Primordial Harem System

Chapter 45: First Battle



"He will be able to do it. If he wants to survive in this cruel world then it is a necessity to be able to kill one's enemies without a shred of mercy."

Huo Rong and Bing Rong agreed with her as they nodded their heads.

Shen Yuxin waved her hand and took out a big mirror. It started floating in front of the three of them, it reflected the image of Shen Yuan who was still walking towards the jungle.

"With this, we can monitor his condition, but we won't interfere until he is really about to die. After all, we can't really let him die, he can learn about this slowly." Shen Yuxin spoke as she looked at the mirror, Huo Rong and Bing Rong also looked at the mirror and began commenting on random things.

Shen Yuan entered the forest slowly, inside he could only see tall trees and grass everywhere. The occasional sighting of insects and small animals also made him cautious.

"The majority of the techniques that I learned are low-level, I haven't practiced much with the higher level techniques, I only know 2-3 high-level techniques and even those are not properly mastered. But even using those half-assed techniques will be too much for these beasts and criminals."

He thought for a second as he continued, "I shouldn't use them otherwise, it will be child's play to finish off all these beasts, I will only use Basic Sword styles to fight until I am in this training zone." He thought to himself, as he didn't just want to have a walk here for fun, he needed some actual life-threatening battles to hone himself.

"But my physical strength alone makes me nearly invincible in Qi Refinement Realm and Foundation Establishment Realm, even Inner Sea realm cultivators might not be my match." He thought for a long time and finally decided to seal his own physical strength, he used a strange acupuncture technique, sealing 78-80% of his strength.

"Phew, now only Mom can unlock this seal for me or when I'm in a life-threatening battle." He nodded as he didn't want to cheat so he made the seal stronger than what he could unlock.

Since it was his first time in the outside world he was wary of everything. He went deeper and faced his first opponent. The Silver Fur Wolf is a formidable beast in the 4th level of the Foundation Establishment realm.

It mainly uses its sharp claws as a weapon and its fur as its shield. It was one of the most common monsters in this part of the forest.

Shen Yuan looked intently at the Wolf's movement, grabbing his sword tightly and preparing for any sudden attack. He was expecting the wolf to attack him as soon as it saw him, but it was taking its time to make the situation more advantageous for him.

As it seems like it was an experienced hunter, it didn't jump straight to fight with its prey, it was first a battle of mental fortitude. Whoever struck first will be at a disadvantage.

While Shen Yuan didn't know all of this stuff, he wasn't planning to stay still and let the wolf intimidate him. He utilized his body efficiently and sprinted forward.

Since he recently broke through to the Qi Refinement Realm he didn't have time to learn any technique for himself. So he can only make do with Basic Swordmanship and his movement technique which wasn't even a proper technique as this was what he learned while training himself.

He unsheathed his sword as soon as he was 5 meters away from the wolf, the wolf lowered its body to prepare for a charge.

It jumped towards Shen Yuan with its razor-sharp claws shining with a bloodthirsty light. Shen Yuan evaded its claws and tried to pierce its skin with his sword.

But it wasn't able to even make the wolf bleed. Shen Yuan jumped back, 'Why the hell is this beast's fur so tough, my sword can't even pierce it.'

He looked towards its sword and after seeing its simple look, he decided to move the qi from his dantian to the sword, coating the blade of the sword with a thin layer of qi to make it much more sharper.

"Let's see if your skin can withstand my qi-infused attacks as well." Shen Yuan activated his basic sword style but with qi this time, until now he was fighting without using his qi.

Shen Yuan grabbed the sword with both hands, but this time he didn't budge a single inch from the spot, waiting for the wolf to strike first.

"Grrr…"

The wolf made a growling noise as it sprinted toward Shen Yuan. It used its claws to stick again, but Shen Yuan parried the attack with his Sword.

"Clang!"

Sparks flew everywhere as the sword withstood the Wolf's attack, Shen Yuan's physical strength was already higher than the Wolf's, all he was missing was a good weapon. Now that he had coated it in qi, he decided to make the best use of it.

He tried to move forward but the Wolf's tail struck his right side, sending him flying backwards.

"Fuck! It can use its tail as a weapon as well?" Shen Yuan cursed as it didn't expect to be blown away by the Wolf's tail.

But he was injured by the attack as it was already more powerful than the wolf. Now he knew its attack pattern and its weapons. This time he sprinted towards the wolf.

Sliding to the right to dodge the claws. He pierced the wolf at its neck, cleanly making a hole in it.

The Wolf's body slumped down on the ground, its blood making the ground red. Shen Yuan didn't bother with the loot as he deemed it too inferior, he couldn't even make a decent pill with it.

He reflected on his battle with the wolf, he made some mistakes but he also learned from them. The whole purpose of this trip was to train himself.

"Good start, I can already see my shortcomings, it is my damn experience, due to my low Cultivation base I wasn't allowed to fight outside so I have next to no life-and-death experience. I will have to fight until I can't fight anymore to improve."

He made plans on how to move forward as he was also looking forward to what kind of disciples he would meet in the training ground. Will they be the arrogant young master type? Or will they be the sect's top disciples?

He couldn't wait to find that out.

He continued his journey through the forest, he also fought with more beasts, all of them ranging from the Qi Refinement realm to the 6th-level Foundation Establishment realm.

He took care of Qi refinement beasts with a single swing of his sword, same with all those below 4th level Foundation Establishment realm.

He chose to train with the 5th-level Foundation Establishment realm beast and above. But he couldn't find them so soon, since all beasts had their own territories. So most of his time was wasted on traveling.
