Rebirth of the Prime Dragon Master -
Chapter 302 Encounter Sheridan
The area outside the bamboo forest echoed in shocked silence. All the audience stood inamazement as they looked at each other as if to check if the others had also seen what they saw.Up until that moment, everyone believed that Rocky would lose. He was the underdog of thecontest, and the situation was not favorable to him. And yet, contrary to everyone's expectations, hewas able to turn the tide and turn a crushing defeat into a victorious win.
"The strength of that strike was almost at the eighth grade of the Earthly Stage. It's unimaginablehow he had reached the eighth grade of the Earthly Stage!" Isis exclaimed in surprise. Her handfluttered by her side, unable to sit still in her astonishment.
Upon Isis' exclamation, chaos erupted from the audience. The commanders and officers tuned toeach other in disbelief. They asked each other but no one had any real answers as they all drewblanks. They could only guess and those with experience had better hypothesis than others.
"At this time, he was still hiding his real strength?" Marin’s eyes widened in surprise as she stared atthe field in front of her.
However, no one could accurately judge if the attack they had seen was deliberately made or if itwas struck accidentally.
"Ha-ha-ha.." Lance who had been silent throughout the debacle abruptly burst into hearty laughter.He could not hide his amazement, and marveled at the scene in front of him. "Instead of using thepower at the eighth grade of the Earthly Stage, he used the power at the sixth grade of the EarthlyStage so his opponents would underestimate him. He also deliberately revealed his flaws to pretendto end up in elimination when actually his previous opponent was just a dummy and his real targetwas another Deputy Commander. He is really skilled in stratagem. It is nearly impossible to defendeffectively against him!"
Lance explained to those around him patiently, uncovering the mystery to them.
This statement instantly sparked debate among those who were able to hear. Heated discussionfrom the commanders and officers caused some of the audience to look at their direction when thenoise became too loud. They thought of Rocky as a monster. They could not believe how he wasable to come up with such an ingenious plan amidst a dire situation, how he made use of hisconcealed power to turn the tables.
"If he is so powerful, why didn't he go all out from the very beginning?" one of the commandersasked curiously.
"If he had shown his hand right from the start, his opponents would have been on the defensive,making them harder to beat. Although Rocky was more powerful than the two DeputyCommanders, he also knew that there was no assurance he would completely defeat them. In thisway, he used the power at the sixth grade of the Earthly Stage to mislead his opponents. Then hepretended to be eliminated to put the Deputy Commander in red at easy and keep him blind to hisplans. As a result, it was too late when he recognized Rocky's true power. In this way, his plansworked... What exactly is in this man’s mind? How could he devise such an ingenious plan?!" Isiscouldn't help but express her appreciation. Even she, if she was in a similar situation, may notconceive a plan like that. However, it seemed that Rocky was clear about his plans and how heshould execute it right from the start.
Except Rocky, the six spirit manipulators who won in the first round and entered the second roundwere all Deputy Commanders. Among them, three came from the east-southeast military camp.The whole team composed of Deputy Commander Chen and other two Deputy Commanders werecrushed under the attack of the team made up of spirit manipulators of the east-southeast militarycamp.
Therefore, Rocky who was representing the northeast military camp, entered the second round asthe only one who was not a Deputy Commander.
Since the second round would be held on the next day, Rocky and other spirit manipulators fromthe northeast military camp were arranged to rest in the headquarters.
After they arrived early in the residence, Rocky decided to go and see Sue and Rubygon. As soon ashe walked out of the residence, he saw an old man appear before him.
"Sheridan?" Rocky greeted the man in surprise. His eyebrows lifted in amazement at the unexpectedvisitor.
"Ha-ha! Rocky, my good disciple... I heard that you performed very well today. Your victory is anhonor for me also!" Sheridan said cheerfully as he patted Rocky's shoulder.
"How dare you appear before me? Have you forgotten that you abandoned me?" Rocky bellowed.He advanced forward, face darkened and eyes clouded with revenge. However, he hesitated whenSheridan smiled at him mysteriously and asked, "Why don't we have a drink, boy?" Sheridan lookedquite excited about the idea.
"A drink?" Rocky licked his lips. He had never gone to the brothel in this world, so he was a littlecurious about it.
When Sheridan saw that Rocky was interested in his proposed outing, he winked at him happily anddragged him away.
They hadn't gone far before they met Marin, who immediately changed course to greet them."Where are you going?" Marin asked, feeling curious because Sheridan took Rocky in a hurry. Theyseemed to be headed for somewhere important.
"We're going to the place where men should go. Commander Marin, would you like to come withus?" Rocky hinted deliberately.
"I'm a woman. I don't go to that kind of place. Or do you think I'm like a man?" Marin asked whilestaring at Rocky. She looked at him in challenge, hinting that she understood his words.
"Marin, let's talk about this later. We have to leave now!" Sheridan interrupted them and started towalk away.
Rocky shrugged his shoulders as if to say, “What else can you do?" With a last smile and nod atMarin, he turned and left with Sheridan.
"Like master, like disciple. You're both good for nothing fools,” Marin grumbled, looking at Rocky'sretreating back.
Before long, the duo arrived at the Flower Street, the most famous street in the Evian City. The streetwas brightly lit with red lanterns, buzzing with noise and excitement. Women of different stylesstood in front of the brothel doors, soliciting the passing guests.
As expected, only men were present on the streets, besides the women from the brothels.Moreover, none of them could resist the temptation. Within a few steps, they would be pulled intoone of the brothels by the women.
“I've never seen this place before, ' Rocky sighed in heart. He felt a bit innocent, looking curiously athis surroundings. Though he had read some words and watched some films about the ancientbrothels, it was quite a different experience to see it in person.
"Lad, this must be your first time coming here. If you want, I could arrange a woman for you. Don'tsay I never treat you well. Ha-ha!" Sheridan suggested.
"Really? Are you serious?" Rocky replied blankly. It seemed that Sheridan really thought of him asjust a naive boy. In fact, in the modern world, he had romance with many kinds of women.
While in this world, he had only one experience which was accidental and unpleasant. For him, itwas like a nightmare. Though he had been framed up, the experience couldn't be erased from hismemories. He knew it was more painful for the woman he had hurt. Although he didn't intend toevade his guilty, he had repressed those terrible after being expelled to the frontier. At the back ofhis mind, he thought maybe he was the one who should be forgotten by her.
