Hunting Cards! Star Dragon

The man in front of him was definitely the most muscular individual among the humans Xingjian had known so far, with a height of nearly two meters.

Now he was stroking his stubble and looking himself up and down with a look of satisfaction on his face.

"This is the one I just mentioned to you." Jiuyue introduced Xingjian: "Instructor Gao De, currently the temporary leader of the Yunxue Village Hunter Guild."

"The word 'temporary' is redundant. You, you want to join the Hunter's Guild, right?"

Xingjian kept nodding.

On the way here, Jiu Yue had already explained this to him in advance.

Hunters are a profession that hunts monsters for money. To become a hunter and receive hunting missions issued by the village, you must first join the Hunter Guild.

This means that you must get the approval of the Hunter Guild boss.

This is the first time for Xingjian to seek recognition from others.

It may be very difficult.

"Let me ask you again, you want to join the Hunter Guild, right?"

"Yes!"

"Good, very spirited! I approve of you!"

o(*￣▽￣*)ブIt’s surprisingly simple.

New content added to the Star Diary: [It is very easy to gain recognition from humans.]

"However, although I recognize you, as a hunter, you still have to follow the rules. If you want to truly become a hunter, you must pass the entry test."

"Test?" Jiu Yue didn't tell Xing Jian about this on the way here.

"Don't worry." Jiuyue leaned close to Xingjian's ear and whispered, "There's a shortage of hunters in Yunxue Village right now. Even if it's a test, it's just a formality at most. It won't be difficult at all."

Judging from the fact that Xingjian can take out the Dragon Claw of the Star Destroyer, he was probably a very powerful hunter before he lost his memory.

Jiuyue didn't think that the hunter entrance test in such a small village would be difficult for Xingjian.

"It just so happens that there's one more person signing up for the Hunter Guild today. You two can take the exam together later."

"There are actually masters?" Jiu Yue asked in surprise.

The hunting guild in the small village could actually sign up two people in one day.

If it were in the past, there would have to be a celebratory banquet in the evening to celebrate the growing strength of the Yunxue Village Hunter Guild.

However, given the current situation, most hunters have been transferred to the front line to defend against dragon attacks, so there is no manpower even if they want to hold a banquet.

Following closely in the footsteps of Instructor Gaode, Jiuyue and Xingjian arrived at the empty training ground behind the guild.

"Let me introduce you. This is a newcomer who signed up for the hunting group today, just like you. Say hello."

The girl was dressed in a red and white shrine maiden costume, with some light armor added on the outside.

The inner shrine maiden costume only leaves the armpits exposed. The clean armpits without armpit hair look white and smooth.

There are pictures here, which can be viewed after the updated version

The long black hair fluttering in the sunlight highlights the cold light of the spear behind him.

"Hello, my name is Saki."

After standing in the training grounds for what seemed like an eternity, Saki's brows furrowed slightly.

But the unhappy expression did not affect the girl's beautiful and pure temperament at all.

"My name is September."

"See you on the stars."

"Another beautiful girl, it seems we really need to celebrate." September kept his eyes fixed on Saki's armpits, praising her secretly.

"Wait, why did I say 'again'?"

It was a rare moment of clarity in the world, and Jiu Yue realized that the person standing next to her was not a beautiful girl at all.

What’s infuriating is that, to be fair, Hoshimi’s deceptively cute appearance is prettier than Saki’s, and more to Jiuyue’s liking.

"Before the exam, regarding the weapons..." Instructor Gode glanced behind Saki. "A spear, huh? That's a weapon that suits you better."

Saki's spear was different from traditional hunting spears that were made entirely of pure steel.

The gun has a slender wooden body, with only the head made of steel, trading weight and power for a light feel that is more suitable for women to use.

At the same time, it retains the advantage of a spear that is an inch longer and an inch stronger, allowing it to maintain a relatively safe distance and launch an attack when fighting large prey.

Compared to Saki, Hoshimi came with nothing.

"Xingjian, just pick any weapon you want to use."

Instructor Gao De pointed to the rows of cheap, trial-grade weapons displayed in the training grounds.

Greatsword, sledgehammer, spear, battle axe...

"For female hunters, due to their height and strength disadvantages, it's recommended that they use long-range weapons. For example, the bow and arrow that Jiu Yue excels at, or the crossbow, are both suitable."

Xingjian has wanted to complain about this for a long time.

Jiu Yue is a swordsmith, but when hunting, he does not use a katana at all, but chooses a bow and arrow instead.

"With my strength, it's difficult to bring out the advantages of the katana~"

This is September’s own explanation.

In other words, even the forger himself felt that a katana with a short attack range would be difficult to use in large-scale hunting.

"Instructor Gao De, let me correct a wrong view of yours." Jiu Yue said.

"Wrong view? Are you saying that female hunters are not suitable for using bows and arrows that require arm strength?"

Jiu Yue's arm strength, the reason why he can draw a bow easily, is entirely due to the training he has gained from swinging the forging hammer on a daily basis.

Sighing helplessly, Jiuyue pointed at Xingjian and said, "No, let me correct your mistake. This guy is actually a man."

"Huh?" Instructor Gao De's eyes widened in disbelief. "Are you kidding me?"

Even Saki, who had remained indifferent until a moment ago, flashed a look of surprise and stared at Hoshimi intently.

"It's true." Xingjian himself nodded further to confirm.

"Such a pretty boy..." Saki muttered softly.

For just a moment, September noticed that there seemed to be some desire in Saki's eyes.

September had heard that many of the people who served God, such as witches, nuns, and priests, would be interested in little boys.

Looking at Saki dressed in a shrine maiden costume, could it be that Hoshimi is being targeted by the clergy?

"Ha! Ha! Ha!" Instructor Gao De laughed his signature three-part laugh again: "Since you're a man, you should use manly weapons!"

After saying that, Instructor Gao De took a deep breath, grasped the hilt of the greatsword with his strong right arm, and raised the giant sword, which was longer than his entire body, with one hand.

"Heavy weapons are a man's romance. When it comes to hunting ordinary beasts, a broadsword is enough to avoid death in one blow!"

Jiu Yue spread his hands and jokingly said, "If you can't hit the target, no matter how powerful it is, it's meaningless."

Such a heavy weapon would be extremely slow to wield even for a muscular man like Instructor Gao De, let alone other ordinary people.

"That's wrong!"

Instructor Gao De raised the greatsword in his right hand, pulled out the weapon card with his left hand, and inserted it into his belt.

"Armed Mode - 'Roaring Mountain Dragon'!"

The Roaring Mountain Dragon Armor, like armor as thick as rock, is equipped on Instructor Gaode's already tall body, making him look even more domineering.

"The era of hunters has changed! As long as there is an armed card, even a great sword!"

Instructor Gao De swung his sword, and the strength skill of the "Roaring Mountain Dragon" card allowed him to dance with the sword as easily as dancing with a willow branch, and he could even pull out the flower of sword dance.

The intense wind pressure brought about by the heavy mass caused all the grass and trees around the training ground to move.

"How about it, do you want to try it?"

Instructor Gaode looked at Xingjian with anticipation, as if he was recommending something he liked.

"I almost forgot, the instructor is from the Great Sword Sect." Jiu Yue held his forehead with his hand.

The Great Sword Sect is not a formal sect organization.

It is just a group of hunters who are passionate about greatswords and have a strong belief in what they think is the most reliable weapon, and they spontaneously formed an Amway group.

"But, no matter how hard you try, it's impossible to see Xing."

Even if you recommend the greatsword, you have to target different groups of people.

Putting aside the fact that Xingjian currently doesn't have an armed card like "Roaring Mountain Dragon" that can increase the strength level.

Her slender wrist, no different from that of a young girl, didn't look like it could lift a giant sword that was much taller than a person.

"Oh, is that the feeling?"

Xingjian's white fingers gripped the hilt of the sword.

"Impossible! Don't force yourself." Jiuyue smiled and waved her hand. "Only a muscle idiot like the instructor would like this kind of weapon... (っ°Д°;)っ Holy shit!"

The three people in the martial arts arena were as shocked as when they found out that Xingjian was a man.

Maybe even a little more exaggerated.

With a girlishly slender figure, Xing Jian raised the greatsword high in one hand, and even looking at her expressionless and calm state, she seemed to be more relaxed than Instructor Gao De.

“And then—!”

Imitating the instructor's movements just now, I brandished the greatsword and drew out flashes of swords and sabers.

Even Xingjian himself does not have the skill benefits of the armed card.

Instructor Gao De wiped the sweat from his forehead and asked, "Am I still sleepy today?"

At this moment, a loyal Great Sword Sect believer began to have deep doubts about his own strength.

"You, what's wrong?"

When Xingjian stopped waving, Jiuyue immediately rushed over out of curiosity.

"How can you hold a big sword with arms thinner than mine?"

Without saying a word, he touched Xingjian's arm. Jiuyue thought it would be as soft as a girl's skin as she had imagined.

“Oooh, so hard!!”

It's completely different from what I imagined.

Beneath the fair skin, the blood surges like steel.

"Is this a man's body?" Jiu Yue couldn't help but rub Xing Jian's wrist again, her eyes flickering: "Oh no, it doesn't seem so disgusting after all."

Saki silently cast an envious look at Jiuyue, and was almost about to say, "I want to touch it too."

Xingjian: This is certainly not an ordinary human body.

When he first grasped the hilt of the sword, Xingjian felt that it would be very difficult to lift the sword with the strength of this human body alone.

——The heart of the dragon.

Even though he looks human, there's no doubt that Xingjian is still an ancient dragon on the inside.

The dragon's heart, which is supplied with blood and energy hundreds of times more than that of a human, is enough to allow Xingjian to gain strength far beyond that of a human body even if it is activated at half the power of its dragon form.

"You're a genius!" Instructor Gaode, having recovered from his self-doubt, exclaimed, "If you use a greatsword, you'll definitely become a top hunter!"

"Let me think about it." Xingjian put down the greatsword and was already observing the other weapons on the weapon rack.

What he pursued was not the efficiency of hunting or the destructive power of killing with one blow.

After all, the Star Destroyer, which is already at the top of the food chain, does not need to use human weapons to fight monsters.

Similarly, Xingjian doesn't need sledgehammers, battle axes, etc.
