Chapter 111: Chapter 111: Collective Revelry

Seeing Zeke’s abrupt end to his performance, Luna Sutton was stunned, then couldn’t help but burst into laughter.

That guy had a look like he was nauseous and wanted to vomit, it was truly hilarious.

Zeke approached with a cold expression, his face still looking as though he’d eaten something disgusting: “Luna Sutton, you’d better remember what you said.”

Luna Sutton raised her eyebrows, her smile innocent: “Don’t worry, I keep my promises. But your performance ended so suddenly? Afraid those females would rush up and ’devour you alive’?”

Zeke’s face darkened, his gaze icy: “Shut up.”

She shrugged, her expression indifferent.

Anyway, the task was complete.

Almost as soon as she thought this, she heard the cheerful voice of the system in her mind.

“Ding, congratulations to the host for completing hidden task five: Successfully getting Zeke and Malachi Arcanus to perform voluntarily at the bonfire party. Reward: system map activation!”

“Ding! System map has been successfully activated, allowing the host to view resources within a certain range. Please check automatically moving forward.”

Upon hearing the system’s notification, Luna Sutton grinned widely, feeling elated.

This was a system map, meaning she wouldn’t have to wander around aimlessly like a headless fly anymore; it was simply like having a cheat code!

She was mulling over this.

Corbin Crowley and Kian Sterling were already standing on either side of her, eyes fixed intently on her, each carrying a hint of “make your move”.

Corbin Crowley with a cold face, his silver eyes slightly narrowed: “What are my conditions?”

Kian Sterling smiled playfully at her, his fox-like eyes curving into crescents: “Cynthia, you can’t play favorites, oh~”

Luna Sutton rubbed her chin, her mind racing.

Corbin Crowley was domineering and proud, while Kian Sterling seemed gentle but was actually scheming and cunning. For a moment, she truly couldn’t decide what conditions to propose.

Since she couldn’t think of anything, she decided to keep it for now.

Who knows when that freaky system might suddenly assign her a bizarre task.

Maybe that request would come in handy then.

Thinking like this, she looked at Corbin Crowley and Kian Sterling, “I haven’t decided on the conditions yet, how about I keep it for later and let you know when I’ve figured it out? It won’t be anything you can’t handle, anyway.”

Corbin Crowley frowned, clearly dissatisfied with this answer, but didn’t say much.

Kian Sterling continued to smile gently, as if he didn’t mind: “Alright, then let me know when you think of something.”

Meanwhile, the performances on stage were still ongoing.

The Beastmen took turns performing, each showing their own style, although they paled in comparison to Corbin Crowley, Rhys Blackwood, Kian Sterling, and Malachi Arcanus.

The females also rushed to take the stage, some mimicking birds flying, others flowers blooming.

But these movements, in Luna Sutton’s eyes, were just like moths fluttering madly.

Not even as good as a bunch of dancing grannies.

Maya Miller’s performance was nothing special, not even as good as her sister Mia’s dance.

At most, it was like a beginner level dancing granny.

As one performance after another ended, Luna Sutton naturally won the best female performance.

Lyle Sutton stood on the high platform, his gaze sweeping across the room, his voice strong: “Tonight’s performances were truly spectacular! Especially Corbin Crowley, Rhys Blackwood, Kian Sterling, and Malachi Arcanus, their performances were flawless, deserving of the title of top warriors in the tribe! As a reward, I will grant each of them a precious Beast Crystal Stone to aid in their breakthrough!”

He didn’t mention Zeke, not because Zeke’s performance wasn’t good, but rather it was very impressive.

However, his performance ended suddenly halfway through, and even though he’s Luna’s Beast Husband, it’s not fitting to be too biased.

As his words fell, the crowd exclaimed.

Beast Crystal Stones were rare cultivation resources, only the leader had the authority to distribute them.

Lyle Sutton’s generosity this time clearly showed he was extremely pleased with Corbin Crowley, Rhys Blackwood, Kian Sterling, and Malachi Arcanus’ performances.

However, everyone sharply noticed that the leader did not mention Zeke’s name.

Instantly, everyone’s attention turned to Zeke’s face.

Zeke’s expression was extremely unpleasant. Had he known earlier that the reward was Beast Crystal Stones, he would’ve endured to finish his performance regardless.

These were treasures that could break boundaries; his heart couldn’t be more regretful.

Just imagining Corbin Crowley, Rhys Blackwood, Kian Sterling, and Malachi Arcanus obtaining Beast Crystal Stones, and surpassing him in power, made him look increasingly uncomfortable.

At this moment, Luna Sutton almost felt sorry for Zeke, but it was his choice, so she didn’t say much.

Lyle Sutton, naturally, was indifferent to Zeke’s expression, turning his gaze to Luna Sutton, “As for our tribe’s females, tonight’s best performance was unquestionably Luna’s. Although not a traditional tribal dance, it was unique, novel, full of spirit, strength, and grace, a model among females. As a reward, I shall grant her a Moonlight Stone, which not only enhances aptitude, upgrades abilities, but also nourishes skin, giving renewed vitality!”

As his words fell, the crowd exclaimed.

If Beast Crystals were rare and precious, and best suited for males,

Then Moonlight Stones were best suited for females, with a level of preciousness no less than Beast Crystals.

Even rarer and more valuable.

Unexpectedly, the leader was willing to give it to Luna Sutton, clearly his own daughter.

If tonight’s best performer had been another female, the leader likely wouldn’t have given this reward.

The same applied to those few Beast Crystals.

Mia was so jealous her eyes turned red, her expression gloomy and twisted.

Her sharp nails deeply embedded into her palm, drawing blood, but without care.

Internally raging: Why does Luna Sutton get the Moonlight Stone? She’s just an ugly, fat waste, the leader truly favors her too much.

Secretly plotting how to snatch the Moonlight Stone from Luna Sutton.

Maya Miller stood in the crowd with her head down, occasionally glancing at Luna Sutton, carrying a few hidden traces of jealousy.

Her eyes dark and deep, slightly flickering, pondering something unknown.

Luna Sutton was naturally overjoyed, stepping to the stage to receive her reward.

Corbin Crowley, Rhys Blackwood, Kian Sterling, and Malachi Arcanus also gradually stepped up to receive their Beast Crystals, all in good spirits.

Even the cool-faced Rhys Blackwood managed to smile at the corner of his lips.

Like spring warmth melting ice, it was captivating.

After each received their reward and descended from the stage, glances unconsciously swept over Zeke below, like staring at a foolish millionaire who missed out.

Zeke’s face had turned so dark it could drip ink, his emerald eyes full of regret and unwillingness.

Standing at the edge of the crowd, arms crossed over his chest, lips tightly clenched, his entire body like a taut string, ready to snap at any moment.

As Malachi Arcanus descended from the stage after obtaining his reward, he paused as he passed by Zeke, glancing sideways with a sneer: “What’s wrong? Regret?”

Zeke’s face turned even more unpleasant, but he didn’t retaliate, instead turning his face aside and ignoring Malachi Arcanus.

Indeed, he regretted it, but regretting was futile; he could only strive to acquire cultivation resources from other sources.

Seeing this, Malachi Arcanus didn’t say much more, his lips curving into a mocking smile as he turned to leave.

At this time, the bonfire party had already reached its most festive section—male and female dancing together.

Beastmen were gender-neutral, crowding together, cheering, swaying to the beat, raising arms, twisting waists, and hips, uttering excited ’oo oo oo’ sounds, setting a lively and chaotic scene.

Luna Sutton stood at the edge of the crowd, watching the “primitive rave,” her lips twitching slightly.

This wasn’t dancing, it was obviously a large-scale scene of chaotic frolicking!

Even more shocking, she saw Beastmen and females openly displaying intimacy under everyone’s watchful eyes.

Completely undeterred by the public gaze.

Luna Sutton: “…”

Her lips twitched wildly, knowing Beastmen were passionate, but wasn’t this way too extreme?

She scanned the crowd; such displays were far from rare.

If she ventured inside now, the scene was beyond imagination.

Prepared to stealthily slip away, forgetting her unfinished task to dance a song with Rhys Blackwood.

Suddenly, a chilly figure blocked her path.

“Where are you going?”

Rhys Blackwood raised an eyebrow at her, his voice rarely tinged with teasing.

Luna Sutton chuckled awkwardly: “I… I wasn’t going anywhere, just wanted to get some air.”

“Get some air?”

Rhys Blackwood’s stern face flashed with amusement, “Weren’t you going to dance with me?”

Saying this, he extended a hand, making an inviting gesture.
