Chapter 219: Chapter 124 The Last Gentleman_2

The Trial Taker cannot touch the opponent’s ball, nor can they use the club to touch the opponent’s ball, but there is no rule saying their own ball cannot touch the opponent’s ball.

But how could Shu Wei ever imagine that Li Xiu would use such a method?

Trying to hit his ball in mid-air is much harder than sinking the ball into the hole.

After all, the hole is stationary and cannot move, but his ball is flying rapidly in the air, and Li Xiu’s tool is a club, not a gun. Almost simultaneously, the balls take flight; how could he predict the trajectory of his golf ball? It’s simply impossible.

Moreover, Shu Wei did not anticipate that Li Xiu would use such a mutually destructive approach.

Yet, when he saw the two balls collide, his ball fell into the sea, while Li Xiu’s ball, incredibly, changed direction to fly towards the platform where the hole was, his contorted face filled with disbelief.

"Impossible... impossible..."

Bang! Clang!

Shu Wei’s ball plunged into the sea, while Li Xiu’s ball fell into the hole on the platform.

"I’ll kill you..." Shu Wei charged at Li Xiu in anger, but when he was in mid-air, the Ring of Trial blew his body to pieces, spraying blood and flesh everywhere.

"Life and death follow the Celestial Mandate." Li Xiu didn’t even glance back, simply stepping off the platform, heading towards the platform where the hole was.

If someone were watching here, they might never imagine Shu Wei losing this way, losing in such a stifling and suffocating manner.

In the following holes, Li Xiu sank every ball with a steady single stroke, never considering striking twice mid-course.

The first seventeen holes were all holes-in-one, and Li Xiu reached the end of the narrow path, and in front was the mountain peak.

After a careful observation, Li Xiu’s expression turned a bit peculiar; the eighteenth hole was actually at the summit of this peak.

To be precise, the mountain’s crater was the eighteenth hole, because it was a volcano, with the smoking crater as the hole.

This hole was very large, but the mountain was a thousand meters high, and even with Li Xiu’s current strength, it was impossible to hit a ball to a height of a thousand meters in one stroke.

On flat ground, the ball can glide through the air, but the vertical striking height can’t match the distance of hitting from flat ground.

Fortunately, this was a five-stroke hole.

Li Xiu looked at the steep mountain wall; although not ninety degrees, it was still sixty to seventy degrees and very smooth. If the ball landed there, it was nearly impossible for it not to roll down.

After careful observation, Li Xiu swung his club, sending the ball towards the mountain wall.

The ball landed on the mountain wall, spinning quickly on a protrusion that could just accommodate a ball, appearing as if it might fall at any moment.

But the ball didn’t fall, finally stopping and resting stably on the spot.

Li Xiu climbed up the mountain wall with his hands and feet, finding a position to hit the ball again.

On the third stroke, Li Xiu hit the ball directly towards the volcano’s crater, where it curved and fell into the crater.

Rumble!

A massive eruption of smoke spewed from the crater, followed by scarlet lava; the volcano had erupted.

Li Xiu turned and ran down the mountain, unleashing all kinds of skills in a frenzy, using every ounce of strength he had.

Yet the light screen didn’t appear, which meant the trial wasn’t over, and Li Xiu couldn’t leave, so he had no choice but to run feverishly.

Lava gushed from the crater, hot waves surged at his back, and patches of dark red lava fell from the sky, with black smoke covering the heavens.

Li Xiu could only be thankful that he had truly become a Trial Taker; the Fire Lotus Sword and Dark Mirror were no longer burdens. Otherwise, death would be certain.

Thankfully, the lava rushed into the sea and immediately cooled, but it caused the sea water to produce scalding steam. Li Xiu felt as if he was a crab in a steamer, his skin turning red from the heat.

Run! Desperately run without looking back, occasionally dodging the falling lava clumps until Li Xiu felt the heat behind him ease. He glanced back to find the lava had covered half of the narrow path, halted by the cooling seawater, preventing it from going further.

Finally, the light screen appeared: "Congratulations on completing the A-grade trial, rewards are being randomly generated... You can choose two types of rewards..."

In a moment, four icons appeared on the light screen: Talent, Attribute, Demon Core, and Entry Ticket.

Without hesitation, Li Xiu chose Attribute and Entry Ticket. The stinging pain from the bracelet and the energy surging within made Li Xiu feel an outrageously pleasurable sensation.

The A-grade Attribute Reward increased his Primordial Embryo Quality from 1 to 1.1, and Li Xiu calculated that at this rate, he only needed to participate in ten A-grade trials to reach the limit of 2 and be promoted to a D-grade Trial Taker.

The green Entry Ticket projected in front of Li Xiu transformed into a green vortex and sucked him in.

The Copper Lamp and stone table reappeared, but still no Metal Coffin—only a green hat lying quietly there.

"This..." Li Xiu looked at the green hat with a complex expression.

The hat’s design was an old-fashioned gentleman’s hat, with a dark green top and brim, a grassy green band decorating the middle. To be honest, the hat’s color scheme and design were quite nice.

To take it or not? It seemed a bit inauspicious, but not taking it after risking so much to complete the trial felt like a loss.
