Chapter 25 - Win



Chapter 25 Win

The people of the tribe grew excited.

They loved watching people fight!

Everyone was looking forward to Shi Li and Xiong Ye’s fight as they were the strongest two people of the younger generation.

“Shi Li and Xiong Ye’s animal forms are so beautiful!”

“Xiong Ye was so thin after the winter, but now he’s plump again!”

“Their fur is so glossy. If only my fur could be like that!”

......

Some people discussed Xiong Ye and Shi Li’s animal forms, while others debated their combat ability.

“Who do you guys think will win?”

“I feel like it will be Xiong Ye. Xiong Ye’s animal form is very big, and he’s also very strong.”

“It’s uncertain. Xiong Qi’s animal form is a little bigger than Xiong Ye’s, but didn’t he still lose to Shi Li?”

......

Other than these people, there was someone else who paid more attention to Zhou Ji, who was the cause of this incident. Xiong Bai ran up to Zhou Ji and asked, “Hey, Zhou Ji, how did you make Xiong Ye like you?”

Xiong Bai felt that Zhou Ji was really a lethal beauty, and she wanted to learn from him and become a lethal beauty too.

Zhou Ji didn’t reply. He had been keeping his attention on Xiong Ye the entire time. Xiong Bai questioned him again, “Hey, quickly tell me, why does Xiong Ye like you and not me?”

Zhou Ji finally turned his head towards Xiong Bai, “Probably because I’m male.”

One thing he was extremely certain about was that Xiong Ye liked men.

Xiong Bai: “......” Forget it, she can’t become this kind of lethal beauty.

Zhou Ji’s attention soon returned to the ‘battlefield’.

Xiong Ye and Shi Li roared into each other’s faces a few times, and then Xiong Ye immediately charged over.

A brown bear’s speed was incomparable to a lion’s no matter what. Shi Li immediately leapt away, then used the same method he had used against Xiong Qi–he used his own agility to dodge Xiong Ye’s attack, then searched for opportunities to attack Xiong Ye.

Both sides attacked and dodged back and forth like this as they began to fight.

Zhou Ji was watching very carefully, but the one who was the most absorbed in the fight at this moment was definitely Xiong Ye.

Having seen the fight between Shi Li and Xiong Qi, he knew how powerful Shi Li was and didn’t dare be the slightest bit careless right now.

He pounced towards Shi Li several times but failed to land an attack on him, so he calmed down and simply stopped attacking. Instead, he watched Shi Li coolly.

He had analyzed the battle between Xiong Qi and Shi Li, and knew that the reason Xiong Qi had lost had a lot to do with how he had been enraged by Shi Li.

At that time, Shi Li had provoked Xiong Qi and made it seem as though Xiong Qi was always about to land a hit so that Xiong Qi would keep chasing him... During the pursuit, not only was Xiong Qi’s strength soon exhausted, Shi Li had even managed to accurately pinpoint Xiong Qi’s flaws and land repeated attacks on old wounds.

Xiong Ye felt that Xiong Qi had still had a chance to win–If Xiong Qi had calmed down, hadn’t wasted his physical strength, and remembered to defend himself, he might’ve won.

At this moment, he calmed down.

Xiong Ye no longer took the initiative to attack and remained on the defense. Several times when Shi Li was about to land an attack, Xiong Ye smacked him away with a huge bear paw.

Shi Li’s claws were very sharp and could easily tear through his prey’s fur, and Shi Li’s teeth were also very sharp, capable of biting off his prey’s neck. Xiong Ye lacked all of these.

However, Xiong Ye’s strength was absolutely higher than Shi Li’s.

A slap by his bear paw... If it had been a fifty kilogram bird-footed dinosaur, it would’ve had its spine broken!

However, Shi Li was truly agile. Xiong Ye could feel that Shi Li’s speed had increased a little compared to a month ago, allowing Shi Li to constantly dodge away from his attacks.

The two sides were stuck in a deadlock for a while.

Xiong Ye constantly remained in the middle of the battlefield, while Shi Li roamed near the edges looking for opportunities... Xiong Ye was very clear that this would consume a lot of Shi Li’s physical strength, and no matter how strong Shi Li was, his endurance wasn’t very high.

With a low roar, Xiong Ye suddenly pounced over during one of the many attacks Shi Li had launched at him...

Everyone in the tribe knew that Xiong Ye’s fighting power wasn’t as high as Xiong Qi’s. After all, Xiong Ye had just reached adulthood and wasn’t fully grown, and his experience was not as plentiful as Xiong Qi’s.

Because of this, when he and Shi Li fought, the vast majority of people believed that Shi Li would win.

However, the opposite was true.

At first, Xiong Ye only defended, dodging clumsily and appearing as though he couldn’t beat Shi Li, but later on, he suddenly burst out and fought Shi Li directly!

One bear and one lion fought each other so closely that it was hard to tell them apart.

When Shi Li had fought with Xiong Qi before, he hadn’t used his mouth to attack. Now, however, he constantly bit at Xiong Ye, but Xiong Ye didn’t give much ground...

Zhou Yi knew that Xiong Ye could win.

Although that lion knew how to absorb the energy in the air, Zhou Ji had given Xiong Ye more energy than that.

Zhou Ji relaxed and began to pay attention to his surroundings. He saw that everyone in the tribe was watching the fight with avid eyes, and the priest had even brought his three apprentices with him to sit at the entrance of his cave, watching intently while holding that bamboo tube of honey that Zhou Ji had given to him.

While watching, this old beastmen also didn’t forget to dip his finger into the honey to eat it. It was quite amazing, but a little unsanitary...

With this in mind, Zhou Ji then saw Xiong Ye give Shi Li a bite.

That was also a little unsanitary...

Zhou Ji continued to analyze the situation in the battlefield and then noticed that while Shi Li was gradually losing his strength, Xiong Ye was still full of energy.

Shi Li lost.

The brown bear pressed the lion under him. The lion roared reluctantly and was slapped on the head by the brown bear.

“Xiong Ye won!”

“I just knew that Xiong Ye was the most amazing!”

“Xiong Ye actually won against Shi Li, does that mean he’s even more powerful than Xiong Qi?”

“Not necessarily... Didn’t Xiong Qi say that he lost to Shi Li because of his injuries?”

......

Some people in the tribe began to cheer, and the children began to shout out Xiong Ye’s name, “Xiong Ye! Xiong Ye!”

To the children of the tribe, Xiong Ye was their favorite person!

The brown bear shook his head, released the lion under him, then raised up a forepaw and waved in Zhou Ji’s direction. He looked very delighted.

Shi Li felt extremely humiliated at the moment.

He hadn’t thought that he would lose.

Regarding the previous battle with Xiong Ye, he had thought that it wasn’t surprising that he had lost. At the time, he had just been reborn and hadn’t adapted to his body yet, the battlefield had been too narrow, and coupled with the guilt he felt towards Xiong Ye... He naturally couldn’t win.

But this time, he had tried his best!

When he had fought with Xiong Qi, he hadn’t really gone to bite Xiong Qi and hadn’t given full play to his biggest advantage, his teeth. However, this time when he had fought with Xiong Ye, he had used his teeth–He didn’t find it so unacceptable to bite Xiong Ye.

He had done all this, but as a result, he had still lost.

Yet clearly, in his previous life when he had fought with Xiong Ye, the two of them had been tied!

Shi Li lay in the muddy ground in the middle of the valley and let out a low, low roar. He was already furious enough to burst.

His cultivation time was still too short! If he had been given a bit more time, he definitely wouldn’t have lost!

People all around him were cheering, and Shi Li glared hatefully around the crowd as he crawled up from the ground and ran towards his cave. And at this moment, Xiong Ye was preparing to take on human form.

“Don’t change back.” Zhou Ji stopped Xiong Ye–If Xiong Ye changed back at this time, he would be naked in front of the whole tribe...

Xiong Ye was a little puzzled when he heard Zhou Ji’s words, but Zhou Ji petted the huge brown bear’s head, “I like you this way.”

Xiong Ye happily rubbed his head against Zhou Ji’s palm.

He also liked his animal form. Many people in the tribe liked his animal form, but previously, Shi Li hadn’t liked it very much and always said that his animal form was too big to hug.

Now, it was great that Zhou Ji liked it.

“Let’s go back to the cave.” Zhou Ji said.

The brown bear nodded and picked up the meat they had roasted with its paws–the meat was quite heavy and too much for Zhou Ji to carry.

Zhou Ji saw what he was doing and simply picked up the animal hide that had fallen from Xiong Ye’s waist when he turned into his animal form, walking easily behind the brown bear as they headed back.

People around them were all envious when they saw this scene.

“I said before that Zhou Ji was lucky, but I hadn’t expected his luck to be that good!”

“How did Xiong Ye fall for him just like that!”

“If I’d known earlier, I would’ve talked to Xiong Ye more...”

Many people envied Zhou Ji, but Shi Li, who had already returned to Lang Yin’s cave, only wished he could tear Zhou Ji into shreds. It was only remembering the matter of Zhou Ji’s father being a Beast King that allowed him to finally calm down.

He shouldn’t have gone to talk to Xiong Ye today. Otherwise, Xiong Ye wouldn’t have proposed to Zhou Ji.

However, these things had already happened and now it was too late!

Shi Li was incredibly upset and was just thinking about how to prevent Xiong Ye and Zhou Ji from getting together when Lang Yin returned.

Shi Li felt humiliated, but Lang Yin also felt humiliated.

People in the tribe who didn’t have mates could be with whoever they wanted to and have children with whoever they wanted. It was all arbitrary, but generally speaking, as long as two people moved in together, it meant that they wouldn’t be with anyone else before they had children.

Men in particular would definitely start to guard against other men approaching their woman after they moved in together. They would also be on the woman every day after that to ensure that the child was theirs.

After the birth of the child, although it was likely that they would separate, the man would still provide some basic support to the woman and their child at the start, and the woman would raise the child until they reached at least three years old.

Of course, there were some women who didn’t want to live with a man and liked to raise their children alone, so they might choose to sleep with many men. Or, there were other women who didn’t want to have children but had needs, so they would sleep with others first...

Lang Yin was planning to have a child and didn’t plan to raise the child alone, which was why she had directly invited Shi Li to move in with her.

It was like building a nest together and then having children to fill up that nest.

Unexpectedly, Shi Li’s behavior was very different from that of the other men in the tribe!

At first, Lang Yin was already dissatisfied that Shi Li hadn’t treated her well and only knew how to sleep. Later on, Shi Li had fought against Xiong Qi and won, so her opinion of Shi Li improved.

Yet today, Shi Li ran off to intercede in the matter of who Xiong Ye was with!

He clearly still liked Xiong Ye!

When Lang Yin returned, she saw a huge lion lying in the middle of her cave.

She was brimming with anger, “Shi Li, get the hell out. I’m not going to have children with you anymore!”

She would rather find someone weaker than deal with Shi Li any longer!

“What do you mean?” Shi Li turned into human form and glared at Lang Yin.

“I’m telling you to get out!” Lang Yin said.

“You’re driving me away because I lost?” Shi Li really felt that he had seen through Lang Yin!

He won against Xiong Qi, so Lang Yin was good to him. Now that he’d lost, Lang Yin immediately changed her attitude and refused to acknowledge him.

This woman... Ha!

“You can think whatever you like. Just get the hell out.” Lang Yin said. Lang Yin really wasn’t abandoning Shi Li just because he had lost. Back when she had expressed interest towards Shi Li, Shi Li had just lost to Xiong Ye!

What she hated was that Shi Li didn’t take her seriously at all!

Shi Li’s attitude wasn’t like that of a man who wanted to have children with her at all... This man had agreed to be with her only in order to live with her and have her take care of him, right?

If she found another man who was inferior in strength to Shi Li to spend her days with, she would still definitely have a better time of it! Just looking at Shi Li right now, when she had a child and couldn’t participate in the hunts, would Shi Li be willing to take care of her?

Lang Yin had previously disdained Xiong Qi for being too old, but now she felt that Xiong Qi was pretty good. At least Xiong Qi had had children with others before and would help take care of them.

Shi Li was very prideful. Since Lang Yin had pointed at his nose and told him to get out, how could he bear to stay?

“You’ll regret this!” Shi Li tossed down these parting words and left Lang Yin’s cave without thinking twice, planning to go back to Yang Ying’s place.

As a result, he discovered that Yang Ying had rearranged the cave after he had moved out, and the place he had originally been given to sleep in was now occupied by Yang Su–Yang Su was getting older, so it was no longer appropriate for him to sleep with Yang Ying.

It was inevitable that Shi Li would burst into a rage once again.

Yang Su and Yang Ying were also full of anger.

Their lives had been very hard after Shi Li had moved out.

After going through winter, they had long run out of stored food and had counted on Shi Li to help them. However, after moving out, Shi Li actually ignored them completely!

Yang Ying was filled with so much regret, she could die. She hadn’t liked Xiong Ye precisely because she was afraid of encountering this kind of situation. And yet, after Shi Li got together with someone else, their situation became even worse.

If Lang Yin had a child, perhaps Shi Li wouldn’t even look at them anymore!

Therefore, she was quite happy that Shi Li came back. However, after Shi Li returned, he went so far as to reprimand her and even started bossing Yang Su around.

Yang Ying was able to maintain her calm and bear with Shi Li’s nasty temper since she needed to rely on him, but after Yang Su had been roared at by Shi Li several times, he couldn’t hold back anymore, “What are you being so vicious for? You deserve what you got! Xiong Ye was so good to you, but you didn’t want him!”

Yang Su had never been nice to Xiong Ye these past few years, and it seemed on the surface that he really hated Xiong Ye, but in fact, all of this was born out of jealousy.

He wasn’t jealous that his elder brother treated Xiong Ye well, but he was jealous that Xiong Ye treated his elder brother well.

Xiong Ye would give anything that tasted good to his elder brother but never gave him anything and never paid attention to him... When he was young, he had tried hard to please Xiong Ye, wanting to be like his elder brother when he grew up and go hunting together with Xiong Ye. He felt that Xiong Ye would also be good to him when that happened, but unexpectedly, he had awakened as a sheep.

His fighting power was so poor that he couldn’t go hunting with Xiong Ye at all. Xiong Ye had never cared about him to start with and wouldn’t care about him in the future.

So he began to find trouble with Xiong Ye.

He and his mother didn’t treat Xiong Ye well, but Xiong Ye was still very good to his elder brother. All this made his heart increasingly unbalanced, and he couldn’t keep himself from badmouthing Xiong Ye in front of Shi Li.

Of course, he hadn’t realized any of these things before. It wasn’t until his elder brother and Xiong Ye had split up and Xiong Ye stopped paying attention to them that he suddenly came to this realization.

Today, he became even angrier when he saw that Xiong Ye actually wanted to form a mated pair with Zhou Ji.

How could Zhou Ji’s luck be so good? He had a powerful mother who cared for him and never had to worry about filling his stomach. After his mother died, and he was driven out, he was taken in by Xiong Ye. Now, he could even become mates with Xiong Ye!

Why didn’t he have that kind of luck? Why couldn’t Xiong Ye like him? Yang Su was both jealous and angry, and it wasn’t surprising that he spoke without thinking.

And the words that he spoke stirred up the hornet’s nest.

In his previous life, Yang Su had always tried his best to please Shi Li, and especially after Shi Li became a Beast King, he had followed and served him even more carefully. He was full of compliments and good words, hoping that Shi Li could give him some of the things that leaked out from between his fingers.

Shi Li was used to that kind of attitude from him. How could he tolerate Yang Su’s disrespect now?

Shi Li was enraged and immediately gave Yang Su a slap.

This time, even Yang Ying became unhappy, “Shi Li, you no longer want to concern yourself with us now that you’re so powerful, right? How could you be so heartless!”

Inside Shi Li’s cave, the family who had originally been very loving towards each other began to quarrel and fight.

Xiong Ye’s cave was a little distance away from Shi Li’s cave, and Xiong Ye was completely unaware of what was happening over at Shi Li’s side. Zhou Ji learned a bit of it through his spiritual powers, but he wasn’t interested in these things and didn’t pay much attention to it.

He was currently stroking a bear.

After returning to the cave with Xiong Ye, he began to touch Xiong Ye’s animal form–Xiong Ye’s glossy and shiny fur really made others want to pet it.

Once he started, he couldn’t stop–Xiong Ye was such a large brown bear, and when he used his pair of small black eyes to look at him, it was indescribably cute!

The only drawback was that the bear’s fur wasn’t soft. It was actually a little hard, but as long as he stroked along the fur, it was still very nice to the touch.

Also, Xiong Ye’s fur wasn’t hard everywhere. The fur on his belly was soft.

In fact, Zhou Ji had always been curious about beastmen and had wanted to study them for a long time. However, he wasn’t familiar with the others and naturally couldn’t try anything, so he generally only observed them from a distance with his spiritual powers.

Now that Xiong Ye was in front of him, he could study his beast form properly.

Zhou Ji touched Xiong Ye’s thick fur again.

Xiong Ye felt very comfortable from the petting. In order to make it more convenient for Zhou Ji, he had laid down and stretched out his 500 kilogram body so that Zhou Ji could touch as he liked.

But as time went on, he started to feel a little embarrassed from all the touches.

At the start, it wasn’t a big deal for Zhou Ji to touch his back, but as he petted and stroked, he started to touch his stomach!

At first, Xiong Ye felt that Zhou Ji must be doing this because he liked his animal form, but then, he began to have other ideas–Was Zhou Ji trying to imply something?

Zhou Ji was older than him. He had already been an adult for a few years but had never had a mate... Cough!

Xiong Ye was just thinking about this matter when Zhou Ji stroked the stomach of the brown bear who was lying on his back and said, “You can change back now.” Although Xiong Ye had won, he had still been scratched a few times by Shi Li’s claws and had been bitten a few times. Xiong Ye probably had wounds on his body, and he needed to take a look at them for Xiong Ye.

Xiong Ye was very obedient, and since Zhou Ji had told him to change back, he changed. However, after taking on human form... Their positions seemed a little wrong!

xiin: oh, XY baby, you’re thinking too much...

Juurensha: Good job Lang Yin! Throw the lazy bum out!
