A bit of a test!

If I was flying a jet and was asked my present altitude, as ATC wanted to clear another aircraft to climb to my last vacated level. The following aircraft is also a jet how ever has a better rate of climb. I called and said
ABC is approaching 9,000,
at what altitude am I at???
What level can ATC clear the following aircraft to, assuming 1000 ft seperation.
