Chapter 313: This King has a diamond, do you have applause?

Shi Xiaobai turned sideways and formed a fist as he went into a pose of punching it at any time.

Everyone was alarmed. This was because they had an impression that Shi Xiaobai was a swordsman with extremely profound swordsmanship.

And for Shi Xiaobai to suddenly pull out a short sword form the blond youth’s body and then use some unknown means to transform the short sword into a meshed punching glove, the series of preparations appeared as though it was for the upcoming punch.

“Could Shi Xiaobai be like the hero, One-Pun? He usually uses a sword but his true killer move is his punch?”

“Using his fist to attack the diamond monster? To tell the truth…I’m not optimistic about it.”

“Why doesn’t he use that sword strike that instantly killed the bloody figure? Is Shi Xiaobai’s punch even stronger than that single sword strike?”

“…”

The crowd broke out into discussion as they stared intently at Shi Xiaobai. They were probably looking forward to Shi Xiaobai’s punch giving everyone a pleasant surprise, but they were also worried that it would not be effective. The diamond monster’s physical defense was too exaggerated. What sort of punch was needed to even shake it?

The people who anticipated this the most were Mozzie, Kevin, and Mu Yuesheng. This was because they had seen Shi Xiaobai’s punch twice. First, it was during the four-person collective training when Shi Xiaobai punched through a steel wall. The other time was when Shi Xiaobai punched through the stadium’s walls during the battle exchange, appearing in a domineering fashion.

They knew that the power of Shi Xiaobai’s punch was extremely exaggerated, but they did not know how Shi Xiaobai produced such a punch. This was because in the two prior events, they had only seen the outcome of the punch, but not its process.

And at this moment, they could finally witness Shi Xiaobai using this punch. Furthermore, he had obtained Kevin’s superpower, [Price of Might], augmenting that punch. The trio did not even want to blink their eyes, afraid that they would miss the stunning scene.

And logically speaking, the more powerful a punch, the faster the fist was swung. Punches with explosive power usually were so fast that one couldn’t even see it with the naked eye.

Everyone stared with widened eyes, hoping to catch that instant when Shi Xiaobai punched out!

However, ten seconds quickly passed. Shi Xiaobai was still maintaining the pose of gathering his strength with his fist closed.

“Why is he not moving? Is he gathering strength?”

Some of the rookies felt their eyes hurting and could not help but complain.

At this moment, someone suddenly exclaimed, “No, Shi Xiaobai is moving! Look at his fist, isn’t it moving very subtly? It seems…it’s moving forward by a tiny bit?”

With this said, everyone looked seriously over. After quietly watching for more than ten seconds, they immediately noticed a detail they did not notice from before.

“It’s true. Shi Xiaobai’s fist is really moving…”

“It’s moving, but with my titanium divine eyes, I visually estimate Shi Xiaobai’s fist to be moving 0.001 millimeters per second.”

“Fuck, what the hell is that speed that’s slower than a snail’s crawl?”

“This must be a form of gathering strength right? But if this was something cookie-cutter, shouldn’t Shi Xiaobai suddenly punch out, causing everyone to fail to react in time? He is probably trying to paralyze our attention, so as to create a… Forget it, I can’t bullshit any further.”

“It can’t be? Then wouldn’t we need to constantly stare at Shi Xiaobai’s process of him punching? Fuck, my eyes are so sore. Where’s my Refresh eye drops?”

“…”

The rookies began cursing. They now felt that Shi Xiaobai was being naughty. In order to create the effect of a sudden strike, he had come up with this lame drama to create a false impression.

They could only continue waiting, waiting till the moment Shi Xiaobai was done with his games. They had to wait for that sudden and unexpected punch that struck out like lightning.

That punch was definitely going to be as fast as lightning with shocking power.

That was what everyone had on their minds.

However, a minute passed again.

The lightning punch did not appear as they expected, but Shi Xiaobai’s fist had at least succeeded in moving a few centimeters forward.

“No, I can’t take it any more. If I keep staring with full focus, my eyes will rot from soreness.”

“What is Shi Xiaobai actually doing? Does he really plan on using that turtle-speed punch to strike the diamond monster?”

“Don’t think too much about it. Shi Xiaobai must be pulling a trick on us. Wait and see. The moment you relax, he will suddenly punch out and give you a fright. I’ve been places. It’s cookie-cutter. I’ve seen plenty of cookie-cutter tricks of trying to create the mood.”

“Yea, I’m waiting. I want to see when Shi Xiaobai’s punch will strike out. Sigh, it’s really leaving me hanging.”

Some people had given up on staring intently at Shi Xiaobai. Seeing how Shi Xiaobai’s fist moved forward at a few centimeters per minute, they could only say, Bro, give us a quick one, can you?

There were others who stared even more intently, as though they were waiting for fireworks in great anticipation. If not, they were like gamers sticking to the game, bent on obtaining victory.

They all believed that Shi Xiaobai’s punch would be completed in an instant.

And that instant was a short moment in time. It would be even shorter than fireworks, brighter than meteors, something worth looking forward to more than the sunrise.

When exactly would this punch strike out in an instant?

Everyone waited.

Waiting and waiting.

Waiting till the flowers wilted.

Waiting till their eyes went blurry.

Waiting till their hair went white.

Waiting till the heavens aged.

Waiting till the earth wizened.

Waiting till the seas dried up.

Waiting till the stones crumbled.

Waiting till…

However, there was no blooming of fireworks, nor streaking of meteors. The sunrise didn’t even fucking appear. The sudden punch everyone was looking forward to did not appear at all!

Shi Xiaobai’s fist had undergone a long period of more than ten minutes, crossing over mountains and seas, experiencing a series of eighty-one tribulations before finally arriving in front of the diamond monster at a turtle’s pace.

With only a few centimeters left, his fist would finally be able to touch the diamond monster.

The rookies wiped the tears from the corners of their eyes. Some of them had stared for too long, so their eyes were sore. There were others who were crying from their infuriation.

“Fuck, if he weren’t Shi Xiaobai, I would have rushed up to beat him up. It’s been more than ten minutes. What are we waiting for?”

“Could it be that his punch will suddenly do something explosive at the final centimeter?”

“Don’t be silly. An explosive punch requires the support of an arm’s strength. Without a buffer distance, it’s impossible to produce the strength of the arm. I guess that Shi Xiaobai will suddenly retract his arm and then strike out again. But I want to say, was all that time waiting fucking fed to the dogs?”

“Sigh, I’m disheartened. I can’t hold out any more. Shi Xiaobai, quickly do your punch and sooth our hearts, can you?”

At this moment, there was nearly no one paying full attention to Shi Xiaobai. Even Mozzie and company had given up the idea of capturing the moment Shi Xiaobai punched out. It had been more than ten minutes. Their eyes were turning blind from fatigue.

They could not understand what Shi Xiaobai was doing.

Why did he create this cookie-cutter scene for more than ten minutes?

If the person who did so was not Shi Xiaobai, the person would have incurred public outrage.

However, from what Shi Xiaobai had done during the trials, it left everyone with no choice but to wait patiently.

Now, what they were waiting for was the moment Shi Xiaobai was done messing around or the moment he would stop being so ‘naughty’ that made them too deep for tears.

Just as everyone relaxed, Shi Xiaobai’s fist slowly and gently touched the diamond monster’s diamond body!

Shi Xiaobai’s Turtle-speed Divine Punch was finally completed after nearly twenty minutes!

This was the longest time Shi Xiaobai had spent gathering strength for the Turtle-speed Divine Punch. In the past, he could only gather strength for less than five minutes, because five minutes of Turtle-speed Divine Punch was the limit of what his arm could bear.

However, when Shi Xiaobai started charging Turtle-speed Divine Punch, he was shocked to discover that his right arm’s defense had reached unimaginable height.

Shi Xiaobai pondered for a moment before immediately realizing why. Back when the Absolute Choice punished him by sealing his right arm, ‘This Turtle Is Hardest’ was constantly in operation.

A seal that could make his right hand completely immobile was in effect equivalent to a near-infinite damage. During the twelve hours, ‘This Turtle Is Hardest’ was constantly converting the seal’s “damage” to enhance his right arm’s defense values.

As such, his right arm’s defense value had reached an unimaginable point!

It was practically the legendary Qilin’s arm!

This was probably how weal and woe depended on each other?

In short, Shi Xiaobai’s punch that gathered strength for twenty minutes was actually nowhere near the limit of what his right arm could bear. However, Shi Xiaobai felt that twenty minutes were already sufficient.

Five minutes of Turtle-speed Divine Punch had always been the strongest offensive technique Shi Xiaobai had. However, as it required too much time to gather strength, he had never had a chance to use it in actual battle.

As for every minute the Turtle-speed Divine Punch gathered strength with, the power increased by several times. What sort of concept was a twenty-minute Turtle-speed Divine Punch?

Even more crazy was how this punch was augmented by a Price of Might punching glove!

Even Shi Xiaobai was unsure how powerful this punch would be!

Therefore, the moment which everyone no longer looked forward to, but Shi Xiaobai himself anticipated for twenty minutes came!

His fist gently touched the diamond monster’s body!

A Turtle-speed Divine Punch at the heaven-defying level was completed!

“Boom!”

An explosion that nearly shattered eardrums boomed.

The crowd was given a scare. They nearly had a heart attack because of it as they immediately stared at the source of the explosion.

Then, they saw a stunning scene which made them exclaim ‘holy shit’.

The diamond monster was gone. It had shattered into diamond fragments on the ground.

The hill behind the diamond monster was gone. A hill that was dozens of meters high had been hit by the fist winds, which immediately leveled it!

The rookies stared dumbfounded and remained silent for a long while. Even Mozzie and company were confounded, much less Feng Yuanlin and others. Their mouths were so wide open that a few chicken eggs could be stuffed in them…

This punch had refreshed their view of the world.

Shi Xiaobai was very pleased with the outcome of this fist. After all, this was augmented by the Price of Might. Furthermore, it was the Turtle-speed Divine Punch that had gathered strength for twenty minutes. The power of that one punch leveling the hill was also within expectations.

Shi Xiaobai very calmly retracted his fist while everyone stared at him in a daze. He picked up a diamond fragment from the ground.

Although it was described as a diamond fragment, it was much bigger than any diamond rings on the market.

And these diamond fragments were plentiful. They blanketed the ground in a nearly uncountable spread.

Shi Xiaobai turned around to look at the crowd that was still in a daze. He waved the diamond in his hand and said with a grin, “This King has a diamond, do you have any applause?”
