There are several reasons why Shi Li and Xiong Qi fought.
The cause was the wolf sound.
In the tribe, it is normal for a woman to have two suitors. It is even more normal for these two suitors to fight for the chance to be with her. There are even cases where two women fight for one man.
Xiong Qi had long had his eyes on Lang Yin, and now that Shi Li had gotten there first, he was naturally angry.
However, Lang Yin had already let Shi Li live in her cave, so even if he won the fight it would be in vain. Plus, Xiong Qi was injured while going out to exchange salt, so Xiong Qi did not go looking for trouble with Shi Li until he got along with Shi Li these few days.
After the salt exchange team came back, every time it was time to hunt, Xiong He would divide the participants into two teams and hunt separately. He led one team and Xiong Qi led the other team.
Xiong He has been training Xiong Ye, and Xiong Ye is in his team. Because Xiong Ye and Shi Li have a bad relationship now, Shi Li was assigned to Xiong Qi's team.
Shi Li and Lang Yin were assigned to Xiong Qi's team together. In front of Lang Yin, Xiong Qi did not do anything excessive to Shi Li, but he assigned Shi Li some harder work and let Shi Li take the lead when catching prey, that was for sure.
Xiong Qi had very good reasons for doing this - he was still injured, and as the most powerful beast-formed person in the team, Shi Li naturally had to do more.
If the person who was arranged like this was Kumano, he might be very happy, after all, it would give him more opportunities to train, but Shi Li is not Kumano.
A few days after his rebirth, Shi Li realized that his initial approach was wrong. He finally chose to be with Langyin, and began to try to adapt to his current life. He participated in every hunting trip, but he was different after all. For example, he could no longer bite the neck of his prey with his mouth.
How dirty and disgusting were dinosaurs?
But for a lion, his most powerful weapon is his teeth.
Before Xiong Qi was not leading the team, Shi Li instructed others on how to catch prey under the banner of teaching others, but he rarely took action himself. No one thought it was wrong, and some even thought that Shi Li knew a lot and was very powerful. But now Xiong Qi doesn't give him the opportunity to guide others at all.
During the hunting period, the conflicts between the two sides were bound to become increasingly serious.
Shi Li felt that Xiong Qi, a man who was destined to die early and whom he had no memory of, was deliberately causing trouble for him. It was really hateful and he wished to kill Xiong Qi. Xiong Qi, on the other hand, felt that Shi Li was incompetent and had a powerful beast form but could not catch any prey.
There is a rule in the tribe that fighting is not allowed during hunting, so they did not fight outside. But after returning to the tribe today, both sides could no longer hold back, and first they had an argument, and then they started fighting!
"Today Xiong Qi asked Shi Li to intercept the Dimetrodon. Shi Li was clearly capable of catching it, but he let the prey escape. No wonder Xiong Qi was so angry."
"Shi Li is deliberately going against Xiong Qi, right? Xiong Qi asks him to do something, but he never does it properly."
"Who do you think will win?"
"It must be Xiong Qi!"
…
Most people in the tribe think that Xiong Qi will win.
Xiong Qi's fighting ability is among the best in their tribe, but he is old, not much younger than the tribe leader Xiong He, so when Xiong He was training the next tribe leader, he skipped him.
Xiong He is still in good health now. It will take several years, or even ten years, for him to retire from the position of clan leader. By then, Xiong Qi will be quite old!
However, people in the tribe think that Xiong Qi will win, but Zhou Ji doesn't think so. He thinks Xiong Qi will lose.
He had had contact with Xiong Qi and had paid attention to Xiong Qi's condition. He knew at that time that Xiong Qi was injured, and it was internal injuries.
Xiong Qi was injured, so his fighting capacity was compromised, but that didn't mean he would lose. He would lose because Shi Li, for some unknown reason, actually used the omnipresent energy around him.
Although he used very little energy, he seemed to have known where Xiong Qi was injured, so that every attack was precisely aimed at the injured part of Xiong Qi.
Xiong Qi roared angrily, but his movements were restricted. The place where they were fighting was not the narrow platform outside the cave where Xiong Ye and Shi Li had fought before, but a spacious valley.
Shi Li's beast form was extremely agile and nimble in this valley. He seemed to be avoiding Xiong Qi, but in fact he had already gained the upper hand.
Zhou Ji was extremely curious about Shi Li.
Xiong Ye was also very surprised: "Shi Li didn't fight with people like this before..."
Niu Er is a very silent person. He has been living in a cave in Kumano these days. At night, he would fall into a deep sleep after being drunk by Zhou Ji, who would drink a bowl of calming soup. He doesn't talk much during the day, making people feel as if he doesn't exist.
But now, he did speak: "Xiong Qi was injured... When we were coming back from exchanging salt, we were chased by carnivorous dinosaurs... Several people were killed, and the salt they brought with them was not brought back. Later, Xiong Qi saw that the carnivorous dinosaurs had almost eaten all the food and should be full, so he led people to pick up salt, but he was hit by the tail."
Niu Er only said a few words, but the situation at that time was actually quite tragic.
The carnivorous dinosaurs were eating their people, and they wanted to get close to the carnivorous dinosaurs and take the salt that their people were carrying...
So many people have sacrificed their lives, they can't help but bring the salt back.
Zhou Ji glanced at the depressed Niu Er, continued to watch the situation below, and then saw that Xiong Qi's movements became slower and slower... Shi Li won.
Shi Li pounced on Xiong Qi and wanted to bite Xiong Qi to death for daring to anger him. But firstly, he couldn't bite anyone with his mouth, and secondly, this was in the tribe... Fighting was not prohibited in the tribe, but killing was not allowed.
The huge lion could only press the polar bear's neck with its front paws and roar to the sky.
Everyone in the tribe worships the strong. Shi Li actually defeated Xiong Qi. The way people in the tribe looked at Shi Li changed.
Shi Li was also quite proud.
When he was just reborn, he lost to Kumano, which made him depressed, but now he has defeated Xiongqi!
The reason he lost to Kumano was definitely because he underestimated his opponent!
Shi Li looked in the direction of the entrance of Kumano's cave and saw that Kumano was looking at him with admiration, so he roared again.
Zhou Ji noticed this scene and looked at Kumano, then saw that Kumano had retracted his gaze with a determined look on his face.
"I didn't expect Shi Li to become so powerful! I must train hard!" Xiong Ye's fighting spirit was ignited.
Zhou Ji imitated the priest and said, "The beast god will bless you."
Xiong Ye nodded and said, "I want to eat more meat!"
The food Zhou Ji received has always been the least in the tribe. Niu Er could not participate in the battle, so he did not get much food. Because of this, Xiong Ye did not dare to eat as much meat as he wanted these days. He usually ate about ten kilograms of meat a day. Zhou Ji would cook more for him according to his appetite, but even so, he would only eat fifteen or sixteen kilograms of meat a day at most.
Of course, with the vegetable and fish soup that Zhou Ji stuffed into his stomach, he would not go hungry. In fact, less than ten days after Zhou Ji lived with him, his beast form had gained weight and his fur was shiny and oily.
Now Kumano said he wanted to eat more meat... Zhou Ji put all the meat that Kumano got today into the pot and cooked it.
Compared to grilling, boiling meat is healthier, especially now that he has found a spice that Kumano likes very much, which can make the meat taste much better when cooked with it.
When dinosaur meat is cooked in a pot, a lot of foam will appear and it will also emit a smell. Zhou Ji took a spatula to scoop the foam into the bowl next to him, frowning slightly.
He doesn't like the taste.
"Let me do it." Xiong Ye said immediately. Zhou Ji was so delicate and tender that he felt embarrassed to ask Zhou Ji to do more work!
Zhou Ji handed over the shovel and went to the spacious wooden house divided into several rooms, which also had an iron pot.
The stone pot he used to cook for Kumano was left by the original owner's mother. In order to take care of the slightly stupid original owner, the original owner's mother would cook and grill meat in the cave, and therefore got a stone pot.
This stone pot has been polished to a thin layer, but it still takes a long time to cook, which is quite a drain on other people's patience...
Zhou Ji gave the spatula to Xiong Ye, went back to his room and lay down, continuing to observe the energy in the air around him. He also observed the crystal core in his body, and then he found that the white crystal core in his body had turned slightly yellow.
After sufficient energy is accumulated, will this crystal core undergo changes?
And...it turns out that the orcs in this place can use the energy in the air?
Since Shi Li can do it, can Kumano do it too?
Zhou Ji began to think about a way to make Xiong Ye the same as Shi Li.
He didn't want Xiong Ye to be inferior to Shi Li.
Of course, it's dark now, let's get some sleep first...
Zhou Ji silently began to absorb the energy around him.
Outside, Kumano and Wagyu eat the meat in two parts.
Niu Er's injuries were not completely healed, but his life was no longer in danger. He said, "Xiong Ye, I will go back to live tomorrow."
"You can stay a few more days." Kumano said.
"I can't live here forever." Niu Er said. During the days he lived with Kumano, he had been eating the food distributed by Kumano. Although Kumano didn't mind, he felt embarrassed.
"I'll send you back tomorrow." Xiong Ye said, planning to send Niu Er back tomorrow and give Niu Er a piece of meat.
Niu Er smiled slightly on his dark face, and thought of something: "Xiong Ye, what's going on between you and Zhou Ji? Are you planning to become a partner with Zhou Ji?"
Niu Er was groggy in the first few days after being brought back by Xiong Ye and didn't notice anything, but he woke up later. After waking up, he learned from Xiong Ye that he and Shi Li had separated.
Xiong Ye has already separated from Shi Li and is living with Zhou Ji again. Could it be that he wants to become a partner with Zhou Ji?
Niu Er initially thought that Zhou Ji was not worthy of Xiong Ye, but after eating a lot of food made by Zhou Ji recently, he felt that Zhou Ji was quite good.
Eat less and make delicious food!
Men can't have children anyway, so it doesn't matter if Zhou Ji is a little weaker, it won't affect future generations.
"Nothing." Xiong Ye said without thinking: "It's late, go to bed!"
It was already dark, and there were only a few tribesmen left in the valley outside. Kumano returned to his nest and prepared to sleep.
Niu Er fell asleep quickly and his breathing became steady, but Kumano couldn't sleep and began to ponder what Niu Er said.
Actually, Zhou Ji is really good. If he and Zhou Ji become a couple...
Kumano scratched his hair, felt sleepy, and soon fell asleep.
Zhou Ji got up after Kumano fell asleep. He used his mental power to draw the surrounding energy into Kumano's body, and began to study a method to allow Kumano to absorb the surrounding energy independently.
Kumano saved his life, so he made Kumano a strong man, which can be considered as a reward.
Zhou Ji sent a lot of energy into Kumano's body and let the energy flow in Kumano's body. He studied it for a while before going back to sleep.
On the other side, Shi Li was practicing hard and absorbing the surrounding energy with great difficulty.
Although he won the battle with Xiong Qi today, it was not an easy win. If he didn't know that Xiong Qi's injuries were actually very serious and where Xiong Qi was injured, he would definitely not have been able to win.
That would have been fine, but after such a fight, not only was he scratched several times by Xiong Qi, but the energy he had cultivated with great effort was almost completely dissipated.
All things are difficult at the beginning. It was because of this in his previous life that he almost couldn't hold on and was unwilling to continue practicing.
Of course, although it is hard to fight like this, it is still worth it.
The next morning, Shi Li just woke up and met Lang Yin's smiling face: "Shi Li, you awake? Do you want to eat something?"
As Lang Yin spoke, he gave him a large piece of barbecued meat. This piece of barbecued meat was much larger than the one he didn't finish yesterday... Shi Li knew that this piece of meat must belong to Lang Yin.
After discovering that he was very strong, Lang Yin, who had been picking on him a few days ago, immediately changed his attitude.
Shi Li felt somewhat proud, yet looked down upon Lang Yin.
Shi Li ate so much that his belly was full. When he came out of Lang Yin's cave, the attitude of the tribesmen towards him changed.
The people of the Big Bear Tribe all admired the strong, and Shi Li's performance yesterday was amazing, so everyone was naturally very enthusiastic about him and greeted him one after another: "Shi Li!"
"Shi Li, are you going to go hunting?"
"Shi Li, how did you defeat Xiong Qi?"
"Shi Li..."
…
Shi Li was surrounded by people and felt like he had returned to his previous life - in his previous life, everyone looked at him like this.
But at that time, there was always Kumano who was admired along with him.
Shi Li subconsciously went to look for Xiong Ye.
His current strength is definitely beyond that of Kumano, and he will become more and more powerful in the future. He will definitely leave Kumano far behind. What will happen to Kumano then?
Shi Li began to look forward to Xiong Ye becoming one of his people.
As for Lang Yin, Shi Li no longer has any good feelings towards her.
Shi Li didn't find Xiong Ye.
After seeing Shi Li's performance yesterday, Kumano was a little stimulated. He got up before dawn today and went to the forest to work. He was not in the valley at all.
It was Zhou Ji, however, who was slowly crawling down from the cave in Kumano.
"Zhou Ji." Shi Li called out to Zhou Ji. He was planning to get along well with Zhou Ji, but unfortunately he was busy practicing in the past few days and had no time.
Zhou Ji stood in front of Shi Li and said nothing.
Only then did Shi Li realize that Zhou Ji was as tall as himself... This guy has no fighting ability, it's really a waste of his height.
Shi Li felt a little contemptuous, but suddenly he realized that Zhou Ji was quite handsome.
In fact, compared to women, Shi Li still prefers men. Although Zhou Ji is a little weak, he is quite in line with his preferences. What's more, Zhou Ji has a father who is the Beast King...
"Is there something?" Zhou Ji was a little unhappy when Shi Li looked at him.
Shi Li said, "Are you used to living with Kumano? He has a bad temper. Has he ever gotten angry with you?" He remembered that Kumano had always been disgusted with people who were incompetent. For example, Yang Su, Kumano had always disliked him.
"No." Zhou Ji said. Kumano has a bad temper? He thinks Kumano has a good temper.
"Niu Er has also moved in recently. Will you feel uncomfortable adapting?" Shi Li asked again.
"No." Zhou Ji said indifferently.
"What are you going to do now?" Shi Li asked again.
"Collect." Zhou Ji still only said two words.
"You live with Kumano, but Kumano doesn't let you eat meat? And you still have to collect it yourself?" Shi Li looked at Zhou Ji with sympathy.
Zhou Ji: “…” After he came to this primitive tribe, the people he met were all straightforward and said whatever they wanted. This was the first time he encountered someone trying to sow discord.
The level is just too poor.
Shi Li couldn't hide his disdain for him on his face, but he still wanted to get close to him. What was even more disgusting was that Shi Li seemed to like him...
Zhou Ji ignored Shi Li and walked out directly.
He didn't want to waste his time on an arrogant lion.
Shi Li saw Zhou Ji leaving like this and his face looked a little unhappy: "You are shameless!" Who the hell is Zhou Ji? If it weren’t for his powerful parents, he would have died long ago!
Shi Li was angry for a while, but then he felt it was boring. He thought that Zhou Ji was mentally ill, so why should he bother with this guy?
Xiong Ye just likes to be kind and even let Zhou Ji live in his cave.
After Zhou Ji left the tribe, he went to study the surrounding plants as usual. Today he went a little further.
His aura almost blended into the surrounding environment, and the animals in the forest almost ignored him.
He walked around and suddenly found a bird of unknown species jumping around in the woods with a strong energy reaction.
There were some birds around the bird that looked similar to it, but none of them were as big as it. It held its head high and looked like an emperor among those birds. There were also a few birds chirping around it, probably trying to win its favor, but it turned a blind eye and looked at its own kind critically.
Zhou Ji enveloped the bird with his mental power.
The bird let out a sharp, terrified cry, but could not move, and all its feathers stood up.
Zhou Ji walked over and observed it carefully before retracting his mental strength and letting it go.
After being released, the bird let out an even sharper cry, flapped its wings and flew up, but it was too anxious and didn't fly well, and actually fell from the tree. Fortunately, it flew well quickly, and after a long cry, it disappeared in front of Zhou Ji in an instant.
Its fellow birds that were left behind looked around in confusion, and finally followed it chirping.
Zhou Ji continued to move forward.
While Zhou Ji was wandering in the forest, Xiong Ye was cutting trees.
Before Shi Li changed his mind, he was thinking about cutting more wood and making a few stumps to sit on or other things to decorate his cave, but when Shi Li changed his mind, he lost the mood.
But now...even if he doesn't become a partner with Shi Li, he can still decorate his cave better.
Xiong Ye chopped down some trees, then changed into his beast form and started to scratch and bite some trees. He got familiar with his beast form and strength. After practicing for a long time, he went to the water to catch fish. While catching fish, Xiong Ye suddenly smelled a different smell...
Kumano didn't plan to go far today. He originally thought that his prey might only be fish, but he didn't expect to catch a big frog in the end!
This big frog is completely different from ordinary frogs. This kind of frog is called the devil frog. It weighs about ten pounds, has thick armor on its back, sharp teeth in its mouth, and can jump high. It is very difficult to deal with and is usually impossible to catch up with.
When Kumano was a child, he suffered from this devil frog. Not only did his prey get taken away, but he was also bitten. Fortunately, he transformed into an animal form in time and escaped from the devil frog's mouth.
Then he found a way to catch the devil frog - rub poisonous grass on fish or other prey of similar size, and throw it towards the devil frog from a distance.
The devil frog is rather stupid and will habitually stick out its tongue to roll its prey into its mouth. Once it eats it, the prey will be poisoned.
When encountering a devil frog, it is not easy to have suitable prey and poisonous plants around, but he happened to catch a fish today and also saw poisonous plants!
Kumano caught the devil frog and happily carried it and a few pieces of wood back.
The devil frog tastes very, very good, and it is delicious even when eaten raw. He thinks Zhou Ji will like it.
When Xiongye returned, Shili was talking to his tribesmen in the valley.
Shi Li, who defeated Xiong Qi, is very popular among the people in the tribe. Before, everyone thought that he and Xiong Ye separated because Xiong Ye looked down on him, but now they don’t think so anymore.
"I separated from Xiong Ye because I wanted to have a child." Shi Li said to those people, "If it weren't for this, I would have fought back when Xiong Ye hit me."
Shi Li didn't want others to think that he was disliked by Xiong Ye.
It was obviously him who wanted to separate from Kumano!
When Shi Li said this before, not everyone believed it, but now that he said it, everyone believed it.
Shi Li was able to defeat Xiong Qi, so it is impossible for him to be powerless to fight back against Xiong Ye.
Thinking of this, when Kumano came back, there were bound to be people looking at him with sympathy.
As for Shi Li, he saw the devil frog in Xiong Ye's hand.
He has always loved eating devil frogs. Whenever Kumano caught devil frogs, he would give them to him to eat. He would even catch very hard-to-catch devil frogs just for him...
"Xiumano." Shi Li called out to Xiumano.
"Hmm?" Xiong Ye frowned and looked at Shi Li.
"This devil frog..." Shi Li wanted to exchange the devil frog with Xiong Ye. After his rebirth, he hadn't eaten any delicious food. He really missed the various delicacies in his memory.
"Zhou Ji!" Xiong Ye saw Zhou Ji at this time. He ignored Shi Li and immediately walked towards Zhou Ji: "Zhou Ji, I caught a devil frog and gave it to you to eat!"
When Zhou Ji heard Kumano's voice, he also saw what Kumano was holding in his hand. It was a toad about the same size as a modern dog?
