When the Grandmaster of the Wu Kingdom was born, you had already arrived in He'an Town. It was a relatively peaceful town, but a ferocious tiger had recently taken up residence in the nearby mountains, posing a danger to passersby.
So when you walked into He'an Town, calmly ordering some local delicacies at a restaurant (the Qinghe Gang couldn't possibly post a wanted notice there anyway), not long after, the mayor came to ask for your help.
[When a warrior doesn't deliberately try to hide it, his gaze, aura, and mental state are completely different from those of an ordinary person. It's like a wolf king among huskies. Anyone with a little bit of insight can see the difference.]
You hesitated for a moment, then, after confirming that there were more than just you among the tiger-slaying warriors and that the reward was quite generous, you accepted the triggering mission.
[Afterwards, you meet your five temporary teammates, all of whom are second-rate warriors. One of them runs a school in town, one lives here, and the remaining three are recruited from nearby.]
[There are no top-tier warriors. After all, this is just a small town, not a big city like Qingcheng. Moreover, top-tier warriors are all well-known figures. If it doesn't cost a lot of money, the mayor would have to sell his blood and flesh to afford it.]
Listen to your teammates. That tiger is incredibly ferocious, capable of stirring up the wind as it blows across a mountain. It's truly a tiger king. Not counting its tail, its body is over ten feet long, and it could swallow half a person in one gulp. If you weren't included, there would be six of them in total. Two or three second-rate warriors alone would be no match for it.
"A tiger that's a dozen...three meters and three inches long?" Yun Shou was a little confused. He thought it was just an ordinary tiger, about two meters long (not counting the tail). That kind of tiger was considered quite large on the Earth in his previous life, weighing nearly two hundred kilograms.
A weight of 200 kilograms is much heavier than that of an ordinary person. Coupled with his innate strong muscles, bone marrow, and body structure, it would be difficult for him to be defeated even by a second-rate warrior. So what about those who are ten feet tall?
The weight is probably close to one ton!
It is an absolute ferocious land beast. If it is not a fat tiger, it is very likely to have the power to lift up a small car!
"You're a bit confused. The mayor said they were hunting a tiger. Do you think the average Siberian tiger, with a head and body length of two and a half meters, is overestimating that? The best you can say is two and a half meters? Those giant hunting beasts are over four meters long, including their tails."
[You and your helpers are confident you can defeat a four-meter-long tiger without getting hurt. But against a "tiger king" with a head and body length of ten feet and a total length of five meters, you know that among the six of you there will be injured or even killed.]
But they didn't care. Although you felt the danger, you also had no regrets - because now you have experienced more than ten years of hard training, gang fighting, and are Yunshou who has been baptized by swords and blood!
[He's not that guy who gained strength for nothing after two simulations, who hasn't experienced any hardships, and whose mentality is still that of a lazy and useless person!]
Yunshou: "Who the hell is this cricket?"
"I fish every day (except today), and the ups and downs I've experienced are nothing like you... nothing like what you encounter in the simulation..."
Halfway through his words, he still had some dignity and stopped talking.
"Damn it, the simulation didn't even mention whether you had a gourd or not, so I can't use that to criticize your character."
[Hahaha, but my real body isn't as happy as you. This little Chu Nan from two lives doesn't know the joy of sex.]
You both win!
"Fuck, Ladybug is so disgusting!!!"
Personal martial arts skills are quite private. You don't know the fundamental martial arts of your five temporary teammates (another name for martial arts, which feels more relevant now that the "Martial Arts Assimilation Foundation" setting has been established). However, during the past ten days of familiarization training, you have gained a general understanding of their situations.
[Second-rate warriors can be roughly divided into three stages: the first is the birth of internal energy, the second is the unification of energy and strength, and the last step is the exchange of blood and solidification of flesh.]
[Two of your five teammates have not yet united their strength, two are in the process of uniting their strength, and one is in the process of exchanging blood and solidifying flesh.]
[In terms of martial arts cultivation, none of them are as good as you, who have completed the blood transfusion and flesh coagulation, reaching the limit of a second-rate warrior.]
[However, your Water Dragon Technique is only slightly higher than the average martial artist, and its depth is only at a minor level. Other martial artists have excellent innate foundations, and with the addition of more advanced and stronger fundamental martial arts, their strength is comparable to yours.]
[In other words, among the six, your strength is tied for first place with another young man named "Ye Hongqi." The other four are somewhat weaker than you two.]
[After more than ten days of familiarization and sparring, you have not only gained combat experience, but also strengthened your coordination. You will no longer attack independently in battle, but will instead fight together.]
After a day and a half in the mountains, a bloody smell wafted down the wind. The six-man team stood high on a mountain and looked down. They saw a valley filled with bones, blood, and a large amount of rotting flesh.
One of the teammates nearly vomited. Although he was a second-rate warrior, he had clearly never seen such a bloody scene before. At most, he'd only ever sparred with others, severing an enemy's throat with a single sword strike.
[Rustle—behind your backs, the weeds rustle loudly, a little harshly. Teammate Ye Hongqi calls out, "Be careful!" Suddenly, you notice: that giant, over five meters long, spotted tiger has appeared behind you, only a few dozen meters away!]
You have a glimmer of understanding about the Tiger King's appearance: the bloody scent of the valley has reached you on the wind, and your "human scent" has also been carried by the wind, attracting the Tiger King!
The battle was about to break out. The first to strike was the middle-aged martial arts hall master wielding a spear. Then an arrow flew out and pierced the tiger king's fur.
[Although its fur is very valuable, you don't have the ability to control the damage.]
You and Ye Hongqi followed closely. You held a steel sword that had been tempered hundreds of times, and with your mastery of the Overlord Sword Technique, you forcibly blocked 30% of the Tiger King's attack!
The remaining 70% will be handled by the other three. The middle-aged man with the spear, Ye Hongqi, and the other man with the sword will hold them off for you. As for the remaining two, one will provide archery support from a distance, while the other will attack the weak points behind the Tiger King.
[With the combined efforts of the six of you, you were able to suppress the Tiger King for a while, and its injuries gradually increased and expanded.]
But suddenly, the Tiger King ignored his injuries and was slashed by you, leaving a foot-long bloody mark. At the same time, he lashed out with his tail. With a snap of his iron-like tail, he broke the lumbar vertebrae of the attacker behind him, sending him flying. He screamed and gradually died.
The expressions of the remaining five of you changed drastically. The Tiger King seized the opportunity, bravely taking his injuries and lunging again. The swordsman, who was over thirty years old, had half of his shoulder and neck bitten off in one bite, and he also died tragically on the spot.
"Don't do that. We finally got the Novice Village." Yun Shou clenched his fists nervously.
Don't choose to leave Qingcheng, or you will end up living a shorter life.
That would be hilarious.
