Rebirth of the Prime Dragon Master
Chapter 1755 Let's Wait And See

"Hey! Maybe there's still hope! Don't give up!" Valeria swiftly encouraged Rocky who stood next toher. If he couldn't qualify for the third round, then they would lose the advantage of competing withthe other Godly Geniuses.

On the other hand, Holden took pleasure in Rocky's misfortune when he saw that the latter waslikely going to lose this round of the competition.

"Humph! I thought this guy was supposed to be special. Yet he turns out to be just anothermediocre man. Let's see if he can still manage to hold his head high on his shoulders once he losesthis round!" he snorted.

Hall Leader Chen, who Rocky had offended during an earlier encounter, was gloating alongsideHolden.

"He's hopeless! But this is no surprise,” Michelle, who had been paying close attention to Rocky,sneered at him as well once she saw that there was no hope in him proceeding to the next round.At that moment, the elder of the Di Clan announced, "The No. 99 participant is ranked as the 48th.""It's him! The one whose soul potential was proven to be at the middle grade of the Heaven Stage!His ranking is higher than that of Barron who is from the spiritual race...” someone pointed out andexplained immediately.

Meanwhile, Valeria's and Gloria's eyes widened in surprise as well. Of course, the Spiritual Emperorsfrom the human race including Michelle and Holden were shocked as well.

The audience was now in an uproar. No one expected Rocky to rank higher than Barron, a low-grade Spiritual Emperor of the spiritual race who was second only to Michelle and Seth.

"Damn it! How is that possible? His ranking is exceptionally high!" Holden cursed and immediatelylost his temper.

Hall Leader Chen was disheartened by the news too.

On the other hand, Michelle's face clearly showed that she was feeling mixed emotions right nowdespite not saying anything. Rocky's result took her by surprise.

"You've reached such a high ranking!" Valeria exclaimed as she gave Rocky beside her a faint smile,hinting that she was delighted by his result.

"I'm quite lucky," he replied coolly.

"Great! I knew this would happen!" Carla, who was standing by Eunice, commented thoughtfully.She knew from the first moment she laid eyes on Rocky that he was special and that he wouldundoubtedly provide unexpectedly magnificent performances.

Gloria, who was paying attention to the rankings too, had a meaningful look in her eyes uponhearing the news.

To nobody's surprise, Michelle and Seth occupied the following two rankings.

The rankings of the middle-grade Spiritual Emperors and the high-grade Spiritual Emperors weresoon announced.

"The third round will be held after the challenge competition. I hope that all the candidates who willenter the third round will have a good rest and stock up on their energy. You all will need it..." theelder of the Di Clan added after he announced all the rankings before he turned around and left.The Spiritual Emperors and the onlookers on the square immediately dispersed.

Already, several of them shifted unwelcoming gazes towards Rocky from afar.

The following day, the challenge competition that was temporarily set up officially began.

The reason for this competition was that there were still numerous powerful Spiritual Emperors whodidn't have the chance to participate in the Spiritual Emperor Contest. Hence this competition wasspecially arranged, to fairly determine who would move to the next round.

The rules of the challenge competition were very simple. Two tests would be conducted and thechallengers would be ranked according to the number of points they earned. The resulting topthree sets of points would be compared to the points of those who had been selected to proceed tothe third round. Whoever had the higher number of points would continue to participate in thecontest.

To conclude, only three vacancies were available.

But even then, many low-grade and middle-grade Spiritual Emperors from the human race and thespiritual race still joined the challenge competition.

Meanwhile, a Spiritual Emperor who went by the name of Basil was suddenly shot to fame andcaught the attention of numerous onlookers all throughout the challenge competition. A rumorwhich stated that he was from the Sky-suppressing School and that he was friends with Carla andMoore spread like wildfire. Apparently, he achieved several astonishing feats in both the school andthe army so many times but later suddenly disappeared without a trace!

"Is that the Basil we've been hearing of?"

"That has to be him! He's no ordinary individual. Back then, he was a talented disciple of the Sky-suppressing School whose talent was no inferior to that of Carla and Moore..."

"Really? But he appears to be much stronger than the two of them now in terms of strength!”

At that moment, many spectators in the strength test area eyed Rocky in shock as they witnessedhim crack and pulverize a two-thousand-pound Strength Testing Stone.

It turned out that Rocky changed his identity from Godly Genius to Basil. He no longer had to hidehis identity.

Hearing what the onlookers had to say about him, he didn't care one bit. After all, he achieved somuch as Basil. Although the glorious period didn't last long, it still managed to cause quite asensation. So his return would undoubtedly be everyone's focus.

Once he left the strength testing area, Rocky proceeded to another test. He found himself beingfollowed by a large group of onlookers. They all wanted to be some of the first to witness his testresults.

He no longer had to keep a low profile since he now competed as Basil and not as the GodlyGenius.

Rocky's sudden participation in the challenge competition as Basil naturally took some of theSpiritual Emperors who knew Basil by surprise. Carla immediately took Eunice aside and headedtowards the test area Rocky was in. She didn't look for him but, instead, silently watched himcompete.

Eunice already knew he would appear as Basil, but she continued to pretend she was unaware ofthis.

"He finally appeared. He's still alive!" Eunice pouted, pretending to be furious.

"He seems to have changed a lot!" Carla noticed. She looked calm observing him, but her heart andthe emotions within it were anything but.

"I don't think so! Perhaps you feel this way because you care about him deeply,” Eunice pointed outas she stared at Carla. She was aware that the latter had feelings for Rocky. Although Carla nevershowed it, Eunice could tell from her behavior that she missed him dearly.

"Don't talk nonsense!" Carla's face turned red with embarrassment.

"By the way, let's go talk to him once he's finished with these tests,” Eunice proposed. She knewCarla would want to

"No, that's unnecessary. If he remembered me... I mean us, then he would come to us first." Carlawas never the one to initiate first as a woman. She thought perhaps Rocky had simply forgotten her."Alright." Eunice knew what Carla was thinking, so she stopped insisting.

Meanwhile, when Rocky finished his strength test, his set of points had already ranked within thetop five. This caused a stir once more because, up until now, no one knew the limits of his strength.His set of points had already surpassed those of many middle-grade Spiritual Emperors.Meanwhile, the other Spiritual Emperors who participated in the challenge competition were tryingtheir best to enter into the top three as well.

But it was still difficult to determine who would eventually succeed in reaching the top three spots!
