Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
The Pula Region was close to the capital of the Abu Haier Kingdom.
A group of soldiers from the kingdom’s royal family were guarding its periphery.
When Jiang Bai, Su Muxue and the others arrived, it immediately aroused their caution.
Over the years, the relationship between the Abu Haier Kingdom and its neighboring countries had become more and more tense, and there were also many cases of spies infiltrating their kingdom.
Moreover, there were also secret organizations that entered the Abu Haier Kingdom from neighboring countries to wreak havoc.
Therefore, every region close to the capital had soldiers from the kingdom’s royal family guarding them.
After Su Muxue saw that the group of soldiers had issued them a warning, she had a nervous expression on her face.
She looked at Jiang Bai and waited for his response.
However, she didn’t expect that Jiang Bai would actually smile and immediately row the boat forward.
“This is dangerous!” Su Muxue shouted loudly.
At this moment, the soldiers kept issuing their warning.
“Warning!”
“You are approaching the Pula Region!”
Su Muxue was already very anxious, so when she heard the urgency in the voice of the soldiers, she panicked even more. She hurriedly covered her eyes, not daring to continue watching what would happen next.
However, an unexpected scene played out.
As Jiang Bai approached the soldiers, they were slightly stunned at first, but then they lowered their heads.
“Great adventurers!”
A soldier spoke with a respectful tone, “May I ask if you can help the Abu Haier Kingdom resolve its issues with its neighboring countries?”
Su Muxue was stunned when she heard the soldier’s plea.

She whispered, “How did this happen? Weren’t these soldiers warning us just now?”
On the small boat behind them, Cloth Bag and the other two also showed surprised expressions.
The turn of events had come too abruptly.
This group of soldiers actually lowered their heads and asked for the help of Maise the God.
Cloth Bag thought of a possibility and exclaimed, “Is this the effect of the Dragon Slayer title? It’s unbelievable!”
Beside him, Singer Qiqi and Infinite Sin were filled with curiosity.
They wanted to know what this group of soldiers needed from Maise the God.
They glanced up and noticed that there was a title above the heads of these soldiers.
[Royal Family Imperial Guards Level 65]
The so-called imperial guards were the soldiers who specialized in protecting the royal family of the kingdom.
Singer Qiqi and Infinite Sin’s gazes were fixed on the soldiers’ levels.
Level 65!
The difference in levels between them and the soldiers was something they still could not overcome.
If these soldiers made a move against them now, they would not be a match for the former at all without the presence of Maise the God.
When they realized this, they looked at Maise the God, wanting to know what choice he would make.
“What kind of trouble has occurred in the kingdom?” Jiang Bai asked the soldiers.
Hearing this, the soldiers revealed bitter expressions
The imperial guards could only defend the kingdom; they needed someone else to go to a neighboring country and carry out a secret operation.
They also needed people to participate in the Martial Arts and Magic Exchange.
Such exchange meetings could only be attended by newcomers, and adventurers like Jiang Bai and Su Muxue were the most suitable candidates.
The soldier thought for a moment and said, “If you can pass our test, then I can recommend you to the royal family of the kingdom! You will be the first contestant to participate in the next exchange.”
As the soldier spoke, a mission interface appeared in front of Jiang Bai and Su Muxue.
[Mission: Exchange Meeting between Two Countries]
[Difficulty: Diamond grade]
[Introduction: The annual exchange is a test of martial arts, swordsmanship, and magic. This is a team battle and a competition among the strongest rookies every year!]
Su Muxue’s eyes widened as she looked at the mission interface.
Exchange Meeting?
Diamond grade difficulty?
She could imagine that there would be great tension during the exchange meet between the two countries, and it might even lead to some conflicts.
Cloth Bag, Infinite Sin and Singer Qiqi also saw the mission interface.
“Maise the God, are we going to accept this mission?” Cloth Bag asked.
“Yes!” Jiang Bai turned around and nodded.
Due to this being a team mission, everyone in the team had to accept this mission before they could participate in the exchange meeting.
“Also, what did the soldier mean by the test?” Cloth Bag asked, confused.
“Yeah, I heard from the soldier that after passing the test, he will recommend us to the royal family? What is that about?” Singer Qiqi asked with a face full of doubt.
Jiang Bai smiled faintly.
He naturally knew what the soldier meant.
The soldiers were special NPCs that only the first batch of players who arrived in the Pula Region would encounter.
If they could pass the test of these NPCs, they would become saviors of the royal family. The royal family would then provide them resources for the exchange meeting between the two countries.
If the first batch of players failed this test, the NPCs would also leave the state region.
The other players who arrived later wouldn’t be able to meet the imperial guards either.
“We’ll know after asking,” Jiang Bai said.
Although he knew what would happen, the others didn’t. Naturally, they required clarification from the soldiers.
After the soldiers explained everything, Su Muxue, Cloth Bag and the others also understood the purpose of the test.
So this was how the imperial guards selected suitable candidates to participate in the exchange meeting on behalf of the royal family

“Yes!” Jiang Bai said while nodding.
If the lineup was strong, then the team would be invincible.
Jiang Bai continued, “You guys also need to change your classes! A team formed from players who have undergone their second transition will be highly competitive in the exchange meeting.”
As he finished speaking, Cloth Bag, Singer Qiqi and the others looked at each other.
They remembered clearly that the difficulty level of this mission was diamond grade.
Obviously, they would meet many strong people there.
Therefore, what Maise the God said was right. If they wanted to be competitive, they needed to go through their second transition.
“But I can’t change my class!” Cloth Bag had a depressed look on his face.
“A Holy Dragon doesn’t need to go through the second transition. You’re strong enough. What you need to do next is to continue developing the skills you’ve mastered,” Jiang Bai replied.
Hearing this, Cloth Bag heaved a sigh of relief.
He had thought that if he couldn’t change his class, then he wouldn’t be able to join Maise the God’s team.
If that was really the case, then he would regret it for the rest of his life.
Soon, Jiang Bai, Cloth Bag, Su Muxue and the other two formed a temporary lineup.
“Great adventurers, are you ready for the test?” the imperial guards walked up and asked.
“Yes!”
Jiang Bai nodded.
“What about you? Are you ready?” the imperial guards asked Cloth Bag, Su Muxue, and the others.
“Of course!” they answered excitedly.
As soon as they finished speaking, the imperial guards nodded and got into formation.
At the back, a mage immediately cast a spell.
A wave of magic rushed out and formed a circle on the surface of the sea, encircling Jiang Bai and his group inside.
Next, they saw that the scenery around them had changed.
They were no longer on the surface of the sea, but in a huge arena.
