At the same time, watching this battle, they actually comprehended many things. Everyone more or less gained some insights, while Xiaoyao watched the entire time and seemed to comprehend even more. However, he could usually zone out and comprehend at any time, so what was a rare opportunity for others was just ordinary for him.
However, Xiaoyao wouldn't consider it unnecessary just because it was ordinary. This was about accumulation, accumulation time after time.
At this moment, everyone thought this matter was about to end, but unexpectedly, a sudden change occurred. A roar that could shake heaven and earth came forth.
"Roar!"
A black tiger charged toward the snow-white monster beast with a storm-like momentum. This black tiger not only came with magnificent presence, but its size was twice that of ordinary black tigers. The wind sound brought by its body made people understand its power.
This black tiger wasn't polite either, it directly charged forward to kill the snow-white monster beast. Monster beasts wouldn't have polite inquiries or ask about reasons. If they wanted to kill the other party, they would immediately act.
The black tiger wanted to kill the wolf pack ahead and tear the snow-white monster beast to pieces, because the previous tiger group had been eliminated by the wolf pack.
"Black Tiger, isn't it a bit late for you to come out now?" The snow-white monster beast charged forward, blocking the black tiger's attack and protecting the remaining wolf pack members without letting the black tiger harm them.
The snow-white monster beast hadn't acted before, not to show off, but because of this black tiger before it. It had been defending against this black tiger all along, knowing only it could resist this black tiger.
...
...
"You detestable snow wolf, always using schemes. I'll tear you to pieces and let you know that before absolute strength, your little cleverness is useless," The black tiger roared, then swatted a claw toward the snow-white monster beast, the snow wolf it mentioned.
Monster beasts named things simply, as long as it reflected their characteristics!
The snow wolf dodged. If hit by the black tiger, it would definitely be injured!
Battles between monster beasts, especially those fighting in beast form, often compared speed and strength, while attacks and evasions became simple.
But if you thought simple meant easy to handle, you'd be gravely mistaken. You'd discover how difficult these simple attacks were to avoid, and if you tried to block them directly, you'd find the force unbearable!
If the elder were to fully recover his strength now and fight either the black tiger or snow wolf, he might not gain any advantage and could even suffer losses, with a tiny possibility of losing his life.
"Xiaoyao, which one do you think will win?" Dongfang Wunian came to Xiaoyao's side, watching the monster beast battle before them.
"In terms of strength, the black tiger has the advantage, but battles don't rely solely on strength. It's hard to say. The snow wolf has a chance, but not a big one, unless..." When Xiaoyao reached this point, he paused, looking ahead with a somewhat grave expression.
"Unless what?" Dongfang Wunian continued asking. At this time, the snow wolf was also paying attention to Xiaoyao's side, wanting to hear opinions on how it could achieve victory.
Regarding the battle situation, the snow wolf was quite clear. It knew winning would be somewhat difficult, even hard, because this black tiger's strength exceeded its own.
If not for this black tiger's habitual arrogance and disdain for bullying the weak, refusing to join the recent battle, the entire wolf pack would have been destroyed long ago. Victory wouldn't have belonged to the wolf pack.
Fortunately, it was that kind of tiger. Otherwise, it would have absolutely no chance of winning.
"This white wolf sacrifices some of itself and seizes the opportunity to bite the opponent to death," Xiaoyao said with a smile.
"Sacrifice itself? If that doesn't work, wouldn't it be even more disadvantageous?" Dongfang Wunian felt this method was very unreliable.
"So it depends on opportunity, this opportunity must be grasped personally," Xiaoyao smiled. "Let's just watch their battle. Battles between monster beasts of this level are very rare, if not nonexistent.”
"Mm," Dongfang Wunian nodded. She didn't want to waste this opportunity either, focusing wholeheartedly on the battle between the two monster beasts, attacking, dodging, blocking. These moves were all the simplest, yet contained a kind of martial way, the monster beasts' own martial way.
Xiaoyao stopped talking at this moment too. In his mind, a set of martial techniques was beginning to emerge, martial techniques from the two monster beasts before him. These martial techniques didn't appear from nothing. In this world, there were many martial techniques imitating animals, each with their own characteristics and power.
But how could those animals' imposing manner compare to these two monster beasts before him? No, it should be said the black tiger's imposing manner, unstoppable, with a king's domineering aura. The snow wolf had another kind of momentum, cunning and fierce, understanding survival principles, retreating when necessary, fighting desperately when needed.
Soon, a set of martial techniques with kingly aura emerged in Xiaoyao's mind, while another set of fierce martial techniques also appeared. Quickly, these two sets of martial techniques began to gradually simplify, fewer and fewer moves, but increasingly distinct characteristics. Finally, they became two moves, two boxing techniques.
One move was incomparably mighty and unstoppable, while the other was incomparably fierce and unwavering.
These two moves seemed similar, but the difference was that the first was used when holding advantage or at least not at disadvantage, while the second was used when at disadvantage, killing a thousand enemies while injuring eight hundred of oneself. Simply put, it was for desperate fighting.
"Awoo..." While Xiaoyao was evolving techniques, the battle continued and had entered its final stages. Would might survive to the end, or would fierceness survive?
Perhaps both had certain probabilities, but before them, the fierce snow wolf finally gained the chance to live. It utilized one of the black tiger's pounces, knowing it would be injured, choosing to fight desperately and forcibly biting the black tiger's neck, while its own chest was clawed into a depression by the black tiger.
This situation wasn't just mutual destruction, but almost complete annihilation.
"Awoo..." The black tiger's cries grew weaker and weaker until it fell in a pool of blood. But its eyes told everyone it wouldn't be lonely, the snow wolf would soon accompany it below.
"Awoo..."
Those injured wolf-type monster beasts, seeing the snow wolf's current state, wailed sadly.
"It's alright. Without the black tiger, you won't be in danger. My death is worth it," The snow wolf said to those wolf-type monster beasts, looking very weak.
At this moment, not only were monster beasts wailing for the snow wolf, but even Dongfang Wunian and others felt sorrow in their hearts, thinking the snow wolf was great.
"Wonder if this black tiger has an inner core," Xiaoyao picked up a small knife and began dismantling the black tiger. At this time, his behavior was quite despicable, because everyone was in a sorrowful atmosphere while he ran off to dismantle someone else's spoils of war.
What made people even more speechless was Xiaoyao saying to the snow wolf, "That white wolf, if you die, give me your corpse. I'll handle it properly..."
Damn, are you kidding? The person isn't even dead yet and you're asking for their corpse, you're too direct!
"Human, you're very interesting, but I don't want to be dismembered," the snow wolf said indifferently.
"That's really too bad. Your fur is too beautiful. If made into clothes, my boss would definitely love it," Xiaoyao said with a smile...
At this time, everyone overlooked Xiaoyao saying "my boss," thinking Xiaoyao just meant boss, that he wanted to sell the snow wolf's fur.
"But it doesn't matter. There are so many black tiger pelts here, equally valuable. You definitely can't handle so many. I'll help you clean them up," Xiaoyao said. While speaking, he had already dismantled that black tiger almost completely.
"Damn, this tiger penis is really big. Very good, I'll take it back to make wine. Wonder what would happen if I gave Young Miss this tiger penis wine..." Xiaoyao processed all of the black tiger's corpse, throwing the materials into a sack and placing it on the cart.
He also found the black tiger's inner core, something everyone wanted, a good thing. Monster beast inner cores were supplements for greatly advancing cultivation.
"How do you plan to handle this inner core?" Xiaoyao asked the snow wolf.
When Xiaoyao asked this question, everyone felt very surprised, not expecting Xiaoyao wouldn't directly pocket it but would ask the snow wolf's opinion.
Actually, Xiaoyao hadn't planned to swallow the snow wolf's spoils of war. However, he knew monster beasts would only take inner cores as spoils, destroying everything else, so he very straightforwardly helped dismantle them.
For the most important inner core, he still asked the snow wolf's opinion.
"Black Tiger's inner core, I want one of them to swallow it and advance. I hope the wolf pack has strong protectors," the snow wolf said.
"Then handle it yourselves. You should leave quickly, staying here, you're also a tempting target." Xiaoyao threw the inner core to the snow wolf as if throwing something very ordinary. This seemed to make people understand his character was very noble, he wouldn't take such advantages, no matter how precious.
"I understand. Goodbye... we probably won't meet again..." the snow wolf said, looking at Xiaoyao with some gratitude, because Xiaoyao had just been reminding it that staying here, not to mention other monster beasts, even those nearby people might be tempted and could act to snatch the inner core at any time.
This inner core wasn't just the black tiger's, but also the one in the snow wolf's body. Monster beasts at their level definitely had inner cores, and these inner cores contained power that could let people quickly break through strength levels, naturally making people envious.
