"Are you sure? You know that this task will be very dangerous." Alex still had qualms. However, after seeing how confident Rocky was, she knew that he might have a way to deal with the demonic spiritual beast.
"Don't worry about me. Anyway, I am the weakest among the team, so I should at least do what I can to help us get out of this area. But please ask Spiritual Emperor Finnegan to save me afterwards," Rocky replied with a soft chuckle.
Hearing this, Alex turned to Finnegan, and he just nodded in agreement.
"Alex, what are you thinking? Just come with me and I will protect you. I will even make sure that you are the first to pass this cave," Abdullah immediately said after hearing what Alex and her team agreed upon.
"It's fine. We will send Rookie as our representative," Alex declared firmly. Then, she hurriedly turned around so that Abdullah could not bother her anymore.
Seeing that Abdullah had failed to catch Alex's attention again and again, all the Spiritual Emperors present could not help but show a hint of mockery in their eyes.
Because of Abdullah's identity, many people in the spiritual race would always show him respect. However, Alex did not care for it, and she was one of the very few people who dared to ignore him.
Of course, after being snubbed by Alex again, Abdullah got more pissed off. Since he knew that the most important thing as of the moment was to clear the trial first, he directed his frustration towards Rocky. "Hey, brat! Didn't you see how powerful that demonic spiritual beast was? If you still want to live, then you'd better back off now. Don't blame us if you wet your pants later!"
"Well, you should worry more about yourself." Rocky just smiled as he walked away. Then, he began floating into the air and soared above the burrows under the watchful gazes of the crowd.
"What? Is that the Floating Skill?" Seeing what Rocky just did, the spirit warriors present were shocked and confused at the same time.
After all, the Floating Skill was a unique skill of the Xiayu Clan. It should be impossible for someone outside their clan to master it.
Abdullah's face instantly darkened upon seeing that Rocky could use the Floating Skill. He was infuriated that Rocky was trying to steal his thunder, so he immediately followed closely behind. At the back of his mind, he had no intention of being overshadowed by a mere nobody.
Soon enough, Mila also followed them as the representative of the Lingji Clan.
After a while, Rocky, Abdullah, and Mila entered the area that was full of burrows. In order to quickly attract the attention of the demonic spiritual beasts, they deliberately dispersed in different directions.
Not long after, a demonic spiritual beast sensed them and surged out of the burrow beneath Rocky. It opened its huge mouth in an attempt to devour him whole.
Witnessing this, Alex grew worried about Rocky.
On the other hand, Abdullah was not able to hide the sneer on his face, hoping that the savage beast would actually swallow Rocky and kill him off.
Quickly noticing the huge beast, Rocky's eyes narrowed, and he instantly unleashed his fighting energy at the Mystery Stage. It formed an invisible barrier that blocked the beast when it tried to chomp him down. At the same time, it was hurt by the fighting energy.
Because of the pain inflicted by the fighting energy, the demonic spiritual beast hurriedly returned to the burrow to hide.
Of course, the Spiritual Emperors were flabbergasted to see that Rocky was able to fend off the ferocious beast. They couldn't understand what he actually did to defeat it.
Abdullah got overconfident. He thought that if Rocky could easily send the mighty beast away, then he obviously could do the same.
However, the strength of this demonic spiritual beast was equal to that of a Spiritual Emperor at the primary stage. Plus, it was a little stronger than ordinary spiritual beasts. Abdullah was also just a primary-stage Spiritual Emperor, so it would be extremely hard for him to defeat it. As expected, when he faced the demonic spiritual beast, he made a spectacle of himself.
Meanwhile, Mila seemed to be much stronger. She and the third demonic spiritual beast engaged in a fierce fight, but they fell at a stalemate.
"Don't dawdle around! Use this chance to get past the burrows while those three are distracting the demonic spiritual beasts!" Anita sternly ordered.
