Chapter 3: The Cheating Trial Evaluation

At a glance, the small trial space was still that big, but unexpectedly, it was full of trees over ten meters tall.

“Where are the saplings I planted yesterday? Blown away by the wind? Or eaten by wild beasts?” Mo Xiaobai found it hard to accept; this was the result of his hard work for a long time.

He was counting on them to improve the trial rewards!

Now, were they all gone?

“Hiss, wait a moment, something is wrong.”

Looking closely again, Mo Xiaobai discovered some abnormal places. Yesterday, in order to collect wood, he chopped down a large area of dozens or hundreds of trees; there should have been empty ground and stumps.

Now the stumps and empty ground were gone too!

“Should I count how many trees there are exactly?” He muttered to himself, and Mo Xiaobai’s eyes lit up as he discovered the strangeness of the scene before him.

These towering trees were arranged neatly, simply looking exactly the same as when he first entered the trial space yesterday. The reason he said “simply” was because there were actually sixteen more trees in the front row.

The number of the extra sixteen trees matched exactly with what he had planted yesterday.

“Refreshed?”

“I never heard of such a good thing in my past life?”

The answer Mo Xiaobai could think of now was that the forest resources he had chopped down had been restored by the “Plane Intellect,” and the saplings he planted had also “refreshed” into mature trees.

“No, the Plane Intellect is a copy of the Will of the Universe; it won’t enable cheats for players. Even if I am a reborn person, it’s impossible for the Will of the Universe to treat me like its own son.”

“There must be a reason.”

“There must be a reason.”

Mo Xiaobai felt this matter was too bizarre and wanted to find the reason. After walking around the woods several times and repeatedly confirming that there was no problem with the trial space, Mo Xiaobai could only shift his gaze to himself.

As he lowered his head, he happened to see the “Spacetime Star Disc” hanging at his waist, which was now only the size of an ornament.

The Spacetime Star Disc possessing spacetime abilities!

“Is it you helping me?”

Mo Xiaobai stared blankly at the Spacetime Star Disc he had already equipped, watching a point of starlight flickering within it, and in an instant, he somewhat understood.

Perhaps, it was the Spacetime Star Disc taking effect.

“If it’s true, that would be too awesome.”

As a veteran weakling who had mingled in the “Lord Plane” for fifteen years, Mo Xiaobai knew all too well how much the CD time limited players.

Most directly, food crops in the “Lord Plane” mostly took five days to mature. In the early stage of entering the plane world, the limited production of food directly affected the speed at which Lords recruited residents. Many times, he watched helplessly as a group of Refugees refreshed in front of him, but had no way to recruit them to his Territory.

The reason was none other than that the CD time from clearing land to planting to maturity was too long.

“I hope it can still function after entering the plane.” Mo Xiaobai thought with some greed, while nimbly directing the five strong men to start the new day’s logging work.

However, this time Mo Xiaobai made some adjustments, letting only three strong men chop wood, while he took the other two to continue planting trees.

The treetops and branches that were not finished planting yesterday were still scattered on the grass, and Mo Xiaobai really wanted to know what effect it would have if he planted them all.

“I remember in my past life, besides ‘Four-Three-Two-One’, there was another person who announced the trial’s ‘hidden plot’. And that person had the highest forest restoration completion in the past life; relying on precise mathematical calculations, they achieved a terrifying seventy-seven percent in the limited time.”

“But if my restoration completion reaches one hundred percent this time, will the rewards be even more considerable?”

Mo Xiaobai thought it was more and more possible, because today there were more than a dozen trees than yesterday, plus planting now, let alone reaching one hundred percent, even exceeding one hundred percent was very likely.

“I am simply a genius!”

Just like that, he was busy for another morning, collecting sixteen units of wood again, and also planting a full thirty small saplings.

After resting at noon, Mo Xiaobai stopped planting trees and let the five strong men work together. Just over two hours later, the hundredth unit of wood appeared right on top of the wood pile.

“Ding~ Player ‘Daydreaming’ has successfully completed the trial.”

“Trial evaluation begins.”

……

“The trial evaluation is as follows!”

“Player: Daydreaming!”

“Trial Goal: Achieved!”

“Populace Sentiment Score: S”

“Command Score: A”

“Territory Score: SS”

“Comprehensive Score: S”

“Congratulations to player ‘Daydreaming’ for obtaining the ‘S’ rating in the Talent Trial.”

“Rewards are being distributed, please check your talent rewards yourself.”

A series of prompt sounds kept ringing, sounding like celestial music to Mo Xiaobai.

What was the talent evaluation he obtained in his past life?

Seemingly only C grade?

Let alone the legendary “S”, even a “B” wasn’t given to him!

“Haha, I knew it, I knew it, I will definitely succeed in this life, and will definitely become a super Lord!”

Mo Xiaobai, who was a bit too excited, didn’t notice that the scene around him had changed. The temporary trial space disappeared, replaced by a twinkling universe starry sky.

Only after laughing enough did Mo Xiaobai skillfully summon his plane attribute panel and find the backpack space. The backpack, which was originally empty, now quietly held two things.

A card, and a seven-colored brocade box.

“Lord Talent Card!”

“Grade: S”

“Usage Instruction: The card holder randomly draws and obtains one Lord Talent of this grade.”

“Usage Restriction: Only for Lords!”

……

“Heaven’s Gift Treasure Box!”

“Grade: S”

“Usage Instruction: Upon opening, immediately obtain 10 Heaven’s Gift Points, and twelve different rewards will randomly appear; rewards must be exchanged with Heaven’s Gift Points.”

“Usage Restriction: None!”

The two trial rewards made Mo Xiaobai stare straight-eyed.

The S-grade Talent Card went without saying; that was something Mo Xiaobai could only covet in his past life. As for the special treasure “Heaven’s Gift Treasure Box”, Mo Xiaobai had only heard of it in his past life after the Lord Plane had been open for eight or nine years; truly, he knew its name but never saw its form!

“Open ‘Heaven’s Gift Treasure Box’!”

He gave the command with a trace of excitement, and suddenly a dazzling rainbow light flashed before his eyes.

When the rainbow light gradually softened, twelve different items were already hanging around Mo Xiaobai.

The most dazzling among them was a golden shiny token.

Gold Grade Lord Token!

“Lord Token (Gold Grade)”

“Usage Instruction: Use this token to randomly obtain a Gold Grade Village Territory.”

“Usage Restriction: None!”

“Exchange Points: 6”

The token looked simple, but only Mo Xiaobai, who had experienced fifteen years of plane life, knew how rare a Gold Token was.

In this era where almost everyone was a Lord, Huaxia initially had at least a billion Lords. But among these billion Lords, 99% only obtained the lowest Black Iron Grade Lord Token.

Among the remaining tens of millions of lucky ones, 99% only got Bronze Tokens.

The last hundred thousand players were almost all Silver Tokens.

Only a very few dozen people had very outstanding talent evaluations, with some evaluation reaching S, could they start their Lord career with a Gold Lord Token in the early stage of the plane.

Mo Xiaobai clearly remembered that this group of people caused a sensation for a while.

Looking at the glimmering Gold Grade Token, Mo Xiaobai’s expression was somewhat strange: “Hehe, you big Gold pit, I didn’t expect that in this life, I could actually come into such close contact with you!”
