The Beast King's Little Wife

The matter concerned both annihilation and territorial expansion, and the normally lazy females were all excited at this moment.

“I used to only see my sisters go to fight. I heard it was very brutal, and sometimes you had to make sacrifices in the battle. But it was also very exciting. As long as we won, everyone could get a lot of meat and more territory. We wouldn’t go hungry anymore. If we came in first place, it would mean that we could have the best territory.”

Expanding and annexing territory—the territory of the number one player is always the best. This principle remains unchanged everywhere.

“But if we fall into poverty, we’ll be taken in by males from other villages. We might even be sold into slavery. I’ve heard that being a slave is really tough. Some males in the city don’t treat us slaves like human beings. So I still want this peaceful life I have now.”

……

Listening to the various discussions among the females in the room, Lin Dujuan fell silent.

She looked at everyone present and suddenly asked a question.

"Didn't you ever think that we could fight alongside the males in the hunting trials? We are not their appendages, but human beings with flesh and blood. If we are willing, why can't we step up and take the lead!"

"what?"

All the females were stunned.

They all stared at her blankly.

"We...go to fight? But in all the trials over the years, I've never heard of females participating in hunting and fighting. It's said that we females have always been responsible for cleaning up the wild animals we hunt, drying them, and taking care of the teeth and bones that symbolize the various beasts. Nothing else is used."

"Why are we only considered the weak? We have many men who can be used as males in the hunt! Do you think all males are stronger than us? And if I'm not mistaken, isn't this kind of trial likely to cause a bloodbath? If people from two villages clash, isn't the possibility of a full-blown fight high?"

Yesterday, Tiger Mom was evasive and didn't go into much detail about the trial. But Lin Dujuan sensed something was amiss.

She had a feeling that once the trial began, it wouldn't be as simple as just hunting. There might even be battles between villages.

"During the return trials, were there any females who didn't make it back?"

"This..." Her two consecutive questions stumped the females present.

"I've heard that quite a few females die during the trials every year. Nobody says exactly how. Everyone's used to these deaths. So..." It was A-Ye who stammered out these words.

"I understand. So, in order to survive, in order to survive this trial, what we need to do is to live as hard as we can. To live as hard as we can, we have to train even harder than men."

Lin Dujuan's last words ignited the passion in the females present.

"We can live just like males!"

Ahua asked softly. Lin Dujuan had also heard that her husband was a bit rude and would beat and scold her at the drop of a hat.

"Yes, we can do it too. The premise is that we must establish ourselves. Now our breeding, planting, and logistics are all starting to get on track. When we are training, Tiger Mom and the village mothers and aunts manage things, so we don't have to worry too much. So actually, we have a lot of time."

“I think, Tiger Tooth Wife, you can be the captain of our female work team. From now on, we will all listen to you.”

"Be the captain!"

Lin Dujuan hadn't expected this group to want to elect her as their leader. Was this some kind of women's work team leader? Uh, this...

"You can do it. I think you definitely can."

Ahua and Aye also agreed to nominate her.

“Alright, we’re going to organize this work team. How about this, I’ll be the team leader for now. We also need to choose a few deputy team leaders. Also, we have a lot of people, there are no less than a hundred females going to participate in the trial this time. With so many people, it’s not enough for just a few of us to manage them. I propose that we form small teams of ten people each.”

Each small team will then select a team leader. From now on, when we need to assign tasks or formulate plans, we will directly hand over responsibilities to the team leader.

The squad leader is responsible for everything and everyone within their squad. You two are responsible for managing the sub-squad leaders. And I'm responsible for managing the two of you.

Being a manager also requires knowing how to manage. If you try to manage everything, big or small, you'll be exhausted. Only by delegating tasks and assigning responsibilities to specific individuals can you free yourself up and prevent chaos within the team. Lin Dujuan employed military-style management methods in this regard.

"Alright, that's settled then. We'll supervise their selection of a team leader and give you the spot for this trip. Team leader, you'll be in charge of developing our training plan."

A training plan needs to be developed as soon as possible. Time is running out for the village.

This time, they were a little better off because they learned about the trial a month earlier than other villages. This gave them an extra month to train.

The squad leader was chosen that very day.

Twelve team leaders.

Lin Dujuan was in charge of the two vice-captains, Ahua and Aye, who in turn were each in charge of six squad leaders. The females found this kind of team division and management quite novel, and they chattered among themselves.

However, when Lin Dujuan took out the training plan book made of animal hide, the females present were somewhat intimidated.

"You have to crawl through mud, climb cliffs, and... fight alongside wild beasts you've hunted..."

They also needed to make tools, arrows, spears...

The females had never heard of such a plan. Even the males had never heard of fighting living wild animals.

"Fighting live beasts is a hurdle we must overcome. And there's no room for luck. Of course, this hurdle can be tackled later. It's not easy for the males to capture live beasts right now either."

"Think about why males stand arrogantly in front of us, pointing their fingers at us and cursing. They can even hit and yell at us? It's because... they've paid the price with their blood and sweat, while we only know how to please them in bed. If you were a male in this situation, would you respect such a female?"

This questioning silenced the females.

Finally, it's unclear who shouted it out first.

“We need to stand up...we need the respect we deserve.”

"Stand up...stand up..."

A violent roar swept in like a storm.

Not far away, Tiger Mom and Sam both heard it, and in their eyes, there was a deep sense of anticipation...
