Huang Xiaolong’s answer card was displayed for everyone to see.
The host personally checked it over several times…
Damn, there’s not a single issue!
Everything is correct!
“How… How… How is this possible?” The host’s face expressed incredulity, as though he had just seen a ghost.
“Did he really pass? How did he do that?” This time, Cui Feiyan was genuinely shocked.
The stage was enveloped in an uproar.
“Hehe, so what’s the prize for the third round?” Huang Xiaolong asked excitedly, rubbing his hands together.
The eyes of several staff members turned to the host.
The host’s forehead was beaded with cold sweat the size of soybeans, his gaze becoming anxious and gloomy.
Truthfully, this prize-awarding event organized by the Golden Charm Memory Training Institute was just pulled out as a ploy.
They had carefully calculated the costs. The prizes for the first and second rounds of the memory game were not too valuable and could be freely given away as a part of their promotional expenses.
But the prize for the third round was quite valuable. They didn’t anticipate that someone would actually pass the third round.
The situation now was a bit difficult to handle!
“You guys aren’t planning on backing out, are you?” Huang Xiaolong asked, worrying.
Immediately, a chant started from the crowd under the stage.
“Give him his prize.” The host gritted his teeth and ordered the staff members.
After saying this, he walked to a corner of the stage, nervously took out his smartphone, and dialed a number.
The third round prize was distributed- A Nikon D810 high-end SLR camera!
An iPhone7plus!
A set of luxury Lancome makeup products from France!
A Chanel Coco Mademoiselle perfume!
A Longines Master Collection men’s automatic mechanical watch!
A new LV handbag!
A Philips electric shaver!
A Chow Tai Fook 20g platinum necklace!
The value of all these prizes probably already exceeds 100,000 yuan!
Amid the countless envious, jealous, and hateful gazes from the crowd, Huang Xiaolong ran to the edge of the stage and gave all the prizes to Cui Feiyan for safekeeping.
Cui Feiyan mechanically accepted the prizes, looked up at Huang Xiaolong, and felt a strange sensation surge in her heart.
She suddenly realized that this seemingly rustic, shameless, and utterly insolent peasant was not as simple as he appeared to be, and he exuded an aura of profound mystery.
Huang Xiaolong ran back to the center of the stage and smilingly asked the host, “I want to play the fourth round.”
The prizes for the third round were already so terrifying. If he was to pass the fourth round, wouldn’t that be heaven-defying?
As the value of the prizes kept increasing, the spectators around the stage grew more and more tense, and the atmosphere became heavy.
“Well…my friend… please… please wait a moment…” The host pulled out a handkerchief and wiped the cold sweat on his forehead. “Heh, the weather is quite hot.”
“Keep calm, and you won’t feel hot.” Huang Xiaolong chuckled.
‘Damn! Stay calm my ass! This bumpkin is disrupting our event! Damn it!’ The host was cursing in his heart.
“Well… friend, according to the rules, after successfully passing three rounds consecutively, for the fourth round, our president, President Ma, from Golden Charm Memory Training Institute, will come to the scene…” The host carefully chose his words. “Which means, if you want to pass the fourth round, you have to… have to challenge our President Ma directly… ‘
“Oh, got it. Does PK mean a one-on-one battle? I like PKs the most!” Huang Xiaolong was thrilled. “So where is your President Ma?”
“Ahem… no rush, President Ma will be here soon.” The male MC had already called Ma Tianxiao, the CEO of the Golden Charm Memory Training Institution near here, asking him to come quickly and handle this unexpected situation.
“Alright, I’ll wait for him.” Huang Xiaolong greedily looked at the remaining prizes on the stage. “If I win a contest against your President Ma, will all these prizes be mine?”
“In theory, yes,” the male MC answered, looking quite annoyed at Huang Xiaolong.
Underneath the stage, a thought suddenly passed through Cui Feiyan… ‘Ma Tianxiao… founder of Golden Charm Memory Training Institution, has participated in Memory Championships in Asia. His best result is said to have been runner-up… He is somewhat notorious in Binhai. He was hailed as a prodigy from a young age, has both skill and connections, has made it big, and his personal wealth exceeds tens of millions. He certainly can be called top-notch.’
Only the thought of Ma Tianxiao brought a hint of irritation into Cui Feiyan’s exquisite eyes.
Much to his annoyance, Ma Tianxiao was one of more than a few men who pursued Cui Feiyan. He relentlessly pursued her for a time, but Cui Feiyan held no interest in him and consistently rebuffed him.
A few minutes later, the crowd beneath the stage parted, automatically opening a path.
A well-dressed man in his early thirties, wearing gold-rimmed glasses, was seen striding toward the stage.
The man was quite handsome, with the demeanor of a successful man. His calm and confident movements made him rather endearing. However, his arrogant gaze made people hesitate to approach him.
Just as the man was about to reach the stage, his eyes lit up as he noticed Cui Feiyan standing out in the crowd below.
“Feiyan, what brings you here?”
This man was Ma Tianxiao, the founder of the Golden Charm Memory Training Institution.
“Ah, hello, President Ma.” Cui Feiyan responded with a polite smile.
Ma Tianxiao’s greedy and eager gaze scanned up and down over Cui Feiyan’s exquisite figure and flawless face, nearly causing him to lose his composed, respectful demeanor!
Cui Feiyan was the woman he desired to conquer the most, bar none!
However, Ma Tianxiao soon noticed a pile of prizes next to Cui Feiyan! Over her shoulder was a brand new LV bag, and she held a Nikon SLR camera in her hand.
Ma Tianxiao seemed to understand the situation as he glanced at Huang Xiaolong on the stage. “Feiyan, is the guy on stage your friend? My employee told me that he made it through the third round of the memory challenge and won the grand prize…”
Cui Feiyan did not particularly like Ma Tianxiao’s conceited aura, as though the world revolved around him. Though she had to admit, he certainly did possess some unique abilities.
“Hmm.” Cui Feiyan simply responded coldly.
“Oh?” Ma Tianxiao adjusted his glasses. His eyes narrowed slightly as he sized up Huang Xiaolong on the stage, a barely disguised envious look in his gaze.
In fairness, Ma Tianxiao was quite bitter; despite his many attempts to date Cui Feiyan, she always gave him the cold shoulder. It was hard for him to accept that such a talented person as himself could not win over his goddess.
But that evening, Cui Feiyan was unexpectedly on a date with a fellow who looked like a country bumpkin!
Even more surprisingly, she was holding on to his prizes with her divine body!
For Ma Tianxiao, this was nothing short of humiliation. He felt he had been outperformed by a country bumpkin who still had mud on his shoes.
This was an insult!
‘Feiyan is Binhai’s universally recognized goddess, incredibly wealthy, proud and cold. How could she associate with a bumpkin? Could it be… could it be because this country bumpkin has an extraordinary memory?’
After analyzing the situation, Ma Tianxiao let out an obscure smirk. Adjusting his bearing, he gracefully said to Feiyan, “Feiyan, please wait a moment. I’ll go up on the stage and take care of this nuisance. Then I’ll join you for a chat.
Heh- I do have some experience and confidence in the field of memory training. ”
Having finished speaking, Ma Tianxiao ascended onto the stage.
“Ah! Is he finally here?” Huang Xiaolong, who was getting rather impatient, asked eagerly as he saw Ma Tianxiao ascending the stage. “So, you’re President Ma? And if I challenge you and win, I get to take all the prizes, right?”
“Hmph!” Ma Tianxiao glared disdainfully at Huang Xiaolong. “Young man, you’re clearly fearless because of your ignorance… Defeat me? In the whole of Asia, not many people would dare to say they could beat me in a test of memory!”
“Hehehe, talk is cheap without practical demonstration. Let’s have that memory challenge right now.” Huang Xiaolong said, clearly eager.
Ma Tianxiao looked down at Cui Feiyan from the corner of his eye. His heart was racing, and he vowed to crush this arrogant country bumpkin in front of his goddess.
“Listen carefully. The fourth round will be a challenge against me. The rules: memorize 40 patterns inside of a minute!” A sense of invincibility radiated from Ma Tianxiao.
In the Asian Memory Championships, Ma Tianxiao’s best record was memorizing 45 patterns within a minute. That was when he secured the runner-up spot, just barely losing out to the champion who managed to memorize 47 patterns.
It’s worth noting that the rule for the third round was to memorize 30 patterns within a minute. The fourth round merely added 10 more patterns.
However, the difficulty had exponentially increased.
It could be said that on the basis of memorizing 30 patterns in a minute, even adding a single pattern increased the difficulty significantly!
“Memorize 50 patterns in a minute?” Huang Xiaolong shook his head. “That’s not challenging enough. Let’s increase the difficulty. How about memorizing 50 patterns in a minute?”
“What? Fifty patterns in a minute? Is he bluffing again?” Upon hearing Huang Xiaolong’s words, even Cui Feiyan was taken aback.
