It was noon, a rare and precious time for rookies to rest. However, Lingcun had suggested that Shi Xiaobai use this period of time to meet Instructor Hisith and explain the reason for his absence from training. As such, the three of them immediately headed for the rookie training grounds.
Ye Jiaquan did not have any doubts about Shi Xiaobai's identity or name. His extremely dumb brain was already filled with the two matters of "Captain Shi Xiaobai might be beside them" and "Team Red has another member". All he could do was smile foolishly, and from time to time, he would let out a "Heh Heh" laugh.
Along the way, Lingcun would strike up a conversation with Shi Xiaobai from time to time. He mainly told Shi Xiaobai things to take note of, such as the few taboos of Instructor Hisith, or the people he absolutely could not provoke among this batch of rookies, as well as the power distribution of the Destruction rookie circle.
"This batch of Annihilation rookies has been divided into two teams, Red and Blue. Team Blue was always in an advantageous position. Furthermore, their team leader was the only expert at the fourth level of the Psionic Mortal Realm. Hence, Team Blue was extremely cohesive and united against external forces. On the other hand, our Red Team has already started to split from within. "
Lingcun sighed and analyzed, "Team Red now has three different factions due to the divergent voting opinions. The strongest faction is Song Xiao's gang, and the one that can barely match them is the Han Feng team that Ye Jiaquan and I are in. The weakest forces are those who believe that voting should be private and are unwilling to join the team. "
"After two rounds of voting, the Red Team's internal conflict has intensified to the point where it's impossible to salvage the situation. Although Song Xiao is the strongest in the Red Team, I personally can't stand Song Xiao's way of doing things, so I don't want you to join Song Xiao's team. However, after you enter the Red Team, we will respect you no matter which faction you want to join. "
As Shi Xiaobai listened to Lingcun's narration, he nodded his head slightly and occasionally responded with an "Oh".
Although Shi Xiaobai looked like he lacked interest, Lingcun continued to patiently explain to Shi Xiaobai some things to take note of.
In fact, Shi Xiaobai did not pay much attention to it. This was because he was pondering over more important matters. For example, how did Ye Jiaquan manage to make a dent in the metal wall through the air? For example, what method did Lingcun use to suddenly appear out of thin air?
"This Iron Bull is only ranked third on Team Red. He's not even in the top five of the entire Annihilation rookie team. This King can't even see through his fist! "
When Shi Xiaobai recalled Lingcun's description of the distribution of strength between the two teams, he immediately felt immense pressure.
"It looks like Violent Girl did not lie to This King. This King is probably ranked at the bottom of this batch of rookies."
Shi Xiaobai felt somewhat indignant, but he had to admit that he was weak. Looking at the silver-haired youth and the muscular man beside him, he could not help but recall the phrase "maybe Shi Xiaobai has always been by our side". Immediately, he felt a warmth rise in his chest.
"Forget it, forget it. This King will use a millionth of his effort this time. Even This King is afraid of a serious Shi Xiaobai. "
"Wahaha, laugh out loud! Be excited! Newbies of Destruction, your king is here! "
With this thought in mind, Shi Xiaobai's repressed feelings were immediately swept away. He looked forward to the rookie training that he was about to come into contact with.
.....
.....
The metal hut where Ye Jiaquan practiced was not far from the rookie training grounds. The trio only took a few minutes to reach their destination. Along the way, they met quite a number of rookies, but only a few of them would lightly greet Ye Jiaquan. They would thoughtfully glance at Shi Xiaobai a few times, but all of them unanimously ignored the extremely handsome Lingcun.
Shi Xiaobai immediately mocked the silver-haired youth in his heart for not having good relations with others. However, his mind was quickly attracted by the rookie training grounds that were approaching him.
He saw a wide field made of steel that was about the size of ten football fields. The field's surface reflected the scorching sun, and there were several large arenas scattered in the middle.
There were five metal huts surrounding the field. Each of them had their own purpose. Some were used for lectures, while others were special training rooms. One of the metal huts was where the instructors rested. It was said that this batch of [Annihilation] rookies originally had three instructors, but later on, Instructor Hisith believed that he alone was sufficient, so he chased the other two instructors away.
The upper echelons of [Gaia] found Hisith's unusual enthusiasm for teaching odd, but they were helpless. This was because the other two instructors seemed to have experienced an unforgettable experience, so they were determined not to return.
From Lingcun's description, Shi Xiaobai slowly formed an image in his mind of a strange person who loved to toy with others, a person who enjoyed playing games in the world.
However, when Shi Xiaobai walked into Hisith's office and saw Hisith in person, he immediately felt that the image in his mind was not odd enough.
It was not an exaggeration to describe the man named Hisith in front of him as extremely odd.
His red hair stood up like flames, and his crescent-moon-like eyes were squinted, giving off a playful feeling. On his left and right cheeks, there were teardrop-shaped and star-shaped marks. It was impossible to tell his age, and there was a sinister smile hanging on his lips. He was clearly a man, but his facial features gave off the illusion of a seductive and sexy look.
He stood tall and had well-proportioned muscles. He had long arms and long legs, and was wearing a tight-fitting long-sleeved shirt and trousers. There were several golden hoops around his waist that tightly bound his waist, making it look like a compressed spring. Under the restraints of the hoops, his waist was so slender that it looked like it would snap with just a slight grip.
"You are here."
At this moment, there were only the two of them left in Hisith's office. The first person to break the silence was Hisith. His voice was soft and his footsteps were light. His figure was outstanding, but it was filled with a strange sense of oppression. Every step he took seemed to cause the ground to tremble.
Hisith slowly walked in front of Shi Xiaobai and slowly exhaled a faint breath. His eyes were squinted into a slit, as a coquettish smile bloomed on his face.
"Then, what do you plan on doing? My beloved little toy. "
Hisith stretched out two fingers and held Shi Xiaobai's chin, lifting Shi Xiaobai's head up high. His actions were like a thug teasing a young girl.
Shi Xiaobai frowned and immediately wanted to retreat, but he was surprised to realize that his body could not move for some reason. His limbs did not seem to be under his control. All he could do was slightly tremble his muscles despite using all his strength.
Hisith focused his eyes on Shi Xiaobai's face. His eyes shimmered with a strange glint, as though he was admiring his favorite toy.
Shi Xiaobai felt a strange sense of disgust. He no longer attempted to break free from the invisible restraints on his body. He opened his mouth and said loudly, "This King, Tu Dahei, has been absent from training for several days. I'm here to report!"
Hisith let out a strange laugh when he heard this. He released his hand and took a few steps back.
"So that's the case. Your choice is very interesting, but also very boring. You might think that I would agree with your actions, or even help you conceal your identity. But, my beloved little toy, you have neglected one point. I wish for the game to continue, but I wish for it to be ever-changing. I like to be unpredictable. I hate being guessed by anyone, and I hate any fixed outcome. "
As Hisith spoke, he took out a brand new deck of poker cards from his shirt pocket. On the back of the poker cards was a strange dagger with a six-pointed star pierced through it.
Hisith suddenly scattered the poker cards into the air. Immediately, dozens of poker cards scattered in mid-air like leaves flying in the air. However, these poker cards surprisingly did not fall to the ground. Instead, they froze in mid-air, as though they were frozen in mid-air.
"Come on, my beloved little toy. Let us play a little game that no one can guess the outcome of."
Hisith squinted his eyes and smiled, giving off a charming vibe.
