Rebirth of the Prime Dragon Master
Chapter 1431 Xavier Proposed A Competition

The ethereal crystals were divided into two levels—the Spirit Realm and the King Realm. Each of therealms was still further classified into low, grade, and high grade. The ethereal crystals at the lowgrade of the Spirit Realm were suitable for warriors below the third grade of the Spirit Realm, whilethe ones at the medium grade were befitting for warriors below the sixth grade of the Spirit Realm.When the crystals were used, each of them was equivalent to about a month's cultivation. On theother hand, the ethereal crystals at the high grade of the Spirit Realm were very much desired byspirit warriors at the seventh grade of the Spirit Realm, because such crystals could contribute toabout three months’ worth of their cultivation.

As for the ethereal crystals at the King Realm, they were just invaluable. Even a low-grade one wasenough to bring out unmatched power, which enabled warriors to fight for it with all their might.Therefore, now that Rocky had acquired so many ethereal crystals, it was no wonder that most ofthe other disciples were very envious of him.

However, after Rocky was bestowed with this reward, he did something way beyond everyone'sexpectations.

"Captain Ramon, I decided to only keep one high-grade ethereal crystal. Please distribute the rest tothe disciples that got injured when they were protecting Miss Hannah,” Rocky said without any hintof hesitation as he handed the ethereal crystals to Ramon.

Such an action was unprecedented, so even Ramon was extremely surprised. He had never seensuch a selfless attitude before.

With Rocky's astounding generosity, the disciples of the Cloudlet Team looked at him in a new light.Besides, if it weren't for Rocky's heroic actions, Hannah would have been in danger and might havebeen caught by their enemies. If that happened, all of the disciples would have been punishedinstead. Therefore, they were already grateful to Rocky in the first place. With the benevolentgesture, they even admired him all the more.

Of course, Rocky had also an ulterior motive on why he did that. He deliberately gave the etherealcrystals to the other disciples to leave a good impression on them. Besides, he didn't need thecrystals in the first place.

After that, Rocky left the lounge of the Cloudlet Team under the watchful eyes of the crowd

"Yes, I am."

"Well, it seems that Captain Ramon is correct. You're just a weak-looking newcomer. I guess you'rejust at the first grade of the Spirit Realm, right? Come to think of it; how were you able to protectMiss Hannah? I think the enemy must be too weak and stupid!" Xavier taunted. He found it verydistasteful that Hannah was protected by such a weak warrior and was even given a greatcommendation for it.

Hearing Xavier's words, the members of his team also burst into laughter.

"Carrying out a task doesn't only rely on one's own strength. Are you familiar with the term“strategy’? You should look it up sometime. I'm not just a simpleton with developed limbs whowould rush headfirst," Rocky retorted without even flinching. Even with Xavier's intimidating stare,he wasn't a bit fazed.

"What did you say, brat?!" Xavier instantly scowled, not expecting that a mere low-grade spiritwarrior would try to talk trash in his face.

"Basil, shut up at once!" Ramon shouted and was also surprised by Rocky's audacity. He was afraidthat his subordinate would suffer a severe punishment if he provoked Xavier further. "CaptainXavier, if you have already fulfilled your business here, please head back. Isn't today supposed to beyour shift?"

"I don't have anything to deal with today. That's why I brought some of the disciples from my teamto learn and exchange experience with your team. It's been such a long time since our teamschallenged each other. So, I'm proposing a competition. Why don't you send a few of yourmembers and compete with mine? I'm expecting that you will pick this guy. I'd really like to seewhat he is capable of!" Xavier said as he pointed at Rocky, who had just angered him.

When Ramon heard his words, his eyes flashed with coldness. He knew that Xavier had always beenan imperious figure in the Sword Spirit City. More importantly, if he refused, Xavier wouldn't let himoff in peace.

Moreover, the Cloudlet Team had just been recognized for a meritorious contribution. Turning thechallenge down would look like he was discrediting the abilities of his own members. It was just acompetition between fellow disciples, so in theory, there was really nothing to worry about. But still,Ramon couldn't stop worrying, especially when Xavier specifically requested Rocky's involvement."Captain Ramon, since Captain Xavier is personally inviting me to participate in this event, I thinkthat I would disgrace the Cloudlet Team if I didn't accept the challenge. Besides, I'd rather lose thanbe called a coward..." Rocky knew what was running on Ramon's mind, so he immediately made hisstand and showed his determination.

Although Rocky's words alone didn't sound very convincing, he couldn't help but notice that themorale of the Cloudlet Team had dramatically improved. Rocky wasn't their most powerful member,but he didn't show any hint of fear at all. Therefore, they became much more confident even if theywere faced with Xavier's team.

Seeing how Rocky had also affected his team's overall drive, Ramon couldn't help but show someappreciation for him. Thus, he said to Xavier, "Since you invite us with enthusiasm, fine, I will send afew disciples from my team to compete with yours. I will also let Basil fight, but he will be the lastone to compete. If your men want to fight him, then they have to defeat the other disciples on myteam first!"

Ramon deliberately made the arrangement to protect Rocky to the greatest extent. He felt that theoverall strength of the Cloudlet Team and the Wolf Team was about the same, so in the instancethat Rocky really needed to fight, there would probably be just one or two members of the WolfTeam left. It meant that Rocky wouldn't need to fight too much or he could just ask Rocky to quitthe competition.

"Fine by me." Xavier glanced at Rocky and sneered confidently. As they finished deciding on theterms, Xavier led his team out of the lounge.

Soon enough, Ramon and the members of the Cloudlet Team followed them.

Outside of the lounge, there was a huge open space, which was generally used for sparring, so itwas where they were going to hold the competition.

While the Wolf Team prepared, Ramon also selected several disciples from his team who were goingto compete along with Rocky.
