Chapter 8 Be reckless, otherwise...
"Who is that student? Why did he go in alone? That's too reckless!" Zhan Kong cursed from a distance. They had all heard the roar of the Ghost Wolf Beast.
"That's Mo Fan, the one with the best grades. He's also a fire mage, so it's normal for him to be a bit reckless."
"Besides, it's not a dimensional summoned beast inside; at most, it'll just get a little injured," the two teachers interjected.
"No, I have to go check it out." Tang Yue took the lead and Zhan Kong followed closely behind. Inside the cave, Mo Fan was being chased by the Youlang Beast.
"Wind Track - Speeding Up!"
Mo Fan created a new wind track for himself, preventing the Dark Wolf Beast from catching up with him for the time being. At the same time, he flung ball after ball of flame at the Dark Wolf Beast behind him.
The cave was small, and since Mo Fan was only using a level 1, low-level fire attack, the Dark Wolf Beast was forced to withstand it head-on, intending to bite the human in half.
"This should be about right!" Mo Fan looked around at the terrain, lingering for a second longer on a sharp boulder overhead.
The pursuing wolf beast noticed that Mo Fan's escape speed was decreasing, so it suddenly leaped up with its hind legs and pounced on Mo Fan.
"Earth wave - displacement!"
Brown star trails lit up, and ripples appeared on the hard ground. Just as the ghost wolf was about to pounce on him, Mo Fan used a low-level earth magic spell to move himself five meters away. Although Mo Fan did not meditate on earth magic as a movement skill, he did not relax his control over earth star points.
He was quite proficient with the skills Wind Track and Ground Wave, but his level 1 magic power was limited, so he couldn't use them many times.
Because Mo Fan dodged, the Ghost Wolf Beast crashed directly into the stone wall. "You beast, prepare to die!"
"Fire burns - bones scorch!"
The fire-elemental star track transformed into a ball of flame in Mo Fan's hand, which he hurled at the ghost wolf beast five meters away. The ghost wolf beast, which had just crashed into the stone wall, had no time to dodge and was directly hit by the flame.
The moment the crimson flames touched the Dark Wolf Beast, they clung to it like a leech, burning within its body. Bai Yang, who had a telepathic connection with the Dark Wolf Beast, also sensed it.
He didn't know why his Ghost Wolf Beast had gone out of control. At this moment, Zhan Kong and Tang Yue had just run a short distance away when Zhan Kong cursed, "What are you doing!" and directly used high-level magic to summon the Wings of Wind.
Tang Yue felt a pang of anxiety, but she wasn't as panicked as Zhan Kong. With the demon-binding tools he had given her, Mo Fan could at least escape. However, in theory, Mo Fan should have escaped by now.
Inside the cave, Mo Fan watched the Dark Wolf Beast being burned by flames. His lightning-based star trail technique was complete. "Lightning Seal - Wrathful Strike!"
A dazzling purple bolt of lightning descended from the sky, striking the struggling Shadow Wolf Beast precisely on the ground. Purple arcs of electricity danced across the Shadow Wolf Beast's body, mingling with the crimson flames, creating a poignant and beautiful scene.
"Waaaa, waaaa, waaaa!"
A mournful wolf howl echoed through the cave, and Zhan Kong, who was on his way, felt a little relieved. The howl meant that Mo Fan was still dealing with the Nether Wolf Beast, and there was still time.
The ghost wolf beast, paralyzed by lightning, was struggling much less inside the cave. There was a bloody hole as big as a bowl on its back. The beast's body was strong, and Mo Fan's level three lightning seal could not penetrate the ghost wolf beast's body. He guessed that he could try if he had a lightning-type spirit seed. Mo Fan would not let it go. Another ball of level two fire landed on the ghost wolf beast, and the original flames became even more intense.
The ghost wolf's screams grew even more piercing. The final straw that broke the camel's back was the sharp spearstone on the cave ceiling, which was struck down by Mo Fan's lightning magic, delivering the final blow to the ghost wolf.
The mournful howls of wolves finally ceased. Mo Fan, who had obtained a servant-level spirit, did not touch the corpse of the Nether Wolf Beast. He quickly retrieved the bracelet hidden in the cave and happened to run into Zhan Kong, who had come to the rescue. Behind him were a pair of pure white wind wings.
Tang Yue was slightly behind Zhan Kong. "Where is the Ghost Wolf Beast?" Zhan Kong asked.
"I slaughtered him." Mo Fan said it casually, as if he were butchering a pig.
Are you alone?
"Otherwise, I'd like to ask you, why would you send such a dangerous Dark Wolf Beast to us as a training subject? If I hadn't been holding back, I would have sent it today," Mo Fan retorted.
"Um... um, I admit it was our mistake." Zhan Kong was somewhat embarrassed.
"Oh, right, I got this bracelet. You can decide what the reward is. The Shadow Wolf Beast's corpse is inside." Mo Fan tossed the bracelet to Zhan Kong and walked out.
"Are you alright?" Tang Yue asked with concern.
"Luckily, just a small Ghost Wolf Beast, easy enough." Mo Fan laughed, his face full of confidence. This Ghost Wolf Beast was only considered average among the servant-level beasts.
"Be careful next time, don't be so impulsive, think things through more," Tang Yue advised. He didn't discourage Mo Fan; it's good for young people to have drive.
"Teacher Tang Yue, don't worry, I know what I'm doing and won't act recklessly. With the magic tool you gave me, at least escaping won't be a problem," Mo Fan said, patting his chest.
"Good to know. You need strength, but you can't lose your brain either." Tang Yue was still worried and gave Mo Fan a general check-up.
Back at the cave entrance, Zhang Xiaohou and the others immediately approached. They hadn't been inside long when Tang Yue, who had arrived, called them back out, "Brother Fan, what kind of demons are inside?"
"It's a Ghost Wolf Beast, not badly strong. As long as you can cast a level 2 beginner spell, you can deal with it," Mo Fan explained.
"We don't have a single Level 2 beginner here," Zhou Min said.
"So you're at the beginner level two?" Mu Bai reacted the fastest.
"Just broke through."
"You're really lucky." Mu Bai pouted, clearly unconvinced.
"How is the Ghost Wolf Beast?" Xu Zhaoting asked.
"I just happened to kill him," Mo Fan said.
"Just a coincidence?" Mu Bai and the others questioned.
"Yes, it was just a coincidence." Mo Fan emphasized again. He knew they wouldn't believe him if he said more, and they would just say he was bragging, so he might as well not say anything.
Back at the Snow Peak Mountain Inn, the entire Seed Class achieved an A grade. Zhan Kong bought a shield magic item for Mo Fan, called the Scythe Bone Shield.
Both Zhan Kong and Tang Yue examined the corpse of the Ghost Wolf Beast. Zhan Kong said nothing about the traces of lightning magic left on the corpse. Seeing Tang Yue's calm reaction, Zhan Kong could guess that Mo Fan had probably been won over by Tang Yue.
After the wilderness training ended, the rest of the time was vacation. Mo Fan arrived at Mingwen Girls' Middle School. At the school gate, Xin Xia was pushed to the gate by a classmate. After seeing Mo Fan, the classmate left immediately.
"Xinxia, how's the new phone I bought you last time?" Mo Fan pushed the wheelchair toward a park.
"It works well, but Brother Mo Fan, please don't buy such an expensive phone next time," Xin Xia said.
"Is it expensive? It's only a few tens of thousands of yuan. I'm a rich man now. You can use the living expenses I give you." Mo Fan spoke with the tone of a nouveau riche.
"Brother Mo Fan, you're still in school, how did you suddenly become rich?" Xin Xia asked worriedly.
"I'm a respectable person, I've never done anything wrong. I'm now a member of the Tribunal, and I get paid," Mo Fan said with a smile, showing his identification.
