The Medallion

Chapter 1747 Her Warning

Upon entering the Imperial Soul Testing Array, Rocky saw numerous participants waiting in line for the test.

The testing area could accommodate twenty candidates at a time, so, similar to the Myriad Illusionary Array, it would be easy to separate the strong from the weak. Both arrays were quite different from each other. But in this test, the candidates wouldn't be separated into different groups. This meant that all the Spiritual Emperors ranging from the low-grade to the middle-grade and even the high-grade would be competing with each other. This would also help differentiate the potential of the Imperial Soul among all the candidates.

As soon as Rocky arrived, several candidates who just finished the test were waiting for the results.

Not long after, they were finally announced.

Their soul potential ranged from the middle grade of the Human Stage to the middle grade of the Earth Stage.

One of the most notable was Joseph whose soul potential managed to reach the high grade of the Earth Stage.

It turned out that only a high grade Spiritual Emperor among them had his soul potential proven to be at the high grade of the Earth Stage.

Rocky then paid close attention to the soul potential ranking list that was just released. He discovered more than thirty Spiritual Emperors' test results.

The highest soul potential was at the high grade of the Earth Stage and its owner was a high grade Spiritual Emperor from the spiritual race. Three of the candidates had their soul potential proven to be at the middle grade of the Earth Stage, and five at the low grade of the Earth Stage. The rest of them

all had the soul potential at the Human Stage. In particular, less than ten candidates' soul potentials were at the high grade of the Human Stage.

"I didn't see Valeria's and Gloria's results. Perhaps they didn't take the test yet," Rocky murmured as he carefully checked the results and failed to see any remarks about Valeria or Gloria. This concluded his theory from earlier.

As he spoke, Carla and Eunice appeared. The duo immediately caught the attention of the entire audience and soon found many admiring eyes locked on them.

They were the newest Spiritual Emperors in the Ethereal Region. Their superior talent paired with their outstanding beauty naturally made them the center of everyone's attention!

Carla gave Rocky a slight nod of her head.

This puzzled Eunice and left her wondering. 'Have they already met in private?' she thought. Rocky never told her about it!

Moments later, Rocky walked up to Carla and said, "Nice to see you again, Miss Yu."

"Nice to see you too," she replied with a rare, charming smile.

This caught the Spiritual Emperors in the audience off guard because Carla was a well-known aloof beauty. It was difficult for any man to get close to her, let alone talk to her. Yet Rocky managed to make that happen. It was hard for the Spiritual Emperors to believe that he could encourage her to greet him first with a smile on her face!

Eunice thought the entire situation was odd as well. She immediately asked, "Since when did you two know each other? Why wasn't I informed about any of this?"

"We just met a few days ago," Rocky replied with an understatement.

"Really?" Eunice asked as she suspiciously looked at Carla again. Material © NôvelDrama.Org.

The latter confirmed with a quick nod of her head.

"It never occurred to me that you'd know her in private. Tell me, what exactly are your intentions?" Eunice continued to prod with her questions.

"I'm innocent! I assure you I'm nothing less than a gentleman. What other motives would I possibly have? Furthermore, it was Miss Yu who took the initiative to make my acquaintance," Rocky revealed plaintively.

"He's right. I initiated our meeting with each other," Carla explained in his defense.

"I see! It's all cool with me, then. Carla, I'd steer clear of this guy if I were you. He's dangerous!" Eunice deliberately exaggerated with a shrug of her shoulders.

"Okay." As she glanced at Rocky, Carla knew Eunice was joking. She didn't take her warning seriously.

"Well, I guess introductions are unnecessary since we all know each other. Now that we've met, let's go ahead and take this exam together. The Imperial Soul Testing Array is more exciting and interesting than the Myriad Illusionary Array," Eunice suggested. She already took the test in the Imperial Soul Testing Array after she was promoted to low-grade Spiritual Emperor. She proved in that test that she had the potential to own an Imperial Soul. This gave her an even deeper understanding of how it would feel in the Imperial Soul Testing Array.

"I've long heard that the Di Clan possesses a mysterious array specially used to test the potential of the Imperial Soul. It's unique even in the entire Ethereal Region," Carla commented with a curious look all over her face.

After that, Rocky and the others showed their jade tokens to sign up before resuming chatting with each other.

Not long after, several more candidates arrived including Moore, Holden, and Hall Leader Chen whom Rocky had previously offended.

Hall Leader Chen soon noticed Rocky and Eunice. He had seen them before the opening of the Spiritual Emperor Contest and was surprised to discover they would be participating in it as well. Later, he asked around and found out they were both Spiritual Emperors of the Di Clan. He didn't dare to mess with any of them. Rocky had played tricks on him during their last encounter with a poisoned needle which greatly embarrassed him. He grew angrier this time when he saw Carla, who he admired dearly, by Rocky's side.

Wasting no time, Hall Leader Chen couldn't restrain his anger any longer. He walked up to Rocky with a vehement glare and shouted, "You're not going to escape from me today, boy!"

"Hello, Hall Leader Chen of the East Grand Sect. It's nice to see you here!" Eunice greeted at once. To be honest, she wasn't surprised to see him here. She expected him to show up.

Hall Leader Chen shot Eunice a glance. He didn't intend on stirring up any trouble since he knew she had a special position in the Di Clan. Rocky, on the other hand, was merely a low-grade Spiritual Emperor of the Di Clan. It just seemed easier to find this single fault in Rocky.

"Hello, Hall Leader Chen. What can I do for you?" Rocky asked nonchalantly.

"Don't play dumb with me, brat. You set me up last time. I promise I'll get even with you today!" Hall Leader Chen declared resentfully.

Their argument caused quite a commotion among the other Spiritual Emperors that they ended up looking over in their direction.

"If I remember right, you offended Miss Eunice first so I decided to fight back," Rocky responded calmly with a smile.

"Humph. What nonsense are you talking about? I'd never dare to offend someone as esteemed as Miss Eunice. You played tricks on me because you were jealous of me being close to her, didn't you?" Hall Leader Chen insisted as he tried his best to twist the truth.

Hall Leader Chen's words caused quite a commotion among the crowd. Everyone present began to gossip with each other.

After all, Hall Leader Chen was not only a Spiritual Emperor at the middle grade from the East Grand Sect, but held a high position in the Ethereal Region as well. His words were certainly convincing.

"You're funny, Hall Leader Chen!" Eunice couldn't help but sneer.

"It's true. My subordinates can testify for me!" Hall Leader Chen continued to insist.

"Even if I did, so what? If I succeeded in tricking you and word of this spreads, it would only be more ridiculous considering your strength. It would only disgrace you," Rocky retorted immediately.

"You…" Hall Leader Chen was speechless. He didn't expect Rocky to fire back like this. He furiously glared at Rocky with wide, hateful eyes.

"Hall Leader Chen, if you two have any personal grudge against each other, then you may solve it in private after the Spiritual Emperor Contest. Otherwise, you would be disqualified from the competition if you were to cause a scene right now," Eunice warned sternly.
