Michelle, who was already satisfied with her Imperial Soul's potential at the low grade of the Heaven Stage, was stunned. She froze in a smile of relief.
"There has to be a mistake! Even the potential of Michelle's Imperial Soul was only at the low grade of the Heaven Stage. So how on earth could the potential of that guy's Imperial Soul shoot straight to the middle grade of the Heaven Stage?" Holden questioned in disbelief.
The crowd looked doubtful and suspicious as well. This further intensified their gossiping among each other.
Even a new genius like Michelle could only manage to reach the Imperial Soul potential at the low grade of the Heaven Stage. And yet this nobody was proven to have achieved a stronger Imperial Soul. This news was a hard pill to swallow for everyone.
Rocky was the most surprised out of all of them. He had already given up on the first round while challenging the Heaven Stage. But why was the potential of his Imperial Soul deemed to be a grade higher than that of Michelle?
What he didn't know, however, was that the Imperial Soul's potential evaluation standards in the Imperial Soul Testing Array not only lied about how many challenges one had passed, but it also lied about the comprehensive performance of the candidate. It turned out that Rocky's performances during the Human Stage and Earth Stage were quite exceptional. So even though he gave up at the beginning while challenging the first round of the Heaven Stage, the Imperial Soul Testing Array would still have ranked the potential of his Imperial Soul at a much higher level.
Rocky, who had planned on only stopping at the level most suitable for him, had achieved an amazing feat that left everyone stunned!
After all, if he—a low-grade Spiritual Emperor—allowed his Imperial Soul's potential to reach the middle grade of the Heaven Stage, then the chances of him reaching the Shura Realm once he peaked as a Spiritual Emperor would be very high.
And even then, Spiritual Emperors who reached their peak in the Ethereal Region usually didn't possess such high potential in terms of the Imperial Soul. No wonder the crowd had a hard time believing the result.
Even the Spiritual Emperor in charge of the announcement thought it was outrageous. He immediately reported this to the superiors to avoid causing further chaos.
Colton and several elders of the Di Clan were baffled upon hearing the news. Such an amazing Imperial Soul with great potential was rare even in their clan.
Colton soon arrived at a decision. They would review Rocky's results to avoid any further confusion and doubt. Additionally, he would talk to him personally.
Upon receiving the news, the Spiritual Emperor who made the announcement earlier immediately explained Colton's decision to Rocky.
"All right!" Rocky responded. He knew his result was peculiarly high. Since it was quite unexpected, he had no objection to having his result looked into further.
After, the Spiritual Emperor announced the decision to the public as well and the uproar finally subsided.
Rocky didn't stay for too long. He immediately left after bidding Eunice and Carla farewell.
"Why should his results be checked again? He's already proven how high the potential of his Imperial Soul is! Isn't the potential of Michelle's Imperial Soul at the Heaven Stage too?" Carla gazed after Rocky with pity.
"If his result ended up being just at the low grade of the Heaven Stage, they may have let it go. But his result reaching the middle grade of the Heaven Stage! That's crazy! There have only ever been three people in the Di Clan who had their potential of Imperial Souls proven to reach that stage since ancient times," Eunice revealed. She appeared to still be in shock.
"If his test result doesn't count, I'm afraid he'll inevitably suffer a great loss," Carla said. She couldn't help but worry for him.
"Don't worry. Our chief will give him justice!" Eunice confidently reassured her.
"I hope so," Carla admitted with a nod of her head.
"Why do I have this feeling that you care about him very much?" Eunice couldn't help but ask her with growing suspicion.
"Stop talking nonsense! I just think that he's special!" an exasperated Carla sighed.
"I totally agree with you. If his result truly is at the middle grade of the Heaven Stage, I'm afraid many of the top Spiritual Emperors won't be able to compete with him. The possibilities of his future would be limitless!" Eunice voiced her opinion.
