Chapter 1447 A Remarkable Newcomer

At the moment, everyone who was watching this intense battle was boiling with excitement.

"Ha-ha! I did it! I've broken through to the King Realm!" Xavier was so proud of his accomplishment
that he laughed maniacally.

"Basil..." Tessa uttered anxiously. She was worried that something terrible had happened to Rocky
since they couldn't see what actually happened.

At the same time, the sword aura that initially covered the area was suddenly lifted, and an unusual
spiritual aura stealthily spread out from where Rocky originally stood. However, because on the
surface, Xavier's power still enveloped the area, most of the people in the crowd didn't notice that.

Only the big shots of the Sword Spirit Sect detected that and were a little shocked at what was
happening. They felt that the abnormal spiritual aura was something that transformed from a Spirit
Realm level to something much stronger, but it was gradual and not noticeable.

"What the hell is going on? That spiritual aura is of the King Realm! Don't tell me..." Harrison's eyes
widened as he speculated something he thought was impossible to happen.

"This is so mind-boggling! I didn't expect that there will be so many variables in this battle!" Timothy
exclaimed in shock and thrill. He also perceived that the unknown spiritual aura that was spreading
around sneakily was at the King Realm.

Just as everyone already counted Rocky out, thinking that there was no way that he could resist
Xavier's recent monstrous sword attack, a calm voice resounded and said, "Congratulations."

Then, a figure walked out of the rampaging spiritual power as if nothing had happened. Aside from the
slightly damaged clothes, it turned out that Rocky didn't even sustain any serious injury from the sword
attack that was already at the King Realm.



Seeing the mind-blowing scene, the people were rendered speechless. Time and time again, Rocky
surprised them to no end.

Even the top figures of the Sword Spirit Sect, such as Timothy and Harrison, couldn't believe that what
they were speculating was actually true. They couldn't imagine how Rocky managed to resist such a
formidable sword attack from Xavier.

"Impossible! How are you still standing? How did you resist the power of the King Realm?!" Xavier had
almost lost his mind as he found Rocky standing in front of him, completely unaffected by his powerful
strike.

"Can't you really think of the answer? I think it's pretty obvious. It's because I also broke through to the
King Realm just now," Rocky replied indifferently.

Upon hearing that, everyone in the crowd started looking at each other as if trying to confirm if they
heard it right. They were so confused because if he was stating the truth, they should have totally
noticed it. However, it seemed that he broke through to the King Realm without even exhibiting any
signs, and it was definitely unheard of.

"Nonsense! How could you break through to the King Realm? I can clearly sense from your spiritual
aura that it is still at the Spirit Realm!" Indeed, Xavier was right when he perceived that Rocky's current
spiritual aura was still at the Spirit Realm, and there was no trace of it being at the King Realm at all,
which made it even more confusing.

"Well, it is because of the special structure of my body. The real strength of my spiritual aura is being
concealed," Rocky explained calmly.

"I don't believe it! You can't be on the same level as me! Let's fight again!" Xavier roared as he instantly
waved the Blood Sword in his hand. The surging sword aura from the sword spread out instantly,
interweaving into a huge red wolf shadow that bared enormous teeth and claws, pouncing directly on



Rocky. As the spiritual power roared, the sword strike that Xavier was about to unleash bore his full
strength.

At that point, the huge shadow of the ferocious red wolf had completely shrouded Rocky and was about
to tear him apart. However, to everyone's surprise, Rocky suddenly flew into the air, defying the laws of
gravity. Although it wasn't as spectacular and powerful as Xavier's attack, everyone couldn't help but be
astonished upon seeing that.

After all, in the Supreme Ether Land, only the mighty spirit warriors at the King Realm had the ability to
soar and fly in midair. Therefore, Rocky didn't need to display any flashy spiritual aura just to prove that
his strength had already broken through to the King Realm. That was more than enough of a statement
to verify it.

As Rocky suddenly flew towards the sky, Xavier's attack obviously failed to hit him. The blood shadow
of the red wolf that was formed by his sword aura crashed to where Rocky was originally standing and
caused a huge explosion. Streaks of sword force raged around and even flew out of the competition
area. There were sword forces that brushed past the heads of the crowd, triggering quite a commotion.

At the same time, Rocky, who had just soared into the air, swooped down in a flash and bolted towards
Xavier on the ground. Interestingly, he didn't even unleash his spiritual sword or performed any spiritual
skill.

On the other hand, Xavier was fully prepared. He didn't show any sign of weakness and also leaped
into the air to confront Rocky. He merged his Blood Sword with his arm again and quickly slashed out
ten streams of blood-red sword aura that shot out towards Rocky with great momentum.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

The streaks of blood-red sword aura rushed up and exploded one after another. The dazzling red lights
flashed, covering the sky with a veil of sunset-like glow.



Everyone marveled at the scene. No one expected that a competition between the two disciples at the
seventh grade of the Spirit Realm would turn into a fierce battle of spirit warriors that had a dreadful
strength of the King Realm.

However, just when they thought that they were about to see more of the shocking battle, the
momentum was suddenly put to a halt.

While everyone was still focused on Xavier's blood-red sword aura, Rocky's figure swiftly brushed past
him. As Xavier looked down, his eyes opened wide and saw that his chest was profusely bleeding. Not
long after, he quickly fell to the ground as if he had lost all his strength.

Bang!

There was a loud thump as Xavier's body created a dent on the ground. However, it seemed that he
wasn't going to stand up any time soon. He was still conscious, but he couldn't move any part of his
body.

At the time, Rocky appeared before him, staring down at Xavier who seemed to have no idea of what
was happening to him.

"What happened? Why can't I resist your attack? What did you do to me?" Xavier looked incredulous
as he realized that he lost the competition.

Then, Rocky just shook his head and said, "Although you have already broken through the King Realm
and attained greater strength, your body wasn't used to it yet. The more power you released, the more
that your current body wouldn't be able to bear it. That was your biggest mistake. You just blindly relied
on your strength, thinking that you can defeat me with just that. Unfortunately, you aren't that smart and
experienced yet."



Hearing those condescending words, Xavier got so worked up that he tried to get up but spurted out
mouthfuls of blood instead.

At the moment, it was irrefutable that Rocky became the ultimate champion. The people looked at him
with awe and astonishment as he brought down the number one favorite to win the entire competition.
From the look in their eyes, it was pretty obvious that they didn't recognize how Rocky was able to
defeat Xavier in one move. Most likely, the only ones who discerned what really happened were the big
shots of the Sword Spirit Sect.

"Nobody expected that Basil could fully control his strength so well just after reaching the King Realm.
His knowledge and experience can't be underestimated. In comparison, Xavier is still a little reckless. I
actually expected more from him," Timothy commented.

"You're right. It's my fault for failing to train him to his fullest potential," Joseph said flatly, but there was
a flash of rage in his eyes. Since he was the master, he was infuriated to see Xavier being defeated by
a mere newcomer.

"Elder Joseph, you don't need to beat yourself up. It's already an amazing feat that Xavier broke
through to the King Realm this soon. In fact, although he lost this battle, I decided to give him the
chance to enter the Martial Spirit Graveyard as a reward for his hard work to reach the King Realm,"
Timothy declared as he stroked his beard.

"Thank you for giving him the chance, leader!" Joseph's gloomy expression softened a little after he
heard what Timothy said.

"That guy even made it to the King Realm! This is ridiculous!" Miguel couldn't help but exclaim in
exasperation. He never expected that Rocky, who was supposed to be just a weak newcomer could
beat Xavier and even reach the King Realm at the same time.



On the other hand, Hannah breathed a sigh of relief when the match finally ended. Although, there was
also a flash of surprise in her eyes because she didn't expect that Rocky could deliver such an
amazing performance in the decisive battle. He was under tremendous pressure but managed to turn
the tables when he also broke through to the King Realm.

"How did that happen? Does it mean that he's already a lot stronger than me?" Tessa was still in
disbelief after Rocky was declared the ultimate winner. Not long ago, she only saw him as an ordinary
person who didn't have many skills, but in the blink of an eye, he had already become a master at the
King Realm, indicating that he was above her in terms of strength.

"Well, it really seems that we have underestimated him," Ramon said coldly as he clenched his fist
while his body trembled slightly. After seeing how Rocky defeated Xavier and broke through to the King
Realm, he could not help but feel thrilled. His blood was boiling, as if he wanted to fight Rocky as soon
as possible, in hopes that he could also stimulate his potential and break through his current limitations.

"Hannah, take Basil to the Arcane Sword Hall. Harrison and I will be going ahead. Meet us there,"
Timothy suddenly instructed, as he turned to his daughter.

"Leader Timothy, I thought you have already asked me to deal with Basil's matter? Do you need to go
as well?" Harrison asked, surprised by Timothy's sudden change of mind.

"Well, that was the original plan. But since he has broken through to the King Realm and become such
a powerful man in a heartbeat, I feel the need to personally deal with this," Timothy said in a cautious
tone. After all, there was a big gap between a disciple at the seventh grade of the Spirit Realm and one
at the King Realm. Moreover, it seemed that he had taken a lot of interest in Rocky after seeing his
battle with Xavier. Thus, he was intrigued to personally meet the "newcomer".

"Okay then." After nodding slightly, Hannah got up from her seat and walked towards the competition
area to get Rocky.
