The Medallion

"Xavier sent you to deal with me as well, didn't he? Get right to it and fight me head-to-head," Rocky said point-blank.

"Xavier? He doesn't mean anything!" the disciple in black said disdainfully.

"Didn't Xavier send you to challenge me? If not, then who are you working for?" After Rocky weighed the disciple's tone, it convinced him that Xavier wasn't the one behind the provocation.

"Our young master has already issued a warning for you to steer clear of Miss Tessa. If you keep badgering her, you'll end up with something worse than today..." the disciple replied in arrogance.

"Oh, it appears that Miguel sent you. So this means I don't need to act so graciously." Rocky understood what he meant right away. It seemed like it wasn't only Xavier whom he had antagonized, but somebody else as well!

"Rainstorm Sword Attack!" The disciple blatantly raised his sword without reluctance and wielded a strong medium-stage sword skill. Within moments, the sword's aura enveloped Rocky like heavy rain.

Simultaneously, Rocky pulled out the spiritual sword hanging from behind him and dashed forward in a split second.

Puff! Puff! Puff!

In a single blow, streaks of sword aura scattered and erupted, intensifying into an overwhelming force. It circled Rocky and occupied the area up to a few hundred meters.

Everyone had the impression that Rocky could not escape, but a rapid shadow emerged from the sword aura like a visual illusion to their great surprise.

He moved past the disciple as if nothing had happened and retracted the spiritual sword back into its sheath.

Within a few minutes, the disciple's chest began to bleed profusely. A sharp groan came out of his mouth before his knees caved in. He was powerless to strike back and suffered severe injuries.

Rocky's devious attack left the other disciples utterly distraught because none of them saw how he did it. The incident and Rocky's amazing strength shocked them, especially after he succeeded in hurting a disciple who had reached the seventh grade of the Spirit Realm.
