Douluo Continent: Starting with Luo Sanpao, Evolving into the Dragon God!

Chapter 97: The Hunting Tournament Begins with the Second Prince Xue Luochuan and the Third Prince Xue Haicang

In front of the Heaven Dou Royal Hunting Grounds, apart from Emperor Xue Ye...

In front of the seemingly endless Royal Knights stood two other groups of knights riding horned horses.

These are the Second Prince Xue Luochuan and the thirty guest elders he brought, as well as the soul masters who joined his ranks; and the Third Prince Xue Haicang and the thirty guest elders he led, as well as the soul masters who joined his ranks.

After discovering that Xue Qinghe had arrived.

The Second Prince Xue Luochuan and the Third Prince Xue Haicang immediately rode their horned-scaled horses over quickly.

Compared to Xue Qinghe, the Second Prince Xue Luochuan and the Third Prince Xue Haicang have very different personalities and temperaments.

If Xue Qinghe, as a member of the royal family, is gentle and refined, like a gentleman.

So the Second Prince Xue Luochuan's personality is arrogant.

However, his arrogance was not the kind that looked down on everyone; rather, he was very arrogant towards those who lacked ability, but also very respectful and courteous towards those who were capable.

As for the Third Prince Xue Haicang, although he is a little younger, he is straightforward, open-minded, brave and decisive, with the personality of a general.

His dream was to become the Grand General of the Heaven Dou Empire.

When they grow up, they will fight for the Heavenly Empire to conquer the world and expand its territory.

Although the Heaven Dou royal family has a relatively weak martial soul inheritance, it is difficult for them to produce powerful soul masters.

However, the internal education within the royal family is still quite good.

At least in Gu Han's view.

Whether it's the eldest prince Xue Qinghe, the second prince Xue Luochuan, or the third prince Xue Haicang.

Even the Fourth Prince Xue Beng, who is still young and taking his first steps, can be considered a remarkable figure of his time.

As Xue Qinghe rode his horned-scaled horse, he encountered the Second Prince Xue Luochuan and the Third Prince Xue Haicang, who had also ridden over on horseback.

The three princes wore smiles and appeared to be on good terms.

But behind the scenes, a fierce verbal battle was taking place over the Heavenly Dou Royal Family Hunting Tournament.

Finally, Emperor Xueye spoke up, interrupting the verbal exchange between Xue Qinghe and the other two princes, and told them to go back to their respective homes.

He then delivered a speech, announcing the start of the Heavenly Dou Royal Hunting Ground Tournament.

Meanwhile, outside the royal hunting grounds...

Many nobles and ministers from the Heavenly Dou Imperial City also brought their entourages here, ready to watch the spectacle.

In the ancient world of Douluo Continent, where entertainment is scarce, fighting spirits can serve as a form of entertainment.

For the Heavenly Dou Royal Family Hunting Tournament.

This event was a grand gathering where the three princes tore each other apart, showcasing their martial virtues and the power of their subordinates.

In the Heaven Dou Imperial City, the supporters of the three princes, as well as many nobles and ministers who had not yet placed their bets, and the citizens and soul masters who were just watching the spectacle, naturally all came to watch the excitement and enjoy the show.

"Now I declare the Heaven Dou Royal Family Hunting Tournament officially open!"

After the Great Emperor loudly announced the start of the hunting tournament on a snowy night.

Behind him, several royal knights dismounted and opened the gates to the royal hunting grounds with a loud rumble.

"Elder brother, I'll be taking my leave now!"

Upon seeing the gates of the Royal Hunting Grounds open, Xue Luochuan immediately mounted his horned-scale horse, turned around, and addressed Xue Qinghe with a haughty smile.

Then, she looked at Gu Han with a confident smile and asked.

"This must be Brother Gu Han, a top genius who recently joined our Heaven Dou Royal Academy."

"However, as a top genius, Brother Gu Han should make friends with people who are equally outstanding in ability. That would be the most suitable thing for him."

"I will use this hunting tournament to prove that I, Xue Luochuan, am the best!"

"Brother Gu Han, I'll take my leave now!"

After saying that, Xue Luochuan immediately spurred his horned-scaled horse, leading the thirty guest elders he had recruited and the soul masters who had joined his ranks, straight towards the Heaven Dou Royal Hunting Grounds.

"Brother Gu Han, I am Xue Haicang."

"I heard that you enjoy tea, Brother Gu Han. I recently acquired a batch of top-quality Ice Spirit Tea and Emerald Jade Spring Tea."

"We can have tea together sometime and become friends!"

After Xue Luochuan, the Third Prince Xue Haicang also rode his horned-scaled horse over. With a smile on his handsome and heroic face, he finished speaking to Gu Han and then took his leave, leading his retainers and soul masters into the Heaven Dou Royal Hunting Ground.

However, although both Xue Luochuan and Xue Haicang extended olive branches to Gu Han.

However, Xue Qinghe was confident in Gu Han's character and her own personal charm, and her face still wore the same gentle smile.

He even shook his head, jokingly speaking to Gu Han with a hint of teasing in his tone.

"Hehe, Brother Gu Han, my two brothers really don't have much faith in me!"

"However, with Brother Gu Han here, I have a lot of confidence in myself!"

Because they knew that when Gu Han joined the Heaven Dou Royal Academy, he had defeated a Soul Emperor-level teacher with a single punch.

In the Heaven Dou Royal Hunting Grounds, the highest cultivation level of the soul beasts raised by the Heaven Dou royal family is only ten thousand years old.

With Gu Han around, they can basically only encounter ten-thousand-year-old soul beasts whose cultivation level is not too high.

Obtaining the collars representing hunting points from these spirit beasts is not a problem at all.

"Brother Gu Han, let's go!"

After Xue Luochuan and Xue Haicang, Xue Qinghe, along with Gu Han, Qian Renxue, and a group of guest elders and soul masters under his command, rode their horned scale horses at breakneck speed into the Heaven Dou Royal Hunting Grounds.

The Heavenly Dou Royal Hunting Grounds are divided into three areas.

The first area on the outermost edge is the training area.

There aren't many trees here, and there are large open spaces. This is where the knights of the Heavenly Dou Royal Knights train and are stationed.

The second area is the hunting grounds.

The forest area has expanded considerably, but the roads remain clear. Many common wild animals roam freely in the forests on both sides of the road, including lions, tigers, wolves, leopards, deer, bison, and wild sheep.

But further in, you enter the mountains.

This is the Soul Hunting Zone, where the Heavenly Dou Royal Family captures soul beasts from various Soul Hunting Forests and raises them in a free-range manner.

This Heaven Dou Royal Family Hunting Tournament is called a Hunt.

But the animals that can actually be hunted are only the wild animals in the hunting area.

These are tests of the hunting skills of the three princes and their subordinate soul masters.

Each time a wild animal is killed, a special seal can be used to imprint the prey with one's own mark.

The knights of the Royal Knights will then follow up to tally and record the points.

However, the prey in the hunting area has relatively low points.

To get a high score, you need to enter the Soul Hunter Zone.

Those who live in the Soul Hunting Zone are all Soul Beasts.

However, since it is a soul beast, it certainly cannot be hunted indiscriminately.

Otherwise, every royal hunting competition would result in a massacre.

It's not easy to capture soul beasts from the various Soul Hunting Forests and bring them into this Royal Hunting Ground.

At this rate, it seems that not many Royal Hunting Tournaments can be held before there are very few soul beasts left in the Soul Hunting Zone.

Where should the royal family go if they need to hunt souls for low-level soul masters?

Therefore, in the Soul Hunting Zone, unless in mortal danger, one must not kill soul beasts.

As for how to "hunt" a soul beast if you can't kill it, then...

Having held the Heavenly Dou Royal Hunting Tournament for so many years, the Heavenly Dou royal family had naturally long ago devised a solution.

Before the hunting festival began.

In fact, Emperor Xueye sent the soul masters of the Heaven Dou royal family to the Soul Hunting Zone of the Heaven Dou Royal Hunting Grounds.

They placed collars, each representing a different score, on the soul beasts they encountered in the Soul Hunting Zone that possessed corresponding cultivation levels.

Therefore, after entering the Soul Hunting Zone.

As long as you subdue the soul beasts wearing point collars in the Soul Hunting Zone, you can obtain the point collars from them.

Once you're outside, take out the points collar to tally your points.

The hunting results of the three princes have been obtained.
