The next day.

As soon as it was light, Wang Ming woke up and immediately entered the game.

Upon entering the game, Wang Ming headed straight for the wilderness, arriving at the location of level 2 monsters.

Bull Demon (Ordinary)

Level: 2

Realm: Acquired Level 2

Life: 180

Attack: 16

Defense: 10

Description: Physically strong but simple-minded, a common wild animal in beginner villages.

These bull demons were enormous, with muscular bodies and sharp horns. They were munching on grass, not even glancing at Wang Ming.

Wang Ming approached a wild bull demon and threw a punch at its body.

-28.

-28.

-6.

-7.

-6.

-14.

With one punch, the bull demon's health dropped by half.

"Roar~" The bull demon raised its head and looked at Wang Ming, not realizing for a moment that it had been attacked.

After a soft call, the bull demon attacked Wang Ming.

Seeing the massive body of the bull demon charging towards him, Wang Ming immediately dodged to the side.

“mISS!”

A huge "miss" appeared above Wang Ming's head; Wang Ming had actually dodged the Bull Demon's attack.

"I... I dodged the bull demon's attack?"

Wang Ming was somewhat surprised. Instead of attacking the bull demon, he stood still and provoked the bull.

"Roar~" White breath billowed from the bull's nostrils as it charged at Wang Ming again.

Wang Ming sidestepped again, dodging the bull's attack once more.

"You dodged it again!"

"The bull was slow, but my thinking and movements seemed to have become more agile, which is why I was able to avoid its attacks."

Wang Ming was delighted, knowing that this was because his five basic attributes—strength, intelligence, physical strength, spirit, and agility—had increased.

The character's speed, reaction speed, and other abilities also increase accordingly.

"Great, this way I can kill monsters without taking any damage."

Wang Ming threw another punch, killing the bull demon instantly.

"System notification: Congratulations, you have killed the Bull Demon and gained 30 experience points and 1 merit point."

"System notification: Your cultivation technique - Soul Devouring has been successfully activated, gaining 1 point of Spirit attribute."

After killing the bulls, Wang Ming charged straight into the herd.

"System notification: Congratulations, you have killed the Savage Bull Demon and gained 30 experience points, 1 Savage Bull Hide, and 1 merit point."

...

...

Wang Ming relentlessly slaughtered the bull demons, and more than two hours passed in the blink of an eye, during which his experience points increased by about one-third.

In addition to the monstrous bull demon, Wang Ming also killed three mutated monstrous bull demons.

This mutated bull demon was also an elite monster, with an attack power of 24 points and more than 300 health points, but even so, it couldn't withstand more than a few punches from Wang Ming.

"Ugh, this isn't challenging at all."

Wang Ming was getting bored with repeatedly killing the bull demons and felt an itch to go to the territory of higher-level monsters to kill them.

But when Wang Ming thought about how the Soul Eater had just stolen another 8 points of basic attributes, he became conflicted again.

"Damn it, hold on, attribute points are more important. Can't you see there are still a lot of level 3 players killing monsters here? I'm only level 2, what's the rush?"

Wang Ming muttered to himself, but ultimately stayed there and continued to kill the bull demon.

After a fierce battle lasting four hours, Wang Ming leveled up again.

"System notification: Congratulations, your level has increased to level 3, and you have gained 20 health points, 10 mana points, and 5 free attribute points."

Wang Ming roughly calculated that from level 2 to level 3, he had killed at least 140 Savage Bull Demons and more than a dozen mutated Savage Bull Demons.

During this period, a total of 35 attribute points were stolen, including 3 free attribute points.

Two 2-star equipment items were also discovered.

Wang Ming allocated 5 points of free attribute to Strength and 3 points to Stamina, then looked at his character attributes.

......

"That feels good."

Looking at his stats, Wang Ming headed straight for the level 3 monsters, and arrived there half an hour later.

Then, Wang Ming used his Insight skill on the nearest monster.

Cat Fairy (Normal)

Level: 3

Realm: Acquired Level 3

Life: 280

Attack: 22

Defense: 13

Description: The cat demon is agile and is one of the more dangerous monsters in the beginner village.

Looking at the area where the cat demon was, Wang Ming frowned deeply.

The cat fairy's attributes weren't particularly strong for Wang Ming, and his frown wasn't because of the cat fairy, but because of the players here.

That's right, these are the players here, there are just too many players here.

Wang Ming felt as if he had returned to when he first entered the newbie village. Although it wasn't quite that exaggerated, it wasn't much different.

It's no wonder there are so many players here. Right now, everyone is focused on leveling up, and some people are even grinding all night. So most people are at level 3.

That's why there are so many people here.

Sure enough, while Wang Ming was in a daze, the cat demon in front of him was attacked by someone else.

"Holy crap, is this for real? This guy can't even get any monsters."

Wang Ming finally understood why there were so many level 3 players in the level 2 Bull Demon area – it was because they couldn't get the Cat Fairy!

"Damn it, the level of the bull demon is too low and doesn't meet the requirements for triggering the Soul Devouring skill, so we definitely can't go."

"But killing monsters of a higher level grants extra experience points... which speeds up the leveling process..."

"Cao, forget it. We can't get any monsters here. For now, we can only go to the level 4 monster area."

Wang Ming cursed, then crossed the cat demon's territory and headed towards the area of ​​level 4 monsters.

"System notification: The monsters here are higher level than you. Please proceed with caution!"

...

...

As soon as Wang Ming entered the area, the system issued three notification sounds in a row.

This made Wang Ming a little nervous, but when he saw that there were still some players here, he relaxed a bit.

Although Wang Ming is only level 3, his attributes are not low. He has 46 attack power, which is higher than even a level 3 spirit swordsman with full strength points and a 2-star weapon.

His own health points were close to 300, not much different from the Overlord's.

It could be said that Wang Ming alone is equivalent to a three-person team. If others dare to come, he is even less afraid.

Wang Ming cautiously advanced and came to a monster, where he checked its attributes.

Explosive Dog (Normal)

Level: 4

Realm: Acquired Level 4

Life: 390

Attack: 28

Defense: 17

Description: They are short-tempered and bloodthirsty predators, making them one of the more dangerous monsters in the beginner village.
