Hurry and chase it!!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Four or five guards launched themselves after it, but their speed was nowhere near the warhorse’s.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Old Zhou, and this is the fine horse you were talking about?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Qin Zhanye was immediately displeased.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But Old Zhou lifted his chin.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Instructor Qin, since when did you lose your eye for quality? That is a top-tier special-grade horse!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“It is only two and a half years old this year. This is exactly the age when its spirit is fiercest!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Nonsense. Of course I can tell it is special-grade, but it has not even been tamed yet!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Qin Zhanye pointed at the wildly galloping black horse.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“It actually was tamed, but the horse underwent a mutation once, and its quality jumped directly from premium to special-grade!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I was delighted at first. It is currently the youngest special-grade warhorse in this stable.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“But who would have thought that after mutating, this young horse would become so fierce and impossible to tame?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Old Zhou explained.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Qin Zhanye immediately bristled. “Then give me another— Hey!!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Before Qin Zhanye could finish, Li Mu had already dashed out!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He went straight after the black warhorse, leaving behind only one bold shout:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I want this horse!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Back on Earth, Li Mu had watched film and television dramas.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Whenever a general saw a treasured blade or a fine steed, he would love it so much that even beautiful women and piles of gold could be cast aside.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Li Mu had never understood that before.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But just now, the moment he saw this horse, a fierce urge to conquer it rose within him!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The horse was black all over, a glossy, gleaming black. It was so black that it looked as though it had hauled charcoal from the eastern mountain and dug coal from the western one.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It had double horns on its head and bony protrusions rising from its shoulders.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Amid the mane at its neck were scattered streaks of silver hair.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Its scarlet eyes shone like red lamps.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Li Mu had a feeling.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This horse is mine!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Damn it, what a disaster!” Qin Zhanye gritted his teeth and sprinted after it as well.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>No matter how large the grounds ahead were, they were still bounded.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When Qin Zhanye ran, he was no slower than the horse. He soon caught up to the black steed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He grabbed a fistful of its mane with a savage yank and planted his feet hard.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The black horse let out a pained cry, but it still charged forward without stopping, dragging Qin Zhanye’s feet across the ground and gouging trench after trench into the earth.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Its speed did indeed drop sharply.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Get on!” Qin Zhanye shouted.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Li Mu had already arrived and leaped onto the horse’s back.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The black horse instantly went mad and reared upright.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With one violent shake, it threw Li Mu straight off.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The surrounding soldiers no longer dared go near.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But Li Mu got up again and again, mounted again and again, was thrown off again and again, then got back up again.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Qin Zhanye kept forcing the horse’s head down the whole time, and even he was drenched in sweat.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Li Mu, meanwhile, was soon covered in dust and dirt from head to toe, but the amount of time he could remain on the horse kept growing longer and longer.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At last, on the final attempt, Qin Zhanye released the horse’s mane.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The black horse let out a chilling scream. Li Mu had a flash of inspiration and, with a WHOOSH, yanked out the Size-Shifting Cloak and threw it over the horse’s head!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The black horse’s shrill cry stopped instantly, and its whole body rapidly calmed down as well.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Its hurried breathing could still be heard, and it looked just as exhausted as they were.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Delight appeared on Li Mu’s face as he slowly removed the cloak.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The black horse stirred restlessly once more, but this time it no longer struggled with all its might.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“It is not because its head was covered. It is that cloak!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Qin Zhanye shouted excitedly from the side.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When many newcomers tried taming horses, they instinctively covered the horse’s head, thinking it would calm the horse down.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But practice had proven that covering a horse’s head was useless.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Li Mu looked at the cloak, and sure enough, a strange energy was flowing across it, as though it had formed some sort of connection with the warhorse as well.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He had never expected the cloak to have such a special function too.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Move! Hyah!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Li Mu tried nudging the horse’s belly with his foot, and the black horse immediately burst into a run.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Its posture was beautiful, and its speed was extraordinary.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even Qin Zhanye stared in fascination. Though this horse clearly possessed traits of both the Luyao and the Guya, its speed was no slower than the Yingzhan-type monster horses. It might even have surpassed them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>What kind of mutated monster horse was this?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Li Mu rode in exhilaration for a full ten minutes or more. Even after he put away the cloak, the horse seemed to have accepted him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Li Mu finally reined in before Qin Zhanye.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He was covered in dirt, and the wind had blown his hair into a Super Saiyan halo, yet he was grinning foolishly, so widely that it looked as though his mouth might split.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“You have already thought of a name for it, have you not?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Qin Zhanye laughed helplessly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Yaogu!” Li Mu said as he slapped the horse on the head. He really had already decided on the name.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Qin Zhanye smiled and nodded.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Though Old Zhou was unwilling in every possible way, he still handed the Horse Token over to Li Mu.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And he kept reminding Qin Zhanye and Li Mu that if they ever had the chance, they absolutely had to put in a few good words for their stable.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After chatting with Old Zhou for a while longer, Qin Zhanye finally left the stables with Li Mu.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When they left, both of them were riding horses at an easy pace, partly to let Li Mu’s horse get used to the environment outside the stables.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And that very scene happened to be witnessed by two women.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Those two were Li Xiaohong and Li Lan.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Li Lan was also Li Mu’s cousin, and she was extremely close to Li Xiaohong.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ever since the two of them had entered the Abyss today and seen the warhorses ridden by the officers, they had liked them very much.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Taking advantage of the lunch break, they had asked around and found the military district stables.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They had been thinking that with the Li Family’s current influence, spending a little money ought to let them make an exception and buy warhorses from the military district.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But the moment they arrived, they saw Li Mu and Qin Zhanye walking out together, chatting and laughing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Naturally, they recognized the rank insignia on Qin Zhanye’s shoulder.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Both women frowned deeply.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“How is that bastard laughing and talking with a Senior Wolf Guard?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“And he is even riding such a beautiful warhorse!” Li Xiaohong said furiously.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She still remembered the grudge of the slap Li Mu had given her!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She was still missing a tooth.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Since he had dared lay hands on her, she was absolutely going to find someone to beat Li Mu half to death.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was just that yesterday she had been busy coaxing Sun Long, and today there had been military training.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She had not yet had the chance to arrange for anyone to make a move.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Li Lan shook her head, indicating that she did not know either.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then she seemed to think of something and made a guess.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Could it have something to do with his father? Back then, his father killed no small number of Abyss monsters for the sake of the family.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Could it be that he knew officers in the Abyss-Suppressing Army, so that officer is taking care of him?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Li Xiaohong nodded.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“That must be it! Otherwise, they would never have sold him a horse as a special exception.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“It is just that where did that little cur get so much money? As far as I know, he does not have any money at all!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Li Lan waved a hand and looked toward the stable entrance.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Who cares? In a while, we will call home and report what we have seen.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Come on. Let us go pick out a horse first!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Mm!” Li Xiaohong pursed her lips into a smile, not without a hint of smugness, as she said,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“It seems we were worrying too much. If even a poor loser like Li Mu can buy a horse here,” “then once we reveal our identity, they will probably give each of us a horse for free.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As they spoke, the two of them quickly walked over to the stable entrance.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But before they could get close, two guards stopped them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Halt!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The guards stood ramrod straight and shifted the sabers at their waists, blocking the two women.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Military district stables. Students keep away!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Li Xiaohong smiled faintly and said with absolute confidence, “East District. The Li Family.”\u003C\u002Fp>",1811,"2026-05-30T10:59:06.454Z","2026-06-01T04:31:04.028Z",1,"novelbin.me","9510c619cc3642777d9ad36b4cdffbcabd35219ac37d88db0ca7836c49a24b49","you-stole-my-s-rank-talent-afraid-now-that-i-ve--chapter-14","you-stole-my-s-rank-talent-afraid-now-that-i-ve--chapter-12",99,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fyou-stole-my-s-rank-talent-afraid-now-that-i-ve--cover.jpg"]
