I Have a Golden Crow-Chapter 720 - 502 First Disciple of the Eight Provinces?_2

"Phew~" Du Yu let out a sigh and turned to look out the window.

No matter how others did, he certainly nailed the exam.

The scratches on his face increased from one to five, reaching the limit.

He rescued a total of 20 soldiers, saving them from the edge of the city all the way to the center.

Never saw the Heavenly-level Demon Crystal team, but he bagged all the General and Emperor level Demon Crystals!

Twice back and forth with the Cold Ashen Arrow, he was given heaps of Demon Crystals.

During this, he also rescued students from Icefield Province, Great Xia Capital City, and Heji Province.

Killing involved the Desolate Silver Lynx, with operations led by Yan Ruyu.

The entire recording had no stable narration, it was all damn climax!

In the end, he even contracted with the Ashen Arrow.

Two big words: Perfect!

If you don't give me the title of "First Disciple of Eight Provinces," I will definitely appeal...

First place is secured, and aren't the rewards coming too~

Demon Soldiers, Library Ring, and precious and rare cultivation materials!

Speaking of which,

does this king still need to customize a Demon Soldier this time?

I've already got the Ashen Arrow, isn't this the ceiling of "customization"?

Should I get a rare Demon Beast?

Even if I don't contract it, putting it in the Mountain Realm as a subordinate, to strengthen the Beast Race army and increase the types of the tribe, is also good.

Hmm...

"Du Yu." Beside him came a girl's soft whisper.

"Huh?" Du Yu snapped back to reality.

He only realized he was fantasizing about the rewards before even leaving the exam venue.

Lin Shiwei smiled with her eyes: "Let's go, time to exit."

Lin Shihao watched his Sister Wei's behavior, feeling the situation was exceptionally unusual.

It's known that Grand General Lin is quite obsessed with grades.

But this time, she wasn't the least bit unwilling.

Could it be she felt she did well, having previously performed excellently on a mission with Du Yu in the night?

What Lin Shihao, along with the vast majority didn't know was...

Lin Shiwei's final exam was already over a long time ago.

As long as Du Yu contracted with the Ashen Arrow, grades were completely unimportant to Lin Shiwei.

Of course, solely based on Lin Shiwei's battlefield performance, her grades would definitely be among the top.

The students followed the invigilating teachers and exited together.

Since the city had just been cleared by soldiers and the Ashen Arrow, the always bustling Xuena City was unusually tranquil.

However, there were very few Cold Beasts hidden in the buildings, having escaped the inferno.

As for why it's "very few," it's because when the flames filled the streets, the Cold Beasts in the buildings would be drawn out by the blaze.

To what extent had the Cold Beasts gone mad?

They didn't even have the instinct to "seek benefits and avoid harm"!

The Ashen Arrow merely set fires, the Cold Beast army would naturally turn into moths to a flame.

In such a scenario, the route for teachers and students to leave was exceptionally smooth.

Unlike when entering, this time our exit was via the South Gate.

And when everyone was one street away from the city gate, 2 more invigilating teachers joined with a team of people.

This team was the Great Xia Capital team, among which was a burly man from the grassland.

Du Yu clearly sensed a subtle atmosphere.

He also sensed that Zhao Lin from his team didn't quite get along with the other students from Great Xia Capital.

However, there was someone unaffected, the petite girl—Ji Yaoyao.

The dissatisfaction was all over her face: "We still have so many Demon Crystals we haven't submitted yet."

Du Yu couldn't help but chuckle inwardly.

Before the exam, his imagined enemies and biggest competitors were this group of people from Great Xia Capital.

Looking back now, he was still too naive.

Competition naturally existed.

But where was there any conflict?

Within this vast battle zone, the two sides hadn't even met face to face!

Great Xia Bookstore surely didn't have the leisure to hold competitions, this so-called final exam was purely meant for education.

Who knows how everyone fared in this lesson?

Silly Du Yu, even now, hadn't figured out,

the bookstore's lesson hadn't even unfolded yet, and he disrupted the whole thing...

Uh... yet the educational value should still be present.

Like the remaining burly man from the grassland, by now he should understand with what reverence he should view the battle zone.

"Five stripes?" Ji Yaoyao seemed to notice something, her fair little finger pointing at Du Yu's cheek, "You! You, you, you..."

Du Yu waved his hand: "I put it on myself."

Ji Yaoyao's eyes widened: "Huh?"

Du Yu grinned: "Doesn't it look good?"

The crowd around: "..."

Behind them, Zhu Weizheng almost laughed in anger!

Could it really have been you who put it on?

Just to monitor those stripes on your face, I almost lost my life!

"Crack!" 𝘧𝑟𝑒𝑒𝘸𝘦𝘣𝑛𝑜𝘷𝑒𝓁.𝘤𝘰𝓂

Under the high southern wall, the heavy iron gate slowly opened.

For some reason, Du Yu felt like he was getting out of prison.

"Alive again~" Li Wenni took a deep breath, even though there was only a wall separating them, the air outside seemed fresher?

Many students felt fortunate and relaxed like Li Wenni.

This release indeed gave everyone a feeling of "rebirth."

"Everyone, get in the bus." The invigilating teacher shouted, pointing to the buses parked not far away.

Just then, a team of soldiers approached: "Mr. Du Yu?"

"Hmm?" Du Yu turned his head to look.

The students also curiously looked over.

The leading soldier saluted, then gestured to the jeep beside them: "Please."

Du Yu hesitated for a moment, but handed the Ice-colored Jade Marrow Bow to Lin Shiwei.

As he moved, a wisp of Demon Soul emerged from his fingertips, entwining the girl's fingers: "I guess the leaders of the battle zone want to discuss the Ashen Arrow matter with me."

Lin Shiwei nodded lightly: "Go ahead."

Under the curious eyes of the crowd, Du Yu followed the soldier into the jeep and drove to the distant military camp.

Outside Xuena City, the military camp area where the Demon Spirit Squad was stationed was like a small town.

Sure enough, led by the soldiers, Du Yu saw Jin Hao again in an empty office in the office building.

"Report!" The soldier shouted from the wide-open office door.

Inside, Jin Hao sat on the sofa, nodding towards the door.

As Du Yu walked in, the soldier closed the door.

"You performed well and showed courage." Jin Hao returned to his previous kind demeanor, without a trace of imposing presence.

Du Yu said in a deep voice: "All the way, there were soldiers protecting me."

"Sit down." Jin Hao pointed to the sofa beside him.

On the coffee table, there was also a steaming cup of tea.

Du Yu hesitated for a moment but chose to obey and sat properly on the sofa.

Jin Hao: "Have you thought about joining the Demon Spirit Squad and becoming a warrior?"

"Ah this..." Du Yu stuttered, "I am a member of the Great Xia Bookstore·Twenty-Ninth Bureau, I really like this job."

Jin Hao nodded, seemingly having expected this: "You've contracted a Holy Grade Demon Soldier, which is a huge opportunity.

You are an excellent Demon Tamer, and you should understand the importance of companionship.

The contract is just the first step.

After contracting, how to cultivate and maintain the relationship between both parties is crucial."

Du Yu: "Yes."

Jin Hao: "If you come to our Xuena Battle Zone, you can often accompany the Cold Ashen Arrow."

Du Yu: "..."

Jin Hao was not in a hurry. He took up his cup and sipped the tea.

Du Yu looked troubled: "Chief, I'd rather stay in the Twenty-Ninth Bureau."

Jin Hao nodded, not making Du Yu too uncomfortable: "Your work in the Twenty-Ninth Bureau is indeed important."

Du Yu sighed in relief and nodded repeatedly: "Mm-hmm."

Jin Hao: "Since this is the case, I'll assign you a liaison officer.

Whenever you want to come to the Xuena Battle Zone or accompany the Cold Ashen Arrow, you can communicate with the liaison officer.

He will arrange your travel and handle all affairs."

Du Yu was delighted and quickly said: "Thank you, Chief."

"Hehe." Jin Hao also laughed, "The fate of a Holy Grade Demon Soldier is not controlled by ordinary people.

If it considers you its master, no one in this world can stop it.

If you're willing to leave the Cold Ashen Arrow in the Xuena Battle Zone to continue cultivating millions of Demon Spirit Soldiers for Great Xia, our Xuena Battle Zone will also do whatever it can.

If you want training or to bring teammates here to hone yourselves, Xuena City will always welcome you."

"Great, thank you, Chief!"

Jin Hao: "There's one more thing."

Du Yu: "Yes, sir?"

Jin Hao: "If you indeed need to summon the Cold Ashen Arrow away, you must inform us in advance.

This concerns the lives of thousands of soldiers in the battle zone."

Du Yu decisively nodded: "Certainly!"
