"Make your choice. Choose one out of the fifty-four poker cards. If your points are above ten, I will help you conceal your identity. If your points are below ten, I will directly eliminate you from the rookie queue. Make your choice, my beloved little toy. "
Hisith spoke with a sinister smile on his face. His expression was teasing, but his tone was not to be doubted.
Shi Xiaobai suddenly felt his body relax. The invisible force that was restraining him had been removed. However, when he looked up and locked eyes with Hisith, he immediately felt a bone-chilling chill. It was as though he was in a dark forest that was fraught with danger.
Shi Xiaobai instinctively felt fear, but he also felt abnormally angry. Hisith's words of "make your choice" made him recall the unforgettable dusk, as well as the cold voice that resounded in his mind.
"Although This King prefers multiple-choice questions compared to fill-in-the-blank questions and short answer questions, This King does not like to be forced to make a choice. Why should This King choose from the choices you give him? This King will not. This King wants to choose — not to choose! "
Shi Xiaobai said with a sneer as he looked straight into Hisith's narrowed eyes. He felt as though the coldest blade was hidden in those slits. Every glance he took lessened the courage in his heart, but Shi Xiaobai did not move his gaze away because of that.
"Very good! Very good! Very good! "
Hisith suddenly raised his head while covering his face. He let out an ear-piercing, sharp and terrifying maniacal laugh. Moments later, he inserted his fingers into his fiery red hair as he grinned into a sinister smile.
"Shi Xiaobai, oh Shi Xiaobai. I'm really starting to like you more and more. Your choice has surprised me, so I'm very satisfied. "
Hisith stuck out his tongue to lick his lips. Suddenly, his body passed through the densely packed poker cards as though he had teleported. The poker cards did not tremble, but Hisith had already appeared beside Shi Xiaobai.
Shi Xiaobai's pupils constricted as he could not help but draw a gasp. Suddenly, he realized that his body had been bound by the invisible force once again. His body was stiff, unable to move.
Hisith leaned his face close to Shi Xiaobai and like a lover's whisper, he said softly, "But the game has already begun. I will not allow you to quit midway. So you will ultimately have to make a choice. If you do not choose, I will — "
Sith lengthened the word "will" and suddenly shut his mouth. The words that came to a sudden stop immediately triggered infinite thoughts. Shi Xiaobai could not help but ponder. If he insisted on not choosing, what would the pervert do?
Shi Xiaobai felt his heartbeat constantly increase as sweat seeped out of his back. The fear that came from the depths of his soul was about to occupy his consciousness. The devilish face that was just inches away from him looked like the face of a ferocious ghost.
"Relax, relax, don't be nervous."
Hisith chuckled as he stretched out his right hand with sharp nails and gently caressed Shi Xiaobai's cheek.
As the cold fingers wandered across his face, Shi Xiaobai immediately felt goosebumps.
"It's just a small game. This King will play with you, alright? Get your hand off me. "
Shi Xiaobai was feeling extremely indignant, but he did not dare to put on a brave front. His intuition told him that the pervert in front of him was very 'dangerous'.
Sith slowly retracted his hand when he heard that. His expression seemed to be a little disappointed. He turned around and took a step forward. In the blink of an eye, he had returned to the other side where the poker cards had split.
"Make your choice. Choose a poker card that you believe will be greater than ten."
Hisith emphasized the rules of the game once again. Just as he said, this was a small game that no one could guess the outcome of. This was because the deciding factor seemed to be — luck?
Of course, this game was rather disadvantageous to Shi Xiaobai. This was because there were only fourteen cards out of the fifty-four poker cards that were greater than ten but not equal to ten.
Shi Xiaobai focused on the poker cards that were floating in mid-air. He could only see the back of the six-pointed dagger, but he was unable to distinguish them, much less find fourteen out of fifty-four of them. From the looks of it, this required a certain amount of luck.
"This one!"
In just three seconds, Shi Xiaobai had made his choice. He pointed at an inconspicuous card among the dozens of poker cards. It was not located in a corner, nor was it in any special spot. It was the most ordinary card.
However, Shi Xiaobai's eyes were filled with confidence. When he made his choice, his expression and tone were extremely certain. It was as though the choice he made was definitely correct. It was as though the outcome of this game of luck that no one could guess was already determined in his eyes.
Hisith was standing on the other side of the poker cards, so he could tell at a glance what card Shi Xiaobai had chosen. His gaze was intently staring at the poker card that had been chosen as he fell into a long period of silence.
"You have passed, Little Friend Tu Dahei. I look forward to the rookie training that will follow. I will properly — 'pamper' you."
After a long while, Hisith finally announced the outcome of the game. His voice was still soft and charming, but his tone was extremely cold. The deliberate tone in which he said the word "pamper" was even more hair-raising.
Shi Xiaobai felt the invisible restraints on his body disappear once again. Without a word, he hurriedly left the office. He felt that every second he spent with this pervert was an additional minute of danger.
After Shi Xiaobai left, Hisith maintained the same posture. His gaze was still on the poker card that Shi Xiaobai had chosen.
"One in fifty-four. Is it a coincidence or a necessity?"
Hisith reached out his hand to hold the poker card that Shi Xiaobai had chosen. The other fifty-three poker cards suddenly turned into blobs of blue flames, burning to ashes in a few moments.
As for the poker card in Hisith's hand, it revealed its front — it was the biggest "Red Ghoul" out of the fifty-four poker cards!
"It looks like you indeed possess the Perception of God, and it's the most powerful Intuition of God. Interesting, truly interesting. As a toy, you are too extravagant. "
"However, the game has only just begun. I will properly 'teach' you. I hope you do not disappoint me."
Hisith placed the "Red Ghoul" back into his shirt's pocket as a sinister smile suffused across his lips.

When Shi Xiaobai walked out of the office, he still felt apprehensive. He hurriedly hastened his footsteps, afraid that the detestable pervert would chase after him again.
"Another demon that covets This King's divine essence. Thankfully, This King ran fast!"
The more Shi Xiaobai thought about it, the more afraid he became. However, when he thought of how he had chosen a poker card that was greater than ten out of fifty-four poker cards, he was immediately amused.
"This King is indeed omnipotent! Isn't it just a matter of luck? When has This King ever been afraid!? "
While Shi Xiaobai was choosing the poker cards, he recalled the blind shot he had made during the ability test. Immediately, he felt that his luck was invincible, so without any hesitation, he randomly chose a card.
His intuition told him that the poker card was greater than ten.
"Strange, why does This King have the nagging feeling that the poker card is the 'Red Ghoul'?"
This strange thought flashed in Shi Xiaobai's mind, but it immediately dissipated.
"Heh heh, what's so strange about that? The card This King chose is obviously the 'Red Ghoul'!"
Shi Xiaobai accepted this self-explanation with a clear conscience.
