Rebirth of the Prime Dragon Master novel Chapter 46

"You hit me really hard!" Rocky said the moment he regained his balance. He touched his chest and felt numb.

"If you were in a battlefield, you had already been dead. Remember that you must never let your guard down regardless of the strength of your opponents. If you get cocky, you die," Mia reminded him.

"What do you call that move?" Rocky figured that he might as well get something out of the pain it caused.

"They are called the Illusionary Palm. Deity Finger and Illusionary Palm are both from a branch called the "Illusion Technique" in the field of spiritual martial arts. You can practice it once you make it to the third grade of the Mysterious Dragon Skill. This is the only spiritual method of the Dragon Master Clan that could utilize the dragon spiritual power without any of the nature being shown. No one ever studies this kind of spiritual martial arts anymore. As far as I know, I am the only one who....." Mia stopped talking before revealing any more information.

"Wouldn't that be just suitable for me?" Rocky had a weird feeling that Mia was deliberately demonstrating spiritual martial arts in front of him. She probably didn't know that he was at the fifth grade of the Mysterious Dragon Skill. 'Was all this intentional or just random?' Rocky thought to himself.

"If you ever make it to the third grade with your Mysterious Dragon Skill, I will teach you more from the spiritual martial arts," said Mia.

"Is she trying to motivate me by showing me the power of the spiritual martial arts?" Rocky had a discovery that Mia was trying to motivate him with the spiritual martial arts. He never thought that Mia would ever have such concern for him. Maybe she was not as bad as he thought she was.

"What the hell are you talking about? I could seriously kill you if I wanted to." Mia suddenly turned stern. She had indeed been trying to be nice to him but he ruined it by getting cocky. She appeared in front of Rocky in a flash. She was so furious that she bombarded Rocky with a storm of kicks and punches.

The result was not surprising at all.

About an hour later, Rocky was standing there covered in bruises as he panted heavily and could barely hold himself together. Mia didn't even break a sweat compared to him and it clearly showed the gap in their strength.

Mia never thought Rocky could withstand her attacks for an hour. Although she had brought her power to the third grade of the Mortal Stage, she held nothing back with Rocky as every punch landed flat on him. She could tell that Rocky had a hell of a backbone. Had her opponent been an ordinary person, he or she would've begged for mercy long time ago. However, she could see in Rocky's eyes that he had no plans of giving up.

"That should be it for today," Mia said coldly as she turned to leave.

Rocky could no longer keep it together and collapsed right after Mia left him. He cursed, "This woman was obviously holding a grudge against me and just took it all out on me. What was her problem? Was she on her period? But after all, at least I was able to learn some moves from the spiritual martial arts and it was all worth it."

As Rocky could not even stand, he just wrapped up his training early and dragged his broken body back to his room. The moment he entered his room, he saw Uriah sound asleep on his bed without a care for anything happening around him.

"Time to get up lazybones. I need you to heal me." Rocky woke Uriah up and collapsed right on top of it.

Uriah woke up to see its master all bruised up. It immediately started to lick his wounds to help him recover. Although Rocky could just drink the magical saliva to heal his wounds, he didn't have enough energy to do anything after the beating Mia gave him. He just wanted to rest as he enjoyed the massage from Uriah's tongue. Unhygienic as it was, he still felt very comfortable.
