With only half a month left before the start of the new semester at the Saint Academy, the entrance exams for the Saint Academy's general admissions are in full swing.
The test was conducted at Qixia Mountain, on the outskirts of Shangmou City.
The monsters on the mountain are not high-level, but there are many of them, making it a suitable place to take exams.
However, a saber-toothed tiger was recently spotted in Qixia Mountain.
The candidates taking the entrance exam were mostly at the mid-stage of Martial Apprentice, while Saber-toothed Tiger was already at the mid-stage of Martial Realm. If the two were to meet, the candidates would be like lambs to the slaughter.
Therefore, Shang Yanting had to go to Qixia Mountain to deal with the saber-toothed tiger in order to prevent any mishaps on the Shang Mou family's territory.
##
A large river separates Qixia Mountain from Shangmou City.
Aside from martial artists, ordinary people rarely cross the river. Shang Yanting's large ship, which was sailing on the river, slowly came to a stop.
As soon as we reached the outskirts of Qixia Mountain, the howls of wild beasts rose and fell, the stench of blood mixed with the earthy smell hit us, and every now and then we could hear the screams of examinees echoing through the mountains and forests.
Hundreds of examinees are hunting Flame Wolves in the mountains and forests.
As they ventured deeper into the forest, the group discovered the carcass of a monster whose heart had been removed. Besides the monster's corpse, numerous scattered and rotting human organs further demonstrated just how dangerous the forest had become.
The servants of the Shang family surrounded Shang Yanting, moving cautiously through the jungle, tracking the saber-toothed tiger's movements.
Not long after, the sounds of fierce fighting came from afar, presumably from the examinees who were killing the Flame Wolves.
"Brother Mo Yun, be careful!"
"It's here!"
"Run! Run!"
The sounds of fighting came from the jungle, and in the distance, there were figures of people and beasts moving about, and the smell of blood grew stronger.
"Young Master, be careful!"
Shang Yanting's attendants drew their swords and stood in front of them, cautiously looking ahead without rushing to help. But the people were running towards them, followed by two fiery wolves.
The Flame Wolf looks similar to an ordinary wolf, but it is much larger and moves incredibly fast, suddenly pouncing forward and knocking down the last examinee.
"ah!"
The examinee screamed in agony as the flesh on his face was torn off by the Flame Wolf.
The surrounding companions threw various attacks at the Flame Wolf, but this not only had no effect, but also enraged the Flame Wolf even more. Their fur stood on end, and their bodies burst into flames.
The Flame Wolf instantly increased its combat power, tearing apart the person it was pressing down on, and pounced towards the direction with the most people.
The two Flame Wolves were clearly more ferocious and crazed than the ordinary Flame Wolves. The group was scorched by the flames and suffocated by the thick smoke. Their screams and cries for help grew fainter and fainter.
Just as they were about to be completely finished, Shang Yanting took out his bow and arrow, aimed at one of the Flaming Wolves, and drew the bowstring taut.
call out--
The specially designed arrow pierced the sky and landed precisely in the head of the Flame Wolf.
With a muffled thud, the Flame Wolf collapsed, lifeless. The flames that had gathered around its body burned away, revealing its corpse. The other wolf seemed to sense the danger; it looked up, then quickly extinguished its flames and darted into the jungle.
"Brother Yanting!"
The person they rescued was actually an acquaintance.
Song Yu'er's voice arrived before she did.
She was shielded among the surviving examinees, looking at the pale-faced, tearful male protagonist standing against the light, "The Flaming Wolf was so scary just now, Yu'er almost didn't get to see you again."
Did you come all this way just to see me?
The guards following Shang Yanting all lowered their heads, not daring to tell Miss Song the truth, only hoping that Miss Song wouldn't think too much about it.
As it turns out, Song Yu'er not only thought a lot, but she also had unrealistic expectations.
She voluntarily took the slain fiery wolf for herself and even made a request to Shang Yanting.
“Brother Yanting, you and Brother Moyun are both close relatives in the Shang family. He didn’t get a promotion because of you, so please bring one for him as an apology.”
Meanwhile, Mo Yunge, standing next to her, was looking at the two of them with a pale face, her expression not one of gratitude, but one of humiliation and indignation.
Jia Xitong recognized the man at a glance in her mind's eye—
Isn't he the one who ambushed the male lead last time, and was thrown off the field by the male lead along with his henchmen?
The male lead saved him, yet he still harbors such hostility. What kind of apology does he need to make?
A spoiled and brainless
One person with high aspirations
The hardcore gamer, eager to join the fun, squatted in the male protagonist's sea of consciousness and gave the two of them accurate evaluations.
Shang Yanting ignored Song Yu'er. At this moment, he frowned and gripped the long sword tightly in his hand.
The other Flame Wolf wasn't killed because he ran away.
Because of Shang Yanting's attitude, the others couldn't help but quiet down as well.
A gentle breeze blew by, carrying with it a foul, damp smell and faint screams, and everyone felt a strange sense of oppression.
A strong wind arose, and a howling sound rang out.
A tiger with long fangs and a body the size of a water buffalo pounced on Shang Yanting from behind.
It was the saber-toothed tiger he had been tracking along the way!
Upon seeing this giant monster, everyone tensed up and retreated.
They couldn't even defeat the Flaming Wolves, let alone the Saber-toothed Tiger, who was at the mid-stage of the Martial Realm.
The only one on the scene capable of challenging it was Shang Yanting. He drew his sword, the gleaming blade reflecting his calm gaze.
It's here!
The man and the tiger clashed.
Both sides possessed the strength of the Martial Realm.
The saber-toothed tiger was enormous and incredibly strong; every step it took sent mud flying, displaying its ferocity and might.
Shang Yanting moved with agility, wielding a long sword and channeling his true energy into it; even a casual slash could leave a deep sword mark on the ground.
As a cultivator at the half-step Martial Master level, Shang Yanting should have been even better. He swung his longsword at the saber-toothed tiger's head, and with a "clang," the hilt of the sword made his hand go numb.
wrong!
