Chapter Thirty-Five: This Is a Test for Him as Well!

At this moment, Qin Feng gazed calmly ahead. He knew the wolf pack was still nearby, and he had to adjust himself to reach his optimal state. Only then could he fight the wolves effectively. He understood that wolves were fierce creatures; although he had managed to scare them off, they would not give up so easily. There was a high chance they would launch another attack.

He was well aware of the wolves’ intelligence. No one could say for certain whether they had truly retreated. It was possible this was merely a feigned withdrawal—a tactic as ancient as warfare itself, and wolves were clever enough to use it. Qin Feng reminded himself to stay vigilant; only by doing so could he survive.

Survival was his only path to completing the jungle survival assessment, and only then would he have a chance to become a special forces soldier. Becoming a special forces soldier was his dream, and he would not let the wolf pack bring him down.

The wolves, for their part, did not dare attack recklessly. They sensed Qin Feng’s formidable fighting prowess, which far surpassed that of ordinary men and was even stronger than the fiercest creatures they had encountered in the jungle. He appeared terrifying.

They could not understand why this upright-walking creature possessed such power, yet they seemed to sense the resolve emanating from Qin Feng—the conviction to win.

Fear gripped them; they trembled, ready to retreat at any moment.

“Ah-ha!” Suddenly, Qin Feng let out a loud shout, thrusting his combat knife forward. Under the night’s shadow, the blade gleamed with a chilling light, sharp enough to slice through anything. At the same time, murderous intent radiated from him, as if he stood within an ancient ice cavern—cold and forbidding.

The wolves felt the intense murderous aura from Qin Feng, and their hearts quaked with terror. With no will to fight, they turned and fled, afraid to linger, worried that his combat knife might sever their throats. This was a creature with terrifying combat strength.

“Awooo~” Just then, from behind the retreating pack, a wolf’s howl rang out—wild, arrogant, and exuding the aura of a king, a frightening presence.

Qin Feng quickly looked over and saw, at the rear of the pack, the largest white wolf standing tall like a monarch. Its aura was formidable, its fur snow-white, its body robust as a bull. It raised its head and howled, its gaze icy and disdainful—a king surveying his domain.

It was the Wolf King.

“Wolf King... I never expected there would be a Wolf King here.”

Staring at the Wolf King, Qin Feng swiftly considered his options. He knew the Wolf King was powerful—the ruler of the jungle and not easily dealt with. Were it any other circumstance, he would not hesitate to turn and run. But now, retreat was impossible. He had killed wolves, and the Wolf King would not let him go. It would lead the pack in battle against him. If he ran, the wolves’ morale would soar and they would swarm him; he would not be able to fend off enemies from all sides and might be torn apart alive.

“In that case, let’s fight. Let’s see who falls first.” Qin Feng stared into the Wolf King’s eyes, his own shining with fierce determination. “Wolf King, is it? Let me see how strong your pack is under your command. I will destroy the wolves, and ultimately, you and I will have our battle.”

Qin Feng knew that now the situation between himself and the wolves was one of life and death, with only one side able to survive. He told himself he must live, holding fast to the conviction in his heart, determined to fight through.

The wolves who had just been about to flee heard the Wolf King’s howl and immediately turned around, howling in unison. Their spirits were rekindled, their morale seemed to rise, their eyes cold and fierce, brimming with battle energy. Their bloodlust ignited rapidly as they fixed their cold gaze on Qin Feng, baring sharp fangs that gleamed chillingly in the night.

“Awooo!” The Wolf King howled again—an order to attack. Instantly, every wolf took off, howling as they charged forward, launching a swift assault against Qin Feng, as if intent on tearing him to pieces.

Meanwhile, in the satellite monitoring room of the Xiongtiger Special Operations Battalion—

“I never imagined there would be a Wolf King in this training jungle. This place is clearly more complicated than it seems.” The battalion commander watched the monitor, his expression grave. He saw that Qin Feng was in unprecedented danger and hoped he would pull through. Every soldier was precious; he did not want any accidents.

“That kid is in danger—that’s the Wolf King. Even I might not be able to defeat the Wolf King. It’s been many years since one appeared; last time was ten years ago, according to our predecessors. We thought the Wolf King had vanished, but now it’s resurfaced. This jungle is dangerous. We’ll see if we can deal with this threat.”

The lieutenant sensed that Qin Feng’s situation was extremely perilous. The Wolf King’s fighting power was immense, and with the pack under its command, their strength was even greater. Even he would have no choice but to flee if faced with the Wolf King’s pack. It was no laughing matter—the Wolf King was a terrifying creature, and its pack could even contend with tigers.

“The wolves are dangerous. We’ll need to clear them out at some point. This is a training jungle—such creatures cannot be allowed to remain. Otherwise, soldiers will be at risk during exercises.” The battalion commander’s voice was stern, his expression tense. “When will the rescue helicopter arrive? I hope he’s okay.”

He did not want anything to happen to Qin Feng; otherwise, no one would dare participate in the special forces selection next time.

“It’ll take ten minutes—at least ten minutes.” The soldier monitoring Qin Feng replied, worry etched across his face, cold sweat breaking on his brow. He sensed that Qin Feng’s situation was dire; odds were grim.

“The wolves are fierce, the Wolf King is terrifying. If he manages to defeat them and kill the Wolf King, he’ll be able to pass the jungle survival assessment. It’s a test of his ability.”

The battalion commander spoke, his eyes calm. He knew Qin Feng was in great danger, but if he overcame this ordeal, he would survive and complete the assessment, becoming stronger. That was exactly the kind of elite the Xiongtiger Special Operations Battalion needed. Without strength, survival on the battlefield would be impossible. As the battalion commander, he was responsible for every special forces candidate selected.
