Chapter 1527 To Compete Moore

However, it didn't matter if he was the dark horse or not. What mattered was if he would make it to the
finals of the competition, and in order to do so, he needed to win this last round.

In everyone's eyes, the chances of Rocky winning in the last round were very small, since his opponent
was the famous Carla from the Sky-suppressing Sect, who was quite powerful.

There were many rumors about just how strong Carla was. She had, at the very least, a Spiritual Infant
at the medium stage, second only to Moore. Therefore, unless Rocky was as strong as Moore, there
was no way he'd defeat her.

Moreover, Carla had been regarded as a talented spirit warrior ever since she was a child. The Yu Clan
had invested their time and resources on her, and as a result, she had learned the best and most
secret skills of the clan. Rocky's chances of winning were extremely slim.

Even before the third round of the competition started, everyone knew Rocky was going to lose.

However, to everyone's surprise, at the beginning of the competition, there was a sudden news that
due to the consecutive days of the competition, Carla's injury in the second round melee was
aggravated, and she had to quit in the last round.

As soon as the news was announced, it immediately caused a sensation in the Sky-suppressing
School. No one had expected that Carla would suddenly give up, especially when she was sure to win.

However, people were more disappointed with Rocky's sheer luck. Without even having to face Carla,
he managed to make it to the final rung of the competition, officially earning the title of dark horse. For
decades, no disciples with a Spiritual Infant at the primary stage in the Sky-suppressing School could
take part in the final battle. And yet, Rocky managed to break the record, hardly even lifting a finger to
do so.



Rocky, on the other hand, was not surprised when he heard the news. He figured Carla was doing it as
a way of saying thank you for Rocky's help in saving her in the previous round.

Because Carla withdrew from the competition, the third round of the battle between Carla and Rocky
ended before it even began. The competition of the other group began in advance.

Because Rocky's spot in the final battle was secured, Eunice's fighting spirit was aroused. If Rocky,
who was her follower, managed to enter the final battle, then so could she!

However, to her surprise, her opponent in the second round was Moore himself. How could she be so
unlucky?

Then again, that was going to happen sooner or later. Despite giving it her all, Moore still defeated her
in one move, simply because she wasn't as powerful as him. Unfortunately, her failure eliminated her
from the competition.

Moore, being the most powerful disciple in the competition, pretty much breezed his way to the final
round.

Thus, the final round was between Rocky and Moore.

However, there was no excitement over the final result. Everyone believed that Moore was going to
win.

On the eve of the final battle, Rocky, who just returned to the disciple dormitory from outside, saw
Eunice waiting for him in the yard.

"Have you been well-prepared for the final battle tomorrow?" Eunice asked with a slight pout. She
refused to accept the fact that she lost to Moore in the second round of the competition.

"I'll try my best," Rocky replied flatly.



"Well, Moore has a Spiritual Infant at the advanced stage, so no matter how hard you try, you can't
defeat him," Eunice said helplessly.

"Seeing how we've performed in this competition, I'd say we've reached our goal," Rocky declared,
eyeing Eunice carefully.

"Kind of." She sighed. "But it would've been better if I won first place in the newcomer contest." Eunice
couldn't help but feel a little sour over the result.

"You should be content with what you have. Anyway, what are we going to do after the contest?" Rocky
asked casually.

"The Sky-suppressing School assesses talent through this competition. The new disciples that perform
excellently in the context are then chosen as key training subjects by the school. In that case, they get
the chance to enter the Spiritual Sea Region. If we make it that far, we will be one step away from
completing the task! However, there might be only one chance for us, and each disciple can only have
three chances at most. Thus, we have to seize every opportunity," Eunice said seriously.

"The Spiritual Sea Region?" Rocky echoed. "Is it similar to the Sword Spirit Sect's Martial Spirit
Graveyard?"

"Sort of. The most amazing thing about the Spiritual Sea Region is that the speed of cultivation is
several times faster than normal. That's why the Sky-suppressing School is so famous. Spirit warriors
like us can at least improve our Spiritual Infant by one grade if we enter there!" Eunice explained.

"If the Spiritual Sea Region is so great, why can't one enter it more than three times?" Rocky asked in
confusion.



"I don't know for sure, but it's been said that entering too many times has a side effect on spirit
warriors," Eunice replied with a shrug. "Enter it too many times and your inner demon will come out to
play, so they say. However, this hasn't been confirmed. Nevertheless, it's one of the rules of the Sky-
suppressing School; even the president of the school can't make an exception!"

"Really?" Rocky frowned slightly. "It seems that the Spiritual Sea Region is an interesting place..." In
that moment, he made up his mind to win the contest. Only then would he get the opportunity to enter
the Spiritual Sea Region.

"You'd better be prepared. If Carla didn't suddenly quit, you wouldn't even have the chance. So, don't
let her down!" Eunice wagged her finger at him.

Rocky shrugged at her with a helpless smile and then excused himself. Then, he headed to his room.

The final round of the contest of the Sky-suppressing School began in the Sunny Square the next day.
In the center of the square, there was a huge field thousands of square meters big, and there was also
an isolation belt around the field, in case that the disciples and masters watching the battle were
accidentally injured.

At the moment, the square was full of people, with many more swarming in from all sides.

The vice president of the Sky-suppressing School and several elders, including Felton, arrived early.
They all sat on the high platform in front of the square. In addition, there were also some important
figures from various major forces of the Sky-suppressing Sect who were invited.

What Eunice said was true. Those who performed well in front of those high-level leaders of the Sky-
suppressing Sect would gain the opportunity to get proper training, solidifying their future.
