Sword God in a World of Magic

The corpse vanished, and the applause returned.

The wheel began to spin.

"Level seven: Weak Mid True Path Stage beast."

At that moment, Shang took out some ore and allowed Sword to return to its Saber State while he waited for his opponent.

His Long Sword State was not very good against beasts but devastating to Mages. His Long Sword State wouldn't be very useful in the beast category.

Sword returned to its Saber State just when the new picture appeared, but Shang didn't even look at it.

SHING!

When Shang saw his next opponent, he raised an eyebrow.

'A hippo? That's a new one.'

It was a massive hippo, nearly 200 meters long and 50 meters high.

'Aren't hippos usually pretty powerful?'

But as he looked closer at the hippo with his Spirit Sense, he realized why.

Shang felt a lot of Water Mana come from it.

Shang had gained the ability to feel all kinds of Mana after he reached the True Path Stage, which was how he was able to tell that the hippo had a Water Affinity.

Water wasn't very good in one-on-one fights.

DING!

The bell rang, and Shang unleashed more Shooting Stars and Hidden Suns.

The hippo was dead within five attacks.

It didn't even take a second.

"Level eight: Average Mid True Path Stage beast."

Shang just waited.

SHING!

Eventually, a huge brown pangolin appeared in front of Shang.

'Why do I only get beasts with a lot of defense this time?' he thought.

DING!

The bell rang, and the pangolin immediately had to deal with a barrage of attacks coming at it.

It turned into a ball and summoned boulders, which it threw at the attacks while rolling around the area.

A couple of Shang's attacks hit, but its defense was powerful enough to shrug those couple of attacks off. It was similar to the tortoise from before when it came to its defense.

However, it was an average beast, not a powerful one.

Shang changed tactics and burst after it while releasing more attacks.
