You definitely can't walk to the Soul Hunting Forest, after all, Nottingham is a full 400 miles away from the Soul Hunting Forest.

Notting College has sixth grade graduates every year, and every year they have to go to the Soul Hunting Forest to hunt soul beasts, so they are naturally prepared for this.

Four luxurious carriages with the Notting College logo left Notting College and headed out of the city.

Among the four carriages, one carried the dean and the director, one carried six teachers, and the other two carried thirteen students including Wang Li.

In the busy streets, among the people coming and going, when they saw the luxurious carriage with the Notting College logo, they all quickly made way with awe in their eyes.

Even when they reached the city gate, the soldiers guarding the city were very reasonable and let them go out first.

On the carriage, these soul warriors whose soul power has reached level ten were discussing with great anticipation what kind of soul beast to hunt, what kind of soul ring to obtain, and what kind of soul master to become.

Wang Li did not participate in the discussion. He was not familiar with these senior students. The only person he knew was Wang Sheng, who shared the same dormitory. At this time, Wang Li closed his eyes and thought alone, thinking:

"What kind of soul beast should I hunt? I can just look at Tang San's way, but I must not learn it. After all, the teachers in the academy will definitely not help me catch a 400-year-old mandrake snake."

"The Blue Silver Grass Martial Spirit has neither outstanding attack power nor defensive power. At this stage, it is more suitable to go for the control system."

"If you want to significantly increase the ductility and toughness of the Blue Silver Grass, you should hunt down a vine soul beast. Since it is also a plant, it is easier to absorb. The older the better. However, this also depends on luck."

Thinking of this, Wang Li couldn't help but hope that he would have good luck and come across a vine soul beast that was suitable for him to hunt.

The soul beasts in the captive soul hunting forest are certainly not as abundant as those in the wild. However, under the care of the army and the patrols of the law enforcement teams, extremely ferocious soul beasts or soul beasts that are over ten thousand years old generally do not appear.

Therefore, they will probably spend the next period of time in the Soul Hunting Forest until all the students have obtained spirit rings.

In order to allow all students to hunt a soul beast that suits them as much as possible, the academy has reserved two months for this.

Moreover, the dean and director both showed up in person, which shows that the college attaches great importance to these sixth-grade graduates and they are doing their job conscientiously.

After all, these were a group of soul warriors who didn't even have a soul ring, and they couldn't even put up a decent resistance when they encountered a powerful soul beast.

After a day and night of travel, they officially arrived at the location of the Soul Hunting Forest at noon the next day.

On the outskirts of the Soul Hunting Forest, there is a very lively market with all kinds of shops and all kinds of shouting sounds that never stop.

Even the soul masters who were rarely seen in normal days were shouting and requesting to form a team to hunt soul beasts.

As a frequent visitor here, Nottingham College attracted a lot of attention as soon as their carriage appeared.

With Zhang Wei, a powerful soul master, in charge, Notting College is undoubtedly the object of everyone's currying favor. However, Notting College has its own team of teachers and will not allow unknown soul masters from outside to join.

We found a hotel to stay in, left the coachman and the carriage there, had lunch, and took a short rest.

Zhang Wei and Su Mo, along with all the teachers and students, headed for the entrance of the Soul Hunting Forest. The Soul Hunting Forest was a place where soul beasts were kept in captivity. It was surrounded by a circle of ten-meter-high fine iron fences. There was an open gate at the entrance, but there were at least a hundred fully armed soldiers guarding the area. It was not a place that could be entered without permission.

Their strength is secondary. The forces behind them are the Tiandou Empire and the Spirit Hall. Although the true ownership of the Soul Hunting Forest is somewhat unclear, if a third-party force wants to seize the Soul Hunting Forest, it will inevitably be suppressed from both sides.

However, as a Soul Master, Zhang Wei could also gain the true respect of these soldiers. After checking the warrant, they let the Notting College group in.

Less than a hundred meters into the Soul Hunting Forest, Zhang Wei turned around and looked at everyone, especially at all the students, with a solemn expression, intimidating without anger:

"Listen carefully, we have truly entered the Soul Hunting Forest. It is full of dangers, and powerful soul beasts may appear at any time. What you need to do is to obey the instructions."

"Whatever you see or hear, don't panic, don't run around, and report everything you do. If you leave the team without permission, you will bear the consequences at your own risk!"

Seeing the dean so serious, all the students became nervous and responded loudly:

"Yes!"

Zhang Wei nodded, then looked at the other teachers and said,

"Stand as usual and get ready!"

All teachers should also say:

"yes!"

Then there were sounds of martial spirits possessing him. Su Mo's body swelled, antlers grew on his head, and his hair grew wildly. Three spirit rings, yellow, yellow, and purple, gradually emerged, and he stood at the end of the team.

A female teacher named Fiona, with a staff in her hand and two yellow soul rings emerging, she was an auxiliary soul master and stood among all the students.

A teacher named Gou An, his teeth became sharper, his nails became longer, and his hair grew wildly, like a werewolf, but in fact his martial soul was that of a dog, with two soul rings, one white and one yellow. He would sniff something with his nose and then quickly dodge away.

The other four teachers, whose martial spirits were broadsword, dagger, black panther, and ape respectively, all had a civilian ratio of one white and one yellow, and stood around all the students.

As for Zhang Wei, he did not summon his martial spirit, but he stood in the front of everyone, and it was obvious that he was very confident in his own strength.

Then Zhang Wei waved his hand and shouted in a deep voice:

"Set off!"

Then, everyone from Notting College, led by Zhang Wei, began to explore the Soul Hunting Forest.

However, they did not go deep into the Soul Hunting Forest, but circled around the periphery of the Soul Hunting Forest. A soul warrior without a soul ring is too vulnerable, so the teacher needs to be possessed by a martial soul and be on guard at all times.

Once they enter the depths of the Soul Hunting Forest, they are likely to encounter hundred-year soul beasts, or even thousand-year soul beasts. They are not afraid of hundred-year soul beasts, and can even escape unscathed if they encounter thousand-year soul beasts.

However, there is a great possibility that these students will suffer casualties. There may be casualties among graduates every year, but not in large numbers.

This is not good for the reputation of the academy, so the academy has an unwritten rule that unless it is necessary, such as when students pay extra money or have a very powerful background, under normal circumstances, they will select soul beasts for students from the ten-year soul beasts on the outskirts of the Soul Hunting Forest.

Although there are occasionally hundred-year-old soul beasts in the periphery, their quantity and quality cannot be compared with the soul beasts in the depths of the Soul Hunting Forest.

If a student encounters such a soul beast, he will be blessed. He can obtain a hundred-year soul ring, which is a treatment that even Xiao Chenyu, the son of the city lord, does not have.
