Chapter 759 Overqualified

Mary wasn't confident in Rocky. All the interviewees looked at him like he was a joke and kept laughing in his face. None of them believed that Rocky was the one the clan was looking for.

"Young man, what's your name?" Harry asked.

"It's Rookie," replied Rocky impassively. He looked like he wasn't affected by all the mocking stares the people were giving him.

Meanwhile, as soon as Rocky said his name, the people around them burst into laughter.

And Mary's face broke out into a satisfied smile. She seemed to enjoy the sight of Rocky being humiliated.

"Where do you live?" Harry continued to ask, heedless of the ruckus going on around them.

"I'm from a remote country," Rocky added.

"And your parents are..." Before Harry finished his question, Rocky chimed in, "If you want to test me, then do so already. I think Miss Mary can't wait any longer to humiliate me."

At this statement, Harry and other beast curers looked at Mary, whose face had darkened in an inscrutable expression. She nodded at them as if to say 'get on with it'.

"It's very important to have a solid foundation when learning the art of Beast Curing Skill, and the basic foundation is to be able to identify the herbs and flowers that are used for healing the wounds of different spirit-manipulated beasts. If you want to be a disciple of the Xiao Clan, you need to learn to identify more than ten kinds of herbs first," one of the beast curers said to Rocky.

Then, a disciple of the Xiao Clan brought out ten kinds of medicinal materials from a plate and walked up to Rocky.

He was about to show them to Rocky, but Rocky barely glanced at them and said, "You don't have to do that."

After hearing that, Mary said, "Now you know how naive you are. You can't even recognize ten kinds of herbs. Don't overestimate yourself." She sounded haughty and self-satisfied at that moment, as she thought that Rocky had given up.

"Miss Mary, you misunderstood me. I said I don't want to see them, but that's because I already recognized them," Rocky said with a small smirk. He said that on purpose since he knew that Mary would misunderstand, and he wanted her to feel like she had won before he slapped her with the truth. T

Drugged one night by her ex-boyfriend, a mysterious man took advantage of her in an ecstatic night filled with sex.

To take her revenge, she married the man, and used him.

"As long as I'm alive, I'm still his legal wife, while all of you are just his mistresses."

She remained adamant even when he was involved in scandals with other women.

Eventually she stormed off after she learned that he had betrayed her again.But life brought her back to him a few years later, to his astonishment.

' she thought as she fumed in silence.

Of course, if he was just an ordinary person, he would have been tricked. After all, no one would think that Miss Mary had such evil intentions. But Rocky was expecting that Mary would deliberately cause trouble for him, so he wasn't caught off-guard.

Mary grudgingly nodded at Harry and the other beast curers, who were looking at her expectantly.

"All right, I guess he passed the first test. Harry, come and administer the second one." As she spoke, Mary didn't take her eyes off Rocky. Both of them stared at each other, as they waited for Harry to speak.

Harry also realized that Mary was deliberately creating trouble for Rocky, but he could tell that Rocky was quite skilled, as shown by his performance in the previous test. He studied Rocky for a moment then said, "Like doctors are to human beings, one should be cautious in treating spirit-manipulated beasts. To be a disciple of the Xiao Clan, one must understand some basic skills. Now, tell me, if there is a spirit-manipulated beast that has a cold stomach, in addition to swallowing hard, what does that mean?"

"Well, I remember when the old sow in my family couldn't eat, it often snored in the middle of the night, and its voice was as loud as thunder. If the spirit-manipulated beast couldn't eat anything, does it snore at midnight?" Rocky made a face as if he was stumped by the question, and he frowned and folded his arms across his chest, deep in thought.
