There were about a dozen orcs in their group, who were angrily confronting several guards over there, with some grievance in their expressions.
The handsome male beast in the lead shouted, "Our tribe was destroyed by the Hell Beast. All the tribesmen have scattered to avoid it. I don't know if the leader and the high priest are still alive. Where can we get your identity marks?"
His companion beside him excitedly said, "We've explained it so many times, why aren't you letting us into the city?"
The other companions were equally agitated. "We know the rules of Beast City, but the Northland Hell Beasts have been appearing more frequently lately. You're all aware of this, so can't you bend them to suit the situation?"
"That's right! We just don't want to die in the ice and snow of the North!"
"Let us in, we want to find out the news about the beasts in our tribe!"
"Yes, maybe the female beasts of our tribe are in the beast city!"
"You beasts from Beast City not only ignore those hell beasts, but you also come to embarrass us!"
The voices of these male beasts were full of dissatisfaction and grievance, but the guards in front of them still looked at them indifferently, without making way for them, and impatience was obvious on their faces.
One of the guards said coldly, "No female beasts of your kind have come to Beast City in the past few days. We know all the female beasts in Beast City. Since you don't have an identity totem, we can't let you in. We must ensure the safety of all the beastmen in the city. Who knows if you are a Yan Beast?"
"Who do you say is the Yan Beast? You are really going too far!" The handsome male beast in the lead immediately exploded, looking at them with red eyes, and even had the urge to rush up and beat them up.
At this time, the guard said calmly, "There are female beasts in Beast City that need protection. In addition, with the recent Overlord Competition, the number of female beasts coming and going to Beast City has increased. We need to prioritize their safety. We don't have time to deal with the group of Yan beasts right now, and they are already evacuating to the south."
The guards' indifferent attitude almost made these male beastmen cry with anger. They were full of grievances but had no place to vent. They looked at the entrance to the beast city behind the guards. They wanted to go in, but they couldn't.
Because Ye Luoxing turned towards them, all the male beastmen who were paying attention to Ye Luoxing turned their eyes in that direction.
They listened to the dispute between the two sides, frowned obviously, and looked at the dozen or so male beasts who wanted to break into the beast city with dissatisfaction.
"What's wrong with them? They're arguing with the guards outside of Beast City?"
"Won't this disturb the passing female beasts? It's so loud!"
"The guard beasts should have beaten them up and thrown them far away!"
The male beasts behind them were very dissatisfied, and their angry shouts irritated the eardrums of these male beasts.
Sova was equally unhappy when he saw this. He thought they must have disturbed the beautiful female beast in front of him, which was why she kept staring at that side. He immediately winked at the orcs beside him: "Tell them to drive those orcs away quickly. Can't they see there are female beasts here? They are too noisy!"
"I'll go right away." The male beast behind Sova on the left looked at Ye Luoxing apologetically, then walked over with a sinister face, while transforming into claws as he walked, as if he was going to take action directly.
Ye Luoxing noticed their actions and immediately shouted, "Wait!"
As soon as her clear voice sounded, the male beast that had not yet walked far stopped in its tracks. He turned around and looked at her in surprise. Sova and several other guards turned their gazes back to look at her. Some male beasts in the surrounding herds who heard her voice also looked at her again.
Ye Luoxing didn't wait for Suova to ask, and asked first: "What is the identity totem?"
There were phrases in their conversation that she didn't understand, so she naturally wanted to ask for clarification.
Suowa and the others were surprised to see that she didn't understand the meaning of the identity totem, but they didn't hesitate to answer her question. Suowa said to her hurriedly, "Before each tribe's male beasts set out on a long journey, the tribe's leader and high priest will give them a beast-shaped totem that symbolizes the tribe. This is the difference between ordinary beasts and hell beasts, and it's usually tattooed on the arm."
Ye Luoxing listened to his explanation and turned to look at the surrounding teams. She found that most of the male beastmen had a white beast totem tattooed on their arms. Some of those totems were birds and beasts, some were land beasts, and there were even totems of sea beasts. The color of the totem was completely opposite to the black of the companion beast pattern, and it was also different from the red beast pattern on the Yan beasts.
Ye Luoxing nodded in understanding. It turned out that this was the orcs' "identity certificate".
She lowered her head, thinking deeply. She had been worried that Krolin and the others would sneak into the Beast City, but now it seemed that there was no need to worry. The magical power possessed by the Beast World made them more secure in some aspects than in the feudal ancient times.
She then asked, "Don't females need it? Is this identity totem permanent?"
Sova quickly replied, "Of course not for females. Every female beastman's arrival is an honor to the Beast City. This totem isn't permanent. Generally, the chief and high priest will grant a totem corresponding to the beastmen's travel time. After the time limit is exceeded, the totem will disappear. Only the companion totem is permanent."
"Is that so..." Ye Luoxing recalled. No wonder she didn't see the totem on Snow Owl and the others before. She remembered them saying that they had also been to Beast City.
Sowa added, "In the Beast City, if we find any male beast without an identity totem, we will generally expel him unless he regains his identity totem. Not to mention beasts like them who have no totems at all, we will never let them in."
Ye Luoxing could understand that since it was a rule, and not a bad rule, there was no problem in strictly abiding by it.
There must be a lot of female beasts in the Beast City. If any beastmen with bad intentions sneak in, the female beasts will be in danger.
However, the Hell Beasts have been appearing more frequently recently, and some of the orcs are truly desperate and have no other options...
What's more, those orcs...
Ye Luoxing asked Suowa: "Is this the only way for them to enter Beast City? Are there any other ways?"
Sova replied, "Yes, male beasts can prove their identity through identity totems, and they can also travel with their female companions. As long as they are accompanied by a female beast or companion, they can enter the beast city without even having to stay."
"Ye Luoxing is a female. Since you are a female beast, except for the fact that you need to ask for directions today when you first enter the Beast City, you can enter and leave the Beast City freely from now on. However, it is best to be accompanied by a male beast." Sova explained to her again, thinking that he finally got to say a few more words to her.
Ye Luoxing remembered that the female beast named Enya had rushed directly into the beast city with her companions. Just as Sova said, those companion beasts did not stop, and each of them had a very strong aura, and they didn't even glance at the beastmen in front of the city gate.
"Okay, I understand." Ye Luoxing knew what she wanted to know and was about to proceed to the next step. At this moment, she saw the peregrine falcon that had just flown into the city gate flew back, and a group of animals followed not far behind him.
