The Medallion

Rocky, who was cultivating in his room, suddenly opened his eyes and jumped up. All the spiritual power around him glinted like bright stars in the sky. He then hastily flew out of his room and landed on the ground outside. His palms moved the same way leaves flutter in the wind. The spiritual power that sparkled around him soon transformed into a glowing sphere, looking like a miniature universe that he held in his hands. He threw the glowing sphere to the ground, letting it roll away like a bowling ball.

The spiritual power of the Earthly Stage spun around the sphere.

Boom! Several streaks of spiritual power burst out from the sphere with a loud bang. Black smoke instantly filled the air. Once all of the smoke cleared away, Rocky's eyes were greeted with dozens of cracks and crevices on the ground caused by the strike.

"Wow! The Nebula Rolling Strike is absolutely amazing! I just exerted ten percent of my strength, but its strike was still very powerful! If I had used my full power, it possibly would have bored a huge hole on the ground!" As Rocky shut off his dragon spiritual power, the Dragon Spirit Mark around his left arm also stopped glowing. He looked at the cracks on the ground and felt satisfied. The strike he summoned was called Nebula Rolling Strike, a spiritual martial arts attack from the Vast Nebula Skill. Even though he just reached the Earthly Stage, he had already mastered the Vast Nebula Skill at such a shocking speed.

The loud noises attracted the attention of the imperial guards who were on patrol nearby and rushed to the scene at once. They were extremely alarmed to see several cracks on the ground and Rocky in the middle of it.

"Your Royal Highness, what happened? Are you all right?" one of the guards asked, eyes wide in shock.

"Don't worry! I'm fine. I was just practicing a new skill I just learned. Everything's fine here," Rocky reassured them and gave them a smile. He was suddenly reminded that he was in the Imperial Palace. He would not be able to do whatever he wanted as he did before in the bamboo grove in the dragon field.

The guards then began chattering among themselves.

"When did Prince Basil become so good? I remember that he had been so talentless before."

"Yeah! I've heard that he was even able to defeat a great master who is at the ninth grade of the Heavenly Stage during the Dragon Birth Festival!"

"So has the prince been concealing his true ability all along? Lucky for us, we've never offended him. Otherwise, we would be regretting it now."

Overhearing the guards' conversation, Rocky loudly cleared his throat. "Is there anything else you need here?" he asked, shooting them a glare.

The guards immediately panicked. They all then left hurriedly and went back to their jobs.

Rocky glanced up at the sky and saw that the sun was starting to set. The autumn breeze brushed his cheeks and the sun's afterglow was scattered across his face. His eyes shone with fortitude and the childishness that was formerly seen in them was now gone.

"From now on, nobody will dare call Basil a worthless piece of shit ever again! They don't know that the real Basil has died and that the one living in this body is none other than me, Rocky Bai. Basil, I've gotten rid of all those humiliating titles. You are not a useless prince anymore. If you can hear me from the afterlife, I hope that you wouldn't have to suffer any humiliation in your next reincarnation, even if you aren't a prince anymore," Rocky murmured and let out a soft sigh.
