BXBX NOVEL Chapter 322: Encounter With The Other Examinees [1]
At that moment, he stepped forward, and a low growl rippled through the horde, and suddenly —
Growl! Howl!
All the wolves pounced forward at once like a tsunami. Their blue eyes were filled with bloodthirstiness and savageness. Dozens, no, hundreds, closed the distance in the blink of an eye towards the enemies.
Seeing the sharp fangs that gleamed dangerously, Nox didn\'t flinch. The reason for this was because a majority of the beasts here were only at the intermediate tier, while a handful was at the early stages of King-tier. Intermediate-tier and beginning-stage King-tier beasts were naturally not a threat!
With a wide grin on his handsome face, Nox called out in a loud, powerful voice: "[Barbarian Strength] — Activate!"
A golden light surged around his body like a roaring flame, and the earth beneath him trembled. Nox bulged slightly, his being glowing faintly as raw power coursed through his body.
With his midnight eyes burning with a terrifying radiance, Nox charged forward. The ground where he previously stood collapsed, forming a crater over three meters deep.
The first wolf in Nox\'s trajectory opened its jaws wide to tear into his skin, but before it could reach him—
BOOOM!
Nox\'s fist smashed into the beast with the force of a thunderbolt, pulverizing it in an instant. The only thing left behind was the blue glowing beast core. Nox\'s eyes widened in shock.
He knew the Barbarian Strength was powerful, but to easily pulverize a peak intermediate-tier beast with one attack was something he had never imagined. It seemed he had greatly underestimated the effect of his talent.
All of Nox\'s thoughts had happened in a millisecond. Another wolf pounced at his side, but Nox spun and delivered a powerful backhand. The unfortunate creature flew unnaturally as it soared into the sky before disappearing into the dust-filled mist above.
"This--!" Nox wasn\'t the only one who was shocked. The rest of the wolf pack hesitated as well, their glowing blue eyes filled with great confusion. What was happening? Why was the human so powerful?
Several thoughts flashed through their minds in an instant, and they didn\'t dare underestimate the human again. Because of the absence of their Alpha, they were disorganized and attacking solely by listening to their instincts. But in the presence of such a terrifying existence, they were beginning to seriously reconsider their next steps.
They began to circle Nox, and seeing this, Nox couldn\'t resist the urge to taunt them. "Tsk, don\'t tell me you guys are scared already? Your Alpha must be rolling in his grave in shame if this is all you\'ve got to show."
Nox\'s words stung, and the cautiousness in their eyes disappeared. This time, dozens swarmed in from all sides as they all attacked from every angle. Although their Alpha was no more, the wolves were naturally intelligent. They knew it would be difficult for anyone to survive an all-side attack such as this unscathed.
BOOOM!
Planting his foot forward with a deep thud, the ground cracked beneath Nox as he lunged at the beasts in front of him. Nox was like an unstoppable hurricane as he tore through them mercilessly, disintegrating them in a shower of black embers.
BANG! BANG! BANG! BANG! BANGGG! BANGGG!
A single punch obliterated three wolves at once. Then, he grabbed another by the throat and hurled it into its brethren, sending them tumbling. If one punch wasn\'t able to do the deed, then definitely the following one would.
Swoosh!
When a group tried to flank him from behind, Nox leaped into the air like an arrow shot from a bowstring. As his body soared through the air, he brought both fists together mid-air and plunged down with explosive force, feeling the rush of wind in the air.
GROWL! GROWL!
The wolves glared at the descending enemy with a ravenous glint in their eyes. Their fangs were exposed to tear the enemies apart.
"Heh." That split second before he hit the ground, Nox smirked as both of his fists came crashing down like a falling mountain.
BOOOM!
A devastating shockwave erupted from the impact, flattening everything in a twenty-meter radius. The trees on this side snapped, and the ground cracked. Countless boulders were sent flying into the air.

In the academy, the instructors didn\'t peel their eyes from the screen, their mouths hanging open. The battle was bloody, yet there was something fascinating about it, as if they\'d never get bored of watching.
"Still think Theo or Kali is the strongest in this bunch?" Bridget said sweetly as she looked at Boris Fanum and Brawn Collins, who were all staring at the magical screen with trembling eyes. But because they were too entranced with the fight, her words faded into the background.
"What sort of monster is this? Obliterating a beast with a single attack? Yes, the feat was possible for high-level Awakened above level sixty with a sufficient amount of strength stats. So how was this kid in the level twenties able to pull off something similar? Does he have a hidden artifact that boosted his strength or what?"
The more questions that popped up in their heads, the more difficult it was to understand.
Inside the dimension, just like that, Nox had dealt with all the beasts that had attacked him. The few survivors, after seeing that the enemy was a demon in human skin, scrambled to their feet and, with fear-filled eyes, attempted to flee.
Of course, Nox didn\'t intend on letting his precious experience points escape and immediately charged forward. But just as he covered some distance, he narrowed his eyes as he sensed the presence of several examinees pouring out from the direction he was charging toward.
