Chapter 8: Challenge the Lion King!

Chen Mo naturally didn't know Lion Sister's inner turmoil; after observing Lion Sister, he began observing himself.

【African Lion (Male)】

【Level: Low Supernatural】

【Constitution: 10】

【Agility: 14】

【Strength: 10】

【Soul: 8】

【Overall Combat Power: 42~76】

"Huh, how am I a supernatural being?"

Chen Mo discovered that his level column actually showed Low Supernatural, unlike Lion Sister's Mortal Kind.

Could it be those two mysterious energies inside his body?

Chen Mo had a vague guess in his mind, and he didn't dwell on it further.

"The highs and lows of attribute values and overall combat power can intuitively reflect a creature's strength; not bad."

"My overall combat power is roughly equivalent to thirty Lion Sisters."

Chen Mo was quite satisfied with the Lion Observation ability.

Of course, he knew these attribute and overall combat power values were only for reference; real combat isn't like a card game where you just compare numbers.

When the strength gap isn't large, wisdom and willpower are more important.

After becoming familiar with the effects of Lion Observation, Chen Mo was somewhat eager to check the attribute panel of that red-maned male lion.

If it turned out to be inferior to him in every way, Chen Mo would prepare to avenge his father!

Of course, the most important thing is still the grudge over stolen food! You should know that a month ago, that male lion had robbed him of plenty of game!

These days, the fire of vengeance has been stirring in his heart.

But out of caution, he hasn't acted.

Thinking this, Chen Mo sprinted toward the green grassland.

Seeing his younger brother suddenly rise, Aisha beside him stopped pretending to sleep and closely followed.

A few days earlier, it had started following Chen Mo on hunts; although its role was minuscule, each successful hunt's sense of participation made Aisha feel unusually excited.

She and her brother went on a killing spree!

Soon, Chen Mo arrived at the familiar green grassland.

Relying on astonishing speed and strength, he easily hunted down a black-spotted antelope.

But this time, Chen Mo didn't enjoy the feast; instead, he let the bloody smell spread.

Finally, after five minutes, a familiar lion's roar came from afar.

A male lion with a red mane and sturdy build sprinted toward it.

This time, Chen Mo didn't flee; instead, he silently stared at the male lion.

Soon, Chen Mo obtained all its information.

【African Lion (Male)】

【Level (Mortal Kind)】

【Constitution: 8】

【Agility: 7】

【Strength: 8】

【Soul: 3】

【Overall Combat Power: 26~31】

This male lion's attributes were lower than Chen Mo had imagined.

Not only constitution, speed, and strength were completely dominated by present-day Chen Mo; its soul was pitifully low, even inferior to Lion Sister Aisha.

This instantly filled Chen Mo with confidence.

As it turned out, the male lion wasn't that strong after all! "Roar!"

Thus, facing the red-maned male lion's angry roar, this time he didn't choose to flee as before, but instead issued a provocative challenge to the lion.

A resonant lion's roar rang out across the grassland; although slightly immature, it already bore the beginnings of a king's bearing.

"Roar!"

Facing Chen Mo's provocation, the red-maned male lion responded with a deeper, more ferocious roar.

It was the first time it directly gazed at this familiar young lion.

Mainly because this young lion had previously run too fast, the red-maned male lion could only ever see its back.

Upon seeing it, the red-maned male lion was startled.

Unbeknownst to him, this young lion's size had actually surpassed his by a whole notch! What are these young lions eating to grow like this? Their growth rate is absurd!

After roaring a few times, the male lion stopped at a distance of over 100 meters from Chen Mo.

Knowing it couldn't catch up, it merely wanted to drive this "filthy thing" out of its territory.

Seeing the male lion not far off, unmoving, Chen Mo also froze for a moment.

He had originally planned to first anger the male lion, make it chase wildly to expend some stamina, then strike.

He hadn't expected that, knowing it couldn't catch up, the male lion would be too lazy to pursue even in the face of the provocation.

Helpless, Chen Mo could only emit a roar (trash talk) while charging proactively toward the male lion.

Seeing the large young lion dashing wildly toward him, the male lion felt surprisingly angry.

Again and again, provoking him in his territory, this young lion is simply asking for death!

The lion isn't showing its might—do you really think I'm a sick cat?

Almost without thinking, the angry male lion dashed at Chen Mo.

When the two lions were less than 3 meters apart, the male lion leapt high, aiming to knock Chen Mo down.

It pressed down using its own strength.

This is also the male lion's preferred fighting style.

However, the young lion in front of it seemed to see through its move, sidestepping flexibly to dodge the pounce, and as they brushed past, it swiped a claw at the male lion's side, leaving three long bloody marks.

After landing the hit, Chen Mo fled.

He wanted to provoke the male lion's anger, make it chase him desperately, then rely on his stamina and speed advantage to completely wear it down!

"Roar!"

The male lion let out an earth-shaking roar; it was completely enraged, its mind holding only one thought——

That is to kill the young lion before it that repeatedly challenged its dignity! Chen Mo deliberately controlled his speed, keeping the distance between himself and the male lion between 5 and 10 meters.

To the male lion, this is a distance that seems within reach.

5 minutes later.

The male lion's speed slowed.

Running at full speed consumed a large amount of its stamina.

But seeing the large young lion within reach, the male lion's dignity still made it choose to continue the chase.

After running so long, that young lion must be nearing its limit, right? But in the next instant, the young lion running ahead suddenly turned back, and as they crossed, it struck again with its claw!

The red-haired male lion hadn't even reacted before feeling the sharp claw tear its back skin again, scarlet blood silently flowing.

"Roar!"

Wrapped in unparalleled anger, the male lion lunged at Chen Mo at once.

However, contrary to the male lion's expectation, this time the young lion opposite did not choose to dodge.

But instead, like it, it leapt high, then struck straight at its head with its forepaw!

The red-haired male lion instinctively blocked with its forepaw.

The two lions collided in midair, grappling.

The male lion couldn't help but reveal a cruel smile.

In its view, this young lion was good for nothing except being a bit faster.

But the male lion was wrong!

In the next second, a huge force came from its forepaw.

The young lion's strength was actually greater than its! The red-haired male lion was flipped onto the ground, and Chen Mo mercilessly swung his claw again, aiming for the male lion's throat, eyes, and other vital spots.

Soon, a bloody gore was torn open under the red-haired male lion's throat, its face a horrible sight, already severely wounded!

But at the moment of life and death, the survival instinct let the red-haired male lion burst forth astonishing potential.

It constantly struggled to stand, then waved its forepaw, trying to seek a sliver of life.

Facing the red-haired male lion's desperate counterattack, Chen Mo's back also gained two claw marks, though not fatal.

"Roar!"

At this moment, another angry lion's roar came from not far away.

The roar earlier from the red-haired male lion naturally attracted its brothers, as well as the four lionesses of the pride.

They came upon hearing it, and immediately saw a young lion whose fur wasn't fully grown violently beating the red-haired male lion.

The lion mother felt this young lion seemed like her own child 'Little Lame', but its huge size and formidable strength made her dare not recognize it.

Seeing another male lion arrive, Chen Mo had no intention of leaving!

The battle just now aroused the bloodthirstiness and ferocity engraved in his genes and blood.

He wanted to keep fighting! He wanted to defeat both male lions completely! (End of chapter)
