Divine Seal: God Descends, Holy Priest Riding a Black Dragon

Chapter 3 Getting to know Long Haochen and Sheng Cai'er

When Wen Tai came off the field, the priests sitting in the rest area looked at him with solemn eyes.

They could all sense the immense threat posed by the "Roar of the Holy Flame Dragon," and naturally, they couldn't be happy about the emergence of such a powerful opponent.

Wen Tai returned to Liu Mengli's mother's side, while Cardinal Ruoshui had already returned to the podium. It was unclear what the two had discussed.

"Well done, Xiao Bao!" Liu Mengli's face was beaming with a radiant smile. She gently ruffled Wen Tai's black hair and said, "Mom has some things to do here. You go back to the temple and wait for Mom."

Wen Tai could roughly guess what Liu Mengli and Ruoshui were plotting. It was all because of his monstrous talent, which was due to his innate spiritual power of 150 points.

Around the time of the selection competition, Wen Tai will be able to break through to the fifth rank. At that time, his spiritual power will be transformed into liquid spiritual power, and his strength will undergo a tremendous change.

As Wen Tai walked down the street, he suddenly felt a tickle in his palm. He looked up and saw that the circular mark on his palm was shining brightly.

"Hey, Austin, you're awake!!" Wen Tai said happily.

The palm print flashed twice more, conveying a message of joy from Austin.

Austin is Ventai's companion dragon, whose real name is Austin Agale. He is a pure-blooded dragon from another higher plane.

Even in his juvenile stage, Austin was comparable to a level six magical beast, which shows how terrifying Austin's bloodline is. Even the Heaven-Defying Demonic Dragon of the Demon God Emperor lineage is not as powerful as him.

Austin, who had just woken up from his slumber, kept crying out that he was hungry, but the Holy City had a rule that one could not summon magical beasts in public places without a reason, not even a knight's mount!
Wen Tai could only comfort Austin, promising to feed it a magic core as soon as they returned to the temple.

As Wen Tai walked toward the priest's temple, a handsome man and a beautiful woman suddenly appeared in his field of vision. The man was handsome and wore light knight's armor; the girl had striking purple hair, her face was covered by a black veil, but her exposed pupils were grayish-white and had no color at all.

Wen Tai could sense that both of them had a strange feeling, as if they were being watched by something!
And this combination... isn't that just Long Haochen and Sheng Cai'er?!

As one of only two normal male protagonists in the works of the author, Long Haochen is so normal that it seems like he was ghostwritten. He is also the embodiment of the spirit of the Ten Knights!
The ten principles of the Knight's Temple are the core essence of the knight profession, and each principle contains an extremely powerful forbidden spell.

Unfortunately, with the arrival of the Dark Ages, the cultivation system of the Holy Demon Continent suffered a severe blow, and the core inheritance of the chivalrous spirit was lost.

"Do you need help?" Wen Tai asked with a warm smile.

A hint of coldness appeared on the girl's face. Why did everyone think she needed help? Did she really look that pitiful?

"unnecessary!!!"

The girl's tone was very cold, even tinged with anger.

Wen Tai was slightly taken aback. What was going on? Had Long Haochen and Sheng Cai'er not recognized each other yet?

Wen Tai looked at the bewildered Long Haochen, stepped forward, patted him on the shoulder, and said, "Forget it, brother, maybe this little sister can go back by herself."

Long Haochen nodded, casually put his equipment into his ring, and then extended his hand to Wen Tai, saying, "Hello, my name is Long Haochen."

"Hello, my name is Wen Tai."

Wen Tai extended his hand and shook hands with Long Haochen.

Neither of them noticed that the aloof girl paused for a moment when Long Haochen put away his weapon, and then suddenly turned her head to look at Long Haochen.

"Hey." The girl Cai'er suddenly called out softly, and the murderous aura that had been filling her instantly melted away like ice and snow: "What's your name?"

Wen Tai and Long Haochen, who had just taken a step, suddenly stopped. Long Haochen scratched his head and said somewhat embarrassedly, "Ah? Me? My name is Long Haochen!"

"My name is Cai'er," the girl said in a very soft voice.

If it weren't for the fact that Wen Tai could borrow the Dragon's Sense, he would have suspected that the girl's vocal cords had been left at home.

Wen Tai was quite perceptive and said to Long Haochen, "Haochen, why don't you take her home first? I live at the Priest's Temple. You can find me there if you need anything."

"Okay, see you in the finals!"

During their conversation, the two revealed their identities to each other, both being contestants in this year's Demon Hunter Team selection competition.

……

Back in the priest's room, Wen Tai chanted to Austin, "Austin, shrink your size first, then I'll summon you."

Austin agreed on the other end; it couldn't wait to devour the magic core.

A pure-blooded dragon goes through four stages: infancy, childhood, growth, adulthood, and peak. Each stage requires a period of slumber, during which it consumes a large amount of energy.

Austin is now in his early childhood, a time when he has a big appetite!
Wen Tai released pure black energy from his palm, and Austin, whose body shrunk to the size of a pet dog, appeared in the room.

As a child, Austin possessed a more majestic and powerful aura, his scales became thicker and more robust, and his dragon horns were rugged, giving him a crown-like appearance.

Wen Tai casually ripped open a space, and a few dozen magic cores fell out. These were all dropped by demons killed during the selection competition.

Besides the magic core, there were also the corpses of demons and magical beasts.

A true dragon's stomach can digest everything, and theoretically it could even live by eating stones, although the energy contained in stones is far too low.

Austin inhaled deeply, and all the colorful magic cores entered its mouth. No matter how mixed the energy was, it would become docile once it entered its body.

The seemingly hard magic core couldn't withstand the dragon's teeth for long. Soon, all the energy was digested by Austin, and then it began to devour the monster's corpse.

In no time, the demon's corpse was more than half eaten, and Austin's eating speed also slowed down.

Seeing that it was almost full, Wen Tai reached out and opened up a space to store the remaining demon corpses inside.

That's the good thing about spatial magic; you can easily open a small space to store things.

"Now that you've eaten, start your cultivation," Wen Tai said, stroking Austin's scales.

Since Austin is Wen Tai's companion dragon, their cultivation levels can influence each other. Austin can replenish Wen Tai by absorbing energy.

Austin let out a comfortable snoring sound, and strands of energy flowed into Wen Tai's body along the symbiotic contract, and Wen Tai began to cultivate as well.

I aim to reach the fifth level of cultivation by the time I enter the finals!
It is estimated that about half of the contestants will be eliminated on the first day, and the top ten will be determined in about four or five days.
