Chapter 594: Chapter 577: Rapid Growth
The next morning at dawn, right in front of the tribe’s gate, Mu Ying arrived as scheduled, blocking the Tiger Clan Beastmen who were just about to go hunting, "Let’s do it again!"
As soon as she finished speaking, she transformed into a Big Brown Bear and beckoned to the Beastmen with her fingers.
Beastmen: The bear that got away yesterday is delivering itself to us again!
With a whoop, a group charged at her.
Mu Ying learned her lesson from the day before and managed to hold out a bit longer than yesterday.
After all five animal forms were defeated, she patted her butt and ran off, "I’ll be back tomorrow!"
Beastmen: (╯‵□′)╯︵┻━┻
They cursed as they ran towards the woods, but no one responded.
After an exhausting fight yesterday that lasted half a day without getting any meat, and with a few clansmen sustaining minor injuries, what was more important was that it disrupted the hunting. Many clansmen didn’t eat their fill yesterday, and today they had to go hunting on an empty stomach.
They thought they would finally get to eat the food that escaped yesterday, but the meat that was almost in their mouths flew away again!
"This won’t do anymore! We can’t always be tripped up by her," said Taiger, the leader of the Tiger Clan Beastmen. "If she comes again tomorrow, we will only leave two teams to deal with her, and the rest will go hunting as usual!"
There are a total of 20 hunting teams in the tribe, each composed of young and middle-aged Beastmen, about ten per team.
The next day, at the same time, Mu Ying showed up again.
This time, no matter how she provoked them, most of the Beastmen ignored her, leaving only twenty Beastmen behind while the rest disappeared into the woods.
Mu Ying was not dismayed but rather delighted. It was like a pillow for a dozing person; she felt her combat ability in her Wild Form was too weak. Facing hundreds of Beastmen most of the time, she was mostly overwhelmed and even if she learned something, the progress was slow because she was defeated too quickly.
Now, with only twenty Beastmen, her pressure was much reduced, and she had more chances to adapt.
The battles, which ended in two or three hours the last two times, lasted for the better part of the day today, but of course, she was defeated in the end.
Feeling greatly enriched by today’s battle, Mu Ying was very happy. Even her parting words were a bit "gentler": "That’s it for today, let’s meet again tomorrow!"
She walked away nonchalantly. The two teams of Tiger Clan Beastmen who had fought with her for most of the day and were still hungry were nearly bursting with resentment.
Not only did they gain nothing, but they were also injured. Dragging their heavy steps, they returned to the tribe.
If that guy comes again tomorrow, they won’t serve her!
When the hunting teams came back, they expressed their grievances.
So the Clan Leader of the Tiger Clan Beastmen decided to have the teams take turns dealing with her.
"Also, stop chasing after her once she transforms into a Leopard, she runs too fast, we can’t catch up. Since we can only watch her escape in the end, don’t waste your energy from the start. The teams that stay behind should guard the tribe well and keep her away from the tribe, just ignore her as long as she doesn’t come close!"
The next day, when Mu "Big Brown Bear" Ying came to provoke the tribe guards again, she noticed that the Beastmen had become somewhat listless, which was not acceptable!
"Roar (come on)!"
Tiger Clan Beastmen: "aidh@ (scram)!"
They weren’t falling for the same trick again after wasting their energy for nothing!
Fighting also consumes energy; they got hungrier faster. Fighting without getting any meat was a complete loss!
If it weren’t for the fact they couldn’t catch her, they’d beat her to death and eat her!
Mu Ying: "..."
So irritable, if they won’t come over, she might as well go to them.
After taking a few steps forward, the Tiger Clan Beastmen couldn’t hold back anymore and rushed up to fight her.
But as soon as she was forced to retreat repeatedly, moving away from the tribe somewhat, the Tiger Clan Beastmen dispersed once again, continuing to guard the entrance of the tribe.
Then Mu Ying advanced again, the Beastmen forced her back but didn’t bother her any further, having tested this several times, Mu Ying understood, she needed to charge into the tribe with all her might to provoke their fighting desire.
After all, the Beastman Tribe was right there, it couldn’t run away! So she kept up her "suicidal" efforts.
Of course, each time before slipping away after a fight, she never forgot to remind them that she would come back, until they submitted.
Mu Ying did this relentlessly, every day she showed up, and her fighting skills grew rapidly.
At first, two teams of Beastmen could easily repel her, she hardly had a chance to fight back.
Within a few days, she was able to counterattack.
It could be said that Extraordinary Perception was a great help to her, allowing her to accurately observe her opponents’ movements and intuitively perceive their next actions, learning at an incredibly fast rate.
Once she became familiar with fighting using her animal form’s Innate Weapons and body characteristics, the battle mode between her and the Beastmen teams quickly changed.
From being overwhelmed, gradually the Beastmen teams had to exert considerable effort to repel her, and then, she managed to defeat a few.
Beastmen were tough-skinned and resilient, they took a beating well, she only controlled herself not to cripple them, but if she could injure them, she would try to injure them as much as possible.
Every additional injury meant facing the entire Beastman Tribe would be a bit easier for her afterward.
A little over half a month later, two teams of Beastmen could no longer stop her, nearly allowing her to break into the tribe where there were younglings!
So, the teams preventing her from approaching the camp increased from two to four each day.
Mu Ying was once again overwhelmed in fights, but this time she grew faster, after a week, they could no longer hold her back, only to increase the force again.
She came every day, would fight until half-dead then run off, and the next day she would be fully recovered, but even though the Beastmen were physically robust, injuries did not heal in a day or two back to prime condition.
The Tiger Clan Beastmen were simply overwhelmed and helpless against her.
Since their tribe was right there, when someone came knocking, they had no choice but to respond.
Six teams of Beastmen rotating to guard against her, also nearly let her break into the tribe, finally overwhelmed the Beastmen.
By now, every Beastman team had been harassed by her four or five times, and everyone was wounded.
Although Mu Ying still hadn’t posed a fatal threat to them, it was enough to make them vigilant.
That night, the Tiger Clan Beastmen called a major meeting.
"Clan Leader, we can’t keep going like this, although she hasn’t intended to annihilate us and so far everyone’s injuries have been healable, it has severely impacted our hunting. Everyone has been eating only about two-thirds full for nearly a month, with accumulating injuries; the situation is becoming increasingly hopeless, if this continues, she might not even need to defeat us, we’ll starve first," said one.
"Yeah, the younglings have lost a lot of weight these past days, if this continues, they won’t grow well, and how can they catch prey then? That would be the end of our tribe!" added another.
"Doesn’t she always say when she comes that submitting could ensure our bellies are full? I wonder if that’s true?" another pondered.
"Are you going to submit to such a frail youngling?" prompted another query.
