Fate Reignites: My Rampage in a World Where Time Stops-Chapter 99 Ji Huai’s Persistence! (April added - for 1150 Monthly Tickets)

"Almost reached Level 21?!"

Hearing Fan Gang's words, Lan Cheng's expression changed once again.

In the Dream World, there was a scanning panel that could instantly determine the rank of Spiritual Beasts, but Demon Beasts were different—their levels needed to be assessed through devices.

The ten Advanced Demon Beasts they had encountered before were all evaluated.

But this Demon Cat had not been evaluated, and even until today, Lan Cheng had no idea that such an Advanced Demon Beast existed.

Therefore, he had tentatively rated the Demon Cat's strength at Level 20.

He thought he had already overestimated its power, but he never expected that this Demon Cat could be even stronger.

Level 21 represented the strength equivalent to an Elite Rank Spiritual Beast.

Even if the Demon Cat hadn't fully reached it, it was still quite dangerous.

In the image, Qin Chuan reappeared and stood at a distance, confronting the Demon Cat that had also become visible. Both parties cautiously refrained from making any further moves, which gave Lan Cheng some time.

"Can its strength be confirmed?" Lan Cheng had already picked up the Communication Device as he once again sought confirmation from Fan Gang.

The answer to this question would determine whether he should forcibly interrupt Qin Chuan's assessment, prompting the surrounding rescue personnel to take action.

And if the assessment were interrupted, Qin Chuan's results would inevitably be affected.

Though, after the last assessment, the impact of interrupting the assessment had been reduced significantly, a 10% reduction of kill points would be enough to make Qin Chuan drop out of the top three.

"There's no problem with what Fan Gang said," Zhou Xiaoyu spoke with a serious tone.

Yan University's biology had been stronger than Huaqing even before the Extraordinary Descent, and after the appearance of Demon Beasts, their research had never ceased.

Zhou Xiaoyu, an observer from Yan University, had noticed something unusual about the Demon Cat just as quickly as Fan Gang had—she had just been preempted by him.

Seeing the observers from both universities concur with the same assessment, Lan Cheng no longer hesitated and prepared to interrupt the assessment by picking up the Communication Device.

A hand reached out and grabbed his wrist.

"Wait a bit longer," Ji Huai's calm voice resounded at this moment.

"Ji Huai!" Lan Cheng's voice suddenly rose, "Fine at other times, but what mess are you causing now?!"

"He's my student," Ji Huai's voice remained steady as ever, "I am clearer about his abilities than anyone else."

"So, wait a bit longer."

"You..." Lan Cheng glared at Ji Huai, "Do you realize that once he..."

"Look at his eyes," Ji Huai interrupted Lan Cheng, pointing to the screen at Qin Chuan, "Do you see a trace of fear in his eyes?"

"I..." Lan Cheng clutched the Communication Device tightly, "But his safety..."

"The Demon Beast hasn't reached Level 21 yet, what's to panic?" Ji Huai pushed open the conference room door, leaving behind a supremely calm statement echoing in the room.

"I am not a rescue personnel."

"Always trying to play the hero!" Watching Ji Huai disappear outside the conference room door, Lan Cheng cursed under his breath but felt significantly more at ease in his heart.

After all, this show-off had slain a Level 23 Demon Beast not long ago.

He turned his gaze back to Qin Chuan on the screen, his heart involuntarily tightening.

Even if you can't overcome, you must hold on until Ji Huai arrives...

-----------------

"Long time no see."

Standing with a long blade in hand and confronting the black Demon Cat with a fierce form, sharp bone spurs on its back and limbs, Qin Chuan's eyes held a touch of surprise.

He had not expected to have an opportunity to see it again.

And...

The strength of this Demon Cat was somewhat surprising to him.

The previous demon bear, towering over ten meters, appeared terrifying but hadn't given Qin Chuan a significant sense of danger.

But the black demon cat was different. It was only two meters long, yet Qin Chuan felt a considerable threat.

This was an opponent much stronger than a Growth Rank demon bear.

At this moment, Qin Chuan didn't know that the demon cat was not amongst the ten Advanced Rank demon beasts, nor did he know its power had surpassed the usual Level 20 demon beasts, and was about to reach Level 21—after all, he had not encountered many demon beasts.

Glancing at the remaining time, Qin Chuan tightened his grip on the Ice Blade in his hand, with only one thought in mind.

If I take this guy down, I'll secure my first place, right?

"Kill—"

With a low shout, Qin Chuan took the initiative to attack the black demon cat.

Frost Cold, unleashed with full force, formed a frost path on the ground alongside his charge. The Ice Blade, enveloped in extreme cold, shrouded in a layer of hazy frost, shed its frosty veil at the moment of slashing to reveal its sunlit, chillingly cold blade.

The icy gleam of the blade flared out, horizontally slashing at the black demon cat. Before even making contact, the piercing chill already covered the demon cat's body in a thin layer of frost.

The black demon cat bared its fangs, letting out a hoarse roar before its figure instantly vanished from the spot, turning into a streak of black light too fast for Qin Chuan to see. It leaped over ten meters in an instant and then pounced straight at Qin Chuan.

So fast!

A shock surged through Qin Chuan's mind.

Although he had seen a hint of the other's sneak attack speed earlier, the black demon cat's velocity was even more astonishing now.

Could a demon beast comparable to a Growth Rank Spiritual Beast really possess such strength?

With no time to ponder, a shallow blue glow quietly spread across the depths of Qin Chuan's eyes.

This was another use of the Water Master's power—Water Vision.

By sensing water movements, one could detect all aquatic activities in their surroundings.

Any creature with water in its body could not escape the observation of Water Vision.

Qin Chuan's piercing strike to the heart of the Advanced Rank demon bear had relied on the precise positioning of Water Vision.

Now, the black demon cat would be no exception.

In just an instant, the previously untrackable figure became much clearer, and though the speed was still astonishing, Qin Chuan was now able to respond.

Frost Cold continued to run at full power, further dropping the temperature in the vicinity. The thickening mist made Qin Chuan's body contour seem blurred, like a gauze-shrouded figure, making his position a bit more ethereal and elusive.

"Clang—"

Along with a crisp sound, an energy storm sparked by the clash immediately dispersed the fog.

Qin Chuan's Ice Blade slashed across the outstretched claw of the black demon cat, the blade becoming wedged between the claws, momentarily holding off the demon cat.

"Caught you."

As Qin Chuan's voice fell, a sharp ice cone suddenly shot out from the ice-covered ground, targeting the unprotected belly of the black demon cat.

"Hah—"

The black demon cat howled, contorting its body in mid-air with a bizarre pose, and grasped the ice cone with one of its back bone spurs just before impact, while its powerful hind legs fiercely kicked towards Qin Chuan's chest and abdomen.

Those hind legs, which granted the black demon cat its fearsome speed, possessed unimaginable strength. They produced a roaring wind as they kicked out, their speed so fast that even Water Vision struggled to precisely track them.

If such a kick were to connect, Qin Chuan's abdomen would be ripped open, and he would die instantly!

"Whoosh—"

Unable to dodge, Qin Chuan scattered into a flurry of snowflakes. He reappeared beside the demon cat the moment it stiffened in mid-kick, unleashing a cold blade flare like a crescent moon sweeping towards the black demon cat's waist.

Frost Breaking Slash!

With a successful strike, the black demon cat let out a pained yowl and burst into full speed to put distance between itself and Qin Chuan, baring its fangs threateningly.

Looking at the bloodstain on the black demon cat's waist, Qin Chuan smiled.

It seemed he was slightly superior after all.
