Is that what it means?

Zhou Xu's main task from now on was to focus all his efforts on making slings. Considering the possibility of damage and the need for temporary replacements, he needed to make at least ten of them.

He took on this task entirely by himself. After finishing, he also helped Butterfly and the others weave some bark bags, as Butterfly's handicraft team was truly swamped with work.

For the next two days, his main job was to stay in the tribe, oversee various internal affairs, and take time to watch Dashan and the others train with the slings.

As for teaching...

There was nothing left to teach. Slings themselves weren't complicated weapons, and he wasn't an expert in using cold weapons. He really couldn't handle teaching someone how to use a "weapon" like a "Weapon Master."

Dashan, for one, was better at it than him from the start. Now, after two days of practice, saying he had completely surpassed Zhou Xu seemed accurate.

This small experience made Zhou Xu realize the terrifying nature of "Talent."

Some people could effortlessly achieve things he couldn't do at all.

Then, looking back at himself, he still hadn't figured out the practical effects of his own "Evolutionary Leader" Talent.

As he was feeling melancholic, the tribal members practicing with slings in the distance let out a collective gasp due to Da Shi's accurate throw.

His throw had directly hit the wooden pole they had set up as a distance marker nearly a hundred meters away.

In primitive tribes like this, they mostly worshipped strength, and Da Shi's feat was enough to make the tribal members admire him to the core.

Facing the admiration from everyone, Da Shi scratched his head, a smile evident on his face.

"My eyesight has just gotten better recently, so I could see more clearly."

"I don't believe it. My eyesight has gotten better too, but I still can't hit it."

This was indeed not something that could be achieved by good eyesight alone, but to say Da Shi had no luck involved would be false.

Slings themselves weren't very accurate, let alone the stone projectile, which hadn't been polished at all, making its trajectory even harder to control.

The weapon's hardware was the limitation. You've only been practicing for a few days, even a Weapon Master wouldn't be effective!

Therefore, from Zhou Xu's perspective, he also believed Da Shi's throw was mostly luck.

However, compared to dwelling on that, another topic of conversation among the tribal members caught his attention.

"Dashan, you guys just said your eyesight has gotten better recently?"

Normally, eyesight, unless surgically corrected, only deteriorates, with no possibility of improvement.

But this kind of common-sense defying event had already happened once before, and it had happened to him!

At this moment, facing Zhou Xu's question, Dashan and the others nodded one after another.

Without time to think further, after signaling Dashan and the others to continue practicing, he rushed back to the tribe as quickly as possible.

"Butterfly, have you felt your eyesight improve recently?"

Being suddenly called by the chief and then asked such a question, Butterfly's expression was slightly stunned. After a moment of thought, she nodded.

"It seems so. It used to be difficult to see things after dark, but recently it feels less strenuous. I can see clearly at night with the firelight."

"What about you guys? Are you all the same?"

Zhou Xu turned to look at the others around him.

They hadn't really paid much attention to this matter before, as the handicraft team's main job was to focus on their work, looking at things up close, and their eyesight requirements weren't high to begin with.

But with Zhou Xu's question, and Butterfly's earlier statement, everyone suddenly realized that their eyesight seemed to have indeed changed!

Receiving everyone's feedback, Zhou Xu couldn't help but take a deep breath.

His eyesight improvement was because he had obtained the True Word of "Eye of Insight." After this True Word integrated into his body, it passively improved his eyesight.

But what about the changes that occurred in the other tribal members?

The power of the "Eye of Insight" True Word couldn't possibly have a connection with the other tribal members.

Under this premise, the only possibility he could think of was his Talent!

"Evolutionary Leader. So that's what it means!"

As he muttered to himself, Zhou Xu's expression gradually became excited.

"Meaning, my own improvement will directly impact my tribal members! Leading the people to achieve great evolution, is that what it means?!"

The question that had troubled him for a long time finally had an answer. Discovering the secret of his Talent made Zhou Xu unable to help but laugh out loud on the spot.

After a few deep breaths, Zhou Xu, who had forced himself to calm down, didn't disturb Butterfly and the others at their work. He directly called over a few members of the patrol team, had them line up, and then look in the same direction as him.

Through this simple confirmation method, Zhou Xu found that the degree of eyesight improvement for each tribal member was likely different, which should also be related to individual differences.

During this period, what could be confirmed was that the degree of improvement was not as much as his.

Even so, his Talent, from a long-term perspective, for a civilization with a large population base, was incredibly powerful, needing no further explanation.

If this pace continued, under the influence of his Talent, he and his people might truly evolve into a new species beyond humans.

As Zhou Xu was pondering this, Butterfly ran over.

"Leader."

"What is it?"

"As per your instructions, the furnace has been in for about the right amount of time."

Butterfly didn't say anything, and he almost forgot about it.

He hurried over to the stove, grabbed a stone axe, and dug open the sealed furnace opening.

At that moment, Zhou Xu could clearly feel a wave of heat rushing towards him.

Without any delay, he quickly dug open the furnace opening, then found a branch to push all the firewood out from inside.

After the temperature inside the furnace cooled down, he used two branches as chopsticks and prepared to pick out the clay bowls one by one.

"Huh?!"

As soon as he picked out the first one, Zhou Xu was already a little surprised.

The rim of this bowl was visibly uneven, and even the belly of the bowl was a bit bumpy.

Besides that, he wasn't sure if it was due to the heat, but the color of the bowl's body was also uneven, and visible pores could be seen.

Setting aside the issue of the pores, the uneven rim and belly meant this was undoubtedly the kind of defective product that should have been thrown into the trash the moment it came out of the furnace.

But Zhou Xu didn't care!

He tapped the body of the bowl, producing a light sound. All he cared about now was whether this bowl could hold water!

Of course, the answer to that question would have to wait. There were still many bowls in this furnace waiting for him to pick out.

In terms of appearance, none of these were up to standard. They were all flawed in various ways, and several had even cracked from the heat.

But at this moment, it didn't affect Zhou Xu's mood at all.

Because in Zhou Xu's opinion, as long as this method worked, it was fine! If some cracked, they cracked. He was afraid that not a single one would come out successfully!
