Chapter 1446 His Shocking Decision

Under the brutal onslaught brought by Rocky's violent fist, Xavier finally had no other option than to fall
back towards the arena ground. Upon impact, a gaping pit measuring around a hundred meters across
appeared on the ground where his body crashed. Dense dust clouds rose into the air and blocked
everyone's sight.

By then, Rocky landed on the ground already. Xavier laid in front of him. His irises rolled back to reveal
the whites of his eyes and his entire body was covered with blood. It was clear that he had suffered
grave injuries.

A moment later, the crowd broke into an earth-shattering uproar. They couldn’t believe that Xavier, the
top disciple of the Sword Spirit City, was defeated so quickly by Rocky. No one had expected this.

Just when the crowd thought Rocky had won the battle, a burst of evil laughter suddenly rang out.
Everyone's eyes turned towards its source. Xavier, who should’ve been seriously injured, suddenly
stood up. His face was distorted and madness swam in his eyes like he was on the verge of spiraling
into chaos. He looked horrifying.

Upon seeing this, Rocky frowned slightly and a horrible feeling surged through his heart.

"Aaargh!" While everyone was still at a loss for words, Xavier suddenly raised his head and roared like
a ferocious, wild animal. A wave of bloody red spiritual power suddenly gushed out and enveloped his
entire body. His aura then surged up at a rapid pace. The violent spiritual power he had just unleashed
began to rampage throughout the entire arena. The spiritual wind blew frantically and dust continued to
soar to the sky.

All the onlookers were shocked. They knew these were the signs of someone about to break into the
higher realm.



Timothy and other senior members of the Sword Spirit Sect all had different expressions on their faces
at the turn of events.

"Is Xavier going to break through to the King Realm at this critical moment?" Harrison asked with
knitted brows.

"It's too dangerous. Anyone who tries to break through into the King Realm while his body is seriously
injured would easily spiral into utter madness," Timothy commented in agreement with a nod.

"Should we stop him?" Harrison immediately asked for instructions.

After thinking for a while, Timothy looked at an elder of the Sword Spirit Sect, who was sitting on the
side with a pair of straight eyebrows and eagle-like eyes, and his hair and beard were a bit grey. He
was Joseph Xia, Xavier's master. "Elder Joseph, Xavier is your disciple. I think it's up to you to decide
whether to stop him or not," Timothy then proposed.

Joseph Xia was one of the senior elders in the Sword Spirit Sect. He was a highly valued member, and
many of the disciples he trained successfully broke through into the King Realm.

"Stopping him is unnecessary. His strength had already reached the point where he can break through
into the King Realm. However, no suitable opportunity for his ascension arrived until now. What we are
witnessing proves that he will only grow stronger with each powerful opponent he faces. The heavy
blows he just endured merely stirred up his potential. Perhaps that’s why he’s choosing to break
through into the King Realm now. If he stops now, he may not be able to go further. I know his decision
to break through now is extremely risky. But the courage he’s showing now is exactly why he's qualified
to be my disciple," Joseph Xia replied in a stern voice. It seemed that in his eyes, the best time for
Xavier to break through to the King Realm was right then and there.

"Since you have said so, let's just wait and see what would happen next." Timothy didn't say anything
to interfere and showed respect to Joseph Xia's decision.



Back at the arena, the spiritual power that gushed out of Xavier's body had reached its limit. The sky
above the arena quickly changed which worried the onlookers.

"Aaaaargh!" Xavier roared again fiercely. A spiritual pillar quickly rushed out from beneath his feet and
devoured him entirely within the next second.

Everyone screamed in surprise because they had rarely witnessed a spirit warrior breaking into the
King Realm in such a dangerous state. Normally, one needed to be in a quiet environment so as not to
be disturbed. But Xavier decided to ascend now even when Rocky had entered the Spirit Possession
state. If the latter decided to strike the former now, Xavier might be unable to successfully move on.

Everyone turned toward Rocky and eagerly awaited his next move.

Of course, Timothy and other important figures of the Sword Spirit Sect also shifted their gazes to
Rocky.

Once Xavier successfully broke through into the King Realm, even Rocky in his Spirit Possession state
would be no match for him. If Rocky wanted to win this decisive battle, it was now or never. He could
take advantage of Xavier’s vulnerability during the breakthrough. Anyone who was disturbed during the
process could suffer serious injuries or, worse, be driven into madness before succumbing to death.

However, who would ever let go of the opportunity to enter the Martial Spirit Graveyard? Therefore, the
choice Rocky made at this time would show what kind of person he was.

If it was any other disciple of the Sword Spirit Sect in his shoes, he would stop Xavier without
hesitation.

Just when everyone thought they knew what he would do, Rocky made a shocking decision. He
unraveled the Spirit Possession state and returned Glutton to his Magic Spiritual Space.



“Has he lost his mind? He not only didn't stop Xavier from breaking through, but also unraveled the
spiritual skill that made him stronger..."

"He probably thinks Xavier is unable to successfully break through!"

"If I were him, I would've done something long ago. What is he waiting for? I don't understand him. He'll
surely regret having missed such an opportunity later."

"If Xavier is successful, there's no doubt he'll have the upper hand."

A wave of heated discussions swept throughout the entire arena’s crowd. But the majority of them
agreed that Rocky had made a fatal mistake.

By then, Timothy's eyes flashed with mysterious acknowledgment. It was as if he was keeping a secret.
Harrison took note of this tiny change in him and then looked at Rocky thoughtfully.

"Ramon, do you think Xavier will succeed?" Tessa asked. Needless to say, she was more than
nervous. She thought Rocky would emerge the victor but she never expected Xavier to choose this
time to break through into the King Realm in such a vulnerable state. This battle would be a fierce and
legendary one.

"With his talent, Xavier will have a great chance of success. But why did Basil hold back from attacking
him when he had the chance? The people wouldn't blame him if he did. This is an important
competition after all," Ramon murmured. He was at his wit's end too.

The spiritual pillar that had devoured Xavier earlier quickly disappeared. Then, a red shadow moving at
lightning speed appeared in front of Rocky who had just finished unraveling the state of Spirit
Possession. The red shadow wielded the Blood Sword. A power several times stronger than the
seventh grade of the Spirit Realm rushed out of the weapon and quickly devoured Rocky.



Boom!

The energy unleashed by the sword immediately unleashed an equally cataclysmic force that instantly
filled up the entire area. Countless sword marks appeared on the ground. This proved how destructive
this sword was with just a single strike!

"Look at that power! Is this the power at the King Realm? Marvelous! I don't think he'll be able to
survive the blow."

"I never expected Xavier to successfully break through. This is amazing!

He deserves to be Elder Joseph's disciple."

"Basil will definitely lose!"
