Fate Reignites: My Rampage in a World Where Time Stops-Chapter 257: Courses Snow Cream is Interested in (May 2850 Monthly Ticket Bonus)
Real world.
Qin Chuan woke up from his sleep, and as soon as he opened his eyes, he met the envious and eager gazes of his three roommates.
"Bro, you've gotten stronger again."
Zhou Xiaochen sighed deeply, "You're stronger than us and even improve faster, how is that even fair?"
The other two roommates nodded in agreement.
Qin Chuan was speechless, knowing they were talking about the breakthrough of Ice Cream.
With the server-wide channel available, every breakthrough he made was instantly known worldwide.
After the Epic Rank, there is no more Spiritual Beast List.
But disappearing from the Hall Rank Spiritual Beast List also signaled a breakthrough.
Of course, he knew that wasn't what his roommates really meant.
Their eager eyes had not faded since yesterday.
Glancing over the instance list and seeing there were still no new S-tier instances today, Qin Chuan smiled.
"I'll save our attempts on the instances, so later you guys can bag yourselves a purple title."
Although he couldn't give equipment, a reliable purple title would make them more skillful in handling the instances they could partake in.
More importantly, titles could not be taken away.
No need to worry about the saying, 'A man with treasure invites trouble.'
As soon as he finished speaking, Qin Chuan gained three 'sons.'
The father-son relationship among men is just that simple.
"Chuan-dad, we have a combat skills class this afternoon, are you going to attend?" Du He'an asked with a grin.
"I'll be there," Qin Chuan nodded.
The combat skills class was led by several instructors, each skilled in different techniques, all worth learning from.
Ji Huai is just one of them; in terms of skills, there are a few others that could match him.
That was something Ji Huai had specifically reminded him of yesterday.
Although these instructors weren't as fortunate as Ji Huai in contracting a fully compatible Spiritual Beast, resulting in an Affinity short of 100% and without mastering Spirit Descent to get sponsored by the Special Affairs Group.
But in skills, a master can be a teacher.

"See that, Zhao-zi?" Du He'an turned to Yu Zhao, spreading his hands, "If Chuan-dad is attending, how can you think of skipping?"
"Fine, I won't skip," Yu Zhao muttered begrudgingly, "But these people have practiced their skills for decades, can we really learn anything substantial from just a few classes?"
He was the only one among the four roommates who got into the combat major based on academic scores, with limited understanding of skills.
Since he felt that such classes were useless, he had considered skipping.
"Indeed," Qin Chuan was dumbfounded, reminded of when he initially asked Ji Huai a similar question, "Cultivation methods will enhance our senses and physical fitness, help us master skills quicker, and moreover..."
"Don't underestimate the combat skills class teachers; they surely have a method for you to learn quickly," Qin Chuan said, his smile turning a bit strange.
Isn't it unfair if I'm the only one getting thrashed around?
"Ying~"
Time for combat skills class!
In his mind, he heard the voice of Ice Cream.
Ice Cream, newly introduced to the real world with Water Flower's help, quickly grasped the current situation and expressed eagerness to attend the combat skills class.
As a qualified assassin, the pursuit of powerful skills was instinctual.
"Don't worry, I won't miss it," Qin Chuan communicated with Ice Cream in his mind, his smile deepening.
This was, of course, another reason why he wanted to attend the combat skills class.
"I've never been to this kind of class either, but I've definitely got to try it," Zhou Xiaochen raised a hand and flexed, showing off his solid biceps, "Just do it and it's done."
"Okay, let's take you to the next instance first," Qin Chuan said with a smile, casually selecting an A-rank instance for teams of more than four people.
With three shouts of "Thank you, foster father," the four disappeared from the spot.
-----------------
"Ying~"
The invigorated voice of Snow Cream echoed in Qin Chuan's mind.
Watching Qin Chuan easily slay the instance boss with his own powers, it too felt a great sense of achievement.
After swiftly clearing the first A-rank instance with his three roommates, he stopped concerning himself with them and began to solo A-rank instances rapidly.
Today, all the active skills he carried were those of Snow Cream, thus he couldn't perform Spirit Descent with Water Flower.
However, having two spiritual beasts at the Epic Rank already made his Extraordinary Value double that of ordinary Hall Level players, and he could handle A-rank instances with ease even without using Spirit Descent.
Intentionally speeding up, Qin Chuan now took only about half an hour to resolve an A-rank instance and obtain an SSS rating.
He was now on his twelfth A-rank instance of the day.
Attacking so many A-rank instances in succession was partly to replenish the spent Time Stop and partly to better synchronize with Snow Cream in battle, trying to master the Secret Technique and complete the Spirit Descent with Snow Cream.
However...
Looking at the fallen twelfth A-rank instance boss, Qin Chuan's brow slightly furrowed.
From the tenth instance onwards, he had felt his compatibility with Snow Cream touch upon a certain line.
This feeling was familiar; he had felt the same before mastering the Secret Technique with Water Flower.
Yet this line was the most difficult to cross.
After conquering two instances in succession, Qin Chuan felt a stagnation in his progress.
The opponents were simply too weak.
How could opponents he could kill with his own strength, without needing to use Time Stop, provide him with sufficient pressure and honing?
At this point, the best method would likely be, as before, to attack an S-rank instance.
But...
Qin Chuan opened the instance list again.
He had nearly cleared half of the A-rank instances, yet no S-rank instances had appeared.
The number of new instances was plentiful, but all were of lower ranks.
"Forget it, let's leave it at that," Qin Chuan shook his head helplessly, quickly gathered the instance clues to raise the rating to SSS, and then left.
He didn't try another.
Because the practical skills class in the afternoon was about to begin.
He had promised Snow Cream that he would take it to this class.
Besides, the practical skills might help with their mastery of the Secret Techniques, right?
The practical skills class was conducted in a spacious martial arts field.
This field, originally an open-air sports stadium at Yan University, had been remodeled and expanded after the decision to enroll Transcendent students, and had just been completed shortly before the new students' registration.
Now, it came in handy.
Two hundred students from four classes attended the class together, but even fully spread out, the large martial arts field still seemed exceedingly spacious.
In front of everyone stood six skills instructors, five men and one woman, all dressed in tight outfits, looking formidable even without anger.
Having used Heaven Burying Slash continuously over the past 48 hours, Ji Huai's hand injury had healed.
He stood with his hands behind his back in the forefront of the six, dressed in loose training garments, his gaze sweeping across the field.
"All members will undergo a skills foundation test, and based on different foundations, will follow different skills instructors to learn," Ji Huai announced, and the other five began to swiftly assess the skills of the students present.
The grouping was quickly completed; in the end, only Qin Chuan and a boy from practical combat class 7 named Li Nianzhu were assigned to Ji Huai.
The latter was a refined and elegant-looking young man who smiled amiably at Qin Chuan after standing out from the crowd and then looked respectfully towards Ji Huai.
"Hello, Uncle Master."
