What they wanted was only for Shi Xiaobai to be able to move the diamond monster that dozens of them had been helpless against.
What Shi Xiaobai gave them was punching the diamond monster into fragments. His fist’s wind pressure that flattened a hill shocked them beyond words.
That punch had overturned their imaginations.
And for them to be able to witness this punch, it was a shock, as well as an honor, but mostly excitement.
"This punch would definitely shock the nation. However, even if we tell it to others, others might not even believe us. A rookie at the Psionic Mortal Realm flattening a hill with a single punch and furthermore, it was from the wind pressure. It's as if it's a dream."
"The twenty minute wait was not for nothing. Shi Xiaobai is just too cool. He has never disappointed."
"Previously, I viewed Shi Xiaobai as a monster, but now, Shi Xiaobai is a god in my heart."
"Ah, ah, ah. Shi Xiaobai I love you. I want to have your children!"
"..."
The crowd experienced an euphoria as their applause lasted for nearly ten minutes before it came to an end. Some of their palms had turned red from their clapping, but they continued clapping with all their might. A few girls were screaming at the top of their lungs, "Shi Xiaobai, I want to have your children". Mixed in it were a few shameless gays.
If the various actions Shi Xiaobai had done at the trials left them in admiration and worship, this punch now made them feel like revering him.
They could only use their applause and screams to vent the impulse to kneel before him.
As the applause gradually waned, Shi Xiaobai was still enjoying the process. He said to everyone, "Take these diamonds."
The ground was littered with diamonds and rightfully belonged to him. However, he did not value money that much. Furthermore, dozens of these people were his protectors. They had once protected him on the fifth level. Although they had fled because of the bloody figure, it was an understandable act. What they did was sufficient.
Therefore, Shi Xiaobai wished to use these diamonds to reward them in return.
When a number of rookies heard Shi Xiaobai's words, their eyes lit up as they looked at the diamonds that covered the ground. They could not help but swallow a mouthful of saliva.
However, a struggle flashed in the eyes of a few rookies. They loudly said, "No, we can't take it. These diamonds should belong to you."
These rookies refused it as they found it embarrassing to take the diamonds. The other rookies who wanted the diamonds were momentarily at a loss whether to proceed or not.
Shi Xiaobai sincerely said, "If none of you are taking them, This King will not take a single one."
The rookies were stunned and were unsure as to what to do.
At this moment, Ka Xiaozi suddenly walked to Shi Xiaobai's side. The rookies immediately cast their gazes on this pretty girl that was as pretty as a pixie.
Ka Xiaozi squatted down and picked up a diamond. Turning to the crowd, she softly said, "This isn't a diamond, but Xiaobai's good-intentions. I want one."
Ka Xiaozi kept the diamond with a smile and turned to look at Shi Xiaobai. She said gently, "Thank you."
Shi Xiaobai was slightly surprised and felt inexplicably happy. Not only did the girl have beauty, she also had an empathetic heart.
Shi Xiaobai softly said, "You're welcome."
The rookies gradually began to react.
"I want a piece of Shi Xiaobai's good-intentions."
"Me too..."
"Shall we each take one?"
"One is enough."
"..."
The rookies began muttering to themselves as they walked forward.
Shi Xiaobai said, "There's no need to push. Form a line, and don't only take one. Take as many as you wish."
The rookies naturally obeyed Shi Xiaobai's words. Immediately, they formed very orderly lines, and as there were just too many diamond fragments, no one was afraid that there wouldn't be enough for the people in the back.
The rookies began picking diamonds from the ground. Most people only took one, but there were some who were relatively greedy. They thickened their skin and took a few, but no one took more than five. Even though Shi Xiaobai was chatting with Ka Xiaozi and did not even turn his head over, the rookies still refrained from being overly greedy.
With Ka Xiaozi defining the diamonds as Shi Xiaobai's good-intentions, it would be a waste of Shi Xiaobai's thoughts if they did not take it. If they were too greedy, it would be a defilement of Shi Xiaobai's well-intentions. The rookies who could reach the sixth level were basically the cream of the crop of the organizations' rookies. They had their own code of ethics.
One person did not line up and instead, hesitated for a long while before he walked towards Shi Xiaobai.
Shi Xiaobai turned around and was slightly surprised. The person who walked over was the one who derided him of not being able to move the diamond monster no matter how much strength he used. He was the youth that had even declared to run naked.
The youth walked in front of Shi Xiaobai and gave a deep bow. He said loudly, "Sorry!"
It turned out he was here to apologize.
Shi Xiaobai smiled and said, "There's no need to apologize. This King did not put your words to heart. It's commendable for you to take the initiative to apologize. Just take note in the future."
The youth looked up to give Shi Xiaobai a glance as he said sincerely, "Thank you for your magnanimity! I was actually blinded by jealousy so I spoke without thinking. However, after witnessing that one punch, I'm convinced from the bottom of my heart. Brother Shi Xiaobai, only a heroic figure like you is worthy of a beauty like Sister-in-law!"
Shi Xiaobai was slightly alarmed.
What the heck did he mean by Sister-in-law?
Shi Xiaobai immediately came to a realization as he turned to glance at Ka Xiaozi, who was standing to his right. He noticed that she was beaming while looking at him, her eyes filled with joy and shyness.
Before Shi Xiaobai explained, the youth said once again, "Brother Shi Xiaobai, I definitely am too ashamed to want the diamond. And I feel that just a verbal apology is not enough! As a real man, I have to live up to my promises. I'll run around naked in the forest!"
Shi Xiaobai jumped in fright as he hurriedly said, "Don't!"
The youth firmly shook his head, "No, I have to run naked! Don't worry, I'll stay far away so that no one will see me!"
After the youth said this, he resolutely turned around and charged towards the forest.
Shi Xiaobai was rendered speechless. This youth was quite a character, but revealing his dick was something that hurt both others and himself!
Let's hope no one is unlucky enough to contaminate their eyes. Amitabha.
Shi Xiaobai sighed and noticed Ka Xiaozi beside him staring at him with a burning gaze. Immediately, he felt a headache as he said, "This King already has..."
"I know!"
Ka Xiaozi cut off Shi Xiaobai's words and said softly, "I know you have a girlfriend, and I wish that you are single-minded towards your girlfriend, never to go astray. Just treat me...treat me as a transient guest in your life. Maybe we will never have a chance to meet again after this trial. I have no other wishes. As long as I can stay by your side, experiencing an...interesting escapade, it will be enough to allow me to have memories to accompany in my loneliness."
Shi Xiaobai could clearly see the desire in the girl's eyes and the deep affections she had in her words, but he could not understand why she had so much affection for him despite having just met.
However, Shi Xiaobai was somewhat moved. He could not refuse a small request of her staying by his side to experience an exciting escapade.
At this moment, Ka Xiaozi gave a sweet smile and said, "Later on, during the slaying of the dragon, can you stay by my side? You know that I'm very weak."
Shi Xiaobai nodded and declared seriously, "This King will definitely stay by your side and protect you!"
/> The ends of Ka Xiaozi's lips curled upwards slightly as she turned her head to the side and whispered, "We have a deal."
"Yea."
Shi Xiaobai nodded his head heavily.
At this moment, the rookies that had lined up were finally done picking up the diamonds. Shi Xiaobai felt somewhat helpless when he turned to take a look. The diamonds that filled the ground had only reduced slightly. There were still countless diamonds that filled the ground.
Shi Xiaobai said in a speechless manner, "Why aren't all of you getting more?"
The rookies hurriedly shook their heads as they said, "It's enough, we can't take any more."
Shi Xiaobai fell silent.
How could he keep that many diamonds in his pockets?
Should he just leave them there?
Just as Shi Xiaobai was feeling vexed as to what to do with the diamonds, he felt something by his waist shake a few times.
Shi Xiaobai was slightly taken aback as he stretched his hand into his pocket. Immediately, he touched the item that was moving.
When he took it out, it was a golden ball.
Master Conquest ball?
Shi Xiaobai was surprised and immediately remembered the Thousand Eye Demon Sovereign that was reduced to a mini white dog after it entered the Master Conquest Ball.
For the ball to suddenly shake, could it be that the tiny white dog wanted to come out?
With this thought in mind, Shi Xiaobai pressed the open button on the golden ball as a golden beam shot out. To everyone's amazement, a tiny white dog that stood up like a human appeared in mid-air.
The tiny white dog had snow-white skin with its paws retracted to its chest. Its big, watery eyes made it look extremely cute and very clever.
"Wow, so cute!"
"What is this...it's quite cute."
The crowd exclaimed in praises.
However, the moment the tiny white dog appeared out of the Master Conquest ball, it flew towards the diamonds with a swish. Its speed astounded everyone.
After the tiny white dog landed on the pile of diamonds, it began picking up diamonds. Its eyes were squinted while it produced cries of happiness.
However, the tiny white dog was just too tiny. It would pick up a diamond with one paw and hold the diamonds to its chest with the other. Soon, it could not hold any more. Every diamond picked caused another diamond to immediately drop.
The tiny white dog spent a long time picking, but it did not pick more than ten. It finally realized that it was impossible for it to pick up all the diamonds. Immediately, it turned around to look at Shi Xiaobai with watery, pleading eyes. It let out a whining call.
It didn't sound like a dog's bark, but more like a sultry cat's mew.
Quite a number of girls had their hearts melting.
However, Shi Xiaobai felt a black cloud over his head. Although the tiny white dog had apparently lost its memory after being conquered by the Master Conquest Ball, making it resemble a child, its greedy nature did not change at all.
Shi Xiaobai sighed. The whining calls of the tiny white dog and its teary eyes were just too cute. It made him unable to sit idly.
Shi Xiaobai considered for a moment and walked towards the pile of diamonds. Opening the golden ball in his hand, he scanned the diamonds, and immediately, a golden beam of light bloomed. Like a vacuum, the golden ball instantly swept up all the diamonds on the ground together with the tiny white dog.
Since the Master Conquest Ball had space within it, it was likely able to store the pile of diamonds.
Indeed, the golden ball did not move anymore. The tiny white dog was probably drunk on enjoying itself in the diamond pile.
Shi Xiaobai turned to see everyone looking at him with strange looks. Clearly, they felt somewhat speechless about the endless stream of weird things on his body.
Shi Xiaobai coughed lightly and said, "Let's go. Let's go slay the dragon."
After saying that, Shi Xiaobai took the lead to walk into the mountain valley. Ka Xiaozi followed closely beside him. With the duo standing side-by-side, their backs looked like an immortal couple.
The crowd immediately followed behind him with smiles.
Three minutes later, they had traveled through the leveled hill and finally came to the dragon's location indicated on the map.
The mountain valley was large, incredibly large. The mountains that surrounded the valley were far away towards the horizons.
However, there was nothing in the valley, only barren soil and desolate rocks.
There were no trees, grass or any life.
Of course, there was no so-called dragon.
"Where's the dragon?"
"The map indicates it to be here. We shouldn't have gotten lost, right?"
"That's not right. The first four dragons were waiting for us at the spot the map indicated. Why is this dragon playing hide and seek?"
"Hide and seek? Can you even see somewhere for the dragon to hide in this valley? Could we be scammed by the system? Think about that diamond monster. If not for Shi Xiaobai, we would have been stuck here. Now, even the dragon has disappeared. It's clearly planned so that we won't be able to clear the level!"
The rookies were tremendously confused as they broke out into discussion.
Shi Xiaobai surveyed his surroundings as he suddenly felt a sense of ominous foreboding.
There was a problem with this place.
Shi Xiaobai thought in his mind.
At this moment, time suddenly came to a halt!
"Make your choice, youth!"
The familiar fiery voice resounded in his head once again as the world came to an instantaneous standstill.
A few lines of black text slowly materialized in front of Shi Xiaobai.
[ Choice 1: Save all rookies in Dragon Mountain Valley (B-level reward) ]
[ Choice 2: Prevent Ka Xiaozi from raging (B-level reward) ]
[ Choice 3: Push down the raging Ka Xiaozi (A-level reward) ]
"Make your choice, youth!"

Chapter309 Sudden turn of events
[ Choice 1: Save all rookies in Dragon Mountain Valley (B-level reward) ]
[ Choice 2: Prevent Ka Xiaozi from raging (B-level reward) ]
[ Choice 3: Push down the raging Ka Xiaozi (A-level reward) ]
Seeing the three choices in front of him, Shi Xiaobai was somewhat dumbfounded.
Prevent Ka Xiaozi from raging?
Push down the raging Ka Xiaozi?
What the heck was this!?
Did the choices mean that Ka Xiaozi was about to rage?
Shi Xiaobai could not know beforehand why Ka Xiaozi would rage, nor could he imagine what would happen after Ka Xiaozi raged. After suffering a headache for a moment, he decided to temporarily put aside those two choices.
This time, the Absolute Choice did not have any gentle reminders and there were three choices. Shi Xiaobai had encountered such a type of Absolute Choice only twice—the first being saving Little Fatso, and the second was saving Chen Lingcun.
This type of Absolute Choice was the kind Shi Xiaobai did not wish to encounter the most.
Furthermore, this Absolute Choice was different from the previous two. All three choices in the Absolute Choice this time had very high rewards. Even the lowest was a B-level reward.
According to past experience, trying to complete something with a B-level reward was already rather difficult. Heading to the Underworld to save Chen Lingcun was only a B-level reward after all.
As Shi Xiaobai could only temporarily put the second and third choices aside, he could only choose the first one—[ Choice 1: Save all rookies in Dragon Mountain Valley (B-level reward) ].
Shi Xiaobai was in no hurry to make the choice as he began to seriously contemplate.
Dragon Mountain Valley was clearly the valley they were currently in. The meaning of the choice's words was very simple. Save the rook
ies that numbered more than forty.
But in a trial, saving could have two ways of interpretation. First, it was to save the lives of all the rookies, while the second was to prevent the rookies from being eliminated.
The former was much easier than the latter. This was because elimination was too simple. A random appearance of a dragon might cause a few people to shout the exit command, and if it was to save the lives of the rookies, the exit command could be used as a life-saver for the rookies. There was no need for Shi Xiaobai to save them.
However, Shi Xiaobai actually did not hope that the 'save' meant 'saving lives'. This was because this was a B-level difficulty choice. It was impossible for the saving to be simple. If it was 'saving lives', that meant that matters that would cause the deaths of the rookies would happen next.
But, what sort of crisis or life-threatening danger would happen in this large and empty valley? What would cause the rookies to not be able to even say the exit command?
Shi Xiaobai considered for a very long time until the Absolute Choice began counting down. Only then, did he choose choice 1.
Stopped time began turning once again.
...
...
A dead silence filled the desolate valley. The gray-brown earth looked rather cold and the boulders that littered the ground had been weathered by the elements. It added to the vast and empty valley an additional flavor of the vicissitudes of time.
This spot was clearly where the dragon was, but not only was there no dragon, there was not even a bug to be seen. It was as though it was a holy land of dead creatures, a forbidden ground to the living.
Shi Xiaobai surveyed his surroundings once again with utmost seriousness. Other than the undulating mountain range across the horizons, all he saw was the brown soil and rugged boulders.
Seeing this lifeless scene, Shi Xiaobai suddenly felt an eerie and terrifying aura. A sense of ominous foreboding rose in him.
Shi Xiaobai turned his head. A pair of amber eyes were staring at him as they glowed slightly.
They were Ka Xiaozi's eyes.
Shi Xiaobai immediately recalled the two choices that he could not make heads or tails of.
