I Became The Chief of A Primitive Village

Chapter 365: The Contest



*Splash splash…*

The rain continued to fall from the sky without any sign of weakening. While under the dense rain, the cow horned girl was still in a standoff with the Rain Snake.

After their first round of confrontation, both the girl and snake remained in their current stations, neither daring to make a rash move.

"Looks like I’ve encountered a tricky opponent!" Yan Hua pulled out two more spears from her back.

She was already calculating in her mind, hoping to resolve this as soon as possible. After all, she did not bring that many spears with her and certainly could not use them all on this one Rain Snake. If other Rain Snakes appeared right after dealing with this one, it would be quite difficult to deal with them without spears.

It had to be noted that after each use, the Beast Bone Spears had a chance of breaking or getting blunted. Thus, each had limited reusability.  So, she had to conservatively keep a few spears in reserve. She had already thrown two, and had ten remaining in total.

Originally, she thought two spears would be enough to deal with it, but she did not expect the opponent to be so troublesome.

*Hiss…* The Rain Snake was ready to launch its second round of attack, with its forked tongue darting in and out.

Its slender blue tail kept swaying, as if it would gather strength and charge forward at any moment.

It raised its body high, looking like a soldier ready for battle.

Yan Hua did not show any weakness either, gripping the two spears tightly in her hands, with one of them spinning.

Her red eyes were fully concentrated. With her footsteps increasing in pace, she was ready to meet the attack.

*Hiss hiss hiss…*

The Rain Snake charged straight at the cow horned girl with its mouth wide open.

Yan Hua, as if she had seen through everything, deliberately pretending she would throw the spear in her hand, but kept holding onto it.

Rain Snakes were intelligent creatures. At first, it thought the cow horned girl would throw the spear, so it made a turn in mid-air with its body, trying to dodge the incoming spear.

However, the cow horned girl had anticipated the opponent would dodge, so she did not throw the spear in her hand, but tightly held onto it.

She made a perfect turn to dodge the Rain Snake’s attack, then threw the spear in her left hand.

Of course, since the Rain Snake could dodge the first time, it could dodge the second time as well.

However, Yan Hua had calculated more than just this. After throwing the spear with her left hand, she threw the spear in her other hand as well.

The Rain Snake had focused all its attention on the first spear and did not notice the second one.

So, the second spear pierced straight through its head, and it fell to the ground, convulsing.

"You can calculate, but so can I!" Yan Hua’s lips curved upward.

Walking slowly to the Rain Snake’s side, to ensure it was not playing dead, she picked up the thrown spear and struck its vital point again to truly finish it off.

She put the large Rain Snake, which was as thick as a small calf’s leg, into her basket, looking completely satisfied.

It was worth noting that hunting such a large Rain Snake would make the Tribe take notice.

Although this type of Rain Snake was not a very strong beast, it was quite strong for Warrior Trainees.

"I wonder how Ah’Lan is doing? I should go find her and share the good news!" Yan Hua happily said.

*Step step step…* Yan Hua moved with light steps, quickly jumping from branch to branch, as this would give her a better chance of finding her target.

If she only moved on the ground, her field of vision would be limited, but from the tree branches, she could see much further. Moreover, while searching for the cat eared girl, she might also catch some Rain Snakes who were currently enjoying the rain.

"She must have caught many too. After all, she is exceptionally good at throwing spears." Yan Hua muttered to herself.

The cat eared girl’s spear-throwing ability was among the best in the Tribe, even Warrior Trainees could hardly compare to her.

She did not pursue power, but accuracy and force – almost every spear she threw could accurately end a beast’s life.

It was only half an hour later, after collecting two more Rain Snakes along the way, that she found the cat eared girl in another part of the forest.

"Ah’Lan, how are you doing?" Yan Hua continuously waved her hand.

Sha Lan turned her head at the sound and waved back, "I’ve already caught ten."

It was an impressive achievement – any Rain Snake she spotted could not escape her spear! Even those that were well-hidden could not escape once they showed even a tiny bit of their tail.

Yan Hua opened her red eyes wide in surprise and praised, "Wow, you’re amazing!"

This number did not exceed her expectations – it was within expectations that the cat eared girl could catch so many.

"What about you? You must have caught quite a few, right?" Sha Lan looked over with expectant eyes.

Yan Hua waved her hand and said, "I haven’t caught as many as you – only six in total, four less than you."

Sha Lan leaned over to look at the cow horned girl’s basket and unexpectedly discovered the large Rain Snake as thick as a small calf’s leg.

She raised her head in disbelief and asked, "Where did you find this one?"

Although she had caught ten, they were all average in size, some even on the small side.

This was the first time she had seen such a large Rain Snake, which shocked her.

"I caught it not far from here. It was quite fierce!" Yan Hua pointed in the direction where she caught the Rain Snake.

Even now, thinking back to the scene from earlier, she still felt excited and wished she could experience such scenes every day.

Yan Hua was not one to be afraid of battle, because besides training herself, she could also gain resources though such hunts.

Moreover, the Tribe’s Totem Warriors were secretly watching, so there probably would not be any problems.

"Your one is worth five or six of mine, Ah’Hua, you’re really amazing!" Sha Lan sincerely praised.

Seeing her friend being so capable made her feel very elated, She also hoped to become stronger herself.

"Am I more amazing than you? You’ve already crushed me in terms of numbers." Yan Hua’s fighting spirit was ignited.

Although the hope of winning first place was not very high, given that the cat eared girl was there, Yan Hua still had to compete for it!

"Let’s keep working hard together then. There’s still plenty of time before the deadline. Who knows who’ll be first?" Sha Lan encouraged.

"Good! In that case, let’s both compete for first place!" Yan Hua said.

"I hope I can catch such a large Rain Snake too." Sha Lan smiled.
