Live Strong in the Wilderness

"Black Qilin, come back."

Xu Yi shouted, and his Red Lotus Flying Arrows accelerated, shooting towards the Black Qilin’s closest target.

However, the Black Qilin didn’t turn back and instead swiftly climbed up a tree.

Xu Yi was momentarily stunned, then grinned.

This was the first time he discovered the Black Qilin could climb trees.

Meanwhile, the husky that was about to rescue the Black Qilin met with a tragic fate as it collided with the four Fierce Beasts.

Other than biting, there was no other way.

Fortunately, Xu Yi managed to hit one of them. Although it didn’t pierce through its head, the Red Lotus Flying Arrow penetrated halfway, rendering it unable to fight.

At this moment, the Black Qilin leaped down from the tree, landing behind a Fierce Beast and bit onto one of its legs.

After taking a bite, it immediately retreated.

Sneaky, Xu Yi realized for the first time how sneaky the Black Qilin was.

It could be said to be highly strategic.

This surprised Xu Yi.

At the same time, Lu Ke and Qin Fan had already acted, shooting two Red Lotus Flying Arrows at the Fierce Beasts from both front and back.

Then, the brains of the two Fierce Beasts were penetrated by the Red Lotus Flying Arrows.

With level two Brain Crystals, combined with the Red Lotus Flying Arrows, they had the power to quickly kill level two Fierce Beasts.

The battle was still going on for another three minutes before it ended.

Now, there was only one Fierce Beast left biting against the husky.

The Black Qilin occasionally launched sneak attacks.

Xu Yi and the others rushed forward, surrounding the Fierce Beast.

"Exhaust its Telekinesis, then capture it," Xu Yi said.

The others immediately understood.

Xu Yi had his eye on this Fierce Beast and planned to capture and tame it.

Of course, the happiest person was Wang Jin.

After all, Xu Yi promised the fourth Fierce Beast to her.

Everyone brought out their spears and surrounded the Fierce Beast in the middle.

"Black Qilin, stand down," Xu Yi called out.

"Husky, come here," Lu Ke shouted, as the husky only understood this command. To make it understand more commands would require constant training.

They were all very strong, with twelve spears forming a circle around the Fierce Beast, so they didn’t worry about being bitten.

The Black Qilin and the husky circled the perimeter, appearing somewhat excited.

If orders were given, they would jump in immediately.

Everyone’s attacks included Telekinesis, except for Xu Yi.

Only in this way could they wear down the Fierce Beast’s Telekinesis.

After half an hour, everyone was exhausted, but the Fierce Beast lay incapacitated on the ground.

"Level 2 Fierce Beasts are indeed... strong," Qin Chao wiped the sweat from his forehead, speaking weakly.

Among the twelve people, Xu Yi seemed like the only one unaffected.

After all, he didn’t use Spiritual Power, only his strength.

The others were in a similar state to Qin Chao.

If a Fierce Beast attacked now, it would be very dangerous.

Without saying a word, Xu Yi thrust his spear into the ground and took out a rope to tie up the Fierce Beast like a dumpling.

Next, he took out the Brain Crystals from the remaining four Fierce Beasts and gave one each to Qin Fan and Lu Ke, then to Zhou Mo and Qin Chao.

Now, they had seven level two Brain Crystals, enhancing their capabilities further.

Without Brain Crystals, dealing with level two Fierce Beasts would require wearing down the beasts’ Telekinesis before killing them.

After about ten minutes, they left with the Fierce Beast’s corpse.

After all, those who fled knew they were fighting here and might seek others.

Sure enough, several minutes after Xu Yi and the others left, seventy to eighty people showed up.

"Boss, it was here, you see some blood and claw marks on the ground," one person said to Jerry.

Jerry surveyed the area and said, "So you mean to say those twelve people managed to kill five level two Fierce Beasts?"

Jerry and his group had also hunted level two Fierce Beasts and noted the different brain crystal colors, leading to the grading of beasts.

"Maybe not, perhaps the Fierce Beasts chased them away," Lavinie commented.

"But at first Xu Yi killed a Fierce Beast; if they were chased off, what about that one’s corpse?" another person questioned.

"Ye Qing, you are right, Xu Yi and the others likely killed all the Fierce Beasts. After all, with enough level two Brain Crystals, killing five Fierce Beasts isn’t much," Ji Rui praised the young man named Ye Qing.

"But do they have that many level two Brain Crystals? We have so many people, and only four," Lavinie remained doubtful of Xu Yi’s strength.

"Don’t forget how strong Xu Yi is. His speed of improvement is surely faster than ours. Luckily, Xu Yi is rather reclusive, preferring small teams," Jerry admitted grudgingly, feeling the deeper into the jungle, the more individual strength mattered.

Without strength, you could die at any moment.

His team had already lost two people.

Without doubt, Xu Yi was the strongest among all the challengers.

Spiritual Power wasn’t as simple as Xu Yi made it out to be.

Even knowing this, Jerry felt powerless.

After all, among the remaining four hundred challengers, only Xu Yi had awakened Spiritual Power; hence, only Xu Yi understood it. Without him speaking, they were clueless.

"What should we do now? Should we catch up and take back the Brain Crystals?" a challenger asked.

"Take back? Since when did those Brain Crystals belong to us?" Jerry gave the person a look. He too desired the Brain Crystals, but such thoughts were unspeakable, right?

Didn’t they see, there were over eighty following cameras?

"What do we do next, contact Xu Yi and the others?" Lavinie asked.

"Even if we want to, Xu Yi and the others may not. Otherwise, they wouldn’t have taken the Fierce Beast’s body and left. Let’s head back to camp; this place is full of level two Fierce Beasts, let’s pull back," Jerry decided that even with his numbers, confronting Xu Yi’s group was unadvisable.

After all, Xu Yi’s squad had three Thunder Strike Guns.

While Thunder Strike wasn’t great against Fierce Beasts, against humans, even level one setting was a one-shot deal. In a real fight, they could be wiped out.

Lavinie glanced reluctantly at the jungle, knowing full well that five level two Brain Crystals were at stake.

Xu Yi and his group, after carrying the Fierce Beast body for over an hour, stopped upon encountering a small stream.

"Let’s handle the Fierce Beast’s body first, we’ll camp here for the night," Xu Yi stated, dragging the Fierce Beast’s corpse off Black Qilin’s back.

No one questioned Xu Yi; everyone got to work, with the women handling the Fierce Beast’s body while the men set up camp.
