C7 Treating a Stage Two Demonic Wolf as Sparring Partner
Zhang Xing had arrived in the nick of time as he forced all the wild wolves back to the other side of the fire.
With his current cultivation level as an Intermediate Warrior, dealing with these mere wild wolves was simply child's play.
At this moment, the villagers stood petrified as they gazed at the six-year-old Zhang Xing with their mouths agape. They simply could not believe their own eyes.
The sudden change in the child was far too absurd for them to accept so easily.
Shock jolted through their minds as they recalled the past few days.
A few days ago, that thin child could barely run properly and even fell down often from lacking balance. Even when he was helping the village chief with some work, he could not even lift up a bundle of firewood.
But now, his thin and small body was surging with astonishing strength as he easily sent the wild wolves flying, saving everyone's lives.
Dumbstruck, the villagers stared at Zhang Xing's small back and suddenly felt a rather strange feeling that gave them a sense of security.
When the Demonic Wolf on the other side of the fire saw the corpses of his kin flying back towards it, a deep and furious growl sounded from its mouth.
All these wolves that had pledged to serve him was dying one after another.
When the villagers heard the sound of the Demonic Wolf, their hearts instantly tightened.
"Kid, that's a Demonic Wolf. Judging from its appearance, it should be one of the Second Stage. Not even the entire group of those wild wolves could possibly match up to it. You must be careful!"
The village chief's words were filled with genuine worry.
"Village chief, you don't need to worry. I'll be fine. The rest of you, stay back!"
Zhang Xing remained calm and spoke in a tone surging with confidence and determination that clearly did not match his age.
But everyone's attention was so focused on the Demonic Wolf posing the greatest threat that none of them noticed Zhang Xing's unusual attitude.
However, for whatever reason, neither were they in a state of panic any longer nor were they as scared as before.
Meanwhile, Zhang Xing knew nothing about the cultivation of this world, let alone the difference in power and strength amongst the stages of a Demonic Beast.
Even so, when the village chief mentioned the current stage of the Demonic Wolf, he could certainly feel faint violent energy lingering around the body of the Demonic Wolf.
In spite of that, he was fully confident that he could fight it!
The man and the beast confronted each other through the flame. As the Demonic Wolf laid low on the ground, its two bear-like front paws stood firmly on the ground while its two hind legs were bent like that of a grasshopper, prepared to leap into the air at any moment.
Zhang Xing was now starting to be more cautious of the Demonic Wolf's movements.
Since this was the first time he would be fighting with a Demonic Beast, it was inevitable for him to feel nervous.
As the Demonic Wolf's messy silver-gray fur fluttered along with the night breeze, it suddenly kicked down with its hind legs and pounced forward.
A bloody smell, which Zhang Xing found to be rather unpleasant, whiffed past his nose.
Resisting the urge to vomit, Zhang Xing stared fixedly and analyzed the trajectory of the Demonic Wolf as it pounced towards him.
Some of the villagers could not help but cry out in alarm.
"Kid, watch out!"
"All of you, quickly hide yourselves!"
Before the villagers could even finish speaking, Zhang Xing's battle against the Demonic Wolf had already commenced.
The Demonic Wolf extended its front paw in the air and swiped down at Zhang Xing's face.
As a counterattack, Zhang Xing squatted down and sent a somersault kick up towards the Demonic Wolf's abdomen.
However, the quick-witted Demonic Wolf turned sideways in the air and managed to dodge his kick albeit giving up its initial attacking.
Immediately after landing on the ground, the Demonic Wolf spared no time as it lunged back towards Zhang Xing in an attempt to grab hold of him.
Amidst their intense exchanges, Zhang Xing could tell that both their strength and speed rivaled that of each other.
Thus, killing this Demonic Wolf would not be an easy feat for him at this moment!
However, the Demonic Beast had the upper hand in this battle, for it was born with rough skin and thick flesh, much stronger than that of any ordinary human warrior.
Moreover, Zhang Xing was also much weaker in terms of their physique, especially since he was still a six-year-old child.
But since he couldn't kill the Demonic Wolf easily, he chose to treat it as his sparring partner for now.
Though Zhang Xing had the cultivation level of an Intermediate Warrior, he did not possess any martial techniques of the corresponding level. Thus, he could only use his bare fists and legs to fight the Demonic Wolf while taking advantage of the opportunity to increase his combat experience.
