"All right. Let me try if I can materialize my Imperial Soul into a solid form!" Excited to do some kind of experiment, Rocky immediately released his Imperial Soul according to the method that was indicated in the Mysterious Soul Formula. Gradually, he was able to condense his Imperial Soul power into a human-shaped figure.
A few moments later, a palm-sized soul shadow appeared and floated in front of him.
However, it only seemed like a ball of nether fire. The soul shadow's eyes were closed, and its entire body was emitting a faint green light.
Then, out of nowhere, the soul shadow opened its eyes and shot out two terrifying streaks of green flames.
After a while, the rampaging green flames in its eyes gradually subsided, but they were still dancing in its eyes, ready to spurt out again at any time.
"I never expected that my Imperial Soul would be so unique! It is rather small but its power is astonishing!" Thrilled by the impression that his Imperial Soul gave him, Rocky steadily approached and stretched out his hand to touch the soul shadow. However, the soul shadow suddenly dodged and acted hostile. It flew in front of Rocky and threw a ferocious kick.
Rocky instantly felt the overwhelming force rushing towards him, so with his quick reflexes, he tried to avoid it in a hurry.
Boom!
As soon as the kick of the soul shadow landed on the ground, huge fissures appeared, and the ground instantly collapsed.
Witnessing this, Rocky was actually dumbfounded. He was taken aback that his Imperial Soul could be this powerful after it was materialized into a human form. He thought that if it could be really used to fight with him, it would be such a huge help.
"Little guy! Who do you think you're attacking? I'm your master!" As Rocky regained his senses, he tried to communicate with his soul shadow and established his authority over it.
The soul shadow seemed to have its own consciousness. Hence, when it heard of Rocky's identity, its former aggressive attitude dissipated. It immediately lowered its head and did not dare act recklessly in front of its master.
"That's more like it. It is my first time unleashing you into a human form, but you'll have to be used to it soon. Anyway, nice to meet you," Rocky greeted with a faint smile.
On the other hand, the soul shadow did not respond to Rocky in any way, but it just stared back in silence.
"Okay. Let me feed you some of my spiritual power first. You have to get stronger as fast as possible." Upon saying this, Rocky released his spiritual power and sent it towards the soul shadow.
Sensing the spiritual power being offered to it, the soul shadow chomped it down without any hesitation. It was tiny in size, but its appetite was like of a feral beast.
In less than thirty minutes, Rocky sensed that a lot of his spiritual power had already been absorbed by the soul shadow. Consequently, the soul shadow had instantly grown in size.
But since the third round of the Spiritual Emperor Contest was just around the corner, Rocky needed to save his spiritual power. Thus, when he deemed that he had already fed his Imperial Soul enough, he withdrew his spiritual power and also recalled it back into his body.
Then, the following day, all of the participants in the Spiritual Emperor Contest gathered on the square of the Boundless Manor. Many of them were anxious since the rankings would be announced in a while. It also meant that they would know if they would proceed to the next round or if they were already eliminated from the contest.
"Everyone, listen carefully. I will be announcing the results of the contest's first two rounds. According to the rules that were set, those of you who were not able to reach the top eighty spots are going to be eliminated." An elder from the Di Clan stood firmly in front of everyone and prepared the list of the qualified participants.
Both the participants and the spectators were excited and nervous. They could not wait to hear the names of the ones who could enter the next round.
Normally, if the pattern would be followed, the middle-level and high-level Spiritual Emperors would have no problem entering the top fifty spots. In other words, the low-level Spiritual Emperors would have to battle among themselves to take the thirty remaining spots. Since there were about sixty low-level Spiritual Emperors in the contest, it meant that at least half of them would be eliminated after the announcement was made.
At this moment, the crowd finally fell into silence as the elder started mentioning the names and numbers of the qualifiers.
"The 80th place, No. 58!" The elder started.
"No. 58! It's me! Oh my god! I made it! I am going to the third round!" Upon the announcement of the last place, an excited voice suddenly burst out from the crowd. It turned out to be a female Spiritual Emperor from the human race.
"... For the 75th place, No. 47 got it!"
Soon enough, the people were able to hear the names and numbers of those ranked at the bottom ten. The crowd was not that surprised because more or less, those were also the participants that they were expecting to be called.
