Chapter 1036 In this beast-world novel, the queen's puppy is fierce and ruthless! 28
Elder Humu quickly appeared before Miaomiao and told her that the bell was the sound of the start of the competition.
Miaomiao nodded, gathered her clansmen, and followed Elder Humu to the sacred tree. The survival competition was about to begin in half an hour...
As for the things he wanted to discuss with Hu Lie before, they seemed insignificant in the face of the competition.
At the very least, the signal he sent was that even if the Jiaolong clan wasn't allied with them, they wouldn't be enemies of the Tiger clan. Miaomiao subtly revealed this to the warriors on her side.
Once all the orcs had assembled, the heavy tolling of the bell finally ceased. Then, before Miaomiao could react, a huge crack suddenly appeared in the trunk of the sacred tree, large enough for two people to enter.
The tree hollow glowed with a faint green light, like an entrance to another world.
Even though everyone knew about the wonders of the sacred tree and the sacred land from the elders' explanations, they were still speechless with shock when they actually saw this scene. It was only under the guidance of the elders left behind by each race that the warriors entered the tree cave one by one.
Soon, the tree hole slowly closed right under the noses of the clan leaders, as if none of the strange things that had happened before had ever occurred.
But the remaining orcs, whether chieftains or guards, all stayed outside the sacred tree and waited.
No one doubted the fairness of the holy site, yet the tension in the air grew increasingly intense.
It wasn't until the afternoon sun scorched the earth that the opening of the sacred tree suddenly reopened. The first to be "spit out" were two warriors of the Azure Eagle Clan. They had already transformed into their original forms, their faces covered in blood, and their brown eagle bodies bore deep wounds that exposed bone, clearly indicating that they had suffered severe injuries.
Immediately afterward, a warrior from the Tiger Clan was also transformed into his original form and sent out. His yellow tiger skin was covered with scratches, but he was conscious and his injuries were not as severe as those of the two previous Eagle Clan warriors.
Subsequently, three warriors from the Python Clan, one from the Thunder Leopard Clan, and one from the Bear Clan were also sent out.
On the contrary, none of the warriors from the Jiaolong clan and the Rock Sheep clan were thrown out.
"How is this going?
How come not a single wounded member of the argali tribe has come out? Were they eaten inside?!
The chieftain of the python clan stood up abruptly, frowning, his tone full of doubt.
But no one answered; the python warrior who could answer it was seriously injured and unconscious.
Over the next two days, the atmosphere outside the sacred tree became even more tense. Three more members of the Tiger Clan were thrown out, and the Python Clan had now lost ten members...
In short, apart from the fact that none of the argali tribe members were eliminated, which was quite unexpected, the tiger tribe performed the best.
Of course, the Jiaolong clan was never part of the discussion among these clans.
Anyone with a brain knows that this means the Rock Sheep Clan and the Jiaolong Clan reached some kind of agreement, an agreement that even required swearing an oath before the Sacred Tree. But no matter who asked their clan leader or the guards, they all kept their promises, and no one told them what it was.
As the competition drew to a close, the tribal chiefs, who should have been focused on waiting for the results, began to secretly cooperate.
After all, this is truly profitable. The argali beastmen, who were originally supposed to be last, should now be ranked in the top two, as expected. This is the benefit of cooperation.
As they talked, some of the orcs began to bring up the issue of intermarriage, which they had previously opposed, saying that it was a terrible rule that damaged relations between the different races.
Before Jiao Bang could even put forward his own proposal, the chieftains of the Thunder Leopard Clan, the Azure Eagle Clan, and the Python Clan collectively suggested intermarriage. Jiao Bang seconded the proposal, Miao Miao nodded in agreement without a second thought, and the chieftains of the Black Bear Clan and the Rock Sheep Clan also nodded in agreement.
And so, the very next second after the chieftains all agreed to allow intermarriage, the chieftain of the Thunder Leopard Clan went to the chieftain of the Bear Clan and declared that he wanted to marry the eldest daughter of the Black Bear Clan chieftain, who was even stronger than the male beastmen. He even said in a grand manner that only by "uniting the strong can we resist the encroachment of other clans."
The bear clan chief didn't want to get involved in things he didn't understand, but his daughter was indeed a bit too strong, capable of killing a leopard clan beastman with a single punch, and she didn't like their own clan. Since the Thunder Leopard Clan was so sincere, it wasn't out of the question.
The Python Clan wanted to communicate with the Jiao Clan, but after the communication failed, they communicated with the Thunder Leopard Clan. After a fight between them, they finally bypassed the Azure Eagle Clan and also went to find the Black Bear Clan.
One daughter is one thing, two daughters are another. The Black Bear Clan Chief had only two daughters in his life. One was incredibly strong, capable of killing an orc with a single punch. The other was even more formidable; once, she captured a snake-clan orc who had launched a sneak attack and punched it until it was deformed and then torn apart...
Since none of them minded, what did the Black Bear Clan Chief have to mind? Thus, his second daughter, who could tear snakes apart with her bare hands, also found a home.
Miaomiao was unaware of the ensuing farce; she had already returned to her stone house to take a nap.
For a moment, everyone was stunned. They never expected that the usually simple-minded black bear tribe would become the most popular group for intermarriage.
Only the Eagle Clan, having neither reached an agreement with the Tiger Clan nor been able to find a partner among the Rock Sheep Clan, was blocked by the Flood Dragon Clan. They could only watch helplessly as others formed marriage alliances while they themselves remained single.
The unwilling Eagle Clan Chief thought of his handsome son, but this time, he secretly sent two clansmen to see the Tiger Clan Chief to try to discuss a marriage alliance.
But who would have thought that the two tribesmen hadn't even reached the Tiger Clan's territory when they were ambushed by a dark figure and instantly beaten to a pulp, scrambling back home.
At this point, the Eagle Clan realized why neither the Thunder Leopard Clan nor any other clans had given up on intermarrying with the Tiger Clan, a clan with a queen who was exceptionally beautiful.
It's not that I don't want to, but as soon as I have this idea, I'll be beaten to a pulp before I even see the person, and my personal safety won't be guaranteed.
Not only that, every clan leader who had this idea would be ambushed in the middle of the night and taken to their bed. A short blade would be placed directly above their neck. In the darkness, no one could see the other person's face, but the voice was so sinister that they would never forget it for the rest of their lives.
"Stay away from the Tiger Queen. If I find out you've ever laid a hand on her again, I'll chop off your head and feed it to the dogs!"
Believe me, you're not the first orc I've threatened.
Whether for the sake of their own pride or for other reasons, the tiger clan was left behind in this intermarriage.
No one knew who the dark figure was, but they knew that their own lives and the future of their tribe were very important. They simply looked at Miaomiao with an unconscious sense of awe.
Only Jiao Xi stood in the shadows, wiping the dust off his hands, his eyes cold and piercing.
She belongs to him, from head to toe. How can he be coveted by these things?
