Rebirth of the Prime Dragon Master -
Chapter 1555 Still The Same
Not long after, the spirit warriors of the supporting troop gathered in front of the camp whereRocky had just entered.
At this time, Rocky and Gage came out and met Kye's fierce stares.
However, Rocky was used to people with this kind of attitude so he just ignored it. Then, he wentdirectly in front of the spirit warriors. There were more than fifty of them in the team, and most ofthem were at or below the fifth grade of the Spirit Realm and only very few of them were above thefifth grade. As for the ones who had reached the King Realm, only Kye was present at that time. Nowonder he seemed arrogant. Of all the spirit warriors there, he was the most powerful one and noone dared to compete with him. They were all afraid of his strength that all they could do was obeyhis orders.
"Hello everyone. From here on, I will be your new team leader. My name is Basil Long, and I amfrom the Sky-suppressing School. Your former team leader, Kye Lin, will also become a regularmember of the spirit warriors. Thus, it means that he doesn't have the authority to commandanyone of you from now on. Is that clear?" Rocky asked as he bluntly addressed the warriors in frontof him.
At the same time, the spirit warriors could not help but look at each other and whisper amongthemselves. Obviously, they had varying opinions on their new team leader, especially that thechange was so sudden.
"Well, of course, I know that you must be dissatisfied for having me as your team leader. Iunderstand that for all of you, I am just a stranger who suddenly showed up. Hence, you must alsobe unwilling to accept or obey my orders. However, I will just remind you that this area is abattlefield, and the military rules apply in everything. So, I don't really care whether you are willingor not, but all of you must follow my orders. Moreover, if you have complaints about me, you cantell Commander Wang. I promise that I will act professionally and won't hold it against you,” Rockysaid straightforwardly.
Upon hearing this, the spirit warriors started discussing among themselves. They were actually takenaback by Rocky's words, and they realized that he was indeed very different from their previousleader.
"Of course, we won't dare to do that, Captain Basil. How could we afford to offend an elite like youwho came from the Sky-suppressing School? Furthermore, you have Commander Wang as yourbacker. We won't ask for such kind of humiliation!" one of Kye's henchmen remarked sarcastically.Obviously, he was just trying to rouse the other warriors’ wrath.
"Well, although I do not want to admit it, what you said is true. So, I suggest that you'd better figureout who the team leader is from now on. That would save all of you from trouble,” Rocky said in adomineering tone. He wasn't pissed off at all, but he also didn't let anyone get the better of him.Hearing Rocky's response, the confidant instantly had a sour look on his face. He realized that Rockywas not someone whom they could easily push around.
"By the way, Captain Basil, our team has a tradition whenever there is a new captain. Think of it as awelcome ceremony before he formally takes the position. But I wonder if you have the guts toaccept it." Kye let out a sinister smile as he tried to provoke Rocky.
"Why not? Since you have gone out of your way to prepare this for me, I think it would be rude if Idid not accept it," Rocky answered indifferently.
"All right then. Please stand in the middle of us, Captain Basil,” Kye quickly said as a faint sneerbecame visible on his face.
Without hesitation, Rocky walked in the middle of the group of the spirit warriors
"Now, no matter what happened, you shall not use your spiritual power. Otherwise, it will be as ifyou are looking down upon us,” Kye warned as Rocky got into the position.
"Okay, I promise,” Rocky responded without any hints of wariness
At this moment, several team members suddenly appeared from behind Rocky. Apparently, theywere carrying a few buckets of beast dung, and they were about to pour them unto him.
The other team members held their breaths as they waited for Rocky's distasteful rite to happenbefore their eyes. They believed that if he did not use his spiritual power, there was no way for himto avoid the beast dung.
However, just before the beast dung splashed over Rocky, there was a sudden curl at the corner ofhis lips. Out of nowhere, a shadow of a Spiritual Infant emerged behind him. Then, the force of theSpiritual Infant burst out, resisting and throwing the approaching beast dung back to the spiritwarriors.
Naturally, they were caught off guard with the sudden emergence of a Spiritual Infant. Those whoattempted to pour the beast dung were not fast enough, so they received the beast dung that wasthrown back at them. In the end, they were the ones who were completely covered in filth.
"Captain Basil, didn't you promise earlier that you will not use your spiritual power? You just lied toour faces! How will you expect the members of the team to give you some respect?” Since the plandid not turn out what Kye expected, he seized the opportunity to criticize Rocky in front of all thespirit warriors.
"Well, yes, I said that I would not use my spiritual power. However, I don't remember saying that Iwon't use my Spiritual Infant. Besides, did you forget that when someone has already reached theKing Realm, his Spiritual Infant will have its own consciousness, especially to defend its master?"Rocky asked as he raised an eyebrow.
"You..." Upon hearing Rocky's response, Kye was rendered speechless. He realized that he had beencareless, so Rocky was able to easily replace a loophole and take advantage of it.
"Anyway, this welcome ceremony has been special. I can see that all of you are enthusiastic enough,so from now on, everyone will be doing some morning exercises at five o'clock in the morning everyday. Moreover, if one doesn't have any special reason, he will not be permitted to ask for leave orbe late. Finally, if there is nothing else that you want to say, all of you are dismissed!" Rocky saidfirmly as he waved his hand.
Soon enough, all of the spirit warriors dispersed in various directions.
"Damn it! That guy is a smartass!" Obviously, Kye and his henchmen were very dissatisfied becausethey were not able to humiliate Rocky.
"Kye, what are we going to do now? It seems that the new captain is not someone that is easy todeal with."
"And why does he need to require us to train so early in the morning every day? You didn't even askus to do that before. He's just a newcomer but he's being too arrogant!”
"Why don't we talk to Commander Wang and let him drive that guy out of the team?"
Kye's underlings offered a suggestion.
"Shut up. That is not an option. And besides, I know what I am doing," Kye shouted out ofannoyance. First, Rocky took his former position, and now, he was making some changes that werenot favorable to them. Of course, Kye would not let this go and let Rocky off the hook that easily."Captain Basil, I'm leaving already,” Gage said as he cupped his hands. Right now, he was greatlyrelieved that Rocky was able to show Kye his place, as well as intimidate the rest of the spiritwarriors.
"I see. Thank you for your hard work, Gage. You can now go ahead,” Rocky answered with a firmsalute.
Gage left and parted ways with Rocky.
Not long after, Rocky was able to get back to his temporary residence. In just a few minutes, Eunicealso came back.
"Oh, Rocky. Why are you back so soon? Have you already met the new team members that will beunder you?" Eunice asked out of curiosity.
"Yes. But I am having quite a hard time dealing with all of them. After all, they refuse to obey me,”Rocky said as he smiled bitterly.
"Really? Then, I'm much luckier than you. The team members that I met today were very welcoming.In fact, it seems that they will give me whatever I want if I just ask,” Eunice said with a haughty smileon her face.
"Well, if I were your team member, I would also do the same,” Rocky teased.
"Ha! I am not going to fall for your smooth talk! By the way, are you fine with just being a teamleader in this place? Didn't you say that your real goal is to replace your companions?" Eunice askedwith hints of concern in her voice.
"Yes, that is my goal. But I don't need to rush things up. Besides, the border battlefield is so large.Even though I know that they're here, I'm not exactly sure where to replace them. It will be just a wasteof time and effort to search for them blindly. Moreover, I think I have found a better way. Ifeverything will go as planned, they should be able to perceive my existence without me looking forthem one by one," Rocky muttered. After coming and observing the Tiger Whisker Pass, Rocky hadcome up with some new ideas. He thought that it would be better if he could spread theinformation that he was actually from another world. This way, the news should travel fast enoughfor his companions to know that he was here.
