Beast World: A Fragile Beauty Blessed with Many Children-Chapter 121 - 120: Teaming Up to Grind Monsters

After breakfast, Zhi Le and Gong You headed to the afternoon training session to catch up on the tasks they had missed over the past two days.

Xu Chi was going to participate in the Spring Hunt tomorrow, so he stayed with Si Shuo today.

Ji Liang, on the other hand, went to fight in the arena to earn High-level Crystal Stones for his little female. This time, he didn’t deliberately suppress his strength and immediately won three matches in a row.

The faces of the Qingxi Tribe’s Beastmen darkened, especially their second-in-command, Lang Guang.

He knew his previous plot had been exposed. Wang Cha had been captured, her superpower crippled, and she’d been expelled from Dongye Middle Square. Si Shuo’s Beast Husbands were counterattacking!

Amidst the envious, jealous, and hateful gazes of the many Beastmen, Ji Liang accepted the deed to a house with a courtyard and declared with a laugh:

"Truly worthy of the wealthy and powerful Qingxi Tribe. You know how to win, and you know how to lose.

I, Ji Liang, may not be the most talented, but I am rather clever. I’ve spent the past few days observing everyone’s fights and have gained considerable experience.

I’d like to see how many matches I can win in a row.

I hope you will all bear witness and see just what kind of grand prizes I can win from the Qingxi Tribe."

His words made the crowd stare with wide eyes. Now, it wouldn’t be so easy for the Qingxi Tribe to find an excuse to eliminate him.

Moreover, once he became famous and won a hoard of prizes, the Qingxi Tribe couldn’t touch him for a while. Otherwise, word that they were sore losers would spread like wildfire. How could they ever host an arena again after that?

It wasn’t worth it for the Qingxi Tribe to throw away the reputation they had built over many years for a nobody like him.

"Tell our guys to play rough. Heh, does that cold-blooded Snake Beast really think he can disrespect all the males of our Qingxi Tribe just because he won a few matches?

It’s perfectly normal for fighters to get crippled or even die in the arena!

Besides, a Snake Beastman’s vital spot is incredibly fragile, and our Qingxi Tribe’s Beastmen are famous for their strength.

No one’s a Divine Beast who can control their strength perfectly at all times. Little accidents are bound to happen!"

Seething, Lang Guang gritted his teeth and gave the order in a low voice to the Beastman beside him.

Previously, Ji Liang had used Crystal Stones to cut the line for the arena every time. After each fight, he would rest for a bit, which gave him the perfect opportunity to observe the defending champion’s moves and mentally simulate counter-strategies.

After two days and two nights of this, even though he hadn’t challenged every single champion, he had a clear understanding of each one’s strengths and weaknesses.

Ji Liang himself was someone who loved adventure and would stop at nothing to achieve his goals. It was this ruthless streak that had allowed the Dark Crow Trading Team he led on the Southern Continent to become a force that no one dared to provoke.

Now, he was genuinely furious. He had also just advanced to a Level 10 Beastman, so he would use these champions to properly hone his Combat Power.

His Twin Brothers at home were all incredibly powerful; he couldn’t be the one to drag them down.

Besides, he might form a Traveling Merchant Team again in the future. When he was away, he couldn’t just teleport home every time he ran into danger, leaving his family to deal with the mess. ’That kind of thinking must be nipped in the bud.’

He was accustomed to dealing with trouble on the spot. Even if he couldn’t resolve it immediately, he would bide his time and plan, waiting for the perfect moment to land a single, decisive blow!

’Therefore, my strength cannot be lacking. It absolutely must not. For me, a life of ease is a slow-acting poison, and I refuse to be the frog boiled in lukewarm water.’

Besides, there was no other way for a Beastman to advance; they had to push their Combat Power to its absolute limit in dangerous situations.

The more they resented him, the more it became a trial that made his very body tremble with excitement!

After all, they couldn’t gang up on him. They had to face him one by one...

Hang He periodically relayed news from the arena.

Si Shuo felt a mix of heartache and amusement. ’Ji Liang is usually such a steady and mature male. How could he dare make such brazen proclamations in front of the Qingxi Tribe?’

Hearing the news made Xu Chi’s hands itch. He also wanted to go beat the Qingxi Tribe’s Beastmen to a pulp to vent his little female’s anger.

He didn’t get his chance, but when Zhi Le and Gong You returned from training, they had a meal and also went to the arena to join the excitement.

Normally, the Beastmen of the Qingxi Tribe were extremely difficult to defeat, and very few challengers could achieve a winning streak. But the crowd watched as Ji Liang and Gong You won three, then five matches in a row. Even Zhi Le, who was only Level 8, dared to take the stage. After just five or six fights, he advanced to Level 9 and could even win an occasional match.

Zhe Heng, who had already taken the Bone Marrow Cleansing and Vein Cutting Pill, advanced from Level 10 to the Eleventh Level. He himself came from a trader background and was a pangolin beastman with formidable defense and respectable attack power. After familiarizing himself with the champions’ fighting styles and with Gong You’s professional guidance, he could win one out of every two or three matches. He even managed a three-match winning streak, earning another small courtyard and two acres of land for Yimei!

The Beastmen in the audience couldn’t help but begin to doubt themselves. ’Have we been thinking of the Qingxi Tribe’s Beastmen as too terrifying? Is that why we’ve been fighting so timidly?’

’In any case, the Beastmen of the Qingxi Tribe have good control and won’t kill their challengers. It really is an excellent training ground.’

’If we fight with reckless abandon, maybe we could actually win?’

And so, the Beastmen of the Qingxi Tribe distinctly felt that the challengers coming up to the stage were growing more and more reckless. This wild fighting style rendered the techniques they had once relied on and taken pride in useless, forcing them to brace themselves and fight in a flustered panic.

Each challenger had their own unique style, giving them no time to figure it out. A single fight was now more mentally and physically exhausting than three fights had been previously.

What had been an arena tournament for the Qingxi Tribe to rake in a fortune had now transformed into a place for everyone to improve their Combat Power. More and more Beastmen were advancing right there on the stage!

As a result, the challengers fought with ever-increasing ferocity, while the Beastmen of the Qingxi Tribe grew weary from the constant battles, their stamina severely depleted.

They went from switching out their champion every five rounds to every three.

In just a single day, the Beastmen of the Qingxi Tribe couldn’t take it anymore. Watching Twelfth-level Crystal Stones being handed out one after another, with the occasional Female Saint being promised away, and an average of one or two small courtyards lost per Beast Hour—the pain made their eyes well up with tears!

They wanted to call a halt to it, but given the frenzied state of the challengers, the crowd would have been ready to pounce and tear them apart, accusing the Qingxi Tribe of being sore losers.

But if they didn’t stop, the Qingxi Tribe had already given away ten percent of its projected income from this year’s Spring Hunt. And as their own tribesmen’s morale plummeted and their injuries mounted, this trend would only intensify.

They could afford to lose the Crystal Stones, but Female Saints and small courtyards were rare resources. They couldn’t afford to keep giving those away!

And so, as night fell and the Beastmen who had been hunting on the fringes returned to Dongye Middle Square, making the arena even more boisterous, the Qingxi Tribe received a message from their clan. It said that Rogue Beasts had broken into their territory to snatch females, and the tribe had suffered considerable casualties.

They had to return to provide support. Thus, after handing over a sufficient number of quest Crystal Stones to the Jin Family of the Lion Clan from Guangshou City—the organizers of this Spring Hunt—they departed in a great hurry!

Ji Liang even gathered a group of Beastmen to see them off at the main gate. Watching the thundering departure of the Qingxi Tribe that made the very earth tremble, he asked with a look of great concern, "Did we go a little too hard on them? Do you think the Qingxi Tribe will hold a grudge?"

The Warrior from Guangshou City’s White Wolf Clan, who was standing beside him, replied, "How could they? We barely won anything. All our winnings combined don’t even add up to what the Qingxi Tribe would have made in a single day of hosting this tournament..."
