The robber was injured and retreated quickly. He covered his injured chest with his left hand, but he could not stop the blood from rising.

When the robber retreated, Ryan did not continue to pursue, but instead retreated with his sword.

Because the soldiers of the city guard behind the robbers and next to Ryan had quickly surrounded the robbers and surrounded them.

The next step was very simple. Several soldiers of the city guard raised their swords and attacked together. The injured robber tried hard to resist several moves. They immediately got a few moves of swords. After a few breaths, they finally couldn't resist them. They were put on their necks by several long swords and surrendered.

Then several soldiers stepped forward to tie up the robbers and took them away.

After a lot of chaos, the team leader shouted with a pale face that everyone should not relax and continue to guard the city gate.

Then, the captain walked to Ruian and said to Ruian with great gratitude: "Brother, thank you for your life-saving grace. If you hadn't helped you, the robber might have killed me and ran away."

"You're welcome, this is also the responsibility. Since I have done this task, I will naturally take action when I encounter an enemy attack." Ruian said humbly.

Then the team leader thanked him again and promised to report to his boss and repay Ruian after a while.

After a moment, a correspondent came to the city guard and informed the robbers that they had all been arrested and that the city gate could be opened for people to pass.

Then after a panic in and out of the city like a storm, the city gate returned to normal.

It was dark at this time, and the mission of Ruian and others was over. They could go back after returning to the city guard station to receive the reward.

However, what made Ryan very happy was that when he received the reward, he received two gold coins, which was ten times the 20 silver coins he had agreed to have.

The City Guard officer also specifically stated that this was the reward for Ryan's excellent performance and assisting in catching the robbers. This made others envious.

With the two gold coins that were rewarded, Ryan wished he would have such a reward every day. Unfortunately, like today's situation, it is hard to come by. Moreover, this situation is too dangerous. If you are not careful, you will easily lose your life.

…………

Afterwards, Ruian lived a dull life. Although he still had to work in the city guard every ten days, he was just a dull and boring job.

It was soon more than a month, and it had been half a year since Ryan entered Pal Comprehensive College.

Ruian's strength has made rapid progress through the continuous practice day and night. Although Ruian's fighting spirit level has not yet broken through to the level 2 swordsman level, with his current fighting spirit growth rate, I believe it will not take long.

Recently, the college has been very lively because the college holds a large-scale competition in the middle of the year, that is, each grade is divided into grades, and then the top three in each grade will be determined.

This is somewhat similar to the mercenary competition that Ryan had participated in before. When he first heard this information, Ryan thought there were many bonuses and was very interested in participating in the competition. However, when he heard that the winner only received the first place in the grade, he had almost no rewards, and the top three only received a high-quality sword, he completely lost interest.

However, not everyone is as low-key as Ryan. Just for the sake of the first place in this grade, most people ignore their strength and alcohol. They sign up immediately, and they also call it accumulating experience.

So the college has been very lively recently, and everyone is discussing the mid-year competition.

This made Ryan even more determined not to participate. Ryan was not afraid of losing. Although his fighting spirit level was only average in the second grade, with his sword skills, he still had a chance to win the first place in this grade. But what if he got the first place in the grade? In addition to being jealous and causing trouble for himself, he could only get a Xu Ming, whom Ryan avoided and was afraid of being the first place in the grade, and a sword that he didn't know what kind of thing he was.

It's not worth the loss!

Ryan decided to take advantage of the opportunity of those experts to compete and practice more by himself to narrow the distance with them.

But soon, Ryan's plan was interrupted because Herries came to look for him.

As soon as Ryan asked, it turned out that Herries had not participated in the competition, because he was not strong enough to avoid being ugly.

And Herris didn't seem to have to ask, and he knew that Ryan would not participate.

Herris came to Ryan this time, not to chat with Ryan. He pretended to be mysterious and said to Ryan: "If you don't go to the grade competition, you have a better place to go."

"Oh, where?" Ryan was not very interested, but asked in Herris's words.

"Did you know that at this time of year, we in Skayas City will hold a large-scale trade fair once a year?"

"Trade Fair? I don't know what it is for?" Ryan was a little interested.

"The trade fair is naturally a trade." Herris smiled and continued, "When the trade fair is held every year, it will attract a large number of merchants and some rare treasures to trade."

"Treasure? What treasures are there?" Ruian became even more interested.

"Haha, treasures are a general term. As long as they are rare and valuable things can be called treasures, but this transaction will not limit what to trade, so all kinds of things will appear. Generally speaking, the more common transactions include various treasure jewelry used by ordinary people, various weapons and equipment used by swordsmen, various magic props used by magicians, and sometimes some intermediate fighting qi secrets and sword skills will appear."

"Is there any magic storage bag?" Ryan remembered the spoils he had been keeping, the magic storage bag.

"Yes, it's usually sold in magic stores, but the space inside is very small, and the quantity is not large, and the price is expensive." Herris seemed to understand the market more.

"Oh, I can't afford all you said." Ryan sighed.

"But look, it's good to increase your knowledge." Herris retorted and suggested, "I think it's not good for you to stay in the dormitory and practice. You'd better accompany me to go to the fair."

Ryan thought for a moment, and finally nodded in agreement. Then he asked again: "When will the trade start?"

"The trade will last for half a month starting tomorrow, but there will be some heavyweight things on the first and last days."

"Well, OK, let's go shopping together tomorrow. But where will it be held?"

"Just on the commercial streets of our Skayas City, the city lord specially set out that area as the venue for the fair. Almost all famous shops in the city are concentrated there. I guess these shops will bring out a lot of treasures to sell tomorrow. The auction houses in the city will also hold a large auction tomorrow."

“Auction?”

"It's just to take something out for everyone to bid for, and the higher the price will be." Herris thought Ryan didn't understand, so he explained.

"I understand. You come here tomorrow and I will go with you."

"OK."

Early the next morning, Ryan rarely waited for Herris to arrive in the dormitory without exercising.

Soon, Herris arrived and the two went to the fair together.

On the commercial street of Skayas, people come and go.

In addition to many shops opening, there is also a street dedicated to some small vendors setting up street stalls.

Ryan and Herris walked slowly and found that they had gained a lot of knowledge, especially when there was a Herris who seemed to recognize everything, who kept introducing it.

"This is the wolf skin of the level 2 monster beast, which is unique to the Warcraft's Corner. The blue-haired wolf is generally a group of monsters, which is very difficult to hunt. However, there are several relatively large holes on this wolf skin, which are probably made when they were killed. If the whole wolf skin is very complete, the price will be very expensive and many people will buy it, but this one is much cheaper and not many people will want it."

"This walnut branch is said to be a good material for magicians to make magic wands, but this one looks like it has not grown for a long time, and it is not straight, so it probably won't be sold for a good price."

"These pearls are deep-sea pearls unique to the outside seas, and are said to be only found in a kind of mussel-like monster. However, in our inland cities, there are many fakes. If you don't know how to identify them, it's easy to buy fakes."

"Many of these street stalls are defective and there are also many fakes. If you don't understand, you will easily suffer losses. However, if you know well and have better luck, you will easily find some treasures that others don't know at a very low price."

...

Along the way, Ryan was so impressed by Herries.

Ryan asked Herris: "How do you know so much?"

Herris's answer surprised Ryan: "There's no way, I don't want to understand these things, but since I was a child, my father forced me to learn these things."

After hearing this, Ryan was a little confused about Herris' identity. After dating for so long, Ryan always thought Herris was an ordinary student and had never asked him, but now it seems that it is obviously not that simple.
