The system pouted and gradually calmed down.
[ Hmm… maybe… probably… nothing really happened.
That beastman did not even look at you twice.
He just picked you up and carried you away, then went to heat up medicine for you.
]
[ Hehe, Master, your figure and charm really are not working.
That guy did not even have any thoughts about you hahaha!
]
The system instantly returned to its mocking mode.
“…Shut up.”
Was this really the same system that had been crying and screaming like it was about to lose its mind just moments ago?
Si Bai did not hesitate and directly muted it.
At this moment, on the outskirts of the forest.
The hunting team led by Tiye was in complete chaos.
Dozens of beastmen had transformed into beast forms, forming a circle.
At the center of the circle were two heavily injured giant tigers, one yellow and one white, with multiple torn wounds across their bodies.
They were surrounded tightly as if facing a life or death confrontation.
Compared to the white tiger that was hesitating and retreating, the orange-yellow tiger’s physique was clearly stronger, and its aura even more overwhelming.
Roars echoed one after another as sharp fangs were bared, fully revealing their ferocity.
Both tigers had taken up attack stances.
The surrounding hunting team beastmen wanted to stop the two of them from fighting, but Tiye and Oyu were the only two Tier 5 Totem Warrior in this squad.
Their strength was extremely powerful, and no one else could even get close, let alone intervene.
Tiye and Oyu had never gotten along in the first place.
Not only were their strengths comparable and their pride equally high, they were also both absolute contenders for the position of future tribe leader, often engaging in open and hidden conflicts.
Tiye was the only mutated beastmen in the tribe.
His talent and strength had no second match.
Oyu, on the other hand, was the most outstanding children of the current tribe leader, and his talent was also one in a hundred.
“Roar!”
The orange tiger ground its fangs in anger, low growls rumbling from its throat.
Its amber eyes were filled with ferocity and cold killing intent as it locked tightly onto the white tiger that was clearly shrinking back and showing signs of wanting to escape.
“Oyu!
That Braicow was discovered by me first.
It is my prey!
If you do not return it now, I will tear you apart!”
The word “tear you apart” was not just talk.
In a world where food was scarce, the most hated and forbidden act was stealing someone else’s prey.
Even killing the offender was considered justified.
Even though Toye behaved obediently in front of Si Bai, that was only in front of Si Bai.
The fierce beastly nature flowing in the blood of beastmen would not diminish in the slightest.
The orange tiger’s low and heavy roar sounded like thunder.
Its entire body muscles swelled with rage, a pure display of intimidation.
Its hind legs were tightly coiled
as if it would pounce and rip the opponent apart in the next second.
These rare Braicow were something Tiye had waited a full day and night for, specially intended to bring back to nourish Si Bai’s body.
He never expected Oyu to cut in at the very last moment.
It was infuriating.
The white tiger, Oyu, still refused to yield.
He let out a cold laugh through clenched teeth.
“This prey was successfully captured by me.
I was the one who personally bit through its bloodline and killed it.
Everyone saw it.
What right do you have to claim you were the first to discover it?”
Oyu knew that these Braicow were first discovered by Tiye.
At the same time, it was precisely because Tiye had guarded them for nearly a full day and night without rest that he was able to reap the benefits at the last moment and successfully capture them first.
But so what?
Beastmen did not believe in “first come, first served.” They only believed in strength and survival of the fittest.
All sub-beastman liked milk Braicow.
Both Tiye and Oyu understood this very well.
Tiye wanted to bring it back for Si Bai to nourish his body, and Oyu also wanted to present the meat of these Braicow to that cold and indifferent but extremely captivating new sub-beastman in exchange for favorability.
Far back in the tribe, Si Bai, who was obediently drinking medicine, suddenly sneezed.
Who?
Who was thinking about him?
After a few more sentences of negotiation, things completely broke down.
Tiye finally stopped restraining himself.
With red tiger eyes, he seized the right moment and pounced forward like a flash of lightning.
His rock solid limbs were powerful and fierce, taking the initiative to slam Oyu down to the ground.
His teeth were sharp like blades as he tried to tear at Oyu’s neck, but at the critical moment Oyu twisted his body and narrowly avoided it.
The two tigers once again separated.
Tiye’s momentum was clearly stronger and his strength also had the upper hand.
However, although Oyu was not a mutated beastmen, his Tier 5 Totem Warrior strength made it very difficult for Tiye to completely take him down.
After the two tigers fought for a long time, the outcome was still unclear.
In the end, as the sky grew late and the hunting time was about to expire, both tigers finally stopped.
The hunting team that was made up of hundreds of mouths waiting for food depended entirely on what they brought back.
No matter how angry Tiye was, he would not act recklessly to the point of losing reason.
“You got lucky!” Tiye returned to human form, wiped the blood from the scratches on his face, and let out a cold snort.
“We will fight again when we get back to the tribe!
Stay away from my house, I will tear you into pieces of blood!”
After throwing down his threat, Tiye immediately ran to a nearby river to wash his wounds, cleaning the mud and blood off his body thoroughly.
