Rebirth of the Prime Dragon Master -
Chapter 1766 His Real Strength
"What do you mean? I don't get it,” Rocky said while looking at Gloria innocently like a child.
"Have you reached the medium grade of the Emperor Realm already?" Gloria demanded. Sheseemed to have seen through his facade and noticed something.
"What makes you say that?" he asked her in return. Truth be told, he didn't expect her to figure outthat he had hidden his true strength. However, her guess wasn't entirely correct.
"Among the Spiritual Emperors who were sent to spy on you tonight, at least three of them were atthe medium grade. With the strength you displayed publicly, you wouldn't have easily dealt withthem unless they were intimidated by your real strength. Moreover, your extraordinary performanceduring the Spiritual Emperor Contest suggested that your strength should have leveled up to themedium grade long ago..." This proved that Gloria was exceptionally smart to have come up withsuch speculation.
"It seems I can't hide it from you. It's true. My strength has reached the medium grade," Rockyconfirmed and nodded discreetly.
"You're horrible. You know that Valeria and I were so worried about you!" Gloria pouted as she shotRocky a disapproving look. However, Rocky being a medium grade Spiritual Emperor was actuallybeneficial for her.
"I didn't realize you were worried about me." Rocky shrugged.
"Humph. I know you're secretly rejoicing at the fact that two beautiful ladies care about you. Noman has ever been able to make both me and Valeria worry about him so much before you." Gloriashot him a stern glare.
"Well, if there's nothing else for us to talk about, I'll leave now,” Rocky mentioned. He had nointention of continuing this conversation with her because of her exceptional intelligence. He wasafraid that the more he talked, the more skeptical she would be about his true strength.
"There's a nice, cozy room for you to stay in and yet you insist on staying outside? Are you makingan excuse to leave and go on a date with that woman from the Di Clan?" Gloria asked, a hint ofjealousy in her voice.
"Whatever you say!" Rocky turned around, pulled the door open, and left without any furtherexplanation.
Seeing Rocky leave with no hesitation, Gloria felt even more alone. She had no idea how she wouldbe able to capture his heart and make him fall for her now.
Meanwhile, the Spiritual Emperors who were ordered to spy on Rocky returned to report theirreplaceings. The faces of all the Godly Geniuses, including Israel's, fell upon hearing that the apprenticepharmacist who stayed with Rocky wasn't a pharmacist at all. The apprentice pharmacist wasactually a powerful Spiritual Emperor who even killed a low grade Spiritual Emperor with a singlestrike. They had no intention of just sitting back and waiting. Now that they had alerted theiropponents, they were all planning on how to eliminate Rocky.
On the morning of the next day, all the candidates who passed the second test the previous daygathered again in the square of the Boundless Manor.
Today, only Colton appeared before them. Crosby and Enrique had gone back to their own sects todeal with other affairs.
"Everyone, please prepare yourselves before following me to the Heavenly Library," Colton informedthem.
"The third test is to be held in the Heavenly Library!" Rocky heard Eunice exclaim beside himsuddenly upon hearing the announcement.
He and Carla immediately looked to her.
"What kind of a place is the Heavenly Library?" Carla asked curiously.
"The Heavenly Library is a place built by our ancestors blessed with mysterious skills to conductsecret cultivations. What makes it special is that any warrior who possesses a strength equal to orabove the Emperor Realm is given the chance to learn a random unique skill as long as they provedthat they were skilled enough. The catch is that each warrior only has one chance. The HeavenlyLibrary is usually used to assess the Spiritual Emperor's potential,” Eunice explained to the duo."Have you ever been in there?" Rocky asked her.
"Not yet..." Eunice shook her head.
The Heavenly Library's existence wasn't a secret in the Ethereal Region, so many of the SpiritualEmperors and the representatives of the forces watching knew about it as well. When they heardthat the third test was to be held in the Heavenly Library, they were overjoyed because they wouldbe able to learn a unique skill if they were lucky enough. This would be good for their futurecultivation!
Moreover, the skills they would learn there would be extraordinarily rare.
The Spiritual Emperors who weren't able to take the third round of the test funded their chests inannoyance. They regretted not performing well enough in the previous round.
Meanwhile, the candidates who would take part in the third test followed Colton to the HeavenlyLibrary. The audience followed closely behind as well.
The library was a circular, two-story building located at the end of the Boundless Manor.
The library was often used by the Di Clan to test the potential of the Spiritual Emperors. The circularplatform on the second floor was especially used as a reviewing stand. And the Spiritual Emperorsparticipating in the third round would cultivate in seclusion on the first floor.
There was an enchanted barrier separating the first floor from the second floor to prevent anyinterference.
By then, all of the qualified Spiritual Emperors had already entered the first floor while thespectators filled the second floor.
"The third test is about to begin. Please take your seats here, everyone,” Colton announced as hestood in the middle of the field and looked around at all the candidates.
All the Spiritual Emperors, including Rocky, took their seats.
"The third test is actually pretty simple. It will be to test your comprehension. The Heavenly Librarywas built with a special mysterious technique, so you can only imagine the various unique skills thatthe Di Clan has collected over hundreds of years. However, every Spiritual Emperor that enters thisplace has only one chance to learn a skill. Otherwise, he fails and it would be useless to return overand over. The official standard for passing this third test is to learn one unique skill here!" Coltonexclaimed, revealing what the contenders needed to achieve during the third test.
Because the requirements of the test were just as expected, it didn't cause too much of acommotion.
"However, due to the time schedule, the third test will be limited to one day only. Anyone who failsto comprehend a unique skill by then will be eliminated and won't continue to the fourth roundheld in the Holy Heaven Palace,” Colton continued.
The audience burst into an uproar. They knew that the unique skills he mentioned were differentfrom the spiritual skills they were all familiar with. No matter how talented the Spiritual Emperorwas, it would certainly take time to comprehend and master a single spiritual skill. To comprehendand master a unique skill of the Di Clan within a day seemed nearly impossible.
One day would certainly not be enough.
But what they didn’t know was that due to the Heavenly Library's special structure, one'scomprehension and learning process could be sped up. The challenge's time limit of one day wasactually something possible.
"The test begins now!"
As Colton finished, countless words written in glittering gold suddenly appeared on the first floor.They flew through the air, spiraling and intertwining with each other.
Colton disappeared for a few moments before reappearing at the top of the first floor. Then, aninvisible yet powerful force made its way throughout the entire first floor and enveloped all thecandidates firmly in its grasp.
