Chapter 13: Taking the Hunting Squad Test (1/2)
The next morning, Lin Xiao returned back to his usual daily practice while Lin Yun checked on the plant. The hole that Lin Xiao managed to make on top of the stone was good enough to store the water and allowed the plant to live. However, it was clear that the water run out very quickly.
”How much water do I need to give to this Five Petals Yang Flower?” Lin Yun asked.
Wenren Yu was already feeling much better and could walk around. He looked at the flower and shook his head. ”Just leave it be for now.”
”Do you want to gather herbs too?”
”Not in this condition.”
Even if Wenren Yu wanted to, he still needed to rest a lot. It would be better for him to wait until the time was right before he headed to seek some herbs that was necessary for them.
Sua!
”I'm going to take the hunting squad test today,” Lin Xiao informed his brother and Wenren Yu. ”Don't go anywhere and don't let strangers come.”
”There shouldn't be anyone who would come to this secluded place, Brother,” Lin Yun said helplessly.
”I'll try to concoct the medicine first.”
”Ah, I'll help.”
Lin Xiao chose to let these two made the medicine as he rushed to the village. Everyone could take the test by the hunting squad every time they wanted as long as they have passed the basic requirement of reaching body training rank 5. Since Lin Xiao had passed recently, he wanted to test his luck.
The village was large because there were several fields. Lin Xiao had to pass several fields before he could reach the area where the hunting squad members usually gathered. There were only a few people who stayed there at this time.
”Oh, Little Xiao, you're here,” one villager greeted him.
Lin Xiao nodded. ”Is Captain Su here?”
”Captain Su is away. Why do you want to look for my brother?” a displeasing yet familiar tone sounded from the side.
Turning his body sideways, Lin Xiao could see Su Han walking to his direction. Dressed in another grand purple robe, it looked as if he was flaunting his family's wealth in this secluded village. With most of them could only wore dark brown robe that looked a bit worn out, Su Han stuck out like a sore thumb.
Lin Xiao grinned. ”I'm going to take the test to join the hunting squad?”
”You?” Su Han looked at Lin Xiao up and down. Up to body training rank 5, the changes in one's body could be seen. It was clear from Lin Xiao's muscle that he had already advanced to body training rank 5.
Not only that, it was clear that Lin Xiao was fully brimming with power as if he was already at that rank for a long time. The thought only soured Su Han's mood, but he chose to push it all to the back.
”Are you sure that you can withstand the pain?”
”Why not?” Lin Xiao chuckled. He looked at Su Han with challenging gaze as if saying that no matter what, he would surely pass the test with no problem at all.
”You…”
”Are you afraid that I'll pass, Su Han?”
