Shi Li, who had been smashed into the ground, could feel that his crystal core was unstable and that cracks were appearing on its surface.

If he cultivated properly, he could fill up the cracks with the energy from cultivation. However, after he had arrived at the Beast God Temple as a Beast King, he had encountered many things and had had no time to cultivate.

When he’d first been reborn, he’d lost face in the Big Bear Tribe. Later, he’d been looked down on by others when he arrived at the Elephant Tribe, and it wasn’t until he became a Beast King that he felt like he could stand up and live again.

But now, his dignity had been trampled into the ground once again.

Shi Li very much wanted to fight against Xiong Ye, but he also knew that he couldn’t fight. If he fought, he might lose his life––once his crystal core shattered, he would come to the same end as Xiang Tian!

When Shi Li was young, he’d also had a short fuse and hadn’t wanted to be looked down upon. But as he grew older, he became less and less aggressive and impulsive. He even started to hesitate and place emphasis on preserving his life.

“Xiong Ye, I’ve always appreciated your help from before. I won’t fight with you.” Shi Li repeated.

Xiong Ye sniffed contemptuously, “If you were truly grateful, then why didn’t you return to the tribe even after becoming a Beast King for so long?”

Shi Li was left momentarily speechless. As soon as he looked up he saw that everyone around them was looking at him with strange gazes. For a while, he felt that his face was burning hot with pain and wished that a crack would appear in the ground so he could go inside and hide.

“Are you going to fight or not?” Xiong Ye pressed.

Shi Li replied, “I was at fault before. I won’t fight you this time.”

With that, the huge lion left quickly.

Those onlookers really looked down on Shi Li when they saw this scene. Some of the braver ones even said, “Shi Li became a Beast King when he was young, and I really admired him before. I didn’t expect that he would turn out to be like this…”

“His words are pleasant, but at the end of the day, isn’t it just that he doesn’t dare to fight?”

“I didn’t think that the Lion Beast King would be so weak!”

……

Someone else spoke about Xiong Ye, “That Bear Beast King’s animal form looks very powerful.”

“The Bear Beast King is really good to his mate.”

“When I went to the Big Bear Tribe to watch the excitement, I saw that the Bear Beast King lived and ate with his own people and even helped them do things. He didn’t put on any airs at all.”

“I saw that too. He even went out fishing this morning!”

If they looked at Shi Li, then looked at Xiong Ye, anyone would immediately feel that Xiong Ye was very good.

Even Shen Yue now felt that Xiong Ye was better than Shi Li.

She even regretted that she’d ever been together with Shi Li… they were both Beast Kings, but Xiong Ye was so much better than Shi Li.
