C22 Duel

He slept very well, and when he woke up, he found the sun high up in the sky, and the hot sun was scorching hot all over the place.

Dugu Yuan rubbed his belly and walked out of the stone house lazily. mother was cooking. When she saw him wake up, she quickly got up and took out a large pottery bowl. When she smelled it, Dugu Yuan knew it was delicious meat soup.

"Yuan, you slept for a day and night. Your stomach must be hungry. Quickly eat it!" mother said with concern.

Having the care of his family was such a good feeling. Dugu Yuan sighed in his heart. He took the pottery bowl and his stomach rumbled. He was really hungry, so he wolfed it down.

Seeing that he was eating well, a loving smile appeared on mother's face. Her eyes were filled with deep affection.

After eating, Dugu Yuan patted his slightly round belly and said with a smile, "mother's craftsmanship is really good. She can make ordinary rabbit meat so fresh and delicious. I am full."

"If there are more seasoning, I can make even better food!" mother smiled kindly and took out a brown leather armor and a pair of leather boots from behind her as if she had become magic. "This was sent by the chief. Put it on quickly!"

The patriarch sent it over? Dugu Yuan's eyes lit up when he saw these two brand new items. In the tribe, the conditions were quite harsh. They usually wore linen cloth shoes. The best was animal hide clothes, but the workmanship was not precise enough. The leather boots made of animal hide were not polished, so when it came to equipment... It had always been not satisfactory.

However, these two items were different. They were brown leather armor. The surface was smooth and shiny. Under the tentacles, it was soft like silk. But Dugu Yuan knew that this was definitely not silk that could be torn apart. This leather armor seemed to be made of wolf skin, in terms of workmanship. It was much more exquisite than ordinary wolf skin leather armor! It seemed that his father, Nu Feng, had one, but he rarely wore it. Because he couldn't bear to.

As for the leather boots, Dugu Yuan knew where they came from. It was in March of this year. A group of merchants passed by their tribe. The tribe leader traded two tiger claws and a good piece of deer skin for them. It was said that the boots were given to him as a gift when his grandson, Nu Ling, advanced to the third step. But now it was a gift for him.

"Hurry up and put it on. I still have something to do today!" mother's urging woke Dugu Yuan up from his shock.

Dugu Yuan did not think too much. He put on the leather armor. It was very soft and did not feel any discomfort. The leather boots were strong and light. He wanted to rush out and stretch his fists and legs.

"By the way, have you found out about the Brave Axe Clan's conspiracy? Is there going to be a war? "Dugu Yuan, who was eager to give it a try, asked casually.

Mother was happy to be quiet and hated killing. She slightly frowned and said, "Brave Axe Clan poisoned the well water. Nothing else was found. Yesterday afternoon, the Brave Axe Clan sent people over. They did not want to admit it. They did not admit that the pickup was sent by them. Later, the Violent Bear Clan sent someone to negotiate peace. They decided that the two families would hold a competition at the seaside this afternoon. There would be three matches. If we lose, we will let the iron ore mine out of our family. If they lose... We will have to apologize to the public and pay us ten boars. Twenty jars of good wine, three hundred deerskins, thirty bows, and a thousand arrows."

Dugu Yuan frowned. Iron ore mine was the biggest treasure of Angry Axe Clan. There was an iron mine hidden in the iron ore mine, right at the back of the mountain where the clan was stationed. The entrance. Behind the conference hall, the Angry Axe Clan was able to dig out two thousand kilograms of iron ore from this iron mine every year. Since they couldn't refine iron themselves, they transported the iron ore to the Violent Bear Clan's market. They would exchange for weapons, food, clothes, and so on. If the iron ore mine was gone, the Angry Axe Clan would suffer a great loss.

Of course, the Brave Axe Clan's compensation was also not cheap. Ten wild boars were equivalent to their hunting harvests in a day. Three hundred deer skins would take a month to gather. The Angry Axe Clan did not know how to make bows and arrows, so the Brave Axe Clan sent over their bows and arrows. They had the ability to attack from afar, which was very useful in battle.

Dugu Yuan looked at the sun outside. It was getting late. Perhaps his clansmen had already gone to the seaside. He told mother and quickly walked towards conference hall.

Before he arrived at the entrance of conference hall, he saw a group of people walking out from conference hall. In the middle were the patriarch, Nu Shuo, and his father, Nu Feng.

Seeing his brand new equipment, Nu Shuo smiled and nodded. "En, it really suits you. Child, you should come with us to take a look!"

Dugu Yuan nodded in agreement. At the same time, he thanked Nu Shuo for the gift and followed beside Nu Feng.

A group of people walked out of the headquarters and towards the sea.

Along the way, Dugu Yuan felt like he was being spied on. He had practiced the Undying Vajra, and his senses were sharper than ordinary people. When he turned around, he saw a pair of jealous eyes.

The owner of that pair of eyes was Nu Ling.

When Dugu Yuan found out, Nu Ling was stunned for a moment, but then he glared at him fiercely, his eyes filled with hostility.

Dugu Yuan was not a three-year-old child, but he quickly understood that this Nu Ling looked down on him. This time, he showed off his power and took away the boots that originally belonged to him. It was normal for him to be jealous of him.

At this moment, a handsome young man who was half a head taller than Nu Ling patted his shoulder. Dugu Yuan was surprised to find out that this young man was the strongest among the younger generation. Nu Tian, who was highly sought after by the younger generation and valued by the family.

Why was he here as well? Dugu Yuan thought to himself. Due to Nu Tian's innate talent and intelligence, the Violent Aura in his bloodline was also very thick. His strength had already reached the Fourth Grade, and he was now an official member of the Barbarian Alliance Throwing Axe Team. Although he was a member of the Alliance Throwing Axe Team, this was only an honor. He was usually in his own tribe, and only when the alliance needed him to do something. Only then would he gather the members of his tribe. Nu Tian was usually in seclusion in his tribe and would not easily show himself. This time, he appeared.

He did not know what Nu Tian had said to Nu Ling, but Nu Ling's eyes were no longer arrogant. Nu Tian looked up at Dugu Yuan and nodded slightly.

Dugu Yuan was secretly puzzled, but he also nodded at him as a greeting.

The team finally arrived at the beach.

There were fifty to sixty people from the Brave Axe Clan, all of them had strong backs and strong waists, and they were all equipped with long bows and axes.

Dugu Yuan looked from afar and unexpectedly found a familiar face. It was the young man in silver armor who had teased Tian Ying in the forest a few days ago and was knocked out by him.

He stood in the middle of the group. He was a tall and sturdy old man with a beard all over his face. He had the same arrogant expression as the people from the Brave Axe Clan. That old man was the patriarch of the Brave Axe Clan - Beimon.

When the people from the Angry Axe Clan stopped in front of the Brave Axe Clan, Beimon said with a hearty laugh, "Nu Shuo, why are there only thirty to forty of you here? Is there no one else in the family? "

Nu Shuo smiled and said, "This is a competition, not a group fight. We don't have many talents here. Of course, we won't find some mediocre people like you to boost your courage!"

The faces of the Brave Axe Clan's people changed slightly. Bei Meng laughed thunderously and said, "Haha, your mouth is still so good, but later... It is not as simple as talking! Both sides will send out three people each. We already have a candidate. What about you!"

Nu Shuo's expression did not change, "We have also chosen!" As he spoke, he turned to a man in a long robe beside Bei Meng and said, "I wonder how we will appear?"

The man in the long robe was sent by the Violent Bear Clan to preside over the competition. He could be considered a notary. He said slowly, "Hand the name list to me. The method of drawing lots will determine who will compete with whom. Three consecutive matches will be held until the end!"

Nu Shuo nodded. He wrote down the names of the people he had chosen and handed them to the notary. The same went for Bei Meng.

The result came out very quickly. The people from the Angry Axe Clan were Nu Feng, Nu Lan, and Nu Tian! Nu Feng was the second strongest expert in the Angry Axe Clan, second only to the patriarch, Nu Shuo, while Nu Di was one of the top experts in the family. Although Nu Tian was young, his strength was almost the same as Nu Di's. The reason why Nu Shuo asked him to fight this time was to accumulate combat experience.

The Brave Axe Clan sent out Bei Meng's nephew, the captain of the Throwing Axe Team, Bei Shan, Bei Meng's younger brother, and a young man called Qier.

The result of the draw was Nu Feng against Bei Tong, Nu Di against Qier, and heaven against Bei Shan.

Nu Shuo said in a low voice, "Bei Tong's strength is at the fifth step, but Nu Feng is at the peak of the fifth step. It is enough to deal with him. Bei Shan is at the fourth step, so Tian'er will probably find it difficult to deal with him. She had never heard of this young man called Qier. If Nu Di could defeat him... We can win."

The first match was between Nu Feng and Bei Tong.
