Rebirth of the Prime Dragon Master
Chapter 62 The Fury Of The Opponent

"You still dare lie to me?” his opponent shouted, furious to the core. She struck her palms together.Water arrows materialized from the phoenix spiritual power, which was specialized in water, andshot straight at Rocky. The moment she made her move, she felt something wrong as she sensedsomething fall from her waist.

Every onlooker began cheering and breaking out in boisterous chatter as they saw her trousers fall,revealing her beautiful legs. This competition was certainly quite memorable, and they were glad tohave witnessed it.

She seemed to have realized this after hearing the obscene comments from the spectators. Shelooked down and realized that her trousers had fallen to the ground. She immediately lost hercomposure and screamed. She grabbed her pants and left the stage in a hurry, apparentlyforgetting that she was competing with Rocky.

Rocky had used the Deity Finger that blasted her belt to pieces as their spiritual power battled. Heknew this was not a fair way to treat a lady, yet it was the simplest way to win this game.

Rocky, to everyone's shock, had defeated two phoenix spirit manipulators and regained theadvantage to some degree with a score of six to five.

This brought some hope to the Dragon Empire's team, who had long been convinced of theirdefeat. It was an unpredictable and bizarre win as the opponent had merely run away, therebyforfeiting to them. The Holy Dragon Empire team began to regain the hope that they could actuallywin this.

However, they were rather worried. After all, Rocky's last two wins had been out of pure luck andnow his next opponent was also a phoenix spirit manipulator at the fifth grade of Mortal Stage. Noone believed that Rocky could possibly win this round.

Just as they had thought that Rocky already reached his limit, he once again shocked everyone bybringing his strength to the fifth grade of the Mortal Stage and winning the competition.

The extraordinary change and improvement demonstrated on Rocky were quite amazing, and theywere all searching for a possible explanation behind it. It dawned on them that it must havesomething to do with the Holy Dragon Bead.

It was widespread knowledge that Rocky had been removed as a prince for fusing with the HolyDragon Bead. And the fact that he hadn't even made to the first grade of the Mortal Stage after thefusion was a subject of ridicule.

So his winning streak now was nothing short of a miracle, and what seemed to have made itpossible was the Holy Dragon Bead.

After these shocking events, everyone was growing accustomed to Rocky's powerful magic. Theywere expecting more and more. Their anticipation grew with the speculation of the cause behind hisimprovement. With the power of the Holy Dragon Bead, Rocky should have been at the fifth gradeof the Mortal Stage at the fusion. But he had been so weak at the time that he didn't have thestrength to do anything.

Now he had just proven himself as much more than the weak, pathetic boy they had all sneered at.But with this, their expectations of him grew as well. For they believed that with the power of theHoly Dragon Bead, anything could happen.

Now everyone, including officials and spirit manipulators who had once looked down on him, wasthinking the same thing. They seemed to have acknowledged that Rocky was no longer that inutileprince. He was a rising star of the Holy Dragon Empire!

"The fifth grade of the Mortal Stage! It looks like Basil has really acquired the power from the HolyDragon Bead. Your Majesty, do you still remember what we discussed before?" Lena had regainedher calm composure after the initial bout of excitement from seeing Rocky, but she was still veryproud of Rocky deep down. Something more important came to her mind, which was the thing shediscussed with the emperor after Rocky had been removed as a prince.

"The Holy Dragon Bead..." Lena had forgotten about the presence of Felicia, who immediatelyturned to the emperor and asked, wide-eyed, "Your Majesty, I believe you own me an explanation.”The emperor looked a little unsettled, yet he maintained his composure. "Well... We didn't mean tokeep this from you. The royal spirit manipulator on that stage is the one that fused with the HolyDragon Bead."

"Your Majesty..." Priest Dean frowned as he never thought that the emperor would admit that Rockywas the royal spirit manipulator that fused with the Holy Dragon Bead.

"It must be him. No wonder he could make such an impressive breakthrough in such a short timeframe. However, he is only at the fifth grade of the Mortal Stage. There are still two members left inour team, one of whom is already at the sixth grade of the Mortal Stage now. So victory will stillbelong to our Magic Phoenix Empire!" Erica proclaimed with some arrogance, speaking as if theyhad already won the competition.

"Why did Priest Dean deny it then?" Felicia still hung on to this and questioned them with a littlehint of anger in her voice.

"Priest Dean denied it out for the protection of our Holy Dragon Empire. Because that spiritmanipulator has another identity... He's... my son.” The emperor paused for a second before herevealed this shocking truth. His voice was low and bitter.

Priest Dean and Prince Alston, as well as all the other officials who heard this, were all extremelyshocked. The moment Basil had been abolished as a prince, he was officially no longer part of theroyal family. Yet the emperor admitted in front of Felicia, who was the imperial preceptor of theMagic Phoenix Empire that this young man was his son. This was really out of the place given thecircumstances. After all, at this level, anything that the emperor said must be real. If not, he wouldmake it real himself.

Lena was the only one who remained calm among them. She was the only one who knew the truereason why the emperor had revealed it to everyone. Months ago, right after Basil had fused withthe Bead, the emperor had told Lena that if his son could somehow manage to improve his power,he would make an exception and restore his position as a prince again.

The real reason for the emperor's decision to remove his son from princedom was to fend offunwanted attention. After all, it was a big deal to have successfully fused with the Holy DragonBead.

"So not only he is the royal spirit manipulator who fused with the Holy Dragon Bead, but he is alsothe son of Your Majesty? I heard that after the Holy Dragon Bead had been declared as the holytreasure of the Holy Dragon Empire, the emperor at the time announced that whoever in his royalfamily could fuse with the Holy Dragon Bead would be his successor to lead the Holy DragonEmpire. In this case, no wonder you are trying deliberately to hide his identity..." Felicia finally puttwo and two together.

The emperor was silent in response. It had long been known that Alston was predetermined tobecome his successor. What Felicia said was absolutely right. At the time when the Holy DragonBead was declared as the holy treasure, the emperor had indeed proclaimed that whomever in hisfamily would be his successor if he or she could successfully fuse with the Holy Dragon Bead. It wasunderstandable now why the emperor had concealed the truth.

Felicia's words stirred up some outbursts among the officials and royal family members, whoimmediately started to discuss among themselves. The selection of the next emperor determinedtheir life to some degree. They were all concerned about what it could mean for them.

Even Alston, who had always shown restraint, could no longer hold back. Looking absolutelyflabbergasted, he stood up as if he was about to protest before Priest Dean stopped him andwhispered something into his ears to calm him down. If not for Priest Dean, he would have certainlystepped beyond his boundaries.

At this moment, Rocky's next opponent came onto the stage. He was also at the fifth grade of theMortal Stage yet more powerful than the last. Rocky frowned. The trick he had used last timeprobably wouldn't work on this fellow.
