Chapter 8: 1 versus 3
Even from such a distance, he could still smell the unique and sweet scent of the female, and those blue-purple eyes were so beautiful that he couldn't take his eyes away.
He Qianqian also noticed his gaze and when she looked in his direction, Lingye quickly lowered his head and avoided it. His heart was beating uncontrollably and almost burst out of his chest.
That feeling is very strange.
Unlike in the past, this time there were many single males who gathered around involuntarily, looking at He Qianqian eagerly.
Some people still wanted to talk to her.
He Qianqian is a little socially anxious and lowers her head awkwardly.
Li Yan had a strong sense of territory and quickly took the female's hand and walked back.
A female was walking towards them, surrounded by three people. It was Bai Qiaoqiao.
"You just killed two rabbit beasts and you're showing off? You can only eat them for two days." Bai Qiaoqiao arrogantly blocked the middle of the road.
He Qianqian raised her head and immediately smelled that the three males beside her had already formed a pair with Bai Qiaoqiao.
His movements are faster and more efficient than mine.
"The amount of prey we get is our own business. Even if we starve to death, we will not ask you, Bai Qiaoqiao, for food." He Qianqian said loudly.
Not only Bai Qiaoqiao, but everyone around her felt strange and surprised by He Qianqian's toughness. They all looked at her, thinking that she looked prettier and stronger.
In the past, He Qianqian was timid and cowardly, speaking in a soft voice and never dared to speak loudly in front of others.
"Li Yan, with your mediocre kung fu, still wants to join the hunting team? Defeat my beastly husband first." Bai Qiaoqiao was very proud. She raised her chin to indicate her beastly husband.
Last night, I formed a bond with two third-level males and one fourth-level male.
It is precisely because of its strong physique that it can cope with the situation and crawl out of the nest at noon.
Knowing the strength of these three males, He Qianqian secretly worried that Li Yan would be bullied.
Someone in the hunting team said, "One-on-one is fine, but not one-on-three."
Everyone nodded. This is the rule. Fighting and sparring are common within the tribe. But you can't fight one against many on purpose, as it will hurt the harmony.
Li Yan said nothing, roared, transformed into a beast, and rushed towards a third-level orc behind Bai Qiaoqiao.
The beastman was in the form of a golden cat. Upon hearing the news, the two beast forms, the manul and the golden cat, started fighting in the open field.
Golden Cat Orc Prototype
Everyone put down their prey and watched.
There is a huge gap in strength between Li Yan, who had just been promoted to the second level, and the orc who had maintained the third level for more than a year. Where did Li Yan get the courage to challenge him in a one-on-one fight?
The two figures were fighting fiercely and quickly. Only two afterimages could be seen moving, and cat hair was flying all around them.
But the battle situation was not as everyone thought, Li Yan was bound to lose.
After a long fight, the manul became more and more fierce, while the golden cat became slower and slower, and gradually lost ground. Suddenly, the manul locked the golden cat's throat, pressing it under him, with its two fangs pressed against the cat's throat.
Click till.
There was silence for a long time before the warriors cheered.
No one expected that Li Yan could win.
At this time, another male rushed up, another third-level beastman, the Caracal Beastman. The Caracal Beastman was more than one size larger than the Manul.
Caracal Orc Prototype
The caracal is compact and petite, but agile and flexible. It often dodges left and right to consume the opponent's attack power and physical strength. Once it seizes the opportunity to counterattack, it will pursue relentlessly and fight more bravely.
The caracal still did not gain any advantage, but was defeated even faster than the first beastman.
He was pinned down by the caracal again and his throat was choked.
The two third-level beastmen retreated, and the fourth-level beastmen rushed into the battle circle.
This is an ocelot orc, a fourth-level primary, very powerful, with a difference of two levels between them. Everyone held their breath, fearing that Li Yan would be injured.
Ocelot Orc Prototype
Even the clan leaders, Xiaer and Li Yue, put down their prey and rushed to watch the fight.
Li Yue was tense, ready to rescue at any time.
Normally, among brothers of a tribe with a huge difference in strength, the higher-level one should not fight with the lower-level one with all his strength, because the higher-level one cannot judge the severity of the attack and may seriously injure the lower-level one.
But this time, it was Li Yan who initiated the challenge. He was the one who took action first, so he had to bear the consequences, even if the consequences were serious.
No one called for a stop at the scene.
Hundreds of rounds passed, but the winner was still undecided. The fourth-level orcs held back at first, but in the end they fought with all their might.
Compared with this fourth-level leopard cat, Li Yan's lack of tactical skills is increasingly showing its shortcomings, but fortunately, his body is flexible and his dodge speed is extremely fast, and his endurance is also quite long.
"Stop, stop here." Chieftain Charles shouted in a stern voice.
The two people in the field stopped fighting at the same time, and the cat hair on the ground was flying in clumps in the wind.
Everyone applauded and cheered, and the applause was all for Li Yan.
Males admire the use of force, worship heroes and the strong, and are generous in giving attention and respect to those with extraordinary abilities.
He Qianqian was no exception and clapped her hands vigorously. She was proud of her husband's shining moment.
Even the fourth-level orc who was fighting with him in the field patted Li Yan's shoulder in submission, then walked back to Bai Qiaoqiao.
With a slap, Bai Qiaoqiao slapped the fourth-level beast husband on the face and said harshly, "You are useless."
The beastly husband did not hide, and the other three beastly husbands did not speak. They lowered their heads silently and followed her away.
From the orcs' point of view, being slapped or scratched by their own females is not shameful at all, does not hurt their self-esteem, and is not a big deal.
The male-to-female ratio is 1:80. There are more than 2000 people in the Golden Cat Tribe, but less than 30 of them are females.
Those single male orcs who want to be slapped by females or wave their whips around may not necessarily find an opportunity.
For the beast husbands, fighting for their females is their responsibility and obligation. The three beast husbands went into battle and gave it their all, so it would not be shameful even if they failed.
On the contrary, it is not shameful for Li Yan to lose.
This is the end of a farce.
The clan leader came forward, his eyes full of admiration and surprise: “Li Yan, your endurance is good, but your combat experience is insufficient, and you are not worthy of the strength of the fourth level. You need to practice more in the future.
From tomorrow on, come to the hunting party."
Li Yan nodded respectfully, "Okay, thank you, Patriarch."
"Ah."
The hunting party began to cheer, welcoming the new members.
Every male orc begins to awaken his superpowers at the second level.
Presumably because Li Yan is young, he is the kind of talented male who will quickly reach the next level.
The couple left under the astonished gaze of everyone.
Perhaps no one will ever think that Li Yan is weak and cannot support his own female.
Lingye stared at their backs in a daze, hesitating whether to send more meat over in the evening.

"How dare you challenge me to a duel? You almost scared me to death." He Qianqian grabbed his ear and twisted it. It felt great, she was used to it.
There were scratches all over Li Yan's face and body, but fortunately they were all superficial and the wounds were not deep.
Li Yan was so happy that he bent down to let her twist it more smoothly, and said with great energy: "At that time, I felt that my supernatural powers were full and my whole body was full of strength.
Because I am Qianqian's first beast husband, I fight for Qianqian, so I cannot retreat."
"Okay. You win, and you're right."
He Qianqian was completely pleased by her husband. She let go of his ears and rubbed them.
Qianqian felt heartbroken but also happy about Li Yan's victory this time.
This was the first time someone cherished her so much, treated her like a treasure, and fought for her.
It felt wonderful.
The powerful pills exchanged for 100 points are very expensive, but totally worth it.
He Qianqian decided to trust the system from now on. She would plan carefully in the future and take on more tasks to earn more points.
Buy more upgraded powerful pills for your husband.
