Adopting A Stray Cat Chapter 1040: Xiao Meng’s Surprise Attack

Chapter 1040: Chapter 1040: Xiao ng’s Surprise Attack

When Ya Ling’s body turned into a flash of white light and was teleported away by the Illusion picture scroll, a voice echoed in everyone’s ears. The voice was not loud, but it was very clear: "Ya Ling is eliminated, Qin Sisi scores a hundred points."

Including Qin Sisi, the seven people were all shocked. What shocked the others was how quickly soone had been eliminated, and the person who did it was the seemingly harmless Qin Sisi—it truly was a case of appearances being deceiving.

What shocked Qin Sisi was that the result of the battle had been announced publicly. Now everyone knew that she had eliminated Ya Ling on the first day of the assessnt. From now on, the killing among the students would officially begin.

But right now she couldn’t worry about that; she was too exhausted. Having first fought the Fla King Snake then battled Ya Ling, even with continual consumption of dicinal pills, her physical condition was worriso. She had to rest well for a while. As the sky grew darker, it was also not suitable to continue traveling.

Worried that resting directly on the ground was unsafe, Qin Sisi summoned the Wings of Rainbow to fly to the treetop of a large tree, and she lay down on a thick branch. Fearing that she would fall off after falling asleep, she found a rope from her storage ring and tied herself to the branch.

Finally, she also set up a magic protection shield around her as a precaution against any night-ti ambushes. Although the defensive capability of the magic protection shield was not particularly strong, it could detect the invasion of magic power in ti, waking Qin Sisi from her sleep imdiately.

Just as Qin Sisi had thought, since she had already taken action against a classmate, others had less hesitation in their hearts and accepted the reality that they must kill each other. After all, it was only practice and not actual death.

Thus, the more powerful individuals like Qing Pu and Li Li adopted hunter mode. While hunting Demonic Beasts, they also searched for traces of other students, preparing to earn more points by eliminating classmates like Qin Sisi did.

Those with lesser strength chose Mole Mode, opting for places conducive to their own hiding, and sought points by killing Demonic Beasts. If they encountered soone weaker than themselves, they might consider a battle; if unfortunate enough to et a more powerful opponent, they would utilize the terrain to their advantage and make their escape.

When Qin Sisi woke up, it was the second day of the assessnt. After a night’s calm rest and with the aid of the dicinal pills, her physical condition had more or less recovered.

After finding sothing to eat from her storage ring, Qin Sisi set off again, looking fresh and vigorous. However, after a while, it occurred to her that everyone already knew about her elimination of Ya Ling the day before. Would soone seek revenge for her?

People like Xiao ng, Yun Cheng, and Wen Xuan, who had a better relationship with her, would surely not think of it. Li Li would probably not care who lived or died. However, Qing Pu and An Yun had a good relationship with Ya Ling. If they were intent on revenge, she needed to be extra careful.

With these thoughts, Qin Sisi’s mood beca heavier, and she proceeded even more cautiously on her journey.

However, the dangers she imagined might co never appeared. The day went by very peacefully. Along the way, she encountered so Third Order Demonic Beasts and a few Fourth Order Demonic Beasts, all of which were used to earn points. She did not encounter any Fifth Order Demonic Beasts or any classmates.

The second day of the assessnt passed without incident. In the evening, Qin Sisi once again flew to the top of a large tree and tied herself to a sturdy branch to rest, not forgetting to set up the magic protection shield before falling asleep.

In the early hours of the third day, while Qin Sisi was still half asleep, she felt sothing tickling her nose. It was irritating, and she sneezed, quickly opening her eyes, but saw nothing in front of her, no person or animal to be seen.

Qin Sisi was sowhat puzzled. After looking around for a while, she dispelled the magic protection shield and was just about to summon the Wings of Rainbow to fly down to the ground when she suddenly felt sothing touching her hair. Her body tensed instantly, and she sharply turned her head.

The scene suddenly changed, and her vision blurred for a mont. When she blinked hard and looked again, she realized that the person in front of her was Xiao ng.

Xiao ng was sitting on a branch not far from her, playing with a few leaves, swinging her legs, and smiling sweetly at her.

"Xiao ng!" Qin Sisi was sowhat surprised. She didn’t expect to encounter Xiao ng in such a daze. She really didn’t want to et friends with whom she had a good relationship.

Xiao ng tossed the leaves in her hand, stuck out her tongue at Qin Sisi, and said playfully: "Sister Sisi, did I wake you up?" Qin Sisi smiled gently in response: "Not at all, it’s already bright, I should have woken up anyway."

Xiao ng giggled, made a funny face at Qin Sisi, and Qin Sisi summoned the Wings of Rainbow to descend to the ground with Xiao ng.

Xiao ng asked curiously, "Sister Sisi, did you really eliminate Ya Ling?"

Qin Sisi nodded: "Yes, if I didn’t eliminate her, I would have been the one eliminated."

Qin Sisi recounted the process of the battle with Ya Ling to Xiao ng.

Xiao ng nodded and said: "So that’s what happened. Sister Sisi, don’t worry. I will definitely not act against you. You are my best friend."

Qin Sisi felt very warm in her heart. She was still struggling with what to do next—should she have a real fight with Xiao ng, or quietly go their separate ways, pretending they hadn’t t? Now that Xiao ng had taken the initiative to say she wouldn’t act against her, Qin Sisi would be even less inclined to do so.

Xiao ng took Qin Sisi’s hand and suggested, "Sister Sisi, let’s team up to hunt Demonic Beasts. We’ll definitely be more efficient and score more points."

Qin Sisi thought it over and felt this thod was feasible. If they t other classmates in the future, they could look out for each other, ensuring a higher level of safety.

She was about to agree when suddenly she felt a chill in her palm. An intense cold spread from her hand throughout her body, making her shiver uncontrollably.

Qin Sisi staggered back several steps, looking at Xiao ng in disbelief. The sweet smile on Xiao ng’s face had vanished, replaced by eyes as cold as ice.

How could this be? How could Xiao ng attack her? She had just said she was her best friend and would never act against her!

Reality once again plunged Qin Sisi into despair. Seeing Qin Sisi had been hit, Xiao ng raised her hand again, gathering an extrely cold Ice Attribute Magic Power, and released the magic skill Ice Arrow Rain to attack Qin Sisi.

The first attack that hit Qin Sisi’s palm was the Ice Magic skill Dripping Water into Ice. It compressed the Ice Attribute Magic Power into a tiny ice crystal droplet which, when inserted into the opponent’s body unnoticed, would expand violently upon contact with the body’s warmth. The cold rapidly assaulted all parts of the body, making it stiff and difficult to move, as if one had been frozen.
