Rebirth of the Prime Dragon Master novel Chapter 972

"It's because this Nebula Python is pregnant. Any ordinary spirit-manipulated beast will have considerably less strength while it's pregnant. Besides, its priority will be to protect its baby at all times, so it won't be able to exert all its strength while fighting the opponent. And the spirit-manipulated beast that the Nebula Python went up against was skilled at attacking," Rocky explained.

Upon hearing this, all the people present were stunned. It was not common for someone to be able to tell that a spirit-manipulated beast was pregnant just by looking at it, so it was hard for them to accept Rocky's words at face value.

"It's pregnant?" Woods asked the master of the Nebula Python, his eyes turning cold.

The master of the Nebula Python reluctantly nodded his head, shifting uncomfortably under Woods' penetrating gaze.

Everyone present let out gasps of surprise. Their admiration of Rocky rose now that his words had been confirmed to be true.

"Why didn't you report it? Don't you know how important this competition is?" Woods, who seldom lost his temper, yelled at the master of the Nebula Python. After all, this competition was of great importance and they couldn't afford to make any mistakes. Before the competition, he had even specially ordered people to check the condition of all the spirit-manipulated beasts to ensure that they were in their best state. But somehow, the fact that the Nebula Python was pregnant had escaped his scrutiny.

The master of the beast had no choice but to anxiously lower his head. His face had gone pale in a mixture of shame and fear. He had wanted to contribute so desperately that he had thought that he could somehow muddle through the competition without anyone finding out the condition of his beast. However, he hadn't expected anyone to see through his lies.

"It's useless to scold him now. Is there any flying beast among the remaining spirit-manipulated beasts?" Rocky asked Woods at once.

"There is a Snow Crow, but it's weaker than the rest of the beasts, so it was listed as a standby," Woods answered after thinking for a while.

"Snow Crow? That will do," Rocky said, nodding his head.

Although the Nebula Python was powerful, it hadn't exerted its full strength since it was pregnant and had put them in a disadvantageous position.

It was fortunate that Rocky had been able to detect its true condition.

"It seems that you can become a fortune teller, Mr. Rookie," Lucilla teased from behind.

Queenie, who was sitting next to her, scoffed, "Humph, I think it was just a lucky guess."

Rocky ignored their words and calmly said, "Let the Snow Crow fight in the second match!"

Woods decided to follow Rocky's advice and immediately ordered his men to send the Snow Crow, which was at the third grade of the four-star level.

Although the Snow Crow was small in size and looked weak, it was fast and agile. Moreover, its feathers would change color with the refraction of light, which would easily distract and confuse the enemy.

As soon as the Snow Crow entered the fighting pit of the beast arena, the crowd erupted in an uproar. Everyone knew that the Snow Crow was even weaker than the Nebula Python, which had already lost to the Sky-barking Hound. In their eyes, it was ridiculous to send out the Snow Crow in the second match.

Many of them began to boo, anticipating a boring match that would end swiftly with the Sky-barking Hound defeating the Snow Crow. According to them, Woods' decision to send the Snow Crow to fight was almost suicidal.

Prince Geoffrey and his men found it so absurd that they burst into laughter.

"Your Royal Highness, how could Prince Woods send such a weak spirit-manipulated beast? I think he doesn't have any strong spirit-manipulated beasts left," Alexander sneered.
