Ryusei and Tang Hao stepped inside the Star Duo Forest and started searching for a spirit Beast. Tang Hao asked him, ”So, what's your plan right now? You first want to fight a Beast or just absorb the Spirit Energy in the forest.”

Ryusei stayed silent for some time and replied, ”I think that I should probably start with fighting the beasts as I don't really have any combat ability and after improving my combat abilities I will absorb the Spirit Energy from the area.”

Tang Hao nodded at his reply and then both of them proceeded to search for a Beast. After some time, they came across a Phantom Leopard sitting on a tree's branch with an unreadable expression on its face. It was a 2000-year-old Beast and was pure Black in colour and Ryusei could see a faint yellow light glittering from its eyes.

He felt that the Phantom Leopard was vulnerable right now. After observing it for a while longer, he adjusted his body to jump on the tree. He was ready to use his Purple Lightning Dragon's Claw to kill the leopard, he sprang upwards like an arrow towards its location.

He soon reached near the Phantom Leopard, who seemed to have belatedly noticed his presence. Slowly turning towards Ryusei's direction, it jumped backwards to dodge Ryusei's attack.

When Ryusei saw it jumping back, he stopped channeling his Purple Lightning Dragon's Claw as it would have been a waste to use it. The Phantom Leopard turned his gaze filled with anger and injustice towards its enemy. It was enraged at the fact that someone dared to attack him while he was resting on a branch peacefully, minding his own business.

Ryusei reached the place where the Phantom Leopard was peacefully sitting and turned towards the Phantom Leopard, it seemed to be tensed up, ready to pounce at Ryusei at any time. After a lengthy staring contest, the Phantom Leopard gave up and finally jumped at his target. Ryusei smiled as he saw this and thought, 'Come!'

The Phantom Leopard suddenly pounced towards him but was countered by Ryusei who too jumped off towards the Phantom Leopard, kicking it away while they both were in mid air. As a result, the Phantom Leopard ended up thrown back towards a tree.

Ryusei landed on the ground maintaining his centre of gravity. He leveraged the excessive energy towards spinning around and turned towards the Phantom Leopard. It seemed to have managed to recovered itself from the hit and managed to blend in Shadows and vanish from his sight.

Ryusei was surprised by the spectacle as he didn't expect that a low level beast like a Phantom Leopard would have a stealth ability just like that. He then started to observe his surroundings, just as a shadow was creeping silently towards him. When the Phantom Leopard came close to his position, it tensed his hind leg muscles and pounced on Ryusei leaking the intent to kill. It didn't notice a smirk travel across the boy's face - Ryusei was ready for its attack.

He jumped upwards into the air, backflipped and used the tree behind him as a foothold and plunged speedily towards the Phantom Leopard face first. This time he activated his Purple Lightning Dragon Claw. His entire left hand transformed to a claw and had scales similar to that of a Dragon with Purple Lightning flickering around it. From afar, it simply looked like a blast of purple laser.

He swung his Purple Lightning Dragon Claw at the Phantom Leopard and tore apart its body, killing it at the same time. After killing the Phantom Leopard, Ryusei stood up and turned towards Tang Hao who came towards him.
