The Medallion

"Captain Ramon, I know that though you almost always wear a cold expression, I can see that you are honest, generous, and loyal. That's why I think that if it's you, I won't need to hide the truth. I only wanted to join the Sword Spirit Sect because I had no choice. But please believe me when I say that I will never do anything to pose any threat to the sect. When the right time comes, I will also leave. I promise that until then, I won't cause any trouble to you or Miss Hannah," Rocky said with sincerity. After quite getting along with Ramon these past few days, he believed that even though the captain didn't have the friendliest attitude, he was true to himself. Thus, Rocky chose to trust him.

"Why should I believe you?" Ramon asked with a straight face, fixing his cold eyes on Rocky.

"Well, I don't really know how I can convince you. I leave the choice to you, captain. You can either trust me or tell Miss Hannah what I just said. It's in your hands now whether I can still stay or not." After nodding slightly, Rocky turned around and left the lounge.

"Humph! That guy is really annoying!" Looking at the receding figure of Rocky, Ramon couldn't help but clench his fists and grit his teeth. He didn't expect that he would hesitate like this. Initially, he was so determined to find anything that could make the newcomer leave. However, after everything that had happened, he eventually saw Rocky's real side. With the vast experiences that he had accumulated in his life, his gut was telling him that Rocky wasn't lying. He wasn't completely sure of the young man's motive, but he could tell that Rocky wouldn't pose a threat to the Sword Spirit Sect. Therefore, at that moment, it was pretty difficult for him to decide whether he should report him or not.

"Needless to say, I will have to keep an eye on him!" Eventually, Ramon made up his mind and didn't tell Hannah or anyone what Rocky had revealed to him.

At the same time, in less than a day, the news that Rocky had defeated Cory in the competition had already spread all over the Sword Spirit Sect and caused a great sensation. Everyone was talking about it and they were in utter disbelief. After all, Cory was one of the prominent disciples of the sect and his strength was rather outstanding. On the other hand, Rocky was supposed to be below average in terms of strength, as he had just become a preliminary disciple.

It was actually hard for the members of the sect to understand how Rocky triumphed over Cory. Even the disciples present at that time were dumbfounded because they were pretty sure that Cory's strength was far superior. However, Cory lost fair and square, and that also was an irrefutable fact.

Needless to say, after that battle, Rocky's position in the Cloudlet Team had risen a lot, and his reputation in the Sword Spirit city had also skyrocketed.

However, for such a powerful force like the Sword Spirit City, which had so many outstanding talents, this kind of news was supposedly going to subside after just a few days.

But to Rocky's surprise, a troublesome situation came to him less than two days after the event.
