Xiao Yi left Northern Mountain County with one and a half months to spare before the Pharmaceutic Competition.
He counted the days.
Roughly, there was about one month left.
Anyway, there was plenty of time.
Xiao Yi simply stayed in Anyun County for a few days.
Hoping to uncover the cause of the recent Beast Tide.
For Anyun County, such a large-scale Beast Tide was certainly not common.
But the result was rather disappointing to Xiao Yi.
After several days,
he had practically scoured every forest inhabited by demon beasts in Anyun County.
Yet he found nothing at all.
His instinct told him this was no simple matter.
But he couldn't find any clues.
Out of options,
Xiao Yi could only leave Anyun County and continue towards the Royal Capital.
A week later, Xiao Yi traversed ten counties.
Along the way, as he had expected,
every one or two counties experienced a Beast Tide.
And their scale was immense.
In his own encounters, there were no fewer than five.
