The day before the tribe chief set out with the team, the Giant Tiger Tribe welcomed friends from the Giant Wolf Tribe. The leader of the Giant Wolf Tribe, Li's father called Ge, who was also the chief of the Giant Wolf Tribe, brought along the beastmen of his tribe to return the animal meat they had borrowed last cold season. Given that the Giant Wolf Tribe was located in the far north, food was relatively scarce. The sudden extension of cold season by another month had forced them to seek help from the…-

Wu Xiaoyin had no objections to this. He turned to look at Lei Lu who was holding him, indicating that it was up to him to decide. Lei Lu was quite pleased with this reliance from Xiao Xiao. He patted his little head and said, “Since Xiao Xiao has decided to share the methods for making the doors and beds with all friendly tribes, we should make a standard to avoid any issues happening from the quantity of traded goods.” Ge nodded in agreement at his words and signaled for Lei Lu to continue. “As…-

“Of course not. I was wondering if you could go outside now. If you can, let’s go look for some pretty flowers to decorate Feng and Bin’s home,” Xiao Kai said with a longing look on his face. Wu Xiaoyin found Xiao Kai's enthusiasm amusing and replied, “It seems like you really want to pair up with Kos?” Xiao Kai quickly denied after hearing this, “How could that be? I’m not of age yet!” Wu Xiaoyin responded knowingly, “Really? Your expression doesn’t seem to say that.” Feeling…-

As the priest Uncle Luo offered the powerful prey to the Beast God and distributed the blood that had been collected among the beastmen, Wu Xiaoyin felt sweat in his palms. He remembered that he had dried the Fran Orchid Xiao Kai gave him while Lei Lu was out and made flower tea this morning, hiding it in the cupboard. Thinking about that pot of scented tea eased his nerves. When he looked up, the pairing ceremony had already begun. There were over twenty pairs of tribe members participating in the…-

The joyous atmosphere of the Harvest Festival quickly dissipated, leaving the entire tribe in silence, bewildered and at a loss. Wu Xiaoyin looked at the rooms and basement of his house filled with food and wasn't overly worried about food shortages. He was more worried about the future growth of plants and the migration of animals, but those worries could wait until next year's growth season. The main issue now was the exchange of information between various tribes during the Exchange Day and future…-

As Wu Xiaoyin paced around the room, Lei Lu returned with a cleaned giant bull beast. Wu Xiaoyin welcomed him and directed him to place the giant bull beast in the kitchen, where it would be prepped later. Lunch was already ready, just waiting for Lei Lu to return so they could eat together. The lunch included potato stew with meat, honey-roasted meat, cold mixed vegetables, and stir-fried bamboo shoots. After eating, Wu Xiaoyin felt drowsy. Sure enough, people feel sleepy in spring, tired in autumn, and…-

"Uncle Kun, do you remember if there were any floods during the last drought? Did the river overflow into the tribe?” Wu Xiaoyin looked at the tribe chief and asked. “Yes, there was. The flood at that time washed away all the hard-earned animal meat we hunted. The males had to eat giant potatoes and sweet potatoes with the females and cubs. I was just a cub back then, and I barely survived!” Kun recalled, still shaken by the memory. Wu Xiaoyin pressed further, “Were there any cases of tribe…-

Wu Xiaoyin struck a pose, poking his arm. “See? This is muscle!” Xiao Kai asked innocently, “What kind of meat is muscle? Can we eat it? Is it giant chicken meat?” Wu Xiaoyin was so angry that he nearly fell over, while Xiao Kai and Bin burst into laughter. However, it wasn’t long before Wu Xiaoyin revived, because his mind sparked by Xiao Kai’s mention of the giant chicken beast. “Is the giant chicken beast the one that can cluck, cluck?” Xiao Kai scratched his head and replied,…-

The temperature in the hot season had soared to 40 degrees Celsius, an unprecedented heat for the Giant Tiger Tribe. All the females and cubs had stopped venturing out during the hottest times of the day. They only dared to enjoy the outdoors in the early morning or evening. Days passed quickly yet felt long. As they entered the fourth month of the hot season, the harvest season was approaching. Thankfully, most wild vegetables and fruits remained largely unaffected. While some shade-loving plants looked…-

The harvest season came even faster than Wu Xiaoyin had imagined. As soon as the rain stopped, the fruits on the trees and the wild vegetables in the fields became vibrant and plump. Wu Xiaoyin was amazed that despite the heavy rain for half a month, the fruits and wild vegetables on the Beastman Continent could still thrive! After a period of rest, the beastmen of the Giant Tiger Tribe began another round of hunting in the second month of the harvest season to prepare for the upcoming cold season.…-
