Today, Zhuge Zhi, the town mayor of Tianxin Town and a direct descendant of Grandmaster Tianxin, would open the Hunter Selection Ground for all fifteen-year-old youths in the town. Of course, only on this day could a direct descendant of Grandmaster Tianxin open the Hunter Selection Ground.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Hunter Selection Ground opened every year at midnight. The reveling crowd eagerly awaited this moment, growing especially excited as midnight approached, making the scene even more lively. Just as the people were celebrating, Mayor Zhuge Zhi walked into the center of the crowd, extended both hands forward, and waved them downward several times. Instantly, the revelers fell silent, for they all knew the most crucial moment of the day had arrived.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Once everyone had quieted down, Zhuge Zhi slowly spoke, \"Everyone knows what day this is, so I will not say much. However, there is one most important matter today: opening the Hunter Selection Ground. Anyone who has turned fifteen today may enter the Hunter Selection Ground to undergo the Hunter Selection. Those who pass the selection may proceed to Rock City to take the Hunter Examination. If they pass the examination, they can become true Hunters. However, I must remind you that being a Hunter is dangerous; you will face life-threatening peril at any moment. All sorts of people exist among Hunters. Therefore, if you become Hunters, you must be cautious and maintain a healthy mindset. Do not be like those other Hunters who commit murder, arson, and every kind of evil. Well, even if I speak of the dangers of being a Hunter now, you will not truly feel them. Only when you actually become Hunters and experience it yourselves will you understand, and only then will you know what kind of person you wish to be. Now, let me speak about the Hunter Selection Ground. You should have all heard of it. The selection within the Hunter Selection Ground is also fraught with danger. Moreover, the rules of the Hunter Selection Ground change every year, and so do the corresponding dangers. However, there is one constant: no tools are allowed when entering the Selection Ground. Therefore, you must all prepare yourselves mentally. Enough idle talk. I will now open the Hunter Selection Ground. Those who wish to undergo the Hunter Selection may enter once I have opened it.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Having spoken, Zhuge Zhi pulled a jade tablet from his robes. Carved upon the tablet was a serpent-like creature, yet it did not quite resemble a snake. Its head was neither the inverted triangle nor the round shape typical of a snake; instead, it was a ferocious beast head with its mouth gaping forward, as if ready to devour anyone. After taking out the jade tablet, Zhuge Zhi extended it forward. At that moment, the tablet suddenly emitted a seven-colored radiance, and a creature identical to the one on the tablet flew out from it. It flew forward angrily, opening its mouth and roaring continuously, \"Hou! Hou! Hou!\" as if venting its inner dissatisfaction. Yet it never flew into the sky; something within the jade tablet seemed to restrain it, forcing it to hover mid-air, roaring incessantly. Meanwhile, before Zhuge Zhi, a rotating luminous body appeared, resembling a nebula. This nebula, initially composed of faint points of light, gradually grew brighter. As this nebula-like luminous body expanded, it eventually stabilized and slowly took on the form of something like a door. The people of Tianxin Town were no strangers to this object; they called it the \"Gate of Space.\" According to those from generation to generation who had crossed through this Gate of Space, passing through it led to another world, another realm of space. This Gate of Space served as the connecting door between their world and that other space.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just as the Gate of Space formed and stabilized, Zhuge Zhi shouted loudly to the surrounding crowd, \"Now is the time; hurry and enter!\" At once, twenty-three young men swiftly stepped out from the crowd, Zhuge Tianxin among them. These twenty-three youths entered the Gate of Space in an orderly fashion and vanished from everyone's sight. Subsequently, the Gate of Space slowly shrank, its light gradually dimming, until it contracted into a single point of radiance that drifted upward into the sky, finally hanging there like a star, indistinguishable from any other. Had the people of Tianxin Town not witnessed the entire process—the Gate of Space gradually shrinking and moving to this position in the sky—they would never have known which point of light was actually the Gate of Space.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After the shrunken Gate of Space ceased its movement, the people of Tianxin Town resumed their celebration. However, some faces bore no expression of joy; instead, they revealed worry. Some women even sobbed softly, while a man beside each whispered words of comfort. These were the parents whose children had entered the Gate of Space to participate in the selection. They knew that death frequently occurred within the Gate of Space, a lesson passed down through generations of Tianxin Town people at the cost of their own lives. Thus, they were deeply worried. Yet this was an inevitable process, their children's own choice, which they could not prevent. Furthermore, this was for the development and growth of Tianxin Town. Currently, every Hunter in Tianxin Town had become one by passing the Hunter Selection, traveling to Rock Town, and succeeding in the Hunter Assessment. Some had even left Rock Town to become even more powerful Hunters, occasionally bringing back items from the outside world for the people of Tianxin Town. Most of these items were things those Hunters had used, or even things the townspeople had never seen or heard of, filling them with curiosity about the outside world. Unfortunately, no one yet possessed the ability to lead the people of Tianxin Town out to the outside world. Therefore, the people of Tianxin Town attached great importance to the annual Hunter Selection at this time. They hoped that among those who passed the Hunter Selection, someone with great power would emerge, someone who could lead them out to see the outside world and also return to their clans located out there.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Whether they were the celebrating masses or the few worried about their children, and regardless of their willingness, the fact remained that the twenty-three youths had already entered; this could not be changed. All that remained for them was to wait, to wait for the moment when the Gate of Space would shine again. At that time, no one knew how many would still be alive, nor whether someone of great power would appear to lead them away from this place, granting them better prospects for development.\u003C\u002Fp>",1153,"2026-06-18T04:21:13.844Z",1,"Qwen3.5 397B","6d8a76f905b375a810334a5fd65bf5c5981a98136d98944752ecc5a1f5e72bdd","record-of-the-full-time-hunter-chapter-3","record-of-the-full-time-hunter-chapter-1",3,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Frecord-of-the-full-time-hunter-cover.jpg"]
