*pitter-patter* The rain continued to pour down, making tapping sounds as they hit leaves and stones.
Listening carefully, there was a kind of rhythm to it that was quite pleasant, especially when combined with the appearance of the misty forest.
Yan Hua continued jumping through the forest, the falling rain seeming to have no effect on her.
She moved as nimbly as a jumping rabbit, each step landing precisely on the tree trunks without any deviation.
Her leaping figure was not out of place even in the rain, her rising silhouette forming a beautiful arc through the rain.
Yan Hua kept launching bone spikes from her hand. Having been practicing since early morning, she was now quite skilled at launching them.
With each *whooshing* sound, every bone spike hit its mark perfectly on the Ground Worms or the Tree Cicadas.
Her Animal Hide Bag was already filled with Tree Cicadas. After all, there would be a reward for whichever Warrior Trainee caught the most.
"I have many, but it is still not enough," Yan Hua closed her Animal Hide Bag, preparing to continue collecting more.
*Tap tap tap…* Suddenly, footsteps ca from below the forest, more noticeable as they stepped on the rain-soaked ground.
"Ah’Lan, your footsteps are too loud," Yan Hua flipped down to the ground as well.
She had heard clearly that the sounds ca from the cat eared girl, and had seen her cat tail swaying in the rain.
Sha Lan stopped when she heard Yan Hua’s voice, her cat tail also dropping down.
She saw her land, and ran over smiling, asking, "Ah’Hua, how many Tree Cicadas have you caught?"
Yan Hua smiled, proudly pulling her Animal Hide Bag forward and opening it, "Not many, I need to continue."
"Wow, you’re amazing, it’s almost full!" Sha Lan exclaid, her blue eyes widening in surprise.
"What about you? How many have you caught?" Yan Hua curiously asked.
Sha Lan’s expression was clearly dejected as she pulled her Animal Hide Bag forward and opened it, "Only about a tenth of what you have."
The cat eared girl had thought she had caught quite a lot, but seeing how many the cow horned girl had caught left her stunned.
Indeed, there were differences between people, and one could not be content with the status quo.
"Keep working hard, there’s still plenty of ti before it ends. I can help you." Yan Hua encouraged.
The cow horned girl and cat eared girl had a good relationship, and she did not want to see her friend get scolded.
Today’s collection ti lasted until sunset, with rewards for catching the most Tree Cicadas, and naturally, punishnt for the person who caught the least.
Sha Lan shook her head repeatedly, refusing, "No, that would reduce your numbers, then you’d have no hope of making it into the top three."
Sha Lan did not want her friend to miss out on rewards because of her. It was her own lack of skills that made her fail. She really could not rely on others for this.
Yan Hua just smiled and said, "That doesn’t matter, I’ve already caught so many and I’ll keep catching more. There’s no need for you to worry."
Yan Hua did not think it was a big deal. Her friends were definitely more important than the rewards.
"I’ll work hard too." Sha Lan suddenly beca serious, determined to et her new goal.
Yan Hua was the sa, holding several bone spikes in her hand and clenching several more between her teeth.
This way, they could catch Tree Cicadas in the shortest ti, saving the ti needed to pull bone spikes from their bags.
"So that’s how it’s done…" Sha Lan learned sothing new and also put bone spikes between her teeth.
A girl on the left and a girl on the right, each searching for their own targets.
Their leaping figures, one with black hair and one with blue hair, made a beautiful sight in the rain.
*Whoosh whoosh…* Breaking sounds continuously rang out as the girls’ bone spikes flew out one after another.
"Ah’Hua, I caught two!" Sha Lan exclaid happily as she pulled the Tree Cicadas from the tree trunk.
Her single bone spike had aid at two Tree Cicadas – one in flight and one on the trunk. She had killed two birds with one stone.
"That’s amazing, I haven’t done that before." Yan Hua said admiringly.
Encouraged, Sha Lan’s lips curved upward with a pleased expression.
She held two bone spikes while aiming at her next target, confidently saying, "Maybe I can catch up?"
"I need to work harder too!" Yan Hua was equally confident, thinking she needed to put in more effort.
*Whoosh whoosh…*
"Ah’Hua, how many have you caught?" Ai’er flew through the rain in the air, her wings seeming to have so sort of protective coating.
The raindrops that fell on her butterfly wings turned into water beads that smoothly slid off. They were unable to wet her wings.
"Not many, how many have you caught?" Yan Hua wanted to keep it secret, not wanting too many people to know.
Ai’er slowly landed on the ground, smiling, "I’ve caught half a bag, they’re so easy to catch."
The butterfly girl was very happy because her wings gave her quite the advantage. She would often spot the Tree Cicadas before others could.
"That’s amazing, you’ve caught so many," Sha Lan said enviously, starting to wish she had a pair of wings too, even if they were not as brilliant looking as Ai’er. As long as she could fly, the appearance did not matter too much…
"Then, we need to work hard, or we won’t catch up to you." Yan Hua smiled.
She secretly breathed a sigh of relief, seeing that the other’s numbers had not surpassed her own.

"I won’t compete with you here. I’ll go look at other places." Ai’er smiled as she flapped her wings and rose into the air.
Her purple butterfly wings were truly eye-catching in the rain. They flapped so gracefully.
"Be careful. Don’t go too far." Yan Hua cautioned.
Flying in the rain was actually quite dangerous, especially with the rain being so heavy.
"I know. You be careful too." Ai’er said as she flapped her wings and left.
