Chapter 298 Wild Boar Attack
"Help, what help? You were clearly just..."
Bullying, the three words Shen Mengyi didn't say. Her relationship with Lin Tian was actually quite complicated, and even if Lin Tian took some advantage of her, Shen Mengyi wouldn't really be angry.
What she couldn't figure out was how Lin Tian could lick her foot in front of the other students. Wasn't that too perverted?
"Sis, you don't remember? Just now you were catching fish in the river, and not only did you not catch any, but you were also bitten by a snake. If it weren't for Lin Tian sucking out the poison for you, you'd probably be dead by now."
Shen Yiran stood up to speak for Lin Tian.
"Exactly, I was kind enough to save you, and you mistook me for a bully. Shen Mengyi, so this is what I, Lin Tian, am in your heart?"
"Ah, I'm sorry, I was just completely blanked out and didn't know anything. I, I was really bitten by a snake?"
Shen Mengyi immediately patted her forehead, vaguely remembering that she had been bitten by a snake, and then her mind went blank.
"Look at the wound on your ankle for yourself!"
Lin Tian pointed out the wound on Shen Mengyi's foot irritably, and she immediately knew she had misjudged him.
"I'm sorry for misunderstanding you. It looks like we've caught enough fish, and since there are snakes in the river, let's head back now."
With so many fish, they should be able to score quite a few points in the ingredient gathering segment.
The key point was that Shen Mengyi's foot had been bitten by a snake, which would make it difficult to move further in.
Shen Mengyi herself was very influential, and several girls agreed, so Lin Tian certainly didn't insist.
A few people put on their shoes then turned around and headed back.
"Be careful!"
Lin Tian suddenly shouted, then quickly embraced a girl and rushed to the side.
Out of the bushes, a wild boar the size of a calf emerged, its long tusks like curved knives glinting coldly.
Had Lin Tian been any slower, the girl in his arms would probably have met her demise.

"Aren't you going to let go of me?"
Shen Yiran's face turned red with embarrassment. Even though she was usually forthright and openly flirted with Lin Tian, claiming boldly that she and her sister both wanted to be Lin Tian's women, in reality, she had never been in a relationship before—a typical virgin.
Now being held like this by Lin Tian, a surge of masculine vigor rushed into her small nose.
It made Shen Yiran's body heat up slightly, giving her an unusual feeling.
However, since all the classmates were nearby, Shen Yiran pushed Lin Tian a little, asking him to let go.
"Stop messing around; it's very dangerous. This boar is so big, how did it get that way?"
When Lin Tian said this, Shen Yiran noticed a calf-sized wild boar was shaking its head to complete a turn in front of a tree.
The boar that had been preparing to charge at Shen Yiran had been saved by Lin Tian, and the swift boar hit a tree directly.
The boar seemed unharmed, its tusks still frightening. Meanwhile, a large patch of tree bark was crushed on impact.
"Such a big wild boar, everyone be careful. Lin Tian, what should we do now?"
Shen Mengyi was somewhat panicked. She had just been bitten by a snake, and now a boar had appeared; there were indeed many dangers in this forest.
But, she was relatively calm, loudly reassuring her classmates to keep them from panicking. Finally, she asked Lin Tian what to do.
"Everyone form a circle and shout loudly. Don't look at the boar's size; it's actually quite timid. Seeing so many of us, it will feel threatened. If we scatter, they will pick us off one by one. So everyone must stick together and definitely not act alone. As for this boar, leave it to me."
Lin Tian's eyes fixed on the boar, full of fighting spirit.
Shen Mengyi quickly gathered the students together, and the foodie Guo Rong volunteered to stand at the front.
"I'm bigger with more fat, so even if the boar hits me, I probably won't be hurt."
The willingness to step up at a critical moment left an impression in the girls' hearts.
"Good on you, Guo Rong. We're all counting on you."
Bu Mengting didn't go to Lin Tian; she knew that at this time she would be a burden. Standing with everyone, not distracting Lin Tian, was the best help she could offer him.
"Don't worry, I'm an MT!"
"Hahaha..."
The group laughed, and the wild boar in front of them didn't seem so scary anymore.
"Huff!"
The wild boar suddenly let out a loud snort, then began pawing the ground with its hind legs—a clear prelude to a charge.
"Come on!"
Lin Tian was not to be outdone, spreading his legs apart, pointing at the boar, and gesturing to it with a coaxing finger.
Whether the boar understood Lin Tian's challenge or its patience had run out was unclear.
The boar charged, its limbs flying, its round body rumbling towards them like a small tank.
As it picked up speed, several of the girls turned pale.
"Don't be afraid, I'm here, the boar won't hurt you!"
Lin Tian let out a shout, extended his arms, and charged toward the wild boar.
The strongest attack of this wild boar was probably this charge. If he could withstand the boar's charge, then the boar would be easy to handle.
As all the girls were behind him, Lin Tian could not retreat; he decided to face the wild boar head-on and repel it.
Standing still, his focus intensified.
The running speed of the wild boar suddenly slowed down. From its previous extreme speed, Lin Tian could now catch the boar's silhouette.
Very soon, Lin Tian noticed in his field of vision that the boar's image grew increasingly ferocious, yet its movements seemed like a video playing over a poor internet connection.
A single motion could be broken down into several segments.
In the eyes of onlookers, Lin Tian stood motionless, as if frozen in fear by the wild boar.
In reality, Lin Tian was silently gathering strength. When the boar entered his range of attack, Lin Tian suddenly erupted, stepping forward with a lunge, and struck out fiercely with both hands.
Man and boar collided, Lin Tian's hands precisely grasping the most lethal weapons of the boar, its two tusks.
"Lin Tian, go for it, Lin Tian, you're the best!"
Bu Mengting, upon seeing Lin Tian grab the boar's tusks in one go, felt thrilled by his robust silhouette and immediately cheered him on.
The other girls did not expect that such a large wild boar could be stopped by Lin Tian with his bare hands.
At that moment, Lin Tian was wrestling with the boar.
It must be said, the boar's strength was indeed massive, probably ten times stronger than a calf of the same size.
But the boar had chosen the wrong opponent, for Lin Tian had cultivated the Ox Power Technique and was a true strongman.
The boar, with its tusks grasped by Lin Tian, realized no matter how desperately it struggled, it could not escape from this man's hands.
The boar's hind hooves kept digging at the ground, but no matter how much it struggled, its tusks could not break free from Lin Tian's grip; in fact, it found it difficult to even budge.
Before long, it seemed the boar had exhausted its strength. Lin Tian exerted force with his hands and directly flipped the boar over.
Then he mounted the boar's belly, one hand holding the tusk, the other smacking the boar's head with a fierce punch. The boar's head tilted, and it was a goner.
"Lin Tian! Lin Tian! Lin Tian..."
Each member of the Dream Girls Team couldn't help but cheer for Lin Tian.
Lin Tian, meanwhile, got off the boar's body and started to smile at the boar.
So this wild boar was the good thing Lin Tian had divined; with this boar, the first place for the Dream Girls Team in tonight's ingredient gathering was secure.
"What are you grinning at?"
Bu Mengting rushed over, throwing herself into Lin Tian's arms, expecting to have a wonderful *** as in the ending of an American blockbuster.
Who knew Lin Tian was actually smiling foolishly at a wild boar, leaving Bu Mengting not knowing what to say.
"I'm smiling at this wild boar. Look at its size, our team is definitely going to be first tonight in gathering ingredients."
"Yeah, you're right, Lin Tian. With such a big wild boar, our team is definitely going to be first." Shen Yiran ran over, taking pictures of the boar with her phone non-stop.
The other girls finally reacted and started posing and taking pictures around the boar.
"Make sure not to upload the photos yet, this is our trump card. Let's first bring back the fish, and when they've all presented their ingredients, we'll drag out the wild boar. It'll definitely blow their minds."
The astute Shen Mengyi immediately conjured up a dramatic face-slapping scene, surely it would be great for the show.
"Got it, Club President." Several girls, naturally looking up to Shen Mengyi's lead, stored the photos in their albums, planning to upload them to their spaces right after the scoring was over.
"But President, such a big wild boar, how do we bring it back?"
Bai Ruolan was quieter by nature, yet her thinking was agile, always considering what others overlooked.
"Yeah, exactly, how do we bring back such a big wild boar?"
Guo Rong immediately echoed her, the two had interacted well while catching fish. It seemed that this time Guo Rong had found his target.
"Leave the boar to me, I'll carry it back."
Lin Tian went beside the boar, grabbed it with both hands, and hoisted it onto his shoulder.
Then, carrying the boar on his shoulders, he took the lead and began heading back.
Shen Mengyi originally wanted Lin Tian to carry her back because she had been bitten by a snake. Now, for the sake of the wild boar, she still gritted her teeth and insisted on walking with the team.
Fortunately, the snake venom had already been sucked out by Lin Tian; it was just two extra holes, after all.
As night fell, the people from the five teams gradually returned to camp.
As per the original agreement, they had to be back at camp before dark.
"The Mushroom Team sure lives up to its name, finding so many mushrooms?"
"The Fish-Touching Team isn't doing too badly either, catching so many fish!"
"The Assault Team actually caught three wild rabbits and five wild chickens. My goodness, they must have won the ingredient gathering challenge!"
The Broadcasting Club's three teams performed unexpectedly well. Lin Tao and Feng Jiabao's Forest Treasure Hunting Team felt rather awkward with just a few fish and a dozen mushrooms.
