"Master Qin, there are traces of Spirit Beasts ahead!"
A burly man ran over to report to Qin Shaofeng. This man was Fu'an Village's strongest hunter, powerfully built and highly experienced in hunting.
"Are they Rankless?" Qin Shaofeng asked.
"Yes, but..." The burly man hesitated.

There were three Spirit Beasts here, even if they were only Rankless Spirit Beasts.
With the strength of their dozen or so
