Rebirth of the Prime Dragon Master
Chapter 759 Overqualified

Mary wasn't confident in Rocky. All the interviewees looked at him like he was a joke and keptlaughing in his face. None of them believed that Rocky was the one the clan was looking for.

"Young man, what's your name?" Harry asked.

"It's Rookie," replied Rocky impassively. He looked like he wasn't affected by all the mocking staresthe people were giving him.

Meanwhile, as soon as Rocky said his name, the people around them burst into laughter.

And Mary's face broke out into a satisfied smile. She seemed to enjoy the sight of Rocky beinghumiliated.

"Where do you live?" Harry continued to ask, heedless of the ruckus going on around them

"I'm from a remote country,” Rocky added.

"And your parents are..." Before Harry finished his question, Rocky chimed in, "If you want to testme, then do so already. I think Miss Mary can't wait any longer to humiliate me."

At this statement, Harry and other beast curers looked at Mary, whose face had darkened in aninscrutable expression. She nodded at them as if to say “get on with it".

"It's very important to have a solid foundation when learning the art of Beast Curing Skill, and thebasic foundation is to be able to identify the herbs and flowers that are used for healing the woundsof different spirit-manipulated beasts. If you want to be a disciple of the Xiao Clan, you need tolearn to identify more than ten kinds of herbs first," one of the beast curers said to Rocky.

Then, a disciple of the Xiao Clan brought out ten kinds of medicinal materials from a plate andwalked up to Rocky.

He was about to show them to Rocky, but Rocky barely glanced at them and said, "You don't haveto do that."

After hearing that, Mary said, "Now you know how naive you are. You can't even recognize ten kindsof herbs. Don't overestimate yourself.” She sounded haughty and self-satisfied at that moment, asshe thought that Rocky had given up.

"Miss Mary, you misunderstood me. I said I don't want to see them, but that's because I alreadyrecognized them," Rocky said with a small smirk. He said that on purpose since he knew that Marywould misunderstand, and he wanted her to feel like she had won before he slapped her with thetruth. That was more satisfying for him.

Mary immediately frowned. Harry and other beast curers also looked at each other, because Rockydidn't even take a closer look. How could he identify the ten kinds of medicinal herbs with oneglance?

"Then, name all of these,” Mary demanded, as she gestured to the ten herbs. Her eyes werenarrowed in suspicion at Rocky. She was convinced that he was just playing a trick and was trying tobluff his way out of trouble.

"Maud, yarrow... Fire yellow... Shamrock..." Rocky spoke out ten names calmly.

"Miss Mary, he's right," the beast curer said to Mary, surprised.

Meanwhile, Mary couldn't hide the shock she felt. She couldn't imagine how Rocky recognized theherbs when he didn't even look at them properly.

The interviewees around them were shocked as well since they didn't expect much from Rocky at all.It was unthinkable for him to have recognized all herbs with one look.

Juey, who had been worried about Rocky, looked delighted:

"Miss Mary, he should be..." the beast curer who had administered the examination started to saysomething, but he sounded very hesitant, no doubt afraid of Mary. In normal proceedings, if Rockywas able to identify ten kinds of herbs, he would be qualified

But one look at Mary's face was enough to know that she was extremely dissatisfied. "Wait aminute!” she suddenly exclaimed, a stern frown on her face. "He was a member of the Magical BeastHouse, so it is reasonable for him to recognize them.

If others are required to recognize ten kinds, he should be tested with twenty. Guards!"

At once, a disciple approached Mary, and she whispered something to him. With a nod, he hurriedlyleft to fetch whatever she asked for.

On the other hand, Harry and other beast curers were confused with Mary's impromptu test, as itwasn't a standard practice. But they could tell that she wasn't satisfied with Rocky, so they didn't sayanything.

At the same time, Rocky studied Mary intently, aware that she had dark plans for him. He sneeredinwardly and thought, "This woman thinks so highly of herself, it's like she doesn’t understand thatthere is always someone better. She thinks these tests are difficult for me, but I can recognize theseten herbs easily, not to mention, I could name a hundred more.’

Soon, the disciple returned with another plate in his hands. This one was also covered with ten kindsof medicinal herbs. "If you can recognize these ten kinds too, you will pass the first test,” Mary said.Upon hearing her words, Rocky turned to look at the plate. He easily identified the first few herbsbut was stunted by the last one. The last herb looked like grains of rice, only it was black and driedout. It didn't look like any medicinal herb he knew.

Meanwhile, Mary was secretly gleeful at Rocky's silence and confused expression. She was confidentthat Rocky wouldn't be successful this time, as he could never identify the last herb. She made sureof that.

After a long silence, Rocky finally spoke. "The first one is..." He stopped after he identified the firstfew, then he picked up the grain-like herb and asked, "Miss Mary, are you sure you have ten kindsof herbs here? Why does the tenth herb look like rat shit? But I'm sure it's not your fault. Someoneas good as you couldn't have mistaken rat shit for some kind of medicine...”

Mary's face grew pale at Rocky's statement. She was furious, but she couldn't show it, because aswhat Rocky had said, the tenth grade was nothing but dry rat shit. She thought she was beingdevious when she included it into the mix, but he still managed to guess it correctly. And now, hewas even ridiculing her. 'How impertinent!" she thought as she fumed in silence.

Of course, if he was just an ordinary person, he would have been tricked. After all, no one wouldthink that Miss Mary had such evil intentions. But Rocky was expecting that Mary would deliberatelycause trouble for him, so he wasn't caught off-guard.

Mary grudgingly nodded at Harry and the other beast curers, who were looking at her expectantly."All right, I guess he passed the first test. Harry, come and administer the second one.” As shespoke, Mary didn't take her eyes off Rocky. Both of them stared at each other, as they waited forHarry to speak.

Harry also realized that Mary was deliberately creating trouble for Rocky, but he could tell thatRocky was quite skilled, as shown by his performance in the previous test. He studied Rocky for amoment then said, "Like doctors are to human beings, one should be cautious in treating spirit-manipulated beasts. To be a disciple of the Xiao Clan, one must understand some basic skills. Now,tell me, if there is a spirit-manipulated beast that has a cold stomach, in addition to swallowinghard, what does that mean?"

"Well, I remember when the old sow in my family couldn't eat, it often snored in the middle of thenight, and its voice was as loud as thunder. If the spirit-manipulated beast couldn't eat anything,does it snore at midnight?" Rocky made a face as if he was stumped by the question, and hefrowned and folded his arms across his chest, deep in thought.
