The Fire Fierce Horse was indeed fiery. After Zhao Xing mounted it, it began to shake violently, trying to throw him off.
Flames burned along its mane, spreading to Zhao Xing’s body. At this moment, Zhao Xing looked like an ’Evil Spirit Knight.’
"You’re quite fierce," Zhao Xing said with a slight smile, then raised his palm.
"Sizzle sizzle sizzle~" In an instant, lightning covered his entire palm, and then he slapped the horse’s head hard.
One thunderous slap later, the Fire Fierce Horse was immediately dazed, its flames dimming.
Just as Zhao Xing thought it had calmed down, the Fire Fierce Horse suddenly reared up again, leaping toward the Gang Wind Wall ahead.
At this moment, Zhao Xing’s body was horizontal, forming a ninety-degree angle with the ground.
The Fire Fierce Horse spewed fire again, its muscles moving in a unique rhythm, trying to shake Zhao Xing off.
Zhao Xing squeezed the horse’s belly hard.
The Fire Fierce Horse’s body instantly plummeted downward.
The Golden Bone Great Success, bones weighing a thousand pounds, Zhao Xing used the martial artist’s little technique Thousand Pounds Fall, causing the Fire Fierce Horse serious trouble.
It felt like it was carrying a mountain, unable to fly, slowly falling toward the plain below.
Horse and rider crashed to the ground, creating a large pit in the grassland.
Zhao Xing used the Earth Palace Skill, causing more than two hundred Fire Fierce Horses, including the Horse King, to sink as if into a mire, their speed sharply reduced until they all eventually stopped.
Only the Horse King struggled a couple of times in the pit.
Seeing the beast still wasn’t behaving, Mr. Zhao lost his patience.
His eyes changed, and he suddenly released the evil Qi honed on the battlefield.
Gold light flashed on his hand as he released a circular mark.
"Submit, or die." (Ten Thousand Beasts True Word·Fire Fierce Horse)
Zhao Xing activated the Ten Thousand Beasts True Word skill, letting out a neighing roar, holding the Slave Seal, and looking at the Horse King below.
He believed this cunning Horse King could understand.
If it didn’t, he would have to forcibly use the Slave Seal Skill. However, Zhao Xing’s Slave Seal Skill was not yet refined enough, and using it might very well kill the Fire Fierce Horse.
Even if the Slave Seal succeeded, this Fire Fierce Horse would go through a very painful period.
Because the principle of the Slave Seal Skill was to leave a spell inside the exotic beast, keeping it in constant fear and pain, forcing it to submit.
The advantage of the Slave Seal Skill was quick results, but the downside was it would wear down the exotic beast’s spirit, turning it into a complete tool.
Therefore, it was generally only used on naturally violent beasts and King Beasts.
"Neigh~" The Fire Fierce Horse King knelt on its front legs. It chose to submit to the new king.
Yes, in the eyes of the Fire Fierce Horse King, Zhao Xing was a Fire Fierce Horse, and their new king.
Zhao Xing jumped from the pit onto the Fire Fierce Horse King’s back, then used Thunderbolt Chains to loop its horse face, fitting the Fire Fierce Horse King with a lightning-style bit.
With a gentle pull, the Fire Fierce Horse King obediently jumped out of the pit.
"Neigh~" It raised its front hooves high, Zhao Xing seated on its back, wrapped in flames, looked like a divine general descending from the heavens.
"Bang!" Its hooves struck the ground, causing a tremor, and a ring of fire spread outwards.
All the Fire Fierce Horse herd heard the command, ran over, and knelt around Zhao Xing.
"Mr. Zhao is amazing..." Ling Ruoxue flew over and, seeing this scene, couldn’t help but have stars in her eyes.
"For the Military Minister of Agriculture Officer to raise horses, it’s really such a waste of his talents." Cao Jiang remarked, watching Zhao Xing easily subdue the Fire Fierce Horse King.
The Fire Fierce Horse King was a Sixth Grade Strange Beast! Cao Jiang had chased it for several hours but couldn’t get close because he wasn’t confident he could win.
This wild-grown Horse King was immensely powerful. If it weren’t for the Heavenly Pegasus by his side helping, he might have been injured by now.
But Zhao Xing had come and instantly controlled the situation, even subduing the Fire Fierce Horse King.
Tao Anchun was bewildered: "He just used the Ten Thousand Beasts True Word skill, and he also knows the Three-Ring Slave Seal..."
Cao Jiang asked: "Yes, so what?"
Tao Anchun looked at Cao Jiang and said: "Don’t you remember what he did after he took office?"
Cao Jiang was shocked: "You mean he learned this recently?"
Tao Anchun explained: "The military department’s transfer order from martial command to civilian duty gave him at most a month’s preparation time, which means he only knew he was being transferred a month before.
Counting this month, he had only been learning the Beast Taming Method for three and a half months!
"Hiss..." Cao Jiang gasped.
"This officer, Cao Jiang." "This officer, Tao Anchun."
"Respectfully meeting Director Zhao, congratulations on subduing the Fire Fierce Horse herd."
The two respectfully ran over to salute Zhao Xing.
"Please rise, both of you," Zhao Xing smiled.
He hadn’t just subdued the Fire Fierce Horse King but also won the hearts of the two Sixth-Rank Ministers of Agriculture, Tao Anchun and Cao Jiang.
Otherwise, Mr. Zhao wouldn’t have put in this much effort.
No matter where, one’s own strength was the fundamental reason!
Princess You Ruo backed him, but if he didn’t show some ability, these people would only show superficial respect, doing things half-heartedly, and not wholeheartedly following him.
After such an event, Cao Jiang and Tao Anchun were truly convinced.
With a background, strength, and reasonable manner, what’s left to be unconvinced about this young superior?
This was definitely someone to rely on!
Even the innocent and lively Ling Ruoxue recognized Zhao Xing’s extraordinary nature and imitated her uncles in saluting.
"It’s getting late, my lords, let’s head back to Tuquan Palace," Zhao Xing suggested.
