Rebirth of the Prime Dragon Master -
Chapter 121 A Provocation
The next morning, Rocky was awakened by the loud sound of forceful knocking. He opened his eyesas he regulated his breath and gathered his power. After opening the door, he saw Thor and Joss,dressed in uniforms embroidered with spirit manipulators’ emblem. They stood still like two trees infront of his door with their spirit-manipulated beasts beside them. Joss's spirit-manipulated beastwas as tall as a regular dog and it was only at the one-star level. Thor's beast, meanwhile, was a littlebigger than Joss's, but it looked like an extremely ugly and strange cat that seemed rather peculiar,as though it had been shaven from head to tail.
"Why are the two of you standing guard so early in the morning?" Rocky asked in confusion as hefrowned.
"Mr. Cliff said that you are in our team now, so he asked us to take you to the training field. Whyhaven't you put on your uniform? It's almost time to go," Joss replied in a low voice.
"We have given you your uniform yesterday," Thor told Rocky.
"Alright then,” Rocky nodded as he returned to his room and searched for the uniform in the thingsThor and Joss gave him yesterday. He found a uniform of coarse cloth soon, immediately putting iton.
Because Rocky thought Uriah was a little conspicuous, he left Uriah in his room.
"Won't you take your spirit-manipulated beast?" Thor asked Rocky as he saw Rocky come out of theroom alone.
"It ate something wrong last night. It's been having diarrhea and is weak now.” Rocky made up anexcuse at once.
Hearing what he said, Thor and Joss looked at each other with furrowed brows. Never before hadthey heard about a spirit-manipulated beast that would have diarrhea.
Rocky proceeded to the training field led by Thor and Joss.
There were three training fields for spirit manipulators to train in this northeast military camp. Rockyhad seen one of them yesterday.
As the three of them arrived at the training field, they saw the spirit manipulators from other teamshad already assembled and were chatting in groups
Once the three of them showed up, those spirit manipulators looked at them and laughed, pointingat them as if they were mocking them. Rocky squinted in annoyance.
Just then, a tall and thin man came up to them with an arrogant air. He emitted a momentum of thespirit manipulator at the sixth grade of the Mortal Stage, which was considered a high level amongthe spirit manipulators here.
"Oh! Isn't it the famous hindering duo?” The tall and thin man teased Thor and Joss.
The other spirit manipulators all laughed out loud as soon as he finished his sentence. They pointedand laughed at the three of them even more cruelly. It seemed that they just could not get enough.In this northeast military camp, there were over sixty spirit manipulators aside from those who wereofficials. They were further divided into six teams except for those spirit manipulators who wereguardians. Each team consisted of about six to eight spirit manipulators. Only three teams had spiritmanipulators above the Earthly Stage, while the spirit manipulators in the other three teams werealmost all at the Mortal Stage. So there were large gaps in the levels of strength among theseteams.
This was especially true for the sixth team which Thor and Joss were in. Almost all the spiritmanipulators at the lowest grades were in this team, so it was naturally the weakest team amongthem and hence was often the subject of ridicule. They were often laughed at by the spiritmanipulators in other teams.
"No. You made a mistake. It's a trio now! Look. There's a new rookie," another spirit manipulatorsaid. They could sense that Rocky's momentum was very weak, so they sneered at him without anyhesitation.
"Ha-ha. You are right,” the tall and thin man laughed as he took a look at Rocky with contempt. Healso thought Rocky was definitely weak, so he looked down on him like the other spiritmanipulators.
Hearing his words, Rocky frowned as he said to Joss, "I saw a dog suddenly barking in front of us.Did you see? It looked very stupid!"
"Rocky, forget it. We'd better not offend him. He's in the first team. I haven't told you that the spiritmanipulators in that team are the most powerful ones in this military camp. We should not crossthem," Joss said to Rocky in a low voice as he pulled Rocky's sleeve in fear. He looked at the tall andthin man with trepidation. Rocky could tell that he had been often bullied by him.
"What did you say? Did you refer to me as a dog?!" The tall man could immediately tell that Rockywas insulting him. His face instantly flushed with anger. Since he had joined the first team, no onehad ever insulted him like that in front of him. He grew angry, his veins bulging out of his forehead"What? Did I say you are a dog? I said the dog was in front of me. I didn’t say it was you. Why wouldyou think you're being likened to a dog? Don't flatter yourself," Rocky ignored Joss’s warning as hereplied to the angry man coldly without any emotion.
Everyone all around them began to laugh loudly. Many of them were chuckling to themselves,because they often felt bored living in the military camp. It was greatly entertaining that right nowsomeone in the weakest team dared to challenge the spirit manipulator in the strongest team. Theyall hoped to see something interesting and exciting happen. A rookie was provoking a spiritmanipulator in the first team. There was no doubt that they would have an amazing battle.
"You!" The tall man became more angry as he clenched his fists so tightly. He grabbed Rocky's collarand shouted, "Bastard! Who do you think you are? Don't you know that I can crush you with justone finger? Little asshole. Don't you know our leader is a disciple of the Ji Clan? He is at the EarthlyStage. If you offend the members in our first team, you will die!"
"So what he is from the Ji Clan. It is nothing to me,” Rocky said with a cold smile. Bryant had invitedhim to the Mansion of General Ximen. He could even enter General Marcia's mansion as long as hewanted. So the Ji Clan was no big deal to him at all.
"Looks like you won't know how powerful I am unless I teach you a lesson,” the man said as hepulled Rocky closer to himself. He was furious that Rocky was still arrogant and calm even after heheard him mention the Ji Clan.
Rocky suddenly released a chilling momentum around himself as he smiled coldly and sinisterly.The tall and thin man felt a freezing cold that wrapped around him. He felt like he was in a deepabyss. The other spirit manipulators around them also felt the chill.
"How dare you pretend to be powerful in front of me?” The man thought Rocky was just bluffing.He immediately clenched his fist gathering spiritual power as he was about to hit Rocky. Once beinghit by this fist, a spirit manipulator at the regular Mortal Stage would be badly hurt or even killed.Thor and Joss were both worried about Rocky. After all, this man was at the sixth grade of theMortal Stage. He was even more powerful than some members of the first team. They thoughtRocky was not strong enough to withstand the tall man's attacks.
No one knew that Rocky was actually at the Earthly Stage. If the tall man really picked a fight, Rockywould definitely teach him a lesson.
"Matthew, stop!" a loud voice rang out. Unwittingly, this had saved the tall man from his imminentdemise.
Matthew turned around and saw a powerful man in a blue uniform showed up along with two men.The other spirit manipulators’ faces also grew serious as they saw this man.
"Leader!" Matthew shot Rocky a glare and let him go, before running to the man in blue.
Rocky looked at this man inquisitively. He could tell that he was at the third grade of the EarthlyStage.
"Rocky, he is the leader of the first team—Evan Ji. It's said that he is the disciple of the Ji Clan. Hisfather has a place in the Ji Clan. He is the top spirit manipulator among the spirit manipulators inthese six teams. And he ranks fifth in the entire northeast military camp. So don't dare to offendhim," Thor said to him in haste.
"Are you causing problems again?" Evan asked Matthew, who had come up to him.
"No, I'm not. The new guy is rude and arrogant, and he even said that the Ji Clan is nothing,”Matthew immediately replied.
Hearing what he said, Evan's face grew instantly solemn as he looked at Rocky with sharp eyes. ButRocky met his gaze stoically, displaying not an ounce of fear.
There seemed to be sparks in the air when the two of them looked at each other. It looked like therewas going to be a fight.
