He gritted his teeth, gripped the sword hilt tightly, flipped his body upside down, twisted his legs, and stomped down hard on the ends of the arrows.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Plosch……\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The seventy-five-centimeter steel arrows, previously embedded only halfway, were driven completely into the beast’s eyeballs by the force of his feet.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Roar…………”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The beast shrieked in agony, its body convulsing violently, blasting all Shiyu  people—including Yue Feng—away in all directions.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Boom…………\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>All Shiyu  men were thrown to the snow; apart from Yue Feng, nearly all of them spat blood.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Don’t close in—use bows from afar! It’s at its limit!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yue Feng suppressed the surge of blood in his chest and shouted to the others, then drew his longbow first, firing rapidly at the wounded beast, now staggering and fleeing deeper into the bamboo forest.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The others, hearing his command, forced themselves to stand, scattered, and drew their bows, unleashing a storm of arrows at the beast.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Blind and disoriented, the beast’s movements became erratic; it kept crashing into trees along its path, and within less than ten breaths, it was finally worn down by the relentless steel arrows from behind.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Boom…………\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Its massive body collapsed onto the snow with a thunderous crash.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Huh…………”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yue Feng’s grim expression finally eased as he exhaled deeply.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Captain, are you alright?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“It’s finally dead—quick, help the injured!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Yuwen Sizheng was right—this Bai Pi’s vitality is terrifying.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Its hide is monstrous—my great sword struck the same spot at least five times before I finally broke through.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“If we hadn’t hit its eyes first, we might not have taken it down.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Captain’s final move was crucial—those two arrows drove deep into its skull, yet it still exploded with such force, flinging all of us away.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>………………\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yue Feng stood still, breathing heavily for over ten breaths, ignoring the others’ chatter, and quickly walked over to the three men thrown by the Bai Pi’s paws.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Yuankun, how are you?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>All three were barely sitting up; Li Yuankun, the least injured, was applying Golden Wound Powder himself, while the other two, more severely wounded, had swallowed Blood Sore Pills.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Li Yuankun recovered first; after gasping for a long while, he looked up at Yue Feng, waved his hand, and smiled: “I’m fine—just got a scratch from its claw on my shoulder. Nothing serious.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The other two, after swallowing the Blood Sore Pills and waiting a long while, spoke weakly:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“My bones are cracked—I’ll need three or four days to heal.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I’m worse—two ribs in my chest are broken; I’ll need ten days.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hearing their severe injuries, Yue Feng’s expression darkened with guilt: “It’s my fault—I shouldn’t have been so reckless!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Captain, please don’t say that—mapping new territory earns contribution points, let alone hunting cold beasts. We all came willingly; it has nothing to do with you.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Li Yuankun was the first to rebut Yue Feng; the others quickly chimed in.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“That’s right—we all came for the contribution points.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“It’s not your fault—we all agreed to come.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“What’s reckless about it? The arrow bamboo forest is Da Xia’s territory—we came first to scout ahead for others.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>…………\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hearing their words, Yue Feng’s eyes softened slightly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As the second wave of hunters formed in the camp, Yue Feng knew the Shanhe Team’s strength was far from formidable. Yet nine days ago, when he heard Xia Chuan say he was choosing a leader for the Jinggu outpost, he was tempted.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As one of Da Xia’s earliest members and the one who had followed Leader Xia Hong the longest, Yue Feng held himself to the highest standards.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Last month, during the Hunting Department’s reorganization, his base strength hadn’t reached twenty thousand jin—he missed the first wave of teams and was forced to join Xia Chuan’s Yunjiao Team, a failure that haunted him for a long time.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He trained like a man possessed; the moment he broke past the twenty-thousand-jin threshold, he immediately reported his intent to Xia Chuan, left the Yunjiao Team, and founded the Shanhe Team.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Since its founding, the Shanhe Team has existed for less than a month. Even without comparing to the first twelve teams, among the other eleven teams founded simultaneously, their strength still ranked low.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Under normal competition, Yue Feng’s chances of winning were slim.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After much thought, he chose a risky path: he proposed to his nineteen team members that they advance at a pace of one kilometer per day.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He didn’t hide his goal—he told them outright he was competing for the Jinggu outpost leadership. To his surprise, they all agreed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He wasn’t surprised that Li Yuankun and a few other early Da Xia members supported him—they had long-standing bonds with him. But that even the other Digging Realm members agreed stunned him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>These Digging Realm members were all newcomers from Wu Yuan Mountain, with no personal ties to him—some had never even met him before. Yet after hearing him speak, they chose to back him. Yue Feng was deeply moved.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That emotion brought pressure—and his actions became even more reckless.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Today, they had already surveyed twenty-nine kilometers deep.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That pace should have secured victory.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But Yue Feng still wasn’t confident—he feared other teams had gone deeper, so he decided to push two more kilometers.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This reckless move, of course, brought trouble.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Bai Pi.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Bai Pi that Yuwen Tao had warned them about—they had run into it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The very cold beast lying on the ground now.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yuwen Tao had said cold beasts were rare in the arrow bamboo forest, and nine out of ten were Bai Pi; the Jingxian Camp had long lacked cold beast meat precisely because Bai Pi were so hard to hunt.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Low-grade Bai Pi required his own team to hunt; mid-grade Bai Pi demanded the strength of Yuwen the Guardian or He Yuanhun—both Cold-Resistant Level experts.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With Yuwen Tao’s words fresh in mind, when Yue Feng’s team encountered the Bai Pi, his first instinct was to retreat—surveying wasn’t hunting, and the Shanhe Team had already met this month’s minimum quota. There was no need to target the hardest prey.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But the Bai Pi had targeted their team.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After a single glance, it began following them. Yue Feng led them in zigzagging detours, but couldn’t shake it off—it even trailed them toward the forest’s edge. He had no choice.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The arrow bamboo forest was now one of Da Xia’s resource zones; every night, many Digging Realm laborers came here to harvest bamboo fibers. If this Bai Pi reached the outer edge and injured someone, disaster would follow.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So Yue Feng decisively ordered his team to engage.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The result was what they now faced.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Though they had successfully hunted the Bai Pi, casualties had occurred.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The injured weren’t just Li Yuankun and the other three thrown by the paws—all sixteen others, including Yue Feng himself, bore wounds, though minor.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“This Bai Pi, according to Yuwen Sizheng, is still low-grade. No wonder he said mid-grade Bai Pi require Cold-Resistant Level experts—this thing is terrifyingly strong!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Li Yuankun had also stood up and walked over to the Bai Pi. After a moment of quiet awe, he suddenly brightened and asked Yue Feng:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Captain, has the contribution point value for Bai Pi been set yet? I’ve never seen another team bring one back—could this be the first Bai Pi our camp has ever killed?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If this is the first one we kill, its value will be huge!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Camp Supply Department has clear rules: any first kill of a cold beast, whether low or mid-grade, will earn a tenfold contribution point bonus after verification.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Upon hearing this, everyone’s expressions immediately brightened.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Please... you... collect_(!)\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Seven days ago, Deputy Director Si’s Yunjiao Team killed a mid-grade Blue Moon Spirit and reportedly earned 35,000 contribution points—each member got over a thousand.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I know about that. Five days ago, Director Si’s Longwu Team also killed a low-grade Frost Lightning Monkey and netted over 3,000 points—that’s equal to a mid-grade cold beast’s contribution value.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"If this White Bear is truly the first kill, it’s worth at least three or four hundred points—we could easily earn three or four thousand!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Hahaha, great!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>…………\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing the others grow more excited, as if the contribution points were already in hand, Yue Feng shook his head and finally spoke up:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"What are you thinking? Does our team even have the strength to make the first kill? If we hadn’t known this beast so well, do you think we could have killed it head-on today?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The others froze, recalling how Yue Feng had clearly understood the White Bear’s behavior during the hunt—their excitement immediately faded.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"This month, Luo Yuan’s HuBao Team already brought back a White Bear—back then, our Shanhe Team hadn’t even been formed yet!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>HuBao Team, Luo Yuan.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hearing this, everyone’s expressions sharpened, and they all nodded slightly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xia currently has twenty-three hunting teams; across the entire camp, every one of them draws attention.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But within our Digging Earth realm circle, everyone’s eyes are fixed on only three teams: Yunjiao, Longwu, and HuBao.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The reason is simple: over the past month, these three teams have consistently ranked in the top three for total hunting merit points.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"HuBao Team is now third—I remember they’ve already accumulated over 13,000 merit points this month. At an average of 300 points per low-grade cold beast, they’ve killed over forty. Hmm...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Not just low-grade beasts—they also get the first-kill bonus.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Our team, counting this White Bear, has only killed seventeen so far this month.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"The top two are even more insane. I checked last night—Deputy Director Si’s Yunjiao Team has over 52,000 merit points. Even after subtracting the 35,000 from the mid-grade Blue Moon Spirit, they still have 17,000—that’s over fifty low-grade beasts. This is ridiculous!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Director Yuwen’s Longwu Team…………\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>…………\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hearing their chatter, Yue Feng sighed, but also felt a strong sense of urgency.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Director and Yuwen Tao are both pushing hard to become Xia’s first mid-grade hunting team—whoever gets there first will win!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As team leader, he knew more about what was happening in the Hunting Department than ordinary members.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Hunting Department’s reorganization had only been underway for less than a month and already a mid-grade hunting team was about to emerge. Yet his Shanhe Team had only killed seventeen cold beasts so far—how could Yue Feng not feel urgency?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Pack up. Head back to Jinggu for rest. We return to camp tonight!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hearing they were going back, everyone’s spirits lifted instantly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Finally, we can go back.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"It’s been three days already.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"There are seven more beasts at Jinggu, plus this White Bear—we’ll earn plenty of contribution points this trip.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"We’ve been sleeping outdoors for days—we need a good rest when we get back.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>…………\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>To survey the Arrow Bamboo Forest more efficiently, Yue Feng had brought his nineteen-man team to live directly in Jinggu, returning to camp only every three days.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Only when living outside did they truly appreciate how good the valley base was.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jinggu wasn’t bad—it had houses, coal stoves, tools… nearly everything the former Jingxian campers hadn’t taken away. But living here, it still felt far less comfortable and secure than the valley.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Learning they’d return tonight, everyone’s mood improved, and their packing speed increased dramatically.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Before leaving, Yue Feng climbed to the top of a bamboo tree, surveyed the surrounding terrain, then pulled out a hide scroll and sketched with a coal stick until he was satisfied, before jumping down.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Thirty-one kilometers—we’ve surveyed nearly half of the Arrow Bamboo Forest, which stretches seventy kilometers east to west. If we keep going like this, we’ll finish surveying the entire Jinggu area soon!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The former Jingxian Camp had already surveyed twenty kilometers, and Yuwen Tao’s maps recorded every detail—so their starting point was at the twenty-kilometer mark.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In these nine days, Yue Feng’s team had pushed eleven kilometers eastward.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The results were impressive!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Li Yuankun’s injuries had mostly healed; he exclaimed excitedly: \"Eleven kilometers? No other team could have gone this deep. Unless something goes wrong, the Jinggu supervisor will be you, Captain.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yue Feng frowned slightly: \"Not necessarily. I’m not worried about most others, but Hong Tian, Zhu Ling, Zhu Yuan, and Meng Yi—I’m concerned about them. Their strength far exceeds ours. If they push forward aggressively, they might not fall behind.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Li Yuankun’s expression turned serious, and he nodded slightly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>All four were at the peak of Digging Earth realm and had begun using beast blood. Their strength surpassed Yue Feng’s significantly—if they pushed hard, they might indeed outpace them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"We do our best. I’ve worked hard enough. If we lose in the end, so be it—Jinggu was originally their home. If they’re assigned to manage this outpost, it’s still reasonable.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After speaking, Yue Feng’s brow tightened slightly—his inner thoughts were far from calm.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The group quickly exited the Arrow Bamboo Forest from the north and headed toward Jinggu, one kilometer away—the former Jingxian base.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Last month’s battle had devastated the Jingxian base mostly in terms of personnel; the buildings and camp equipment suffered relatively minor damage.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Aside from the main building where He Yuanhun had lived and two wooden huts that were completely destroyed, all other structures remained intact, their interiors untouched.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Having stayed here two nights already, everyone moved with familiarity—after descending the southern passage, they headed straight for their former wooden hut.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But before they reached halfway, Yue Feng, leading the group, looked down at the snow and suddenly frowned, stopping dead.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Carry the two injured ones into the hut. The rest of you, spread out, prepare torches and Ninghuo oil, and find out—was it a person or something else…\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hearing his voice, the others followed his gaze and saw fresh footprints in the snow—their pupils contracted, and they swiftly moved into position.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The two injured men were placed in a nearby hut; the remaining seventeen immediately scattered to search.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the Bingyuan World, snow fell constantly—footprints vanished quickly. These clear prints meant the intruder hadn’t gone far—possibly even still hiding in the camp.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Hehehe...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"We’re rich! So much beast meat—free loot!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Hurry back! So much stuff—we hit the jackpot! Hahaha!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>………………\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Laughter came from ahead. Yue Feng and the others who were about to scatter froze in place.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"No need to search—everyone, come back!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The voice came from his own former hut. The reason for their joy was obvious.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You bastards, daring to touch our kills!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Before Yue Feng moved, Li Yuankun and several others couldn’t hold back—they charged straight toward the hut.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Everyone go.
