Huang Xiaolong’s answer board was in full public view.

The male emcee personally examined it thoroughly several times…

F*ck, it was flawless!

All correct!

“How…how…how is this possible?” The male emcee was astonished, his expression akin to having seen a ghost.

“He passed this round? How did he manage to do that?” Right at this moment, Cui Feiyan was truly stunned.

Below the stage, a loud commotion ensued.

“Hehe, what are the prizes for the third round?” Huang Xiaolong rubbed his hands together in excitement.

Several staff members simultaneously turned to look at the male emcee.

Drops of sweat the size of soybeans beaded on the male emcee’s forehead, the look in his eyes becoming slightly anxious and somewhat dismal.

To be honest, this event organized by the Golden Charm Memory Training Agency was clearly a gimmick.

The organizers had calculated the costs rigorously. The prize value for the Memory Breakthrough event’s first and second rounds was not high and participants were welcome to win them, so these prizes were treated as part of the operational and advertisement cost.

However, the prizes for the third round were worth a lot more, and prior to the event, they had not considered that someone might actually make it past the third round.

Right now, they were caught between a rock and a hard place!

“That… You guys aren’t thinking about going back on your word, are you?” Huang Xiaolong worriedly asked.

Instantly, a group of nosey parkers below the stage started to boo and jeer.

“Give him the prizes,” the male emcee instructed several staff members, gritting his teeth. 

After he finished speaking, he walked across the stage to a corner and nervously whipped out his phone to pull up a number.

The prizes for the third round were awarded…

A high-end Nikon D810 SLR camera!

An iPhone 7 plus!

A premium Lancôme makeup set!

A bottle of Coco Chanel perfume!

A Longines Master Collection Men’s automatic watch!

An LV New Wave handbag!

A Philips electric shaver!

A 20-gram premium platinum necklace from Chow Tai Fook! 

…

The cost of this round of prizes had probably already exceeded 100,000 RMB!

Under the wildly awestruck and envious gaze of the audience below, Huang Xiaolong ran to the edge of the stage and passed all his prizes to Cui Feiyan for safekeeping.

Cui Feiyan mechanically took the prizes and raised her head to look at Huang Xiaolong, a strange feeling bubbling up within her. 

She suddenly realized that it was actually difficult to see past the facade of this seemingly uncouth, incredibly thick-skinned, and extremely shameless hillbilly. He was shrouded in mystery, making him seem unpredictable and profound.

Huang Xiaolong ran to the middle of the stage once again and said to the male emcee, grinning, “I’d still like to try for the fourth round.”

Considering how incredible the prizes were for the third round, if he could get past the fourth, would that not be absolute heaven? 

With the prizes being continuously upgraded each round, the audience was starting to feel nervous and the atmosphere became weightier. 

“Es…esteemed friend…please…please wait for a moment…” The male emcee fished out a handkerchief and dabbed at the cold sweat on his forehead. “Ah, this weather really is quite warm.”

“A calm heart keeps you cool, so calm down and you won’t feel hot anymore,” Huang Xiaolong commented with a smile.

‘Motherf*cker! F*ck your sister! Your hillbilly self pretty much barged in and ruined our event! What the f*ck!’ The male emcee cursed inwardly.

“Well…friend, according to our rules, after consecutively passing the first three rounds, the CEO of the Golden Charm Memory Training Agency, CEO Ma, will be here in person for the fourth round…” The male emcee scrambled to find words. “That is to say, if you wish to pass the fourth round, you will…you will have to PK with our CEO Ma…”

“Oh, I understand, PK means a one-on-one battle right? PK is my favorite!” Huang Xiaolong was bursting with excitement. “Where’s your CEO Ma?”

“Ahem… there’s no need to be anxious, CEO Ma will be here soon.” A while ago, the male emcee had already phoned Ma Tianxiao, CEO of the Golden Charm Memory Training Agency, requesting him to come over and urgently deal with this sudden emergency.

“Alright, I’ll wait for him.” Huang Xiaolong enviously eyed the remaining prizes on stage. “If I beat your CEO Ma during the PK, that means all the prizes will be mine, right?”

“Theoretically, yes.” The male emcee cast a withering look at Huang Xiaolong.

Below the stage, Cui Feiyan’s heart raced slightly…’Ma Tianxiao… founder of the Golden Charm Memory Training Agency, who participated in the Asian Memory Championship before—they say his best result was becoming the runner-up… This man is famous in Binhai, having been crowned as a child prodigy when he was young. He has both skill and connections, and has a successful career now, with a net worth exceeding tens of millions. He has immense potential and can be described as someone with exceptional talent.’

Thinking of Ma Tianxiao, a flash of intolerance flickered briefly through Cui Feiyan’s eyes.

As a matter of fact, Ma Tianxiao was one of Cui Feiyan’s numerous suitors and had pursued her relentlessly for a while. However, Cui Feiyan felt nothing but displeasure at his attempts and had bluntly rejected him each time.

A few minutes later, the crowd below the stage scattered to make way for someone.

A well-dressed man appeared, striding purposefully towards the stage. He was in his thirties and wore a pair of gold-rimmed glasses.

This person could be described as handsome; an aura of accomplishment, and was effortlessly confident and composed, which gave people a good impression. However, there was a certain arrogance in his eyes, so an average person would not really dare to approach him.

The man was about to walk up the stage when his eyes lit up—he had noticed Cui Feiyan standing below the stage, a rose among the thorns. 

“Feiyan, why are you here as well?”

This man, then, was Ma Tianxiao, the founder of the Golden Charm Memory Training Agency.

“Mm. Hello, CEO Ma.” Cui Feiyan smiled with customary politeness.

Ma Tianxiao’s greedy, passionate gaze swept over Cui Feiyan’s attractive figure and flawless looks, almost forgetting himself despite his outwardly gentle, cultivated demeanor.

Cui Feiyan was, without exception, the woman he desired most to conquer!

However, Ma Tianxiao soon realized that beside Cui Feiyan was a heap of prizes! A brand new LV handbag was slung on her shoulder and she had a Nikon SLR camera in her hands.

Understanding dawned on Ma Tianxiao and he lifted his gaze toward Huang Xiaolong who was on the stage. “Feiyan, is that person on the stage your friend? My staff member called me to inform me that he passed the third round of the Memory Breakthrough event, single-handedly monopolizing all the prizes…”

Cui Feiyan disliked Ma Tianxiao’s sense of self-importance as if the whole world had to revolve around him, even if he was a cut above the rest.

“Mm,” Cui Feiyan replied coolly.

“Oh?” Ma Tianxiao adjusted his glasses, his eyes scrutinizing Huang Xiaolong from behind the lenses with undisguised envy.

It must be noted that Ma Tianxiao had tried to ask Cui Feiyan out on numerous occasions, only to be coldly rejected each time. He considered himself to be brimming with talent, yet he was unable to impress the woman of his dreams; this made him feel extremely disgruntled.

Tonight, however, he had not expected Cui Feiyan to show up as the sole companion of this individual in hillbilly get-up!

Moreover, Cui Feiyan in all her peerless beauty and grace had even deigned to watch over his prizes!

Ma Tianxiao had virtually been one-upped by a hillbilly who spoke village slang and had mud beneath his shoes.

How humiliating!

‘Feiyan is a goddess within the Binhai business world. She is extremely wealthy and is known for her cold, haughty demeanor. How could she possibly associate with a hillbilly? Unless…unless it’s because his memory power is truly exceptional?’

Ma Tianxiao analyzed the situation for a moment. Then, the corners of his mouth twitched up in a cryptic smile as he composed himself and said suavely, “Feiyan, wait for a moment while I get rid of this troublesome character, then I’ll catch up with you in a bit. Ah, when it comes to the field of memory power, I still consider myself experienced and confident.”

As soon as he finished speaking, Ma Tianxiao stepped up onto the stage.

“Ah, you’ve finally shown up?” Huang Xiaolong eagerly asked as Ma Tianxiao arrived, having long since grown tired of waiting. “You are CEO Ma, right? As long as I beat you in a PK, I’ll be able to walk away with all the prizes, am I right?”

“Hmph!” Ma Tianxiao glared at Huang Xiaolong in some disdain and coldly replied, “Young man, it seems that your ignorance makes you fearless…beating me in a PK? When it comes to memory power, not many in the whole of Asia would dare utter these words to me!”

“Hehehe, all talk and no action is completely meaningless, so let’s get started then,” Huang Xiaolong impatiently suggested.

Out of the corner of his eye, Ma Tianxiao sneaked a glance at Cui Feiyan who was standing below the stage and felt his emotions inflame slightly. He vowed that he would crush this rowdy hillbilly in front of him so he could steal the limelight in front of his goddess.

“Listen up, for the fourth round, you and I will PK. The rule is—within one minute, you must memorize 40 pictures!” Ma Tianxiao exuded an invincible aura.

During the Asian Memory Championship, Ma Tianxiao’s best result was successfully memorizing 45 pictures within one minute. At the time, he had emerged as the runner-up; the winner had only beat him by a narrow margin of 47 pictures within one minute.

It must be noted that the rule for the third round was to memorize 30 pictures within one minute. The fourth round would require only 10 more pictures to be memorized.

However, the difficulty level had skyrocketed by unknown orders of magnitude.

One could say that, with the baseline of memorizing 30 pictures in one minute, the difficulty level of adding even one more picture at a time would be extremely high. 

“Memorizing 40 pictures in one minute?” Huang Xiaolong shook his head all of a sudden. “That’s so boring. Why don’t we raise the bar a little and memorize 50 pictures in one minute? How about that?”

‘What? Memorizing 50 pictures in one minute? Is this guy bragging again?’ Upon hearing Huang Xiaolong’s words, Cui Feiyan was startled as well.
