t expanse.He also craves to become stronger!After becoming stronger, standing at the top of the world, confronting countless peak powerhouses!"It's a pity, these are still too far away for me. What I...The royal hunting ground is a vast and independent expanse.

This independent space has mountains and water, just like the outside world.

> Nearly 100,000 talented hunters who participated in the hunt are now all present within the hunting ground.

"Huh"

Su Xin appeared, his eyes immediately sweeping the surroundings. Although he could see that there were some people around him, Long Dao and Qiu Ze who had been standing with him before were nowhere to be seen.

"Everyone, are you all spread out" Su Xin murmured.

Little ones

A majestic voice echoed through the hunting grounds, resounding in every corner.

All the geniuses in the hunting ground listened intently.

"The first phase of hunting, the rules are very simple!"

When you first arrived at the camp and registered your identity, you each received an identification token. What you need to do is try every means possible to kill the people you encounter and seize their tokens!

Five days later, even if the thousand people with the most talismans in their hands pass through

Besides, that identity token also contains a special prohibition that can protect your lives in life-or-death situations. Therefore, you can act freely, even if you kill the opponent, they won't truly die, they will only be eliminated.

"Let's all go wild!"

The grand voice gradually dissipated.

And all the geniuses who found themselves in the hunting ground immediately understood the rules of the hunt.

This is a melee!

A carnage feast gathering nearly 100,000 geniuses!!

"In the past ten thousand years, only a thousand people could stay"

Su Xin narrowed his eyes. The moment he entered the hunting ground, he discovered that he could sense the precise locations of those nearby geniuses through the talisman in his hand.

That is to say, as long as there's someone around him, no matter how sophisticated their concealment methods are, he can detect them immediately.

This resulted in, after five days of fighting, even those who had obtained enough talismans were unable to hide them at all.

"That's what it means to drive us mad, to force us into a desperate struggle," Su Xin muttered under his breath.

...and in that moment, when the rules became clear.

Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!

Through the token, Su Xin immediately sensed several geniuses nearby and they immediately attacked him at extreme speed.

There are four people there, the fastest.

"Are they all coming at me"

"Look, just because I've cultivated to the level of a great cultivator, do you all think I'm a pushover"

Su Xin's eyes turned cold, and the long sword in her hand was instantly drawn.

The first four people to reach Su Xin's vicinity were three men and one woman. One of them, a purple-clad, bewitching young man, stood directly in front of Su Xin.

He held a spear tightly in both hands, his spiritual energy surging around him. A gleam of excitement flashed in his eyes. "Just a mere Huanghai Da Cheng, daring to participate in the Imperial City Hunt If I don't kill you, who will I kill"

In the past ten thousand people, only one thousand remained.

That is to say, killing one person means one less competitor.

Even if someone were to be 'killed', as long as a command talisman exists, they wouldn't truly die. These geniuses naturally wouldn't have the slightest bit of pity.

"Die!"

This purple-clad, alluring young man charged ahead. His war halberd whirled like a hurricane, howling towards Su Xin's position.

Su Xin held a sword in his hand, and with a flick of his wrist, he thrust the long blade forward.

Though it seemed random, the move was infused with sword intent. It instantly jolted the war spear aside, then the long sword, gliding through empty space, swept toward the throat of the purple-clad, alluring young man.

"What" The youth in purple, with an air of mystery, still held a hint of shock in his eyes.

But the restrictions within his token had been activated. A flash of white light surged towards him, enveloping his form and sending him out of the hunting ground, while the token itself drifted in the void.

Su Xin waved his hand and took the talisman.

Just as I finished all of that, the other three's attacks also arrived.

"Get out!"

Su Xin let out a furious roar, his sword transforming into a bolt of lightning.

Phantom Scroll, First Style, Dark Light!

Like a single ray of light in the boundless darkness, the swordsmanship's profound artistic conception completely surpassed the imagination of those three geniuses.

Ding! Ding! Ding!

As three metallic clang sounds echoed, the offensive of the three geniuses was not only immediately broken, but also the weakest among them, a woman, was the first to be slain by Su Xin.

"How is that possible"

"How strong is that"

The two genius survivors, who had miraculously lived through the ordeal, were aghast. Without hesitation, they turned and fled.

Su Xin didn't chase after her, but instead stepped forward and took the woman's token.

"These four people should all have the strength to barely pass the first level of the Dragon Seeking Tower," Su Xin murmured.

To be able to pass the first layer of the Dragon Seeking Tower...is indeed a genius. Under normal circumstances, one person could kill several peak Sea Condensation cultivators at the same time. In a county, he would definitely be the top expert. However, two months ago, Su Xin was only in the early stage of the Sea Condensation realm, and he could pass the first layer of the Dragon Seeking Tower with relative ease.

After two months of training, not only did his cultivation break through to the peak of the Sea Transformation stage, but his swordsmanship and understanding of sword intent also improved significantly.

Now, he is even more confident that he can break into the top ten of this hunting competition rankings.

It's really easy to deal with a genius who only barely passed the first level of the Dragon Tower.

Even with the power of his bloodline, he only activated a small amount.

swordsmanship, and I didn't really get to use it much.

……

Just as Su Xin was lamenting that the strength of these four geniuses was a bit weak, some more geniuses rushed towards him from nearby. These geniuses were initially farther away from Su Xin and didn't arrive at first.

But on their way, they saw that in front of them, four Heaven-Sea Peak geniuses were going together to kill a Heaven-Sea Great Accomplishment cultivator. As a result, in just an instant, two of the four Heaven-Sea Peak geniuses died, and the other two frantically fled away...

These suddenly arrived geniuses immediately stopped their steps.

"This is a powerful sea of transformations, isn't it"

"Four people surrounded them, instantly killing two. Such strength is definitely at the level of the second floor or above of the Chi Long Tower!"

"Hurry up and leave!"

Without hesitation, these geniuses who had witnessed Su Xin's strength one by one turned around and fled, afraid that Su Xin would catch up and deal with them.

Inside the Royal Hunting Ground, battles rage everywhere due to the rules of the first stage hunt.

Nearly 100,000 talented hunters went into a frenzy, fighting and killing each other to obtain the tokens from one another.

And as the fighting intensified, a large number of prodigies were eliminated and sent out of the hunting ground.

……

Outside the hunting ground, on that vast plain, one genius after another was sent out of the spatial passage.

"Kang Jing, you were eliminated too So soon"

A group of talented individuals who were once from Yongning County but have since been eliminated gathered together.

“There’s no way, although my strength is a little stronger than yours, I only barely reach the level of the first floor of the Dragon Searching Tower. Among all the talented hunters in this hunt, I am still at the bottom. Just now on the hunting ground, as soon as I understood the rules, a genius appeared in front of me and killed me with just two moves.”

That person must have been a top genius who cleared the second level of the Dragon Searching Tower. I had no power to resist him at all.

Kang Jing's face turned bitter.

Before that, he had still wanted to show off his skills on this hunt, but as soon as he understood the rules, he was 'killed' and eliminated.

In one corner of the plain.

"Chu brother, how did you get eliminated right at the start With your skill, you could have stayed on the hunting ground for a while longer, killed some geniuses, and snatched a few order talismans!" A genius who had just been eliminated looked at the somewhat dazed purple-clothed, devilishly charming young man in front of him.

After half a while, this purple-clad, bewitching young man came to his senses and replied: "Brother Ling, I'm afraid you'll laugh at me. In the hunting ground, I met a cultivator who had reached the peak of the Sea Condensation stage. I thought I could easily defeat him, snatch a talisman from him for nothing, but who knew that this Sea Condensation cultivator was just an empty shell and killed me."

"One turns the sea into land, one kills you by looking at your face" The words of the purple-clad, devilishly handsome young man shocked several geniuses from his own county.

"I didn't expect it to turn out like this," the purple-clad, demonic young man chuckled wryly.

As time goes by, more and more talented people are being eliminated.

In just half a day, the nearly 100,000 talented individuals who entered the competition were already reduced by half.

Soon, a day of killing was over.

As night fell, the talented hunters in the hunting grounds tacitly chose to cease their pursuit and rest. After all, they too needed time to recuperate their energy and replenish their food.

Not until the next morning did the killing resume.

……

In the hunting ground.

Wow!

The sword light flashed, like a spirit snake darting directly along the opponent's weapon, slashing towards their neck.

The genius' eyes still held shock, but the white light had already enveloped his form.

"The fourteenth one!"

Su Xiping calmly watched as the genius was sent out of the hunting ground.

In terms of strength, this genius is already at a level close to the second floor of the Dragon Searching Tower. Unfortunately, there's still no room for him to struggle in front of him.

And this is already the fourteenth talented person who has been killed during the hunt for elimination.

Of course, he personally eliminated fourteen genius players, but he already had over thirty talismans.

After all, some of these geniuses had also killed and eliminated other geniuses, obtaining their talismans. When those geniuses were killed by Su Xin, the talismans were all left behind.

"After a day of carnage, the geniuses I encountered were becoming fewer and fewer. After I had slain the thirteenth genius, it took me a whole post-meridian hour before I met this fourteenth genius, Su Xin," murmured.

He also knew that at the beginning, nearly 100,000 prodigies appeared in the hunting ground at the same time. With so many prodigies scattered around, it was naturally extremely dense.

So the initial melee was the most intense and frenzied.

As time goes by, more and more geniuses are eliminated from the competition. Fewer and fewer geniuses remain in the field, so the probability of encountering one naturally decreases.

However, being able to survive a whole day of fighting and remain on this hunting ground, they must all be masters. The talismans in their hands are definitely numerous. Killing one of them is equivalent to killing several talented geniuses before. Su Xin thought inwardly.

For example, the fourteenth genius who was just killed by him left a full eight talismans.

……

In the middle of the day, the sun beat down fiercely, baking the earth.

Su Xin walked alone, sword in hand, through a quiet forest.

"Huh"

Suddenly, Su Xin's expression shifted. Through the command seal, he could sense that three geniuses had appeared near him at the same time.

And the four geniuses also obviously discovered him through the summoning talisman, and immediately rushed towards his direction at high speed.

"Three people acting together, working as a team" Su Xin wasn't surprised either.

After all, this first stage of the hunt left only a thousand people.

Moreover, due to the rules, this hunt is almost devoid of luck. To pass through this first stage, you have to rely on your strength to kill other geniuses and seize their tokens.

Those at the very top, such as Xia Mang, Duan Yunfeng, and Tu San, could easily kill one genius after another with their own strength and obtain plenty of talismans.

But those whose strength is slightly weaker, who cannot pass this first hunting stage alone, can only join forces.

In just a moment, the three geniuses appeared before Su Xin.

"Just becoming a sea of transformation"

"Through the talisman, he should have already sensed our arrival of three. He didn't even try to escape"

Three figures stood side by side before Su Xin.

He looked at Su Xin's eyes, as if he were looking at a lamb to be slaughtered.
