This kind of adventure (done at low rank) is why I've never agreed with the people who complain "It takes too long to level up." Why does it matter? Rank mainly just gets you easier access to weapons and mounts, but those can each be earned in battle or stolen from hapless passers-by, as you've demonstrated. And killing off a gang with a weapon purloined from one of their fallen comrades is so much sweeter.
