The Medallion novel Chapter 1771

The moment Valeria left the room, Gloria immediately rushed towards Rocky's side and flirtatiously said, "You actually want to act alone so that you can be with me, right?"

"How did you even get that idea? Besides, have you already forgotten what I said before? Once you are inside the Holy Heaven Palace, you must complete your task without fail. It will depend on you whether this plan will be successful," Rocky sternly reminded.

"I know, I know! Don't worry about it. You'll see that I will accomplish that task marvelously. I won't let you down," Gloria said confidently, winking at Rocky.

"All right. In fact, if you can really complete the task, I will reward you handsomely." Rocky enticed her even more. After all, the mission that he entrusted Gloria was very crucial. Hence, he was willing to compromise just so his plan could work flawlessly.

"Reward? What kind of reward are we talking about?" When she heard Rocky's words, Gloria's eyes instantly lit up and her eyebrows also raised.

"What else? I'll give you the thing that you want most!" Rocky let out a sly smile and deliberately tantalized her. He let her mind run wild by not telling what it exactly was.

"D-deal!" Gloria was so excited that she even stammered. Although she had some doubts that Rocky would be willing to give in to her wishes, she still decided to work hard in hopes that she could eventually control him. When that happened, no one would be able to go against her in the end.

The following day, the fourth round of the Spiritual Emperor Contest was about to ensue.

The entrance to the Holy Heaven Palace was located in the Holy Heaven Valley, which was hundreds of meters away from the west side of the Boundless Manor. Since it was already part of the forbidden area of the Di Clan, many low-grade Spiritual Emperors from the Di Clan were scattered outside to protect the palace.

Moreover, the main entrance of the Holy Heaven Palace was being guarded by an elder of the Di Clan. He was a Spiritual Emperor at the peak state, who had already experienced the leadership of three chiefs of the Di Clan. Therefore, from the day that the Holy Heaven Palace was established and became known to the outside world, no sect or person ever dared to trespass into this place. It could be said that the Holy Heaven Palace was such an extremely mysterious existence in this world.

However, in order to continue promoting the friendship between the human race and the spiritual race, the Di Clan made an exception this time and opened the Holy Heaven Palace as a venue for the Spiritual Emperor Contest. By this action, the Di Clan was able to convey how serious and sincere they were in maintaining the peace between the two races.

One of the main reasons why the Di Clan opened the Holy Heaven Palace was that they wanted to give the opportunity to the Spiritual Emperors of both races to improve their strength as much as possible. This was so they could cope up with each other once the Shura Race waged a war against either the human race or the spiritual race.

Of course, the Di Clan was not aware that the Godly Geniuses of the Shura Race would infiltrate the Spiritual Emperor Contest while disguising themselves as members of either the human race or the spiritual race when they came up with this plan. If they knew this in the first place, there was no way that they would let the participants use the Holy Heaven Palace. After all, once the Godly Geniuses entered it, they would be able to obtain unimaginable improvements too. It was like they intentionally helped the destruction of the human race and the spiritual race.

However, because the overall procedure of the Spiritual Emperor Contest had already been discussed and agreed upon by the Di Clan and the representatives of the spiritual race beforehand, there would be a huge commotion once they suddenly decided to go back on their word.

Therefore, even though Colton later found out that the Godly Geniuses had invaded the contest, he had no choice but to proceed with the original agreement.

At this time, the Spiritual Emperors, who would participate in the fourth round had already gathered at the entrance of the Holy Heaven Palace. Colton and several elders of the Di Clan were also there, standing in front of the entrance and exuding such an oppressive and domineering aura.
