Su Hao once again quickly approached the snow leopard. The snow leopard arched its body and roared at Su Hao. Once again, it launched its deadly charge. This time, if it couldn’t finish its opponent, the snow leopard planned to leave.
Approaching quickly, the snow leopard’s paws stretched forward, wanting to knock the opposition down, then it would bite the throat. It hadn’t thought this small thing would turn his body sideways and disappear from its vision.
“Horizontal slash!”
“Shua!”
A blade light flashed from the snow leopard’s neck to its back, drawing a thin bloodstain.
The snow was splashed with red. The snow leopard crashed to the ground. It mournfully tried to lick its neck wound, but it couldn’t reach.
After a moment, it reluctantly closed its eyes and let out its last breath.
At this time, Wu Yuntian walked to Su Hao’s side. Looking at the scarred snow leopard, he praised: “Beautifully done Xiangwu!”
Su Hao proudly waved the knife in his hands: “Hehe, just luck.”
Wu Yuntian’s face was filled with regret though: “It’s a pity the fur probably won’t be able to sell for much of a price.”
Seeing Su Hao’s indifferent appearance, he added: “Originally, I wanted to trade this fur for money and scrounge a little to buy you a new blade. Looks like we can’t do that anymore.”
Su Hao responded: “Father, where’s the next prey. I feel like my fighting skills still have room for improvement!”
Wu Yuntian revealed a smile: “Okay, we’ll go to a different spot tomorrow.”
……
The next day, he faced off against a huge pheasant.
Su Hao didn’t take it too seriously. He had taken down a leopard. What did a bird count for? The result was that the pheasant completely abused Su Hao until Wu Yuntian saved him. So he began to cross this pheasant.
This pheasant’s claws and beaks were sharp, and it could fly into the air for short periods of time. The most important thing was that this pheasant had very quick reactions. Su Hao’s short range maneuvering was ineffective.
He was tormented by this pheasant for six days. In the end, he used a trap out of rope to take care of his opponent.
Then the next day he was restricted by Wu Yuntian to fighting tools and could not use tricks. He could only use his knife and armor, nothing else. At Su Hao’s desperate request, Wu Yuntian upgraded his armor so that it could better protect his vitals.
……
Next he came across a little black-haired wild boar. During its ruthless charge, Su Hao understood what a bulldozer was and how to fully exert the whole body’s strength to create a powerful charging attack. In the end, he won a pyrrhic victory over the wild boar after ten days. It took half a month to recover.
……
He encountered a violent bear with thick skin that a knife couldn’t pierce and he couldn’t hurt it with kicks. When facing this kind of tank with high attack and defense, Su Hao learned the skill of attacking the same spot, and in the end was able to slowly grind the bear down to death. It took two months.
……
The cunning jackal, the agile ocelot, the lightweight raptor, the swift serpent…
Wu Yuntian brought Su Hao to wander through the mountains and swept through all the beasts suitable for Su Hao, and they went deeper and deeper.
With the support and guidance of Wu Yuntian, Su Hao broke through trial after trial. Each time he used a different amount of time. He gained a wealth of experience fighting beasts. He gained an all new understanding of the power of a high-level common warrior.
Time flowed onwards. His height grew, his arms and legs grew thicker, the muscles on his body became distinct, the armor and knife were also constantly replaced.
……
Three years later, Su Hao was 8 years old.
His height reached 1.5 meters. His body had become tall and sturdy and the iron armor covering him shone and looked majestic. His face had matured, though his sheeks still had a trace of childishness. His eyes were spirited and his hair was short. It could be seen that in a few years he would definitely become a handsome young lad.
“Father’s, today’s target is an approximately five meter blue and white striped tiger right?” Su Hao’s voice was more mature and contained the vigor of youth.
Wu Yuntian compared to before had more creases near his eyes: “Indeed it’s a blue-striped tiger. How did you know?”
“I saw it way earlier.” Su Hao chuckled.
In the past few years, he had experienced many different animals and had filled the database with their information. He only needed a single look and Little Light could distinguish various large and small animals, regardless of how well they hid.
Little Light’s automatic search function was no longer the random command from three years ago. He had specifically rewritten the search parameters and established a database, which could be added to at any time. Right now, it was like Su Hao’s special reconnaissance skill.
Things that were recorded could be instantly recognized. Things that hadn’t been seen before, as long as they were named and recorded, could be identified next time. After three years of recording, he had basically recorded all of the animals in the wild surrounding Cha Mountain Outpost.
This blue-striped tiger had been encountered by Su Hao two years ago. But at that time, Wu Yuntian hadn’t let Su Hao take it on.
“Since that’s the target, then I don’t have any questions. Father, you just wait here for a bit.” Saying that, Su Hao gently jumped off the rock and headed straight for the blue-striped tiger.
Wu Yuntian, who had been left behind, looked around feeling depressed: “Does this kid have the eyes of an eagle? How come I don’t see where the blue-striped tiger is.”
These three years, he had personally watched as Su Hao grew at an unbelievable speed that he had become numb to it. He believed from today on, even if some other strange things happened, he wouldn’t be stunned.
If it was said that three years ago Su Hao was a high-level common warrior, then the current Su Hao was a high-level common warrior that far surpassed other high-level common warriors. So Wu Yuntian wasn’t worried at all for Su Hao to take on the blue-striped tiger by himself, instead he was worried that he would wreck the blue-striped tiger’s fur.
That’s right. Su Hao still belonged to the high-level common warrior stage because he still hadn’t been allowed to move his blood qi and undergo the changes, but his combat strength had already far exceeded the scope of high-level common warriors. His combat strength even surpassed those of mid-level elite warriors.
This defied all of Wu Yuntian’s common sense. The strangest thing to him that he couldn’t understand was how vigorous Su Hao’s blood qi was. He had never seen anyone else like that. To him, this was an impossibility.
It seemed like if there was even a strand more of blood qi in his body, it would surpass his body’s limits. And he could emulate that state whenever and wherever.
“What exactly is the ‘Blood Qi Enhancement Wave’ that Xiangwu spoke about?” Wu Yuntian had also been studying these past three years, but he still couldn’t reach the starting point and could only sigh it wasn’t in his destiny.
Watching Su Hao’s back in the distance, pride swelled up in him: “As expected of my son.”
Su Hao’s footsteps lithely passed through the mountain woods, getting faster and faster, while still agilely avoiding all kinds of obstacles in the woods. Once his approach was fifty meters away from the blue-striped tiger, the blue-striped tiger’s ears moved a bit and discovered that Su Hao was moving to raid it.
“Roar!”
The sound of a king’s roar echoed through the woods.
“Awoo—” Su Hao also howled towards the sky, responding to the blue-striped tiger’s roar.
The king of the mountain’s woods, the blue-striped tiger, received the provocation, and it majestically ran towards Su Hao, his speed like the wind, his movements like thunder.
The two figures crossed in an instant.
“Bang!”
The blue-striped tiger’s large frame inertia carried it through a few branches that were as thick as arms before it finally stopped and collapsed. At this time, beneath the tiger’s large head, blood trickled out and flowed into a pool.
In that confrontation just now as they crossed, Su Hao used the knife in his hand and inserted the knife from below the jaw into the brain, instantly killing the blue-striped tiger.
“It’s done!” Su Hao sheathed the knife and dusted off his hands, grabbed the blue-striped tiger’s tail, and dragged it away.
