I Truly Have Average Talents - Chapter 12

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Under the bright and clear moonlight, a figure was rapidly chasing another figure.

At this moment, the person in front stopped in her tracks. Although one could not see the person’s exact appearance, she was dressed in a flawless white robe. Her long black hair fluttered in the wind, but her temperament was otherworldly.

“Lin Shensheng, if you continue chasing me, I won’t be polite anymore.” The white-robed man shouted.

Lin Shensheng, who was wielding a three-foot-long sword, stopped in her tracks when she heard that.

“Are you being rude to me? Do you think you’re worthy?”

As soon as Lin Shensheng finished speaking, a thought flashed through her mind and her figure swiftly moved forward. The sword in her hand drew an arc and suddenly transformed into countless sword flowers that covered the sky like a golden rain of flowers in the dark night. Then, they enveloped the white clothed man.

“Holy f*ck, are you for real?!” The man was so shocked that he let out a loud cry. He no longer had that otherworldly aura.

The white-clothed man knew that his strength was not comparable to Lin Shensheng’s and he could not block the Lin Family’s sword art. Thus, he quickly shifted his body to avoid the incoming sword rain.

Fortunately, the white-robed man’s movement technique was exceptional. Seeing that the situation was not good, he broke into a run again.

“Li Dabao, stop right there.”

“Bah, my name is Li Muyuan. You can fight me, but don’t humiliate me. If you call me by my nickname again, I’ll fight it out with you.”

“You can try.”

Then, the two figures started chasing each other in the forest again.

…

It was already late at night, and it was getting late after the martial arts exam training began. Soon, the sky gradually turned dark.

At this moment, Liu Chuan and Lin Sisi were in a team of 11 people. At that time, Liu Chuan and Lin Sisi had just stepped out of the base and were thinking about what to do next when they saw a man with an aquiline nose walk forward.

“Hello, I’m Li Yang from Changchun High School. I’ll get straight to the point. Are you interested in forming a team with me?” Li Yang asked sincerely.

Liu Chuan had some impression of Li Yang. Back at the base, Liu Chuan had seen him trying to rope in people.

Although he spoke eloquently, those geniuses were all proud and arrogant. Thus, not many people responded to him. When he saw Liu Chuan and Lin Sisi come out, he wanted to give it a try.

Liu Chuan and Lin Sisi discussed for a while before agreeing. Although Liu Chuan was still confident in his current strength, he didn’t know what accidents would happen in the wild. Thus, it was better to have more people to take care of him.

At this moment, a group of 11 people was gathered around a small fire, discussing something. It was early summer now, and the weather was just right. It was neither hot nor cold.

The fire was only for illumination. Of course, it could also prevent attacks from wild beasts.

Liu Chuan knew the other nine people. Other than Lin Sisi, there was another girl called Wu Zhixin. Her name was nice to hear and she was pretty cute. She was just a little chubby.

Ever since she opened her backpack during dinner and took out a bunch of snacks that she had brought, Liu Chuan also understood why Wu Zhixin was a little chubby. It truly came from her diet.

As for the others, one of them was small and skinny. He also called himself Monkey. Meanwhile, the other two were twins. One was called Qi Xiu and the other was called Qi Zhi.

There were also three other people who had carefree personalities. Although they did not come from the same school, they had already started to address each other as brothers. All three of them felt a little cheap.

Only the person who came with Li Yang had an unapproachable look and didn’t say anything. He just leaned against a small tree and closed his eyes to rest.

In the end, everyone only knew that his name was Lei Bin.

“I think we should still choose a captain to command the group. I’m not very talented, but I have some fame in Changchun High, so I would like to recommend myself as the team leader.” At this moment, Li Yang pushed the glasses on his hooked nose and spoke.

Monkey said casually, “It doesn’t matter to me.”

“The three of us have no objections either.” The eldest of the three brothers, Gong Wei, spoke.

Seeing that more than half of them had agreed, Li Yang glanced at Liu Chuan and Lin Sisi.

“I choose Liu Chuan.”

Without thinking, Lin Si chose Liu Chuan.

Upon hearing Lin Sisi’s words, Liu Chuan and Li Yang were stunned. Liu Chuan really didn’t expect Lin Sisi to choose him.

However, Liu Chuan had no intention of becoming the team leader. He smiled at Li Yang, who looked a little embarrassed, and said, “Then I’ll choose Li Yang. I have no intention of becoming the team leader.”

When Li Yang saw this, a trace of joy flashed across his face. He cupped his hands and thanked Liu Chuan.

When the rest of the people saw this, they all agreed. Lin Sisi saw that Liu Chuan had no intention of becoming the team leader, so she stopped talking.

Everyone formed a temporary team. Actually, there was no benefit in being the team leader. However, there were always people who wanted to stand at the top.

“It’s already so late tonight. I suggest that everyone should rest early. The nine boys will be on guard for an hour each. That way, we will be able to keep watch until dawn.” At this moment, Li Yang was satisfied and suggested for everyone to rest.

After arranging the order of the night watch, everyone lay down on the ground. They were not particular about where they slept in this wilderness.

Monkey was the first to keep watch, while Liu Chuan was the second. Liu Chuan did not plan on sleeping and began cultivating on the spot.

Monkey had a hyperactive personality and could not stand loneliness. Seeing that Liu Chuan was not asleep, he came over.

“Liu Chuan, aren’t you going to sleep,” whispered Monkey.

Liu Chuan opened his eyes and looked at Monkey. “It’s my turn to keep watch later, so I’m not planning on sleeping.”

Monkey was a chatterbox. He would ask Liu Chuan how strong his physique was and about his relationship with Lin Sisi.

Liu Chuan was also helpless. He wanted to cultivate a little more, but with such a clown around, he couldn’t calm down.

“I can’t take it anymore. My stomach feels a little uncomfortable. I’ll go to the side to relieve myself.” As he said that, Monkey suddenly felt anxious and wanted to go to an uninhabited area to resolve his physiological problems.

“Be careful, be careful.”

“I will. Don’t worry.”

…

Fifteen minutes later, when Liu Chuan saw that Monkey had not returned, he frowned slightly. It had been a while.

Liu Chuan immediately felt that the situation was not good. He wanted to take a look.

He took out a torch from the fire and used it to illuminate the area. Liu Chuan was not far away. After calling out to Monkey a few times, there was silence. No one responded.

“Oh no, something happened to Monkey.”

Liu Chuan hurriedly returned to everyone’s resting area and woke them up. Monkey was gone.

When everyone heard the news, they instantly sobered up.

As the team leader, Li Yang was about to say something when he heard Wu Zhixin say, “Look, what’s that?”

Everyone looked in the direction that Wu Zhixin was pointing at and saw a sharp gaze coming from a bush not far away. A figure walked out from the bush that was half the height of a person.

It was a lone wolf.

“Not good! It’s a mutated beast, a Gale Wolf!”

The fur of the Gale Wolves was light blue in color, and their bodies were huge. They were three times larger than ordinary tigers.

“Aowu, aowu!!!”

The Gale Wolf suddenly let out two frightening howls.

The Gale Wolf’s hind legs bent slightly, and its strong front legs slowly extended forward. Then, its sharp claws sank into the ground.

The Gale Wolf’s saw-like fangs suddenly appeared, and its two huge front teeth actually reached its lower jaw.

Just like that, a mutated beast stood in front of everyone. Its tusks were dripping with viscous saliva that seemed to be dripping onto everyone’s hearts.

This mutated beast was like a demon!

“Run, run!”

Li Yang’s voice was trembling. However, his legs could not help but tremble, preventing him from taking a step forward.

The others were also greatly shocked, their hearts already full of fear.

As expected, the flowers in the greenhouse were as fragile as a piece of paper.

“What trash. Did a Rank-F demon beast scare you so much?” Lei Bin, who had been silent all this while, suddenly spoke.

Before Lei Bin could say anything else, a strong gust of wind blew past. It was the Gale Wolf that had taken advantage of Lei Bin’s distraction to attack. Its speed was as fast as lightning.

In the midst of the crisis, golden lightning sparks flashed all over Lei Bin’s body as he threw a punch at the incoming claw of the Gale Wolf.

Boom!

A figure flew out and landed heavily on the ground.

Lei Bin, who had been extremely conceited earlier, was actually no match for this Gale Wolf.

Lei Bin struggled to get up, but one of his arms was hanging limply by his side. He was already crippled.

After all, he had yet to become a martial artist. Although he had awakened a Thunder-type ability, the difference in physical quality was still too great.

“Bastard, damn it!”

Lei Bin’s face was filled with unwillingness. He was too arrogant, and had actually lost the initiative by a wolf’s sneak attack.

However, the Gale Wolf wasn’t having a good time either. The golden lightning on Lei Bin’s body was extremely powerful, and all the fur on the Gale Wolf’s body was charred black by the lightning. A shrill cry that sounded like a ghost resounded.

However, in the end, they were just a bunch of mobs. No one took the opportunity to attack.

The Gale Wolf’s recovery ability was astonishing. In the blink of an eye, the Gale Wolf recovered, and its face became even more sinister and terrifying.

Everyone felt despair.

“I’ll do it.”

At this moment, Liu Chuan’s voice sounded.

“Come out, Wolf King..”
