As Jin Mo saw the wolf-like beast, he used Soul Perception on it.

Jin Mo: "Yeah."
Jin Mo approached the wolf. It noticed him instantly, ears perked up as it shifted into a defensive stance. The beast was clearly both scared and hostile, baring its fangs and growling lowly. Locking eyes with it, Jin Mo slowly unsheathed his sword. The moment his blade flashed in the light, he moved.
A single, clean slash.
Before the wolf could react, it was already dead.

His father nodded in approval. "Well done."
However, the scent of blood quickly attracted more danger. The rustling of bushes signaled the arrival of three more Dire Wolves, each snarling as they spotted Jin Mo standing over their fallen kin.
His father crossed his arms, watching intently. "This is your real test. Kill them, and I will acknowledge your strength."
Jin Mo smirked, gripping his sword tightly. "Too easy."
The three Dire Wolves lunged at him.
With lightning-fast reflexes, he sidestepped the first, slashing through its neck in one clean motion. Blood sprayed as the beast crumpled instantly.
The remaining two grew cautious, now circling him instead of charging blindly. Their intelligence was still low, but instinct told them he was dangerous. They attacked in unison—one from the left, the other from behind.
Jin Mo's eyes gleamed. He pivoted, parrying the left wolf's bite with his sword hilt while spinning mid-air. In the same motion, he brought his blade down on the second wolf's back, cutting deep. With a final thrust, he pierced its heart.
The last wolf hesitated. Unlike the others, it was slightly stronger—its eyes held a glimmer of cunning. Then, before dying, it howled loudly, its voice echoing through the jungle.
A single moment later, its body fell limp as Jin Mo drove his sword through its skull.

His father watched silently, his expression unreadable. After a long pause, he spoke.
"...Impressive."
Despite being only four years old, and without any visible cultivation, Jin Mo had dispatched the wolves effortlessly. His father couldn't believe it.
Jin Mo, however, merely wiped the blood from his blade.
He had only shown a fraction of his strength.
