In the two days, apart from accompanying Xiao Yilin, Xu Feng spent most of his time in the inn, creating talismans, waiting for the hunting ground to open! The spatial treasure was extremely tempting to Xu Feng. Possessing a spatial treasure meant he could carry many things, which would be greatly beneficial for travel and other aspects.

Xiao Yilin, seeing Xu Feng mixing with Zhou Yang and others in the inn, was surprised but did not ask. She was equally amazed to see Xu Feng constantly creating talismans. After exploiting Xu Feng for a lot, she finally felt satisfied.

However, the talismans Xiao Yilin took made Zhou Yang feel extremely pained. But Xu Feng doted on Xiao Yilin to the extreme, allowing her to take as many as she wanted without a word.

Time passed quickly, and Xu Feng and Zhou Yang's group began to prepare to head to the hunting ground.

Xiao Yilin, perhaps knowing her own strength, did not cling to Xu Feng to go. What surprised Xu Feng was that Liu Qianru also participated. Wearing a tight black hunting suit, Liu Qianru's perfect curves were highlighted. Her soft waist was tightly bound, making her chest appear even more prominent. Her slender and fiery figure exuded a seductive allure she had never shown before. The charm of the young girl was irresistible, contrasting sharply with her usual elegance, making her even more alluring.

"Are you here to hunt spirit beasts or to seduce people?" Xu Feng tried to steady his heart and smiled at Liu Qianru, who was indeed very captivating.

Liu Qianru turned her head and gave Xu Feng a cold glance, then ignored him again. She twisted her sexy waist and walked ahead.

Seeing Liu Qianru's behavior, Xu Feng shrugged and looked at Zhou Yang and the others, who were equally stunned by Liu Qianru's beauty: "It seems your task today will be quite challenging. Be careful of the students from the academy who will try to hunt Liu Qianru."

Zhou Yang shrugged, recovering from the shock of Liu Qianru's beauty. He then smiled and said, "Let's go! To the hunting ground!"

After spending a considerable amount of time, the five finally arrived at the hunting ground on the outskirts of the city. As Zhou Yang had said, bringing one more person in was no problem. Xu Feng was easily brought in by Zhou Yang.

The hunting ground was like a small forest, but the density of fierce and spirit beasts in this small forest was much higher than in other deep mountains and forests. The academy captured many every year to replenish the hunting ground.

After Xu Feng entered, he found that many students were already waiting.

The arrival of Zhou Yang and Liu Qianru immediately attracted a lot of attention. Especially when people noticed the seductive Liu Qianru, some young men couldn't help but swallow hard. To them, Liu Qianru was fatally alluring at that moment.

"Master Zhou! You finally decided to come!" After the young men greedily stared at Liu Qianru, a cheerful voice suddenly laughed. Xu Feng followed the voice and saw a young man standing there, about the same age as Zhou Yang.

"Zhao Tong! Since you dare to come, I won't be any less!" Zhou Yang glanced at the young man with disdain in his tone.

Seeing Zhao Tong and Zhou Yang start to confront each other, everyone turned their heads away. They dared not get involved in the conflict between these two great figures.

Wang Lu did not forget to explain to Xu Feng: "Zhao Tong's father and Zhou Yang's father are in a fierce rivalry, which has led to a fierce rivalry between them. Zhao Tong and Zhou Yang are leading figures in their circles, and their conflicts have wide-ranging implications. This time, it's to compete in the hunting ground, which is why he brought you along!"

Xu Feng nodded, understanding why Zhou Yang had tricked him into coming to the arena.

Wang Lu looked at the few people next to Zhao Tong and sighed, "He should have brought a Xuan practitioner who has reached the Spirit Realm. We need to be careful. Whoever loses will suffer a great loss of face!"

Xu Feng nodded and asked, "Can you tell how many Spirit Realm practitioners are here?"

Wang Lu scanned the many students around and shook his head, "Not yet. The gathering place for students who have reached the Spirit Realm is different from ours, so the number is still unknown!"

Hearing Wang Lu's words, Xu Feng felt a headache. The more Spirit Realm practitioners there were, the harder it would be for him to obtain the spatial treasure.

"Zhou Yang! I won't waste words with you. Let's see who hunts more and who hunts the stronger spirit beasts today, shall we?" Zhao Tong squinted at Zhou Yang.

Zhou Yang glanced at Zhao Tong and noticed the stranger next to him, thinking he must be the Spirit Realm practitioner Zhao Tong brought: "Agreed!"

"Great! Straightforward!" Zhao Tong laughed heartily, "It's settled then."

Zhao Tong's lips curled with a hint of disdain. This time, he brought a Xuan practitioner at the peak of the second level of the Spirit Realm, which was enough to outshine Zhou Yang. Thinking of the upcoming victory, he couldn't help but feel excited.

Of course, Zhou Yang was confident. With so many talismans and Xu Feng's strength, they could easily win!

The two sides made their agreement with different intentions, and soon the academy provided the students with horses and bows.

When Zhou Yang gestured for Xu Feng to take a bow, Xu Feng shook his head and did not move forward.

"Are you saying you don't know how to shoot?" Zhou Yang's heart sank; this was not a good thing.

Xu Feng, unwilling to admit it, said, "This kind of small thing is not handy for me."

This statement made Zhao Tong laugh heartily, "Zhou Yang, is this the person you brought? He can't even shoot an arrow, so you're waiting to lose!"

Zhao Tong also thought Zhou Yang had brought a Spirit Realm practitioner. But looking at Xu Feng, he couldn't possibly be one. Now, hearing that he couldn't even shoot an arrow, he couldn't help but feel delighted. The Xuan practitioner he brought was an expert in archery, and in the hunting ground, archery was extremely important. Could you possibly fight a spirit beast in hand-to-hand combat?

Zhou Yang also felt a headache. Having seen Xu Feng's miracles, he thought Xu Feng's archery skills would be high. But he never expected that Xu Feng wouldn't know how to shoot at all. Zhou Yang, who was originally confident, suddenly felt a chill.

Wang Lu and Zhao Bai also felt a headache. With Xu Feng, their main force, not knowing archery, they were already at a significant disadvantage.

"Damn! We should have asked clearly. How could we make such a mistake?" The three muttered under their breath.

But with Zhao Tong's urging, Zhou Yang and the others could only put aside their thoughts: "Let's go!"

Saying this, Zhou Yang and Liu Qianru galloped out. Liu Qianru, riding her horse, exuded a beauty that was both fierce and elegant.

Zhou Yang and Zhao Tong's groups went in different directions, one to the left and one to the right.

Along the way, many wild beasts appeared in Zhou Yang's line of sight. However, it was clear that the four were not interested in these beasts and continued to search for more powerful spirit beasts.

The spirit beasts in the hunting ground were indeed numerous. Soon, the five encountered their first spirit beast. Four arrows shot out in an instant. The four, being from noble families, were skilled in archery. The four arrows hit the spirit beast, which let out a惨叫. More arrows followed, and Zhou Yang and Wang Lu galloped forward, their swords slicing through the beast. A low-level spirit beast was easily slain in their fluid cooperation.

This swift method left Xu Feng speechless.

Watching Zhao Bai clean the spirit beast's body, Xu Feng thought for a moment and said to Zhou Yang, "You guys keep hunting spirit beasts here. I'll go explore the other side!"

Xu Feng didn't want to stay with the four. Not knowing archery, he was useless in front of them and could only be a spectator. It would be better for him to explore on his own and at least try to find the spatial treasure.

Zhou Yang nodded and said, "You're only good at hand-to-hand combat. When the time comes, find a strong spirit beast to fight and add to our score. But don't go for something too strong; your strength isn't enough to provoke those spirit beasts."

Xu Feng nodded and said, "Can't you give me the location of the spatial treasure?"

Zhou Yang shook his head, "I only heard about it. I'm sure the Spirit Realm practitioners are already searching. Just be careful if you encounter one."

Xu Feng sighed and nodded, "I understand! I'll remember to help you kill spirit beasts on the way. I won't let you lose too badly!"

Zhou Yang laughed bitterly, thinking, "You already think we'll lose? Bringing you here was a mistake!"

Although there would be no loss, the thought of Zhao Tong's smug face made him feel uncomfortable. But with Xu Feng, who couldn't shoot, the difficulty of hunting spirit beasts would undoubtedly increase. How could they compete with the Spirit Realm practitioners?

Liu Qianru watched Xu Feng ride away, her clear eyes following his direction. She then said to Zhou Yang, "He's focused on the spatial treasure and won't have much time to help us hunt spirit beasts. If we want to beat Zhao Tong, we need to take a risk."

"Huh?!" Zhou Yang asked in confusion.

"Isn't there a talisman? Are you interested in hunting a large spirit beast? We can try using the talismans to form an array!" Liu Qianru said.

Zhou Yang's eyes lit up, "Good idea! But isn't it a waste?"

"Waste? Our reputation is more important than a few old talismans. Besides, isn't there him? We can ask him to make more after we use them!" Liu Qianru said without hesitation.

If Xu Feng heard this, he would be both amused and frustrated. When did his talismans become "old talismans"? When did he become a professional manufacturer?
