The next day, when he had enough rest, he would enter the forest and fight with the soul beasts. According to the information given by his parents, the soul beats inside this forest were relatively weak. Of course, they were considered weak in front of his parents but for him, he still need to train further to come out of this forests alive. He estimated by the time he breakthrough into Spirit Grandmaster, he should had enough strength to dominate the soul beasts in the forest.
But he should take a baby step first, conscious enough about his weak strength at the moment. He took a step into the forests. He maximized all of his 5 senses to the utmost, readying himself against any possible sneak attack. After wandering for a while, he finally saw a soul beast, it was a monkey, generally known as Earth Monkey, possessing the ability to manipulate the earth. Luckily, it was not so advanced in term of age. He estimated that the monkey was only a ten year soul beast a sliver away from breaking through to a hundred year soul beast. This should be a decent warmup for him. He wanted to spar with his fists first rather than his swords. He should train his sword technique up to an acceptable level before engaging in a fight.
He did not deliberately conceal his presence, wanting to face the Earth Monkey in a straight up manner. After all, he was not an assassin, he believed in front of absolute power, all kind of schemes and acts would not of use anymore. Besides, he wanted to practiced his Soul Fist, only with overwhelming pressure would he managed to progress in his practice with top efficiency. He did not want to make his parents wait for a long time for him. Hence, every moment was precious for him as he wanted to transform his potential into strength as soon as possible.
The monkey noticed Li Wei immediately when he entered his zone. The monkey rushed quickly from the top of tree towards Li Wei, He crossed his hands to protect himself against the upcoming assault. When the two of them met with force, the monkey was forced to retreat even though it had a greater momentum than Li Wei, however, one should understood the body strength that Li Wei had. Li Wei has been tempering his body with inner strength since he was young, added to that equation was his inner strength which amplify his defense, especially for his inner organ. And his Human Spirit, he had realized later as he was training his Soul Fist, this spirit was an ultimate strength spirit, which was more incredible than any other elemental ultimate attribute spirit like ultimate ice or ultimate fire. His strength was unbelievably enough to wipe out all his peers on the same rank, maybe with enough factor, he could also defeat a spirit master which was a major rank above him. However, such great strength was not without price to pay, his advancement in ranks as a spirit master would without doubt consume more time and energy than the other spirit master. Yet with his dual spirit, he would manage to counterbalance the effect a little bit, he was just a little bit slower than the other spirit masters. He also had been practicing his inner strength since he young and would be able to liquify all of his inner strength, which was purer and denser. This would also increase his speed of cultivation.
Back to the fight with the monkey, Li Wei felt that it was just enough for a warmup and decided to end it as quickly as possible and searched for stronger soul beasts. He stepped in into the monkey's reach and threw punch packed with a strong power, and followed up another attack and another. This fight did not last long when his fist had struck the monkey's head. A white spirit ring appeared above the dead monkey, Li Wei did not pay attention to that spirit ring. It was not worth his time, even for his wings spirit, it was not worthy enough.
