A short distance away, the other youngsters of the Third Squad gathered together to start a fire using wood.
"If it weren't for Wyatt Barnes, I suppose we'd only be eating raw meat now."
"Unfortunately, his chances this time seem grim. The Flame Tiger is a Fourth-Order Fierce Beast in the Condensed Pill Realm. Its strength isn't any less formidable than Wyatt's."
...
Some of the youths didn't believe that Wyatt Barnes could come back.
They all thought that Wyatt Barnes must have been killed by the Flame Tiger.
"You guys are using the fire-starting method taught to you by Wyatt Barnes and yet still condemn him behind his back. Are you not afraid of being struck by lightning?"
Westyn Morgan's face darkened when he heard the boys gossiping and he scolded them.
"We are merely stating the facts. Why are you so agitated? If you're so passionate, why did you abandon Wyatt this afternoon and run back on your own? Coward!"
One of the boys retorted with a sneer.
"What did you say?!"
