Absolute Choice 8 Read online

  As long as he pushed himself to the limits, he could go beyond his limits!

  This obviously needed the talent of a genius, but there was an even greater need for a stubbornness of a fool and the courage of a madman!

  The golden light that gradually forced the black shadow into a corner, Pulp Farmer's eyes glazed over as he muttered to himself, "That...is a true genius!"

  The situation was reversed. This time, Moya was forced into a despairing situation, but Moya, who only had his killing instincts left, had no way to undergo growth in such an adverse situation. The only thing he could do was struggle and desperately fight back!

  Gradually, amid colliding sounds and explosions, there were angry hisses and screams mixed in.

  The Transcendents slowly sat down as their faces turned solemn. Their moods were heavy. The battle was still ongoing, but everyone could tell that up to this point, it was equivalent to it coming to an end.

  Humans appeared to be a race that could create miracles.

  However, the Transcendents were always a race that rejected the thought of miracles.

  Therefore, for Moya, once he was surpassed, there was no more miracle!

  "Boom!"

  A final deafening explosion resounded like the blooming of fireworks. Dust filled the sky as the black shadow and golden figure finally came to a stop.

  When the explosive sounds subsided, the sound of light breathing was the only thing left.

  After the dust dissipated, one could see Moya having reverted to his original state. At this moment, he was an ugly green-skinned dwarf. His eyes were rolled back and his body was covered in injuries. He sprawled motionlessly on the ground, having already lost consciousness, losing all ability to continue doing battle.

  And the youth standing beside Moya was silent. His clothes were somewhat disheveled, but he was nearly without any injury. His chest was slightly undulating as his light but slow breaths made it seem like he had just done a warm-up jog.

  A human had won.

  Furthermore, it was most ridiculous that after using all his strength while embroiled with a fight with Moya for about ten minutes, he was only slightly out of breath.

  "Humans are monsters."

  At that moment, this thought materialized in the minds of the Transcendents.

  At this moment, Shi Xiaobai raised his head and looked at his surroundings. A sneer suffused across his lips as he loudly proclaimed, "Transcendents are just this and nothing more!"

  "Transcendents are just this and nothing more!"

  "Transcendents are just this and nothing more!"

  Shi Xiaobai repeated the important things thrice, and he shouted louder each time he said it!

  Shi Xiaobai would not forget the scene of how the Transcendents had been shouting 'Humans are just this and nothing more' just a moment ago. He was not someone who would bear a grudge, but if he kept it in, it would be too slavish. Therefore, Shi Xiaobai would seek revenge on the spot if there were any!

  At that moment, silence pervaded the stadium. The Transcendents were appalled!

  That human was too arrogant and crazy!

  "Whoever offends the mighty Transcendents, however strong, shall be destroyed!"

  "Human, don't be overly arrogant. Don't forget where you are!"

  "A tiny competition has been escalated to the magnificence of a race? Are all humans as dumb as pigs, like you?"

  Shi Xiaobai sneered without a word. The Transcendents were indeed conceited. It was as though they had forgotten how they had just been shouting 'Humans are just this and nothing more' and how the humans felt.

  Sure enough, this race was one he hated regardless of anything.

  At that moment, an authoritative voice thundered, overshadowing the din.

  "Human, Moya does not represent the Transcendents. It wouldn't be too late for you to say it only after you defeat This King!"

  In the throne of the defending champion, King Leonis stood up. He was dressed in regal robes and had an air of dignity. He looked very domineering.

  Leonis was overjoyed. The development of the situation was practically the heavens helping him. All eight Bravehearts were defeated in battle, with even Moya defeated as well. As such, the force that slightly threatened his position as king had collapsed.

  And at this moment, with the human being so overbearing, the only person that could stand up for the Transcendents was him alone, the strongest Transcendent!

  Next, all he needed to do was trash the human at the final match tomorrow and he would become a hero of the Transcendents. Any negative opinions of him being a bastard child of the lion-headed species and the Transcendents would be useless!

  This was an opportunity the heavens had given him!

  At this moment, the Transcendents realized it too.

  That's right, they still had King Leonis, who was stronger than Moya!

  Although Leonis was a hybrid child of the Transcendents and a member of the lion-headed species, he still could represent the Transcendents!

  "Foolish human, defeat our king before you are so overbearing!"

  "King Leonis, if you can trample that arrogant human beneath your feet, we will worship you as king for the rest of our lives!"

  "The race of the Transcendents is the strongest race in the world!

  "King Leonis completely trashes Moya. Human, you don't stand a chance winning against King Leonis!"

  It was as if the Transcendents had found a ray of light while in a cave, pointing them in the same direction!

  Leonis was very pleased with the present situation. He was laughing maniacally in his heart, but he said with a deadpan expression, "Human, although you did not sign up for the Braveheart Martial Arts Tournament and by joining in the battle midway is not permissible by the rules, the Braveheart Martial Arts Tournament welcomes all Bravehearts with sufficient strength. Since you were able to defeat Moya, you are the Braveheart most qualified to challenge This King! This King hereby allows you to fight This King in tomorrow's final! When the time comes, This King will let you know that the race of the Transcendents is the strongest race in the world!"

  With this said, the Transcendents immediately began to chant Leonis's name.

  Tomorrow, Leonis would prove that the race of the Transcendents was the strongest race in the world. Although they could not wait for it to happen, they had to wait for tomorrow patiently. After all, the human had just finished an intense battle. They did not wish for the human to use the depletion of his stamina as an excuse after suffering an abject defeat!

  Hearing the yelling of the audience, Shi Xiaobai's face darkened.

  In the first place, he had been strangely incensed because of Moya's fatal kick, thus his sudden appearance. He did not do it for the purpose of participating in the tournament.

  Even though he could challenge Leonis, he would have chosen to give up because he did not want to gain the recognition of the assessment program by becoming 'tournament champion'. He wanted to create a fifth story that belonged to him!

  But at this moment in time, Shi Xiaobai could not tolerate any further!

  Transcendents, since all of you are so arrogant and defiant!

  This King will let you know that no race in the world is the strongest!

  At least, you, the Transcendents are definitely not!

  Shi Xiaobai raised his head and took a deep breath. Using a voice that drowned out everyone's voice, he roared angrily, "Fuck tomorrow! Get your ass down here for This King right now!"

  Chapter358 In front of the Door of the Bravehearts, the meeting of girls

  The world of the Nine Revolutions Transcendental Tower's seventh level was no ordinary world. It was a replication of the history of a world on a different plane of existence. The rules and civilization had once existed before. It was an imaginary world, but it was something real in the past.

  And in this worl
d, Bravehearts and Infernal King were two terms that were commonly mentioned.

  The Infernal King lived in the Infernal domain. He seldom appeared nor did he have ambitions for world domination. However, the moment he appeared, it also meant misery to the world!

  Although he did not have ambitions of destroying the world, he had to kill in order to satisfy his instinctive desires. It was just like how ordinary living creatures had to eat, the Infernal King needed to kill to satisfy himself.

  Therefore, the world outside the Infernal domain was the Infernal King's farm. It reared countless creatures that was for him to slaughter at any time.

  Intelligent life obviously could not tolerate the fear of being slaughtered at any moment, thus Bravehearts were born!

  By entering the Infernal realm to kill the Infernal King, this was the reason behind the birth of Bravehearts and the meaning behind their existence!

  But since time immemorial, countless Bravehearts that entered the Infernal domain never returned. The Infernal King continued the slaughter of other cities every month. Nothing changed for the Bravehearts failed to complete their mission!

  And gradually there was a change in the nature of Bravehearts. They forgot the original goal of their birth—no Braveheart was willing to sacrifice their lives by stepping into the Infernal domain!

  Bravehearts became more of an honorary title, a means of self-deception. The people of the world could only pray that when their tribe or city was chosen by the Infernal King as the target for slaughter, the Bravehearts would be able to step forward and stand up against all odds to defend them.

  Even the Transcendents who acclaimed to be the strongest race no longer sent Bravehearts to the Infernal realm because it was simply sending them to their deaths!

  Therefore, the sole entrance to the Infernal domain that was labeled the 'Door of the Bravehearts' was already deserted and run-down.

  In the past, this narrow entrance would have countless Bravehearts as well as their guardians would liven this place. They would bid farewell to the Bravehearts before they entered the Infernal domain. But now, no one stepped foot here. Only a few curious and bold tourists would visit this legendary and intriguing spot.

  However, there was a person quietly sitting in a pavilion in front of the Door of the Bravehearts, as though the person was waiting for something.

  The person was a beautiful azure-dressed girl. She had a silver sword by her waist, but she held a pure white sword in her right hand. She quietly sat in the desolate and bleak pavilion, adding a beautiful touch to the dilapidated scene.

  The azure-dressed girl faced the world and remained expressionless. Her eyes looked somewhat dull.

  The girl had been waiting in the pavilion for quite a long while, but she remained extremely patient. However, this narrow and dangerous path that wasn't far from the Infernal domain was a spot nearly no one would step into. Even a mosquito would not easily fly here.

  In this silent and desolate place, to the point of the sound of winds appearing bleak, she waited alone, exuding a sense of loneliness.

  However, the girl did not seem to feel lonely, or it could be said that she was accustomed to loneliness.

  However, this quiet loneliness appeared to be destroyed very soon. Because far in the distance, a figure had suddenly appeared. The figure was slowly heading in her direction.

  The azure-dressed girl looked up slowly, a glimmer of light in her glazed eyes, but she did not move forward or get up. She only waited patiently as the distant figure approached through the fuzzy fog, until she managed to discern the figure's appearance.

  The person who came was a girl. She was petite and she wore a white school uniform and a black short skirt. She carried a cute pink-colored backpack, like she was a student from some school. She had silver hair and amber eyes. She wore a pair of black thick-framed glasses. Her skin was fair and she had delicate facial features.

  She was a pure and lovely girl, but she was not the person the azure-dressed girl was waiting for.

  The azure-dressed girl lowered her head once again.

  The silver-haired girl also noticed the azure-dressed girl sitting in the pavilion. Her eyes lit up as she quickened her pace. Soon, she came to the pavilion and sat across the azure-dressed girl.

  The silver-haired girl took out a board from her backpack and pulled out an oil-based pen from the board before writing on it. Her actions looked like she was well-practiced in this.

  "Hello, Sis Sunless. I've always wanted to meet you. I've finally met you. I'm very happy. Hehe!"

  The silver-haired girl's eyes lit up as she rapped the stone table gently. She raised the board and those were the words written on the board. She even drew a cute emoticon at the end. However, the girl's words were a messy scrawls and her drawing skill was not something worth complimenting.

  Sunless looked up and nodded. She whispered, "Hello."

  She was extremely bad at communicating with strangers, but she easily guessed the identity of the silver-haired girl. Therefore, she responded with a greeting. As for her asking something or to tease the girl's poor calligraphy and drawing, that was impossible.

  However, the silver-haired girl appeared rather amiable. She was not affected by Sunless's 'loftiness'. She beamed and wiped the words from her board and wrote: "Sis Sunless, why are you here? I don't think you were a person who would choose to kill the Infernal King!"

  Sunless softly replied, "Waiting for someone."

  The reason why she was waiting here was naturally because of Shi Xiaobai. Back when she left the fifth level, Shi Xiaobai had previously asked her to wait for him at the seventh level. Sunless believed that Shi Xiaobai definitely had the ability to reach the seventh level to live up to his word.

  And among the four methods to clear the seventh level, Sunless pondered over it and believed that with Shi Xiaobai's character, it was most likely that he would choose to kill the Infernal King. Therefore, she had waited by the Door of the Bravehearts.

  As for whether this waiting that lacked a proper premise was a waste of time, or if it would affect her chances of clearing the level, Sunless did not put it to heart. None of these were considered important to her.

  The silver-haired girl clearly had a gossipy heart as she immediately wrote, "Who are you waiting for!?"

  Sunless fell silent and did not feel like answering this question. This was because she had already realized that if she answered this seemingly talkative girl, even more questions would certain follow.

  If that was the case, it was too troublesome.

  "What about you?"

  In a rare instance, Sunless responded with a question. Firstly, it was to change the subject and, secondly, she was also curious as to why the silver-haired girl came to the Door of the Bravehearts.

  The silver-haired girl was a little silly, but she was no fool. She was aware that Sunless did not want to answer her, so she did not insist. Upon listening to Sunless's question, she immediately wrote on the board with a smile.

  Chapter359 Transforming without a word

  The silver-haired girl's talkative vibe began revealing itself as she wrote and erased on the board several times. She used a relatively complicated way to describe why she had chosen to come to the Door of the Bravehearts.

  "I was planning on trying to see if I could replicate what the Hero King did, but who knew I encountered an irritating fella on the way. From a young age, that irritating fella believes that he would be able to surpass the Hero King, so I benevolently gave him the chance."

  "As for the Braveheart Martial Arts Tournament, that just sounds boring. Furthermore, previous trial-takers all claim that the Transcendents as a race are extremely disparaging, so I didn't plan on going to suffer."

  "Surviving a hundred days is too tiring, so after some thought, there's only the method of killing the Infernal King left. I never expected t
o meet Sis Sunless here. I'm really lucky!"

  Sunless patiently read the silver-haired girl's words and confirmed the girl's identity. Obviously, she would not express any opinion or reveal any emotions to what the silver-haired girl depicted, as such, she only faced her in silence.

  The conversation came to an abrupt end.

  The silver-haired girl raised her spectacle frame. It was naturally easy for her to find a new topic of conversation, but seeing how Sunless apparently did not like to chat, she decided to write on the board: "I thought of something. I'm waiting for someone as well. I received his help in the second level, and haven't even thanked him. With his strength, it wouldn't be a problem reaching the seventh level. With his attitude, he would likely choose to kill the Infernal King. So, I'll be waiting in the pavilion as well. Sis Sunless, you wouldn't mind me, right? I promise that I wouldn't bother you!"

  Sunless nodded. She did not mind the silver-haired girl’s waiting in the pavilion.

  The silver-haired girl smiled. Waiting for someone was naturally just an excuse. She only felt that waiting alone in the desolate pavilion was too lonely and planned on staying behind to accompany her. She also wanted to see who Sunless was waiting for.

  The girl's Soul of Gossip was still burning.

  ...

  ...

  Transcendence, Martial Tournament Stadium

  Shi Xiaobai's voice was still echoing.

  "Fuck tomorrow! Get your ass down here for This King right now!"

  With him saying that, every Transcendent was left dazed for a moment. They first suspected if they had heard wrongly before looking at each other to realize that they had not, immediately becoming appalled.

  The arrogance this youth had was already undoubtable. But only at this point in time did they realize that they had far underestimated the youth's degree of arrogance!

  Fuck tomorrow?

  Although the youth was only slightly out of breath after defeating Moya, no one believed that he still had much stamina left after fighting full strength against Moya for more than ten minutes, breaking his limits in the process.
