CHAPTER 1765 RELIEVED

"Yes, the third round is about to end and the next one will be held in a forbidden area of the Di Clan, the Holy Heaven Palace. Some say it's a mysterious place filled with many unknown dangers, but it is the most suitable place for us Godly Geniuses to fight in. Since the standoff between us just ended, the fourth round will be much more interesting," Rocky explained with a confident smile across his face.

"You're crazy!" Gloria couldn't help but snap at him. Never in a million years did she expect that Rocky would be the one to provoke the other Godly Geniuses, seeing that he was still the weakest among the nine. Although he had her and Valeria by his side, it was still far too risky to expose his identity like that.

"Some men sent by the other Godly Geniuses are keeping a close eye on us. How are we going to deal with them?" Valeria asked with concern.

"Let me deal with those bastards. Wait here and don't follow me. I don't want you guys to blow your cover. I'll be back soon." With a smile, Rocky immediately went out the door to confront their enemies.

He first hid in the shadows and disguised himself as a member of the Shura Race no one had seen before with a new mask. He then crept out of the building's edge and shouted, "Stop hiding and come get me!" He quickly dashed towards the back of the mountain, enticing his opponents to chase after him.

A handful of Spiritual Emperors emerged from the shadows and followed him.

Under the pale moonlight, Rocky saw a dozen figures chasing after him.

Not long after, Rocky arrived in a clearing at the back of the mountain and stopped. RêAd lat𝙚St chapters at Novel(D)ra/ma.Org Only

The Spiritual Emperors of the Shura Race arrived nearly at the same time. They were divided into several groups and each took a corner before they glanced at each other. It seemed that they didn't

expect that so many Spiritual Emperors would be sent to test Rocky. Inevitably, they grew wary in their minds.

At the same time, Rocky turned around under the light of the stars and faced them.

When they saw that it was a different face, they all stirred uneasily.

"What?! You aren't the Godly Genius of the Ghost Fief!" One of the Spiritual Emperors gasped in surprise.

"Of course! My master isn't a fool to come see you in person. If you want to meet him, you must first pass my test," Rocky said with a sneer.

"Don't overestimate yourself, lad! Can you really beat us all by yourself? Although we work for different Godly Geniuses, we can surely set aside our differences since we all have the same goal tonight!" a masked Spiritual Emperor sent by Israel shouted.

"He's right! Who do you think you are? You won't stand a second if we gang up on you!" another Spiritual Emperor chimed in with disdain.

"It's up to you. I don't mind fighting you one by one, but you will definitely regret it!" Rocky provoked them even more with a cocky smile.

"Brat, let me be the first one to fight you! I'll put an end to your miserable life!" a thin, shifty-eyed low- level Spiritual Emperor shouted as he swiftly approached Rocky.

Although there was an opponent charging straight at him, Rocky remained steady and didn't move a muscle.

"Take this!" As soon as the Spiritual Emperor got within striking distance, he immediately unleashed his most powerful skill. With a defiant scream, several ghost shadows burst out of the ground and wrapped

Rocky's feet, rendering him unable to move.

At the same time, the low-level Spiritual Emperor stretched out his hand and a huge claw materialized and slashed at Rocky.

Bang!

The overwhelming spiritual power exploded in violent fashion the instant it attacked him. It sent dust and rocks flying high into the clouds, leaving a crater on the ground. Since Rocky was unable to move, he absorbed the force of the blow head on.

"Humph! I thought he was powerful, but it turns out he is just bluffing!" Surprised that Rocky couldn't even conjure up a counterattack, the low-level Spiritual Emperor scoffed. He thought that Rocky must be either dead or badly injured.

But as the dust settled, the confident smile on his face suddenly faded when he felt a chilling aura approach him. When he came to his senses, a figure appeared out of nowhere and landed a gentle slap on his chest before floating back like a ghost.

When the dust finally set, everyone was surprised to see Rocky standing there unharmed.

"You..." The low-level Spiritual Emperor was speechless. He couldn't fathom how Rocky survived his most powerful attack. Before he could even react, a scorching hot flame erupted from his chest, igniting his body and killing him until he was burned into a crisp.

The other Spiritual Emperors were shell-shocked. They didn't even see the moment when Rocky attacked their comrade.

"Is there anyone else who wants to try?" With a cold and soul-piercing stare, Rocky asked everyone with his hands behind his back.

"Who the hell are you?" the masked Spiritual Emperor asked. Judging from Rocky's attack, he guessed that Rocky was at least a middle-level Spiritual Emperor. Even if the three strongest men among them attacked together, he wasn't confident that they would be able to defeat him.

"I'm just an apprentice pharmacist," Rocky replied.

"An apprentice pharmacist?" the masked Spiritual Emperor repeated as his eyes narrowed. According to the previous investigation, there was indeed an apprentice pharmacist tagging along with the Godly Genius of the Ghost Fief. Now it seemed that the title was just a cover.

"If you don't want to fight then please go back and stop wasting my time. As long as you don't disturb my master, we won't be seeing each other again. Otherwise, well, you could look at your comrade to serve as a reminder," Rocky warned.

The remaining Spiritual Emperors remained frozen in place with fear.

Seeing that everyone was scared out of their wits, the masked Spiritual Emperor said, "Please don't be angry. We just wanted to greet your master in person on behalf of our Godly Geniuses. It would mean the world to us if you tell him we said hello."

"What about the others?" Rocky asked as he looked at the other Spiritual Emperors.

"We are just following orders from our masters. Please forgive us if we offended you!" they squealed as they knelt down to ask for forgiveness.

"Okay, I forgive you. You may leave now!" Rocky said as he waved his hand.

The masked Spiritual Emperor and the others exchanged nervous glances and then left one after another.

After that, Rocky went straight back to his room.

As soon as he entered his room, he saw that Valeria and Gloria were still waiting for him inside. They breathed a sigh of relief when they saw him unharmed.

"How did you drive away those Spiritual Emperors?" Gloria asked as she looked at Rocky suspiciously.

"Well, I have my own ways of dealing with them. Anyway, it's getting late. It's better if you go back to your room and rest. We have a big day ahead of us tomorrow. Goodnight!" Rocky said to Valeria with a warm smile.

"Okay, goodnight." Valeria said to him and went straight to her room.

"Hey, how much longer are you going to pretend?" Gloria, on the other hand, kept pestering him as soon as Valeria left.
