The Calamity of Destruction blasted the Vampire Rat into bits. It was indeed incomparably powerful.

However, it was precisely because he had blasted the entire Vampire Rat into bits.

Even the magical crystals in the brain of the magical beast were gone.

All the magical beasts, regardless of their level, had a magic crystal in their brains.

This magical crystal contained energy.

It was very useful for mages.

Not only could it help mages cultivate, but it could also restore their spiritual energy.

It goes without saying that the higher the level of the magical beast, the more energy the magical crystal contained.

The adult Vampire Rat that Karl killed was only Level One.

Its magical crystal didn't contain much energy, but it could still help him recover some of his spiritual energy

Hence.

Hence, Karl decided to not use the Calamity of Destruction in the following battles unless it was absolutely necessary.

…

In the distance.

Rimon hid in the dense leaves of a towering tree. He had personally witnessed the Vampire Rat being blasted into bits.

Previously, in the city, Karl had brushed past him but paid him no heed.

This made Rimon extremely furious.

Thus, after Karl left the city, Rimon also left the city and secretly followed behind Karl.

Of course, he was tailing him very discreetly.

He made sure to stay a distance away from Karl.

With Karl's current spiritual power, he could not detect him if he was so far away.

So Karl hadn't noticed him.

When Karl encountered a Vampire Rat, Rimon was very excited.

In his opinion, the Vampire Rat was not easy to deal with.

Even if Karl could kill it, it would definitely require a lot of spiritual energy.

When the time came, he would kill Karl while he was weak.

Anyway, the feud between the two had been going on for a long time.

Karl's magical talent was strong, Rimon would not give up unless he killed Karl.

Moreover, this was the wilderness. After Karl died here, he would be eaten up by magical beasts and there would be no trace of him left.

Who would find out that he was the one who did it?

However, to his surprise, Karl had blasted the Vampire Rat into bits.

He was shocked beyond words.

It was beyond his comprehension that a one-star mage had the ability to blast a magical beast into bits with just one blow.

He knew that lightning magic was the strongest attack magic among all the magic spells.

However, no matter how strong a person was, there had to be a limit, right?

He had blasted a Level One magical beast into bits. Was Karl a monster?

Naturally, Karl was not a monster. That meant that he was using a skill.

Although Rimon did not know the level of Karl's skill, he could feel that the magic skill Karl possessed was definitely of a high level.

He had heard about it earlier.

Today, four teachers from the four major magic academies of the empire came to the school to recruit students.

And Karl had already been recruited. So was the skill he possessed given to him by the teacher who recruited him?

Thinking of this, Karl was furious.

Why? Why did Karl have such high level magical talent, such that the four major magic academies all wanted to recruit him?

But he did not?

The intense jealousy made Rimon's eyes turn red. He became even more determined to kill Karl.

At this moment, he realized that Karl had moved deeper into the woods.

Rimon followed quietly.

Soon, a smile appeared on Rimon's face.

This time, Karl had encountered a group of magical beasts.

…

He looked at the magical beast in front of him.

"An adult Gale Wolf, a Level One magical beast. Pack animals. They are violent and agile."

The Gale Wolf looked majestic. Its entire body was black, and its two sharp teeth were like sharp swords that could pierce through rocks.

Moreover, its claws were extremely sharp, as if they could tear people apart.

"A pack of magical beasts."

Karl did not act rashly when he saw the Gale Wolf.

This was because the Gale Wolf was a type of magical beast that lived in groups. It would generally not act alone.

Karl sent his spiritual energy out to the surrounding area.

Sure enough, there were four Gale Wolves hidden deep within the surrounding shrubbery.

The four Gale Wolves crouched and were ready to attack.

"Roar!"

Just as Karl sent his spiritual energy out, the Gale Wolf in front of him moved.

It pushed off its hind legs and pounced. Its huge body moved as fast as a bolt of lightning, smashing the trees and shrubs that were in between them into pieces.

At this, a bolt of lightning appeared in Karl's palm.

When the wolf was less than three meters away from him, a bolt of lightning shot out from his palm and struck the Gale Wolf's body.

With the help of his magic, he levitated and moved ten meters back.

At this moment.

Swoosh!

The Gale Wolf that was lying in ambush behind him moved. It leaped up and a huge shadow fell upon Karl.

It lunged at Karl and tried to rip him apart with its sharp claws.

However, Karl easily dodged the attack.

He floated up to a height of ten meters.

Two bolts of lightning shot out from his hands.

The two bolts of lightning did not disappear in a flash. Instead, they became Karl's whips, striking the Gale Wolf's body.

"Roar!"

The Gale Wolf howled. Two long bloody marks appeared on its body where the lightning struck.

Its skin and flesh split apart. The cuts were so deep they cut through the bones, exposing the marrow. There was also a burnt smell.

After being attacked, the Gale Wolf's eyes glowed more fiercely than before.

It stared at Karl, who was levitating in the air with his magic.

It wanted to launch another attack.

However, before it could do anything, Karl had already sent out another bolt of lightning.

The Gale Wolf watched in horror.

The lightning struck its head.

Crack.

The sound of a skull cracking could be heard. In the next moment, the massive body of the Gale Wolf collapsed to the ground.

A cloud of dust flew up.

The Gale Wolf's limbs twitched a few times before it stopped moving.

Karl had levitated and struck the Gale wolf thrice in just the blink of an eye.

All these happened so quickly the other Gale Wolves did not even have a chance to react.

"Roar!"

When it saw its companion dead, the eyes of the Gale Wolf which had attacked Karl earlier turned crimson.

Karl knew that the Gale Wolf had gone mad.

The Gale Wolf was already a magical beast with a violent temperament. Now that it had gone berserk, it would definitely become even more ferocious.

Huff!

The Gale Wolf leaped up and pounced towards Karl.

At the same time, the other three Gale Wolves lying in ambush around him also leaped up and pounced towards Karl.
