Background and History
Tang Ge meets Xia Ming at the Adventurers’ Guild and invites him to join a quest with the mage Sherlock. Their target is a level-five Sabertooth Tiger in Green Caterpillar Forest. Tang Ge leads the party through the forest, keeps watch at camp, and fights off Storm Mad Wolves 6 7 8.
Su Weiwei kills the tiger before the party can hunt it, but gives them its fangs so they can complete the quest. The group then discovers an Earth Essence Gold vein. Tang Ge and Su Weiwei help excavate it and confront an Earth Giant Lizard while Xia Ming and Sherlock escape its immediate reach. Xia Ming gives Tang Ge one-sixth of the gold—enough for a set of warrior equipment—and Tang Ge later divides the quest’s 300-gold-coin reward evenly 11 12 15 16.
During a later journey into Mist Forest, a beast tide sweeps Tang Ge away. He survives by landing on a Flame Demon Rhinoceros and riding it until the tide disperses. After finding and eating a Fire Luo Fruit, he returns as a level-six warrior 86 109. He subsequently reaches the Magic Martial Tournament quarterfinals, where Arthur defeats him 143.
Lan Ning later trains Tang Ge in combat techniques, helping him reach level seven. Tang Ge accepts an invitation to join the Sacred Council, then travels to Rhine City with Azure Flame Academy students to support Xia Ming 157 190 225.
