Song Baliang was very displeased with the behavior of the dragon clan, who called him bald. He stepped harder on Long Xuan's head, forcing Long Xuan's face into the floor.
Long Xuan felt humiliated and shouted curses. Song Baliang laughed heartily and said, "Just a little green bug, and it dares to fight me."
"Xiao Wu, what kind of person is your friend? He has actually achieved the Vajra Body; he must have quite a reputation in the Cultivation world," the dragon clan's Second Elder quietly asked Long Xiao Wu.
Long Xiao Wu replied, "He is the Senior Brother of Xuanfo Temple, ranked first among the disciples of the Five Major Sects. With his innate Vajra Battle Body, he is unbeatable in close combat, even compared to my true form as a dragon."
"Ah, no wonder," Second Elder stroked his beard and sighed.
The Grand Elder naturally heard the conversation between Long Xiao Wu and Second Elder. He nodded and looked at Song Baliang, saying, "I have heard that you are the top disciple among the Five Major Sects in the Cultivation world. It is only normal for you to defeat Long Xuan. Moreover, you possess many Supreme Dao Artifacts. If you let Long Xuan go, this round is yours."
Song Baliang snorted and said, "The Buddha has already said he wants to take him as a mount. If I just let him go after all this fighting, wouldn't that be a huge loss? Bring something to exchange!"
"This..." The Elder of the Dragon Clan was speechless.
"Ungrateful! To injure someone from my Dragon Domain, not giving you the death penalty is already a great mercy!" a proud Dragon Boy shouted.
"Taking advantage! Kill him!" another Dragon Boy said.
"Ah—" A scream echoed again as Long Xuan let out a muffled wail, his entire head pressed into the floor.
The Grand Elder frowned slightly, showing some displeasure. However, since Long Xuan had indeed lost, he sighed and said, "A member of the dragon clan cannot be made a mount for humans. No matter how intelligent or extraordinary humans are, it cannot be done unless it is a legendary emperor who can command all races and is worshipped by three thousand worlds. Only such a person qualifies. Now tell me what you want."
Song Baliang was not one to push his luck without giving others an out; after all, this was the dragon clan. With Xiao Wu caught in between, it would be awkward. He immediately sent a message to Zhao Yang: "Junior Brother, what should we ask for? Dragon Pearls?"
"Are you looking for death? Dragon Pearls are their inner dan; ask for Holy Medicine!” Zhao Yang replied irritably.
Song Baliang hummed in agreement and held up three fingers: "I won't ask for much; just three Dragon's Saliva Fruits!"
"Agreed!" The Grand Elder immediately responded.
"That's too little!" Zhao Yang sent another message.
Song Baliang had not yet put his hand down when he immediately adjusted three fingers to five, speaking naturally, "And five more of those other Dragon Clan Holy Fruits!"
"This..." The Grand Elder hesitated for a moment.
"Still not enough!" Zhao Yang transmitted again.
Song Baliang extended both hands simultaneously, resembling a market vendor, and declared, "I need at least ten; I won't sell for a single one less!"
"Sell? This filthy and lowly human thinks he can treat our Dragon Clan like this!" One of the Dragon Clan members shouted angrily.
"Fine, ten Holy Fruits may be a lot for your kind, but for us Dragons, it's hardly worth more than a few cabbages. Come on, go pick ten Holy Fruits from the roadside to give to this Bald." The Dragon King on the Golden Seat said.
The faces of the other Dragon Clan members showed signs of pain. The Holy Fruit, especially those grown in the Dragon Domain, took over a hundred years to mature. Many from the Dragon Clan had never tasted the Holy Fruit, particularly the younger generation. Yet this bald human dared to demand ten Holy Fruits, using their own Long Xuan as leverage right in front of them.
Before long, a Dragon Boy brought out a Silver Carved Glass Plate, which contained exactly ten Holy Fruits.
"Come, come, you really are too polite; if you're coming, why bring anything?" Before the Dragon Clan girl could reach him, Song Baliang snatched the fruit plate from the boy's hands and picked up a Dragon's Saliva Fruit. "I wanted to eat this at the Hundred Birds Night Market, but that bastard Yuan Lie snatched it away. I didn't expect it to taste so good."
As Song Baliang ate and commented on the fruit, he handed one to each of his companions. There were eleven of them in total; excluding Long Xiao Wu, there were exactly ten others. Nangong Wuxin, Scholar Xiu, and Yu Qingsnow each received their share of the Holy Fruits. However, when it came time for Yuan Shu, he directly handed the plate over but took the Holy Fruit into his own hands instead. Glancing sideways at Yuan Shu, he said, "I haven't tried this fruit before, so I won't give it to you, brother. Hope you don't mind?"
A mix of white and red crossed Yuan Shu's face as he felt somewhat embarrassed. He forced a smile and replied, "Song Shixiong, if you want to eat it, then please do."
Nodding in acknowledgment, Song Baliang split the Holy Fruit in half and shared one half with Zhao Yang. The two had an unspoken understanding; they exchanged no words or unusual expressions, as if it were perfectly normal.
The Elder of the Dragon Clan laughed heartily and said, "This Bald is indeed impressive, but as for the rest of you, that remains to be seen. Next up, whoever has higher cultivation will compete with our clan's geniuses. Since we have set a precedent with this first match, let's use Treasure as stakes for the next competitions; I doubt you'll be able to keep up."
"Then allow me to give it a try." A sudden voice interrupted—coming from a woman.
Everyone turned in surprise toward the speaker: it was none other than the cold yet stunningly beautiful Yu Qingsnow.
"Miss truly possesses natural beauty; her True Qi fluctuations are also robust and refined. With such looks and talent, if she were to marry one of our young talents from the Dragon Clan, it wouldn't be an insult to us," said the Dragon Clan Third Elder.
Song Baliang interjected, "This is my junior's wife; she is born precious and destined for greatness—either divine or immortal. How could she possibly marry into your Dragon Clan? Such talk is utterly unacceptable and slanders us."
"You really have no shame! Do you think I wouldn't dare to kill you?" The Third Elder took the initiative to mention the matter of intermarriage with the human race, only to be flatly rejected.
Yu Qingsnow smiled and said, "I have a Millennium Snow Ginseng here, which is a Holy Medicine from the Extreme North Ice Domain. Would it be acceptable as a wager?"
Upon hearing this, the Grand Elder replied, "Although the Millennium Snow Ginseng is precious, our Dragon Clan possesses far more Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures than you can imagine. Holy Medicine is not scarce for us."
"Then let's wager the Sixteen Supreme Killing Swords. If any of your Dragon Clan can defeat my wife, the Peerless Killing Sword will belong to him," Zhao Yang said at that moment.
"In that case, very well," the Grand Elder nodded. The Peerless Killing Sword was notorious, having gained fame since Ancient Times, capable of slaying unparalleled experts in the Tribulation Period.
"If you lose, what will you offer as a counter-wager?" Zhao Yang asked.
"Of course, it will be Holy Medicine!" the Third Elder responded.
Zhao Yang chuckled and said, "Holy Medicine may be somewhat valuable to your Dragon Clan, but to me, Zhao Yang, it's no different from cabbage. I can have as much as I want; let's exchange for something else!"
"Hmph, such arrogance and ignorance," an Old Dragon remarked.
The Grand Elder pondered for a moment and said, "The Sixteen Supreme Killing Swords are a Supreme Dao Artifact, their power ranking among the top five in the Dao Artifact spectrum of the cultivation world. Therefore, I will wager the Dragon Clan's first Holy Dan, the Overlord Pill."
The onlooking members of the Dragon Clan collectively gasped, and even the Dragon King on the Golden Seat showed a hint of pain.
