Two weeks had passed since Li Wei and his team retreated to the outskirts of the Endless Forest, opting to hunt Grade 2 beasts. Though far less challenging than the beast they had faced previously, these lower-level creatures served a purpose. Here, they could build their skills and endurance with minimal interference from him. Li Wei had taken a backseat, observing their progress from a distance, intervening only when the situation turned dire.
His teammates, however, were anything but complacent. Every encounter felt like a battle against themselves, a struggle to claw closer to his level.
