9. Fighting boar again

Ling Chen quickly found the tigertoothed boar, it was resting in a cave. " I should lure it out of the cave or I won't be able to utilize my speed in that cave." 

Ling Chen picked up a small rock and threw it toward the boar's head.

'BANG '

"Roar "

With a bang,     it hit on boar's head. It roared angrily and came out of the cave. three  Ling Chen standing there he grew even angrier. Previously Ling Chen stole the 'treasure' it was guarding and it had to clash with that troublesome firefox.

With a roar, it charged toward Ling Chen and swiped its claw at his head.

Ling Chen was quick in reacting, he ducked down to dodge the claw strike, then he struck at the boar's one hind leg with a kick. Boar stumbled and lost his balance, ling then went behind its back and threw consecutive punches on the back of its head. 

Boom! Boom! Boom!

Every punch was like a hammer striking iron. with every punch, the boar would shriek in agony. Ling Chen's strength was very astounding for a 4th layer body tempering realm martial artist.

Although Ling Chen's strength was good boar had very high defence even after more than 20 punches to the head, he couldn't break its skull. But his Punches caused the boar pain in its head and it started attacking ling Chen in a frenzy.

Ling Chen dodged every one of his strikes. this tigertoothed was only a low-grade wild beast, its only strong points were his thick hide and abnormal strength which can seriously injure even a 6th layer body tempering realm martial artist if even a single strike were to land. but in terms of speed and agility, it couldn't compare to ling Chen.

' I can't easily kill it with my current skills, it's going to be a prolonged battle. But it is also a great opportunity for me to gain battle experience and I can also use this boar to improve my fighting skills. after all from now onwards there will many enemies on my road of martial arts.' Ling Chen thought and started to temper himself as the " Bang "   

" Boom "

" Roar! "

"..."

There were many collision sounds. Ling Chen would dodge then smoothly land one of his punches kick. as the fight went on his fight skills visibly improved. Now his movements weren't as crude as before and his tough hide started showing signs of breaking apart but ling Chen was also panting, it was clear that he used most of his stamina due to his initial inexperience.

" Now it is the time to put an end to this battle." Ling Chen roared and put all of his strength into a single punch and straight toward the boar and threw the punch at its neck.

" BANG "

  

" Snap "

Ling Chen's punch landed right on the boar's neck,  following it was the snapping sound. Because Ling then concentrated all his strength on the 4th layer body tempering realm, its neck snapped without any suspense. this punch could even break a boulder not to mention a low-grade wild beast's neck.

After killing the boar, Ling Chen fell to the ground on his bottom. He was panting heavily, he exhausted all his stamina and strength in this fight.

" Hahaha, finally I can fight without getting beaten up. I'll see who will be strong enough to bully me now. "

Ling Chen got very excited after this fight. Before whenever he tried to fight back his bullies he would be beaten up pretty badly. But now he can save himself from being bullied on the streets.

After a moment, he got up and took the boar's dead body to its cave, where he rested and recovered his exhausted Qi and stamina.

Then he took a kitchen knife out of his bag and started shaving off its skin slowly and then started a fire, grilled its meat. and Started eating it.

Although the meat wasn't as tasty as the one available in restaurants it was quite tasty in its own right and after an exhausting fight, you'll like anything you eat.

Even after eating his fill, he could only finish a part of its thigh. These 2 meters tall and bulky boar might last him for many days.

" No wonder, hunters and martial artists who always go hunting or fighting. They don't care about having their meals on time. they can just hunt one beast down whenever they feel like having a meal. only common people are always concerned about their meals. Martial artists do not have to worry about these things and only focus on cultivation and improving their strength."

" Now that I don't have to worry about my food or stronger beasts in this outer area of the mountain, I should just cultivate and fight and hunt down wild beasts so that my strength can improve as well as my fighting experience."

" Now that I think about it, in about a month, I'll be 14 years old, I wonder what grade my martial ' talent ' will be." Ling Chen wondered aloud. After someone becomes 14 years old they can have their martial arts talent or unique Qi* tested to check their grade.

''But for now, I should focus on my fighting techniques and my cultivation.'' Deciding this he started searching for mid-grade beasts and fighting them to properly get used to them. when he exhausted himself he would rest and cultivate.

...

After one month of near life-threatening fights and cultivation, Ling Chen got more proficient in fighting and his cultivation improved and he reached the 5th layer body tempering realm.
