Three days later, a large group of more than 1,300 people set off from the royal hunting grounds.

Perhaps because Tang Hao made a big fuss during the qualifiers, to be on the safe side, in addition to the fifteen participating college teams that participated in the qualifying rounds, even the Royal Fighting Team, which was guaranteed a spot in the finals, was included in the team.

Furthermore, not only Crown Prince Xue Qinghe, but also Ning Fengzhi, Chen Xin, and Dugu Bo were in the group.

Including Huo Lie, Mu Xiyue, and Shui Yanyu, the team has a total of five nine-ring titled Douluo, plus Ning Fengzhi, the number one support-type Soul Master in the world, so the safety level can be said to be at its maximum.

Wuhun City is located in the central part of the continent, about a twenty-day journey away. In order to allow the contestants to rest better, the Heaven Dou Empire specially arranged some giant luxury carriages that utilized some soul guidance technology, specifically for the contestants to ride and rest.

Although the Douluo Continent in the current era is a wasteland of soul guidance technology, some basic soul guidance technologies still exist, such as soul guidance microphones, soul guidance scenery, soul guidance timers, etc., which have a certain level of soul guidance technology content.

Well, it's worth mentioning that, just like in the original story, Yu Xiaogang "disappeared." The day after the qualifying rounds ended, he hurriedly boarded a carriage and headed south along the official road.

As for the purpose? Needless to say, it was to go to the Pope's Palace in Wuhun City and "beg" his former first love, Bibi Dong, to spare his disciple in a very forceful tone.

Inside the giant carriage carrying the Blazing Academy team.

After concluding their meeting with Xue Qinghe, Ning Fengzhi, Chen Xin, Dugu Bo, and Shui Yanyu, and having devised a plan for dealing with any unforeseen circumstances, Huo Lie and Mu Xiyue returned to the carriage.

After looking around and not seeing Mu Yang, the team captain, Huo Lie's face darkened. He then said to Huo Wu, "Xiao Wu, go and call Xiao Yang back."

Huo Lie knew that with Mu Yang and other exceptionally talented geniuses in the group, the journey to Wuhun City would likely not be peaceful, given that the Heavenly Dou Wuhun Temple had already done something similar once.

With Tang Hao's son, Tang San, also in the group, the probability of something going wrong along the way undoubtedly increases to 100%.

Aside from the mastermind behind it all, no one can say for sure when this trouble will occur. To be on the safe side, Huo Lie doesn't want Mu Yang out of his sight, lest someone take advantage of the situation.

Before Huo Wu could even nod in agreement, Huo Lie finished speaking, and before Huo Wu could even reply, Huo Wushuang, who was sitting inside the carriage, spoke up: "Dad, isn't this a bit inappropriate?"

Upon hearing this, Huo Lie was stunned, not understanding what his son meant.

"Dad, you know Xiaoyang can be really annoying sometimes. If you ask Xiaowu to call him back, he'll definitely bring Bing'er with him. Then we'll be eating dog food (a Chinese slang term for witnessing public displays of affection)!"

Huo Wushuang said with a serious expression.

Normally it's fine; when his younger cousin and his fiancée are showing off their love, he can just ignore it and not get bothered. But the space inside the carriage is limited, and there are no partitions. Traveling by carriage is already a bit boring, and if he gets fed dog food all over his mouth on top of that, ugh, he can't live like this!

"roll--"

Huo Lie glared at Huo Wushuang with annoyance.

How dare you say that?

The Tianshui team is all girls, and they all live close by. Now you're talking about being fed dog food (a Chinese slang term for witnessing public displays of affection), but why don't you take the initiative to chat with those girls?

Fortunately, his eldest son is quite talented and hasn't gone astray. He'll definitely have girls chasing after him in the future. Otherwise, Huo Lie would be worried that Huo Wushuang would be a bachelor for life.

Ten days passed quickly. The journey was peaceful, with no ambushes or bandits blocking the way. Half of the journey to Wuhun City had already been completed.

Bandit: This mountain is mine, these trees are mine, if you want to pass this way, gentlemen, please take your time! (bows) (Can't mess with me, can't mess with me~)

A thousand knights of the Royal Knights served as escorts, making the procession second only to the emperor's imperial procession. Wherever they went, every town received them in the finest manner.

It was precisely because the towns along the way gave them the green light and provided supplies that the size of the participating teams would have to be at least double just to ensure the logistics of these thousand royal knights, without relying on a large number of large storage soul tools to store the supplies.

Similarly, it was precisely because the royal knights' mounts were not ordinary warhorses that it would have been absolutely impossible for them to carry fully armed knights on a twenty-day journey.

Inside the carriage of the Tianshui Academy team, there were only two people: Shui Bing'er was meditating and cultivating, while Mu Yang sat beside her to protect her.

After a while, the aura emanating from Shui Bing'er suddenly surged, and she advanced to level 60 Quasi-Soul Emperor.

Before long, after calming down the fluctuations of soul power emanating from her body, Shui Bing'er stopped cultivating and opened her beautiful ice-blue eyes.

"Bing'er, congratulations on getting ahead of me again."

Mu Yang said with a smile.

An eighteen-year-old Soul Emperor with six rings, wow, impressive!

"Now is the time. You'll definitely reach level 70 before me."

Shui Bing'er shook her head with a hint of regret.

At first, she planned to raise Mu Yang as her future husband.

Unexpectedly, this guy also had a second martial soul, and his cultivation speed was advancing by leaps and bounds, as if he had been injected with chicken blood.

Compared to Mu Yang, due to her slightly older age, she had a several-level advantage, and the Love-Sickness Heartbreak Red she consumed almost directly increased her soul power by one level, while the immortal herbs Mu Yang consumed did not seem to directly increase her soul power level.

With the advantage of starting first and the advantage of the immortal herb, she had at least a 15-level advantage. However, as the years have passed, Mu Yang has narrowed this gap at an extremely fast pace. Before their soul power levels reached 60, their soul power levels were now the same.

If things continue like this, Shui Bing'er can foresee that the only time she will be able to surpass Mu Yang in terms of soul power level is now. Before long, she will go from being the one being chased to the one chasing.

Fortunately, this isn't just anyone. Since the "Queen and her little puppy" plan failed, the plan has been changed to "becoming a gentle and virtuous wife," which is also acceptable.

After thinking for a moment, Mu Yang said, "Bing'er, we're only about ten days away from Wuhun City now. Let's go hunting for souls after the Soul Master Competition."

The finals schedule isn't very long, but the return date for the Soul Hunter event is uncertain. If you're unlucky, it's normal to be delayed by a month or two. If you go to the Soul Hunter event now, you'll most likely miss the later finals.

Moreover, the finals will be held in Wuhun City. If Shui Bing'er advances to the sixth-ring Soul Emperor, it will undoubtedly be too high-profile.

It's only a month or two at most, and during this time, you can continue to accumulate soul power, so it won't have much of an impact.

"Okay, we'll go after the match."

Shui Bing'er nodded. (End of Chapter)
