"So, do we have to go and attend it?" Rocky asked.
"Yes, of course. Godly Geniuses must attend this festival. After all, this a chance for you to test each other's strength. Well, with your current strength, I believe that no one among the other Godly Geniuses could match you. But it is still a good opportunity for you and Valeria. Moreover, although the king decided not to pursue the matter about the Purgatorial Tripod in the meantime, it doesn't necessarily mean that it's over. If we do not abide by his wishes, he might find an excuse to make things difficult for you again," Gilbert warned.
"Don't worry, you will find it interesting. You will also have a chance to subdue precious demonic beasts during the festivities," he added.

Thanks to Rocky, he was able to recover. Moreover, ever since his injuries were fully healed, he became much stronger. In fact, he had now reached the premium stage of the Emperor Realm.
However, it seemed that he did not want to deal with the dragon directly. He just stood in front of it, barely moving at all.
After quite some time, the Flaming Blood Dragon could not stand it any longer. Since Quentin would not make the first move, the beast decided to take the initiative to attack.
In response to the dragon's movement, Quentin quickly activated his spiritual power to resist the attack and protect himself.
The Flaming Blood Dragon repeatedly tried to break through Quentin's defenses, but it utterly failed. Eventually, the dragon began to feel exhausted and out of breath.
Deeming that it was the right time to take action, Quentin launched a powerful blow, instantly knocking down the demonic beast.
