"Little brother, is the target you shot here?" Manager Liu pointed to a small piece of yellow weed near the base of the wall, widened his eyes and searched carefully, but he never found the target Meng Xiang said.

Meng Xiang did not explain much, stretched out his feet to push the weed away, pointed at something that was the size of a fist and said, "Isn't this the case?"

Manager Liu leaned closer and looked again and finally found out what Meng Xiang was targeting. It was actually a mouse. However, due to a huge hole in his body, it almost completely deformed, and he didn't see it at first.

Forcefully suppressed the hiccups in his stomach, and Zhangguan Liu smiled and said, "Little brother, you are indeed a sharp shot." Although he did not see the tiger-toothed arrow shot out by Meng Xiang, the trauma on the mouse was enough to prove everything.

After saying that, Manager Liu ordered his men to deal with the dead rat, and then walked back with Meng Xiang and Yan Shi, as if he was unwilling to take a look. The rat that was fuzzy and could hardly see it.

Walking back to the place where the archery was shooting, Manager Liu subconsciously looked at the target in the distance, and suddenly showed a look of surprise on his face, as if he had seen something incredible.

Originally, when Manager Liu found that Meng Xiang shot two hundred feet away and was a mouse hidden in the grass, he had already admired his archery skills very much. At such a long distance, ordinary people could not see such a small target, let alone accurately shot it.

He was not a person who had seen the world, so he was naturally very clear about the difficulty, but he found that he still underestimated Meng Xiang's archery skills far.

When he was looking at the previous targets, he discovered that the mouse that was shot was behind the targets, and his men had not found any broken targets before, which means that the tiger-toothed arrow shot by Meng Xiang bypassed the targets.

Although it is quite difficult to change the flight trajectory of the shot arrow, ordinary people with superb archery skills can do it, but they are far from comparable to Meng Xiang, and they are not even comparable at all.

Meng Xiang used a tiger bow that required 10,000 kilograms of strength to pull. Most people who can shoot arrows know that the greater the bow power, the faster the arrows fly, and the faster the arrows fly, the harder it is to change the flight trajectory. The speed of the tiger-toothed arrows shot with the tiger bow is not comparable to the speed of the arrows shot by ordinary bows, not to mention that the target is still two hundred feet away.

Manager Liu's eyes at Meng Xiang had changed. If he had known that he was a tiger soldier before, and when he saw that ordinary people saw treasures, his eyes were now that he was a huge mountain of gold by the mistress.

Seeing the change in Manager Liu's expression, Meng Xiang laughed in his heart: After all, this Liu Futong still has some eyesight and has not wasted my performance.

Manager Liu's eyes turned, and he pretended to be careless and asked, "Little brother, don't you know if this tiger bow is easy to use?"

"Not bad, it's easy to use."

"That's good. The so-called sword is matched with a hero. Since this tiger bow matches the little brother, you might as well buy it. The little brother has this tiger bow, which is like a tiger's wings. I believe that it won't take long before the seat of the No. 1 hunter in Maple Town should be the one who sits on the seat of the first hunter in Maple Tree Town."

"Shopkeeper Liu, you have praised me. I am just a newcomer, how can I compare with those hunting masters? I am still young and have a lot to learn." Although Meng Xiang was modest, he showed obvious confidence in his expression. Obviously, he agreed with Liu's words.

"Little brother, being modest is a good thing, but being too modest will inevitably make people feel a little weak." Manager Liu smiled, "Little brother, it is also a fate that you and me can meet today. So, I will give you a 20% discount on this tiger bow. It used to be worth 5,000 taels, but now it only costs you 4,000 taels. In addition, my account will also give you a hundred tiger-toothed arrows. Little brother, what do you think?"

"This...this..." Meng Xiang showed a embarrassed expression, "Shopkeeper Liu, tell you the truth. I like this tiger bow very much, but it is too expensive and I can't afford it."

As he said that, he pushed the tiger bow in front of Manager Liu, but the reluctance on his face could be seen as long as he was not a blind man.

"So that's the case." Manager Liu nodded, "Four thousand silver is indeed not a small number, but if my little brother really likes it, I can give you another 500 taels, but it won't work any lower. As the saying goes, in business, 3500 taels are already the cost price of this tiger bow. Our Lianfeng can not make money, but we cannot sell it at a loss."

Meng Xiang smiled bitterly: "Thank you for your kindness, I still can't afford it." Yiyi looked at the tiger bow reluctantly, stood up suddenly, and strode outside.

"Wait a minute. Little brother, wait a minute." It was the turn of Manager Liu to be anxious. "Little brother, go slowly. If you really like this tiger bow, we can use other methods to solve the problem."

"Oh?" Meng Xiang turned around suddenly, his eyes lit up, "Shopkeeper Liu, what other method are you talking about?"

"This is the thing. We, Lianfeng, are preparing to do a big thing, but we lack good hands... Alas, this matter is a bit complicated, so we went to the living room to drink tea while talking."

Manager Liu took Meng Xiang and Yan Shi away from the archery field and came to a spacious living room. When they came in, all kinds of desserts and fragrant tea had been placed on the table.

Next, Manager Liu drank tea and told Meng Xiang and Yan Shi about the matter. It is now winter, and there is still about a month left, and there will be a cold wave. At that time, the town will be sealed and will not open until February of the next year.

In order to store food for winter and to test whether the skills of hunters in the town have improved this year, a hunting competition will be held according to the customs. All adult hunters in the town can participate, and those who get the top three will also receive a grand prize awarded by the town/government.

As a major force in Fengshu Town, Lianfeng will naturally send people to participate. Unfortunately, although their weapons are good, they are not strong enough and have not won a good ranking in recent years. What's worse is that the other major forces in the town, such as the town guards, the security brigade and the Hunter Alliance...their performance is better than theirs, which makes them very passive.

With memories of past lives, Meng Xiang naturally understood that hunting competitions are not just about examining the skills of hunters, but also reflect the strength level among major forces to a certain extent. If the strength is strong, the entire town will have greater voice and will naturally gain more power and benefits.

Participating in the hunting team of Lianfeng is actually the fundamental purpose of Meng Xiang coming to Lianfeng, and this is also the main reason why he wants to make such a big noise on Lianfeng.

In fact, before Meng Xiang entered Fengshu Town, he was already planning this matter. When he entered Fengshu Town, he deliberately carried the blood-maned wolf, and deliberately used superb knife skills to carve the blood-maned wolf stone sculptures in front of the fat guards and the townsmen who were watching the fun. In fact, they were all for the purpose of participating in the Feng Refining Hunting Team.

As Meng Xiang and Yan Shi, even if their abilities are strong, they cannot participate in the competition in their personal name without obtaining the identity certificate of Fengshu Town, so he wanted to do everything possible to join the hunting team of Lianfeng. With the guarantee of Lianfeng, they can participate in the hunting competition, show their strengths and get a good ranking.

However, getting a good ranking in the Maple Town Hunting Competition is far from Meng Xiang's ultimate goal. He has memories of his previous life. He knows that in addition to Maple Town, he will hold a hunting competition this year, all the small tree villages and tree towns within a radius of thousands of miles will also hold a larger hunting competition.

Meng Xiang’s real goal is to get a good ranking in the hunting competition. In addition to the top ten in the hunting competition, they can get a pretty generous reward, once he and Yan Shi get a good ranking in Maple Town, they can accumulate huge contributions to Maple Town. At that time, they will have no problem applying for Maple Town identity certificate.

With memories of his previous life, he is very clear about what an identity proof means to a person. The higher the identity proof, the more valuable it is. Many people suffer, have suffered, have rolled their eyes, and even have their lives for an ID card.

He and Yan Shi are people who want to do great things, so they cannot stay in Maple Town all the time. Even the place where his life in his previous life ended, Tiemu City, was not their end. They had to move towards a larger place, to be precise, towards the center of the tree world.

In his previous life, Meng Xiang once found a book about the situation of the tree world in a small shop selling old books. After reading it, he learned a fact that shocked him: the tree world is probably in a huge disc shape, and Maple Tree Town and even Tiemu City are on the edge of this disc.

The more you are on the edge of the tree world, the scarce the resources, and the fewer all kinds of good things. Just like some good things that Maple Town thinks are valuable, they will become very ordinary or even worthless when put in Tiemu City. The good things in Tiemu City will encounter the same fate when placed in cities closer to the core of the tree world than it is. Therefore, those with ability will move towards the core of the tree world, where there are more opportunities and greater room for improvement.

Naturally, high returns also represent high risks. Although Maple Town lacks resources, its safety is relatively good. Although there are various natural and animal disasters, most people can basically survive smoothly.

Most of the surrounding wild beasts are wild beasts, with only a very small number of ferocious beasts, and they are all kings of various beasts. Generally speaking, they are basically unlikely to encounter them. Even ordinary hunters will not be too dangerous.

Around Tiemu City, besides beasts, ferocious beasts are no longer rare. Hunters often encounter them when they go out to hunt, and may even encounter monsters who know magic. The danger of hunting is many times higher than that of Maple Tree Town.

The only difference in this situation is that one thing is the spiritual energy that has a huge impact on all things in the world, especially living objects. The closer we get to the core of the tree world, the higher the content of spiritual energy. And when nourished by spiritual energy, various creatures will evolve, thus becoming more powerful.

Although Meng Xiang and Yan Xi have had the true qi and have surpassed the first step in the realm of cultivating immortals - the body refining stage, and reached the second step in the realm of cultivating immortals - the Qi Refining stage, they have not yet broken through the Qi Refining stage and reached the third step in the realm of cultivating immortals - the Dao Seed stage, and cannot absorb spiritual energy through the Dao Seed, so there is no requirement for the spiritual energy content in their environment.

However, once they reach the Taoist stage, they need to absorb spiritual energy, convert spiritual energy into Taoist qi, and then advance to a higher level through the accumulation of Taoist qi.

At that time, they will put forward high requirements for the spiritual energy content in the surrounding environment. Because the spiritual energy content is high, they will absorb it more easily, absorb more amounts, and convert it into more Taoist qi. Only with more Taoist qi can they be promoted to a higher level faster.

Although the life of immortal cultivators is much longer than that of ordinary people, immortal cultivators are in opposition to the laws of nature. Every step forward will be difficult and they will encounter various tests and hardships. Therefore, they need to move to a higher level as quickly as possible to prevent accidents. This makes them desperately want to get closer to the core of the tree world, which leads to the closer they get to the core of the tree world, the more fierce the competition and the more dangerous it is.
