Want to retrieve atsToken from the below response:
<data contentType="application/x-www-form-urlencoded;charset=UTF-8" contentLength="53"><![CDATA[atsToken=DA:1501022300340:fmsBe51FV_TUmnJFj1nz5f77Jqg]]></data>
And pass it to the next request, I'm not sure what XPATH expression can be used here.
Do I have to use XPath expression or script to retrieve the data?
Thanks in advance.
Groovy script and/or property transfer options are shown in this article

Looks you are using REST with xml format.
And your data is little tricky as it is inside CDATA. And even that is not simple string or xml, it is again properties. And this type of sample does not appear to be present in the soapui samples of above reply link.
You can quickly try it online demo how to extract the same.
Here you go, add Script Assertion for the request test step which extracts the token and set it test case level, so that property expansion can be used where that is needed i.e., ${#TestCase#ATS_TOKEN}
