After the fierce challenge competition was completed, the three Spiritual Emperors, who were qualified to be a part of the third round, were determined. However, since the Di Clan made an exception for Rocky, he could also enter the third round directly.
Hence, apart from Lilith and Rocky, the two other candidates to join the third round were a talented Spiritual Emperor from the spiritual race and a middle-grade Spiritual Emperor from the human race.
At the same time, the latest top eighty Spiritual Emperors, who had performed well in the first two rounds and the challenging round, were already announced.
The one who ranked first overall was the youngest elder of the Sky-suppressing Mansion—Jules, a high-grade Spiritual Emperor.
For the second overall ranking, it was a high-grade Spiritual Emperor from the spiritual race—Wesley.
Then, the one who ranked third was a new high-grade Spiritual Emperor from the Sovereign Pavilion—Julian. He was an incredible talent and had been training vigorously throughout these years. Everyone thought that this could be his chance to prove himself once and for all.
After the announcement of the top eighty was made, these three candidates were thought to be the most likely ones to win the championship in the Spiritual Emperor Contest.
As for the other seven high-grade Spiritual Emperors that were also a part of the top ten, they also had a chance to win. However, their overall strength was slightly weaker than the top three candidates. It meant that they would have to perform very well and might need more luck to emerge victoriously.
Among these seven Spiritual Emperors, someone actually displayed such a magnificent performance that attracted the attention of a lot of people. It was a high-grade Spiritual Emperor from a rather small and not so famous sect—Justin Chen.
However, his real identity was actually the Godly Genius of the Primitive Fief—Israel.
At this moment, In Israel's room, a masked man in blue came in and knelt in front of him.
"Did you get any information about the other Godly Geniuses in the contest?" Israel asked directly, wasting no time.
"Yes, sir. According to our careful observation and investigation within the past few days, we were able to confirm the identities of three Godly Geniuses," the man in mask briefly informed.
"Is the Godly Genius of the Ghost Fief among them?" Obviously, Israel cared about Rocky the most. In fact, he was the target of every Godly Genius. They wanted to discover Rocky's identity as soon as possible in order to eliminate him.
"I am not sure of it yet. We still have to look further," the masked man replied apologetically.
"Then, find out as soon as possible. He is the biggest threat in this contest. I want all information about him. We should be prepared to face him soon." Israel knew that even though he was supposed to be the strongest among the nine Godly Geniuses, he could not act too complacent because Rocky had already proven himself a couple of times. In order to ensure his victory in the competition, he must eradicate Rocky first.
As the masked man heard Israel's order, he swiftly bowed and left to carry out the task given to him.
Meanwhile, after Rocky showed up as Basil and was allowed to participate in the third round of the contest, he disappeared again in the eyes of the people. Right now, he was also focusing on secretly investigating the other Godly Geniuses with Eunice's help. Ideally, his goal was to discover their identities before the next round started.
"Hey, are you not planning to see Carla? You have already come back as Basil. Why don't you at least meet her?" While checking the list of participants with Rocky, Eunice was so cooped up with this thought. She believed that she had to ask Rocky. Otherwise, she would not be able to calm down.
"What is the rush? Besides, I don't think it's the right time," Rocky replied indifferently.
"Then, when is the right time? She must be restraining herself and waiting for your initiative to talk to her! You're so cold-hearted. It's been a long time since she last saw you. I know that she misses you very much." Eunice did not need to tell it directly. Rocky immediately knew what she was trying to say.
"This is also hard for me. However, I have to set my priorities straight. Anyway, you don't have to worry about it. I promise that I will handle this properly." Rocky then glanced at Eunice and let out a reassuring smile.
On the other hand, Eunice could just sigh. Eventually, she decided to drop the topic off.
Two days after the challenge competition was held, the third round of the contest began.
