Chapter 124: A Sudden Turn of Events

Wang Hu looked across the wide quadrangle. Regardless if it were Su Ling and the group or the four tigers, everyone lowered their heads in submission.

Wang Hu’s hands rested by the side of his body, while Di Baijun had one hand behind her back. The two different waves of authority merged into one and weighed on everyone present.

A smile appeared on Wang Hu’s face, and he felt a sense of pride rising within him. Even though his organization was still bare bones and their strength was not strong enough…

This was Wang Hu’s beginning.

He took a glance at Silly Girl and said, “I am very happy to see everyone here today.

“Since you have now submitted to me, there is no need to elaborate much. Just remember the Tiger King rules and regulations and the law of nature—the strong get respected.

“I can give you higher status, more resources, and stronger power. However, you have to fight for it with your own strength.

“From now on, I will hold a martial arts tournament every year in March, and the winner shall receive more benefits.

“The first martial arts tournament will be two months from now.

“You will find out about the items that you can win very soon.

“Work hard cultivating! I hope that everyone will not disappoint me.”

The message was sent loud and clear to all the beings. Some were disinterested, but most were burning with ambition and excitement to battle.

Roar~!

Growls echoed after one another, and wild aggression filled the atmosphere.

The four tigers were no exception, and they showed even more aggression as they did not want to be defeated.

Wang Hu nodded to himself. He didn’t need to elaborate much to these strong beings of different species.

He only needed to provide a fair platform where the strong can compete, lay down the rules, and just do a bit more… and he would be able to subdue their hearts and make them his dutiful subordinates.

It was not difficult for him at all—meat from the dinosaur world, purified meat, spiritual energy that became denser, many partners competing and improving with one another, a safer environment…

These matters that did not seem significant, coupled with a fair platform where the strong could win respect, were able to sustain this simple organization of his for a long while.

He did not elaborate more, and he signaled with a gaze for Silly Girl to enter the cave with him.

They turned around and entered the cave. The quadrangle returned to its liveliness, but this time, every Transformation Realm being appeared warier and more serious.

In the cave, Wang Hu finally put aside his dominance after returning to their bedroom. He pulled Silly Girl to the bed with him and began to talk sweet-nothings to her.

Silly Girl’s face turned red, and she rolled her eyes many times at Wang Hu before he finally stopped, still feeling unsatisfied.

He hugged Silly Girl by the shoulders and said gently, “You must have worked so hard while I wasn’t around… did anyone disobey you? Tell me, Hubby will stand up for you.”

Di Baijun could not stop the jerk from calling himself ‘hubby’, so she could only pretend not to hear it. She raised her chin and said proudly, “They dare not disobey.”

The pride and confidence that she emanated made Wang Hu feel absolutely in love. He wanted to mold her into his body. He hugged her even more tightly, which won more eye-rolls from Di Baijun.

Wang Hu ignored it and shifted the subject to something serious. “Baijun, we have more than 10 subordinates now. We need to establish a hierarchy first. Like I mentioned just now, we can decide who is stronger through the martial arts tournament, and the winner will receive higher status, more power, and better rewards.”

Di Baijun replied seriously, “We can create a few positions first: for example, a patrol team, guard team, and a hunting team.

“The winner will be appointed as the team leader—that can be the hierarchy.”

Wang Hu nodded in agreement. It was what he thought as well. As their numbers increase, a system must be in place to ensure stability and rapid development.

His organization now was still relatively simple, and there were not as many people yet, so appointing a few leaders would be enough.

After deciding on the matter, Wang Hu became distracted. He looked at her flawless skin and was tempted. He said with praise, “Baijun, you are so smart. Here’s a reward.”

He proceeded to give a kiss on that flawless face, so hard that a sound was heard.

Di Baijun subconsciously elbowed Wang Hu. She glared at him, feeling embarrassed.

Wang Hu did not mind; it was only flirting to him.

He switched the subject. “Okay, then let’s discuss how many teams we should form?”

Di Baijun sneered at him and joined the discussion.

On the next day, Wang Hu and Di Baijun sat at the two seats at the front of the drawing room and held a meeting with all the Transformation Realm beings.

Including Su Ling and five tigers, there were 17 beings in total.

The additional tiger had just recently broken through. Wang Hu named him Jun Yue.

Among the other 11, apart from Ling Shuang who was a female panther, there was a male panther which Wang Hu named Bao Ying.

Xiong Hei, and another which Wang Hu named Xiong Zong, were of the bear species.

One was a wild boar, two were monkeys, one was a spider, one was a pangolin, one was a centipede, and one was a red-crowned crane.

All of them were big. However, they fit into the space with room left to spare as the couple had taken this point into consideration when the drawing room was created.

Wang Hu went straight to the point and said, “The things that I said yesterday, everyone should be clear about it by now. From now on, I want to create two new teams.

“One is a hunting team, in charge of going to the dinosaur world to hunt the required food that everyone needs. After which, I will purify the food and divide it among everyone.

“The second is a guard team, in charge of patrolling the vicinity, protecting the young, and guarding against bad things.

“Does everyone understand?”

Roar~!

“Yes, we understand.”

The beasts answered. The two teams were simple to understand.

“Good. Now, I shall appoint two temporary team leaders. The official team leaders will be appointed after the martial arts tournament,” Wang Hu continued to say.

Immediately, the beasts became nervous, and their breathing froze for a moment. The appointment might be temporary, but no one wanted to miss out on the opportunity.

“Wang Liang, you shall be the guard team’s leader. Jun Wen, you shall be the hunting team’s leader.

“Su Ling, you shall continue to be in charge of teaching, and Wang Shan will assist you. You will not be a part of those two teams.

“Wang Liang, Jun Wen, come up with a plan to show me, and then you can pick your team members,” Wang Hu instructed.

No one dared to oppose it, even if many of them felt a little disappointed. However, if they were smart enough, they would understand that this was normal.

Before the tournament was held, the leaders of the two teams would naturally be from the tiger species.

After giving his instructions, Wang Hu made them leave. He did not stay for long as well, and he went back to the bedroom with Silly Girl to cultivate.

In the afternoon, Wang Liang and Jun Wen came to see Wang Hu almost at the same time and showed their proposals.

In the drawing room, Wang Hu read through the proposals carefully and thought it was pretty well done.

He pondered for a moment and looked at Old Second to say, “For the guard team, you want the spouses of the Transformation Realm beings who are not yet at the Transformation Realm to join? Why?”

Wang Liang said seriously, “My lord, there are now seven spouses of the other species. If we do not find them something to do, it would become a problem.

“They are not weak by any means, and all of them had the combat power of a First Realm.

“They may not have activated human intelligence yet, but they were sentient. Just give them some time, and we can arrange for a Transformation Realm being to lead them in their patrol.

“At the same time, my lord… Wang Shan, Jun Yong, Jun Yue, Jun Wen, and I all want to bring our wife and children over, too.

“By then, there would be more beings who are not yet at Second Realm. We have to find something for them to do to avoid many inconveniences.”

Wang Hu’s gaze flickered. Old Second and Old Third bringing their wife and children over… he had forgotten about this matter.

He let the other species bring their partners over; needless to say, the tiger species should as well.

“You are right. Tell Old Third, Jun Yong, and Jun Yue, they have five hours to bring their wives and children over,” Wang Hu lightened his tone and said.

“Yes. Thank you, my lord.” Jun Wen immediately said.

“I have agreed to the guard team and hunting team proposals. We’ll also follow the assignment of the members mentioned in the proposal.” Wang Hu added.

It was not known whether they had telepathy or if they had discussed it beforehand, but there had been no overlap in the members’ names written down in the two proposals. All the Transformation Realms other than Su Ling and Wang Shan were accounted for.

“Yes, my lord.” Wang Liang and Jun Wen nodded and said.

“Lead the two teams well. Don’t disappoint me. You may leave,” Wang Hu said with a wave of his hand.

The two tigers complied and left the drawing room. Wang Hu looked at their backs with satisfaction as they walked out.

He chose the two of them as the leaders because he was confident that they were able to plan and organize the two teams well with their intelligence and that he would not have to worry over everything.

So far, he was satisfied with the proposals. He felt at ease, and he continued to focus on cultivating.

In the blink of an eye, half a month passed.

The place became even livelier. On the wide quadrangle, 15 or 16 little fellows were playing around chasing each other.

Even though only Big Treasure and Little Treasure had activated human intelligence, the other little fellows still showed a high level of sentience as a result of their environment. At the same time, they were still little and did not know aggression, so they were able to play with each other under Big Treasure and Little Treasure’s leadership.

Wang Hu named his new home ‘Tiger King’s Cave’.

At the entrance of the cave, there was a several-meter-long giant centipede and a hill-like pangolin.

They belonged to the guard team. They were in charge of guarding the Tiger King’s Cave, looking after the group of little fellows, and making sure that no accidents would happen.

There were a total of seven Transformation Realm beings in the guard team. Apart from Wang Liang, there were two monkeys, Wu Gong of the centipede species, Jia Shanchuan of the pangolin species, Zhu Zhi of the spider species, and He Dingtian of the red-crowned crane species.

Needless to say, their names were given to them by Wang Hu. Wang Hu thought that the names were good, and no one dared to refuse… so the names were decided.

Out of the seven Transformation Realms of the guard team—apart from Wang Liang—there were three beings on duty every day. Two of them guarded the entrance of the cave, and the other led the women of all the species to patrol the vicinity.

On the day that they were not required to work, they could spend it fully on cultivating.

By evening, the hunting team that set off at noon had returned. There were four figures in total. Behind each of them were carcasses of three to four dinosaurs carried on special equipment.

There were eight beings on the hunting team—Jun Wen, Jun Yong, Jun Yue, Ling Shuang, Bao Ying, Xiong Hei, Xiong Zong, and the wild boar.

There were four beings on duty every day. If it wasn’t because there were many dinosaurs in the dinosaur world and that they had special equipment…

Four beings were not enough to provide enough food for the huge number of different species living in the Tiger King’s Cave.

Even so, they barely met the consumption needs of everyone. There was a great lack of subordinates now, and even though it seemed that the beings on the guard team could be reduced and added to the hunting team…

Most beings on the guard team did not have enough strength and were unable to provide much help.

Therefore, after some consideration, Wang Hu decided to leave the arrangement like that for now. He believed that there would be more subordinates joining very soon.

More importantly, while the responsibility of the hunting team seemed easy, they had another mission—they also had to patrol the tiger species’ territory every month.

The mission was a tough one for the guard team.

Roar~!

When the hunting team brought the food to the quadrangle, a roar sounded from inside the Tiger King’s Cave and was spread to the forests all around. Then, Wang Hu appeared at the quadrangle by himself.

Soon after, beings from all over dashed into the quadrangle—the tiger roar was a signal of the start of mealtime.

The area in front of the Tiger King’s Cave was the most crowded every time it was time to eat.

A golden light shone over them, and Wang Hu began to purify the meat. The food was first portioned for Big Treasure, Little Treasure, and the little fellows’ share and then divided among the other beasts.

He would give enough food for the little fellows to feel full first before dividing the rest into almost equal parts to the other beasts.

Normally, if the food was not enough, he would let the tigers be 90% full and the other species be 80% full.

This was the way he gave his own species special treatment, and the others had not noticed.

Wang Hu and Di Baijun no longer ate dinosaur meat. The reason was simple: it was no use to them if the quantity was too little, but the hunting team would be unable to hunt enough food if they were to eat dinosaur meat.

After dividing the food, Wang Hu did not stay for long. He went back into the cave and cultivated with Silly Girl, or rather, to help her recuperate.

After coming back from subduing the Transformation Realms in the territory, he expressed that he has recovered from his injuries.

In the past half a month, he would spend half the time in a day helping Silly Girl recuperate.

However, the effect was dismal. They had almost exhausted all their pills. Wang Hu had been considering for the past few days if he should contact China and go to the Hu County alternate world again.

He gave it a brief thought but decided against it. It had been too short since the last time, and China probably had not identified suitable targets. He also did not want to appear too anxious.

Time passed quickly, half a month of peace and liveliness had gone by.

As the tournament approached and the Transformation Realm beings at the Tiger King’s Cave became more serious, a sudden call was received.

Li Aimin spoke gravely and rapidly, “Your Excellency, some of our people have disappeared mysteriously in the Hu County alternate world.

“We don’t know the details yet, but to be safe, we have retreated all our people and entered first-level combat readiness.

“Your Excellency, things may have progressed towards the direction that we wanted to avoid.”

In the room, Wang Hu’s brows furrowed, and his eyes were solemn.

Sensing that Li Aimin had paused, Wang Hu asked, “Cabinet Elder Li, what you’re saying is…?”

“Your Excellency, we have to err on the side of caution and plan for the worst.

“So, our Leader would like to speak with you personally,” Li Aimin spoke gravely.
