Moreover, Rocky's Imperial Soul was very unique and special in many aspects. In fact, even Colton and the other two Spiritual Emperors might not be able to hurt him. Hence, there was no doubt that the Fiery Lion could not do anything to him.
At this moment, Crosby was still a bit dumbfounded, so he could not help but cast a few glances towards Rocky. Just a moment ago, he clearly felt a strange aura from Rocky. It only lasted for a second, but he was still able to sense it. Furthermore, it was the first time ever that a low-grade Spiritual Emperor could remain calm in front of the Fiery Lion. It was indeed an astonishing feat.
"As promised, here is your reward for being the last one to hold on. It is a Sacred Spirit Pill." Crosby actually believed that some Spiritual Emperors of the Sky-suppressing Mansion would emerge victorious, so there was no problem for him to give it as a reward in the test. However, never did he expect that it was Rocky who would outlast every other Spiritual Emperor in the end.
A promise was a promise, so he did not hesitate to give it to the winner. Therefore, he immediately took out the Sacred Spirit Pill and handed it over to Rocky. At the same time, he could not help but subtly give Rocky a meaningful look.
"Thank you for this, Mr. Crosby." Although Rocky noticed the look that Crosby gave him, he did not pay attention to it and just accepted the reward without hesitation.
Later on, Crosby returned to where Colton and the others were.
At this moment, everyone's focus was on Rocky. After all, who would have thought that he could even take a nap in front of the vicious Fiery Lion? Because of that, he won in the end and even got the top-grade pill from Crosby. It was hard for the onlookers to accept the fact, especially that he was just a low-grade Spiritual Emperor.
Of course, no one knew that Rocky did that on purpose. He intentionally planned to make a scene during the test in order for the other disguised Godly Geniuses to take the bait and reveal their identities.
Just as Rocky expected, several Spiritual Emperors showed looks of suspicion towards him.
"Hey, can I have the pill that you received?" Out of nowhere, Eunice suddenly appeared and asked for Rocky's reward without any hint of hesitation.
"Oh, you want it?"
"Of course! Don't you know that it's the best one among the low-level pills? It can easily help you break through to a higher level. If you don't want it, then just give it to me." Without even a hint of a humble tone, Eunice asked for the pill, assuming that Rocky would have no interest in it.
"Fine. I'll give you the pill." Indeed, Eunice was right. Rocky was not really interested in it, so he handed it to her without wanting anything in return.
Although the Sacred Spirit Pill was actually pretty good, it would be useless for Rocky since he had already reached a much higher level. So it was better to give it to Eunice.
Upon receiving the pill, Eunice was very exhilarated.
At the same time, when the people saw how Rocky gave the coveted Sacred Spirit Pill without reluctance, they could not help but start some rumors and guess the relationship between him and Eunice.
Moreover, they were so envious of Rocky. He could just give a precious pill to others without thinking twice.
They were starting to see Rocky's real strength, and even the high-grade Spiritual Emperors seemed to be inferior to him.
"The third test shall commence tomorrow. For now, let us call it a day and have a good rest!" Colton got the attention of the crowd and made the announcement.
Afterward, Colton and the other two Spiritual Emperors left the scene.
Since there were no events remaining for the day, the participants also left one after another.
On the other hand, Rocky stayed behind. He wanted to observe the crowd first as they left the area. Soon enough, everybody was gone, and he was the only one remaining. However, just as he was about to leave, a figure suddenly appeared and stood in front of him.
"Hey! You are the Godly Genius of the Ghost Fief, aren't you? You are making such a huge fuss here in the Spiritual Emperor Contest. I guess you are not afraid to reveal your identity, huh?" It was actually a participant from the spiritual race, and his eyes were full of hostility as he looked at Rocky. Since he knew about the Godly Geniuses, Rocky thought that he must be a Godly Genius in disguise or someone connected to them.
