23 Thunderbolt Forest:

After 20 days of continuous absorption of E-Class potions, Xiao Yang had finally reached C-Class.

'I should hunt some wild beasts' During his 20 days of seclusion, Xiao Yang had been relying upon nutrition fluids, they were enough to keep him alive and healthy, but it didn't help with the feeling that his stomach was still empty.

The next morning, Xiao Yang went to the Thunderbolt Forest, Qian Xian had managed to find a new job as a sales assistant and so she didn't accompany him to the forest.

With Xiao Yang's student badge, he was able to enter the Student-Exclusive section, this section is heavily controlled with array to prevent any high-class elemental beasts from being mixed with low-class elemental beasts.

The B-Class section is the highest level an outer-disciple is allowed to enter, Qian Xian told him not to go to any section that is higher than D-Class, but Xiao Yang ignored her warning and entered the B-Class section.

With his martial techniques and thousands of years of experience, he believed that he could easily kill the B-Class beasts. Plus, he still requires more high-quality resources to support his growth, even if there weren't any matching element beasts, he could easily sell it off and use the money to buy potions.

"First, I will have to fill up my stomach." Xiao Yang started hopping across the tall trees, in search of a small elemental beast that he could easily roast.

Not long after he was able to hunt down an elemental boar-like beast. The boar was able to wield the power of lightning but with Xiao Yang's sneak skills, he was able to easily kill it without it ever even knowing how it died.

The beast was a B-Class, so he managed to receive a B-Class Lighting Elemental Core.

Xiao Yang quickly started a fire and cut out the beast into small miniature-sized cubes, the meat was then impaled onto a skewer and carefully seasoned.

As the meat gets roasted above the fire, a sweet aroma hovered across Xiao Yang's nose, "Mhhm... It's just like the old days."

The bit into the meat and the juice instantly melt into his mouth, he may have been over 8000 years old, but the way he eats looked more like a wild child, pieces of meat and seasonings covered his face.

"Could it be because I'm reincarnated in someone else body, why do I think it tastes better than the one the old days?" he asked out loud.

As he continued to devour the meat, Xiao Yang was suddenly alerted by a powerful aura in the vicinity. "Why is there an A-Class beast in this area? Wait... There is also a C-Class mage fighting it."

Xiao Yang was able to easily decipher whether an aura was coming from a beast or a human. "It seems like the mage is in trouble. I'm full anyway so I should go and check it out."

Xiao Yang dashed across the trees again and followed where the aura was coming from. Not long after he found a mage struggling to defend himself from the A-Class beast.

The mage hasn't been injured so far, but he will soon run out of energy and collapse from fatigue. He had long black hair, snow-white skins, and a white garment, he looks just like your stereotypical scholar.

The beast was a giant mammoth, but it wields the power of Stone-Body which allows it to transform its whole outer body into stone, apart from the eyes.

The mage had an A-Class elemental sword, but his martial skills were not strong enough to defeat the beast, all he could do was to keep knocking the beast away by its horns.

The mage seemed to have detected Xiao Yang's present and so he shouted, "Friend, please kindly help me defeat this beast!"

Xiao Yang was still standing on top of a tree trunk, he shouted back, "Then how would you suggest splitting the loot?"

The mage casually replied, "You can keep all of it."

"Alright, but do keep your promise." Xiao Yang jumped off the tree and managed to land on the back of the giant mammoth.

The giant mammoth realizing that Xiao Yang was on his back, it quickly spun around in circles and slamming itself against the trees to try to get rid of him, but none managed to get rid of him.

Xiao Yang was holding tightly on one of its ears and with his elemental ring in hand, he summoned his C-Class King Tier Wolf Blade.

Xiao Yang quickly jab the blade into one of its eyes and managed to damage the brain of the giant mammoth, blue bloods started to flow out of it like a river.

The mammoth tried closing its eyes to trap the sword but Xiao Yan was quick enough to pull it out. The beast tried to run away while closing both of its eyes, but it didn't last long as its blood quickly drains away and it's mana dramatically dropped to zero.

Without any mana left, the beast couldn't activate his Stone-Body. Xiao Yang took this opportunity and stabbed the sword right on top of its head and managed to penetrate right inside the brain.

"Roar!"

The beast cried out with all its energy before it quickly collapses to the ground. 'Boom!'

"A-Class Stone Mammoth Killed: Elemental Core Available"

Xiao Yang was delighted, the price of an A-Class Elemental Beast would be at least 5 A-Class Elemental Coins.

"Are you going to keep your promise?" Xiao Yang looked at the mage.

"Of course" The mage didn't hesitate to respond.

From the mage's elemental class and gears, Xiao Yang believed that the man is from a very rich and prestigious family. To be able to get to C-Class at such a short amount of time prove how talented he is.
