Perhaps it was because of the influence that Rocky had exhibited, Gloria became distracted and eventually lost focus. Gradually, the spiritual light on her body started to dim. At this point, there was no way that she could break through to the tenth grade anymore.
At the same time, the spiritual light around Rocky began to dissipate as well.
Seeing this, the people, who were still holding their breath, could not help but heave a deep sigh. They all thought that both candidates did their best, but it was unfortunate that none of them could reach the tenth grade.
However, just as the crowd thought that the test was over, a strange golden spiritual light suddenly rushed out of Rocky's body, interweaved, and enveloped him.
"The tenth grade!" Colton exclaimed out of nowhere.
When everyone heard Colton, they were instantly stunned. No one ever thought that Rocky could really reach the tenth grade. After all, his progress earlier was so slow. But at the most crucial point, he suddenly pulled through and made a breakthrough.
At the same time, Gloria was also dumbfounded. She really thought that she could make it to the tenth grade, but she failed at the very last moment. Logically, she assumed that her level of strength should just be the same as Rocky's. That was why she found it impossible that Rocky beat her to it.
Right now, the undeniably spectacular talent and aptitude that Rocky displayed were more than enough to hail him as the most superior Spiritual Emperor in the contest.
"What the hell? This guy's potential is overwhelming! I have clearly underestimated him before!" Michelle could not help but exclaim in surprise. She always felt that he was not a match for her if she exhibited her true strength, but she realized that she was sorely mistaken. Seeing Rocky's mind-boggling talent before her eyes, she was struck by the reality that someone would always be stronger than her in this world.
Of course, even the other Spiritual Emperors, like Holden, thought the same. Most of them grew even more annoyed and infuriated.
Originally, Holden wanted to take advantage of the Spiritual Emperor Contest to gain fame and be in the limelight. But after what he experienced, he recognized that it would not happen anymore. From the first round up to now, he was always defeated and humiliated by Rocky.
However, this also motivated him even more to do something to eradicate Rocky from his path. After all, with him gone, he might have the chance to steal the show again.
Despite the people who harbored malice towards Rocky, some were genuinely happy for his achievements. These included Eunice, Carla, Lilith and Valeria. In their eyes, aside from being deeply surprised, they felt sincere admiration for him.
As the golden light that enveloped Rocky's body had been completely released, the library eventually returned to being peaceful. However, everyone could easily spot something different in Rocky.
Moreover, no one really knew what kind of special technique Rocky managed to comprehend all this time.
But of course, as long as one was able to reach the tenth grade, it would be just a piece of cake for them to comprehend any kind of unique and rare skill.
At this moment, Rocky already landed on the ground and approached Colton.
The two of them looked at each other and immediately understood what was going on.
Since everyone wanted to know what unique skill Rocky was able to comprehend, Colton directly asked him, "Can you tell us about the skill that you have comprehended? I am sure all these people would like to know."
"Oh, of course. What I have comprehended is the Holy Spirit Skill!" Rocky replied bluntly.
Upon hearing this, Colton was rendered speechless. It seemed that he didn't expect someone to discover this rare skill in the library.
"Did he just say that he comprehended the Holy Spirit Skill? I thought that ancient skill has been lost for hundreds of years now?"
"That is what I also know! It is said to be comparable to a divine skill. When one cultivates to the maximum limit, his spirit will be able to leave his body, transcend the three supreme worlds, and become a holy being! It is that amazing!"
"But how did that happen? If it has been lost for a long time, how did he find it in the library? Is he lying then?"
