Rebirth of the Prime Dragon Master -
Chapter 1770 Go Back First
"Ha! You are just saying that! I know what I'm doing!" Actually, Gloria knew that everything Rockysaid was reasonable. However, she was not willing to admit that she was in the wrong.
"Look at Valeria. She controls herself better than you.”
"So what? It still doesn't change the fact that she's no match to me!”
"Why do you have to be so stubborn? Fine! Just listen to me carefully and understand my point. Ifyou don't expose your real strength, the other Godly Geniuses won't get suspicious of your identity.And if they don't know who you really are, they won't put up their guards against you. It means thatyou can freely attack them whenever you want,” Rocky explained with all seriousness.
"Then, why don't you tell me your plan first?" Finally, Rocky got Gloria to listen. Interested by thepoint that he made, she leaned over and was ready to hear what Rocky had to say.
On the other hand, Rocky knew that the only way he could make Gloria listen to him was that herevealed something interesting to her. Then, he whispered a few words to her. Upon hearing them,Gloria's expression immediately brightened up, and a faint smile appeared on her delicate face."Even you know that this is an excellent idea. Now, just listen to me and everything will go well."Rocky remarked after he let Gloria know his plan.
"All right, fine! I got it already!" Gloria snorted but was actually smiling inwardly because she alreadygot what she wanted. Then, she went ahead and left.
After a while, Rocky also left as well.
Because of his fantastic performance earlier and having mastered the Holy Spirit Skill, Rocky becamea major sensation in the Spiritual Emperor Contest again. Right now, everyone treated him as a darkhorse, and every attention was focused on him.
Of course, Gloria also gained a lot of attention because of her astounding performance in theHeavenly Library. She was also regarded as a very formidable opponent.
However, since Rocky had successfully prevented her from reaching the tenth grade at the very lastmoment, she was overshadowed and eventually not as hot a topic as Rocky, which was actuallywhat he wanted all along.
Just as Colton announced before, the Spiritual Emperors would enter the Holy Heaven Palace in thenext round. It was going to be a tough battle for each of them, so they didn't dare to waste the timegiven to them to recover their strength.
Moreover, many of the participating Spiritual Emperors had already secretly made alliances withothers in order to ensure that they would do well in the trial.
At the same time, since Rocky had exhibited such magnificent performances in the first threerounds, many masters actually wanted to form an alliance with him. However, Rocky directlyavoided them. After all, it would just hinder his plans even more.
After staying for about a day in the Magic Spiritual Space, Rocky went back to the Boundless Manorin the evening. Before the fourth round began, he wanted to discuss with Valeria the tactics thatthey should do in the Holy Heaven Palace.
However, before he could enter the manor, a beautiful figure suddenly appeared, and it seemedthat she had been waiting for Rocky for a long time already.
Then, Rocky turned around and revealed a playful smile upon seeing who it was. It turned out to beMichelle, who had somehow changed her opinions of him after everything that happened recently."Miss Michelle, I take it that it's not a coincidence that you're here. What can I do for you?" Rockystared at her and asked straightforwardly.
"You must be mistaken. I have nothing to say to you. I just passed by this place by chance,” Michellereplied with a proud tone while raising her chin upward.
"Miss Michelle, you don't have to beat around the bush. If you have something to say, just out withit. I have time to listen.” Of course, Rocky did not believe what she just said. If she personally visitedhim, then he deemed that he might as well listen to what she had to say.
"Well... I admit that we had some misunderstandings before. In fact, I didn't mean to go againstyou.” Out of the blue, Michelle spoke in a peaceful tone. Not a single hint of hostility could befound in the words she said.
On the other hand, Rocky could just smile inwardly because he had already predicted this tohappen.
"I know that you don't have any ill-intent, so I did not take it seriously. You have nothing to worryabout,” Rocky replied, just going along with what she wanted to hear.
"That's good to hear then. Actually, the real reason why I came today is to reconcile with you. If it'snot too much to ask, I'd like to be friends with you," Michelle uttered softly.
"Really? I'm deeply flattered!" "You don't have to be so modest!
I should actually be the one who treats you with more respect...” Up until now, Michelle had alwaystaken for granted the fact that her talent could stand up against geniuses around her age. However,when she participated in the Spiritual Emperor Contest, it was the moment that she recognized herweaknesses. Even though she was strong, she still lacked in many aspects. Especially after seeingRocky's remarkable performance in the Heavenly Library, she got the shock of her life. Therefore,she felt that instead of being enemies with him, she could befriend him and take advantage of hisstrength. After all, it would be pretty helpful for her, especially in the fourth round.
"Well, I already assumed why you came to meet me. The fourth round, which will take place in theHoly Heaven Palace, cannot be passed by fighting alone. So, you actually want me to cooperate withyou. Am I right?" Rocky said without a hint of hesitation.
"It seems that you really are perceptive. I guess there is no need to hide it from you. Yes, I want usto become allies,” Michelle declared firmly.
"Although it would be great if I could team up with you, I don't think that it's the right time..." Rockysaid as he let out a bitter smile.
"Why is that?" Michelle could not believe what she just heard. She did not expect that Rocky wouldblatantly turn her down.
"It's not because of you. I just think that it will cause unnecessary trouble if I chose to side with amember of either the Sky-suppressing Sect or the Sovereign Sect. Thus, I already decidedbeforehand that I will just fight alone,” Rocky answered with all honesty.
During the fourth round, the trial in the Holy Heaven Palace would inevitably become a tripartiteconfrontation. The members of both the Sky-suppressing Sect and the Sovereign Sect would surelyestablish their own camp to take down the other. At the same time, the Godly Geniuses might alsoform a team to eliminate other hindrances in the contest. Thus, the open strife during the trialwould be unimaginably fierce. On the other hand, Rocky did not want to be a part of it.
After all, he could just play it safe until the three forces had almost dismantled each other. When thetime was perfect, he would take action and achieve his goal.
"Humph! You will regret turning me down!" Michelle immediately reverted to her usual arrogant selfas her pride consumed her.
"Well, I already told you what I have to say. Good night, Miss Michelle. I hope you do well in thetest!” Rocky did not want to argue anymore, so he just dismissed her immediately.
"You!" Michelle could not help but clench her fists because she did not expect that everything wouldgo downhill so fast.
However, before she could say anything more, Rocky already turned around and went upstairs.
At the same time, Michelle could just look at Rocky's back with anger and frustration.
As Rocky went upstairs, he went back to his room first. Later on, he asked Gloria to call Valeria overso that they could discuss their strategy for the test.
When the three of them were already there, Rocky started discussing. "Once you enter the HolyHeaven Palace tomorrow, I want you to team up with Carla and Eunice for the time being,” Rockytold Valeria directly.
"Huh? Why? Isn't it going to be safer if we take action together? I heard that the Spiritual Emperorsof the human race and the spiritual race have already formed secret alliances!" Valeria immediatelyquestioned Rocky's decision, thinking that it would not be efficient.
"You already know the answer. If you are with me, you will just become a target of many people.”Rocky explained straightforwardly.
"What are you talking about? It is more dangerous if you go alone!"
"Don’t worry about me. I can protect myself. I'll be just fine. Besides, I also plan to face some GodlyGeniuses alone," Rocky uttered with a determined look on his face.
"Are you insane? Don't do that! Even with your current strength, you can't deal with all of themalone!" Valeria already saw how Rocky could get reckless at times. Thus, she was afraid that hemight act impulsively and end up being in danger.
"Don't underestimate my master. I'm sure he can handle himself,” Gloria butted in and firmlysupported Rocky's plan. After all, she hoped that if Rocky acted by himself, she could get more timewith him alone.
At the same time, although Valeria was still worried about Rocky's plan, she knew that once hemade up his mind, no one could change it. It would just be useless to object, so she had no choicebut to compromise.
After everything was already settled, Rocky asked Valeria to go back to her room already so that shecould rest.
