Let's make this clear first: Xiong Jun was absolutely not afraid. He simply did not want to clash with Di Tian.
Who didn't know that Xiong Jun was the friendliest beast around? O(≧▽≦)O
"I knew Uncle Xiong Jun was the most generous. You'd never do something so stingy."
Su Yu smiled warmly, while the Three-Eyed Golden Lion beneath him nodded repeatedly.
Xiong Jun forced a smile, but inwardly he cursed furiously.
Running into these two little ancestors was truly Xiong Jun's bad luck.
All this time, who had ever dared to extort Xiong Jun? Unless they no longer wanted to live.
But when facing these two little ancestors, even Xiong Jun did not dare show the slightest neglect.
With no other choice, Xiong Jun crouched down again, his mountain-like backside raised high as his huge paw rummaged through the tree hollow.
Su Yu craned his neck and watched curiously.
This tree hollow had to be Xiong Jun's treasure vault. Who knew what he had hidden inside?
Before long, Xiong Jun pulled out a beehive roughly three meters wide. Holding it in his paw, his face was full of reluctance.
"Young Master, I can only give you this much. I need to save some of the rest for myself."
Xiong Jun spoke with a pained expression.
"Sure, sure."
Su Yu's figure flashed, and in an instant, he returned to his original spot.
However, a beehive more than three meters tall had appeared in his arms.
An incomparably fresh, sweet fragrance wafted from the hive.
Su Yu focused his gaze on it. Within the hive, the golden honey was exceptionally enticing.
One look was enough to tell that it was excellent honey.
It would not be an exaggeration to call it a special kind of Heavenly Material and Earthly Treasure.
"This is Golden Jade Dragon Bee honey?" Su Yu asked in surprise.
The Golden Jade Dragon Bee was a particularly unusual type of bee Soul Beast.
The word "dragon" in its name meant that this type of bee possessed a faint trace of Dragon Clan bloodline.
Not only were Golden Jade Dragon Bees ferocious, but their honey was also among the sweetest and most precious of all bee-type Soul Beasts.
Consuming Golden Jade Dragon Bee honey could strengthen one's physique. It was also immensely beneficial for nourishing the meridians and improving one's innate constitution.
Its value was no less than that of certain precious spiritual herbs and fruits.
"This is honey produced by ten-thousand-year Golden Jade Dragon Bees. It's very precious."
Reluctance still lingered in Xiong Jun's eyes. This was part of his collection.
There had not been much to begin with, yet Su Yu had taken a share of it.
His life was truly miserable!
"Uncle Xiong Jun is so generous!" Su Yu gave him a thumbs-up.
Although Xiong Jun looked as though he guarded his food fiercely, he really was willing to give.
And everything he gave was good stuff!
"Uncle Xiong Jun truly is a pillar of our Soul Beast clan."
"One person below, ten thousand above. In the future, the burden of the Soul Beast clan will still need Beast Kings as capable as Uncle Xiong Jun to share it."
Su Yu casually flattered him.
After taking so many good things from Xiong Jun, he would have felt bad if he did not say a few nice words.
"Young Master flatters me."
Xiong Jun scratched his head, appearing rather humble.
Yet his grin stretched as wide as a lotus flower, and the upturned corners of his mouth were harder to suppress than an AK.
Even the Young Master, the Dragon God Reincarnation, said he was a pillar of the Soul Beast clan. See? The Young Master truly had an eye for talent.
Unlike Di Tian, who spent all day calling him stupid and reckless. Hmph, what did he know?
Once Xiong Jun mastered his divine arts, he would definitely drag Di Tian down from his position.
He, Xiong Jun!
Would be the number one Beast King beneath Master and the Young Master.
With just two sentences from Su Yu, Xiong Jun had already begun envisioning that wonderful future.
Watching Xiong Jun grin foolishly, Su Yu secretly twitched at the corner of his mouth.
No wonder Di Tian always said Xiong Jun was stupid. His intelligence really was not obvious.
Calling him strong-limbed and simple-minded would not be wrong at all.
No wonder the Dark Gold Claw Bear clan had so many simpletons. It turned out it started with their leader.
As he watched Xiong Jun grin stupidly, an idea suddenly flashed through Su Yu's mind. His eyes shifted as a thought surfaced.
He deliberately let out a long sigh. "Sigh!"
"Young Master, why did you suddenly sigh?" Xiong Jun asked curiously.
"I suddenly remembered something."
Su Yu spoke solemnly. "When I was traveling across the continent before, I once encountered an expert, and we had a conversation."
"When we spoke of the Ten Great Savage Beasts, I said that although Beast God Di Tian was the strongest Savage Beast in the Star Dou Great Forest, the one with the greatest potential was actually Xiong Jun, the leader of the Dark Gold Claw Bear clan."
"The Dark Gold Claw and Sky-Tearing Claw of the Dark Gold Claw Bear clan are even more unmatched beneath the heavens."
"I said that given enough time, Xiong Jun might not be unable to become the number one Savage Beast in the Star Dou Great Forest."
The moment Su Yu said this, Xiong Jun nodded repeatedly. As expected of the Young Master—he truly had an eye for heroes.
I, Xiong Jun, have this much potential!
My Dark Gold Claw Bear clan is just this strong!
"However..."
"However what?" Xiong Jun hurriedly pressed.
"However, that expert held a different opinion. He said that aside from Beast God Di Tian, all the other Soul Beasts in the Star Dou Great Forest were worthless."
"Xiong Jun in particular was simply a brainless idiot."
"The moment he said that, I couldn't stand it anymore. I questioned him, saying that Xiong Jun was a renowned wise man of the Star Dou Great Forest. How was he stupid? And Xiong Jun was famously powerful. If you have the ability, go challenge Xiong Jun to a duel. Xiong Jun will definitely beat you until you can't take care of yourself."
"He said that sooner or later, he would go to the Star Dou Great Forest to challenge Xiong Jun. He would prove to me that the so-called Xiong Jun was nothing special."
"He also said that he would hunt a few Dark Gold Claw Bears and make Soul Rings for his students!"
"What?"
"You shameless bastard, how arrogant!!!"
"Young Master, who is this bastard? I will tear him apart alive! How dare he humiliate me like this!!!"
Xiong Jun threw back his head and roared, his eyes filled with violent killing intent.
What he hated most was people calling him stupid.
And that bastard actually dared look down on him like this.
He was Xiong Jun!!!
Not to mention that fellow even dared hunt his clansmen. He was simply courting death!!!
"He called himself Xuan Zi, the Taotie Douluo of Shrek Academy. He usually liked to hang a wine gourd from his waist, and he always had a chicken leg in his hand. He dressed like a complete slob. At a glance, he did not look like anyone particularly capable."
"Yet he was so arrogant. Uncle Xiong Jun, can you endure him talking about you like that?"
"Of course I can't endure it! Taotie Douluo, what a Taotie Douluo. If you want to die, I will grant your wish."
Xiong Jun let out repeated roars, his killing intent filling the sky.
Su Yu watched quietly, a smile in his eyes.
His deliberate provocation had simply been a spur-of-the-moment idea.
In truth, while traveling the continent, he had had some friction with Shrek Academy.
As for who had started it, it certainly could not have been him.
He did not like causing trouble.
But Shrek Academy's motto was that those who did not dare cause trouble were mediocre.
Besides, he had never held any favorable impression of Shrek Academy. Even when reading the original work, he had disliked Shrek.
