Chapter 1338 Final Chapter:  One!Part

Very soon, the nervous and restless 12 hours passed by again.

“Aboriginals, have you chosen the participant?”

God’s voice rang up once again.

“I’ll go!”

Mei Yazhi stepped forward.

“Headmaster, you mustn’t!”

“There are two more stages behind! Don’t be so rash!”

“That’s right! We’ll send another person to check out the situation and fight for more time!”

Jixia Academy’s great teachers immediately tried to persuade her.

“If I’m unwilling to sacrifice myself, what right do I have to ask others to do it? As for the two stages behind, there’s still Sun Mo!”

Mei Yazhi gestured for everyone to stop trying to persuade her.

This was a life and death battle. When facing death, anyone would feel horrified and scared. However, she didn’t blame them. She only wanted to use her death to awaken their battle will.

For this round, they’d definitely not be able to win if they didn’t put their lives on the line.

“Mother, don’t!” Mei Ziyu pulled Mei Yazhi’s hand. “I’ll go! I’ll go solve it!”

“You foolish child, will you be able to solve it?”

Mei Yazhi chuckled then patted Mei Ziyu’s head. “It’s a pity that I won’t be able to carry yours and Sun Mo’s child!”

Pa! Pa! Pa!

The Daybreak Starlord applauded. “As expected of Jixia Academy’s Headmaster Mei, you’re really responsible and courageous. For this round, we’ll be the ones to fight for time!”

The Daybreak Starlord looked toward Bai Xiqing. “I’ll go first!”

However, before the Daybreak Starlord stepped forth, a dark great teacher had darted out and dashed over to stand below the cube. “Starlord, let me do it. I, Wang Wu, will be repaying the favor of your recognition!”

“Sun Mo, I admire the revolutions you’ve introduced. Thank you for giving children like us who come from poor families a chance!”

This dark great teacher named Wang Wu clearly was unable to solve the Galactic Rubik’s Cube. The reason he went for it was just to fight for another 12 hours for them.

Three minutes into his attempt, his failure was declared.

Pa!

Wang Wu’s body shattered and he was devoured.

The atmosphere in the metallic hall was very tense because their time was exchanged with another person’s life. Hence, the great teachers stopped talking crap. They didn’t dare to waste the given time and were racking their brains to do the calculations.

Sun Mo was also trying hard to find a formula, but his mathematics results were too mediocre, so his progress was very slow.

Another 12 hours passed by again.

This time around, before that God spoke, two dark great teachers stood out.

“Teacher Li, I excel in matters concerning throwing my life away! Don’t fight with me over it!”

“To hell with that! You still owe me three rounds of drinks! If you die, who am I going to get the drinks from?”

“But if you were to die, I’d get to save the money for the drinks too!”

The two of them argued.

“That’s enough, since both of you want to die, you can just die together. You guys won’t be able to piece the Galactic Rubik’s Cube anyway. You’re just trying to drag out for more time!”

God sneered.

The two dark great teachers then shattered.

This time around, God didn’t give the two of them a chance to solve the cube and had eaten them directly.

“Don’t take me as a fool. From now onward, I’ll continue to perform a draw once every 12 hours, but with each time, the number of people will double!”

God’s announcement made everyone’s face turn pale.

What did that mean?

It’d be four people the next time, then eight, then 16, then 32…

There were 300 of them now. This meant that if they failed every time, they’d at most have six chances before they were wiped out. And 6 times would just be 72 hours, which was merely three days.

“I should tell you this. When this game first appeared in my world, it took one year and seven months before someone managed to solve it.”

God’s words were like the death god’s scythe, cutting down many people’s confidence, making them feel dejected and despair again.

Li Ziqi didn’t look up and continued to work hard in her calculations.

Another 12 hours passed by.

“We mustn’t let that God look down on us. Everyone, count me in for this time!”

A great teacher stood up.

“That’s right, confidence is what we from the Nine Provinces don’t lack!”

This was spoken by a dark great teacher.

“Eldest Martial Sister, solve this thing! F*ck its mom!”

Helian Beifang stood up as well. As Sun Mo’s personal disciple, he mustn’t cause him to lose face.

Xuanyuan Po didn’t say anything, but he stood up too.

“Why are you guys in so much of a rush? You guys can go after old people like us are all dead!”

The gaze of an old great teacher from the Heavenly Mystery Academy swept by everyone present. “Great teachers, why don’t we start from the oldest in age?”

“I concur!”

“I concur!”

“I concur!”

All the older great teachers walked out.

“Daybreak Starlord, don’t underestimate the great teachers from the Nine Greats. Everyone is scared of death, but if we must die, our brows won’t furrow either!”

An old man laughed and then looked toward Sun Mo. “Sect Lord Sun, it’s a pity that I won’t be able to see the new world that you create.”

“Flying aircrafts in the sky, trains running on the ground… I wonder what a majestic scene that would be!”

Pa pa pa!

As four consecutive sounds rang out, four great teachers were devoured.

“I suddenly realize that you aboriginals have admirable sides to you as well!”

God praised.

“We’re great teachers after all. Do you think that our thoughts and resolve are the same as ordinary people when we’ve managed to rise to high star-levels?”

The Daybreak Starlord rolled his eyes. “You want to scare us with death? I can only say that you’re too naive!”

“Haha, so what if I can’t scare you? You guys won’t even get to see my face if you can’t solve the problem!” God sneered. “Don’t forget, the next draw would be eight aboriginals!”

Everyone’s countenance instantly turned grim. Eight lives that belonged to high star-level great teachers, this was definitely a tremendous loss.

To helpless people, waiting was just a torment. It was like primary school students attending college entrance examinations. They wouldn’t even understand the questions, let alone being able to solve them.

Another 12 hours was going to be up soon.

An outstanding student from the Skyraise Academy stood up. “Why… why not let us students go fight for more time?”

Although he was scared, his rationale told him that he should make the sacrifice.

“That’s right. The first stage is already so difficult. We don’t know how things will be later on. The teachers should try to salvage the useful ones!”

A guy from Jixia Academy also spoke up.

Very soon, eight students were gathered.

Actually, this was the most rational method of ‘throwing away lives’. However, it was too tormenting for the great teachers to watch students die.

“Dang dang dang. Time’s up. Aboriginals, have you decided?”

God appeared.

Just as the eight students stood up and volunteered themselves, Bai Xiqing spoke up.

“All of you, scram back. We teachers aren’t dead yet. I’ll solve this stage!”

Bai Xiqing took a deep breath and walked toward the cube while joking with Sun Mo. “Idol, please watch my performance. If I succeed, will you have a meal with me?”

“Alright!” Sun Mo smiled. “It’ll be my treat!”

Bai Xiqing started her attempt to solve the Galactic Rubik’s Cube, and she seemed to be doing quite well. In the beginning, she was quite fast, but she gradually slowed down.

Half an hour later, she stopped completely and started to take more time to contemplate.

“How is it? Are you going to give up?

God mocked.

Bai Xiqing shook her head and turned back to look toward Sun Mo. “Idol, I won’t be able to have dinner with you anymore!”

Pa!

Bai Xiqing had just finished saying this when she was devoured.

Sun Mo’s fists clenched tightly.

“Alright, send out another seven people!”

God ordered.

“Why?” Mei Yazhi was anxious. “This time around, we did try to solve the problem. We aren’t trying to drag things out!”

“There’s no reason. It’s because I’m the judge and my word is what matters!”

God’s tone wasn’t just arrogant but also rude.

There was no reasoning with it and seven students shouted, “Eat us!”

Pa pa pa!

The great teachers who were close to them landed a hand chop on these students’ necks, knocking them out.

“Sect Lord Sun, you must kill this guy. Otherwise, I won’t be able to die in peace!”

“Headmaster Mei, it’s up to you guys now!”

“Ziyu, actually, I like you!”

Seven great teachers were eaten.

The atmosphere in the hall was extremely suppressing. It was because the next time, 16 of them would have to die.

Time never slowed down for anyone. Some of them even started to curse for that God to die a sudden death, but it still appeared punctually.

“My delicious aboriginals, are you done choosing?”

Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh!

This time around, more than half the people stood up.

Sun Mo and his personal disciples were amongst them.

“What are you up to?”

Helian Beifang tugged Lu Zhiruo and Xianyu Wei, not wanting them to add on to the chaos.

“Hey hey hey, why aren’t you pulling me back? Is my life not worth anything?”

Qin Yaoguang pursed her lips.

“I’m sorry, I only have two hands!”

Helian Beifang felt bad.

“You aboriginals from the Nine Provinces really have lofty morals. It makes me feel bad for eating you. But there’s no helping it, I have to survive too!”

God sighed. “Since you guys are all unafraid of death, then I’ll just randomly pick 16 snacks!”

“Hold on!”

Li Ziqi stood up, closed up the book in her hands, and then used it to pat off the dirt on her pants. “I’ll solve the stage!”

“Eldest Martial Sister, you’ve found the way to do it?”

Lu Zhiruo was very happy.

“Can you handle this?”

Tantai Yutang frowned. The Moonshadow Starlord was a secondary saint, but she had failed as well.

“This stage is actually testing one’s mathematical abilities.”

Li Ziqi explained, “This subject is dependent on one’s talent, and it can’t be made up with hard work. Although the secondary saints are very knowledgeable, their wisdom isn’t a good match for the problem. “As for me, when I was studying spirit runes programming with Teacher, I had already learned differentiation, functions, algebraic geometry…”

Sun Mo only knew about the foundations for these things, and he had channeled these theories into Li Ziqi’s brain through Soul Imprint.

He didn’t expect them to be useful here.

“Believe in Eldest Martial Sister!”

Lu Zhiruo wore a serious expression. “She’s the smartest person in the Nine Provinces other than Teacher!”

“Ziqi is smarter than I am.”

In terms of pure intelligence, Sun Mo wouldn’t be able to win against Li Ziqi. She was the number one in the Nine Provinces. No matter what she learned, she would be able to gain great achievements in that subject.

At this moment, Li Ziqi stood under the cube and started to piece it together.

Her action was very slow and as she moved the cube, she concurrently ascertained if her thoughts were right.

One hour passed by!

Two hours passed by!

Eight hours passed by!

Li Ziqi went into full concentration and used the entirety of her brain.

Everyone was very agitated. It was because the image on the Rubik’s Cube was gradually coming together.

Finally, when the 12 hours were almost up, Li Ziqi moved the last piece.

Buzz!

Brilliant light lit up above the Rubik’s Cube.

“Oh yeah! It’s a success!”

Lu Zhiruo cheered.

The other people also cheered excitedly.

They had cleared the first stage.

“Teacher!”

Li Ziqi turned back. Her face, which looked pale and weak from having depleted too much energy, was wearing a sweet smile.

“Ziqi, you are my pride!”

Sun Mo dashed over and wanted to support the little sunny egg, but in the next instant, her body shattered.
