CHAPTER 871 RESURRECTION

The competition hall immediately broke into an uproar. Everyone looked at each other in dismay and

began whispering. No one knew why the spirit-manipulated beast in front of Rocky had suddenly died!

The members of the Cao Clan were equally shocked, but they were also overwhelmed with worry.

According to the rules of the beast curing competition, if a spirit-manipulated beast suddenly died

during treatment, its beast curer would immediately be disqualified as they must have made a big

mistake. In that case, the beast curer of the opposite clan would automatically win.

At the sight of the abnormal death of his spirit-manipulated beast, Rocky became serious and his eyes

turned cold. He looked up at Tate and found him staring back with a sinister smile on his face.

As soon as he saw that, Rocky knew what had happened. The Qi Clan had played a dirty trick because

they were afraid that he would win the last round of the competition and lead the Cao Clan to victory.

Since they planned to surpass the Cao Clan in the Beast Master Contest and replace it to become the

largest clan in the Timber Deity Empire, they would obviously not allow it to happen.

Upon seeing the sudden death of Rocky's spirit-manipulated beast, the five judges on the platform

immediately had a brief discussion. Then, they announced that the victory of the last round belonged to

the Qi Clan due to Rocky's fatal error.

Hearing this result, the audience once again burst into an uproar, this time out of disappointment. The

final round was supposed to be thrilling and exciting, but the inexplicable death of Rocky's spirit-

manipulated beast had led to the competition ending suddenly.

Besides, many of them had their suspicions about what had gone on. After all, the Beast Curing Skills

that Rocky had displayed in the first two rounds proved that he was an expert in beast curing. So how

could he have made such a stupid mistake? The only logical explanation was that there was more to

the story than met the eye.

Nevertheless, they could not accuse the Qi Clan of cheating without evidence.

When the members of the Cao Clan heard the result, they scowled in displeasure. They had been so

close to victory but in the end, their hopes had been crushed mercilessly.

Of course, there were two exceptions. Tod and Freddy sneered when they heard the result; they could

start planning on how to take over Lucilla's position in the Cao Clan.

"Hang on, I have something to ask the judges." Just when everyone thought that the Beast Master

Contest was over and the Qi Clan had won, a loud voice suddenly caught everyone's attention.

They turned their gaze to the stage only to find that it was Rocky.

Tate, who was standing nearby, snorted, "Hey, you've already lost. Are you messing around?"

Ignoring him, Rocky directly walked towards the judges.

He stopped in front of them and let his eyes sweep over all five of the well-respected judges.

"Esteemed judges, why did you announce their victory?" he asked calmly.

The five judges exchanged glances, trying to suppress their alarm. One of them finally opened his

mouth and said, "We have already explained it. Your spirit-manipulated beast died during the

competition, so according to the rules, you have lost this round. Therefore, the Qi Clan has won the

Beast Master Contest."

"Is my spirit-manipulated beast really dead?" Rocky asked.

Everyone in the competition hall was taken aback upon hearing this. It was obvious that his spirit-

manipulated beast was dead. It had shown no sign of life at all, so why was Rocky claiming otherwise?

"What do you mean? Are you questioning our judgment? Your spirit-manipulated beast is obviously

dead," another judge said angrily.

"Your judgment may be right. But I can bring it back to life. So, I hope you can continue the

competition," Rocky said firmly with a cold expression on his face.

It seemed that it was the first time for the five judges to encounter such a situation. They exchanged

speechless glances, all thinking the same thing. They did not believe that the dead spirit-manipulated

beast could be brought back to life by any Beast Curing Skill in the world.

"That's impossible. Your spirit-manipulated beast is dead. Just accept that you've lost this round," one

of the judges finally said, rejecting Rocky's proposal.

"Aren't you curious about the reason why my spirit-manipulated beast died all of a sudden during the

treatment? If you really want to announce my defeat, go ahead. But I'll ask the Cao Clan to perform a

thorough inspection of my spirit-manipulated beast, because I suspect that someone has tampered

with it. If my suspicion turns out to be correct, your judgments will be questioned. Considering your

reputation in the Timber Deity Empire, it would be a bad thing for you to be partial and unfair in your

judgment," Rocky said, playfully raising his eyebrows.

"How dare you threaten us?" one of the judges asked softly. All of them were stunned and worried after

hearing Rocky's threat. The truth was, with their experience, they could immediately tell that something

was wrong with the sudden death of Rocky's spirit-manipulated beast. However, they had turned a

blind eye to it. After all, the general public favored the victory of the Qi Clan. What was more, the Qi

Clan had the support of Princess Alyssa.

Never had the five judges imagined that Rocky would be bold enough to challenge them openly like

this. But even though the fault was on their side, they were more likely to be questioned if they

suddenly changed their judgment now, so they didn't intend to give in.

Therefore, the situation was deadlocked.

Just then, a cold and arrogant voice rang out. "Let's continue the competition!"

Everyone turned toward the source of the voice in shock. They had not noticed the two figures that had

appeared next to the platform in silence.

And one of them was powerful, cold, arrogant, and exceedingly beautiful. holds © this.

There was only one person in the whole Timber Deity Empire who possessed such an imposing aura

and stunning appearance—Alyssa.
