Absolute Choice-Chapter 491

Auditorium

When Riko saw that Mozzie and Kevin’s expression looked extremely ‘interesting’, she was exhilarated but also filled with disbelief. Mozzie had even pinched herself in her delicate cheeks, afraid that she was dreaming.

Riko smiled. She understood their euphoria.

She too never expected for the miracle to truly happen. The victor of the meeting was Gaia who had stood alone!

She had been considering the methods to console and counsel Mozzie and Kevin after the failure of the meeting, but she never expected that they won at the meeting!

“We won! It’s not a dream. The spots to the collective training are yours. They’re still yours!”

Riko announced the result in an affirmed manner to the duo who still found it unbelievable.

Kevin looked up suddenly as he clenched his constantly shaking right hand. His mouth opened up slightly. He had planned to roar and release the nervousness in him but he swallowed it back down when he realized that it wasn’t the right place to do so.

They won!

He could participate in the collective training!

Heavens, is this really a dream or not?

“Oh yeah! It’s awesome. I can fight alongside Lord Shi Xiaobai again.” Mozzie held Riko’s hands as she jumped and danced joyfully. A brilliant smile beamed on her face. Compared to Kevin, it was easier for her to accept matters with such great impact. After all, she was a fat chick that had no ulterior motives or will. Compared to others, she had a heart that was free from care or worries.

Kevin was immediately infected when he saw Mozzie’s cute jumping and cheering. His somewhat stiff face gradually suffused a smile.

He had once felt disappointed and hurt by everyone’s mockery and doubts. He had even nearly lost the courage to vie for it. He began to have cowardly thoughts of giving up. But at that moment, Yama Minamiya had patted him firmly on the shoulders and said, “Child, the collective training spot is rightfully yours. The present you absolutely has the qualifications to enjoy this privilege. You also absolutely have the ability to shoulder this obligation. So do not be discouraged or dejected. Be brave and fight for it. Bravely prove yourself!”

After that, Yama Minamiya had stood forward in front of them. He bore the brunt of everyone in order to fight for their collective training spots. It made him reignite his hopes of participating in the collective training!

He did not give up nor could he give up. It was because even though he felt despair from trying to win the nomination, he absolutely did not wish to disappoint the great division minister who stood in front of him.

Words could not fully express his gratitude towards Division Minister Minamiya. At that moment, he felt from the bottom of his heart how honored he was to be a member of Gaia.

Kevin gradually lifted his head. He felt his eyes turn sour. If he did not lift his head, it was as if something strange would drip down his eyes. He had once thought himself as a genius but he later discovered that he was only a frog in a well. After seeing the soaring mighty eagle, he was jolted awake.

It was not easy for him to climb out the well to discover that the world was so vast and that the sky was so infinite. He wanted to go far and soar high but he was shocked to realize that he was surrounded by marsh and that he did not have a pair of wings behind him.

A boat had fallen from the sky one day in front of him.

Countless toads were eyeing that boat and there were countless swans that believed that he was not worthy. They had mocked him, scolded him and ‘advised’ him to scram back to the bottom of his well.

The world in the well was not necessarily bad. At least it was warmer than the cold marsh.

There had been that instant when he had such a thought.

But finally, he decided to bid a final farewell to that desolate well.

It was partly because the marsh would bloom untainted lotus flowers. Also, he wanted to see and he had the desire, an insatiable desire to see with his own eyes, even if it were just a glance, the scenery as seen from that mighty eagle.

“Eh? You’re crying. Kevin, you are crying!” exclaimed Mozzie, who was free from care or worries, while she suddenly pointed at Kevin.

Kevin blushed immediately as he raised his hand to wipe the corners of his eyes. He hurriedly said, “It’s only sand in my eyes!”

Mozzie smacked her lips and said, “It’s just tears of joy! Why do you need to blame the sand!?”

The blushing on Kevin’s face intensified as he opened his mouth in the hopes of ‘giving an explanation’.

Suddenly, with the sound of a ping, an exclamation was heard suddenly. It gave Kevin a fright.

“Shi…Shi Xiaobai has entered…entered the eighth…eighth level!” A suited reporter who had been sitting in front of the stone monument had suddenly leaped up from his stool. He had cried out in excitement while staring at the trial tower’s stone monument.

Riko and company were first shocked before they reacted. They hurriedly turned to look at the trial stone monument in the middle of the auditorium.

They saw the three words, ‘Shi Xiaobai’, on the stone monument. It was covered with a layer of gold and was shining resplendently. It was surprisingly located at the stone monument’s eighth level!

“Hea…Heav…Heavens!” Kevin drew a gasp. He was completely flabbergasted. If it was possible, he wished he could flood a series of thumbs-up in the form of ‘666’ in the novel’s comment section.

“Too cool! Lord Shi Xiaobai is just too cool!” Mozzie leaped up in joy. She was even happier than before when she heard that she had obtained the nomination for the collective training.

Riko gulped as she stared at the trial tower’s stone monument in a dumbfounded manner. From the rookie evaluation test, the little pervert had continuously created all sorts of miracles. He had been able to give her all sorts of pleasant surprises and inundated her with shock. She never expected that…it was even more exaggerated this time. He had reached the eighth level that only three historical figures had ever reached.

The suited reporter glanced at Riko and company and realized that he had spoken too loudly. He hurriedly covered his mouth, but after he confirmed that Riko and company were not reporters as well, he heaved a sigh of relief.

What a relief! Thankfully they were not competitors or this shocking news would have been ‘shared’ with others.

The suited reporter recalled the domination the experienced reporters had on him. He could not calm down even after a long time. It was all the fault of his loose tongue. He was easily tricked into providing information to others. Every time he found a piece of important news, he would be tricked and leaked the news. Therefore, over all these years, it was not easy for him to become the exclusive news agency to break the shocking news. Eventually, he would always submit to his President exclusive news that was not popular, to the reprimanding of his boss.

Hence, he had to guard his piece of news regardless of anything. No, it should be his mouth.

He surveyed his surroundings and confirmed that his peers were resting. He was elated that he was the first reporter to receive the news. He hurriedly took out his cell phone and made a call!
