Destiny Rekindled

Chapter 102 The Ninth Star Equipment Material! (Additional update in April for 1200 monthly tickets)

Ji Huai’s private lessons teach the techniques of using a long sword, but they are not limited to just the techniques of using a long sword.

During the instruction process, he also shared his combat philosophy.

In Ji Huai's view, the two sides in a battle are like the two sides of a scale. If the gap in strength between the two sides is too large, the scale will quickly tilt towards one side, and such a battle is often without suspense.

When the strength is close, the balance of victory will swing to the other end. If one party suffers an injury that affects his status during the battle, he will be more likely to be injured in the next battle, causing the balance to tip to the other side.

and so…

Take advantage of his illness and kill him!
Qin Chuan held the long sword tightly in both hands and pointed it at the black demon cat not far away. Ji Huai's low roar echoed in his mind, and his eyes suddenly became sharp.

The water-blue light appeared in his eyes again. Qin Chuan saw the beating heart of the black demon cat and the blood circulating in its body. He also saw the temporary blockage of blood when it flowed through the wounds in its waist and abdomen.

As he focused all his attention on the knife in his hand and the opponent in front of him, this moment seemed particularly quiet in his perception. He felt the frost surging around him and the wind blowing through the dense forest behind him.

His body and the long sword in his hand instantly turned into countless frost and snow. He rose up with the wind and quickly rushed towards the black demon cat.

The black demon cat had an alert look on its face. It arched its back while roaring ferociously, staring at the oncoming frost and snow. Instead of retreating, it advanced and violently swung its sharp claws in an attempt to tear apart the human who was pretending to be a ghost and hiding in the frost and snow.

Its waving claws stirred up a strong wind, ruffling the oncoming frost. Its unparalleled power shattered the snowflakes into powder in just a moment.

But its attack fell into the air and did not touch Qin Chuan at all.

The attempt failed, and the moment it landed again, the black demon cat did not hesitate to burst out at its fastest speed, trying to escape from this ominous snowy area.

But it seemed to have forgotten that it was injured.

Under the full force of the black demon cat, the wound on its waist and abdomen was torn open slightly, and the blocked blood instantly broke through the obstruction and splashed out like a dam bursting, causing the wound to worsen again.

it's time.

Qin Chuan, who could see everything clearly through the water vision, muttered silently and appeared on the injured side of the black demon cat. The long knife in his hand stabbed out instantly, penetrated deeply into the wound, and passed through the gap between the ribs at an extremely tricky angle and reached the chest cavity.

"Pfft-"

The chill that erupted from within the body made the black demon cat's body stiffen instantly, and its pierced and frozen heart caused its life force to quickly leave its body.

As Qin Chuan pulled out the bloody sword, the black demon cat's body fell heavily to the ground.

At the end of its life, it stared at Qin Chuan, letting out a whimper filled with blood foam. The last ray of light disappeared from its eyes, and Qin Chuan's figure was sealed in its lifeless pupils.

ended.

Qin Chuan glanced at the time on his wrist, confirmed that he was not overtime, and breathed a sigh of relief.

This time, I should be able to get first place.

"Well done."

A familiar voice floated from not far away. Qin Chuan was suddenly startled and turned back abruptly, "Teacher Ji?!"

He didn't even notice when the other party came.

"I just happened to be passing by." Ji Huai didn't explain too much, and said calmly, "There are only five minutes left, let's continue the assessment."

"Okay..." Qin Chuan nodded.

Having said that, it was already the last five minutes, and he had just killed the black demon cat. The string that had been tense for nearly two hours finally loosened. He slumped under a tree next to him, took out a strength-recovering fruit and stuffed it into his mouth.

Ji Huai walked up to the black demon cat, looked at it twice, then looked at Qin Chuan, turned around and was about to leave.

"Teacher Ji!" Qin Chuan suddenly remembered something and quickly called out to him, "Is this demon cat level 20?"

Ji Huai's figure did not stop as he left, only words came to him. "That bear is."

Eh?
Watching Ji Huai disappear into the dense forest, Qin Chuan fell into deep thought.

Teacher Ji means... the advanced demon bear we killed before was level 20?

He couldn't help but take another look at the black demon cat.

So what is this?
-
After the examination is over, all candidates will gather at the playground where they came from.

The first thing that caught their attention was the experience gems piled up like a small mountain on the ground.

For a moment, even Qin Chuan couldn't take his eyes away.

How many experience gems does this require? At least thousands!
"Congratulations everyone for successfully completing this practical assessment and returning here safely." Lan Cheng coughed lightly, and his loud voice diverted the candidates' attention away from the experience gems.

"The experience gems you see now are the rewards for this practical test. Apprentice candidates ranked 2nd to 100th will receive different amounts of experience gems according to their rankings."

"All formal candidates will get a share, and how many they get depends on their ranking."

"And now..." Lan Cheng's voice rose a few notches, and he raised a piece of paper in his hand, "Your ranking is here."

As soon as the words fell, everyone's eyes turned to the ranking in Lan Cheng's hand.

"First place in the trainee class... Changxing No. 7 Middle School, Grade (), Li Xian!"

As Lan Cheng finished speaking, cheers erupted in the queue. Xiaopang walked out with a heartless pace, amid the envious and jealous gazes of the candidates, laughing so hard that his eyes were almost invisible.

Qin Chuan was also a little confused.

This guy really got first place in the apprentice class?

But Qin Chuan's expression changed slightly when he noticed that Xiaopang's clothes were not the same ones he wore when he came, and a white bandage could be seen on the cuffs of his short-sleeved shirt.

In order to get this first place, Xiaopang must have suffered a lot.

Once this guy makes up his mind about something, he will be so stubborn that even ten bulls can't pull him back.

Before he could think any more, Lan Cheng spoke again.

"First place in the official class...Changxing No. 7 Middle School, Grade (), Qin Chuan!"

Everyone's eyes instantly turned to Qin Chuan.

The fact that the two first places were both in No. 2 Middle School and were even in the same class was obviously beyond everyone's expectations.

Qin Chuan strode out, with waves of emotion inevitably rising in his heart.

the first!

This means that he can choose any star equipment material from the list provided by the Special Affairs Group.

Before the weekly settlement, he already had four pieces of star equipment materials. The settlement of the Extraordinary Ranking and the refresh of the Achievement Store allowed him to obtain three more pieces. During the resource exploration before leaving the dream world, he discovered the eighth piece of star equipment material.

Although he hasn't gone to pick it up yet, Qin Chuan has already assumed that he has it.

So, this is his ninth piece of star equipment material.

If everything goes well, Splash will soon have his own star equipment and complete the equipment evolution.

Patting Xiaopang on the shoulder, Qin Chuan stood in front of the stage, looking at the other thirteen formal-level candidates who were looking at him with different expressions below, with a bright smile.

Everyone, thank you for your patience!
