Chapitre 49: Chapter 8: Battle with the Bear

```

Before the arrival of winter each year, the blind bears would become unusually active, taking advantage of any food that came into their sight. Wang Anfeng had known this since he was young, but even in the stories meant to scare children, he had never heard of such a robust giant beast.

When it stood on all fours, it was already a head taller than Wang Anfeng. As it roared with its head held high, a foul stench mixed with the smell of blood rushed towards him. Its greedy eyes fixed on the youth as muscles bulged under its fur. Suddenly, the beast pounced, and Wang Anfeng's pupils contracted as he altered his footing. The bear's claw grazed his clothes as his right fist, taking advantage of the opening, smashed into the bear's abdomen.
