Live Strong in the Wilderness-Chapter 164: The Fight Breaks Out

They won’t leave, and Lu Ke and I can’t leave either.

If we recklessly cross the jungle to leave and get discovered, and those beasts chase us, Lu Ke and I are definitely done for.

Forget about beasts of this size, even if there are 11 wild wolves, Xu Yi and Lu Ke wouldn’t stand a chance.

"These beasts probably see this place as their habitat now, Xu Yi and Lu Ke are trapped."

"For those beasts, this is like their dining area, just lurking at night waiting for animals to come for water."

"These beasts are completely at the Overlord Level, Xu Yi and Lu Ke are so unlucky."

"I wonder what Xu Yi plans to do now, it’s so urgent."

"It’s better to sneak away from the other side while they haven’t noticed."

"Have you considered which direction they would go, what if they’re discovered, or get lost, wouldn’t that be just as dangerous?"

"We can’t just stay holed up in the cave and starve to death, can we?"

"Starving to death is unlikely; don’t forget Xu Yi still has 101 points, which can exchange for a lot of supplies, right?"

"But what problem does that solve, as long as those beasts are here, they’re trapped here. How long can they hold out?"

"The best outcome is that these beasts leave soon, so that Loli Ke and Xu Yi would be free."

"It’s really nerve-wracking, can they really get out of this situation?"

"Xu Yi is pretty daring too, just squatting on the edge of the jungle observing, isn’t he afraid of being found?"

"Xu Yi has always been bold; you’ve seen his live streams long before today."

Xu Yi already used his Stealth Skills, so he’s not too worried about being discovered.

What he worried about was Lu Ke, whether she’d get anxious and come running over.

Lu Ke indeed was worried about Xu Yi, even though she hadn’t seen the beasts Xu Yi described, she could feel how terrifying they were.

However, she didn’t recklessly go looking for Xu Yi.

She had a lot of confidence in Xu Yi.

Going to him now would only cause trouble for him.

What she could do was stay at the cave entrance, ready to assist Xu Yi at any time.

As time passed, Lu Ke’s heart grew calmer.

No movement meant the best news.

This indicated that Xu Yi hadn’t been discovered or clashed with the beasts. He must be observing them.

Within Xu Yi’s sight, several beasts suddenly started attacking each other.

Xu Yi noticed that the ones attacking each other were the ones who had just bathed, and they were larger.

"Males, they must be males, and they’re likely fighting for mating rights," Xu Yi muttered to himself, with a glint in his eyes.

If that’s the case, then the loser would be driven away.

This means the number of beasts will decrease.

If their way was like dogs’, then it’d be as if standing there for Xu Yi to easily chop them.

But that’s unlikely; they’re more like felines rather than canines.

The attacks grew more ferocious.

Watching this, Xu Yi felt a chill inside.

These beasts were like enlarged tigers, their strength and explosiveness were terrifying.

If encountered in the jungle, you absolutely can’t confront them head-on.

The chance of getting swatted to death is high; best to avoid them entirely.

"One was driven away, excellent, these beasts are fighting over mates."

"The battle is really intense, it’s so thrilling, blood is flying everywhere. What a pity, they didn’t kill each other."

"Killing them is not possible, that would lead to their species’ extinction. Now it seems these animals are solitary, gathering here just for reproduction."

"Very likely, this is their breeding ground, and Xu Yi and Loli Ke showed up at the wrong time and ran into them."

"Many solitary animals are like this, that explanation is quite reasonable."

"Another one was defeated, and its leg was injured too. Eh, if it was broken, Xu Yi would have a chance to kill it."

"Having Xu Yi chase to kill it? Wow, that’s quite something."

"For Xu Yi, their departure is the best outcome."

"Currently, there are three female beasts, possibly three males staying. Six total, still very dangerous!"

"Many animals’ mating processes take many days, the larger the animal, the more so. Who knows if they’re the same."

"Look, another one was defeated, leaving two, then the fight should end."

"So intense, it’s making my blood boil. When can Xu Yi single-handedly challenge such beasts, that would be even more exciting!"

"Single-handedly? You must be out of your mind; if you don’t need your brain, donate it to science."

"Why isn’t it possible? When Xu Yi first arrived on this planet, he was weak too. Now he’s formidable, single-handedly taking on giant pythons, so there’s no chance? Every challenger is growing stronger, I think he will have such strength in the future!"

"You all think it’s not lively enough, huh? Still talking about single-handedly? Isn’t staying alive enough, must you send someone to their doom?"

"They just treat this show as a game anyway; do they care about the challenger’s life or death?"

"Truly admire Xu Yi, he can maintain his position without moving for so long."

"Really only six left, about to see those provocative scenes."

"Is this an entry to Animal World channel? It’s not even spring now, is it?"

"Oh wow, so violent!"

"Not appropriate, really inappropriate!"

"Things are difficult now, Xu Yi and Lu Ke are really going to be trapped."

After watching for a while, Xu Yi turned around and went back to the camp.

Upon seeing Xu Yi return, Lu Ke immediately sighed in relief.

"Xu Yi, how is it? Those beasts?" Lu Ke asked since Xu Yi didn’t seem eager to enter the cave.

"They’re mating, five have been driven away, six remain by the lake," Xu Yi explained and took a few sips of water.

"So what do we do now, leave from elsewhere?" Lu Ke thought they still had a chance to leave, as the forest was large, taking a longer route should work.

However, today wasn’t suitable for leaving; there wasn’t enough time.

"We’ll see tomorrow, if they leave, we won’t need to take a detour. We’re not familiar with this area yet, try to take the original route; otherwise, returning to the camp will be troublesome," Xu Yi glanced at the time, it was already four o’clock.

"Alright, let’s stick to that, do you want to come up?" Lu Ke looked at Xu Yi for a while.

"No need, I’m going to continue observing the situation," Xu Yi intended to monitor until nightfall, considering how terrifying the beasts were, he couldn’t just stay in the cave waiting.

Lu Ke didn’t object, she knew Xu Yi wasn’t someone who could sit still.

At this moment, a loud roar suddenly echoed, like a thunderclap.

Xu Yi and Lu Ke, both turned pale.
