Chapter 1754 Do An Experiment
"All right. Let me try if I can materialize my Imperial Soul into a solid form!" Excited to do some kind of experiment, Rocky immediately released his Imperial Soul according to the method that was indicated in the Mysterious Soul Formula. Gradually, he was able to condense his Imperial Soul power into a human-shaped figure.
A few moments later, a palm-sized soul shadow appeared and floated in front of him.
However, it only seemed like a ball of nether fire. The soul shadow's eyes were closed, and its entire body was emitting a faint green light.
Then, out of nowhere, the soul shadow opened its eyes and shot out two terrifying streaks of green flames.
After a while, the rampaging green flames in its eyes gradually subsided, but they were still dancing in its eyes, ready to spurt out again at any time.
"I never expected that my Imperial Soul would be so unique! It is rather small but its power is astonishing!" Thrilled by the impression that his Imperial Soul gave him, Rocky steadily approached and stretched out his hand to touch the soul shadow. However, the soul shadow suddenly dodged and acted hostile. It flew in front of Rocky and threw a ferocious kick.
Rocky instantly felt the overwhelming force rushing towards him, so with his quick reflexes, he tried to avoid it in a hurry.
Boom!
As soon as the kick of the soul shadow landed on the ground, huge fissures appeared, and the ground instantly collapsed.
Witnessing this, Rocky was actually dumbfounded. He was taken aback that his Imperial Soul could be this powerful after it was materialized into a human form. He thought that if it could be really used to fight with him, it would be such a huge help.
"Little guy! Who do you think you're attacking? I'm your master!" As Rocky regained his senses, he tried to communicate with his soul shadow and established his authority over it.
The soul shadow seemed to have its own consciousness. Hence, when it heard of Rocky's identity, its former aggressive attitude dissipated. It immediately lowered its head and did not dare act recklessly in front of its master.
"That's more like it. It is my first time unleashing you into a human form, but you'll have to be used to it soon. Anyway, nice to meet you," Rocky greeted with a faint smile.
On the other hand, the soul shadow did not respond to Rocky in any way, but it just stared back in silence.
"Okay. Let me feed you some of my spiritual power first. You have to get stronger as fast as possible." Upon saying this, Rocky released his spiritual power and sent it towards the soul shadow.
Sensing the spiritual power being offered to it, the soul shadow chomped it down without any hesitation. It was tiny in size, but its appetite was like of a feral beast.
In less than thirty minutes, Rocky sensed that a lot of his spiritual power had already been absorbed by the soul shadow. Consequently, the soul shadow had instantly grown in size.
But since the third round of the Spiritual Emperor Contest was just around the corner, Rocky needed to save his spiritual power. Thus, when he deemed that he had already fed his Imperial Soul enough, he withdrew his spiritual power and also recalled it back into his body.
Then, the following day, all of the participants in the Spiritual Emperor Contest gathered on the square of the Boundless Manor. Many of them were anxious since the rankings would be announced in a while. It also meant that they would know if they would proceed to the next round or if they were already eliminated from the contest.
"Everyone, listen carefully. I will be announcing the results of the contest's first two rounds. According to the rules that were set, those of you who were not able to reach the top eighty spots are going to be eliminated." An elder from the Di Clan stood firmly in front of everyone and prepared the list of the qualified participants.
Both the participants and the spectators were excited and nervous. They could not wait to hear the names of the ones who could enter the next round.
Normally, if the pattern would be followed, the middle-level and high-level Spiritual Emperors would have no problem entering the top fifty spots. In other words, the low-level Spiritual Emperors would have to battle among themselves to take the thirty remaining spots. Since there were about sixty low- level Spiritual Emperors in the contest, it meant that at least half of them would be eliminated after the announcement was made.
At this moment, the crowd finally fell into silence as the elder started mentioning the names and numbers of the qualifiers.
"The 80th place, No. 58!" The elder started. All rights © NôvelDrama.Org.
"No. 58! It's me! Oh my god! I made it! I am going to the third round!" Upon the announcement of the last place, an excited voice suddenly burst out from the crowd. It turned out to be a female Spiritual Emperor from the human race.
"... For the 75th place, No. 47 got it!"
Soon enough, the people were able to hear the names and numbers of those ranked at the bottom ten. The crowd was not that surprised because more or less, those were also the participants that they were expecting to be called.
After that, the elder from the Di Clan continued to announce the rankings.
"The 65th place goes to No. 34, Holden!"
"Ha! My strength is even better than what that ranking says!" Holden immediately made an arrogant remark upon hearing his name called.
"Really? I did not expect that he could still enter the third round." Rocky, who was also among the crowd, could not help but shrug his shoulders after Holden's name was announced.
Then, the elder announced several more names. Most of the bottom-ranked participants were basically from the human race.
After a while, the names that appeared on the higher rankings turned out to be filled with low-level Spiritual Emperors from the spiritual race. In an instant, the human Spiritual Emperors that were mentioned earlier were easily overshadowed.
"For the 57th place, No. 79, Eunice!"
"The 56th place, Moore!"
"The 54th place, Carla!"
At this moment, some of the top-performing human Spiritual Emperors were already announced. This caused a commotion in the crowd because they were able to outrank many Spiritual Emperors from the spiritual race. After all, this contest was still a competition between both races, and they could not afford to show disappointing results.
"So, Eunice is still ranked below Moore. However, Carla is ranked quite high. What a surprise!" Rocky could not help smiling upon hearing the results. When he was still in the Sky-suppressing School, Moore was indeed one of the most outstanding disciples, and he had always been excellent in many aspects than Carla. Hence, Rocky was surprised that Carla had surpassed Moore by a wide margin now.
But in the end, Rocky was just happy that both Carla and Eunice were able to enter the third round.
However, after Carla's name was called, the next three rankings all belonged to the Spiritual Emperors of the spiritual race.
At this point, only a few slots were left for the low-level Spiritual Emperors to be able to participate in the next round. Hence, the atmosphere started to become tense. Many of those whose names were not called yet could not help but feel very nervous.
"The 51st place, No. 87!" Another number was announced.
However, the crowd suddenly fell silent, and the people looked at each other with confused looks on their faces. It seemed that they were not familiar with the name that was just called.
In fact, Rocky was the only one familiar with it. After all, it was Gloria's fake name that she used to disguise herself as a member of the Di Clan.
"The 50th place, No. 95!" As the name was announced, the reaction of the people was the same as before. They were unfamiliar with it because it was none other than Valeria's made-up identity.
"Those two are low-level Spiritual Emperors from the human race! They were new Spiritual Emperors of the Di Clan!" someone from the crowd shouted after a while.
Hearing this, the onlookers burst into an uproar again.
Almost everyone knew that the participants from the Di Clan this year were all low-level Spiritual Emperors. But it was really impressive that three of them were able to enter the third round. With this, it could be seen that the Spiritual Emperors of the Di Clan were really talented and powerful.
At this point, only four low-level Spiritual Emperors could still be a part of the top eighty spots. If Michelle and the two outstanding low-level Spiritual Emperors of the spiritual race, Seth and Barron, were not called next, then they might be the top three among the low-level Spiritual Emperors.
Hence, aside from the three, only one among the rest of the low-level Spiritual Emperors could get the chance to be qualified for the next round.
Not long after, the elder announced that Barron got the 49th place.
Most of the low-level Spiritual Emperors had already lost hope. After all, how could they be ranked higher than Barron?
At this moment, Valeria and Gloria also could not help but glance at Rocky. He told them that his performance in the Imperial Soul test was double-checked. But if the Di Clan deemed that his test result was valid, then his name should have been announced already. Therefore, they were really worried that Rocky would not be able to participate in the contest anymore.
But of course, no one knew that this was just a part of Rocky's elaborate plan.
