*Splash splash…*

At the outer region of the Flame Dragon Tribe, the Warrior Trainees gathered together again for their second day of training.

After completing yesterday’s training, the top three received their rewards and rested for the evening.

Yesterday’s training focused on accuracy, while today’s training would test both accuracy and power.

This meant that they would be using Beast Bone Spears, which was not an easy task in the rain.

Besides testing their precision, it would also test their control over the power needed to throw the spears.

“Today, like yesterday, the top three will receive rewards. Of course, those who rank poorly will face the consequence.” Yan Jiao sternly announced.

“Yes!” The Warrior Trainees responded in unison.

Everyone’s expression was solemn, as many had failed yesterday and wanted to redeem themselves today.

Sha Lan’s expression was equally serious. Yesterday she had nearly made it into the top three, so she wanted to work even harder to make it there.

“Let’s work hard together.” Yan Hua said earnestly.

Sha Lan nodded seriously and replied, “Today, it is testing my greatest strength. I definitely won’t lose!”

The cat eared girl had performed excellently in spear throwing last year, reaching first place.

“Don’t go too far into the forest after you enter. Your targets are the Rain Snakes that only appear during the rainy season.” Yan Jiao said.

“Understood!” The Warrior Trainees responded in unison again.

“Don’t be careless. The Rain Snakes have potent attacks. Make sure you don’t get bitten. If you’re bitten, immediately seek help from a Totem Warrior.” Yan Jiao cautioned.

Previously, some Warrior Trainees had been bitten by Rain Snakes. Though these beasts were not poisonous, each bite was extremely painful. Their jaws were also so strong they could tear off flesh. Naturally, it was best not to underestimate them.

These creatures were also small in size, reaching over a meter in length, with a thickness comparable to an adult’s wrist.

“Understood,” the Warrior Trainees responded in unison.

They had experienced Rain Snakes last year and naturally knew the danger of these creatures. This was why they needed to use spears to deal with them.

Naturally for safety, when the Warrior Trainees trained in the forest, the Totem Warriors would secretly watch from concealed positions.

“Go!” Yan Jiao waved his hand.

“Yes! The Warrior Trainees turned and headed toward the forest.

*Step step step…*

*Splash splash…*

*Rumble rumble…*

The Warrior Trainees ran into the forest while in the rain, all wearing raincoats.

However, during this training, the raincoats would hinder them. This made it such that this year, they were also testing the Warrior Trainees’ agility while behind hindered.

This year was their first time training while wearing raincoats; they had not done so before.

Still, having raincoats was better than not having anything. Previously, when they trained in the rain, their vision would often get blurry from the rain constantly hitting their face. Their hair would also get wet from the rain, which was particularly troublesome for the girls, as their long hair would cover their eyes.

However, with the raincoats and straw hats, all these problems were solved. Now, their bodies would also not feel too uncomfortable while out in the elements.

Yan Hua’s expression was even more serious, it was for no other reason than the fact that she had gotten first place yesterday.

“Ah’Hua, let’s stay in the same area today, so we can look out for each other.” Sha Lan suggested.

“No problem.” Yan Hua smiled in response.

The cow horned girl did not mind and actually preferred having a companion to avoid boredom.

Moreover, it would be safer to move in pairs while in the forest, as one never knew what might happen the very next moment.

Furthermore, with the rainy season’s arrival, many unfamiliar creatures would appear, and they were no less dangerous than the usual beasts.

Some Ferocious Beasts, once they appeared, could even signal the coming of severe weather.

“Then, I’ll need you to look after me.” Sha Lan joked.

“Haha… stop that, I’m the one who needs your care today.” Yan Hua laughed.

Both girls were individually formidable, and neither would drag the other down.

The two walked into the forest chatting and laughing, with the heavy rain above having no effect on them whatsoever.

*Step step step…* Yan Hua walked on the wet ground, the green grass bending under her steps, though after she passed, the grass would stand up again.

She vigilantly scanned the surroundings and said, “Ah’Lan, be careful.”

“En, you too/” Sha Lan had already placed one hand behind her back, ready to act.

Each of them carried about ten spears on their backs. Each spear was very long or thick, but they were extremely sharp.

Yan Hua heard the sound of a snake’s tongue and immediately drew a spear from her back.

She lowered her red eyes and said, “Ah’Lan, my target has arrived.”

“Mine too.” Sha Lan was already holding a spear.

The cat eared girl’s blue eyes remained fixed on the right side, as she had long sensed movement there.

Yan Hua stepped onto a tree branch, holding her spear high, just waiting for the target to appear.

Her gaze was sharp as she declared, “Ah’Lan, let’s compete, see who can catch more.”

“Good. Let’s go.” Sha Lan replied confidently, also jumping onto a tree branch.

*Rustle rustle…*

As the rain grew heavier, the rustling in the grass grew louder. This indicated the Rain Snakes were preparing to move.

Rain Snakes were creatures that only emerged during the rainy season, with an overall light blue colouration.

These creatures were not poisonous, but they had two long fangs and were extremely strong. If one got wrapped up by it for less than a minute, their bones would be crushed to powder. Though it would not immediately take one’s life, these snakes were still dangerous.

In short, once caught by a Rain Snake, one’s life was under threat.

“I see you.” Yan Hua smiled, having spotted a Rain Snake poking out its head.

*Whoosh!* Yan Hua forcefully threw her spear, which cut through the air as it pierced straight through the Rain Snake’s head.

But the cow horned girl did not stop there, continuing to throw her second spear.

*Whoosh!* Another Rain Snake’s head was pinned by the spear.

“Score!” Yan Hua smiled.

When the cow horned girl saw the first Rain Snake, she had also spotted the second one, though only its tail.

But she had precisely captured where its head was, which was why she immediately threw the second spear.
