In the auditorium.
Riko saw that Mozzie and Kevin's expressions were extremely 'interesting'. She was extremely excited but also in disbelief. Mozzie even pinched her tender cheeks, afraid that she was dreaming.
Riko smiled. She understood the duo's feelings very well.
She was the same. She never expected a miracle to happen. The final victor of the conference was the weak Gaia!
She was still thinking about how to console Mozzie and Kevin after the failure of the conference, but they had won the conference!
"We won. It's not a dream. The collective training spot is yours, and it's still yours!"
Riko announced the result with certainty to the duo who were still in disbelief.
Kevin abruptly raised his head and clenched his trembling right hand tightly. The corners of his mouth were slightly open. He had wanted to let out a loud roar to vent the tension he had been suppressing earlier, but when he realized that the occasion was not right, he swallowed it down.
Victory!
He could participate in the collective training!
Heavens, was this really not a dream?
"Oh yeah — awesome. I can fight alongside Lord Shi Xiaobai and company again." Mozzie held Riko's hand as she happily jumped up and down. A brilliant smile bloomed on her face. Compared to Kevin, it was easier for her to accept such a shocking fact. After all, she was once a heartless fat chick, so she had a carefree heart compared to others.
Kevin looked at Mozzie's adorable and joyful look and was immediately infected. A smile slowly suffused on his stiff face. He had not been this happy in a long time. He even had the urge to cry tears of joy. It had been a long time since he had experienced such a feeling of accomplishment that made his blood boil.
He had once been disappointed by the mocking and doubting voices of the crowd. He had even nearly lost the courage to vie for the spot and had the cowardly thought of giving up. But at that moment, Yama Minamiya had patted him on the shoulder and said — "Child, the collective training spot is what you deserve. The present you definitely has the right to enjoy this right, and you definitely have the ability to shoulder this responsibility. So don't be discouraged or disappointed. Bravely strive for it. Bravely prove yourself!"
Following that, Yama Minamiya stood forward and stood in front of them. He withstood the criticism of the crowd and argued for their collective training spots. This rekindled his hope of participating in the group training!
He did not give up, and he would never give up. Even if he felt hopeless about his chances of getting a spot, he did not want to disappoint the great minister who stood in front of him.
No amount of words could express his gratitude towards Division Minister Minamiya. At that moment, he felt from the bottom of his heart that being a member of Gaia was something worth rejoicing over.
Kevin slowly raised his head and felt that his eyes were sore. If he didn't raise his head, he felt as if something strange would fall out of his eyes. He used to think that he was a genius, but later he realized that he was just a frog at the bottom of a well. After seeing the soaring eagle, he suddenly came to his senses and climbed out of the well with great difficulty. He realized that the world was so vast and the sky was so boundless. He wanted to go far away, he wanted to fly high, but he was shocked to find that he was surrounded by a muddy pool and he did not have wings on his back.
A small boat suddenly descended from the sky and appeared under his feet.
Countless toads coveted the boat, while countless swans believed that he was unworthy of traveling far. They mocked and cursed at him before 'advising' him to scram back to the bottom of the well that belonged to him.
The world at the bottom of the well was not necessarily bad. At the very least, it was warmer and safer than the ice-cold quagmire.
For an instant, he had such a thought.
But in the end, he only bid his final farewell to the desolate well.
It was because the quagmire had a lotus flower that was untainted by the mud, and also because he wanted to see it. He yearned, yearned to see it with his own eyes, even if it was just a glance, the scenery in the eyes of the eagle.
"Eh? You're crying. Kevin, you're actually crying! "The heartless Mozzie suddenly pointed at Kevin and exclaimed.
Kevin's face immediately blushed as he reached out to wipe the corners of his eyes. He hurriedly said, "It's just sand in my eyes!"
Mozzie curled her lips and said, "If you're crying tears of joy, so be it. Why malign sand!?"
Kevin's face immediately blushed even more. He opened his mouth and was about to 'forcefully explain'.
Suddenly, with a "deng —", a horrified cry suddenly sounded, giving Kevin a fright.
"Shi … Shi … Xiaobai has entered the eighth … eighth level!" A reporter in a suit, who was squatting in front of the stone monument, suddenly jumped up from his stool. He stared at the trial tower's stone monument and shouted in excitement.
Riko and company were first alarmed before they reacted. They hurriedly turned their heads to look at the trial stone monument in the middle of the auditorium.
On the trial stone monument's surface, the three words' Shi Xiaobai 'seemed to be plated with a layer of gold. It shimmered with a resplendent glow, and at this moment, it was located on the eighth level of the stone monument's surface!
"My … My Heavens!" Kevin drew a gasp as he was filled with shock. If it was possible, he wanted to leave a wave of "666" on the book reviews.
"Too cool, Lord Shi Xiaobai is too cool!" Mozzie jumped up happily. She was even happier than when she heard that she had obtained a spot for the collective training.
Riko gulped as she stared at the trial tower's stone monument with her mouth agape. From the Rookie Evaluation Test to now, the little pervert had always created all sorts of miracles. He had always surprised and frightened her, but she never expected … it was even more exaggerated this time. He had actually reached the eighth level that only three great figures in history had ever reached.
The reporter glanced at Riko and company and realized that he had let the cat out of the bag. He hurriedly covered his mouth, and after confirming that Riko and company were not in the same industry, he heaved a sigh of relief.
That was close, that was close! Thankfully, they were not in the same industry, or else this explosive news would have been 'shared'.
The reporter recalled the horror of being dominated by the veterans in the same industry. He could not calm his heart for a long time. It was all because his mouth was too soft, and it was too easy for others to get close to him. Every time he found a piece of big news, he would be tricked by others and let it slip. As a result, over the years, the explosive news that he had waited for with great difficulty rarely became first-hand exclusives. In the end, the exclusive news that was reported to the President were all obscure news, causing him to be scolded quite a bit.
Hence, no matter what, he had to guard his news, oh no, his mouth.
He looked around and confirmed that the others in the same industry were resting. He was the first and only reporter to learn of the news. Immediately, he was secretly delighted and excited. He hurriedly took out his cell phone and made a call!
