The "Broken Fang" seed to still be cautious towards Xiao Buli, fixating on him with a direct stare, as if observing what Xiao Buli was about to do.
After a mont's hesitation, Xiao Buli decided to give it a try. Although taming could fail and possibly trigger the beast into a Fury state, he felt confident in his ability to take down the boar after the operation he just perford. So, after creating so distance, he released his Taming Skills on the wild boar.
A white light connected him with Broken Fang. The boar seed impatient, shaking its massive head trying to shake off the strange feeling, but to no avail. A few seconds later, there was a flash of white light on the boar—it had been successfully Tad. Xiao Buli checked Broken Fang's Attributes and was pleasantly surprised.

Quite a nice pet! Xiao Buli felt sowhat relieved in his heart. Although there were no spoils of war from the battle, just acquiring this wild boar was worth it. The creature would make an excellent at shield, and surprisingly, it could also serve as a mount—very nice. For now, he would keep it with him and consider converting it into a mount later when he no longer wanted to bring it along.

However, what perplexed him slightly was that his Taming Skills were only level four; logically, he shouldn't be able to Ta a wild boar with a Wildness level of four. To achieve that, at least level five Taming Skills were needed. But after a mont of thought, he understood. His Beast Compendium had an entry for 'pig', reducing the default difficulty of Taming by one level.
He hadn't felt it was much use before, but now he realized it was sowhat useful.
He cast Resurrection Skills on Broken Fang twice more, and as its health points gradually recovered, its Loyalty also increased to over 80. The wounds on its body also completely healed. The boar, clad in pitch-black, indeed looked majestic. Xiao Buli decided to give it a new na.
After looking it over for a while, he saw its pitch-black appearance and muttered to himself, "Then I'll call you Coal Ball."
With 'Coal Ball' in tow, Xiao Buli made his way along the mountain road. The rest of the journey went by without further threats; a man and a pig were not sothing average beasts could take lightly, and Xiao Buli had no interest in hunting wild animals to level up, so whenever they encountered beasts, they tried to avoid provoking them.
As for the Black Mountain Bandits he was worried about, they seed to have disappeared without a trace. By noon, he had finally left the range of Mist Valley, and a line of blue text flashed on the screen.
System Prompt: You have entered Bull Rush Plain.
Bull Rush Plain was already within the jurisdiction of Nine Dragons City. Not far along, Xiao Buli even saw a patrol of the Golden Dragon Legion's cavalry, marching back and forth on the road in formation.
Seeing these horsen, Xiao Buli breathed a sigh of relief, as generally seeing the city guards ant that he had entered a safe territory.
By three o'clock in the afternoon, he had finally arrived at the gates of Nine Dragons City.
Nine Dragons City was located in the heart of Bull Rush Plain, encircled by a moat. Its towering walls were majestic and magnificent, with nine gates, each topped with the carved head of a ferocious Giant Dragon, which was how Nine Dragons City got its na.
Walking through the city, Xiao Buli found that, even in this capital, NPCs still outnumbered players, who were relatively rare. Of course, there were so players around, and occasionally he could catch a glimpse of one or two players whose presence quickly vanished.
Judging by their equipnt, they were quite impressive; he wondered where they ca from and whether they, like him, were working for soone else.
Xiao Buli didn't rashly approach them but headed straight for the city's Adventurer's Pub, the place where he and Li Jian's group had agreed to et. As he entered, he saw a burly figure in black Scale Armor and a horned helt, sitting in a corner chair.
Beside him sat two n, a large, burly one in shiny new chainmail, and another in black Leather Armor with a strong bow, agile in posture, with a grey wolf lying at his feet—it was Li Jian, Han Baiqiang, and Li Baocheng.
Xiao Buli headed to the remaining empty seat at the table and sat down directly. "Hey, I've arrived."
"Thank the heavens, I thought you wouldn't make it out," said Han Baiqiang with relief. Li Baocheng gave Xiao Buli a once-over, examining his equipnt. The corner of his mouth, behind the screen, revealed a smirk of triumph, (Such shabby gear; seems like he's not doing too well. Looks like I'm the best perforr among the newcors).
At that mont, Coal Ball wedged itself behind Xiao Buli, grunting as it lay down beside his feet, making the screen seem to shake with a thud, startling the three n. They took a closer look and realized that the mountain-like creature was actually Xiao Buli's pet. "Man, where did you catch this thing?"
Li Baocheng imdiately had a realization, "Right, since there's a pig in the Beast Compendium, I should be able to Ta a wild boar too. If only I knew, I wouldn't have caught this grey wolf."
But it was too late for regrets; there wasn't enough ti to catch a new pet in the wild now.
Li Jian wasn't very surprised, after all, it was just a slightly bigger wild boar to him, nothing too special. What he was concerned about was sothing else.
He said indifferently, "Now that everyone's here, let's all log off. Tomorrow, the company's higher-ups are coming here to assess your probation period. Get a good night's sleep tonight, and make a good impression on the people coming from the headquarters. Don't worry, even if your performance hasn't been good, you won't be fired.
At worst, your benefits might just be lowered." Li Jian seed to say casually, but Li Baocheng couldn't shake the feeling that he was implying sothing about Xiao Buli.
All three logged off the ga and left the computer room under Li Jian's watchful eye.
Watching the three leave, Li Jian's expression beca solemn as he pulled out his phone, "Hello, Zhang Hao? I think we've all been mistaken. That newcor nad Xiao Buli—he's already activated blue stripes."
