Chapter 1641: Number Four Combat Power Challenges Number Two

Xia Qing pressed down the big paw the Broken-Waist Wolf was about to raise, and replied cheerfully, "Understood. Flight altitude is not allowed to drop below 2,000 meters. The helicopter departs at ten o'clock and arrives over the southern wolf pack's territory around ten-thirty. After the special training ends, Fourth, take the little wolves back as quickly as possible. Don't take detours or wander off."

After finishing the official business, to prevent the Broken-Waist Wolf from bringing up to Fourth the matter of the wolf pack members' cameo appearances requiring Xia Qing to pay performance fees—and leading the earnest old wolf astray—Xia Qing cheerfully diverted Fourth's attention. "Fourth, can I take a look at the sharpest teeth in all of Blue Star that you've just grown?"

The old wolf, not wearing a mask, skillfully opened its mouth. The gesture wasn't pretty, but the old wolf didn't care—it wanted Xia Qing to see its newly grown-in teeth.

The Broken-Waist Wolf's attention was also diverted, and it joined Xia Qing in examining Fourth's teeth.

The seven teeth that had been pulled from the old wolf had all grown back in. The new teeth were fully formed and white, and the original teeth, under the care of professional dentist Zhang Shi, had also become much whiter than before, so the color contrast between old and new teeth wasn't obvious. No layperson would be able to tell at a glance that it had replaced its teeth.

Xia Qing was relieved and praised it enthusiastically, "Excellent! Congratulations, Fourth, on having a healthy, sharp set of teeth again, back at the peak of your combat power!"

After the Broken-Waist Wolf evaluated Fourth's teeth with awoo-awoo sounds, it opened its mouth wide for Xia Qing to see its own teeth.

Just as Xia Qing was about to enthusiastically praise the Broken-Waist Wolf, the special training instructor Yan Long spoke up. "Xia Qing, come here."

"Yes!" Xia Qing, who had been huddled with the two wolves, immediately stood up and ran toward the center of the field.

Twenty minutes later, after being beaten up by Yan Long and having two detailed movements corrected, Xia Qing caught her breath leaning against the Handsome Giant Wolf, then called the scruffy-furred Broken-Waist Wolf over to discuss business.

Why was the Broken-Waist Wolf's fur scruffy? Because the thing had been showing off its teeth to Fourth and mocking Fourth's handwriting for not being standard enough, and got taught a lesson by Fourth, whose combat power had been restored.

In front of a high-level speed and strength Evolver, the elasticity-evolved Broken-Waist Wolf didn't even get the chance to climb a tree!

"Broken-Waist, did you see those tents set up on the open ground south of the northern Area One human territory?"

The dirty Broken-Waist Wolf raised a paw and wrote down two standard numbers:

16

"Right, there were 16 tents before, and last night it became 17." Xia Qing explained in detail. "Those tents house 61 human Evolvers with very high combat power, plus 11 liaison personnel. These 61 people are bodyguards for the human experts living in Territory Seven and Center Nine…"

Xia Qing gave a detailed introduction of the humans in the tents, focusing on Professor Huang Wanmao of Bai Yi University's Medical School, who had been driven out of the northern Area One territory the day before.

Xia Qing showed the two smart wolves, as well as the Handsome Giant Wolf lying nearby pretending not to be smart, Huang Wanmao's facial photo, photos of him wearing protective gear, video footage, and his voice, and let them sniff the scent on the hand towel Huang Wanmao had left in Territory Nine. Only then did she solemnly remind them, "I suspect Huang Wanmao actively violated Center Nine's rules by moving into the tents. Because the tents outside the territory aren't under strict surveillance, he can lead a team to do bad things."

"Huang Wanmao is the only one of the 42 human experts who came to our area who has been confirmed as a member of the Blue Blood Alliance."

The Broken-Waist Wolf and Fourth had been educated by Xia Qing long ago and knew that Blue Blood was a human gang even worse than Blaze. The two smart wolves stared at Huang Wanmao, still talking on Xia Qing's phone, and bared their bone-white fangs, murderous.

The Handsome Giant Wolf stared at the Broken-Waist Wolf's scruffy fur, completely uninterested in the information on the phone.

Xia Qing spread out a map and continued her briefing. "I sent four humans to watch the tent area, especially Huang Wanmao's group, but we still need to strengthen our defenses. Broken-Waist, send two clever evolved wolves to guard this location. The moment you spot human intrusion, howl immediately…"

"Fourth, when you bring the little wolves for lessons again, avoid this area. It might be spotted by tamed birds or drones in the air…"

"Big Wolf Bro, Big Wolf Bro, look here!" Xia Qing pulled the Handsome Giant Wolf's big head over and made it look at the map. "Go find the Western Wolf King—your brother—and have it send two wolves to hold this area…"

"And here, Mountain Forty-Eight. This Yi-element magnetic field-releasing mistletoe red bean seed might also be targeted. Does Mountain Forty-Eight currently belong to the Western wolf pack or the Northern wolf pack? … Both? Good."

Both belonging meant Mountain Forty-Eight was now a public hunting ground. Xia Qing continued assigning tasks. "Which one of you three will go notify the Black-Scar Leopard and the Eyelash Leopard on Mountain Forty-Eight to watch out for their safety?"

The Broken-Waist Wolf looked at the Handsome Giant Wolf. The Handsome Giant Wolf was still staring at the Broken-Waist Wolf's dirty fur.

Xia Qing felt neither of them was reliable, so she could only discuss it with the most reliable one. "Fourth, will you make a trip?"

Fourth looked dead serious and indicated this matter had nothing to do with it.

Xia Qing could only invoke the Northern Wolf King. "Broken-Waist, go to Mountain Forty-Eight and find the Black-Scar Leopard and the Eyelash Leopard. Not going? Fine, I'll just call Her Majesty…"

The Broken-Waist Wolf immediately reluctantly bared the tips of its fangs, indicating it could make a trip.

"Good, that's settled then. Broken-Waist Wolf goes notify the two leopards. If the little leopards are still on Mountain Forty-Eight, notify them too—don't let them get captured by humans."

Xia Qing wasn't reassured, so she repeated all the tasks and key points one more time, finally emphasizing, "The humans in the tents have very high combat power. The moment they invade our territory and you need to drive them out, you must take in advance the anti-anesthetic potions I've traded to you. If you don't have the certainty of a one-hit kill, contact me immediately and I'll snipe them from long range. Absolutely don't take risks. Understood?"

Staying alive is more important than anything.

After the meeting, Xia Qing educated the Handsome Giant Wolf. "Big Wolf Bro, seeing Fourth win against the Broken-Waist Wolf, you think you've found a way to beat the Broken-Waist Wolf and want to fight it?"

The Handsome Giant Wolf fixed Xia Qing with a pair of ice-blue eyes, murderous. That look, paired with its big icy face, would make anyone think this thing wasn't a Brain Domain Evolver.

Xia Qing earnestly reminded it, "Fourth is a high-level speed Evolver, you're not. Its moves are useless for you to learn. Yan-jie isn't a speed Evolver. Don't get distracted—follow Yan-jie and study seriously…"

Before Xia Qing could finish, the Broken-Waist Wolf beside her shook its body hard, splattering mud all over Xia Qing and the Handsome Giant Wolf's heads.

Xia Qing wiped the mud spots off her protective face shield, turned around, dropped into a stance, and said murderously, "Broken-Waist, just you wait. Next month, I'm challenging you. The Northern wolf pack's Number Two combat power—I'm taking it!"

"Woof!" The Broken-Waist Wolf bared its fangs, equally murderous.

"Grrrr—" The Handsome Giant Wolf growled low, its killing intent even fiercer.

The Northern wolf pack's Number Three and Number Four combat powers were about to challenge the wolf pack's Number Two combat power. The Southern wolf pack's Fourth sidestepped twice, refusing to get involved in their fight.

Yan Long, who was in the middle of special training nine sub-adult wolves, heard the noise and turned to see Xia Qing actually baring her teeth and squaring off against two adult wolves…
