Hearing this voice, Huo Feng suddenly opened his eyes. At that moment, he noticed that the Ling Zhi brothers had already gotten out of bed and were about to call for him. The thin boy who was the first to wake up also got off the bed and said to Huo Feng and the others, "You just arrived, right? Why are you still dawdling? Hurry up and go outside; those hotshots are all weirdos who enjoy messing with us."
With that, he stepped forward and walked outside. Huo Feng quickly followed the Ling Zhi brothers out. When they reached the outside, they were surprised to find that a large crowd had already gathered in the square. Huo Feng sensed that there were at least a thousand people, so they hurried to the end of the line to stand.
After a moment, no new members joined the line. At this time, the voice of the person who had spoken earlier rang out again: "Since you all have arrived, let me explain why I called you out today. You are currently only considered trainee Cavalry and not yet true Cavalry members, so I will first outline the requirements to become Cavalry."
"To become Cavalry, you must first be above Earth Vein Realm, which you have already achieved; secondly, you should have noticed the mission board in the hall. The second requirement is that you must complete ten B-Rank or higher missions from that board within a month, and you must not die or get injured during those missions. If you do this, you can participate in the mount taming journey. Once you return with your mount, you will truly become Cavalry."
Upon hearing this, everyone felt a surge of excitement and eagerness; some even forgot that everyone here was somewhat strange and began whispering among themselves.
"I called you out today for another reason: until you receive your identity badges, you are not allowed to wander around Underground Soldier City; otherwise, there will be no mercy." It seemed he could not stand seeing everyone so happy and passionate; his voice suddenly became stern, carrying an undeniable authority that left a deep impression on these newcomers.
Instantly, everyone looked at each other as if cold water had been splashed on them. They were initially excited to check out the mission board but now had to retreat back into their rooms to cultivate.
"You will be notified when it’s time to collect your identity badges. Is that clear?" he said loudly again.
Although everyone disliked him, an invisible sense of fear compelled them to shout in unison, "Understood."
"Dismissed."
Seeing everyone cooperate so eagerly seemed to please him. After shouting "dismissed," he turned and left.
Once he was gone, everyone began chattering as they headed back to their rooms in groups of three or four. Huo Feng also followed the Ling Zhi brothers back to their room.
At this moment, a bald-headed boy quickly approached them and said, "Hey! How are you? My name is Miyan. What are your names? Since we’re living together, let’s get to know each other."
Huo Feng smiled lightly and replied, "Hello, I'm Ruofeng."
"I am Ling Zhi."
"My name is Ling, and Ling Zhi is my brother. We are twin brothers."
Among the three, only Ling was a bit more active and spoke more.
"I thought coming here would allow me to train my substitute well and have some fun, but damn, there are so many rules. It feels like being in prison here in Underground Soldier City. It's really frustrating," Miyan said.
Ling laughed and replied, "I'm just like you; I can't stand this kind of restriction either. I guess only my brother and Ruo Feng Brother can tolerate it. They seem like those who would train recklessly."
The four had already arrived at the door of their room, and they pushed the door open to enter. Huo Feng and Ling Zhi jumped onto the bed to start their training, while Miyan looked at them and helplessly said, "Oh heavens! What is going on? I've been bored here for two days. Finally, a few companions arrive, but I still have to suffer through training like a wooden block. What kind of luck is this?"
"Hahaha... stop complaining and train. After this, we should be able to take on missions," Ling said, laughing at Miyan's funny expression.
"Sigh!"
Miyan sighed deeply and then began training alongside Ling.
...
Time flew by quickly, and soon it was the third day. Everyone spent their time training. However, for cultivators, this short period felt brief; for Huo Feng, who had a unique way of training, it felt like years. Huo Feng's Seven Star Inheritance could only achieve double the normal speed of improvement under the starry sky. He was accustomed to the feeling of abundant Origin Force and rapid absorption, so this brief training felt like an eternity to him—it was torture.
On the morning of the third day, as dawn broke, Huo Feng eagerly opened his eyes. He planned to take advantage of this mission period to stay outside most of the time for better training while keeping his secrets hidden.
However, Huo Feng noticed that Ling Zhi and Miyan were still training. So he cautiously stepped outside. Huo Feng arrived at an empty square but didn't know what to do with himself, so he began to pace back and forth in boredom.
At that moment, a figure approached from a distance—a person with blue hair flowing elegantly over their shoulders, dressed in luxurious clothing, walking gracefully towards Huo Feng. Huo Feng recognized her immediately; it was Ruan Yiqing, who had brought them here yesterday.
Ruan Yiqing also saw Huo Feng and elegantly flashed in front of him, saying, "Brother, hello! Why are you the only one out here?"
Huo Feng heard Ruan Yiqing's question and thought to himself that this person must have completely forgotten that he was the one who brought him in. However, Huo Feng didn't mind and smiled, saying, "Everyone else is working hard on their cultivation, but I'm just too lazy to endure such long hours of practice."
"Hahaha... I'm the same! My name is Ruan Yiqing. What's your name, brother? How about this: since we still have some time before we receive our identity tokens, why don't we go out and take a look?" Ruan Yiqing said with great interest.
Huo Feng knew that with Ruan Yiqing around, going out would be no problem. Still, he replied, "My name is Ruo Feng, but that manager said we can't leave here casually."
"Don't worry, with me here, it's fine. Didn't you see that I came in from outside without anyone stopping me? Let's go," Ruan Yiqing said mysteriously. After signaling to Huo Feng, he led the way toward the hall. Huo Feng quickly followed.
Soon, the two arrived at the hall, which looked completely different from what Huo Feng had seen before. The hall was now crowded with people, all gathered around the mission board, while the newcomer registration area was empty. Even the Stunning Woman, Yin Niang, was nowhere to be seen.
"Young Master Yiqing, the Three Generals are looking for you on the second floor."
At that moment, a woman's voice came from the staircase leading to the second floor. Upon hearing this, Ruan Yiqing turned to Huo Feng and said, "Ruo Feng Brother, I'll go up first. You wait here for me; I'll be down shortly."
With that, Ruan Yiqing headed up to the second floor. Feeling a bit idle, Huo Feng approached the mission board and started browsing through the tasks.
Just as Huo Feng was looking at one task after another, someone suddenly pushed him aside and said, "Move aside! Who let this fellow in? Don't block my way."
