let me search for the cloud iron stone and give it to him, in exchange, he helped me repair the cloud piercing sword for free!"

"This kind of ore is extremely rare, it has become extinct outside, it can be said that it is hard to find, this trade is definitely not a loss for him, and for me, it is even more profitable!"

"Because there are many heavenly and earthly treasures marked on the map, there are seven or eight kinds of herbs similar to the grade of fairy spirit grass, and I am in urgent need of medicinal alchemy now, this map is tantamount to sending charcoal in the snow to me!"

Ye Xuan grinned, put away the map, and looked excited.

Now this selection is not only related to whether he joins the Dragoon Guard, but also a great opportunity to collect medicinal materials, and he must firmly seize it!

Opening the stone door and walking up the steps, the warm sunlight shining on his body made Ye Xuan have the illusion of being in a different world.

"You're finally out, and I'm going to slam the door when it's too late!"

Yin Xue was waiting for him outside the door, and it seemed that he had been waiting for a while!

"How did you know I was here?" Ye Xuan asked.

"Guess! I went to see you in the hospital a few days ago, and found that you were not there, and after asking the nurse, I found out that you have not been back. ”

After Yin Xue answered, she asked, "How is the recovery?" ”

"Almost!"

"That's good! I'll take you to sign up first, the assessment plan has come down, let's talk while walking! ”

The two went to the office area on the top floor together, and after Yin Xue's narration, Ye Xuan learned that the assessment was divided into two parts, the first was the written test, and the second was the elimination round.

Needless to say, the written test is equivalent to an open-book exam, as long as you are not brain-dead, you can pass, and the knockout round is the key.

Different from previous years, this year's format broke the convention, and for the first time, the secret realm was used as a trial ground to test the monks' practical skills.

"The so-called secret realm is actually an independent space created by the ancient monks with great mana, similar to the existence of the Immortal Cave Mansion, which is rich in aura, wide area, full of exotic flowers and plants, monsters and beasts, preserving the most primitive ecological environment in ancient times!"

"It is a great treasure trove for monks, especially in this time when the aura is depleted, and many of the precious resources in it are unique! Because of this, in order to protect the secret realm from destruction, the headquarters ordered it to be closed all year round and forbade anyone to enter! ”

"I remember the last time it was opened was two years ago, led by a Yuan Infant Monk, accompanied by several Jindan monks, who entered the secret realm to explore and drew a brief map. At that time, everyone thought that the secret realm would be opened, and they were very happy, but unfortunately it didn't work out in the end! ”

"I didn't expect that this dragoon guard selection would be in the secret realm, which is really surprising!"

The two soon arrived at the top square, which had been rearranged to look very festive, with several red flags erected in the center and banners on both sides that read: Dragoon Guard Recruitment Office.

Most of them have already arrived first, because the recruitment criteria are under twenty years old, so there are all young people in the field, and there is no shortage of beautiful women and handsome guys.

"Finally not late, you can go over, the selection will take about ten days, and then we will be colleagues!"

Yin Xue was not worried that he would lose the election, he could kill the Jindan monk with the cultivation of the Gongji period, with such a record, how could a small selection match stump him?

Yin Xue still had something to do, so she left quickly, and Ye Xuan walked towards the recruitment office.

Under the guidance of the relevant personnel, he completed a series of registration procedures, and finally received a circular number wooden plaque.
