nHe went to Silly Girl and told her his decision.

nDi Baijun nodded and agreed without any hesitation. This was something that they had already discussed and agreed upon.

nAt once, Wang Hu entered the dinosaur world and began a large-scale hunt.

nHe needed to prepare a sufficient amount of food that could last Silly Girl and the children for a long time, so that Silly Girl could remain at home the whole time to protect Big Treasure and Little Treasure just in case.

nAfter a day’s work, he left behind roughly ten days’ worth of food. After he ate and filled his stomach as well, Wang Hu left home by himself.

nIn the snowy white world that one couldn’t see the end, Wang Hu’s form quickly vanished from sight.

nAt some point in time, Di Baijun had walked out of the cave. She stared in the direction in which that figure had vanished.

nSuddenly, a thought popped up in her mind.

nI wonder when that jerk will be back.

nThe next moment, she suppressed the thought with embarrassed anger.

nWho cares even if that jerk dies?

nHe’d best die out there and not come back. Saves me the trouble of having to kill him myself in the future.

nShe let out a huge snort and then, with her chin raised, arrogantly walked back into the cave.

nIn the pure white snow, Wang Hu braved the cold wind and ran in the mountains.

nAs though evaporating water, mist rose around him as he ran.

nAlso, wherever he had left his tracks, a large chunk of the snow on the ground melted as if they had been roasted atop a stove.

nActually, given Wang Hu’s current physique, the heat that he produced when he ran with full Blood Qi power really might not be much lower than that of most typical stoves.

nA shoulder height of about five meters, a body length of about 8.8 meters, and a tail length of about 4.4 to 4.5 meters—this was his current size.

nAfter four to five months of diligent cultivation and an ample amount of dinosaur meat—even though Wang Hu didn’t think much of his enhanced speed and even found it rather slow, it was—in truth—actually very fast.

nCompared to the little stream from when he had first broken through, the Blood Qi in him had already become a small river.

nThe might contained in every bit of his Blood Qi had also become stronger. Just like boiling lava, it was masculine and virile, bold and powerful.

nHe didn’t know exactly how strong he currently was either… because there wasn’t anyone that was his match—including Silly Girl who mistakenly believed that she was frequently beating him up.

nOf course, this didn’t include Silly Girl’s trump card during times of life and death.

nMoreover, his true strength was about to improve by leaps and bounds again. He needed only another few days, and the number on the Map of the Universe would reach ‘2’ soon.

nWhen that happened and Extreme Agility Time upgraded to the second stage, his capabilities would inevitably also greatly improve.

nHowever, this was limited to just his capabilities—in other words, his actual combat strength.

nIn terms of his cultivation realm, he hadn’t gone far in the Second Realm yet. There was still a great distance between him and the peak.

nCultivation ultimately wasn’t that easy, especially when—according to Silly Girl—there was still insufficient spiritual energy in this world.

nEven in China—where the amount of spiritual energy had greatly increased because of Zhang Dingguo’s tomb, thereby making it the place with the highest concentration of spiritual energy in the world; the current amount of spiritual energy there was only enough for living things to develop until the peak of the Second Realm.

nFrom this, one could tell that the cultivation of the Second Realm was actually very difficult at this current period.

nAccording to Silly Girl, if one wanted the concentration level of spiritual energy to reach a point where it was possible for Third Realm experts to form, going by the current rate at which spiritual energy was increasing, they would need to wait for another three years.

nGoing by what she had said, a total of five-odd years would be enough for the Third Realm to come into existence in this part of the world. This was an extremely fast spiritual energy recovery rate.

nWang Hu didn’t understand those things. He only knew one thing—get stronger. He had to try his best to become strong faster.

nHe raced through the forests at a high speed. This particular direction was headed toward where Er Hu’s turf had been in the past. Two years had gone by. He didn’t know how Er Hu was currently doing either.

nSince he had set out this time, then he would take a look.

nHe could normally execute his plan—search for signs of tigers and impart them the method of cultivation for the First Realm—on the way there.

nBack when Li Tong had first shown up, Wang Hu had already mentioned to Silly Girl his plan to impart the way of cultivation to tigers and let the tigers grow and develop on their own.

nWhen they were strong enough and when a suitable opportunity arose, that would be the moment where they would gather the tigers and dominate a region.

nUnlike Silly Girl whose mind was likely more on the clan’s glory and her own sense of responsibility to the clan, thereby leading to her wanting to gather the tigers and make the clan stronger; the bigger reason behind why Wang Hu wanted to do this was because of himself and his family.

nThe concept of strength in numbers was something that he approved very much of.

nFor example, if he had a few moderately strong tigers that had already developed human intelligence, he and Silly Girl wouldn’t have had to so painstakingly go hunting by themselves anymore.

nChina would inevitably also value him more.

nThe benefits were self-evident.

nAnother one would be… which man had never once dreamed of ruling the world in sobriety and resting in a beauty’s lap in drunkenness?

nWang Hu also wanted to. In fact, very much so.

nPower was no different from poison itself.

nWhen he was human, he’d also seen such poison before and knew just how tasty and delicious it was. In fact, its tastiness and deliciousness had even surpassed what he had imagined.

nIt was just that he didn’t have the ability to fight for it and take it back by then.

nAs a tiger, he now had the ability and the opportunity… so how would he possibly not strive for it?

nWang Hu, Tiger King1~

nWithout power or privileges, what kind of king would he be?

nHe didn’t think that there was anything wrong in feeling that way either.

nAmbition, right? It was something that everyone had.

nThe difference lay only in whether it was strong or weak, as well as whether one had the ability and opportunity to realize it or not.

nWang Hu was a man. He had ambition; he wanted to rule the world and rest in a beauty’s lap. This was something that couldn’t be any more normal.

nHe sped the entire way. Despite how the mountains had become taller by dozens of meters and how the lands had become even vaster compared to the past—with Wang Hu’s speed, he took only a few hours to reach Er Hu’s old turf.

nOn the way, he even encountered three tigers and imparted them the cultivation method for the First Realm.

nA hint of a smile surfaced as he sniffed the air lightly—that guy was still here.

nPhysical constitution wasn’t the only thing that improved when one’s level of cultivation became higher; one’s sense of smell also improved along with it.

nOtherwise, he wouldn’t have been able to find three tigers right away during his few hours of traveling either.

nHe identified a direction and ran there. More than ten minutes later, Wang Hu spotted that familiar yet also somewhat estranged figure outside a cave.

nIt was Er Hu!

nRoar~!

n“Er Hu.”

nHe called out in a tone that was neither fierce nor casual. The next moment, Er Hu—who had also spotted Wang Hu—trembled all over a little, and the younger brother immediately took off with a fearful look in his eyes.

nThe corner of Wang Hu’s eye twitched. As expected, that fellow was asking for a beating again.

nHe caught up to that dimwit after just a dozen or so jumps. With a smack of his paw, he swatted Er Hu onto the ground, causing the latter to roll quite a few times.

nAt once, the fellow rolled onto his back, exposing his belly and pointing all four limbs at the sky. He let out several whimpers filled with his pleas for mercy, behaving exactly like how he had when Wang Hu had taught him a lesson or two during his childhood.

nWang Hu immediately felt a sense of intimacy when the sight came to his eyes. He reached out his front paw in a familiar gesture and gave Er Hu a good rubbing on the head.

nEr Hu continued to whimper in a low voice, not daring to put up any resistance in the least.

nWang Hu observed him closely and was pleasantly surprised to see that the fellow’s eyes were reflecting quite a bit more human intelligence.

nEr Hu had a shoulder height of roughly 2.1 meters and a body length of roughly 3.7 meters. In the Tiger clan of the past, he would have been considered old at his twelve years of age. Yet, he didn’t show any sign of old age now and was full of vitality and vigor.

nEvidently, it was because he had been practicing the cultivation method that Wang Hu had imparted to him back then during these couple of years that he managed to develop so quickly.

nHe didn’t let Wang Hu down after all.

nRoar~!

n“Get up.”

nWang Hu retracted his paw after a light roar.

nEr Hu cast a somewhat fearful glance at Wang Hu before cautiously getting back up onto his feet.

nAs Wang Hu watched him, he also thought to himself: “Even though I came here because I missed him for a moment there, I can’t just leave so quickly either.”

nGiven that fellow’s size, he was still a little too weak. However, if he coordinated his movements with Old Third—Wang Hu’s youngest brother, he might be still able to survive in the dinosaur world.

nThe moment the thought came to Wang Hu, he made up his mind after thinking about it a little.

nHe would start the grooming with Old Second and Old Third—no, if he encountered the eight tigers to whom he’d imparted the cultivation method back then, he could also bring them along with him.

nHe had already taught them how to cultivate back then. As long as they had been diligently cultivating during the last two years, their development rate would naturally be faster than other tigers.

nIf they acted with more caution, they would still be able to survive in the dinosaur world. As long as they could survive, they would naturally become stronger quickly.

nAs for possible accidents…

nWang Hu wasn’t really bothered. After all, was there anywhere out there that one could survive without accidents for sure?

nAfter he made up his mind, he summoned Old Second over and started to walk toward Old Third’s old turf.

nEr Hu glanced at his cave. It was evident that he was reluctant to go with Wang Hu, but he ultimately still obediently followed him at the back in the end.

nA few hours later, they arrived at Old Third’s old turf only to find themselves somewhat disappointed.

nThere was no sign of Old Third’s scent here anymore. Evidently, he must have either already moved away or died.

nWang Hu didn’t waste any time. He continued to search for tigers and impart them the cultivation method while he brought Old Second back home.

nHe was pretty lucky in the meantime and found another one of the ten tigers from back then.

nWhen he returned home two days later, he immediately sent Old Second and one of the ten tigers from back then together into the dinosaur world.

nHe also gave them a dinosaur carcass. When they ate the dinosaur flesh, even the look in their eyes became somewhat different. Evidently, they had discovered the benefits of the dinosaur flesh.

nWang Hu smiled. Then, he brought them to an area that had originally been the T-Rex’s turf and left them to survive on their own.

nThe dinosaur world was one where spiritual energy still existed, though it was only barely enough to sustain them until they reached the Transformation Realm.

nTogether with the dinosaur flesh, although letting Old Second and the other tiger stay here would never achieve the same effect that Wang Hu and his family had achieved when they were living in the original world, it was still far better than what it was when they had been by themselves.

nAfter leaving Old Second and the other tiger, Wang Hu then brought a freshly-hunted dinosaur back home and updated Silly Girl about the situation. Silly Girl naturally didn’t have any objections.

nWhen it came to the clan’s glory and her sense of responsibility toward the clan, hers was much stronger than Wang Hu’s. The two couldn’t be compared at all.

nWang Hu didn’t stay long. After playing with the two little fellows for a while, he set off once more and continued to carry out his plan.

nIn the twinkling of an eye, three days had gone by. On the third evening, Wang Hu returned home and started to level up his Extreme Agility Time ability.

nAlthough Silly Girl—someone that still hated him very much—was here, for some reason, nevertheless; he felt that this was the safest place of all.

nHe gazed at the number ‘2’ that symbolized that it had already been a whole 800 days since the awakening of spiritual energy. More than two years had passed.

nHe controlled it in a practiced manner. At once, the light spot that represented Extreme Agility Time started to glow and enlarge.

nWhen he arrived at that inexplicable dimension once more, he began to closely observe the changes in his body with his consciousness.

nUnder the effect of the mysterious power, the path-like patterns representing his Extreme Agility Time special ability started to become even more complex and distinct.

nAs Wang Hu watched on despite not understanding anything at all, he somehow didn’t find it annoying at all and wanted to just continue watching.

nAt the mouth of the cave, Di Baijun appeared at midnight once more. The look in her eyes was as if she was somewhat questioning her life.

nHis special ability has leveled up again!

nHow is it… that that jerk is so talented?

n1 His name is ‘Tiger King’ flipped backward. It’s made up of the Chinese characters for ‘king’ (wang) and ‘tiger’ (hu).
