Rebirth of the Prime Dragon Master
Chapter 1479 Became The Hall Leader

"It's true! It's the Thousand-star Swordsmanship! When did you learn it? And who taught you?"Harrison asked, bewildered at what he had just witnessed.

"I got this swordsmanship the last time we went into the Martial Spirit Graveyard,” Rocky repliedflatly. Of course, he had already come up with an excuse beforehand.

"The Martial Spirit Graveyard..." Harrison uttered with furrowed brows. But after thinking for a while,he thought that it was indeed possible for Rocky to acquire this swordsmanship in the graveyardbecause all of the previous sect leaders had gone there to cultivate. One of them might have left itthere unknowingly.

"Does this swordsmanship have anything to do with the Sword Spirit City?" Rocky asked, althoughhe already had some knowledge regarding it.

"I'll tell you about it later. But remember, if someone asks you about this swordsmanship, tell himthat you have just randomly learned it, or that you have created it yourself. Just don't tell anyonethat it's the Thousand-star Swordsmanship. Do you understand?" Harrison warned

"All right. I got it." Rocky gave his word.

"You can go ahead. I'm going to meet the sect leader now." Harrison knew that this matter shouldbe urgently reported to Timothy. After all, it turned out that a spirit warrior, who was not a sectleader, was able to master the Thousand-star Swordsmanship. It was a huge deal for the SwordSpirit Sect, and if the news spread out, it would definitely cause a big mess. Some clans and sectscoveted the unique sword skill and might take advantage of the situation.

"Then, I'll take my leave." Rocky bowed and eventually left.

At the same time, Harrison immediately set out and flew towards the Sword Spirit Sect.

After Harrison left, Rocky briefly stopped and looked at his receding figure. He then revealed acunning smile, knowing what really was going on. “It seems that everything is going my way. If myassumptions are correct, when the sect leader knows that I learned the swordsmanship, he willdefinitely give me special treatment. With that, I will be able to enter the Sword Spirit Sect freely,and a better cultivation environment would be waiting for me.’

Rocky knew that even if he became the leader of the Security Hall, things might not go verysmoothly for him. This time, he defeated Xavier again, and he believed that Miguel would beinfuriated to the extreme. Although he thought that Miguel was a bit insignificant, he was still thegodson of the sect leader, so he couldn't underestimate his influence. Moreover, Rocky alsodiscerned that after becoming the leader of the Security Hall with minimal experience in the SwordSpirit City, he thought that several people would doubt his capability, and this, in turn, might betaken advantage of by the people who wanted to cause him trouble.

The following day, on behalf of the Sword Spirit Sect, Harrison formally appointed Rocky as the nextleader of the Security Hall of the Sword Spirit City. Thus, Rocky became the youngest leader in thehistory of the city. Of course, although Rocky obtained the position fair and square, in the eyes ofthe older generation, he was still a too young and inexperienced man who might not be verysuitable for the job.

Therefore, except for Harrison, the leaders of the other halls obviously had a condescending attitudetowards Rocky. They didn't want to take Rocky seriously, but the young man didn't seem affectedbecause he was expecting that this would happen.

However, due to Rocky's undeniably excellent performance in the competition, he still attracted alot of people's attention, and many disciples regarded him as an inspiring figure—someone whostarted humbly but was able to attain great heights through hard work

Moreover, the happiest ones for Rocky's achievements were Tessa and Ramon.

In fact, after the appointment ceremony, Tessa and Ramon quickly approached Rocky tocongratulate him.

"You really did it, huh? I guess I'll have to call you “leader’ from now on,” Ramon said as he greetedRocky. If this happened in the past, Ramon would be like the other hall leaders who wouldn'trecognize Rocky. However, since he had gone through many ordeals with the young man, especiallywith the training in the Black-devouring Swamp, he had learned to admire Rocky to the extreme.Furthermore, in the battle against Xavier, if it wasn't for Rocky, he would have been dead already."Ha-ha. That's unnecessary. I would still like you to call me by my name. Besides, I'm going to nameyou as the deputy leader,” Rocky responded with a smile.

"What? Deputy leader? That position isn't being used for a long time. The Security Hall is onlycomprised of two teams, and each one has a captain. That's why they don't think that it is necessaryto have a deputy leader. If you suddenly make that decision, I'm afraid that people would have a lotto say. So, while I appreciate the thought, I suggest that you don't try it,” Ramon explained.

"That changes today. Because from here on, I will be merging the two teams of the Security Hall.Xavier has suffered severe injuries and might take at least a year to recover and resume his dutiesWithout a captain, the Wolf Team wouldn't be able to function properly. That's why I will propose tomerge the Cloudlet Team and the Wolf Team. While I take the role of the leader, I shall appoint youas the deputy leader. Also, you don't need to worry about it because the sect leader has alreadyapproved my plan,” Rocky remarked.

"Really? You already talked to the sect leader? That's great then! Congratulations, Ramon! You'regoing to be the deputy leader of the Security Hall,” Tessa said with much elation. Back then, shealready knew Ramon, but it was only when they fought side by side in the Black-devouring Swampthat she really got to know his character. As they battled life and death together, they naturallyestablished a deeper bond.

"Well, if that's the case, I'll gladly accept it. Thank you for trusting me.” Since Ramon heard that eventhe sect leader had no qualms about it, he had no objection to what Rocky wanted.

"All right. Tessa, you can go home now. Ramon and I still need to go back to the Security Hall todeal with the merging of the guards of the hall," Rocky urged. After he became the leader of theSecurity Hall, Rocky's momentum and aura had somehow become different—or rather returned tohow it was. He was still Prince Basil, the one who once led the enormous army of the human raceand the spiritual race of the Wild Spirit Land. However, in order to not arouse any suspicion, he hadto deliberately restrain himself and hide this side of him the first time he got to the Sword SpiritCity. But now that he had become a leader again, he didn’t have to worry too much about exhibitinghis authority.

"Fine. But don't forget to come by to teach me the Mysterious Beast Transformation Skill!" Tessasaid as she pouted.

"I won't. I just have to finish some work before I go to your pavilion.” Rocky nodded and reassuredher.

With that, Tessa left with a satisfied smile on her face.

"If the sect leader sees that Miss Tessa has been so obedient to you, he will probably feel veryrelieved,” Ramon said with a sigh.

"Huh? What do you mean?” Rocky asked.

"You might not know, but before you came to the city, Miss Tessa was a famous troublemaker, andshe wouldn't listen to anyone, not even to her father. But since you've been close to each other, sheseems to have changed a lot, especially since she started learning the Mysterious BeastTransformation Skill from you. She's just way too different than before,” Ramon said with honesty."Oh, really? I didnt know. Well, it must be because of my wily charms! Ha-ha! I think you alsochanged a lot. At least, you don't dislike me so much now!” Rocky said, grabbing the chance totease Ramon.

"Ahem! I still hate you when you're like this,” Ramon retorted, feeling embarrassed. After all, Rockywas right. He was indeed harsh to the young man before, but it was just reasonable since Rocky wasa mere stranger who suddenly appeared out of nowhere. But now, he had fully trusted him with allhis life.

Afterward, Rocky and Ramon went to the Security Hall to gather the members of the two teams andannounced the merging of the guards publicly. As soon as they heard the news, the members of theWolf Team trembled in fear. Now that Rocky had become their leader, they assumed that their liveswould become miserable because they had offended him a lot of times before. Hence, they believedthat Rocky would use this opportunity to get back at them.

"Members of the Wolf Team, although I am the hall leader now, I strongly suggest that you put themisunderstandings between us in the past behind you. I only ask you to obey me and the deputyleader from now on. I'll be sure to be fair to everyone. Those who disobey the orders would bepunished, and there shall be no exception!" Rocky, who used to be in charge of thousands oftroops, knew what the members of the Wolf Team were thinking, so he quickly put their minds atease.

Upon hearing this, the members of the Wolf Team were able to breathe a sigh of relief. With thisgesture, they started admiring Rocky from the bottom of their hearts. Even the ones who were loyalto Xavier didn't try to do anything reckless. After all, Rocky had already given them a chance. If theywent against him again, they knew that they would really suffer some dire consequences.

After the announcement, Rocky also declared that Ramon would be the deputy leader, and that hewould also be in charge of the affairs of the Security Hall. This meant that Ramon’s words were justequivalent to Rocky's.

Behind it all, the main reason why Rocky wanted to be the leader of the hall was not because ofaccumulating power. It was because he knew that with this position, he could easily acquire moreinformation about the Ethereal Region, thus giving him the opportunity to replace the whereabouts ofMarcia and the others. Therefore, the Security Hall was just a stepping stone for him

After successfully dealing with the affairs of the Security Hall, Rocky left the other tasks to Ramonand went out of the hall.

As soon as he got out of the guard hall, he saw Hannah in a fascinating green dress, walkingtowards him.

“Miss Hannah, it's been a while. What are you doing here? I don't think that there is any escortingmission today,” Rocky asked as he greeted her.

“Well, I'm actually here for you,” Hannah said abruptly.

“Me? What can I do for you?” Rocky asked.

"Nothing much. I actually came to see the governor, and then I heard that you have been officiallyappointed as the leader of the Security Hall, so I wanted to congratulate you." Recently, Hannah'simpression of Rocky had also improved a lot. Especially after what he had done for Ally, she becamefriendlier towards the young man.

"Oh, you don't need to. But anyway, thank you, Miss Hannah. I'm actually flattered,” Rocky repliedwith a sincere smile.

"Well, of course, you have to thank me. After all, if I hadn't pick you up before, you wouldn't end upin this position,” Hannah teased with a charming smile. Seeing that there was no one around, she letherself be comfortable around Rocky.
