Chapter 355 Xuanwu Continent (7)
Everyone watching the live broadcast felt a chill run down their spines. There were people who were skilled at skinning, but no one had ever seen a child who was only seven years old do it so skillfully.
What did you do before?
"What are you all standing there for? Hurry up and find some ingredients. We don't need you here." Wangyou waved her hand and continued processing the wolf pelt.
Seeing this, Xiao Ce and Xuan He could only prepare to start a fire and cook.
Wangyou quickly removed all usable parts from the wolf carcass and then processed the wolf pelt.
They then gathered some herbs from the surrounding area, intending to make a beast-repelling powder. Whether it would work or not, they didn't know, since there was no spiritual energy here.
The group hurriedly finished their dinner. The taste was neither good nor bad, but since they couldn't get the items out of their storage bags, Wangyou was fairly satisfied. At least it wouldn't kill anyone.
After dinner, Wangyou distributed the processed wolf pelts to them; how they carried them was their own business.
"Let's take turns keeping watch tonight. Wangyou is too young and still needs to grow, so she doesn't need to," Xuanhe said after thinking for a moment.
“I’m fine,” Yu Bingqing nodded and said.
“We’re fine with it too.” Xiao Ce and Yan Tian also felt there was no problem.
"Then I won't stand on ceremony." Wangyou didn't refuse at all, casually tossed the few herbs in her hand into the fire, then leaned against a tree and fell asleep instantly.
The surroundings gradually quieted down, and Xiao Ce and the others took turns keeping watch. Fortunately, the night passed peacefully.
In the wilderness, such quietness is obviously strange, and the group of people outside also find it odd. For the other trainees, let alone sleeping peacefully, they are lucky to even be alive. How is it possible for this place to be so peaceful?
"Nothing happened last night, looks like we were lucky." Xiao Ce stretched, feeling strange, but it was good that we didn't encounter any danger.
"Let's hurry up and leave here. It's better to find the monsters. Otherwise, if the final judgment is based on the number of monsters killed, we might be at a disadvantage. Even if the judgment is based on monsters, we can still gain practical experience," Yu Bingqing said with a serious face.
"Sister Bingqing is right." Wangyou clapped her hands, and the others thought it made sense. They quickly cleaned up the surroundings and continued forward.
As they walked, Wangyou suddenly remembered the jade tablet that had transported them in. Apart from the single character "一", it was unchanged, except that the jade tablet seemed to be a little brighter than yesterday.
“Take a look at your jade pendants. I feel like they’re a little brighter than they were yesterday,” Wangyou said, holding up her jade pendant to the other four.
"Has anything changed?" Xiao Ce took out the jade token and examined it carefully.
"It does seem a bit brighter, but it's not very noticeable," Yan Tian said confidently after examining it carefully for a while.
"Is there any significance to the fact that this jade pendant has become brighter?" Xuanhe asked softly.
"Could it be related to the result of our match?"
"If that's the case, we can find a team, rob their jade tokens, and see for ourselves." Wangyou thought for a long time but couldn't come up with a reason, so she decided to use a simple and brutal method: robbery.
“That makes sense.” Yan Tian was the first to respond, and the others had no objections either, so the matter was settled.
"Roar!" A furious roar rang out, and judging from the sound, it was not far from Wangyou and the others.
"That sound sounds a bit like a lion's roar. I wonder which team ran into it."
"The Lion Roar Beast is adept at attacking its opponents with sonic waves."
"Let's go see which unlucky team it is." Wangyou rubbed her hands together, her desire to watch the show was very obvious.
The group shared the same idea, so the five of them ran together toward the direction from which the lion's roar came.
When I heard about it, I thought I wasn't far from them, but when I started running, I realized it was really far.
"This lion's roar has a wide range of sound transmission. We've been running for so long. Even if we get there, we might not be able to tell if those people are still alive." Wangyou's short legs were struggling, but her small size was too obvious at this moment.
"Wangyou, how about I carry you on my back and run?" Xiao Ce said smugly, looking at his long legs.
"Hmph, I'll start practicing internal energy cultivation techniques right now!" Wangyou was unhappy. She pulled out an internal energy cultivation technique from somewhere in her mind and started practicing. Sure enough, reading more books is beneficial.
Wangyou first practiced the Shadow Step, and before she knew it, her speed was getting faster and faster. She not only caught up with the four tall and long-legged people, but also ran ahead of them.
"What kind of highly nutritious food did you eat? You're suddenly running so fast."
"I'm practicing a footwork technique that only those without cultivation talent can learn. Do you want to practice with me?" Wangyou slowed her pace with ease and asked the four of them.
"Yes, this speed is great! If we can't win, we can just run away!" Xiao Ce nodded repeatedly. "But don't worry, I'll give you a reward after we get out."
"We won't take your cultivation technique for free either."
"Alright, I'll tell you then, listen carefully." Wangyou said as she ran, explaining the contents of the cultivation technique.
These individuals were born with exceptional talent, so their comprehension speed was naturally quite fast. Before long, their Shadow Steps were already quite impressive.
Not only is the speed much faster, but it's also much less tiring.
"Once I get into one of the five major academies, I'll also go to the library to read more books. I used to think that having spiritual power was all I needed, but now it seems that mastering another skill is always a good thing," Xuanhe sighed.
With the help of the Shadow Step, the five of them finally arrived at the scene after a quarter of an hour, and then saw two groups of people with swords drawn.
"What are they doing? Are they just staring at each other?" Wangyou slammed on the brakes and whispered.
"Judging from that corpse, it should be the corpse of a Lion Roar Beast. The woman in white over there is holding a small beast, which I guess is a cub of the Lion Roar Beast. They must be fighting over this cub," Yu Bingqing whispered to Wangyou.
"Are lion roar beast cubs very precious?" Wangyou asked, puzzled.
"It's more than just precious. The Lion Roar Beast ranks thirty-sixth on the Spirit Beast Ranking. The survival rate of its cubs is very low, but if you are lucky enough to raise it, it is said that an adult Lion Roar Beast can kill a Supreme Being with a single roar." Xiao Ce said, sounding somewhat eager to try.
"I see." Wangyou wasn't tempted, considering that Dabai and Sanlengzi beside her were beings capable of tearing apart even the Supreme Being with their bare hands.
To be honest, Wangyou's starting point is too high; she doesn't even care about these low-level things.
"We killed the Lion Roar Beast! Have you no shame? You come up here and try to steal our spoils. Return our Lion Roar Beast right now, or don't blame us for being impolite!" a man in blue shouted angrily.
