Rebirth of the Prime Dragon Master novel Chapter 1479

"It’s true! It’s the Thousand-star Swordsmanship! When did you learn it? And who taught you?" Harrison asked, bewildered at what he had just witnessed.

"I got this swordsmanship the last time we went into the Martial Spirit Graveyard,” Rocky replied flatly. Of course, he had already come up with an excuse beforehand.

"The Martial Spirit Graveyard…" Harrison uttered with furrowed brows. But after thinking for a while, he thought that it was indeed possible for Rocky to acquire this swordsmanship in the graveyard because all of the previous sect leaders had gone there to cultivate. One of them might have left it there unknowingly.

"Does this swordsmanship have anything to do with the Sword Spirit City?" Rocky asked, although he already had some knowledge regarding it.

"I’ll tell you about it later. But remember, if someone asks you about this swordsmanship, tell him that you have just randomly learned it, or that you have created it yourself. Just don’t tell anyone that it’s the Thousand-star Swordsmanship. Do you understand?" Harrison warned.

"All right. I got it." Rocky gave his word.

"You can go ahead. I’m going to meet the sect leader now." Harrison knew that this matter should be urgently reported to Timothy. After all, it turned out that a spirit warrior, who was not a sect leader, was able to master the Thousand-star Swordsmanship. It was a huge deal for the Sword Spirit Sect, and if the news spread out, it would definitely cause a big mess. Some clans and sects coveted the unique sword skill and might take advantage of the situation.

"Then, I’ll take my leave." Rocky bowed and eventually left.

At the same time, Harrison immediately set out and flew towards the Sword Spirit Sect.

After Harrison left, Rocky briefly stopped and looked at his receding figure. He then revealed a cunning smile, knowing what really was going on. 'It seems that everything is going my way. If my assumptions are correct, when the sect leader knows that I learned the swordsmanship, he will definitely give me special treatment. With that, I will be able to enter the Sword Spirit Sect freely, and a better cultivation environment would be waiting for me.'

Rocky knew that even if he became the leader of the Security Hall, things might not go very smoothly for him. This time, he defeated Xavier again, and he believed that Miguel would be infuriated to the extreme. Although he thought that Miguel was a bit insignificant, he was still the godson of the sect leader, so he couldn’t underestimate his influence. Moreover, Rocky also discerned that after becoming the leader of the Security Hall with minimal experience in the Sword Spirit City, he thought that several people would doubt his capability, and this, in turn, might be taken advantage of by the people who wanted to cause him trouble.

The following day, on behalf of the Sword Spirit Sect, Harrison formally appointed Rocky as the next leader of the Security Hall of the Sword Spirit City. Thus, Rocky became the youngest leader in the history of the city. Of course, although Rocky obtained the position fair and square, in the eyes of the older generation, he was still a too young and inexperienced man who might not be very suitable for the job.

Therefore, except for Harrison, the leaders of the other halls obviously had a condescending attitude towards Rocky. They didn't want to take Rocky seriously, but the young man didn’t seem affected because he was expecting that this would happen.

However, due to Rocky’s undeniably excellent performance in the competition, he still attracted a lot of people’s attention, and many disciples regarded him as an inspiring figure—someone who started humbly but was able to attain great heights through hard work.

Moreover, the happiest ones for Rocky’s achievements were Tessa and Ramon.

In fact, after the appointment ceremony, Tessa and Ramon quickly approached Rocky to congratulate him.

"You really did it, huh? I guess I’ll have to call you 'leader' from now on," Ramon said as he greeted Rocky. If this happened in the past, Ramon would be like the other hall leaders who wouldn’t recognize Rocky. However, since he had gone through many ordeals with the young man, especially with the training in the Black-devouring Swamp, he had learned to admire Rocky to the extreme. Furthermore, in the battle against Xavier, if it wasn’t for Rocky, he would have been dead already.

"Ha-ha. That’s unnecessary. I would still like you to call me by my name. Besides, I’m going to name you as the deputy leader," Rocky responded with a smile.

"What? Deputy leader? That position isn’t being used for a long time. The Security Hall is only comprised of two teams, and each one has a captain. That’s why they don’t think that it is necessary to have a deputy leader. If you suddenly make that decision, I’m afraid that people would have a lot to say. So, while I appreciate the thought, I suggest that you don’t try it," Ramon explained.

"That changes today. Because from here on, I will be merging the two teams of the Security Hall. Xavier has suffered severe injuries and might take at least a year to recover and resume his duties. Without a captain, the Wolf Team wouldn’t be able to function properly. That’s why I will propose to merge the Cloudlet Team and the Wolf Team. While I take the role of the leader, I shall appoint you as the deputy leader. Also, you don’t need to worry about it because the sect leader has already approved my plan," Rocky remarked.

"Really? You already talked to the sect leader? That’s great then! Congratulations, Ramon! You’re going to be the deputy leader of the Security Hall," Tessa said with much elation. Back then, she already knew Ramon, but it was only when they fought side by side in the Black-devouring Swamp that she really got to know his character. As they battled life and death together, they naturally established a deeper bond.

"Well, if that’s the case, I’ll gladly accept it. Thank you for trusting me." Since Ramon heard that even the sect leader had no qualms about it, he had no objection to what Rocky wanted.
