Lin Mu naturally wouldn't give it a chance to escape.

The moment he arrived before it, the wooden club in his hand came crashing down fiercely.

A violent onslaught surged forth at that instant.

The Wolf King let out a pained howl, copious amounts of blood gushing from its body.

At that moment, Lin Mu discarded the now-broken wooden club, turned his hand into a fist, and slammed it heavily into the Wolf King.

A series of Dragon's Roars rang out.

Under the Dragon Roar Fist, the Wolf King's aura rapidly dissipated.

The surrounding wolves, witnessing this, had terror in their eyes.

They were Fierce Beasts after all, possessing a certain intelligence.

With the Wolf King dead, how could they possibly be a match for Lin Mu?

However, Lin Mu didn't kill the Wolf King outright; he only wounded it gravely, then charged toward the other wolves.

Though the wolves feared Lin Mu, as long as the Wolf King wasn't dead, they wouldn't easily flee.

Because they were creatures of extreme obedience.

As long as their leader remained, they would fight to the very end.

One by one, wolves died at Lin Mu's hands, and his Points steadily rose.

After about ten minutes, a large number of wolves lay dead by Lin Mu's hand.

The already severely wounded Wolf King, seeing this, died on the spot from rage and heartbreak.

Lin Mu stretched his waist, a hint of satisfaction on his face.

Having slain so many Fierce Beasts in a row, his Points must have increased considerably.

With that thought, Lin Mu walked forward.

Bai Mo caught up.

"Wait!"

Lin Mu turned back to look at her: "What's up?"

"You, what's your name?"

"Lin Mu!"

"I'm Bai Mo. Can we get to know each other?"

"No need for that!" Lin Mu said.

Hearing this, Bai Mo's expression shifted slightly.

She was at least a pretty girl—was this guy really so cold?

"You're aiming for a ranking, right?" Bai Mo called out again.

Lin Mu stopped: "So?"

"I can help you!" Bai Mo said.

"I'm very familiar with this place. With my help, you can definitely break into the top ten!"

Lin Mu's face showed confusion: "You're familiar with this place?"

"En!" Bai Mo came up to Lin Mu, pulled out a map, and unfolded it.

"Look, this is the terrain here. Based on how the Ministry of Education set things up, they probably placed the stronger Fierce Beasts in this area, because the terrain is complex, and any student who can get in here won't be weak."

"Also, even though your combat power is strong, if you want to make the top ten, you'll have to take down one of these Fierce Beasts!" Bai Mo explained.

"Why?" Lin Mu asked.

"These Fierce Beasts only have a Blood Qi Value of 3.0, but they're extremely hard to deal with, so the Points they give are high—about 1,000 Points each."

"Do you think you can get into the top ten without taking them down?" Bai Mo asked.

Lin Mu's expression shifted slightly.

He understood what Bai Mo meant.

Even though he had already killed quite a few Fierce Beasts, others weren't idle either.

In the Top Class, there were those with Blood Qi Values above 3.0.

They wouldn't be slow at hunting Fierce Beasts either.

And each of these Fierce Beasts gave a lot of Points.

Being able to kill one would indeed boost his chances.

"Also, I might as well tell you, the people from the Ministry of Education are watching this Monthly Examination too."

"They'll give some support to those who perform well. If you can kill these Fierce Beasts, you'll naturally catch their attention!" Bai Mo explained.

Lin Mu's eyes were fixed on her. He knew the woman before him was no ordinary person.

To have a map of this place and even know the Ministry of Education's deployment—she clearly had a formidable background.

"Fine! Then tell me, what should I do?" Lin Mu asked.

A hint of a smile played on Bai Mo's face. "I know a path that can get us close to them quickly. But whether you can hunt them down depends on your skill."

Lin Mu nodded. "No problem."

"Which class are you in? I don't recall ever seeing you."

"Class 17."

"Someone as strong as you in Class 17? That's unbelievable! What's your V?"

"..."

The two figures walked forward. Bai Mo showed great interest in Lin Mu, constantly probing for information about him.

Elsewhere outside the jungle, an old man sat in a chair, laughing and chatting with a group of people. His expression shifted slightly.

His eyes fell on Bai Mo walking alongside Lin Mu, and an indescribable feeling stirred within him.

The few old men beside him couldn't resist teasing him a bit, making him even more embarrassed.

After all, she was a granddaughter of the Bai Family. How could she be so forward?

Did she not know a little restraint?

As Lin Mu and Bai Mo moved forward, one Fierce Beast after another fell dead at their hands.

Bai Mo seemed uninterested in rankings. Every time they encountered a Fierce Beast, she never made a move.

They eventually arrived at a Mountain Stream.

Surrounded by mountains on all sides, the terrain was treacherous. Without Bai Mo leading the way, Lin Mu would never have found it.

"That White Ape is one of the most powerful Fierce Beasts in the entire jungle. It has a Blood Qi Value of 3.1 and is incredibly agile. We'll ambush it from over there. If we work together, we can definitely take it down!" Bai Mo pointed at the White Ape hiding beneath a large tree.

The White Ape stood about two meters tall, its entire body covered in white fur. Two faint golden stripes marked its chest, and its eyes held a faint crimson glow. It exuded an extremely dense aura of ferocity.

Clearly, it was no ordinary Fierce Beast.

Lin Mu's expression remained calm as he looked at Bai Mo. "Do you have a blade?"

Bai Mo nodded. With a wave of her hand, a brand-new Alloy Blade materialized in her grasp.

Lin Mu's expression shifted slightly. He recognized it—a Space Bracelet, capable of storing items and extremely valuable.

With his current financial situation, he couldn't afford one.

"That's enough!" Lin Mu's face showed a hint of calm. He leaped forward, charging straight at the White Ape.

Seeing this, Bai Mo's expression changed.

That was a White Ape with a Blood Qi Value of around 3.1. It was naturally savage and had mastered multiple skills. An ordinary martial artist with a Blood Qi Value of 3.1 would struggle to be its match.

Under her watchful gaze, Lin Mu had already reached the White Ape.

His blade technique was exceptionally refined, like a walking Flowing Dragon.

He swung at it with a terrifying momentum.

The White Ape noticed Lin Mu's movements and let out a roar.

Its body retreated, and a dark, inky blackness emerged on its front claws.

Fossil Fist!

One of its innate skills.

Its fists came at Lin Mu like solid rock.

Lin Mu's figure weaved and dodged, executing Flowing Dragon Steps.

The long blade in his hand danced continuously, the sound of air splitting ringing out.

The White Ape then emitted a piercing sonic wave from its mouth, and a qi arrow shot forth.

Chi!

The sound of tearing air arrived almost instantly. The qi arrow was right in front of Lin Mu!!
