Chapter 143. Entering the Star Dou Forest's Hybrid Region
The two of them exited the tent at the same time. Huo Yuhao’s eyes were sparkling golden, and his Spirit Eyes’ two soul rings rose up from beneath his feat, projecting his Spiritual Detection towards a certain direction. He could detect more than six hundred meters in a single direction, and his detections were highly accurate.
Xiao Xiao and Wang Dong darted out from the tent. The campfire was lit in between both tents, and it shielded them from the coldness of the night. The flames shone on their faces and flickered with a pale red luster.
Huo Yuhao reported his findings softly, “Eight people – six males and two females. I can’t figure out one male’s cultivation level, and I think he has at least seven rings. There’s a Soul Emperor and four Soul Kings amongst the other five. The two females have about three soul rings each, about the same as us. They’re walking towards us right now.”
Wang Dong asked, “Shall we hide?”
Huo Yuhao shook his head and replied, “No need. They’re definitely not coming here for us, and they’ll be here very soon. The tents and the campfire tracks cannot be erased so quickly, and we’ll raise suspicion instead. We just have to be natural and wait for them to come. I think they’re probably here to hunt soul beats, just like we are.”
Voices could already be heard while they were discussing.
“Eh, there’s a fire here.”
A silhouette appeared before Huo Yuhao and the others before the voice arrived. It was a tall and skinny man, and he was so scrawny that he resembled a bamboo stick. However, he moved with astonishing speed and his gaze landed on Huo Yuhao and the others beside the campfire the moment he appeared. Huo Yuhao and the others stared at him as if they had been startled.
There was no doubt that this tall and skinny man was an agility-type soul master. He took the lead and scouted the path ahead, and he relaxed the moment he realized that Huo Yuhao and the others were children, barely over ten years old. He raised one hand, and a beam of yellow light sparkled in the center of his palm. This light beam surged about five meters into the sky before it transformed into a yellow circle of light that permeated outwards.
