The Hunting Gathering organized by the Hunter Mercenary Company also began on the second day as scheduled. The sun had just risen and the entire Broken Soul Town was drowned by the noise of the human flow. There were actually many more people in the town than usual!
After Shen Xuan woke up from his cultivation state, he did not hesitate. After informing Chen Changtian, he immediately rushed towards the center of the town. That was where the Hunting Meet would be held.
At the intersection of several streets in Duan Hun Town, there was a large square. This square, which usually appeared extremely wide, was filled to the point where it was extremely crowded. This was also the first time that Shen Xuan had seen such a vast scene in Duan Hun Town.
The focal point of the noisy human flow was the middle of the square. There were quite a number of people seated on the high platform above. However, from the clothes on their bodies, it was obvious that they were the upper echelons of the Hunter Mercenary Company.
"Not only are there people from the town in this square, but there are also many people from the nearby towns.”Chen Xuan muttered and looked around lazily. The surroundings were covered by people, and there were many confident youths among them. They were all juniors who wanted to participate in this hunting meet.
Although Duan Hun Town was the closest to the Bewitching Mountain Range, there were other small towns or villages slightly further away. The people from those places would often come to the Bewitching Mountain Range to try their luck.
" Looks like the juniors participating in the Hunting Meet are all over there…" With a thought, Shen Xuan turned his gaze towards a gathering point in the northwest direction of the plaza. Almost all of the people gathered there were youths. Moreover, there were several familiar figures among them…
After hesitating for a moment, Shen Xuan still shook his head and walked towards the direction where the youths were gathered. After all, this was his first time participating in this Hunting Gathering, and he did not know much about the rules. If something went wrong and he was stripped of his right to participate, it would not be fun.
"Eh…Shen Xuan? Why are you here?" Shen Xuan had just walked into the gathering point when a voice was transmitted over. Following which, a fifteen-year-old youth ran over.
Hearing this, Shen Xuan was stunned. However, when he saw the youth running over, the corners of his mouth lifted into a smile. He said to the youth," Lin Wu, why can't I come?" You, on the other hand, have been missing for nearly two months. Where have you been?”
The young man in front of him was called Lin Wu. He had a good relationship with him since he was young and could be considered one of his few friends in Duan Hun Town.
"Hehe." The youth called Lin Wu chuckled and immediately said,"I broke through to a six star Dou Zhe some time ago. My father asked me to go out and train. I followed a group in the group and went out to train for a while."”After saying that, Lin Wu pursed his lips. It was obvious that he had not had a good time in the past two months.
" You've broken through to six-star?" Shen Xuan raised his eyebrows. Soon after, he sensed the obscure ripple being emitted from the former's body. A smile surfaced on his face. This kind of ripple was indeed that of a six star Dou Zhe.
"Why did Uncle Shen let you out this time? Didn't he not allow you to participate in this hunting party in the past?”Lin Wu smiled and asked seriously.
"This is nothing much. Perhaps you've seen that I've grown up and thought it through…" Shen Xuan also smiled and randomly said. After which, he heavily patted Lin Wu's shoulder and said,"You brat have broken through to a six star Dou Zhe. You should be able to obtain a good result in this Hunting Meet, right?"”
" It's not that simple…" Lin Wu laughed bitterly. He looked around vigilantly and leaned close to Shen Xuan's ear," I heard that Gao Qing had broken through to a seven star Dou Zhe half a month ago. For some reason, he might be hostile towards you. You have to be careful!"”
"Oh?" Shen Xuan's brows were tightly knit together. Although he had long expected that there would be a seven star Dou Zhe in the Hunt Gathering, his face still involuntarily twitched when he heard it with his own ears. This was especially so since he had quite a bit of enmity with this seven star Dou Zhe…
"So, you have to be careful in this hunting meeting. Although you can't kill people there, if you encounter someone who has a grudge and are taught a lesson, the deacons won't say anything.”Lin Wu glanced at Shen Xuan and said.
Although he did not know why Shen Xuan would participate in this Hunting Gathering, the latter's strength was not a secret in Duan Hun Town. He was much weaker than him. To put it bluntly, he was an existence at the bottom. If he really met him, he would definitely be taught a lesson.
" I'm fine…" Shen Xuan smiled faintly. A cold glint flashed across his eyes, but it was quickly concealed by him. If Gao Qing wanted to harm him, he was not a pushover either. If he wanted to give it a try, he had to be prepared to return in defeat.
"In any case, you have to be careful. With your current strength, it is not a good thing for you to face a seven star Dou Zhe. Even if I were to face him, I do not have the confidence to be able to last ten exchanges with him.”Lin Wu shook his head and immediately cast his gaze towards a middle-aged man not far away. There were quite a number of youths crowded there.
"Let's go get a number tag too. Without that, we won't let you participate in the hunting club.”Lin Wu said and led Shen Xuan towards the middle aged man.
The middle-aged man had a square face and was sitting on a wooden chair. In front of him was a long mahogany table. On it were dozens of wooden tablets made of wood. The wooden tablets were scattered messily and some numbers were engraved on them.
Surrounding the middle-aged man was a group of teenagers. They cupped their hands at the former and said a few words before taking a wooden token from the long mahogany table.
"This is Deacon Liu." Seeing Shen Xuan's indifferent manner, Lin Wu gave the former a look. He immediately walked to the middle aged man and reported his name. After which, he also took a number plate.
"Greetings, Deacon Liu." Shen Xuan walked in front of the middle-aged man and respectfully cupped his hands as he spoke.
"Little fellow, you look a little unfamiliar. Which family are you from?”Attendant Liu raised his head when he heard Shen Xuan's greeting. His lazy gaze swept over Shen Xuan's body as he spoke.
"Little brat Shen Xuan, my father is Shen Changtian.”Shen Xuan cupped his hands once again and said.
"Oh, so you're from the Shen family. You've never participated in a hunting party before, right? "No wonder I don't have any impression of it…" Deacon Liu nodded slightly and immediately picked up a number plate and handed it to Shen Xuan.
"If it's your first time participating in the Hunting Gathering, you have to be careful. The magical beasts inside are quite ferocious. If you go with the mentality of a child playing house, I think you don't have to participate in this Hunting Gathering.”After passing the number plate to Shen Xuan, Attendant Liu seemed to have recalled something and reminded him again.
"I will follow Deacon Liu's instructions." Shen Xuan nodded and carefully took the number plate. The number written on it was thirteen.
This number did not mean anything. Only those who had this number plate could participate in the Hunting Association. Otherwise, even if they obtained good results, they could forget about being outstanding.
"In this Hunting Association, the magical beasts hunted are used as the standard. The stronger the magical beasts hunted, the higher the score. If the strength of the magical beasts is similar, the winner will be the one with the greater number.”The two of them slowly walked towards the gathering point. Along the way, Lin Wu also told Shen Xuan some things that he needed to take note of in the Hunting Association.
Shen Xuan nodded his head slightly. This Hunting Meet used Magical Beasts to measure the strength of each individual. What was tested was not just strength.
"Where will the hunting meet be held?”Shen Xuan asked after a moment of silence. Since it was a hunting guild that mainly hunted Magical Beasts, it was naturally impossible for it to be in this small town.
"I'm not sure. Last year, it was the western region of the Bewitching Mountain Range. The competition was held within a thousand mile radius. Some of the powerful Magical Beasts within were handled by the people within the group.”Lin Wu scratched his head and said.
"Moreover, there was a Magical Beast that had reached the strength of an eight star Da Dou Shi in the western part of the mountain range. In the end, it was the captain who joined forces with several experts to chase it away. I heard that they had paid quite a great price that time!”
"An eight star Da Dou Shi huh…" Shen Xuan frowned slightly. The captain of the Hunter Mercenary Company only had the strength of a nine star Da Dou Shi. Moreover, it was indeed somewhat difficult to deal with an eight star Da Dou Shi Magical Beast. Moreover, there was not only this Magical Beast within this Bewitching Mountain Range.
"Hey! Shen Xuan, you piece of trash didn't hide properly like you did in the past, yet you still dare to participate in this Hunting Gathering?”Just as the two of them were walking towards the gathering point, a discordant voice suddenly sounded from behind them.
Shen Xuan frowned when he heard this. He lifted his head and saw a group of five to six people walking over. The person in the lead was Wang Han, who had a dispute with him that day.
"What's wrong? Do I need your permission to participate in this hunting event?”Shen Xuan pulled Lin Wu by his side and lightly smiled.
"That's not it. It's just that my Broken Soul Town has many guests today. If people see some useless things, they will mistakenly think that my Broken Soul Town's juniors are useless.”A cold glint flashed across Wang Han's eyes. However, he quickly concealed it as he clenched his hand and spoke.
"This fellow has actually advanced to a six star Dou Zhe!”Shen Xuan's heart jumped when he sensed the obscure ripple being emitted from Wang Han's body. When he saw the former half a month ago, he was merely a five star Dou Zhe. It seemed that Wang Han had improved quite a lot during this half a month.
The corners of Shen Xuan's mouth curled up. Just as he was about to speak, Lin Wu beside him could not hold it in any longer and stood out.
"Wang Han, you don't have to worry about the things here. Just mind your own business and stop making so much noise!”
"So it turns out that you've managed to get close to someone. No wonder you speak with such confidence today…" Wang Han smiled when he heard this. However, his heart skipped a beat. He had only advanced to a six star Dou Zhe a few days ago while Lin Wu had advanced two months ago. Anyone with discerning eyes could tell who was stronger and who was weaker.
"Hehe, Wang Han, I still remember what happened that day. Don't worry, I will get it back sooner or later.”Shen Xuan smiled faintly. His tender face was as calm as an ancient well, as if he was not angered by Wang Han's words.
" Hehe, you will have a chance at the Hunting Meet. However, you just have to stop hiding behind others when the time comes…" Wang Han's lips curled into an arc as he said.
"Don't worry, I will naturally be the one to collect the debt.”
