The Medallion
Chapter 1768 The Expectations

At this point, Rocky already knew the identities of more than half of the Godly Geniuses. These included Israel, Drew, Quentin, and the Godly Genius he had targeted before. Of course, he also knew the secret identities of Valeria and Gloria, with whom he was allied.

About an hour later, Valeria, who had already broken through the seventh grade, suddenly chose to give up. Hence, among the low-grade Spiritual Emperors, only Michelle, Gloria, Seth, and Rocky still continued to try.

Among the medium-grade Spiritual Emperors, the remaining ones were Lilith, Drew, and the other Godly Genius from before.

Lastly, there were still three premium-grade Spiritual Emperors, including Israel, who remained motionless and had broken through to the eighth grade.

After another two hours had passed, Michelle, who had already broken through to the eighth grade, felt that it was already her limit. Thus, she didn't dare to take any more risks and decided to give up.

At the same time, Gloria, Seth, Lilith, Drew, and the other Godly Genius, whose identities were still hidden, had reached the eighth grade one after another. Meanwhile, because he was deliberately suppressing himself, Rocky was still at the seventh grade.

Five minutes later, Seth had already reached his limit and chose to forfeit.

For the Spiritual Emperors at the premium stage, two of them also gave up and were not able to surpass the eighth grade. Only Israel managed to overcome it and reach the ninth grade.

Then, about an hour later, Gloria, Lilith, and the two other Godly Geniuses also smoothly reached the ninth grade.

However, moments later, Lilith and the two Godly Geniuses already reached their limits and had no choice but to quit.

At this point, the only ones remaining were Rocky, who was still at the seventh grade, Gloria and Israel, who were already at the ninth grade.

"This is almost over!" There were just three people left on the field and there was not much time left. Therefore, Colton assumed that it would be over at any time, and none would be able to reach the tenth grade.

At the same time, Israel deemed to stop and give up. After all, he did not want to attract any more attention from the other Godly Geniuses. He thought that no one among them knew his identity yet. Among the other participants, he could not help but notice the unusual performance of Gloria. Hence, he suddenly had some suspicions about her and decided to observe her more carefully. From here on, only a few minutes were left before the time was up. Except for Gloria, who was currently at the ninth grade, no one really thought that Rocky could keep up since he was still at the seventh grade.

Therefore, Colton was already preparing to announce the end of the third test. However, out of nowhere, the entire Heavenly Library trembled violently. It was as if a tremendous force shook it. Even the audience, who was staying at the second floor, immediately glanced at each other with puzzled looks on their faces. No one among them knew exactly what happened.

While everyone was still in a daze, a delicate figure suddenly rose and floated in midair. Her delicate body was fully covered by a dazzling spiritual light. "Amazing! She is actually showing signs of breaking through to the tenth grade!" Colton's eyes lit up as he fixed his gaze upon the delicate figure in midair. Upon hearing Colton's words, the spectators on the second floor also burst out an uproar. Everyone was astonished at what they witnessed.

The majestic figure was none other than Gloria, who was just supposed to be a low-grade Spiritual Emperor.

The truth was that most of the people present were not really familiar with her. The only thing they knew was that she was a Spiritual Emperor from the Di Clan, but they only heard of her in this contest. From the first two rounds, they found that her performances were quite outstanding despite just being a low-grade Spiritual Emperor. However, they were so shocked to see that she would perform this splendidly in the test of the Heavenly Library.

At the same time, Rocky, who had been stuck at the seventh grade all this time, also looked at Gloria with slight confusion in his eyes.

'What is she doing? Is she revealing her identity on purpose?' Rocky thought in bewilderment.

Meanwhile, Colton's eyes turned rather cold. After all, he was one of the only people who knew Gloria's real identity. He did not expect that a Godly Genius of the Shura Race would be so talented that she could reach the tenth grade in just her first try.

Due to his own selfish motive, since the last incense was about to burn out, Colton actually wanted to stop the test already and announce the result. This way, he could prevent Gloria's further improvement. But soon enough, Colton instantly noticed that Rocky was staring at him from his position. It seemed that Rocky had read his mind. Then, the young man shook his head, signaling that he shouldn't do it. Seeing this, Colton immediately understood what Rocky meant, so he let the test continue further.

At the same time, he also wanted to know what Rocky was planning. He must have something in mind since he deliberately stopped Colton from abruptly ending the test.

Afterward, Rocky's eyes fell on Gloria again. At this point, he had already guessed what Gloria was trying to do, but he wouldn't let her do as she pleased. He made up his mind to steal her thunder so that everyone's attention would shift towards him. This way, he could somehow prevent her identity from being exposed, as well as being targeted by their enemies. Hence, he stopped suppressing his strength anymore.

The next moment, his body also shone with bright spiritual lights, which easily caught everyone's attention. At the same time, his comprehension level suddenly jumped from grade seven to grade nine, skipping an entire grade.

"What is this? His sudden improvement is just insane!" Even Colton was almost rendered speechless. He did not expect that Rocky would suddenly exhibit such a flashy move.

Obviously, the audience on the second floor, who witnessed it, was thrown into a massive uproar.

"These two Spiritual Emperors from the Di Clan are just at the primary stage, right? How on earth could they possess such a high level of comprehension ability? This is plain inconceivable!"

"I know! Even the famous geniuses like Lilith and Michelle cannot compare with them!" The people could not help but exclaim in disbelief.

"There is no doubt that the Di Clan is full of overwhelming talents!"

For a while, the second floor was in a state of chaos because of Rocky and Gloria.

However, from the sudden developments, Gloria was actually the most surprised one. Never did she expect that Rocky would dare to make a move to surpass her. In fact, she deliberately showed her strength in order to arouse the suspicion of the other Godly Geniuses and expose her identity. This was the only way she could think of so that she could draw their attention away from Rocky. But obviously, Rocky would not let that happen. He did not want her to sacrifice anything for his sake.

The only problem was that she was indeed a stubborn woman. Once she already decided on something, she would want to see it through to the end.

Therefore, Gloria instantly released her full strength in order to reach the tenth grade. In a flash, the spiritual lights that surrounded her body became more dazzling.

At the same time, Rocky's body matched the intensity of the spiritual lights that Gloria was emitting. Then, not long after, the spiritual light on Rocky's body became extremely bright that it actually suppressed the spiritual light of Gloria.

At this very moment, everyone fell into a deafening silence. They could just watch while their mouths were wide open.

While Rocky and Gloria were doing their best to reach the tenth grade, everyone felt rather nervous. They wondered if Rocky could still get there faster even though he was just at the seventh grade a while ago.

Moreover, it seemed that the remaining time suddenly became longer.

However, although Gloria and Rocky were almost close to reaching the tenth grade, they could not completely break through. It seemed that they had already reached their limits.

Colton was actually at a loss and was wondering if he should end the test now. Although he really wanted to see Rocky's brilliant performance, he was worried that if the young man pushed himself too hard, the result might become the opposite. Then, everything would be in vain.
