Yang Yu did not look pleased as he watched Yang Feng, captain of the Hunting Team, complete the task first. He said, "Where are your teammates?"
"Ah?"
Hearing the clan chief's words, Yang Feng looked at him in bewilderment.
"I asked you, where are your teammates?"
Yang Yu stared at Yang Feng before him and asked in a deep voice.
"Behind us." The Hunting Team captain, Yang Feng, hurriedly turned to look at his teammates behind him, who were nearly exhausted. He did not even think of helping them.
Seeing Yang Feng's behavior, Yang Yu shook his head in disappointment. "You truly did not hear a single word of what I said."
"Clan chief, I..."
Yang Feng had just started to explain when Yang Yu, his face dark, waved a hand to stop him.
After everyone had finished running the required number of laps.
He looked at the Hunting Team members, who stood crookedly and unsteadily, and his eyes were filled with coldness.
"C-Clan chief, c-can we eat?"
A Da scratched his head and foolishly asked the clan chief, whose face was sour.
"Eat?"
"Do you think you are qualified to eat?"
Yang Yu looked coldly at all the Hunting Team warriors present. "Especially you, Feng."
"Half an hour ago, I explained that you must help one another. What did you do?"
"You abandoned your teammates. Furthermore, you are the captain of the Hunting Team. Aren't you ashamed?"
Hearing the clan chief's words, Yang Feng, a burly man, could not help lowering his head.
He was ashamed.
"Remember, no matter when or where, you must help one another. Do not abandon anyone, and do not give up."
"Especially your fellow clansmen."
"Your fellow clansmen are the hope that allows you to survive in the Great Wilderness. Would you dare entrust your back to outsiders?"
"Perhaps you do not understand, but I must tell you this."
"In the Great Wilderness, you can only rely on your fellow clansmen. You cannot rely on outsiders."
"People's hearts are complicated. No one knows whether an outsider will fire an arrow or attack you with a stone spear when your back is turned."
"But I must ensure that nothing like this happens in the Hunting Team. If it does, the offender will be removed from the clan records and expelled from the tribe."
Yang Yu looked seriously at the Hunting Team members present and said, "Feng completed the challenge alone because he did not help his Hunting Team brothers. No one gets to eat. Everyone will stand here."
"If anyone cannot hold on, they may choose to leave the Hunting Team. They will also lose the Hunting Team's food allowance."
At this, everyone present changed expression, but no one objected.
Yang Yu walked over and looked at the group standing crookedly like warped melons and cracked dates. He shouted in a deep voice, "Raise your heads. Straighten your chests. Pull in your stomachs."
"What is your chest? Your torso."
Yang Yu patted A Da's chest and said, "This is your abdomen. Also, put your legs together. Why are you spreading them apart?"
"What are you?"
"The Hunting Team."
"What is the Hunting Team's duty?"
"Is the Hunting Team only responsible for capturing food for the tribe?"
"No, no, no."
"Let me tell you what the Hunting Team is."
"The Hunting Team does not merely hunt food for the tribe. It is also the tribe's guardian."
"A guardian?"
A Er scratched his head and looked at his clan chief in confusion.
Was he talking about the Heavenly God?
"'Guardian' is merely a title. It does not refer to the gods of fantasy."
"How many of you work hard for the sake of hearing your wives call you husband, or your children call you father?"
"If so, step forward."
Yang Yu spoke in a deep voice.
As soon as he finished speaking.
Other than A Da and A Er, the few dark-skinned men of the Hunting Team stepped forward.
"Tell me, why did you join the Hunting Team?"
Yang Yu walked to You's side and asked him.
"Clan chief, I joined the Hunting Team so that my wife and child could obtain more food." Yang You spoke loudly.
Every time he heard his daughter call him Father, the fatigue of the entire day would suddenly vanish.
Yang Yu went on to question everyone in the Hunting Team. They all gave the same answer, and he could not help shaking his head in disappointment.
"I understand what you have said."
"But have you ever considered this? Without your family or your tribe, would you still have the life you lead today?"
As soon as he finished speaking.
The members of the Hunting Team fell silent once again.
That was true!
Without a tribe or a family, would they still have the lives they led now?
Obviously not.
"Feng, let me ask you this. If someone wanted to bully your wife or child, what would you do? Would you agree to it?"
Yang Yu's gaze rested on Yang Feng as he questioned him.
"No! If anyone bullies my wife or child, I will fight him to the death."
Yang Feng spoke firmly.
He would always protect his family behind him and never let them suffer harm.
"And you?"
Yang Yu looked toward the other Hunting Team members.
Their answers, however, were all the same.
"The Hunting Team is not merely responsible for hunting. It is also made up of warriors who defend our home."
"If you do not have strong bodies, how can you protect our home?"
"Remember my words."
"First comes the tribe, then comes the family."
"If the tribe is gone, will the family still exist?"
"No matter when or where, you must place the tribe's interests before those of your family."
Yang Yu constantly instilled in this group the concept that the country came before the family.
That way.
The Hunting Team would come to shoulder the important responsibility of not only hunting, but also protecting the clan.
It was equivalent to instilling military knowledge in them ahead of time.
Over the next month or so.
Under Yang Yu's relentless indoctrination, the Hunting Team gradually accepted the idea that the tribe came before the family.
Their bodies also grew increasingly stronger. Their strength, endurance, speed, and other attributes all improved considerably.
Primitive people already possessed exceptionally strong physiques.
With meticulous training added to that.
Their physical condition was something people of later generations could never match.
They underwent physical training in the morning and practiced the Bow and Arrow, flint spear throwing, and other exercises in the afternoon.
The changes in the Hunting Team were also noticed by the tribespeople.
Although they did not understand why the clan chief was doing this, they all knew how extraordinary he was, so they did not make any inappropriate moves.
"Yu, they..." Lin Er looked at the Hunting Team as they trained, hesitating to speak.
Could the Hunting Team truly take on the responsibility of exploring the Great Wilderness for the tribe?
"Lin Er, put your mind at ease."
"The Hunting Team is completely different from how it was before."
"If two tribes went to war, I believe our tribe would definitely win."
Yang Yu spoke with absolute confidence.
After all, he had brought many modern training methods to this era.
There was no need to worry.
If they truly encountered another tribe, the Hunting Team would have the strength to fight.
A professionally trained regular army could be distinguished from a ragtag force at a glance.
He could even borrow a certain big shot's line:
With more on our side, Advantage is Mine.
"Alas, the Hunting Team's current condition is causing the tribe's consumption to increase. I'm afraid it has become a heavy burden on the tribe."
Lin Er's expression was solemn. "Especially when it comes to tools. The tribe has no problem with meat, but the wear and tear on the tools is impossible to solve! The clan elders are even making the hunting tools themselves."
"It's fine. They will see the results. Their results can already be predicted."
