Mu Zhi was very anxious.
He was originally searching for Ferocious Beasts in the dense forest when he accidentally stumbled into the territory of a Giant Berserker Bear.
The Giant Berserker Bear was a High-Tier Level 1 Ferocious Beast with strength comparable to a Late-Stage Martial Apprentice. He had just become a Mid-Stage Martial Apprentice, and he had the strength of less than four thousand kilograms. How could he be a match for this Ferocious Beast?
He immediately planned to escape.
However, who knew that the Giant Berserker Bear thought that this student had entered its territory to steal its Spirit Honey, leading to them clashing.
Left with no choice, Mu Zhi could only fight back.
It was just that the Giant Berserker Bear’s strength was overwhelming. He was simply no match for it. As soon as they engaged, he fell into a disadvantageous position.
If this continued, he would be defeated in due time, and become food for the giant bear.
As for crushing the Communication Talisman to seek help.
Even if he crushed it, not mentioning whether the two teachers would be able to save him in time,his trial this time would have to be terminated.
Mu Zhi really didn’t want to miss out on such a good opportunity for outdoor training. So, he hesitated until now.
And just at this moment.
Mu Zhi suddenly saw from the corner of his eye a figure rapidly approaching. He was overjoyed. “Classmate, quickly help me kill this Giant Berserker Bear. Afterwards, we can split the Spirit Honey…”
Before he could finish his words, he got a clear look at who had arrived.
It was Chu Mo!
[What use is it for this waste to come? He is just sending himself to death!] Mu Zhi was instantly very disappointed.
Just as he was distracted by Chu Mo’s arrival, the Giant Berserker Bear found an opportunity and slapped him.
Mu Zhi couldn’t dodge in time and was directly sent flying. His chest immediately caved in as his entire body was knocked into the air, splattering a large amount of fresh blood.
When he landed on the ground, he was already motionless!
Chu Mo, who had just arrived, saw this scene and couldn’t help frowning. “Wicked beast! You still dare to act so fierce? Watch me slay you!”
As his voice fell, Chu Mo took a lunging step forward while raising his hand. His palm was instantly enveloped in a layer of purple electric light, carrying the momentum of thunder, smashing towards the bear like a mountain pressing down.
Boom!
The punch landed on the giant bear’s body. The enormous force even caused the giant bear’s body to cave in.
At the same time, the fierce power of lightning quickly spread throughout the giant bear’s body, instantly charing its fur and filling the air with the smell of burnt flesh.
With just one strike, the giant bear was injured!
But at the same time, it also caused it to go berserk.
“Roar! Roar! Roar!”
With a roar, the giant bear completely went mad. Its eyes turned blood-red as it waved its huge paws in a frenzy.
Every time a paw landed, it would cause the earth to tremble.
Faced with this situation, even Chu Mo didn’t dare to confront it head-on. He could only dodge while counterattacking.
One man and one bear engaged in an intense battle.
The Giant Berserker Bear was a High-Tier Level 1 Ferocious Beast with immense strength. In terms of raw power, Chu Mo was no match.
However, the giant bear wasn’t agile, so Chu Mo could completely avoid it.
Moreover, he possessed the power of lightning, which was ranked at the top in terms of killing power.
Therefore, the giant bear couldn’t reach him at all, while every punch he landed, with the power of lightning attached to it. The lightning penetrated into the giant bear’s body and destroyed its bodily functions.
At this moment, Chu Mo leisurely dodged while smiling nonchalantly. “You wicked beast! After getting continuously heavily injured by my power of lightning, you’re already at the end of your rope! I wonder how much longer you can hold on!”
Sure enough, a few minutes later, the Giant Berserker Bear’s aura began to continuously drop and it soon became sluggish.
Seizing the opportunity, Chu Mo’s eyes flashed. He directly lunged forward, raised his fist, and smashed it towards the giant bear’s skull.
Boom!!!
Accompanied by a shocking dull impact, the Giant Berserker Bear’s skull suffered a heavy blow. It finally couldn’t withstand it and collapsed to the ground with a loud thud.
After twitching a few times, it became motionless.
Seeing this, Chu Mo couldn’t help letting out a long sigh of relief.
“A High-Tier Level 1 Ferocious Beasts is formidable indeed!”
Although he made hunting the Giant Berserker Bear look simple and effortless, in reality, he had only taken advantage of its clumsy figure.
If he was hit by its attack, he would either die or be heavily injured on the spot, without having any ability to fight back.
“From this, it seems that speed is also crucial in battle! If only I can find a Wind Element Talent to make up for my shortcomings. If I can, my combat power would reach an even higher level!”
Chu Mo rested on the spot for a while, then planned to absorb the spoils of war.
However, just at this moment, his expression suddenly changed as he looked ahead.
In the distance, a figure was rapidly approaching.
When it arrived and saw the situation, it immediately laughed. “To think I worked so hard to search around, for you to appear when I had given up,… Chu Mo, to think you dare to see me!”
The person who arrived was none other than Zhou Qi!
This time, when he participated in the trial, in addition to wanting to win first place and obtain the academy’s rewards, he also had another important mission!
Ever since that Level 3 Earth Wyvern was slain, the base dispatched more than a dozen Hunting Teams to clear the Ferocious Beasts in this area.
His father, a Late-Stage Martial Master, was among those that helped clear the area. As a result, by chance, they discovered that in the nest of the Earth Wyvern laid a hidden treasure.
At that time, Zhou Cheng, Zhou Qi’s father, was overjoyed. He had originally planned to take it out, but unfortunately, there were too many people around and it wasn’t convenient to act.
Zhou Cheng could only record the location and return to the base first.
Later, he learned that the First Academy was going to organize a trial. Zhou Cheng told his son about this and had him retrieve it.
According to his father, that treasure was most likely the Ten Thousand Year Old Spirit Essence, and there might be other things hidden there as well. It was just that at the time, there wasn’t a chance to investigate in detail due to the situation.
But just the Ten Thousand Year Old Spirit Essence alone was enough to drive Zhou Qi crazy!
A Ten Thousand Year Old Spirit Essence was potentially the greatest heavenly treasure!
It was rumored that after cultivators used it, they could improve their Talent and Physique. If news of such a thing were to spread, even Grandmasters would fight over for it!
And if he could obtain it, with the Ten Thousand Year Old Spirit Essence, plus the academy’s rewards, he could rapidly become a Martial Artist. In the future, he might even have hopes of becoming a Grandmaster. A higher cultivation realm might even be in reach!
At that time, a mere Chen Xiwei would be easily obtainable, no?
The treasure was precious, so in order to conceal information about it, after he entered the wilderness, he dismissed his followers and went in alone. He even meandered and did not head straight towards the location of the treasure.
But unexpectedly, halfway there, he saw Chu Mo.
Zhou Qi had long harbored murderous intent towards this person. It was just that it was not convenient to act in the academy. Now that they encountered each other in the wild, Zhou Qi naturally had to take this opportunity to kill him!
Thinking this way, Zhou Qi directly said, “Chu Mo, have you thought about how you want to die!?”
“If you kill me, aren’t you afraid that the academy will find out and punish you?”
Chu Mo’s expression was calm as he indifferently said, “The academy strictly forbids students from killing each other. Once discovered, they will immediately revoke your cultivation. You should already know this.”
“Who would possibly know that it was me who killed you?”
Zhou Qi smiled in disdain and glanced around. “Besides, even if the academy finds out, what can they do?”
“It is obvious that Mu Zhi encountered the Giant Berserker Bear and killed it after a fierce battle. You took advantage of Mu Zhi’s weakened state to launch a sneak attack. You’ve killed a fellow student… I, Zhou Qi, happened to pass by and witnessed your cruel act. Instantly filled with righteous rage and indentation, I killed the useless scum called Chu Mo! With this, not only will the academy not blame me, they will even reward me!”
“After your death, Chen Xiwei can be taken into my room… It’s just a pity. I originally wanted to let you personally witness Chen Xiwei moaning in ecstasy beneath me, but now… Ha! You won’t be able to see it!” Saying this, Zhou Qi even showed a trace of regret on his face.
“Actually, you and I originally hold no deep animosity towards one another! Under normal circumstances, a lofty existence like me would never pay attention to someone as lowly and pathetic as you! But… you’ve made a mistake. You become Chen Xiwei’s fiance. You, a piece of garbage without cultivation Talent dares to mess with my woman!”
“Being able to become Chen Xiwei’s fiance is your fortune, but it’s also your misfortune. In the end, it is the misfortune of being weak!” Zhou Qi Loudly declared with emotions of justified indignation.
“You’re right!” Chu Mo nodded.
Hearing this, Zhou Qi was a bit surprised.
Then, as if realizing something, he came to a sudden understanding. “Don’t tell me you think that death is imminent, so you want to agree with my words in order to beg for your life? That’s impossible…”
“You misunderstood me.” Chu Mo shook his head, interrupting Zhou Qi’s words. “What I mean is… Chen Xiwei is my woman!”
“So…” He looked at Zhou Qi and said calmly, “I’m afraid I’ll have to ask you to die!”
As his voice fell, a surging power suddenly erupted from his body!
