Su Hao stomped the ground and his body dodged to the side. The snow leopard reacted quickly and changed directions and continued to rush towards Su Hao.
The snow leopard’s cold pupils were right in front of his eyes. Su Hao’s legs exploded with blood qi and once again dodged.
At this time, the snow leopard didn’t have the chance to change direction again and could only reach out a front paw and swipe at him. Its five claws were out and flashed coldy.
Su Hao hurriedly put his knife out to block and used the other hand to hold the knife as support.
However, he didn’t get a chance to full get his feet on the ground and stabilize his center of gravity.
“Pow!”
The leopard’s palm struck the knife and a strong force sent Su Hao flying far away.
In the competition of heaviness, Su Hao was completely defeated. An approximately 20 kg child facing off with a 200 kg snow leopard was simply a joke. If it wasn’t for the knife in his hands, Su Hao would not even be qualified to stand in front of the snow leopard.
Su Hao rolled a few times on the ground before he could jump up and stand properly. The snow leopard’s attack was already in front of him.
“Horizontal slash!”
Su Hao adjusted his center of gravity, held the knife with both hands, calculated the speed, and rather than retreat, he aimed at the snow leopard’s stomach and slashed with his knife.
This combat skill was taught to him by Wu Yuntian three days ago. It was Wu Yun Tian’s special attack.
Blood qi exploded out through the feet, then the thighs, torso, bringing movement to the arms. A string of blood explosion’s strength permeated through the whole body and became focused towards the knife in his hands. Anything that dared to block the blade would be completely chopped in half.
Su Hao had to practice this move many times before he could get the hang of it.
“Shua!”
A cold light swept past, a few tufts of white hair floated in the air.
At the critical moment, the snow leopard had sense the danger and avoided it.
Which mean that Su Hao’s killer attack hit nothing but air.
After using a combat skill, there was a period of emptiness and it would be difficult for him to bring out any more blood qi.
Su Hao’s eyes followed Little Light’s mark and locked onto the snow leopard’s figure.
After the snow leopard dodged Su Hao’s attack, its four paws were on the snowy ground, its body tightly wound up and sprang again, once again rushing towards Su Hao.
This time, it was the snow leopard’s real attack. It was the first time it opened its mouth and revealed its sharp teeth.
“I can’t avoid it!” Su Hao recognized that he already could no longer dodge this attack.
Turning the knifepoint towards the snow leopard’s wide open mouth. He wanted to take the risk and stab the knife into the leopard’s mouth and through it pierce the brain, killing it in one strike.
At this critical moment, Su Hao’s back collar was suddenly grabbed by a large hand and dragged back to the side. By the time he reacted, he discovered that he was already out in an open space to the side and the snow leopard was over ten meters away.
“We’ll end it here today. We’ll come again tomorrow. Let’s go!”
Only after Wu Yuntian’s voice sounded did Su Hao recover and he could only dumbly say: “Okay father.”
Looking at the snow leopard again, it was vigilantly watching the Wu Yuntian who had suddenly appeared, its body lowered, ready to attack at any time. However, it could be seen that it had the meaning to retreat.
Only now was Su Hao able to take deep breaths of the fresh air. His chest felt like it was going to burst. His heart wanted to jump out of his chest. His hands and feet had started to go numb.
Too exciting!
He followed behind Wu Yuntian for a while in this state before Su Hao slowly came to his senses.
“What? Coming again tomorrow?”
……
The next day, Su Hao followed Wu Yuntian and came to the snow leopard’s territory again.
Once Little Light found the snow leopard, they once again stood against the snow leopard.
After reviewing his battle with the snow leopard, Su Hao recognized his mistakes.
That was he had used speed and strength to fight, but when the opponent’s speed and strength were both higher than his own, he had no advantage.
So he understood Wu Yuntian’s meaning for going through this snow leopard fight. It was to hone his close quarter combat skills. This way he could bring out his body’s full strength and speed and could raise his overall power.
This made Su Hao sigh. This world’s teaching methods were simple and crude.
Learning from the previous experience, Su Hao had already made mental preparations. He was confident that if he could last long enough, he would have an opportunity to kill the opponent.
Before the snow leopard could make its first move, Su Hao charged towards it.
This time Su Hao charged without using his full power and had reserved enough strength to react to any changes.
His thinking was very simple. If his speed and strength were worse than the opponent, then he would definitely lose a straight up fight.
Then to avoid that direct conflict, he would get close to its body to block it off and take it by surprise for a chance of victory.
The snow leopard lowered its body and when Su Hao was within three meters distance, it sprung out and attacked with full strength. It meant to biet this tiny, not too meaty child to death.
This was the absolute confidence the snow leopard had built up over the many years. There was no prey that could escape its jaws from such a close distance.
Su Hao had been waiting for this moment. He didn’t jump to the left or to the right as he had yesterday because he knew that even if he jumped, the snow leopard would quickly turn and swipe at him. Instead, he was currently in a passive state.
As the snow leopard dashed at him, he stopped his momentum and kicked back with both feet and went backwards, just barely dodging the snow leopard’s bite.
As the snow leopard took a bite of nothing but air, and its paws hadn’t yet reached the ground, Su Hao grabbed the opportunity to take a step forward, and fiercely kicked the snow leopard in the lower jaw.
“Bang!” A sound rang out. The snow leopard’s entire head shook, as if it had been hit by a sledgehammer. Its top and bottom teeth collided with a sound. This kick was Su Hao’s revenge for the swipe from yesterday.
However, the size difference between the snow leopard and Su Hao was too much. He hadn’t sent the snow leopard’s head up very far, instead, his foot hurt.
The kick to the lower jaw frightened the snow leopard so much that it bounced high up and retreated four or five steps before stopping. Its eyes glared at Su Hao vigilantly.
“Grr~”
A low growl came from its throat. Su Hao’s kick didn’t harm it much, but it was extremely insulted.
Su Hao didn’t plan on letting it go and rushed at it again.
He brought out his knife and once again moved within short range of the snow leopard to dodge its attack. When the snow leopard’s attack missed, in the gap before it could get more energy, he jumped and gave it a stab, then jumped to run away, not caring about the results.
He would not use his full force at any time to ensure that he would have enough strength to dodge any incoming attacks.
The snow leopard’s body was enormous. While it gained great strength and sprint speed, it was more difficult for it to maneuver on a smaller scale. Each time it attacked, it would require a small gap to recover its strength before it could launch the next attack.
Therefore, the snow leopard would go for the one-hit kill because if the attack missed, the hunt would end in failure.
Su Hao seized those tiny opportunities and continually created new wounds on the snow leopard.
Soon, the snow leopard was dyed with the color red which contrasted greatly with its snow white fur. The stains became frozen by the icy wind and became crystalline. In the sunlight, it shined with a strange luster.
Going back and forth like this, Su Hao became more familiar with the rhythm of the fight, and the snow leopard’s paws chances to touch Su Hao became less and less.
No matter how the snow leopard roared, it didn’t have a way to handle Su Hao. More and more blood flowed and its body began to weaken.
Su Hao could see that the snow leopard was considering retreat. If he let the snow leopard run, he didn’t have the confidence to chase after it.
“In that case, we’ll end it with this knife.”
