Beastmaster: I don’t want to be a breeder!

The once lush island was now draped in a white gown of snow. The endless expanse of white stretched to the horizon, as if overnight, nature's palette had been washed clean by a mysterious force, leaving only the pure white snow.

Delicate snowflakes danced in the wind, landing lightly on the branches and bending the treetops. The sea was sealed by a layer of ice, and the once turbulent waves were now silent, as if time had frozen in place.

Not only had Li Cunxu's Running Horse Island turned into an ice island, but the islands of all the other contestants had as well.

The culprit behind the overnight transformation of the islands into ice islands was the Storm Gull.

The Storm Gull's storms could bring a cold wave that turned the world into a world of ice and snow.

Of course, the credit for such a large area of ice and snow didn't belong entirely to the Storm Gull; it was merely borrowing the power of nature.

To put it simply, the Storm Gull had pulled the snow and ice that should have fallen elsewhere to this area.

"It's snow! We can have a snowball fight."

Li Cunxu hadn't seen much snow, especially not this much.

His hometown, Tongdu, was a city that rarely saw snow. Even when it did snow, the snowflakes were so small that they melted upon touching the ground.

Li Cunxu summoned all his pets to have a snowball fight.

The little pony hadn't seen snow before and was very curious about it. It tentatively touched the snow, finding it cool and comfortable. Then, the little pony frolicked, rolling around in the snow.

Li Cunxu threw a snowball at each of them. With the Blood Lotus Eye's enhancement, his accuracy was 100% within ten meters.

As a result, each pet got hit in the face with a snowball.

"Come on, let's have a snowball fight. Don't just stand there."

The little white spider was the first to retaliate, followed by Little Soft, who also started throwing snowballs.

The Shadow Raven and Blood Lotus Carp were at a disadvantage since they didn't have hands.

The Shadow Raven tried to make snowballs with its claws, but its claws weren't as nimble as hands, making the process too slow. Before it could even finish shaping a snowball, it was hit by a snowball from the little white spider.

The Blood Lotus Carp didn't even have claws and could only passively take the hits. Soon, it became the first one buried in snow.

The little pony also didn't have hands and couldn't make snowballs, but it liked to run, dodging snowballs as it ran back and forth.

It ended up getting hit more often than if it had stood still, but the little pony was enjoying itself.

It loved to run too much.

This love developed after the [Milestone] growth talent appeared.

Being able to grow stronger by running made it impossible not to love it.

Moreover, running was addictive. If you suddenly told someone who loved running every day not to run, they would find it difficult to adapt.

The second one buried in snow was the Machina Apprentice.

The Machina Apprentice in the snow pile wished it had a gun that could mass-produce snowballs and quickly fire them.

… …

After playing around, Li Cunxu lit a whale oil lamp for warmth.

The whale oil from the Evil Shark Whale was very durable. It had been burning for a long time, but the oil level barely decreased.

Lunch was grilled swordfish.

The swordfish's nasal bone was a bone sword with a sharp tip. The sides weren't sharp, so as long as you didn't use too much force while holding the sides of the blade, you wouldn't get cut.

Li Cunxu liked the swordfish's bone sword very much. It was perfect for making barbecue skewers.

Swordfish meat was a Bronze-grade resource that could improve control over water-based spirit energy.

The weather was freezing, and the insulation of their accommodations was useless.

The contestants could only chop wood to make a fire, but there was a problem with making a fire: the fire would produce smoke, and the smoke would attract other pets on the island.

Some were sensitive to the smell of smoke, while others were worried about the island catching fire.

A fire would burn the food and resources on the island, so pets living in the area would act as firefighters to prevent the fire from spreading.

Making a fire would attract pets, but not making a fire would mean freezing.

The contestants were in a dilemma.

Those who had contracted fire-type pets were better off.

Fire-type pets were like mobile heaters; you could warm up by getting close to them.

However, owning fire-type pets also had its problems. Fire-type pets consumed more energy in the cold, snowy weather, so they would eat twice as much food as usual, easily leading to a food crisis.

Compared to them, Li Cunxu was much more comfortable.

For warmth, he had the Evil Shark Whale's whale oil, which was durable and produced no smoke or odor.

For food, too much seafood had fallen down during the typhoon, enough to eat for more than twenty days.

The fifty-sixth day on the island.

An angry dragon's roar woke Li Cunxu.

The Azure Lightning Dragon was back.

It sensed that its beloved consort, the Thunder Steed, had been killed. After healing its poison, it rushed back.

The dragon's roar was both to vent its anger and to summon its mixed-blood offspring, the Thunder Horses.

However, no Thunder Horses appeared after a long time.

Clearly, there was only one possibility: all the Thunder Horses were dead.

The Azure Lightning Dragon was even more furious.

The sky darkened, and the snow-bearing clouds turned into thunder-bearing clouds.

Lightning struck down like long serpents.

The Azure Lightning Dragon first attacked the Grass Healing Thousand Cavalry Horses that had been marked.

The grass healing connection of the six thousand Grass Healing Horses was activated, but it was useless against the Azure Lightning Dragon.

The Azure Lightning Dragon swooped down and grabbed a Grass Healing Thousand Cavalry Horse from the herd.

Taking the enemy's head from the midst of a large army.

The Azure Lightning Dragon grabbed the Grass Healing Thousand Cavalry Horse and flew to a height of hundreds of thousands of meters. The grass healing connection had broken when it was only a hundred meters away. The Azure Lightning Dragon threw the Grass Healing Thousand Cavalry Horse into the violent black thunderclouds flashing with lightning.

When the Grass Healing Thousand Cavalry Horse fell out of the thunderclouds, only a skeleton remained.

The next one to be marked.

The Solar Radiance Horse.

The Solar Radiance Horse was not afraid of the Azure Lightning Dragon's attack and waited alone for the Azure Lightning Dragon.

Fearing that the battle would affect the Radiance Horses and the Azure Lightning Dragon's revenge, it had dispersed the Radiance Horses into the mountains early on.

As the Azure Lightning Dragon swooped down surrounded by blue lightning, the Solar Radiance Horse did not hesitate to use the self-destruction skill [Radiance Severance], willing to perish together.

The Solar Radiance Horse erupted with unparalleled heat, turning into a beam of extreme solar radiance that went straight for the Azure Lightning Dragon.

Dodge?

The Azure Lightning Dragon hadn't thought about it.

How could it dodge when the speed of light was so fast?

Moreover, the Azure Lightning Dragon hadn't expected the Solar Radiance Horse to use this move right away, catching it off guard.

Who would self-destruct right from the start?

The Azure Lightning Dragon felt a fatal threat, a hint of fear appearing in its eyes. It subconsciously curled up its dragon body, using its dragon wings to protect itself.

The beam pierced the Azure Lightning Dragon's heart once again.

Why say again?

The Horse King of the previous generation of Radiance Horses had also used Radiance Severance, piercing its heart.

It was precisely because it had been pierced last time, and the injury hadn't healed, that it was a weak point, allowing the Golden Seven Solar Radiance Horse's Radiance Severance to succeed again.

With its heart pierced, the Azure Lightning Dragon wasn't afraid but instead revealed a mocking smile.

Two foolish horses, neither of them knew that this dragon's heart was naturally different, located on the right instead of the left.
