Rebirth of the Prime Dragon Master
Chapter 1740 The Highest Record

"All right then. If you still need anything, just tell me. I'll ask Eunice right away to arrange it for you,"Colton reassured Rocky.

"Okay. Thank you." Rocky nodded, grateful for Colton's cooperation.

"By the way, I think I should let you know that we have decided to add another rule in the SpiritualEmperor Contest. It means that the Spiritual Emperors who are not officially part of the contest canchallenge the participants. This way, more Spiritual Emperors will have the chance to take part in thecontest. I think that it will be a good opportunity for you to challenge more Spiritual Emperors usingthe identity of Basil, so that you may carry out your plans better,” Colton explained.

"Really? That will be really helpful.” Rocky let out a smirk and thought that it was indeed a goodidea.

"Well, it's time for me to leave. I am definitely looking forward to your performance in the contest,”Colton said with a smile. Then, he put on his bamboo hat and eventually vanished into thin air.Afterward, Rocky also left and headed back to his residence.

At the door, he found Eunice there, who had been waiting for him all this time. Then, sheapproached him and asked, "What were you talking about with the chief? Tell me.”

"It's a secret! Walls have ears. Someone might be listening out there.” Seeing how serious Eunicewas, Rocky decided to tease her.

"Humph! You just don't want to say it!" Eunice snorted while staring at Rocky in disdain.

"By the way, I heard from the chief that they will add another rule to the Spiritual Emperor Contestto accommodate more participants. So, I decided to use my identity as Basil to challenge moreSpiritual Emperors. Can you arrange that for me?" Rocky asked. This time, his expression eventuallybecame serious.

"I was just about to tell you that. I've already arranged it for you." As soon as Eunice said that, shetook out a jade token with the name Basil engraved on it, and showed it to Rocky.

"Wow. It seems that you really know how I think. I can see that you care for me so much," Rockysaid with a meaningful smile.

"What? You are so full of yourself! Can I smack you just once?" Eunice said with contempt as she gotflustered.

"Ha-ha. But seriously, thank you.” Then, Rocky took the jade token from Eunice and went straight tothe gate.

"Damn it. That guy is super annoying!" Eunice's heart was still pounding as she stared at Rocky'sback with her eyes full of affection.

Three days eventually passed, and the Spiritual Emperor Contest arrived as scheduled.

Early on that morning, as expected, the square of the Boundless Manor was crowded with people.All of the one hundred Spiritual Emperors gathered there. Of course, there were also people whocame from various places to watch the competition, including some senior leaders of the spiritualrace.

Not long after, Colton appeared together with three elders and more than ten Spiritual Emperorsfrom the Di Clan. In fact, they were enough to make the audience gasp because of their majesticaura.

Then, after a brief impassioned speech from Colton, he began explaining the rules of the contest.This year, the Spiritual Emperor Contest would not simply adopt the elimination system. In the firsttwo rounds, there would be all kinds of tests, and the participants would gain corresponding pointsby passing them. The higher one’s points were, the higher his ranking would be. After these tworounds, the one hundred Spiritual Emperors would be challenged by other Spiritual Emperors whowere not originally qualified to enter the contest. If the points accumulated by the challengersreached the top one hundred, then the original participants who fell in the ranking would beeliminated.

"The first round of the Spiritual Emperor Contest will test your abilities. Every Spiritual Emperor willneed to take a series of tests and obtain points from them. I hope that you will perform well so thatyou can accumulate as many points as possible." Right after Colton finished speaking, the gongsand drums in the square began to resound.

With this, the Spiritual Emperor Contest, which was held for the rapport of the human race and thespiritual race, officially began.

Immediately after, the participants rushed to the test areas that were spread throughout theBoundless Mountain.

"So, where is that apprentice pharmacist of yours? Did he not come?" Valeria walked towards Rockyand asked him.

"I don't know. Maybe he just overslept or something,” Rocky said perfunctorily. At the same time, hesaw Gloria, who had already disguised herself, not too far away. Upon seeing that he noticed her,Gloria deliberately winked at him seductively.

"So, what will you do now? Shall we go together?" Valeria asked.

"I don't think that's a good idea. It will easily attract others’ attention if we're together. Moreover,your strength is already at the medium stage. It will be suspicious that you are with me during thetests,” Rocky said, trying to refuse politely.

"All right. I'll go ahead then." Knowing that Rocky's words made sense, Valeria did not say anythingelse and eventually left.

Then, as soon as Valeria was gone, Gloria came and approached Rocky. Although her newappearance was not as beautiful and charming as her original one, she could still use herenchantment technique.

"So, why didn’t you go with Valeria? Are you not going to be her knight in shining armor?" Gloriadeliberately teased him.

"Why are you using your enchantment skill on me when you know that it would not have an effect?Do you want others to replace out your real identity?" Rocky scolded her immediately.

"Humph! So, what if they replace out? I don't really care because I'm not afraid of them.” Gloria rolledher eyes, thinking that she should not be told off. After all, she was indeed confident that it wouldnot have any difference whether they knew that it was her or not.

"Fine. But don't tell me that I didn't warn you. Anyway, I'm leaving. I'll see you later." Rocky knewthat it wouldn't do him any good to talk too much to Gloria, so he tried to leave right away but alsogave her a warning.

It seemed that Rocky was not in a hurry to take the tests. Instead, he took his time and walkedaround the test areas to know the contents of the tests. Then, he decided to take the test whereone's strength would be the focus. He showed his jade token to register and waited in line.

At this moment, there was a huge commotion going on in the area where Rocky would take thetest.

"How is that possible? A Spiritual Emperor at the primary stage has broken a thousand-poundstone? He is too powerful!”

"There's no wonder that he's the elite Spiritual Emperor of the Sovereign Pavilion! Moreover, it issaid that he's the nephew of the current Sovereign Pavilions leader!”

"Moore Duan, the elite Spiritual Emperor of the Sky-suppressing Mansion also broke a thousand-pound Strength Testing Stone. The thousand-pound stone should be the highest record for theSpiritual Emperors at the primary stage. It means that he really is spectacular!”

As Rocky listened to the chatter in the crowd, he saw Holden on the stage. He was the youngmaster of the Sovereign Pavilion that the people were talking about, and they had met before in thesmall border city. He was now in the middle of the stage, wearing a proud expression on his face."Hmm, I didn't expect that Holden would be so powerful. Fortunately, I never had any conflict withhim previously, * Rocky thought, remembering his previous encounter with him.

Soon enough, Holden asked to increase the weight by another two hundred pounds. It seemed thathe was attempting to break the record for the Spiritual Emperors at the primary stage. Thus, thisnaturally attracted the attention of the onlookers.

The area for the test of strength could accommodate ten participants at the same time, but sincethe number of Spiritual Emperors participating at this time was rather low, the number on Rocky'sjade token was already called. It was also his turn to take the test while Holden was attempting tobreak the 1, 200-pound stone.

Then, Rocky raised his hand upon hearing that his number was called.

"Please go to the second test point on the left. Wait for further instructions when you get there," thestaff in charge said

Rocky nodded and walked towards the second test point. On the sideline, he saw the recorder thatwould assist him.

"Okay, you can start. How many pounds do you want to challenge first?" the recorder asked rightaway.

"One thousand," Rocky said without a shred of hesitation.

At this time, the onlookers at the area who heard this were all stunned. They saw that Rocky wasonly a Spiritual Emperor at the primary stage, but he dared to challenge the highest record for hislevel right away.

Of course, even the recorder was dumbfounded. He had confirmed from Rocky's jade token that hewas indeed a Spiritual Emperor at the primary stage. He had been recording the test results formore than half a day, but it was his first time encountering a Spiritual Emperor at the primary stagewho wanted to challenge the highest record right off the bat.
