Rebirth of the Prime Dragon Master
Chapter 1430 Being Handsomely Rewarded

"Oh, it's him. But shouldn't he be working in the beast farm instead? I mean, why did he go to theguard team? What's going on, Ramon? Tell me. Are you hiding something from me?" Harrisoninterrogated. At that moment, he recalled that he had asked Ramon to set Rocky up to work in thebeast farm. But as it turned out, Rocky was enrolled in Ramon’s guard team instead.

"My Lord, Basil was able to pass the entrance exam just a few days ago. Now, he is a preliminarydisciple of the Sword Spirit City and has been assigned to my guard team,” Ramon replied in amatter of fact.

"Is that so? Did he really pass the entrance exam? Interesting. I have tested him before, and Ithought that he is nothing but an ordinary person. But what baffles me the most is that he canactually become a spirit warrior in such a short time, and also a disciple of our sect. How could thatbe? Tell me, Ramon, is there something I don't know?" Harrison asked curiously as his voice raised alittle.

"I'm not quite sure, My Lord. All I know is that if he did not try his best to protect Miss Hannah, thenI'm afraid that I wouldn't have been able to arrive in time,” Roman said with all honesty. Somehow, itwas very unusual for Ramon to put in a good word for Rocky. After all, he was not so friendly withhim to begin with.

"Hannah, is this true?" Harrison asked as he placed his gaze on Hannah.

"I believe so. Basil had almost lost his life just by trying to protect me," Hannah replied with areassuring nod.

"In that case, then you should be rewarded handsomely for doing a good job on protectingHannah. I will ask the leader of the Security Hall to reward you and your Cloudlet Team for yourcontribution!" Harrison was a man who always had a clear distinction between rewards andpunishments.

"Thank you so much, My Lord!" Ramon cupped his hands, bowed a little and said.

Soon after, Hannah and Ramon left the hall together.

"Ramon, can I ask you a quick question? What do you think of Basil?" As they walked, Hannah askedhim out of the blue.

"Do you really want me to be honest with you, Miss Hannah?" Ramon said in a low voice as henarrowed his eyes.

But as a reply, Hannah nodded heavily.

"To tell you the truth, I have always felt the young bloke to be a little suspicious. But somehow, Ican't really pinpoint why I feel that way,” Ramon answered frankly.

"You're not alone. Actually, I think the same way." Unexpectedly, Hannah looked him in the eye andagreed with him.

"What makes you say that?" At that moment, Ramon was very curious and eager to hear Hannah'sside of the story.

"As far as I have observed, we are facing masters at the seventh stage of the Spirit Realm. I just replaceit odd that he could manage to hold on for a long time. I am certain that this is something that noordinary spirit warrior can do. Plus, he owns a Spiritual Weapon—a dagger, which is rare to replace. Allthe clues don't add up,” Hannah remarked. Despite not being a spirit warrior, she could feel withoutusing her spiritual sense that Rocky was out of the ordinary. After all, she grew up in the SwordSpirit Sect, thus, sharpening her intuition and her spiritual sense.

"So, why didn't you tell the leader? I say that we should make a prompt decision in case ofunnecessary trouble since Basil's identity is becoming more and more suspicious,” Ramon advisedimmediately. Without a doubt, he still had a deep prejudice against Rocky.

"Well, I don't know. I mean, he may be suspicious, but judging from the way he protected me, Idon't think he is that dangerous. Even if he is hiding something from us, as long as he is not doinganything that could potentially threaten our sect, just turn a blind eye to it!" When he heard howHannah even tried to defend Rocky, Ramon'’s eyes widened in shock.

"But... Miss Hannah..." Ramon still felt that her advice was rather inappropriate and not the best forthe situation.

"And besides, if it weren't for him, then I wouldn't have been safe and sound right now. Just keep akeen eye on him for now. If he does anything wrong, then you report straight to me. If thathappens, then I will make a decision," Hannah said as she schemed.

"Okay, sure thing. I will." At that moment, Ramon had no other choice but to cup his hands andfollow Hannah's orders.

"But I think you must have already known about his hidden skills beforehand, so you deliberatelyarranged him to protect me. After all, I don't think anyone expects him to have the ability to protectme," Hannah suddenly said suggestively.

"Well, uhm, that..." Ramon stammered as he did not know what to say.

"Ramon, you're only one step away from the King Realm. I will ask my father later for another quotato enter the Martial Spirit Graveyard. Afterwards, you can also go in," Hannah offered.

"No, I don't think I can do that. If others knew that you gave me the qualification, I'm afraid it wouldcause some unnecessary suspicion. I think it is best to fight for the qualification through thecompetition so that it is fair and square!” Ramon's expression changed and immediately waved hishand. Obviously, he didn't want to cause Hannah any trouble.

"There is only one quota, and there are many masters at the seventh grade of the Spirit Realm inour sect. I know that you are already one of the top masters, but there is no assurance that you canwin. Besides, you deserve this. You have been loyal to the Sword Spirit City, and you deserve thismore than anyone else. Do not let this opportunity go to waste,” Hannah urged gravely.

"Thank you very much for this, Miss Hannah." Seeing that Hannah had already made up her mind,Ramon knew that it was useless to say too much at that point. Moreover, he thought that turningher offer down would make her very displeased.

"Okay. I'm leaving now.” Hannah nodded slightly and then left.

Looking at the disappearing figure of Hannah, Ramon could not help but mutter to himself, "Whaton earth is Basil hiding?"

Meanwhile, Rocky noticed that Tessa was approaching him hurriedly as soon as he came out of thehealing room.

"Basil! There you are. Are you okay?" Tessa asked as looked at Rocky anxiously.

"It's nothing. Why are you here?" Rocky said, shaking his head in dismissal.

"I heard that the Robber Regiment ambushed the guard team, and many of the guards died andwere injured. I was shocked to hear that you were badly injured, too for protecting Hannah," out ofbreath, Tessa stated as fast as she could. She came to him without hesitation after hearing that hewas seriously injured.

"Like what I said, it's nothing. It's just a minor injury," Rocky said indifferently.

"Quit saying that it's not a big deal! Have you seen yourself?" Seeing that most of Rocky's body waswrapped in gauze with blood still oozing out of it, Tessas eyes turned red and felt sorry for him.

"It doesn't matter. Your care heals better than any elixir,” Rocky teased.

"What are you talking about?" Tessa glared at Rocky and continued, "Do you want me to send youback to have a rest?"

"No, that won't be necessary. I can go back by myself. I wouldn't want to bother you and be aburden. I'll just come to you tomorrow." As soon as he finished his words, Rocky left immediately.After returning to the beast farm, Rocky quickly untied the bandage on his body, and then took adrop of magical saliva to heal his wounds. Not long after, the wounds on his body were almosthealed in an instant.

"By now, Hannah and Ramon must have changed their impression of me. It can be a little easier forme in the Sword Spirit Sect in the future with their help. But now, the most important thing is tobreak through to the King Realm,” Rocky murmured to himself.

Meanwhile, the next day, the sun rose high, casting light on Rocky's face.

Due to Rocky and Ramon's contribution in protecting Hannah and the ethereal crystals, the leaderof the Security Hall received Harrison's order to reward them. Rocky had made the mostcontribution. Therefore, he was rewarded with ten low-grade ethereal crystals, three middle-gradeones and one high-grade directly. At that moment, the other guards all looked at the etherealcrystals with prying and envious eyes.

In the Supreme Ether Land, ethereal crystals were considered to be necessary for a warrior tocultivate. There, they fused the spiritual power within the ethereal crystals, making the cultivationyield twice the result with only half the effort.

Generally, ethereal crystals were extracted from ores of some mines with unusually rich spiritualenergy. Moreover, they were naturally formed and were very rare to replace.

Only a few forces possessed this kind of extracting technology in the three major regions of theSupreme Ether Land, so the ethereal crystals became very popular for their rarity and use. As aresult, the spirit warriors treated the ethereal crystals as one of the common trading currency usedin the Supreme Ether Land.
