Amidst the crowd, there was a wave of cheers and congratulations. Once the noise subsided, the leader continued, "Among the top four of the tournament, the other three are Li Xinghe, Wang Qianyue, and Jiang Xue! I announce that these four young talents will all receive the title of Human Dragon! They are truly exceptional individuals!"
Another round of cheers erupted from the crowd. Although the title of Human Dragon was the lowest among the three prestigious titles in Dragon City, it was still held by only about a hundred people throughout the entire city, making it a significant honor.
"Furthermore..." the leader continued, "all four of them will have the privilege to choose their future affiliations! They can select from any of the four major divisions or even the Elder Council in Dragon City!"
"You two, which division do you want to join?" Wang Long suddenly asked Li Xinghe and Jiang Xue.
"Dragon Tooth, I suppose. After all, most of my Li Family's members are there..." Li Xinghe replied softly with a frown.
"Dragon Hidden," Jiang Xue said without hesitation.
Wang Long glanced at her and chuckled, "I plan to join Dragon Hidden as well; it should be the best place for cultivation!"
Jiang Xue looked back at him but did not respond.
Afterward, the leader personally awarded the four strong contenders, granting them the title of Human Dragon. This truly honored them and marked a noisy conclusion to the Dragon Martial Arts Tournament.
Finally returning to the Dragon Martial Training ground for one last time, it was now time for the five mentors and disciples to bid farewell.
"Alright, it's time for us to say goodbye... Regardless, watching you all grow step by step over these past six months has been incredibly rewarding. You are all my best disciples... Don't look at me, Liu Chengyan; you too. I've seen your efforts. Moreover, your breakthrough to Fourth Dragon Vein in that last month was no less impressive than Li Xinghe's! You've just been lazy and lacked motivation until now..."
Zhang Tailai smiled gently and patted Liu Chengyan's head as if looking at his own child.
"...Master, thank you," Liu Chengyan said with some emotion, his voice trembling.
"You few don't need to say anything. In the future, you will all have bright prospects, and surpassing me is just a matter of time. However... it seems that each of you has some inner turmoil. While on one hand, this can motivate you to move forward, if it becomes too burdensome, it may affect your cultivation. In the future, if you have any matters, feel free to come find me; the doors here will always be open for you..."
"Yes!"
For the last time, the four of them shouted in unison.
After bidding farewell to Zhang Tailai, Wang Long decided to first visit the Dragon Burial Shrine to see the mysterious elder Wang Yuanxian. At this moment, there was no need for stealth; following the path for just a moment, they soon saw the dilapidated figure of the shrine.
"You're here?"
It was the same question as before. Wang Long chuckled lightly and approached, saying, "Yes, my Dragon Martial Training has concluded. I have finally lived up to your expectations and won first place in the tournament."
Wang Yuanxian appeared and shook his head, saying, "I had no great expectations for you; you're just being overly sentimental..."
Wang Long did not argue but smiled as he walked inside. "I came to bid you farewell. With my Dragon Martial Arts finished, I plan to return... In the future, I will join Dragon Hidden to continue my cultivation and probably won't have many opportunities to see you."
"Dragon Hidden? That's fine... There you will indeed be able to encounter a lot of things. Moreover, that Old Zhang from Dragon Hidden is quite capable; following him should not lead to any losses..."
"And... try not to use the Nine Heavens Dragon Suppression Scroll in public anymore. Although I passed it on to you openly, your identity is not yet confirmed, and it could still lead to unnecessary trouble. Being cautious is never a bad thing."
Wang Long felt a stir in his heart and quickly nodded while asking, "Did you also watch the Dragon Martial Arts Tournament, elder?"
Wang Yuanxian revealed a mysterious smile: "These things are not important. Nearly half a year has passed since then, and you've broken through the Five Dragon Veins. While this speed is indeed astonishing, it is still far from enough considering the burdens on your shoulders. Remember that in Dragon Hidden, experts are everywhere; do not provoke anyone! Also, consult everyone more often; learn from their strengths and integrate various skills into your own—that is the true Divine Ability of our Wang family!"
"Yes, I understand," Wang Long replied.
Wang Yuanxian smiled, "Alright, you have seen me now, go ahead!"
"Thank you for your guidance during these days, I will remember it," Wang Long bowed to Wang Yuanxian and expressed his gratitude before turning to leave the Dragon Burial Shrine.
"Sigh, the Dragon City is in turmoil. Although you are still young, you have to bear all these responsibilities. It must be hard on you..." Wang Yuanxian softly sighed behind Wang Long.
Returning to his original residence and resting for a while, Wang Long decided to visit his father, the Contemporary Dragon Head, for a conversation. However, given the esteemed position of the Dragon Head, he was unsure if he would be able to see him even as his son.
After informing the guards outside, Wang Long quietly waited at the door.
After a while, the guard came out to greet Wang Long and said that the Dragon Head was requesting him.
The father and son finally met again.
"I was just discussing matters with a few elders. How long have you been here?" the Dragon Head said with a light smile.
"It's nothing; I was just waiting for a bit."
"Mm." The Dragon Head nodded but fell into silence, not speaking for a while. The father and son sat quietly at the table, sharing a tacit understanding without uttering a word.
"You performed very well today; you truly live up to being a member of the Wang family and my son," the Dragon Head suddenly glanced at Wang Long and said with a light smile.
Wang Long also smiled, "To receive a compliment from the leader is truly worth all the hardships of training."
"Alas... it has indeed been tough for you..." The leader sighed deeply and after a moment added, "By the way, have you decided which department you want to join?"
"Dragon Hidden," Wang Long replied decisively.
"Oh? Is it because the training there is the most rigorous?"
"Yes, only Dragon Hidden can enhance my abilities in the shortest time possible, allowing me to relieve the leader's burdens sooner."
"Mm, very good..."
Another silence followed.
"Ah, by the way... during the final battle, you used the Nine Heavens Dragon Suppression Scroll to evade Wang Qianyue's attack, right?!" The leader suddenly asked.
Wang Long's heart stirred; he hesitated about whether to reveal information about Wang Yuanxian. On one hand, he believed that the leader had a significant connection with Wang Yuanxian, especially since it was the leader who dispatched him on the last mission to Lingzhi Island. On the other hand, it was clear that Wang Yuanxian had considerable freedom in his actions, as he had entrusted such a treasure as the Nine Heavens Dragon Suppression Scroll to Wang Long without consulting the leader.
"This..." Wang Long found himself in a dilemma, unsure whether to admit it.
The leader smiled, "You don't need to feel troubled. I was just asking casually. How he acts and what choices he makes are his own business; I will never interfere..."
"Thank you, Leader." Wang Long couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
"It seems you have quite a bit of respect for him, to the point that you hesitated to answer my question."
Wang Long replied, "Yes, this elder has helped me a lot, especially in guiding me in my cultivation. He is... both a teacher and a friend!"
"Both a teacher and a friend, huh... Hehe, very good," the Dragon Head nodded with a smile.
"Since you have chosen to enter Dragon Hidden, it means you are fully prepared. I have a top-secret mission to assign to you," the Dragon Head suddenly said solemnly.
"What mission?"
"This mission is only between you and me. You must not tell anyone else, not even your closest friends or family!"
Wang Long's expression turned serious. "I understand. Please give your orders, Dragon Head!"
