Three figures on horseback sped down the road at breakneck speed.
They were Gu Yi, Qing Lin, and Xiao Wu, heading for the Star Dou Great Forest.
As for Ning Rongrong and Zhu Zhuqing, they had long since been left far behind.
After all, the Crimson Blood Steed's speed was incomparable to the horses of Douluo Continent.
In less than half a day, the three rode their Crimson Blood Steeds from Suotuo City, crossing several hundred li to reach the edge of the Star Dou Great Forest.
"Xiao Yi, leave obtaining your fifth Soul Ring to me this time!" Xiao Wu said excitedly as she looked at the Star Dou Great Forest so close before them.
"This is my home turf! I'll have Da Ming and Er Ming catch whatever Soul Beast you want for you!"
Given Xiao Wu's identity and personality, she had originally been unwilling to watch others kill Soul Beasts.
But those were the rules of the Soul Ring System. To advance one's cultivation, one had to absorb Soul Rings.
This was an irreconcilable conflict between Soul Masters and Soul Beasts.
Besides, this was a world where the strong preyed upon the weak. Even without Soul Masters hunting Soul Beasts, Soul Beasts would still slaughter and devour one another.
Just as sheep ate grass and wolves ate sheep, it was simply their nature.
No one knew how many Soul Beasts died in the Star Dou Great Forest every day because of this.
As a Soft Bone Rabbit, Xiao Wu understood this deeply. On her path to a Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast, she had endured countless pursuits from predators.
What was more, she had now taken human form. Once her cultivation reached Rank Seventy, she too would need to hunt and absorb Soul Rings in order to break through.
