Chapter 56 Official Disciple
Clang! Clang!
Two long swords were suddenly unsheathed, shining with bright light.

A series of sharp gazes instantly locked onto Zhang Yuan, carrying a strong warning tone.

Zhang Yuan believed that if he made any unusual moves at this time, he would inevitably be struck by thunder from these disciples of the Punishment Hall.

But he was fearless and stood at the stern without changing his expression.

A disciple from the Punishment Hall with a horse face asked in a deep voice: "Brother Lu, what did you find?"

"No, it's nothing."

As a result, the guy in charge of checking the live water tank replied somewhat awkwardly: "It was this Junior Brother Zhang who caught a big fish, a very big carp!"

He was simply curious because he had never seen anything like it before, and he almost caused such a misunderstanding.

When they heard that it was just a carp, the tense atmosphere immediately dissipated.

The two disciples from the Punishment Hall calmly put away their goose-feather knives.

Their reaction was clearly a bit excessive.

Zhang Yuan didn't care, and pretended to be curious and asked: "Brother, are you investigating the white dragon loach?"

The horse-faced disciple nodded: "That's right, the captain has issued a strict order that the white dragon loach is not allowed to flow out of the Tianma River, so no matter whether it is an outsider or a brother, anyone who fishes in the river must be inspected!"

The matter of the white dragon loach had already been widely known, so he was not surprised how Zhang Yuan knew about it.

"Junior Brother Zhang, if you catch a white dragon loach, you must voluntarily hand it over."

"The helmsman will be rewarded handsomely!"

Zhang Yuan shook his head and replied, "I plan to seal up the boat and put up the nets during this period."

He looked towards the river bay behind him: "With so many fishing boats, I'm afraid we won't be able to catch any small fish in the future!"

The horse-faced disciple touched his nose and said nothing more.

The two disciples from the Punishment Hall quickly searched Zhang Yuan's black-sailed boat, but naturally did not find the white dragon loach.

"Junior Brother Zhang, sorry to bother you."

The horse-faced disciple quickly packed up his team and left.

Then he went to check other fishing boats.

To be honest, Zhang Yuan didn't think such a high-profile inspection would have any effect.

We are not fools. Even if we really catch the white loach, we don’t have to put it in the fishing boat before taking it away.

The truth is that doing things like this can easily cause others to be disgusted or even retaliate.

Various disputes arise!

At the same time, Zhang Yuan did not think that the helmsman Wei Changfeng was a fool. He guessed that this fourth-level Qi warrior had other purposes.

But these are not what he, a small candidate disciple, should care about!
Rowing the sailboat, Zhang Yuan returned to the dock.

He first parked the fishing boat, then brought a large wooden barrel and loaded it with the carp that were stocked in the live water tank.

The big carp had already awakened and was struggling violently, splashing countless water.

But no matter how strong it was, it was still easily suppressed by Zhang Yuan.

When Zhang Yuan arrived at the fish market carrying the fish bucket, it unsurprisingly caused a sensation.

"What a big carp!"

"Meikarp!"

"Oh my god, this must be at least thirty pounds, right?"

"I think it's more than thirty kilograms!"

"Forty pounds!"

Many fishermen and fishmongers gathered around to watch the fun, and they were all amazed.

Zhang Yuan said with a smile: "Name a price."

If it is an ordinary fish, just sell it to the dealer at the market price.

He is a disciple of the Angry Whale Gang and has Chen Zhize as his backer.

No one would dare to cheat the fishmonger unless he is extremely brave.

But this carp is of top quality, it can be called king level, so Zhang Yuan used bidding to sell it.

This is also completely in line with fish market practice.

"Ten taels, I'll give you ten taels of silver!" "Twelve taels."

"fifteen!"

The vendors who hang around the fish market all year round are very experienced. Although this big carp is very rare, they can estimate its approximate weight and identify its quality with just a glance.

Of course, the profit can also be calculated accurately.

After a short and fierce competition, a fishmonger finally bought the carp king for a high price of 19 taels.

In fact, when Zhang Yuan first caught this big carp, he thought about sacrificing it in exchange for source essence.

However, he already owed Chen Zhize one hundred taels of silver, and planned to seal the ship for a while.

This way of spending without earning anything and living off the savings is definitely not a long-term solution.

So after much thought, I decided to sell it.

After selling the fish, Zhang Yuan returned to the fishing boat and sorted out all the fishing gear.

Finally, cover with the tarp.

Thus, I put my fishing life on hold.

But when the trouble with the white loach subsides, he will restart the fishing boat and continue this promising job.

In the next few days, Zhang Yuan continued to go out early and come back late every day.

He devoted all his time to martial arts training, including the Rock Pile, Shocking Wave Palm, Slashing Wave Blade, and Lingbo Step...

No matter how turbulent the outside world was, Zhang Yuan was always immersed in martial arts.

The feeling of making progress every day and improving his strength bit by bit really makes him addicted!

However, as time goes by, the impact of the white loach has not weakened, but has become more and more severe.

Every time Zhang Yuan went home, he could feel the increasingly tense atmosphere in the county.

There were many more patrol officers on the streets, and the number of gangsters of all kinds was also increasing. Members of the Tiger Gang appeared frequently in his sight.

Although the real bloody conflict has not yet happened, Zhang Yuan feels that it will happen soon.

This made him much more alert.

That day, Zhang Yuan was practicing swordsmanship in the training room when he suddenly had an idea.

He turned his head and saw Dong Yuanwei standing at the door, looking at him with an ambiguous look in his eyes.

Zhang Yuan quickly put down his weapon and saluted, "Master!"

Dong Yuanwei nodded and said, "Come with me."

Although Zhang Yuan didn't understand why, he still followed the war hall instructor out of the training room.

Arrived at the Dragon Temple!

The most magnificent and imposing building in Whale Castle is undoubtedly the temple dedicated to the Dragon God.

Just as the common people in the county town believe in the City God, people who make a living on the water generally respect the Dragon God.

Everyone believes that the Dragon God will protect them from strange attacks and make everything go smoothly and as they wish.

Although the Dragon Temple in Whale Castle is not large in area, it is well-equipped and very popular.

A statue with a dragon head and a human body stands on a lotus platform, wearing a tall crown and a dragon robe, full of majesty.

In front of the statue stood the deputy head of the War Hall, Zhao Jinlan, and a white-haired old man.

"Master Zhao."

Dong Yuanwei saluted to Zhao Jinlan and said, "Zhang Yuan brought it."

Zhang Yuan quickly followed suit and saluted: "Disciple Zhang Yuan, greetings to Hall Master Zhao!"

"No gift."

Zhao Jinlan smiled and said, "Zhang Yuan, Instructor Dong said that you are very talented and hardworking. You mastered the introductory martial arts of my Angry Whale Gang earlier than other new disciples."

"And he has learned a lot. He is a real talent with great potential."

The beautiful lady paused for a moment and continued, "So with his recommendation, you will be allowed to pass the entrance examination in advance and become a formal disciple of my war hall."

"Congratulations!"
