Douluo Dalu: Seven Kills

Chapter 73: Ambush by the Nether Wolf Pack

After leaving Shrek Academy, Du Weilun led the way, Zhao Gang followed behind, and the group of eight headed towards the Star Dou Great Forest.

Since they were traveling on foot, Huo Yuhao, whose cultivation level was much lower than the others, gradually couldn't keep up with the others, and Wu Feng followed. However, Zhao Gang and Du Weilun ignored all this, as if they didn't see it.

It's like, this is an experience.

Fortunately, Chen Junting, Xu Sanshi, Beibei, and Caitou all had high cultivation and good physical fitness, so with their help, Huo Yuhao and Wu Feng did not fall behind.

The group advanced very quickly, and in half a day they reached the edge of the area not far from the outer area of ​​the Star Dou Great Forest.

After walking a few more steps for nearly a hundred miles, we saw a wooden sign standing on the side of the road that read "Fifty miles ahead you will enter the territory of the Star Dou Great Forest. There are soul beasts roaming around, please be careful."

But before he could step in, Du Weilun stopped in front.

"It's getting dark. After we have something to eat, we will set up camp right here and try to get into the best condition. We will enter the Star Forest tomorrow morning."

At the command, different tasks were assigned to each person.

Since this is the edge of the Xingdou Great Forest, there are basically no soul beasts here, so after Xu Sanshi picked up the firewood, it was directly ignited by Wu Feng's flame to start a bonfire. Huo Yuhao, who was responsible for preparing dinner, also took out the barbecue grill soul guide and cooked the ingredients prepared in the academy.

As everyone continued to move forward, Huo Yuhao's eyes narrowed and he reminded everyone in a low voice, "There are a large number of soul beasts attacking from the front. It looks like the Nether Wolf Pack is preparing to ambush us."
"Teacher Zhao, let him absorb it." Chen Junting spoke up at this time, explaining: "Yuhao's current physical fitness is no less than that of a high-level great soul master. It may not be possible to absorb a soul ring that is more than a thousand years old, but it is still possible for a soul beast that has just entered the millennium."

After everyone nodded in agreement, Du Weilun and Zhao Gang hid nearby, not daring to relax, ready to take action or provide support at any time.

Zhao Gang's expression at this moment was no longer as calm as when he treated Chen Junting just now. Instead, he stared into Huo Yuhao's eyes and said seriously, "Are you sure? You should know that your first spirit ring is only a ten-year spirit ring. There is only one consequence of failing to absorb a spirit ring beyond the limit. I don't need to explain this to you any more."

Zhao Gang then looked at Bei Bei and Wu Feng, asking them if they had confirmed their soul beasts. However, their answers were consistent except for the years of soul beast cultivation and attributes.

Xu Sanshi on the side was swallowing the fish while speaking vaguely, as if he was not afraid of getting stuck by fish bones. "I said the taste is extraordinary. I'm sure if Yuhao opened a barbecue restaurant in Shrek City, it would be a big hit."

"Yuhao, your cooking skills are so good!"

As for Zhao Gang, he was simply shocked.

until…

This shocked Du Weilun and Zhao Gang who were experiencing it for the first time!

"No problem." ×5
"Yes."×6
……

Upon hearing this, Wu Feng nodded in agreement.

When the road ahead was blocked by thorns and there was no way out, he stood in front to clear the way, with the Seven Killing Sword across his chest, and a path was cleared amidst the sword energy. Moreover, in the outer area, the Seven Killing Sword energy released from his body was both majestic and fierce and cold, making most low-level soul beasts dare not approach at all.

Fortunately, Huo Yuhao's cultivation talent was not high. He was able to reach level 20 four months after the start of school. I think it was due to the support of the Nine Treasures Glazed Tile Sect, such as taking drugs. Otherwise, with his cultivation speed of 11 years old and 15 levels, it would be impossible for him to reach level 20.

After summoning his martial spirit, he took the lead and set foot on the trail.

"Although the soul hunting is granted by the academy, our two teachers will only take action when we find the soul beast. So from now on, you should try your best to take action on your own."

Xu Sanshi, Beibei, and Caitou, who were standing by, were shocked by the age of the soul rings that Chen Junting's fourth soul ring had to absorb, but they knew that Chen Junting must be aware of the risks of absorbing a ten-thousand-year soul ring beyond his level, so they did not speak out to dissuade him.

"Yes."

Huo Yuhao's determination did not convince Zhao Gang.

"Teacher Zhao, I have confidence." Fire-attributed sub-dragon species, two to three thousand years old.

Hearing the name "Golden Demon Bird", Chen Junting couldn't help but feel happy, thinking that this was a subspecies of the Emerald Demon Bird. He didn't expect that Shrek Academy really had news of this subspecies of soul beast.

Tomorrow, we will set out along this route.

"A thousand-year-old psychedelic butterfly."

"May I?"

So the outer areas are quite safe.

Thinking of this, Du Weilun felt much better.

Chen Junting and Beibei invited Du Weilun and Zhao Gang while others were talking. This made the two curious people no longer refuse and joined the team to enjoy the delicious food.

After finally asking He Caitou about his soul ring requirements, Zhao Gang had also planned the route for this soul hunting operation.

Chen Junting believed that it was better to rely on oneself than on others, but while he remained alert in his heart, his hands did not slow down at all.

The next morning, everyone was back to their peak form.

A sub-dragon species with thunder attribute, 4,000 to 6,000 years old.

After the meal was over, Du Weilun simply explained a few things to Chen Junting and Zhao Gang, and then disappeared from everyone's sight. There were only two teachers left, and only Zhao Gang, a middle-aged strong man, was left sitting by the campfire. He looked at everyone and said, "It's still early now. After you determine the spirit rings you need and plan your route, go into the Xingdou Great Forest early tomorrow morning to hunt spirit beasts. Don't wait until the holiday in a month before you find the one you like."

So he took out a pen and marked it on the map.

"Well, let me tell you what's confirmed now." Zhao Gang took out a map from the storage soul guide, took a look at it and said, "Xu Sanshi, the Xuanming turtle with dual attributes of water and soil in his martial soul needs a virtual turtle with a cultivation base of more than 4,000 years and less than 6,000 years. Chen Junting, the martial soul Seven Killing Sword, needs a golden demon bird with a cultivation base of more than 10,000 years and less than 20,000 years."

Chen Junting's expression was calm and composed, and Zhao Gang knew that he would not harm Huo Yuhao. After a moment of silence, he finally agreed. Since they were from the same sect and agreed, what could he, a teacher in charge of soul hunting, say?

He Caitou took a bite of the roast chicken and his eyes suddenly lit up.

At this moment, Du Weilun was in front of the two of them again.

"I'm afraid the effect of this spirit ring can still be improved! If so, it's no wonder that Fan Yu wants to take Huo Yuhao into the spirit guidance department and make him a core disciple of the spirit guidance department." Du Weilun, as the director of the Wuhun Department's outer courtyard, is naturally not a fool. He directly analyzed the value of Huo Yuhao's first spirit skill from Fan Yu's actions. But now there is no regret.

After all, Master Xuan’s lessons are still before our eyes.

Beibei nodded, and his elegant and easygoing expression immediately turned serious. "Brother Chen, you are the strongest, so I have to trouble you to walk in front and explore the way. Xiao Yuhao, Wu Feng, you two follow behind Brother Chen. Since Xiao Yuhao, you have the spirit skill of spiritual detection, the exploration mission will be given to you, and Wu Feng will protect Xiao Yuhao closely. As for Sanshi and I, we will be in charge of the left and right sides, and Caitou will be at the end of the team. If we encounter danger, we will use the powerful firepower of the spirit guide to cover the rear."

But when they stepped into the mixed area, the huge trees that blocked out the sun and sky made darkness descend. Huo Yuhao did not save his soul power and explore alone like he did in the outer area. Instead, he directly shared the results of the spiritual exploration with everyone.

As for He Caitou, he took charge of his strengths and patrolled the camp and installed some soul guides. The function of these soul guides was to provide alerts and assist in night watch. Once any soul beast approached, these soul guides would sound an alarm.

"Beibei, you are in charge of assigning tasks."

Chen Junting and Beibei were in charge of setting up the tents. In a short while, they had built six tents arranged in a hexagram. Beibei and Xu Sanshi had one, He Caitou and Huo Yuhao had one, and Du Weilun, Zhao Gang, Chen Junting, and Wu Feng had one each.

When it was Huo Yuhao's turn...

"This is still a ten-year spirit ring!?"
