Chapter 91 Always Have to Try

After a hearty meal, Si Shuo was fully refreshed and listened to Gong You talk while washing up.

"It's like a place where males and females gather, so it's naturally a large-scale matchmaking event. If they hit it off, they'll get married right away."

However, the spring hunt in Dongye Forest has some differences.

Beast City is quite large and cannot be completely controlled by three or five families and tribes. Therefore, it is necessary to recruit some powerful orcs to help manage it.

"My dear child, since we're going to Guangshou City, let's discuss taking turns participating in the spring hunt and see if we can secure any positions in the city."

Today, Si Shuo was wearing a light pink fleece jumpsuit dress, with her hair in a bun and secured with a matching scrunchie hair tie.

Even without makeup, she is already a porcelain beauty, and the baby fat that the men have given her adds to her soft and cuteness!

Her eyes shifted slightly: "What positions are available for tribute travelers, and what are the selection criteria?"

"Will there be any consequences if you take turns participating in the spring hunt because you're protecting me?"

Their family wasn't short of crystals, but having a position in the city, even just as a gatekeeper or patrolling soldier, was like having an extra layer of insurance.

Moreover, they are all highly capable, and who knows, they might make a name for themselves.

Gong You pinched her bun and chuckled, "It's alright. They're conducting an assessment every four days, with groups of ten going into the forest to see our survival skills and teamwork. The number and level of the ferocious beasts we hunt are all factors we'll be assessed on."

We can teleport back at any time, so we plan to send two people each time, and into different groups, which will increase our chances of being selected.

Our goal isn't high, but at least one of the four males should be selected, right? We can't let our good boy down.

Si Shuo also became nervous. In her previous life, due to health reasons, she was rather laid-back and never participated in any of the brutal elimination rounds in school or society.

"How many orcs do they need? And how many people will participate?"

Stepping out of the animal-skin bag, Si Shuo munched on corn and continued to ask questions out of curiosity.

Zhile sat down next to her and served her a bowl of milky white fish soup, with a few specks of oil floating on top and some scallions. It tasted exceptionally delicious.

"There are quite a few, after all, the spring hunt in the northwest has just ended, and many orcs have been killed."

Although the combat strength of the orcs in the Central Continent is generally high, and the four of us are not among the top, we are definitely not to be underestimated.

The safety and stability of Beast City depend on the protection of many orcs. Such orc soldiers have certain requirements for combat level, but the four of us are all above level eight.

Even if we are selected, we might just be ordinary soldiers.

Si Shuo smiled and nuzzled his shoulder: "It's amazing that you were selected, not to mention you're all so young. Who knows how high you'll go in the future!"

I don't object to you wanting to strive for success, but safety comes first.

Several males nodded solemnly in agreement.

Ji Liang chuckled and hissed, "Don't worry, Xiao Shuo Shuo, we're all sober. We participated in the Spring Hunt selection to make our family's life more stable and to protect it well."

If you lose your life, everything else is meaningless!

Si Shuo turned to look at Yi Mei, who was playing with the baby: "Yi Mei, are your beast husbands also going to participate in the spring hunt selection?" Yi Mei nodded and smiled and said: "Yes, we have many beast husbands, but only Rong Zhi, Pan Zhou and Yue Heng are qualified to participate."

The three of them split into two groups; since they had the opportunity, they should give it a try.

Yi Mei already has seven beast husbands, but the three she can truly boast about are the ones she acquired in Nanye City and on the way to Puchang City after becoming a Holy Mother.

With powerful males ahead to compare themselves to, Koba and his three companions felt a sense of urgency and trained hard whenever they had time.

Pan Zhou had fought in the arena and was experienced in combat, while Yue Heng was a traveling merchant with extensive experience fighting ferocious beasts. They took turns training the Jielu brothers.

In just over a month, Koba and the others had all broken through one or two levels!

This time, Zhile, Gongyou, and Yueheng participated together. They carried very simple things, just a small animal skin bag containing some dried meat and a water bag.

Si Shuo couldn't help but pull Zhile and Gongyou into the animal skin bag, taking things out while carefully explaining:

"This is a resurrection pill. As long as a person dies within the time it takes to boil two pots of water, it can snatch the person back from the Beast God."

This is an upgrade pill. It's best to hold off on taking it for now. Each orc can only take it three times, and the effect decreases with each use. That's why I haven't taken it out yet; I wanted to save it for when you're having trouble leveling up. However, if you encounter any special circumstances, a single upgrade pill might be the key to turning the tide.

These are animal hide masks, speed talismans, thunder talismans, puppet talismans... Although I can replicate them all, we shouldn't rely too much on external methods; we should only treat these as life-saving measures.

The two nodded earnestly.

Of course, each of them was also equipped with a crossbow. The crossbows were so finely crafted that Si Shuo could only replicate one a day.

The more items the females brought out, the more serious the males' expressions became.

No secrets stay hidden forever; the differences among the young females will eventually be exposed, so they must become stronger as soon as possible!

They didn't have any means to rely on before, but now that they have these, they are even more motivated and can fight hard to compete for them.

After four days apart, Zhile and Gongyou each lingered with Sishuo for a few minutes before reluctantly joining the crowd to register.

Si Shuo was used to the company of his four beast husbands, and now that two of them were suddenly gone, his heart felt half empty.

Ji Liang put his arm around the dejected little female's shoulder and chuckled, "Little Shuo Shuo, in four days Xu Chi and I are going on a spring hunt too. You can't be thinking about the beastmen who left, but ignoring the beastmen right in front of you, can you?"

Si Shuo nestled in his arms, her little face slightly furrowed: "Ji Liang, once we arrive in Beast City and settle down, will half of you also go hunting in the border region?"

Ji Liang gently stroked her hair: "Beast City stipulates that females must have two beast husbands with good combat strength by their side, and half of the other beast husbands who can go out to work and hunt will participate in the security maintenance of the border area."

The beast soldiers who maintain order in the city have the same job nature as this one; they are all contributing to the safety of the entire beast city in the Central Continent.

In other words, as long as one of us four males becomes a beast soldier, we won't need to be separated from Little Shuo Shuo for long periods of time.

Of course, later on, they had to figure out how to deal with being separated from their female companions on their own!

Hearing this, Si Shuo breathed a long sigh of relief. Sure enough, once you arrive in the Central Continent, where everything has developed, there are many more rules and regulations.
