Taking a glance at the map every now and then, he went around three kilometers into the forest after 40 minutes.

Shi Li looked around and saw that there were no monsters in sight. He opened his satchel and took out the Beast Luring Herb included in the basic survival kit.

Within seconds, Shi Li's surroundings was covered in a smell that was quite putrid. Shi Li covered his nose after he took a whiff.

'This Beast Luring Herb's smell is quite strong. I hope it attracts at least one beast.'

And so the wait for a beast to come to Shi Li started.

One minute in…

Three minutes in…

Five minutes in…

Eight minutes in…

By the ten minute mark, Shi Li sighed and started to walk further in. But at the last moment, he heard a rustling sound from behind him, prompting him to stop.

He turned around and went behind a tree that could cover his body with no problem. He didn't want to scare the beast with his presence.

A minute later after Shi Li hid behind the tree, the beast went to where the herb was, showing its appearance to Shi Li. The beast was at the height of Shi Li's waist, with a length of more or less three meters. Its fur was of a dark gray hue, all from the top of its pointy ears to the ends of its four paws. The beast also had sharp teeth that could imprint fear into anyone that looked at it.

This beast was a wolf.

But that wasn't the most important part. The most important was that it didn't exude any aura, classifying the wolf as a beast that hasn't started cultivation. Realizing this, Shi Li sighed in relief.

When someone steps on the path of cultivation, that person would start exude an aura, either consciously or unconsciously. This was also a way for other cultivators to know if the enemies they were facing were stronger or weaker than them. If their aura was able to suppress the aura the enemy releases, then the enemy was weaker than them. If their aura was suppressed by the enemy, then the enemy was stronger than them.

Shi Li waited for it to get closer to the tree he was hiding behind.

Closer…

Closer…

Closer…

Once the wolf was about half a meter away from the tree, Shi Li jumped in front of the wolf with his fist clenched, scaring the wolf into its body freezing up.

Noticing this, Shi Li charged at the wolf as he punched on the top of the wolf's head, only for the wolf to dodge it by a small amount.

Rather than Shi Li's fist landing on the wolf's head, it instead landed on the ground with a thud, creating a small crater.

Shi Li looked at the wolf that was sneering at him. The wolf's body freezing up was all a facade, revealing Shi Li to the wolf.

He couldn't help but mutter out in this situation.

"Shit."

The wolf took a few steps backward and ran towards Shi Li with its jaw wide open, aiming for Shi Li's legs.

Taking a deep breath, Shi Li analyzed his current situation. Even though he didn't have any combat experience, he would use one of his advantage as much as possible, and that was intellect.

'The wolf is running towards me as it speeds up. I have three options here. I could step back, but it would continue on chasing me. I could face the wolf head-on and punch it on its eyes, but I would risk getting bitten, and worse, inducing the wolf's rage.'

'I guess that leaves me the last option.'

His thinking process only a breath's amount of time to be done as the wolf got even closer. At the moment when the wolf was closing its jaws to bite on Shi Li's leg, Shi Li utilized all of the strength and rotated as he moved to the right side of the wolf, catching it off guard.

The wolf looked at Shi Li with surprise. Shi Li smiled as he clenched his fist and striked at the wolf's right abdomen.

Bang!

The wolf was sent flying as it collided with a nearby tree.

'Oof, that's gotta hurt,' Shi Li thought.

The wolf landed on its feet as it looked at Shi Li, growling. The wolf's plan was outsmarted by the human in front of it, making it go into a frenzy.

The wolf endured the pain it received and charged towards Shi Li who was prepared for the wolf's attack.

Growl!

The wolf ran towards Shi Li until there was only a gap of a few meters between them. At the moment the wolf reached that distance, it jumped as it swiped its claws downward, aiming for Shi Li's face.

Shi Li easily dodged the claw by bending his knees. He then retaliated with an uppercut to the wolf's underbelly.

Bang!

With the power of 30 ren into that uppercut, the wolf was sent up into the air to a height of over twenty meters. He went behind the tree again as he looked at the outcome calmly.

'With the wolf at that height, once it falls down, it's definitely gonna die.'

The speed of the wolf's ascent started to decrease until…

It started falling.

The wolf's speed grew higher and higher, making the fur on its body point upward due to the wind. A few seconds after the wolf started falling, it fell to the ground with a…

Splat!

The wolf's body was in shambles. The wolf tried to reduce the collision force by landing on its legs, but it ended up breaking all of it. The collision force was reduced, but only by a small amount.

Afterwards, the legs folded, revealing the bones and joints of the wolf's legs as the wolf's head hit the ground with a thud. The landing also broke the wolf's ribcage, ending up with the wolf vomiting blood from it.

With the wolf's head landing that hard, it was only a matter of time before it went unconscious. After a few seconds of silence, Shi Li came close to the wolf and poked at it. There was no response at all.

Knowing that it was safe, he gestured his hand into a drill, and pierced through the wolf's skull like butter with his 30 ren of strength, turning its brain into mush.

With the brain turned into mush, the resistance on the wolf's joints were loosened, landing on the ground slowly.

Shi Li retracted his hand from the wolf's skull and looked at it. His hand was dyed red with some bits of pink getting stuck in between his fingers. This was the wolf's brain matter.

He then shook his hand as he looked at the wolf, feeling proud.

'This is the first fight I've taken in this world.' In just 5 days, from a playboy that had no combat power, he became someone that was able to kill a normal wolf without a problem.

He then lifted the wolf up and closed the wounds with some plants in the surroundings. He also covered the blood stains from the wolf with dirt.

'The stench of blood could easily attract any beast. I should use this wolf as my bait instead.'

With his mind made up, he carried the wolf by his shoulder as he made sure that no blood was leaking out. After making sure, he opened up the map from the interface and continued to walk further in.

'I wonder if I can fight some Skin Tempering realm beasts.'
