Su Bai was reading a herbal encyclopaedia at his desk when he heard Yan Jiao’s voice from outside.
He closed the book and looked up, saying, “Chieftain, co in.”
“Shaman, the results are out. We know who from the Black Snake Tribe will be leaving.” Yan Jiao said with vigour.
“Tell , who’s staying?” Su Bai asked with a sigh.
“Over two hundred elderly people and more than a hundred disabled people have left. Of the over four hundred children, only half remained.” He reported.
“Only half stayed? Why? Tell about the situation.” Su Bai was sowhat surprised. Though he had thought most of the children looked weak, unexpectedly only half of them could stay.
“Many got knocked out by the stronger ones, with those remaining having a lot of talent.” Yan Jiao said.
“Many have talent? How so?” Su Bai sat up straight and asked.
“Among them, about sixty children can awaken as Totem Warriors in the future. After I personally checked them, this is sothing I can guarantee.” He said with confidence.
He was very certain because he had never misjudged others before. Those he thought well of always beca either Warrior Trainees or Totem Warriors.
*Cough cough cough…* Suddenly rembering how he had doubted Su Bai before, he could not help but cough awkwardly.
He thought to himself, [Hey! That ti doesn’t count because we were selecting a Shaman, not a Warrior Trainee! It was reasonable for to be wrong. Yes, very reasonable!]
Su Bai noticed his strange expression and asked, “What’s wrong? Are you alright?”
Yan Jiao quickly shook his head and awkwardly said, “Nothing. Anyway! These children can be trained.”
“Are there any particularly outstanding individuals among the remaining children?” Su Bai curiously asked.
Since among the over four hundred children, there were more than sixty with potential, there must be several exceptional ones.
If they focused on training these few people, they could beco one of the Tribe’s most important forces.
“There’s one called Ya who perford exceptionally well. He defeated ten children in a row, and if we hadn’t stopped him, he probably would have continued.” Yan Jiao recalled the scene. R
Though he appeared only seven or eight years old, his stamina and spirit were no different from an adult. This child left a particularly deep impression on him because none of the moves he used were random.
One could clearly see him intentionally using his hand or foot. He could also easily avoid attacks and launch his own offensive.
It could be said that Ya won very smoothly. After beating ten people in succession, he was not tired at all. He was not even breathing heavily.
This point shocked Yan Jiao greatly. Even if it had been a Warrior Trainee or Totem Warrior at that young age, they probably would not be able to fight against ten people and still remain so unaffected.
He even felt this child was sowhat frightening, so while heading to the wooden house, he thought to report this matter to the Shaman.
“Ya? How old is he? Are his parents still alive? Bring him here for to see.” Su Bai said with curiosity. [One defeating ten. This is the first ti I’ve heard of such a thing, especially when done by a child. No matter how strong one is, fighting continuously would tire a person out. Seeing the Chieftain’s surprised expression, this child must be extraordinary.]
“He’s alone, and he wasn’t originally from the Black Snake Tribe. He cos from a destroyed Tribe,” Yan Jiao said.
When he saw how formidable this child was, he was sowhat worried. So, he specifically sent soone to inquire about his background. He was relieved upon learning he was an orphan and was not from the Black Snake Tribe.
For a child to show such remarkable talent at such a young age – if they were from the Black Snake Tribe, it would be problematic. If they did not kill him, even if he was driven out, he would still sohow survive.
At the very least, this was what many people would co to believe. It was only fortunate that this child was not originally from the Black Snake Tribe, so they need not worry as much.
In their Tribe, talented individuals were people such as Sha Hong, himself, and Cang Shi. There was also Uncle Shan Qiu, who no longer had legs. They all showed exceptional talent when they were young. The cow horned girl, Yan Hua, was quite good too.
“That’s good then. Since he’s not from the Black Snake Tribe, we can properly train him up.” Su Bai nodded with satisfaction and turned to instruct, “Xiao Yu, have soone bring him here.”
“Yes.” Yu Ying nodded.
“Shaman, there are several others with great potential as well. They’re not from the Black Snake Tribe either, so we can train them as well.” Yan Jiao said.
“Xiao Yu, wait.” Su Bai called out to the fox eared girl again, adding, “Bring all the most talented children who won today.”
“Shaman, how many people would that be?” Yu Ying asked.
“Eight will do, the eight of the most talented ones.” Su Bai instructed.
“Xiao Yu, just ask Qing Mu and Chi Tu who they are. Those two would know. Let them bring the children in.” Yan Jiao turned around and said.
Yu Ying nodded firmly and ran from the wooden house, her pink fox tail swaying.
“Shaman, what do you want these eight people for?” Yan Jiao curiously asked.
“If we can train them well, they’ll be very helpful in the future,” Su Bai smiled. “Among the remaining half, are there any from the Black Snake Tribe?”
Yan Jiao thought for a mont and said, “There are so, but we can’t tell if they have that great of a potential yet, so it’s not that big of an issue.”
“Make sure our n constantly keep watch over them. Though their Shaman and Chieftain are gone, and they probably won’t have any ill intentions, it is better to be safe than sorry.” Su Bai said softly.
“If they dare to have any thoughts, I’ll imdiately snap their heads off.” Yan Jiao solemnly declared.
He got angry just thinking about the Black Snake Tribe. It was already generous enough to take them in and give them at every day. To him, this kind of betrayal was unforgivable.
“Yes, don’t let them off if they have any ill intentions.” Su Bai did not want to keep such people either, which was partly why they chose to root out so people.
“By the way, Shaman, what about the Black Snake Tribe’s Warrior Trainees?” Yan Jiao asked.
Su Bai thought for a mont and asked, “Have they been behaving since they’ve been confined?”
“They’ve been behaving quite well. They also eat all the at distributed to them.” Yan Jiao reported.
He felt sowhat regretful about letting them eat at. After all, their own Tribesn had barely enough to eat, yet they still had to feed these people.
“Keep watching them for a few more days, then let them out to work.” Su Bai calmly stated.
As long as they had at to eat, most would not really care who served as their Shaman or Chieftain. However, they still needed to be confined for now. They needed ti for them to settle their thoughts and completely abandon any ill intentions.
“Alright!” Yan Jiao nodded.
