Actually, Black Tiger monster beasts were a species. Those usually seen were individuals scattered outside. Being alone, they preferred to claim mountains as their territory and didn't like sharing with others.
"This wolf pack seems to have a grudge with this tiger group. We seem to have very unluckily gotten involved in their war. We can only blame our bad luck. Now, what we need to do is observe from the sidelines, keep our distance," Xiaoyao said very seriously at this moment.
As Xiaoyao said, the current situation was exactly like this. The best approach was to keep their distance. Now that wolf pack didn't seem to be surrounding them anymore either, the wolf pack now had to deal with the tiger group.
"Human, you're right. I don't hope you can help me, I only hope you're not allies of those little cats," That white demonic existence spoke to Xiaoyao, while its wolf head kept looking ahead, not paying attention to Xiaoyao and the others behind.
"Rest assured, we won't help anyone. Even if you die, we won't help you," Xiaoyao replied very straightforwardly.
"..." Everyone was somewhat speechless. Was there anyone who talked like this? But speaking of it, they really wouldn't help. They couldn't wait for this wolf pack to be destroyed, because they had just been badly bullied by the wolf pack.
"That's best. If you don't interfere in our battle, even if I die, these brainless little cats won't harm you either, because to them, you have no value whatsoever," the monster beast said indifferently.
"Mm, understood. Actually, you could have just talked earlier. Why did you have to injure everyone? Peace should be peaceful," Xiaoyao continued.
...
...
"I couldn't be certain whether you would help the little cats, so naturally I disabled you all, removing your combat ability. If not for lack of time, you and this woman would be the same," the monster beast said, its white fangs visible even though its face wasn't toward Xiaoyao and the others, because the wolf's mouth was large enough.
To monster beasts, achieving their goal was most important. They didn't care whether you were severely injured or had aftereffects, not killing you was already quite good.
This was because of this demonic monster beast's presence, as it knew the Monster Clan generally didn't like killing people. Although they weren't afraid of killing, they avoided it when possible, because humans were too troublesome.
People feared Monster Clan, but Monster Clan also somewhat feared humans, because humans had great potential, large numbers, and most importantly, humans' growth cycle was much faster, at most a matter of decades.
Monster Clan was different, without several hundred years, it was impossible. This was still the fastest; some even needed thousands of years to grow up.
Therefore, if it came to attrition, Monster Clan couldn't afford it. Monster Clan knew this point, and their wisdom wasn't inferior to humans, how could they not understand these consequences?
"It seems you're really unlucky this time. Want me to read your fortune and give you guidance?" Xiaoyao said to those injured Heavenly Gate people at this moment.
"..." At this time, no one would think Xiaoyao could really read fortunes, they just felt Xiaoyao was irritating them.
"Alright, stop talking. Quickly help treat their injuries. The monster beast battle might affect us. Besides, the victorious side might still be disadvantageous to us," Dongfang Wunian said somewhat irritably.
She didn't know what to say about Xiaoyao today. At first he directly ran away, saying he'd get reinforcements. Then he came back, she thought his conscience had awakened, but it turned out he encountered an even more powerful group of monster beasts and had no choice but to return.
If not for the special circumstances, Dongfang Wunian really wanted to punch Xiaoyao twice.
"For these injuries, treat the elder first. Some people might be useless even if saved, might as well leave them here as bait,” Xiaoyao pointed at the blood-covered Cui Xu.
"..." Cui Xu fell silent. He wanted to beat up Xiaoyao, but at this time, he had no such ability. Moreover, he might still need the other party to save him.
"If there's no other way, we can only do this," Dongfang Wunian frowned. Although she couldn't bear it, she knew the current situation, saving one more person counted as one. The problem was that currently only Xiaoyao could save people, so there would definitely be times when he was overwhelmed.
"..." Cui Xu wanted to cry. He hadn't expected even Dongfang Wunian to say this. If even she said this, it meant basically the entire team agreed with this point.
"Alright, I'm starting. You all rest and recuperate first," Xiaoyao began treating the elder's injuries. At this time, Xiaoyao didn't use methods to completely heal him, but used the fastest speed to stabilize his injuries, using the shortest time to achieve maximum treatment effect rather than complete recovery.
This was first aid technique, not complete cure, just healing most of the injuries to allow free movement, preferably with some combat ability. This was currently the best treatment method.
First aid technique wasn't Xiaoyao's original creation either. On battlefields, military doctors used first aid to save people because they needed to hurry, with too many people requiring their treatment.
Xiaoyao's first aid technique, he himself had brilliant acupuncture skills plus Divine Farmer True Qi, so his first aid technique was more effective and took less time!
Soon, Xiaoyao finished treating the elder's injuries and said, "Elder, take some wound medicine yourself and circulate qi to heal further. I'm going to save others."
"What? So fast? Did you properly heal the elder's injuries?" Dongfang Wunian was very suspicious at this moment. Xiaoyao's speed was too fast.
"Wunian, Xiaoyao's medical skills are very brilliant, no need to doubt. His acupuncture techniques and Divine Farmer True Qi have already healed more than half my injuries. I can handle the rest with cultivation healing," the elder said at this time. Regarding Xiaoyao's speed, he was also surprised and even doubtful, but his own body told him his injuries had indeed improved greatly, he could even fight.
"Divine Farmer True Qi?" Wunian didn't seem to know Xiaoyao practiced Divine Farmer's Art.
"Yes, Divine Farmer True Qi. He practices Divine Farmer's Art, truly worthy of being the world's number one healing cultivation method with excellent effects," The elder nodded. He also didn't know Xiaoyao knew this. If they could return this time, he must investigate whose subordinate Xiaoyao was and why he hadn't known Heavenly Gate had such a person before.
Having brilliant acupuncture techniques and knowing Divine Farmer's Art, this was simply a treasure. If fighting others in the future, where enemies' injuries went untreated while their side enjoyed such healing, even if opponents were much stronger, they would still be trampled underfoot.
"Next!"
While the elder was thinking about these things, he heard Xiaoyao calling for the next person again. In such a short time, he had actually healed another person.
If this continued, treating the entire team wouldn't be a problem.
Everyone felt very surprised about this situation and also very happy. Who wouldn't want to recover? The happiest was Cui Xu, because he felt he no longer needed to be bait, Xiaoyao could completely heal him, at least allowing him to escape.
Cui Xu's idea was beautiful, and reality was also beautiful. Xiaoyao quickly healed everyone, including Cui Xu. He had just been joking earlier, who told Cui Xu to harbor ill intentions toward him?
"Human, your medical skills are very good, and your cultivation method is also very good," The snow-white monster beast was somewhat surprised by Xiaoyao's emergency treatment of everyone, not expecting these people to be healed so quickly.
Humans were indeed a very miraculous race, this was indeed incomparable to us monster beasts.
At this time, the battle between monster beasts had already begun long ago. Although neither side had reached fever pitch, the slaughter had reached an unforgettable level. The scene of flesh and blood flying everywhere, those tragic and heroic roars, left no doubt about the cruelty of this war.
Although the tiger group had advantages in both numbers and individual strength, they seemed inferior to the wolf pack in coordination. Therefore, the casualties on both sides weren't very different, and the tiger group's casualties were even greater than the wolf pack's.
"Why is there this battle?" Xiaoyao asked idly. At this time, he had given first aid to everyone. The rest was for them to handle themselves. This training team could definitely manage, the wound medicine they carried and preparations for emergencies could help them get through this crisis.
"For survival," The snow-white monster beast's answer was simple yet classic, and also most fundamental.
Battles between monster beasts weren't for power, but simply for food and habitat, simply put, for survival.
These two monster beast groups had significant conflicts over food and habitat, which was why they erupted in war. This battle wasn't the first time either, this was the accumulation of repeated battles, accumulated to this final decisive battle.
Therefore, it had to be said that Xiaoyao and his group were very lucky, they happened to encounter this grand scene.
Next, the snow-white monster beast stopped paying attention to Xiaoyao, just commanding the wolf pack from there. Under its command, the wolf pack sometimes separated, sometimes united, sometimes flanking from the side, sometimes attacking head-on...
This, this actually had the meaning of military tactics, this monster beast's intelligence was very high.
Watching the scene before him, Xiaoyao reached a conclusion: this snow-white monster beast not only had intelligence and could speak human language, but actually knew strategy and could arrange formations for battle.
Under the snow-white monster beast's command, the wolf pack arduously achieved victory, but only a dozen wolves remained, all injured, with their combat ability greatly affected.
