Chapter 8 Three Months, Ready to Go
“Human life is like a white horse passing through a crack in the sky; it is so fleeting.” - Zhuangzi: Journey to the North

----------

Time flies so fast, and three months have passed in the blink of an eye.

Just as Wu Tong repeated his daily routine of going between dormitory, classroom, library and cafeteria, and occasionally going out to collect his share of the stall, time slipped away quietly.

A lot of things happened during these three months.

Tang San and Xiao Wu had already obtained spirit rings and became one-ring spirit masters in the first month.

Of course, Wu Tong also heard about the cafeteria conflict and the fight in the back mountain, but he did not get involved. After all, with Wu Tong's work and rest schedule, it was difficult for him to have free time to do extra things, and he did not want to get involved in such boring things.

Now, Xiao Wu has become the big sister of the entire academy, and Tang San has also begun a busy life of studying, forging, and practicing.

And there is still no clue about the Golden Fox with the Mind's Eye that Wu Tong needs.

However, two guns had already been made.

M500 revolver.

It is known as the most powerful pistol in the world and is also very famous in the pistol world. Its fame comes from its large caliber. The muzzle has a caliber of 0.50 inches, or 12.7 mm, and it fires 50 Magnum high-powered pistol bullets. Because the bullets are too large, the general revolver chamber can hold six rounds, but this gun can only hold five!

Every bullet was made by Wu Tong himself through the mixing of gunpowder, grinding and stamping. Since they were made manually, the output was not high. It took three months to produce only 5,000 bullets. However, every bullet could directly kill a five-ring Soul King, injure a six-ring Soul Emperor, and even severely damage an eight-ring Soul Douluo in a sneak attack.

After all, the kinetic energy of the bullet fired by the M500 revolver is twice that of the famous .50 caliber "Desert Eagle"! It has reached the kinetic energy of a high-powered rifle bullet! The killing power can be described as terrifying, and it is not an exaggeration to call it a "hand cannon".

But once a Titled Douluo reaches the Nine Rings, this gun cannot deal with him. After all, every Titled Douluo can be said to be a superman. Low-level spirit masters cannot capture their body movements at all, let alone lock on to attack.

"Huh, it's been three months. It should be about time. After all, the Soul Hunting Forest is not that big. A blanket search should be able to find it."

In a forest outside the city of Nottingham, Wu Tong stood in the middle of a messy grove, surrounded by trees that were shattered and pierced by bullets, and there were some holes and bottle fragments on the ground.

Wu Tong put the two guns covered with smoke in his hands back into the holsters on his legs, his eyes were dull and he muttered to himself.

After all, Wu Tong had spent some time every day practicing his marksmanship in the past three months. With the help of the terrifying calculation power of his brain spirit, Wu Tong was able to accurately shoot the wings of a fly that was resting on a branch a hundred meters away without hurting the fly itself. The scene in front of him was just a small training exercise that Wu Tong conducted to maintain his shooting accuracy. It was just that the bullets wasted in the process really made him feel a little painful.

After all, after purchasing the supplies, Wu Tong only had a few thousand gold soul coins left, which he still needed to hire a senior soul hunting team. Wu Tong was really down and out now.

After packing up, Wu Tong returned to Notting College. He was about to go to the base to inquire about the news of the soul beasts, but he didn't expect that as soon as he returned to the college gate, a man in black came towards him.

"You must be Brother Wu Tong, right? We have some news about the soul beast you asked us to find. The trace of the Heart-Eye Golden Fox once appeared in the east of the Soul Hunting Forest. This is a rough map. If you want to hunt souls, you'd better go as soon as possible. After all, it may not be there after a while."

The man in black handed a map to Wu Tong and then turned and left.

Wu Tong glanced at the map, suppressed his ecstasy, thanked the man in black, and put it away. He set out again, but the direction he was heading to was the principal's office.

dong dong dong...

There was a knock on the door, and Principal Charles inside was puzzled. Why did someone come to see him during the holidays?

"come in."

After hearing Principal Charles' permission, Wu Tong pushed open the office door and walked in.

"Principal Charles, I'm Wu Tong, a freshman who just enrolled this year. I'd like to ask for leave to go hunt soul beasts."

After Wu Tong entered the room, he didn't say much nonsense, but went straight to the point.

"Hmm? Wu Tong, is that you? You are finally ready to get the spirit ring. I agree and will approve your leave immediately. Do you need a school instructor to take you on this soul hunting trip?"

Charles adjusted his glasses and felt relieved when he looked at Wu Tong, who had become much stronger than when he first entered school. Although he only had a useless martial soul, he was one of only three geniuses in the whole school with innate full soul power.

Charles has also been paying attention to Wu Tong. Seeing that he has not gone hunting for spirit rings for three months and has been exercising, reading books, and wasting his talent, he feels a little disappointed with him. After all, in Douluo Continent, the strong are respected, and powerful military force is what people in this world value.

Charles was very pleased that Wu Tong came to him today to ask for leave. After all, although Wu Tong was just a useless martial soul, it was a teacher's most simple wish to hope that students would grow and become excellent, so Charles was ready to do his best to help Wu Tong.

"Principal Charles, no need. I still have some savings. I don't want anything to go wrong with my first soul ring, so I plan to recruit a soul hunting team to help me hunt souls. After all, they are more familiar with the Soul Hunting Forest."

Wu Tong directly rejected Charles' proposal. He once thought about asking school teachers to help him hunt souls, but after thinking about it carefully, he decided to hire a soul hunting team.

The reason is very simple. First of all, the teachers in the school definitely don't know as much about the Soul Hunting Forest as the professional Soul Hunting Team. Secondly, the location of the Heart Eye Golden Fox that Wu Tong needs is deep in the Soul Hunting Forest. Most of these teachers are Great Soul Masters or Soul Venerables, and they don't have the ability to take Wu Tong deep into the Soul Hunting Forest. Finally, Wu Tong doesn't want to reveal some of his secrets, so he doesn't want to go with people he's familiar with.

On the contrary, the Soul Hunting Team not only has extremely rich hunting experience, but also has high cultivation methods. Wu Tong does not want to make any mistakes. After all, if he fails this time, he does not know when he will find the Heart Eye Golden Fox next time. So in order to solve the problem once and for all, Wu Tong is ready to spend thousands of gold soul coins to hire a Soul King-level Soul Hunting Team to ensure the success rate of this soul hunting.

Several thousand gold soul coins are not a small amount. Even though Wu Tong earned tens of thousands of gold soul coins in just three months, this was only because his business was too booming and there were many people buying from him.

After all, even the Soul Saint teachers of Shrek Academy would worry about tens of thousands of gold soul coins. This shows that the purchasing power of gold soul coins in Douluo Continent is still very strong.

"Well, you have always been a steady child. I believe you have your own judgment. In addition, the Soul Hunting Team is indeed more professional. Then I won't say much. I wish you can successfully obtain the soul ring and become a soul master."

After hearing Wu Tong's reason, Charles pondered for a while and then felt relieved.

Wu Tong listened to Charles' words and bowed: "Don't worry, Principal Charles, I will definitely succeed."

Then he took the note approved by Charles and left the principal's office.
