"This can't be, can it?" Tang Yunqing frowned.

"How can it be?" The passersby seemed to know what Tang Yunqing was going to say, and their expressions were slightly smug.

"No matter how strange the quicksand sea is, it's my jurisdiction, and the city lord of the City of Justice will definitely go out to explore. Don't tell me, even the city lord of the City of Justice can't cross it?" Tang Yunqing said.

"That's right." The passerby nodded and said, "And there's more than one righteous city lord, and each of them can't cross it."

"Such an evil sect?" Tang Yunqing frowned, thinking to himself, "I wonder if the divine envoy has tried it yet, and if it worked..." However, this actually had nothing to do with Tang Yunqing, at least not for now, because he didn't want to go into the quicksand sea right now.

He just needed to take a detour.

After asking about the quicksand sea, the two of them found a hotel in the city to rest. They slept in the desert for a few days. Their bodies could endure it, but they were quite tired inside.

After a good night's sleep, the two set off at seven o'clock the next morning, following their sense of calling.

But it wasn't until they'd spent three days wandering around the quicksand sea and returned to Quicksand City that they discovered that the inexplicable calling ended in the quicksand sea.

Thinking about the quicksand sea and the sand sea creatures within it, the two believed that the Dragon Court was most likely located within the quicksand sea. But the problem was that even the City Lord of Justice, a dignified ninth-rank high-ranking judge, couldn't cross the quicksand sea. How could he and Ye Luyao survive?

But one thing was impossible; another was the conviction that they couldn't cross the quicksand sea without even trying.

After making the decision to cross the quicksand sea, the two went to the library as soon as possible, ready to consult some books related to the quicksand sea and find patterns and methods from them. But to their surprise, they soon discovered a way to cross the quicksand sea.

It was very simple: riding a sand seahorse.

In fact, it was possible to ride any creature born in the quicksand sea.

The sand seahorse is simply the most tameable and controllable creature discovered by humans in Quicksand City, and it's also the creature that can best help riders resist the suction force brought by the quicksand sea.

For a long time, capturing, breeding, teaching, and riding sand seahorses has been a mainstay of Quicksand City's industry, and countless adventurers have benefited from it over the years.

At the same time, the Shahaima Race has also become one of the entertainment projects for the residents of Quicksand City.

However, because sand seahorses are highly repulsive to humans, they are difficult to control, and usually require exceptional talent and a long training period.

Tang Yunqing and Ye Luyao were ready to see them for themselves.

Speaking of which, he and Ye Luyao circled the quicksand sea for a full circle before, but they didn't see a single sand seahorse, and they had no idea where they were going.

There's an arena in the west of Quicksand City, and in the center of the arena is quicksand transported by our ancestors from the quicksand sea. It was specifically used for cultivating, training, and competing in sand seahorses.

Speaking of quicksand transport, many years ago, some people even proposed the idea of ​​digging a path to the center of the quicksand sea. It sounds a bit outlandish, but later someone actually did it.

They first isolated the sand in the quicksand sea to prevent the sand from leaking into the excavated area. Then, they began digging. This continued for three years, but the quicksand sea didn't shrink in the slightest.

You should know that the people in the Law Domain are all extraordinary people with a code of ethics, and their sand digging speed is several times faster than that of ordinary people in the Blue Domain and the Holy Land. In three years, the sand they excavated was enough to recreate a small quicksand sea. But the reality is cruel.

This quicksand sea seems to be regenerating.

In the end, those predecessors had to give up on this matter and concentrate on learning how to control the sand seahorses through this sea of ​​quicksand.

When Tang Yunqing arrived at the arena, a competition was underway, and the circular stands were filled with people, shouting excitedly and cheering for their supporters.

Tang Yunqing and Ye Luyao stood near the stands, looking into the arena, and saw eight riders riding their respective sand horses, charging towards the finish line.

The sand seahorses were enormous, over a meter tall with just their upper bodies exposed outside the quicksand. They looked like seahorses. They currently had reins on their necks and mouths, and they reacted to the rider's movements. They moved extremely fast, more than ten times faster than horses on land. While they moved quickly, they would also jump and shake, as if trying to throw their riders off, which made the normal competition seem a bit strange. How was this like a horse race? It was more like a bull riding competition. Who wouldn't be left behind by Sha Hai Ma in a competition?

"Isn't this a seahorse?"

Ye Luyao looked at Sha Haima in the arena and spoke calmly.

He had actually said this many times.

Because all the creatures in the quicksand sea were actually very similar to the sea tribes in the Endless Blue Sea, only one was in the Endless Blue Sea and the other was in the desert.

According to their guesses, after the cataclysm, the Dragon Court was left behind on this land, resulting in many mutations, and the quicksand sea was one of them. The creatures within could only be considered part of the quicksand sea's mutations.

"If so, would you ride it?"

Tang Yunqing thought of Ye Luyao's previous mount and suddenly asked.

"You're just talking nonsense..." Ye Luyao didn't want to talk.

Tang Yunqing saw his posture like this, so he said, "You'll be normal." Then, he remembered that after they left Weilan City and found a horse at the post station, he hadn't asked him about it. He was very skilled at horsemanship. Then, Tang Yunqing thought, perhaps it was because riding a horse on land was similar to riding a seahorse in the sea?

"Of course I wouldn't." Ye Luyao glanced at Tang Yunqing, his eyes as if he were looking at an idiot. "I'm the main body when I'm at sea? How do I ride a seahorse?"

"Then why were you riding a horse before?" Tang Yunqing suddenly remembered that he had overlooked such an important point before, and Ye Luyao wasn't in human form when he was at sea.

"I've seen it in books. Such a simple thing still needs to be learned? Does it still need to be practiced?" Ye Luyao couldn't help but curl up the corners of his mouth.

"Okay." Tang Yunqing paused for a moment. "Then can you do it with seahorses?"

"It's about the same." Ye Luyao nodded.

"Then let's try."

After Tang Yunqing finished speaking, he took a step and walked to the racecourse where the Quicksand Sea rented and sold sand seahorses.

The racecourse was located outside the south gate of Quicksand City, covering an area of ​​about 500 square meters, and there were many sand seahorses swimming around.

Currently, the rental and sales office was busy.

Many residents of Liushai City were queuing to sign contracts to pay for the rental or sale of the sand seahorses.

Tang Yunqing and Ye Luyao weren't surprised at all to see them, as they had read many relevant books and documents before. They knew that sand seahorses could swim not only in the quicksand sea, but also in ordinary deserts. They also ate sand, and were recognized as desert boats in the jurisdiction.

"Hello, we would like to rent a sand seahorse."

The two of them queued for about half an hour before finally arriving at the rental and sales office.

"Please show me your Imperial Envoy Certificate."

The staff at the rental and sales office extended their hands to Tang Yunqing expressionlessly.

"Imperial Envoy Certificate? What Imperial Envoy Certificate?" Tang Yunqing was a little confused.

"You don't even know the Imperial Envoy Certificate?" The staff member raised his head and glanced at Tang Yunqing and Ye Luyao. Seeing that both of them had fair and tender skin, he immediately lowered his head and said, "Aren't you locals? Riding a sand seahorse is very different from riding a regular horse, so you need to obtain an imperial license before you can rent or buy a sand seahorse. If you don't have the necessary reasons, I suggest you find a groom to ride you. But if you must ride one yourself, you should learn how to ride first and then learn how to ride it."

The staff member's explanation made Tang Yunqing and Ye Luyao understand each other, and they looked at each other at the same time.

"Are you sure you want to do it?"

Two seconds later, Tang Yunqing broke the silence and asked.

"Hmm." Ye Luyao nodded in agreement.

"Then may I ask, if he can control Shahaiba, where will he go to get the certificate first? Are there any other requirements?" Tang Yunqing asked.

"Yes, yes, but I advise you to study systematically. Shahaiba has a violent temper, and is very large. Even skilled grooms have been thrown by them and beaten to death, or left in the desert to starve to death. Don't take it seriously." The staff persuaded.

"We'll keep that in mind."

Tang Yunqing said this on the surface, but in reality, he certainly didn't take it seriously. With the strength of the two of them, the former couldn't possibly be thrown and beaten to death, and the latter wouldn't be left in the desert to die of thirst and starvation.

However, their target was the center of the quicksand sea, and if they were careless, they would likely fall into the quicksand sea and be sucked out of their divine power and die.

Tang Yunqing decided in his heart to let Ye Luyao take the exam first. If he didn't succeed, he would study systematically. But Tang Yunqing still had more confidence in Ye Luyao.

Following the staff's guidance and questions along the way, the two soon They arrived at the examination room where they obtained their Shahaima Imperial Envoy Certificate.

After receiving their license plates, they entered the examination room.

The examination room was very large, covering an area of ​​at least 3,000 square meters. It featured both normal desert areas and areas with flowing quicksand like rivers, along with various examination equipment.

When they arrived, they had already learned the specific assessments for the Imperial Envoy Card from the head examiner.

There were three in total.

The first tested the driver's ability to control a Shahaima horse. The examiner would hang two bells on the Shahaima horse. When riding, the sound of the bells must be uniform and consistent, and must not exceed a specified volume.

The second tested the driver's driving ability. The driver had to ride a sand seahorse through obstacles and at intersections with quicksand.

The third tested the driver's control of the sand seahorse while galloping or even running wild, as well as emergency stopping methods.

As long as you passed these three assessments, you could be considered a qualified sand seahorse driver.
