The Group of 6 then moved out for hunt. At first the coordination was a bit clumsy but slowly they started to match each other's pace.
They also were now able to hide their presence properly and without stepping on the wrong branch and alerting the Horned sheep.
Everyone was happy seeing that their team work was getting in a sync. Ziyun and Ninger were like perfect duo matching all their actions and their coordination even surpassed Red.
Du's team was a bit lagging but they were now had proper tactic understanding with each other and were properly performing their task.
They even were getting good with taking out the spoils of hunt and were getting more skilled with the short knife.
Red had later decided that the meat of the beast could be useful, so later he decided to also store the meat also.
They were now working strategically that Ziyun and Ming would aim at the Stationary position of the sheep while others would aim for position as if the sheep was placed on a rectangular table.
Red would be the one to aim at the top corner from their side , while Ninger will ai, for the bottom corner. Same with Du Ze aiming at the top corner oppisite to Red and Jun at the bottom opposite with Ninger.
This Strategy really worked well and almost 80% of their hits were successful unless in he case where the horned sheep used its horns to deflect the arrows.
But with increasing teamwork they were able to fill that gap quickly.They were also now able to keep track of each others position properly.
"Well lets stop for now. with this its out 1000th Horned sheep and i think now we can take it slow."
After their 100th kill, Red decided to stop as it was already dark. They also had their space ring full of parts of Horned Sheep.
"Lets now go and exchange the stuff for money then we will head towards my home."
Red gave orders where all of them accepted as they were now tired of continuous concentration on the task, they all felt tired.
They all then visited the exchange office and received their share in exchange of the parts. Red also decided to keep 5 of the top Demon Spirit Crystals with him for later use.
"Ok now lets head home". red cheered and all followed behind him dragging their bit tired bodies.
Red was up ahead with Du Ze taking the lead with Ziyun and Ninger discussing between themselves and the two boys lazily following at the end.
They walked through the streets and reached the house where Red stayed. Du Ze and other commoners were shocked that Red owned a house so close to the city lord's mansion and also a small yard along.
Moving in they saw several herbs properly planted in an order and also spread the fragnance in the air.
Both girls were quite attracted to the flowers as they were quite beautifully placed such that each of them complemented the other even during the period of night, they wondered how beautiful would it look in the morning. Excited Ziyun and Ninger began asking Red about the flowers , who explained them all with pleasure.
They then moved inside gathered around the stove area where Red lighted the bonfire.
"Ok guys then now lets get fresh, the Bedroom at the right is mine where the boys will freshen up."
"The bedroom on the left end is not used by anyone so the girls can take their baths there.I ll stay here so lets one by one get fresh and come back here again."
Then all the boys moved one by one and freshened up and took a bath quickly, while the girls took their time, by the end of the hour they were all back sitting around the bonfire.
"Ninger Ziyun back to taking notes". They both nodded and hearing took the books they made specially for this and got ready to write what Red said.
"Now today was a great day, we all got an acquaintance with each other and also had our first task done with flying colors. For what i can see we all look quite physically fit but still tomorrow we all will visit the alchemy association to take a full body test."
"Red is it really necessary for that ? i think we dont need to waste our money there." Du Ze and others were confused as to why this was needed.
"I know that all you think its nothing serious, but let me tell you we should all have a strong base and our bodies are the main pillar on which were are gonna progress , so if something goes wrong with it, out cultivation will be affected and as for the cost, i have asked sister Yang Xin to help us so its not official test as i will be testing with the boys along with an assistant of Sister Xin and sister Xin will be responsible for the girls." everyone nodded their heads while acknowledging the fact.
"Red by Sister Yang Xin do you mean the president of the Alchemy Association?" Ninger asked in a shock which was later passed on to all except ziyun who knew about it earlier.
"Yes sister Xin is like my family so she accepted readily, also this will be pure physical test and as per your body, i and sister Xin will produce a die plan for all of you to follow from now on. Also every month we are gonna take such tests".
Hearing what Red was doing for them all three of the boys became a bit emotional, as it was something they could have never been able to enjoy even if they worked hard or sold their bodies. They looked at each others eyes and a resolution was seen in their eyes as they swore to help and stay for Red with all they have.
"Also from tomorrow i plan on adding 2 more members to the group for taking the test, who will later be joining in our team. They are Chen Linjian and sister Huyan Lanrou. They are our senior in the Institution but they will be joining in our team. I have informed them both as they will arrive directly at the association after our class ends." Ziyun knew both brother Chen and Hanrou as they had met in the city hall while others were excited to meet their seniors and team members to take their advice in cultivation.
"Now if you want to you can return home or can occupy the rooms, both ziyun and Ninger can sleep in the left bedroom while we boy can sleep out here together." Red advised them.
"Red ill sleep with Ning'er in the bedroom, good night", saying both Ninger and Ziyun headed towards their room after greeting goodnight to everyone. They wanted to talk and catch up with their past now.
"ok then boys give me a hand so we can bring the bedding from my bedroom out here."Red then headed towards his room along with the boys ad then later set their bed around the bonfire and stared to chat and share their thoughts and life until now later drifting to their sleep.
