Chapter 59
A piece of dried meat filled with intertwining tendons and did not have the slightest bit of fat would be hard to swallow with its tough texture .
However, it emanated an aroma of energy, the most alluring kind .
The giant Leicester silverback back was somehow intoxicated by the aroma . With its high intellect, it started to sniff around instinctively . It continued its greedy and frenzied rampage .
The fight with Tang Ling and its freedom were discarded aside .
It was a pure scent of energy! Its primal animal instinct started to take over . All it wanted was the piece of dry meat in Tang Ling’s hand .
However, it was not an easy task . The pesky little bug might not be a threat, but his sly movements and quick dodges drove the bear to despair . He was trying to dodge its attack and find a chance to consume the aromatic meat .
How could it let him succeed? The energy-filled meat should belong to itself, the noble silverback bear!
The man versus bear fight once again returned to a new climax after Tang Ling revealed the vicious beast meat .
However, after holding up for so long, Tang Ling was obviously losing the upper hand . His movements started to get arduous as the injuries on his body increased . He seemed as if he was going to collapse on the next second and was only holding up by sheer willpower .
The crowd did not know what drove the giant Leicester silverback bear into such a frenzied state . Tang Ling clenched the piece of meat in his hand after all, so other than the bear that sensed it in such a close range, no one else was sharp enough to notice the appearance of the meat .
Lionel was still as gloomy as though he resented why Tang Ling had yet to fall and face the judgment of his morals on the spot . At the same time, no one was able to notice the gleaming greed in his eyes either .

Half a minute went by . Tang Ling finally made a huge mistake in his dodging . Accompanied by the crowd’s shocked scream, his right hand was bitten by the bear .
“Ah!” An elegant lady covered his mouth with her handkerchief .
“Ugh!” A well-dressed gentleman could not bear the scene .
With his right hand bitten, what other chance did he have to escape? Logically, the scrawny kid would be ripped apart by the bear next . He performed decently even though he was met with injustice .
Someone was already thinking about whether or not to write to the Castellan after the exam to expose the injustice of the exam .
Nevertheless, Tang Ling’s luck surpassed the crowd’s expectations as he managed to free his hand .
Even though his hand was mangled by the sharp teeth of the bear to a bloody state, he managed to pull it out in a steady position that was followed by a side roll . He lay down less than ten meters away from the creature and panted heavily .
Some of the Purple Moon Warriors thought, ‘The game is still over . ’
The experts who understood the fight knew that the only chance of survival was to get as close to the bear as possible .
Drawing a distance from there bear was surely a sign that his stamina had reached its limit .
The tragedy was delayed only by seconds, and no one believed the outcome would be this bleak .
However, up until now, the one who hoped for Tang Ling’s death the most, Lionel, did not show any trace of excitement . He frowned and took out another cigarette to light up as if it would hurt Tang Ling’s flesh .
On the contrary, Tang Ling was lying down on the ground with heavy panting . His dark eyes showed no hint of panic . Instead, a cold grin appeared on his face .
One second, two seconds, ten seconds .
The unexpected happened once more . The giant Leicester silverback bear did not attack Tang Ling at all . It lay down lazily with an unusually humane and indescribable comforted expression .

What happened?
The lady who covered her mouth with the handkerchief unconsciously lowered her hand . Confusion was etched on the gentleman’s face .
No one had the answer to the scene . The crowd watched with their eyes wide open . Tang Ling, who was still panting a little while ago, slowly and arduously stood up .
Calmly, he tore a strip of his sleeve and slowly bandaged his right hand . He stared at the bear, his gaze from above making him look like he was the hunter in this bloody cage, and the bear was his poor prey .
“God, who can tell me what happened?” There were some who could not bear the suspense and cried out in shock . Tang Ling heard them with his own ears .
He turned around and suddenly smiled as he put his index finger in front of his lips and mouthed, “Shhhh . ”
What was this wonder kid trying to say?
That was right . Some people could not help but label Tang Ling as ‘the wonder kid’ .
It was indeed wondrous because, in the next second, the bear suddenly growled loudly and fell into a chaotic frenzied state .
Most of the crowd that witnessed it all shared the same thought . “God! Who can tell me why the bear suddenly broke down?”
The giant Leicester silverback bear that struggled fiercely on the spot suffered unspeakable pain . No bear could resist that piece of energy-filled meat, and no one would know how comforting it felt the first 20 seconds after swallowing it .
It had been starving for a long time . At first, its burning liver felt like it was soaking in a hot spring . Its whole body felt very comforted and soft as if it had just eaten a sweet fermented fruit .
All it wanted to do was lie down and quietly enjoy it, but the heavenly comfort lasted for less than 20 seconds .
A moment later, the warm energy that accumulated in its liver started to burn . It felt similar to a fire ant which no one would care about if there were one or two, but when there were more of them, it would be dangerous .
When it reached a certain point, it would be powerful enough to change qualitatively . The pain exploded!
The agony instantly filled every corner of the body as though tens of thousands of hornets were stinging it . Not even its bones were spared .
Those who had not experienced it would never understand how torturing it was with every second that went by .
Everyone present at the square had never experienced it before except for Tang Ling . He even precisely calculated that his weight was 67 kgs and the bear was 1,617 kgs .
The strip of vicious beast meat that he swallowed before was only 1 . 47 grams and the bear swallowed that piece that was 206 . 53 grams .
While their difference in body weight was approximately 30 times, the difference in the weight of the meat that they swallowed was more than a hundred times .
Even if there were uncertain elements, such as the giant Leicester silverback bear having stronger endurance than a human being, the difference in the number could provide a guarantee for the uncertainty .
Tang Ling never planned to eat the piece of Level 3 vicious beast meat himself from the very beginning . It was prepared specially for the bear .
It was because he himself had experienced it before, so he knew that when the energy in the body exploded, it would render one helpless and weak .
Did the giant Leicester silverback bear have stronger willpower than Tang Ling? Impossible .
Did it cultivate methods to direct the energy into its body? Impossible .

8 65Tales of the Legendary Scholar
They meet in the most unlikely moment and turned their life around. Freidrech newly arrived in his own nation's capital city, which is so foreign to him compared to his village's idyllic and nondiscriminatory atmosphere, after he is forced to come. Now, he is facing a royal prince and tells him to bow. This draws out one of his late father's teachings from the deepest recesses in his mind. "The blood of your great ancestors runs in your veins. Don't easily bow down to anyone, or accept suppression by any being, not even from a monarch, unless you pledge your allegiance to him. Also, giving in to oppression is directly telling the oppressor that you're easy prey and open for manipulation." He is uncertain on how to face this oppression right now. Will he bows or not? What will he do to uphold his father's words while keeping his life safe? As for the prince, Theodrech has nothing to do with Freidrech, so he wishes to let this slip, but the boy opens his mouth and proposes the most ludicrous challenge he ever heard and triggers his curiosity. "I, Freidrech Goederf Gerboud, son of the late Village Chief Louvel Gerboud of Wrilon, will challenge you, Your Highness, to a battle of riddles… If you win, I will not only bow but be your servant for the rest of my life." This amuses the prince. It is the first he met a boy of the same age who is not intimidated by the air of authority he projects. Rather, this boy challenges him. "Why are you so headstrong? In fact, bowing to me is an honor. You saw the King's noble Knights. When they saw me, they bowed," says Theodrech, testing Freidrech. "Allow me to be forward, Your Highness. For me, bowing to a monarch does not guarantee loyalty. If I were you, I rather have men who stand straight in my presence but who got my back, than bowing men who are dreaming of my death," replies Freidrech. The prince’s curiosity increases. A huge smile is seen on his face. Prince Theodrech decides to take Freidrech under his wing. Little did they know, this boy who Prince Theodrech takes in as his confidant and friend in the most ridiculous fashion is someone indispensable in his life and the one who can help him succeed the throne when he almost believes he has lost.

8 209Having a Common Game Ability In Normal Life
As long as i can remember, i can see something other people can't see Yes, on the top right of my vision, i have something that looks like a map, does it useful? how does something that blocks 1/32 of my vision to be useful? Does it have to be useful.. right? As i get older, this looks like "mini-map" in a video game that i played, so i decided to call this Mini-map at least I'm not the only one with this kind of thing.. from what I've found, everyone has different ability, for example my little sister can see another person status, there's a person that can heal wounds by eating meat, there's a person that once a day can spin roulette to get reward, there's a person that can jump twice in the air and there's a person that can throw fireballs..... wait a minute!? the story will be slow, since i just write this to train my english anyhow the idea of this story will be if someone can throw a fireball does their hand burns? if someone can jump for 30m can they survive the fall? if a bard play a song that can regen their allies, why’s the enemy isn’t regenerating? if a cleris creates a barrier can their allies attack from inside barrier? and About the first few chapter i know the grammar was really bad but it’ll help me if you guys read the first few chapter and go straight to the last and tell me have i improve or not P.S i hope The world has “common language” feature so everyone speak in the same tongue lol
