Chapter 509: None of you should harbor the thoughts of running

Translator: CKtalon Editor:

It sounded like something vibrating at a speedy pace. It was a sharp sound emitted from the friction of air that nearly burst the eardrums of many.

The crowd traced the source of the sound and looked over.

In a corner, a girl with a single pigtail was looking at them in a deadpan manner. She held two pieces of metal in her hand and they were vibrating rapidly, grinding against each other to emit the sharp, ear-piercing sound.

The girl had bright eyes and beautiful teeth. She looked gorgeous and exuded a pure and youthful air. She was much more beautiful than so-called school belles.

But in the eyes of the upper echelons of the various organizations, the girl was like a devil. She was emitting a sharp sound that left them dizzy. It was unbearable!

The members of the upper echelons covered their ears as they hurriedly ordered the girl to stop.

The girl remained expressionless but she did not stop.

A fat man standing closest to her had burning flames in his eyes. Just as he was about to rush over to teach her a lesson, he was held back by a person standing next to him.

It was unknown who had shouted.

"That's Riko Minamiya! Yama Minamiya's daughter, One-Pun's student!"

This shout left the infuriated members of the upper echelon break out in cold sweat. They hurriedly shut their mouths.

Yama Minamiya and One-Pun were two names that made them panic from the bottom of their hearts.

The Heavens knew how One-Pun had crippled Zhang Meng after Yama Minamiya was 'slightly taught a lesson'. As for Riko Minamiya, she was not only Yama Minamiya's daughter, but she was also One-Pun's student. If they were to 'teach' Riko Minamiya a lesson, what would be the outcome?

Everyone felt a shudder run through their backs as they entertained the thought for a moment.

The fat man's face was drained of its color. He did not dare take another step forward and instead hid.

Seeing everyone 'quieten' down, Riko stopped using 'High Frequency Vibrokinesis', causing the harsh noise to come to a sudden halt.

Everyone had ugly expressions on their faces but none of them dared to reprimand her.

Only the suited man was rather composed. He took a step forward and said in a deep voice, "Miss Minamiya, you did so probably because Shi Xiaobai is a rookie of Gaia. You do not wish to hear others discussing him, but isn't it a bit improper for Miss Minamiya to do something like that? Or could it be that Miss Minamiya has another opinion and wants everyone to quieten down to hear a few words from you? Could it be that Miss Minamiya has some special reason that makes her believe that Shi Xiaobai can last five hours?"

From beginning to end, Riko only stared at the crowd in a deadpan manner. Only when the suited man asked did she suffuse a sneer and said certainly, "I believe that how long Shi Xiaobai lasts in the eighth level is not important because…he will reach the ninth level!"

Riko was very angry and furious. She was so infuriated that she wanted to punch the faces of the organizations' upper echelons.

She was not angry over their 'slandering' of Shi Xiaobai's strength. In fact, she knew that what the crowd said wasn't wrong. Shi Xiaobai had not shown an impressive strength in the first six levels but he was not hiding his strength. It was because Shi Xiaobai's strength was only so. But he had also managed to reach the eighth level later and accomplished fascinating matters. There was only one reason—Shi Xiaobai was improving! He was becoming stronger at an unbelievable speed!

Riko, who understood Shi Xiaobai's rate of improvement, believed that it was possible for Shi Xiaobai to metamorphosize in the trial!

Therefore, Riko would not be angry over their 'ignorance'.

What she was angry about was that the crowd was discussing the length of time he would spend on the eighth level. No one, not a single person had mentioned a possibility, however minute it may be—that Shi Xiaobai might perhaps clear the eighth level and reach the ninth level.

Riko was upset that the crowd had ignored this possibility from the beginning. They had 'assassinated' Shi Xiaobai's endless potential with their words!

Hence, Riko finally could not bear it any further!

Even if she were to be be ridiculed, she would boast about Shi Xiaobai!

However, the moment she said those words, she was met with the laughter from the entire auditorium.

Even though they were afraid of One-Pun, everyone could not help but roar with laughter after hearing Riko mention that Shi Xiaobai could reach the ninth level!

"Miss Minamiya…"

The suited man could not help but shake his head. He said with a laugh, "Miss Minamiya, do you not know of the words that Overlord Ji Feng, Xu Taibai, and the Conquest King had said? Although the three of them were unwilling to reveal the ongoings on the eighth level, they had said the same sentence—'No human can clear the Nine Revolutions Transcendental Tower's eighth level. The person that can clear it is not human!' Does Miss Minamiya intend to imply that Shi Xiaobai is not human?"

This was the reason why the Chinese citizens and the upper echelons of the organizations had eliminated the possibility of Shi Xiaobai clearing the eighth level and they had skipped to discussing the length of time he could last on the eighth level. That was because the three famous historical figures believed that 'humans could not clear the eighth level'. It was obvious how difficult it was!

Riko naturally knew of these sentences but she still felt disgruntled for Shi Xiaobai. She stubbornly said, "What the trio can't do doesn't mean that others can't do! What people from ancient times think impossible doesn't mean it will remain an impossibility for the present or future! No one can deny Shi Xiaobai's limitless possibilities! No one!"

Everyone shook their heads in hilarity. They only believed that the girl was having an unreasonable tantrum. Some of the members of the upper echelon immediately laughed as they would not cause trouble for themselves by being bystanders.

"If Shi Xiaobai were to reach the ninth level, I'll be vegetarian for nine months!"

"How difficult is eating vegetarian food? If Shi Xiaobai were to reach the ninth level, I'll abstain from sex for nine months!"

"Hehe, if Shi Xiaobai were to be able to do it, I'll call him 'Brother' and apologize to him by offering him tea myself."

"I'll call him 'Daddy' and kowtow to him in apology."

"Haha, all of you are going too far. If Shi Xiaobai were to do it…hehe, I'm a little timid, so I'll bet less. If Shi Xiaobai were to do it, I'll run naked around the hero sacred grounds three times!"

"Wow, your bet is really nothing. To run naked around the hero sacred grounds, aren't you afraid of being imprisoned for decades? I'll bet something small as well. If Shi Xiaobai were to do it, I'll publicly pee on the Conquest King's statue!"

"…"

Everyone laughed in an unbridled manner. Many of them were indeed not too sure about the length of time Shi Xiaobai could spend in the eighth level, but they were 'certain' that Shi Xiaobai would not be able to reach the ninth level!

Even the impressive Overlord Ji Feng, the most realistic Sword Immortal Xu Taibai, and the most ambitious Conquest King, who wanted to be the king of all humanity, had said that 'humans could not clear the eighth level'. Hence, the difficulty in clearing the eighth level could not be described as being 'as difficult as ascending the heavens'. It was more appropriate to describe with 'impossible'!

Everyone could not stop their laughter when suddenly, a deep voice abruptly sounded.

"Shi Xiaobai has reached the ninth level."

The sound was deep and heavy but it was definitely not loud. However, it had managed to reach the ears of everyone despite the din.

"What joke are you…"

Someone subconsciously mocked but suddenly found the voice familiar. It sounded like Azure Emperor Jiang Tianyou's voice. Immediately, he felt his heart thump as he stiffly turned his neck over.

Everyone seemed to subconsciously notice something amiss as they turned to look at the gigantic stone monument in the middle of the auditorium.

On it, the words 'Shi Xiaobai' had already moved up from the eighth level. It was already at the highest spot on the stone monument and emitting a dazzling golden luster!

"Gulp~"

The auditorium resounded with gulping sounds. Immediately following that, there was silence. Everyone was dumbfounded.

Riko was also dumbfounded but she quickly forced a composed look. With a cold tsk, she said, "Those who mentioned eating vegetarian or abstain from sex, and those who want to address someone as Brother and Daddy, as well as those who want to run naked around the hero sacred grounds and pee on the Conquest King's statue, I have remembered them all. None of you should harbor the thoughts of running!"

Riko felt that countless buzzing of the flies had been smacked to death in one shot. The refreshing feeling was indescribable. If Shi Xiaobai were here, she probably could not stop herself from kissing Shi Xiaobai on the forehead with a loud smack.

Heavens, Little Pervert really was empowering!

And at the other corner of the auditorium, the suited reporter, Bravel Chen, could not control his upheaval of emotions. He carefully took out his cell phone and glanced at it before quickly hiding it back in his pocket.

The recording was still ongoing!

Wow, wow, wow!

He had a windfall!

Bravel Chen had only hoped to spark a debate and smack the faces of a portion of people. He never expected that other than Riko Minamiya, everyone else had been smacked in the face!

If this recording were to be uploaded, it would definitely be one of the trending searches in a manner of days!

How much was this recording worth?

Bravel Chen only felt his hands trembling. He nearly yelled!

How does wealth come to the rich?

How does one distinguish himself?

Nothing else is needed, only bravery!
