Early morning on the day of the life-and-death battle between the three kings.
Shi Xiaobai awoke from his Cogitation and could not help but frown. For some reason, the effects of his Cogitation were surprisingly poor. He had always been accustomed to using Cogitation to replace sleep. In the past, he would always feel his Psionic Power increase significantly after Cogitation.
But ever since he came to the seventh level, Shi Xiaobai was surprised to realize that his Psionic Power did not increase at all after Cogitation. It was as though he was stuck at a bottleneck.
What the hell was going on?
Shi Xiaobai had yet to have a complete understanding of the Psionic Ability cultivation system. There was no other way about it. The moment he saw the dense text in the book, Shi Xiaobai felt his scalp tingle. He could not carry on reading any further.
Shi Xiaobai pondered for a moment and thought of many possibilities. However, he was unable to determine which one was correct. He could only temporarily put aside his doubts and plan on asking others when he had the chance in the future.
Shi Xiaobai stood up from his chair and stretched out his arms. He forcefully twisted his body.
Shi Xiaobai stretched his body that had turned stiff after sitting for an entire night. The crackling sounds were like firecrackers exploding. From the sound, one could tell that he was losing strength.
A smile suffused across Shi Xiaobai's lips.
In the past ten days or so, he had nearly completely digested the energy from the holy tree's fruit and the Celestial Jade, converting them into physical strength. The holy tree's fruit and the Celestial Jade had allowed his body to experience two huge leaps. It was equivalent to two terrifying metamorphoses.
Shi Xiaobai did not know how to measure his physical strength. In fact, he did not have a systematic understanding of the other world's methods of measuring physical strength. However, Shi Xiaobai knew that his physical strength had reached an extremely astonishing stage. At least to a rookie at the Psionic Mortal Realm, it was an unimaginable height.
This was all thanks to the superpower he suddenly possessed — the ability to treat almost any substance as food and extract its nutritional value to raise his physique.
Shi Xiaobai named this superpower — "Power of Taotie".
The Power of Taotie was extremely helpful to Shi Xiaobai at his present stage. His physical strength was only considered above average among rookies. Although his right arm was known as a Qilin's arm due to The Tortoise being the hardest, the other parts of his body were still relatively weak.
However, after eating the Transcendence fruit, under the effects of the Power of Taotie, the toughness of Shi Xiaobai's body had increased to a level where he could crush Moya and clash head-on with Leonis.
This was of course because the Transcendence fruit was considered a rare holy item. It was truly a great opportunity for Shi Xiaobai to eat the Transcendence fruit.
And at this moment in time, he had coincidentally eaten the Celestial Jade. Shi Xiaobai's physical toughness had risen to another level. Shi Xiaobai estimated that if he were to fight Leonis again, the person sent flying would not necessarily be him.
In fact, Shi Xiaobai was somewhat surprised by this. Logically speaking, this piece of Celestial Jade should be a holy item that trial-takers from alternate worlds would fight over. Furthermore, even the assessment program could not replicate the existence of the real thing. Why was the real Celestial Jade still in existence after thousands of years? Furthermore, why was he able to eat it so easily?
It was as if, as if, as if, as if, as if, as if, purposely delivered it to his mouth?
Although Shi Xiaobai was puzzled, he accepted such benefits with a clear conscience.
In his boredom, Shi Xiaobai even gave his physical toughness a new name. He named his body 'Body of the Heretic King'.
Due to the two metamorphoses of the Transcendence fruit and the Celestial Jade, his physical toughness had reached the third level of the Body of the Heretic King!
Shi Xiaobai sensed the energy that flowed through his body like blood. This abundant energy filled him with confidence, to the point of 'inflating'. The third level of the Body of the Heretic King made him not worried about the life-and-death battle between the three kings.
The sounds of Shi Xiaobai twisting his body echoed in the dormitory.
A languid and charming voice resounded at this moment.
"Darling has sat in that cold chair for an entire night again. It really makes my heart ache. It's only daybreak, so why don't Darling go back to bed and sleep? This bed is fragrant and warm. I guarantee that Darling will feel very comfortable. "
The Infernal Queen lifted the blanket slightly. In the shadows, her beautiful body was faintly discernible. From close, he could even smell the alluring body fragrance emanating from the bed.
Shi Xiaobai was already accustomed to such teasing and seduction. Although a warm bed was extremely tempting to him, he would rather sit on a cold and hard chair than lie in it. This was because Shi Xiaobai knew that it was very likely not a bed, but a grave.
Shi Xiaobai hesitated for a moment before saying, "Don't sleep. Get up and play one last game with This King."
The Infernal Queen was slightly surprised as she asked in puzzlement, "Darling, why do you say it is the last game?"
Shi Xiaobai shook his head and said, "I don't know, but intuition tells This King that this will be the last game between us."
When the Infernal Queen heard this, she immediately sat up. The blanket slid down to her waist. Under her translucent pajamas, her impressive upper body was faintly discernible. The Infernal Queen said with a coquettish tone, "Darling's intuition is probably problematic. Quickly set up two boards. I want to play two games with Darling at once!"
.....
The Infernal Queen had successfully destroyed Shi Xiaobai's intuition. The two of them were multitasking. Their left hands played Go while their right hands played Chinese chess. Furthermore, there was a rule that every move could only be thought for three seconds. In a very short period of time, they had played two games simultaneously.
If anyone else were to see this scene, they would probably be dumbfounded. The two of them were playing two games at the same time, but the speed at which they played was so fast that it was dazzling. It was as though they were deliberately competing in terms of speed. Almost the moment one of them placed his piece, the other had already placed his piece.
However, even with such a short time to think and the need to multitask, every move of the duo was close to perfection. They did not leave behind any flaws. Even if there were flaws, they would be able to reverse the disadvantage in the subsequent moves.
Therefore, the final outcome of the two games was still a draw.
The Infernal Queen said faintly, "One more game. If I can't beat Darling, I won't be able to eat or sleep in peace."
Shi Xiaobai said with a chuckle, "No more. Even if we play another hundred games, there probably won't be a victor. You and I have played countless games over the past ten days, but no one has won. This is no longer a coincidence. Furthermore, This King will be setting off soon. "
The Infernal Queen lowered her head slightly and said softly, "I won't be following the life-and-death battle between the three kings."
Shi Xiaobai was slightly taken aback as he asked curiously, "Why?"
The Infernal Queen gave Shi Xiaobai a serious glance and said softly, "Because this battle will be a tough battle for Darling. If I were to watch by the side and see Darling injured, I might not be able to help but intervene. My heart aches for Darling."
Shi Xiaobai was surprised. Ignoring the sincerity in the Infernal Queen's words, what sort of twisted logic was it to turn a blind eye to him being afraid that he would not be able to control himself from being injured?
Shi Xiaobai did not mind if the Infernal Queen was going to watch the battle. He did not harp on the topic and said with a nod, "Alright, This King will be leaving."
"Goodbye."
