“Whip!” Xu Wenjing stretched out her finger and drew a circle in the air.
At the tip of her finger, a dark green magical aura swirled.
As the circle was completed, a magic array appeared out of thin air.
The moment the magic array formed, four or five vine whips as thick as arms shot out, lashing through the air with a whoosh, striking at the Da Chi Bear.
This was a Da Chi Bear that had just awakened, still in its juvenile stage.
It hadn’t been awakened for long and didn’t know the difference between good and bad humans, so it just stood there, confused, letting the vines hit its body.
But all it felt was pain—there was no real harm.
The instant it felt pain, the Da Chi Bear realized this human had hurt it.
It immediately swung its thick forelimbs at the vines.
Known for its strength and defense, the Da Chi Bear easily snapped the vines without any effort.
“Roar~” The Da Chi Bear let out an angry roar at Xu Wenjing, then charged at her on its stubby legs.
But its speed was like a toddler just learning to run—totally unimpressive.
Xu Wenjing sidestepped, dodging easily, teasing the Da Chi Bear as she explained to the two newbies, “This kind of Da Chi Bear has really strong defense and attack.
Don’t ever let it hit you, or you’ll be half dead from just one blow.
The thing you need to watch out for most is its teeth.
It’s called Da Chi Bear because of those two big fangs—they’re its main weapon.
Its bite force is even stronger than its physical strength, so whatever you do, don’t get bitten.
You know what’ll happen if you do.”
“But its biggest weakness is its speed.” Xu Wenjing dodged another lunge from the Da Chi Bear, still calmly explaining to the newbies.
“So how do you kill it then? Didn’t you say its defense is really strong?” Lin Qiufeng, who was watching, asked curiously.
“Good question.
Watch how I do it.” Xu Wenjing finished speaking, stretched out her right hand, palm flat in the air, and gathered all her magic power into her palm.
Gradually, a whip made of pure magic formed in her hand.
As soon as it took shape, she cracked the magic whip, sending it whistling toward the Da Chi Bear.
The Da Chi Bear, seeing the attack coming, got angry and tried to block the “bad human’s” attack with both hands.
But just as the magic whip was about to hit its palms, something strange happened.
The whip suddenly curved, dodging its hands and striking straight at its weak spot.
A crisp “snap” echoed in the ears of the three people and the bear.
“The Da Chi Bear’s weak spot is its face.
That’s its only vulnerable area.” Xu Wenjing explained calmly, as if this Da Chi Bear was just a prop for her lesson with the two newbies.
And honestly, that was exactly the case.
When the whip dodged its hands, the Da Chi Bear was stunned for a second—wait, you can do that? Then it got smacked, its head buzzing, not knowing which way was up.
That one hit left it dazed on the spot, and it only snapped out of it when the pain set in.
“Oh, oh!” Lin Qiufeng pretended to listen intently.
Bai Ling nodded too, but she wondered if it was really okay to bully a little beast like this.
Didn’t her conscience hurt? But just then, the little beast that was supposed to be slaughtered suddenly opened its bloody mouth, and a magic array formed in front of it, drawing in the magical elements from the air.
“Hm?” Xu Wenjing noticed the Da Chi Bear’s change and her expression turned odd.
“This Da Chi Bear is actually in its juvenile stage, and it’s already awakened.
Be careful, you two.” Xu Wenjing’s face turned serious.
She couldn’t say for sure she could kill a juvenile Da Chi Bear, but if it had just awakened, there was still a chance.
As soon as the magic array formed, countless magical attacks shot at Xu Wenjing.
Xu Wenjing didn’t dare take them head-on.
This was the Da Chi Bear’s innate magic—if she messed up, the whole fight could turn around in an instant.
The Da Chi Bear’s magic attacks flew at Xu Wenjing, much faster than it could ever run.
Xu Wenjing tried to dodge, but the attack was too fast.
It tore her sleeve, revealing her fair skin tinged with a blush, but she had no time to care.
It was dangerous, but she managed to dodge.
This Da Chi Bear had just awakened and hadn’t grown up yet, still looking like a cub.
Otherwise, a juvenile Da Chi Bear wouldn’t be this short.
No wonder Xu Wenjing had misjudged it.
“Impact!” Xu Wenjing drew a magic array in front of her, and a vine as thick as a bucket shot out, slamming straight at the Da Chi Bear.
The Da Chi Bear raised its arms to block.
Its defense was strong, but since it had just awakened and hadn’t grown, the impact knocked it back several steps, its short legs sinking into the ground.
Xu Wenjing wasn’t done.
She didn’t dare slack off against a juvenile Da Chi Bear, even if it had just awakened—it was still way tougher than a cub.
“Entangle!” This time, she didn’t draw a magic array.
She just flicked her magic whip, sending it to wrap around the Da Chi Bear.
Weapons made of magic could change shape freely, but as an attack, they barely did any damage.
The Da Chi Bear was still recovering from the last hit when Xu Wenjing’s whip wrapped around its waist, flinging it into the air in a half-arc and slamming it into the ground for a close encounter.
Whether on purpose or not, the spot that hit the ground was its face.
Xu Wenjing figured once wasn’t enough, so she did it again.
This time, it didn’t hit the bear’s face, but it still wasn’t pleasant.
After a few rounds, the Da Chi Bear’s blood was churning, and it spat out a mouthful of blood.
Now the Da Chi Bear was completely spent, lying on the ground twitching.
Xu Wenjing stopped channeling magic into the whip, and it vanished into thin air.
She walked up to the Da Chi Bear, pulled out a small knife, and stabbed it in the face, ending its life.
Bai Ling couldn’t bear to watch the violence and turned her head away the moment Xu Wenjing flung the Da Chi Bear.
Lin Qiufeng, on the other hand, stared wide-eyed in shock.
After ending the Da Chi Bear’s life, Xu Wenjing cut out its signature big tooth, then walked over to the other two, excited.
This was an awakened Da Chi Bear—its teeth were worth a lot! Too bad it was a required item for the mission.
As she walked up to Lin Qiufeng, she heard her mutter under her breath, “Violent woman.”
Bai Ling nodded in strong agreement.
“I—#&*￥&￥#” Xu Wenjing was almost driven mad by the two of them.
These two guys are just talking big because they’re not the ones suffering.
