Rebirth of the Prime Dragon Master

Chapter 1799 The Battle For Survival

This so-called battle for survival was to gauge the abilities of the candidates to hold on until the final

moment. Moreover, there was no time limit for this challenge. In other words, the battle would not end

until the winners filled in the corresponding slots. However, the high-grade Spiritual Emperors did not

feel the need to make the first move since they were powerful enough to endure the attacks hurled at

them.

Therefore, it was safe to say that the strong ones had the absolute advantage while the weaker ones

would be forced to struggle and double their efforts.

At the end of this round, only fifteen candidates would remain. Ten of those slots would easily be

obtained by the high-grade Spiritual Emperors. Hence, the rest of the low-grade and middle-grade

Spiritual Emperors would have to fight all-out just to secure the five remaining spots.

The survival battle had the same setup as the previous round that was held in the Holy Heaven Palace,

and the candidates were not restricted to form alliances. Thus, in order to make sure that they would

survive this battle, it was inevitable for the candidates, especially for the weaker ones, to be in groups

to have a chance of taking down the stronger ones.

However, this was also a bit tricky since everyone was aware that even the ones they were allied with

might betray them in the end just to acquire the spot for the next round. Therefore, everyone was

careful in choosing their partners and had already made some backup plans. Moreover, they could not

reveal all their tricks and strength in this round, because they would lose the upper hand in the next

one.

But of course, everyone's priority right now was to get to the next round. Once a critical moment

emerged, they would be forced to use all tactics that they were keeping.

Soon enough, the first day of the survival battle ended, and ten candidates were eliminated right away.

Almost all of them were low-grade Spiritual Emperors.

Then, three days passed in a flash. The battle became even fiercer, and more than half of the

candidates had been eliminated. At this point, only thirty Spiritual Emperors were left, meaning that half

of them still needed to be taken down before the battle ended. Besides the ten high-grade Spiritual

Emperors, some of the notable low-grade Spiritual Emperors that still remained were Michelle, Seth,

Eunice, and Carla. Of course, needless to say, the Godly Geniuses were still in the battle.

It was not surprising that Michelle was still left standing. With her beauty and appeal, many men would

willingly risk their lives to protect her.

As for Seth, the remaining Spiritual Emperors of the spiritual race also supported him with all their

might.

On the other hand, Eunice, Carla, Valeria, and Lilith actually formed an alliance to make sure that at

least some of them could reach the final round. Moreover, it was also part of the plan that Gloria would

assist them indirectly.

Quentin and Drew, who were disguised as middle-grade Spiritual Emperors, were also doing well to

fend off for themselves.

But since the Godly Geniuses did not trust other candidates, in order to qualify to the last round, they

had to fight alone and display their full strength. Ideally, they already wanted to eliminate as many

Godly Geniuses in this round so that the next one would be much easier for them.

At the same time, behind it all, Rocky was also manipulating the survival battle without really physically

participating in it.

Eventually, three days passed again.

Finally, the fierce survival battle had come to an end. After the thrilling competition, as expected, the

ten high-grade Spiritual Emperors, including Israel, obtained the slots for the final round.

Among the remaining five spots, four of them were filled in by the other Godly Geniuses—Valeria,

Gloria, Quentin, and Drew.

For the last spot, surprisingly, one of the disguised Godly Geniuses was defeated by a human Spiritual

Emperor, who showed such an amazing performance. This was none other than Lilith.

On the other hand, this result was also what Rocky had anticipated. However, to put it bluntly, the next

round was going to be a battle among the Godly Geniuses.

The day right before the final battle, Rocky approached Colton to have a detailed conversation about

his plan.

"So, I assume that you will still return to the Shura Race after the Spiritual Emperor Contest. Am I

right?" Colton asked bluntly. In fact, he had already expected that Rocky would insist on doing what he

should do. But of course, he was also concerned about the young man. Hence, if it was possible, he

did not want Rocky to continue involving himself with the Shura Race.

"Well, I still have to complete my mission as the Godly Genius. This is the only way I can prevent the

Shura Race from invading both the human race and the spiritual race again," Rocky answered.

Previously, Rocky was only concerned to win the battle among the Godly Geniuses in order to get the

qualification to be a deity. But after he had talked with Mikayla and Deacon, he learned that there was a

more profound reason as to why he was chosen as one of the Godly Geniuses. This was so he could

change the current situation in this world and eventually unify the three races. Of course, it was easier

said than done. This kind of unity could not rely on mere force and fear of the stronger one. It should be

formed through the peaceful coexistence of the three races involved.

But if he really wanted that to happen, he needed to become the most supreme existence that was

recognized by the members of the Shura Race—he needed to become their king.

As for how he could accomplish this task, it was what he was preparing to do next.

Therefore, he really had no other choice but to return to the Shura Race.

"I am aware of what you are trying to do. However, if you are really determined to change the current

situation on your own, I'm afraid you'll have to pay such an unimaginable price!" Colton was well aware

of how difficult the situation was. After all, the human race and the spiritual race had been living under

the shadow of the Shura Race for many years now. Even though the two races had stopped fighting

against each other and had been cultivating their relationship, they were yet to have the courage and

confidence to confront the Shura Race.

"Sir, I am also doing this for my own selfish reason. While these actions could benefit the human race,

it really motivates me that I can return to my original world when all of this is over. I cannot wait to meet

my family, relatives, and friends again. So, to put it frankly, I am willing to pay any kind of price just so I

can see the day that I can go back. I have already survived every great disaster there is. Even if I must

meet death face to face again, it won't matter," Rocky said straightforwardly with a burning

determination in his eyes.

"I see. Then, I won't say anything more. Just remember, if you need anything, I will try my best to assist

you!" Colton was also inspired by Rocky's determination, so he made such a promise.

"Thank you very much, sir," Rocky replied with a smile of appreciation. © 2024 Nôv/el/Dram/a.Org.

The following day, the last round of the Spiritual Emperor Contest was finally about to commence.

In this round, the rules were slightly different from the previous ones. After all, the sixteen candidates,

who were deemed to be the strongest among the human race and the spiritual race in all aspects, were

about to battle it out to the extreme.

Hence, in order to provide them an opportunity to display their strength to the fullest, a point-based

system was implemented to identify the top four candidates that would enter the championship stage.

The rules were quite simple. The sixteen candidates would have to continue challenging each other.

Their ranking would be decided according to the points they had obtained through victories or ties.

Then, the four candidates with the highest scores in the ranking list would proceed to the championship

stage.

In other words, each candidate was required to have fifteen matches. This was definitely a high-

intensity and tiresome competition that would push everyone to their limits. At the same time, it could

also be a chance for the candidates to surpass their limits and unleash their hidden potentials.

After the announcement of the rules, all the candidates, except Rocky, showed serious expressions on

their faces. Based on what they heard, they could already imagine the cruelty and difficulty that they

would encounter. Challenging a much stronger opponent would challenge the limit of one's physical

and mental strength. Moreover, there were at least six Godly Geniuses among them, including Rocky.

Only four candidates would be granted the slot to enter the final round. Hence, each of them had to go

all out in all of those fifteen matches in order to earn the spot. They should also be smart in using their

strength in order not to run out of fumes in their later matches.
