Surviving in the Beast World with a System-Chapter 184: Go Back and Train Yourself

Wu Yue looked at the Witch and the Clan Leader. "The cubs are weaker. It’s easy for them to get sick in this kind of weather."

She didn’t bother arguing with Ye Duo. The only ones who could truly make the decisions here were the Witch and the Clan Leader.

Without a hint of hesitation, the Witch and the Clan Leader said in unison, "We’ll build for the families with cubs first."

Ye Duo frowned immediately. "But Witch, Clan Leader, if the other tribe members find out..."

Before she could finish, the Witch cut her off with a wave of her hand. "So what if they know? Any tribe member so weak they have to compete with little cubs doesn’t deserve any priority."

Ye Duo opened her mouth, then immediately fell silent.

The beastmen nearby who had just been echoing her sentiments promptly shut their mouths.

A slight smile touched Wu Yue’s lips, a flash of smugness in her eyes. She was overjoyed.

Seeing Ye Duo’s miserable state instantly made her feel better.

"Clan Leader, Witch, I won’t take part in the selection process. Just bring the chosen people to my place once you’re done.

I have some cubs at home with only Qingcao to look after them, so I’ll head back now."

Upon hearing this, the Witch and the Clan Leader looked at Wu Yue. "Is everything alright with the cubs?"

Wu Yue smiled and shook her head. "They’re fine. After a good sleep, they’ll be back to their lively, bouncing selves."

The two leaders laughed heartily and nodded. "You’ve done very well, Yue.

Alright, hurry back now. We old folks won’t keep you any longer."

Wu Yue nodded and left, not sparing Ye Duo a single glance the entire time, which infuriated her to no end.

Feeling the dagger-like glare on her back, Wu Yue walked with a bit more spring in her step.

But to her surprise, the one who came to select people was Yuan Lang...

...and behind him, those two doofus tigers, Teng Qian and Teng Kun, marching completely out of sync.

When they saw Wu Yue, both of them looked a bit off. Wu Yue shot them a questioning glance, but they quickly averted their sneaky eyes.

This, however, only made them look more suspicious.

’Could I have done something embarrassing that those two saw?’

THWACK!

Wu Yue couldn’t help but rap herself on the head. ’How could a person of such high moral character like me possibly do something embarrassing!’

System: "My dear Host, I think you might have some misconceptions about yourself."

Wu Yue snorted. "I feel like you’re starting to revert to your old ways. Is your allowance getting too big?"

System: "..."

’What the heck... What kind of world is this?’

’Can’t a guy even speak the truth these days?’

"Of course not! What I meant was, in this day and age, you can’t get ahead by being open and honest.

You have to be thick-skinned, shameless, full of wicked ideas, and able to put on an act. Only that kind of person can truly thrive and become as popular as you, Host."

The words were barely out of the System’s mouth when...

"The Host has deducted ten of your points. The System is advised to continue improving, provide better service to the Host, and strive to earn a larger allowance."

The mechanical voice rang out. The System, which had just delivered what it considered to be perfectly-executed flattery, almost burst out crying with a "WAAAH!"

"You bit... My dear Host, why did you deduct my allowance? *Sob sob*!"

Wu Yue snorted. "Consider it a lesson. Go do some self-training."

The System was dumbfounded. "I’m already a perfect system. Why would I need something as dull and boring as training?"

Wu Yue gave a dry laugh. "Train your flattery skills. I wasn’t pleased with what I heard."

With that, she waved a dismissive hand. "Alright, I’m busy now. You are dismissed."
