Chapter 6: The Young Warrior Battles the Wild Wolf

I am pleased to come here this time, as I intend to select a wild wolf as a real combat opponent, to practice and enhance my skills in Shaolin Long Fist—training that may at most reach the beginner level. To truly grasp the essence of martial arts, one can only achieve this through actual combat.

The ferocity of adult wolves is gradually diminishing

The area outside the city is not a safe zone, but usually, as long as one does not stray too far from the city, encounters with bandits or robbers are unlikely. Bandits possess levels and intelligence; if one were to encounter someone skilled in martial arts, it could result in a fatal outcome, which would be a loss indeed. Happily, one arrives at the temple and skillfully navigates into the woods.

As Kaixin assumed the starting posture of Shaolin Long Fist, the adult wolf, resembling a black phantom, leapt high into the air, its sharp claws and fangs exuding the uniquely unpleasant odor characteristic of wild beasts, and pounced fiercely before him

This is also the reason why people in the martial world often provoke the opponent's state of mind before a battle

Sigh ... ...

The level of martial arts skills corresponds to the level of one's realm, including lethality, speed, and defensive capability

Unaware of how her thoughtless actions had added several lost souls to the city of Suzhou, she cautiously entered the forest using the technique of probing the way with stones, fixating on a solitary wild wolf.

What does he want to do with the * picture * book

Feeling the provocation of joy, the adult wolf fiercely tore several sharp marks from the ground, its figure disappearing from the spot once again, leaping high once more

From beginning to end, my gaze never left the body of the wild wolf. Every movement was clearly reflected in my mind: the initial stance, the spin, the capture. These three simple actions not only evaded the wolf's clawed attacks, but in the moment of sidestepping, my hands perfectly met the wolf's neck as it lunged, tightening my grip

After all, it is the strength of a child; despite the adult wolves howling in pain repeatedly, they have not truly suffered any fatal attacks. The joy, however, is of no concern, as they are completely immersed in the routine of restraint

For example, Shaolin Long Fist is a martial art that emphasizes strong defense. As the level increases, the power of each move correspondingly intensifies. A more intuitive analogy would be two sword-wielders attacking each other; the outcome hinges on whether you successfully deflect your opponent's blade (successful defense) or if your weapon is knocked away by your opponent, resulting in bloodshed

The goal of this journey is precisely that

Chain Kick

With a joyful grip of both hands, I seized the wolf's fur, and my right leg powerfully sprang out

A warrior who cannot remain calm is not superior in actual combat to a beast with lethal power

Those who come from the Murong family are not easily overlooked; this is a deception. Along the way, Kaixin has already attracted the attention of certain interested parties, who are lingering at a distance and have also begun to venture into the forest.

The wild wolf suddenly discovered a human intruding into its territory, and it was a young boy. A cruel light flashed in his pale green eyes, and with a shake of its limbs, it darted forward like an arrow released from a bow, its speed far surpassing that of an adult human.

Drink!

However

However, they were soon driven out

After three weeks of operation, Kai Xin quietly packed the wolf skin and wolf meat into a bundle, slung it over his shoulder, and walked deeper into the forest to continue searching for new solitary adult wolves

The woods beneath Hanshan Temple have always been home to wild beasts. It is quite common to encounter one or two wolves if one rashly ventures inside. Before reaching the exit, unless new players possess ample experience in dealing with wild animals or have sufficient numbers, it is very difficult for them to escape unharmed from these creatures.

Kai Xin still did not go to Zizhu Forest, but after practicing the Complete Truth Heart Method for three weeks and reading books, left Suzhou and arrived at Hanshan Temple in the western suburbs.

Although the adult wolf is in pain, the ferocity in its eyes becomes even more intense

Tiger Style

Dealing with wild wolves, one is confident and prepared.

Any newcomer facing a wild wolf for the first time, confronted with such fierce and rapid attacks, would find it rare to remain calm and unperturbed.

Although this journey did not allow for a completely joyful and unrestrained experience, the adult wolf did help him elevate his understanding of "Shaolin Long Fist" to a superficial level, reaching level 15.7. This was a result of engaging in combat with high-level beasts; had he sparred with newcomers of similar levels, the improvement in Shaolin Long Fist would likely have been much slower

Of course

Do not ask so many questions; just follow along and you will find out.

With a swift glance filled with joy and a slight upward curve of the lips, the levels of Shaolin Long Fist have indeed begun to increase again, confirming that I have come to the right place

Although the strength of the arm is limited, if a heavy blow lands on the face, even the fiercest beast cannot withstand it

The application of body techniques and martial skills is the most important

Accepting a complete wolf pelt and a large piece of wolf meat contributed by the wild wolf, I happily sat down in a meditative posture, practicing the True Heart Method to restore my energy

Understanding between the two sides, as well as the comprehension and application of techniques, has optimized the lethality and specificity of each move, effectively countering the instinctive attacks of adult wild wolves.

Martial skills are not solely determined by strength in deciding victory or defeat

With the attack power and speed of an adult wolf, it is normally capable of killing multiple newcomers. However, when encountering someone like Kai Xin, who possesses an extraordinary understanding of martial skills, the situation is entirely different

Of course

The roar that was on the tip of the tongue turned into a painful wail, with blood flowing incessantly from the corners of the mouth

The adult wild wolf is cunning, but its ability to adapt quickly is even greater. Almost at the moment the adult wild wolf launches its attack, it takes three steps in two strides to seize the opportunity. Before the adult wild wolf reaches its peak speed, a "Golden Dragon Extends Its Claw" is transformed into a pressing motion, intercepting the adult wild wolf mid-air with a single strike

The adult wild wolf is the master outside Hanshan Temple, often roaming the woods in search of prey, its combat ability not much inferior to that of a novice martial artist entering and exiting the realm.

However, happiness did not relent; it kicked one of the wild wolf's legs until it shattered, continuing its frenzied assault until it had exhausted all its strength, only then did it end the wild wolf's life

This time is different

Howl ! !

The threat posed by adult wild wolves still exists. If they gain the upper hand on wwwhetushu.com, the outcome of this battle will be difficult to predict

Being happy is not enough

Using a small force to achieve a great effect

The next day

The seagull absorbs water

Like the duel between joy and an adult wolf

In "Jianghu," the tangible presence of beasts is even more real than that of NPCs, as wolves are easier to analyze and understand. Their instincts are relatively singular, far inferior to those of humans. The wolves in the game are akin to the fierce wolves of the outside world, brutal carnivorous animals

Take advantage of its weakness to claim its life

I remember the first time I went out for actual combat. When the wild wolf approached, one of the three newcomers was quickly bitten to death amidst their flustered attempts. Their techniques were unable to even touch the body of the wild wolf, and in the end, they returned to the city in disgrace

Only the agile little figure of Kai Xin spun around, using the momentum to throw a fully grown wild wolf, larger than himself, which crashed violently into a nearby tree, howling in pain.

The Shaolin Long Fist skillfully unfolds from the hands of the joyful practitioner, resembling a nimble gibbon that playfully manipulates an adult wolf firmly within its grasp

Every time an adult wolf attempts to break free from control, Kai Xin is always able to cleverly pull it back, delivering a few soft punches; once the adult wolf retaliates fiercely, she immediately uses her agility to escape, or simply delivers a strong blow to its face
