Chapter 138 A Great Shockwave


    After chatting with the old man for a while, Rocky found out that the old man''s name was Jackson


    Chen. That girl he met, was his granddaughter, Sue Chen. People in these viges had lived here for


    generations. Even though it was dangerous to live here at the Gehenna Border, they had already


    be ustomed to living under constant crisis and the burning me of war.


    While Rocky was talking to the old man, Sue Chen noticed that little Rubygon had begun drinking milk


    from a goat. Admiring his tiny chubby body, Sue Chen couldn''t help but smile. "It is so cute!" She came


    forward almost involuntarily and touched it gently with her fingers. Seeing that little Rubygon wasn''t


    averse to her touch, she took it up in her arms delicately.


    "Sue, don''t touch someone else''s..." Jackson Chen tried to stop her.


    "It''ll be okay." Rocky looked at Sue Chen with a smile on his face and said, "Its name is Rubygon."

    "I did not ask you!" As her expressions gave away, Sue Chen was obviously not fond of Rocky. She


    red at him as if to make him back off and hugged little Rubygon even tighter. She immediately


    turned to little Rubygon. "So your name is Rubygon. You are very adorable, but you have such a


    terrible name. Why don''t we just call you Mimi? Do you like this name, my little love?"


    Rocky instinctivelyughed. He thought to himself, ''Ha-ha! Mimi sounds like a cat''s name!''


    "Rocky, unfortunately, I have spoiled my granddaughter too much. I apologize for her rude behavior.


    Please, don''t mind her," Jackson Chen said apologetically.


    Rocky waved his head actively to assure him he wasn''t hurt. He also let Sue Chen y with little


    Rubygon for a while. But when the time was almost up, he said goodbye to both of them and left with


    Rubygon.


    Half a month passed by in the blink of an eye.


    Although Rocky was named captain of the sixth team, the crew wasrgely idle except for vain routine


    patrols. It felt like he was named captain just for the sake of it.


    Dejected and upset, Rocky spent most of his time in his own cultivation. However, the cultivation of the


    Earthly Stage had not been as easy as that of the Mortal Stage. In spite of the additional aid of the


    magical saliva, the progress had still been very slow.


    Compared to himself, little Rubygon grew much faster. This was because Rocky fed it a little magical


    saliva every day to speed up its growth. Around two weekster, Rubygon had developed the basic


    form imitating its parents. It exuded strength and honesty. More importantly, it seemed to be around the


    same size as Uriah before.


    Time passed, and now, little Rubygon was almost fully grown. It was time for Rocky to identify its star


    rating and figure out its hidden talent. This can''t be done earlier as it was too young and


    underdeveloped.


    Based on its parents'' appearance, Rocky found the rted records in the Beast Encyclopedia. To his


    surprise, Rubygon was a rare species of spirit-manipted beast which was called Bear-tiger. This


    species was considered to be powerful and cruel. Especially when agitated, they would lose all control


    and most likely, attack. To sum up, it could be a very frightening species. It was no wonder that even


    the third team and the fifth team suffered during their hunting periods in the Maze Forest.


    However, as per the Beast Encyclopedia, Bear-tigers were usually gregarious. Rocky was at a loss. He


    couldn''t figure out why little Rubygon''s parents hade to the Maze Forest to give birth to it.


    Generally speaking, a Bear-tiger''s star rating could range from four to two. If Rubygon could reach the


    fourth grade of the four stars, it would be as powerful as a spirit maniptor in the Heavenly Stage.


    Rocky could tell that Robygon''s talent was not less than that of Uriah''s. It just needed to be nurtured.


    However, since Uriah broke through from less than one star directly to three stars, its potential in terms


    of strength was unclear. Rocky had not been able to identify all of its attributes so far. Besides, Uriah


    had magical saliva and a super physique, both of which were umon for a spirit-manipted beast


    to possess. There was not a single record rted to Uriah in the Beast Encyclopedia, which made it a


    mysterious and strange new species that was worth studying.


    Rocky took little Rubygon inside the house andnded it on the ground. He sat down cross-legged and


    applied the Radiance Evaluation Skill as suggested in the book.


    He could see a triangr glow forming around little Rubygon. Suddenly, its body shed a variety of


    brilliance, and the zing streak reflected from the ground directly and ambiguously.


    "It seems Rubygon is definitely at least a three-star spirit-manipted beast!" Rocky felt overjoyed, his


    eyes gleaming with little Rubygon''s luminescence. The reason why he was so d was because the


    zing streak reflected from the ground was so indistinct that it was next to impossible to distinguish.


    After learning the evaluation skill, he had been able to easily identify spirit-manipted beast under two


    stars. Unfortunately, when the spirit-manipted beast reached three stars or above, he was still


    incapable of determining its star rating.


    This meant that if he could not quantify little Rubygon''s rating from the glow, little Rubygon was at least


    three stars. A three stars rated beast was already considered a pretty good one. If it were to turn out to


    be a four-star one, it would be really a big deal.


    However, generally speaking, a spirit maniptor could only control one spirit-manipted beast. So,


    no matter how strong little Rubygon was, it would still not be controled by Rocky, since he already had


    Uriah.


    "Can I only identify you as a powerful spirit-manipted beast but not control you?" Rocky saw little


    Rubygon rolling back and forth on the spot. Of course, little Rubygon in its prime years, was only


    thinking about ying. He smiled with a helpless expression on his face.


    Rocky was not one to give up so easily. He thought to himself, ''Why should every spirit maniptor just


    be able to manipte only one spirit-manipted beast?'' Going with the surge of feelings, he decided


    he must find a way to break this tradition. So he could make little Rubygon his own spirit-manipted


    beast. Fearlessly, he set out on a journey to study how to control two spirit-manipted beasts at the


    same time.


    If Rocky managed to pull this off, he would send shockwaves throughout the world...
