When Queenie spoke, she had already taken the dagger away from Juey's face. She did not show it, but she did not really want to hurt Juey. She just wanted to frighten her and give the members of the Xiao Clan a little lesson. What she didn't expect was that there would be someone who would suddenly step in her way. This caught her off guard and ruined her plan.
"I'm just a servant from the Magical Beast House," Rocky said calmly.
At this moment, every Xiao Clan member looked at Rocky with shock. No one expected that he would say the origin of the tendon. Mary was taken aback as well. She let out a small gasp upon hearing Rocky's words. Rocky had surprisingly passed the disciples recruitment interview and even embarrassed her in public. Ever since that happened, she held a grudge against him. Of course, she wanted to take her revenge. She wanted to find an opportunity and teach Rocky a lesson. However, now that he was able to answer Queenie's question correctly and even saved Juey, she had mixed feelings. However, it didn't change the fact that she hated Rocky.
Raef, on the other hand, had never seen Rocky before. He stared at him strangely. His eyes wandered Rocky's presence from head to toe. His brows were furrowed as if he was thinking of something. There were two reasons for Raef's confusion. First, he wondered how Rocky had known that the tendon came from the Heavenly Wing Fish. Second, he felt as though Rocky wasn't a servant at all. Indeed, he claimed to be a servant, but he was very calm and relaxed among their presence. Raef then wondered about Rocky's background and what his purpose was for coming to the Magical Beast House.
"A servant? How could a servant know about the Heavenly Wing Fish?" Queenie said in a tone which clearly sounded doubtful. She obviously didn't believe that Rocky was just a servant and thought he was lying.
Lucas' shrewd and turbid eyes also started to examine Rocky. With his cultivation base, he could naturally perceive some hidden strength from Rocky, but he didn't say it out loud and expose it to the public. He kept his calm, but he couldn't stop his eyes from flashing with interest as he stared at Rocky.
"I've seen it on a book," replied Rocky indifferently.
"A book? So you didn't actually know it, but guessed it right. I knew it." Queenie was a little surprised,
d hesitate, because she didn't want to lose out to Rocky.
In Queenie's opinion, Rocky was just an ordinary person, so she guessed that the fur must belong to some waste spirit-manipulated beast. She then boldly said, "It must belong to the Lion-headed Silver Dog."
"I'm sorry, but you are wrong." Rocky shook his head as he heard Queenie's response and gave her a smile.
"What? I must be right. You can't lie to me," Queenie said confidently.
"If you don't believe me, then ask your master." Rocky turned to look at Lucas. He noticed the subtle look on Lucas' face when he took out the silver fur, so he knew that Lucas must be able to tell which spirit-manipulated beast the fur came from.
"Queenie, he's right. This is not the fur of the Lion-headed Silver Dog, but from a rare beast: the Ghostly Ice Fox-wolf. This Ghostly Ice Fox-wolf was born from a spiritual beast and a war beast, and it has inherited the bloodlines of both the beasts and has a very high talent. Its fur is soft, tenacious and would become thorns as long as it meets ice. Just like this!" Lucas said as he glanced at Queenie. At the same time, with a wave of his hand, an icy spiritual power brushed the silver fur on Rocky's hand, which turned into an ice thorn in an instant.
Everyone watching let out a gasp. They weren't expecting Rocky to win. When Queenie saw what happened, she couldn't help but open her mouth wide, showing her surprise. At the same time, she glared at Rocky with some hatred, because she knew that since she guessed wrong, it meant that she lost out.
