Rebirth of the Prime Dragon Master
Chapter 1472 To Compete For The Security Hall Leader

Harrison strategically held an assembly to commend Rocky and Ramon in public. He alsoannounced the pending transfer of the current Security Hall leader to the Sword Spirit Sect, wherehe would serve in a critical position, but it likewise indicated that the Security Hall would have noleader in the meantime. Traditionally, the city's governor would appoint someone to the position assoon as possible, but a lot had changed in recent years. Many talents had appeared in the SwordSpirit City, so a fair competition was organized, and whoever won in the contest would be the oneto take the position. In other words, whoever was the strongest would become their leader. Therequirements for participating in the competition were very simple. Firstly, the candidates must beat the King Realm and had surpassed the primary stage of the Spiritual Infant. Secondly, they shouldhave a current position inferior to that of the hall leader, which implied that anyone who had theappropriate levels could participate in the competition.

Although there was no limit in terms of the participants’ strength, those who surpassed the middlestage of the Spiritual Infant among the warriors at the King Realm were highly unlikely to participatein the competition. That was because there were only dozens of warriors at the King Realm in thewhole Sword Spirit City, and most of them were at the primary stage of the Spiritual Infant.Therefore, there were not a lot of warriors at the middle stage of the Spiritual Infant. Besides, thosewho had already reached such a realm tended to join the Sword Spirit Sect instead to receivefurther cultivation. Thus, even though there were no explicit rules about their levels, the competitionfor the leading position naturally attracted those warriors that were almost at the same level.

Soon after Harrison announced it, the news caused a stir and spread all over the Sword Spirit Citylike wildfire.

Typically, the Security Hall was not a place to make fortune in the Sword Spirit City. Yet, it was aplace where it was relatively easy to make contributions and get rewards, and most people couldeasily get a chance to improve their strength there. The fact was backed by history, as one of thethree former leaders of the Security Hall became an elder of the Sword Spirit Sect, and the othertwo held prominent positions within the group, winning respect and recognition from their seniorleaders. Consequently, the Security Hall gained the reputation of being a shortcut where peoplecould climb through the ranks in the Sword Spirit City quickly.

That was to say, once an individual became the leader of the Security Hall, that person could alsoenter the core of the Sword Spirit City, which was the Sword Spirit Sect. And countless spirit warriorsdreamed of achieving that someday!

Meanwhile, Rocky went about as if nothing special had happened. He had achieved somethingexemplary and received praise for it in public, but he had long grown accustomed to it.

However, as soon as he got out of the beast farm early that morning, he saw Tessa rushing towardshim. Tessa was an outstanding disciple of their generation. Plus, she had just merged with a martialspirit. In fact, her strength had significantly improved in recent weeks, and she had become the keytraining disciple of the Sword Spirit Sect. Two days ago, Timothy had asked her to go to the SwordSpirit Sect, where she could directly receive guidance from him.

"I didn't know you were back,"

Rocky greeted her with surprise.

"I just arrived, but that's not important. I heard you got yourself in trouble when you went on amission with Ramon, and you almost couldn't come back alive. Were the rumors accurate?”

Tessa asked at once, sounding far too excited as she stared at Rocky with interest.

"It wasn't that bad! I just had a small accident, and there was hardly any danger involved,” repliedRocky.

He shrugged indifferently as if to show that it wasn't a big deal at all.

"I've never seen you look at me with any improper desire. You always take care of me like an olderbrother, and even though I don't have a brother, I know this feeling of being looked after.

Even so, I still like you. At the very least, I like the feeling of being with you,” Tessa revealed frankly."It seems that you are quite smart, huh? I'm glad I don't need to worry about you,"

Rocky muttered as he breathed a sigh of relief.

"Can I treat you as my brother from now on?" The question took Rocky by surprise, while Tessawaited for his answer expectantly.

"I guess that would be all right, but you can't let your father know this! If he found out, who knowswhat unimaginable consequences I'd have to bear?" Rocky nodded with a smile.

"Don’t worry. My father is very fond of me, and he might even favor you as my brother. He wouldhave said something about our relationship otherwise!"

Tessa had not forgotten about the fact that she was engaged. It was heart-breaking, but it seemedthat she couldn't be with Rocky no matter how much she wanted to.

"Why? Is it because of your engagement with Miguel?" Rocky's eyes narrowed suspiciously at herwords.

"Never mind. It has nothing to do with you anyway." She frowned unhappily, as she didn't want totalk about her engagement at all.

Meanwhile, Rocky decided to let her be and changed the topic. "I'm afraid I can't teach you theMysterious Beast Transformation Skill for the next few days.

Instead, from today on, we will carry out a secret special training with someone,” Rocky revealed,grinning excitedly. "What kind of special training? And with who?" Tessa asked curiously.

"Of course, I will receive the training along with Ramon. Let's talk while walking!" Rocky said with abright smile as he walked on.

Behind him, Tessa scrabbled to follow him immediately.

"It looks like you are getting along well with Ramon now. When you first entered the Sword SpiritCity, he was quite disgusted with you!" Tessa made a face as she looked back into the past.

"Well, Ramon may be a bit obstinate sometimes, but he has a good character and is loyal to theSword Spirit City. It's better to befriend him since we need to have a good working relationshipanyway," he remarked.

"You are the only one who says such good things about him. Many spirit warriors in the Sword SpiritCity don't like him because he is as stubborn as a mule,"

Tessa noted, pouting her lips in a small frown.

"You can say that to him in person,” answered Rocky teasingly.

"Forget it. I'd better not provoke him. Anyway, are you going on this special training because of thecompetition for the position of the Security Hall's leader?" Tessa asked.

"That's right. By the way, there's one thing you don't know. Ramon has recently broken through tothe King Realm. But no one knows about it except for me, and now, you," Rocky told her quietly."Really? That's great! I'm very happy for him," Tessa uttered, looking delighted at the news"However, the warriors at the King Realm who are competing to be the Security Hall's leader mustbe relatively senior in the Sword Spirit City. Both their strength and experience must be very rich, sothe competition will undoubtedly be incredibly fierce. Ramon and I have just broken through to theKing Realm not long ago, and we are surely weaker compared to them. That is why we need to dothis special training. If we don't, we will definitely lose,” said Rocky modestly.

But the truth was that he was already in the middle stage of the Spiritual Infant. Now that he hadthe Scarlet Heaven Jade to strengthen his cultivation, the other competitors would probably be nomatch for him unless they were at the premium stage of the Spiritual Infant.
