Born Almighty Warrior

Chapter 84 Conflicts

"Runic power! I can't believe it! Ricky knows how to use runic power!"

The grandmasters were amazed at the strength Ricky mustered.

It seemed that not only did he now have a spiritual meridian with two properties, but he was also able

to cultivate manuals. They had never heard of someone who had such a rare spiritual meridian, much

less met them in person!

"The Snow Sect is definitely going to extent much effort to train this young man! He has much potential

and promise. There's a high possibility that he could become a spiritual king one day!"

As they exchanged glances with each other, they seemed to come to a mutual understanding: they had

to try and get Ricky to join their faction, or at least get close to him.

They were quite confident that they would at least manage to get close to him.

For, from the ancient days to the present, heroes loved beauties. In the Snow Land, their clan, the Shui

Clan, had always boasted the most beauties of all the clans. Besides, it could be deduced that Ricky

and Agnes were getting closer and closer.

"It looks like that Jason and Elsa are going to lose," the grandmaster from the Groom Faction said with

a sigh.

"Oh, don't be so upset. You know that you can still have a third of all the resources this year," the

grandmaster from Sage Faction retorted.

"All the outsiders think that we are competing with each other for the resources. What the young ones

don't know is we're just pretending that we can't get along with each other to motivate our disciples!"

she added.

"Agnes, I wouldn't mind if you lean on my shoulder to get some rest. Don't worry. I won't charge you for

anything," Ricky said with a cunning smile. He had seen that Agnes could hardly stand anymore, so he

went to her to offer his support.

Feeling Ricky holding her arms with his warm hands, Agnes wanted to refuse his offer. Words rushed

to her lips, fighting to come out, but she swallowed them eventually. She was so tired.

Ricky could see on Agnes' face that she was a little reluctant to let him help her, so he dropped the

teasing tone at once. He had a feeling that if he kept messing around with her, she would definitely give

him a kick he wouldn't soon forget.

"Agnes, we've successfully passed the Bronze Men Array. But how do we get out?" Ricky asked.

"We have to wait for the results of the other two factions. We'll know once they pass or fail the array,"

Agnes replied softly.

Then she closed her eyes and began to heal her wound through cultivation.

About half an hour later, the hall shook a little, which meant that the competition had finally ended.

The three demi-immortal grandmasters opened the gates of the third floor for Ricky and Agnes to let

them out.

As soon as they emerged, the elders and disciples rushed to ask about the results at once.

A large cheer arose once the Sage and Purity Faction found out that their warriors had passed the Trio

Array. But the Groom Faction were quite upset that Jason and Elsa failed to pass the Bronze Men

Array.

Elsa was fuming. She felt let down by Jason's performance during the competition. She couldn't help

but call him out, reminding him that he had been bragging about his strength and capacity.

Jason ignored Elsa's angry insults. He simply turned to Ricky and stared at him.

Sensing Jason staring at him sullenly, Ricky thought, 'It's not my fault that they didn't pass the Bronze

Men Array. Why does he keep staring at me?'

But Jason thought differently. He felt that he had every reason to hate Ricky, because he had

humiliated Alan during their fight. And now, Ricky had passed the Bronze Men Array while he failed.

Jason made up his mind that he would never let go of his hatred for Ricky.

"Ricky Nan, let's battle, now!" Jason shouted with rage. Everyone present was surprised at Jason's

sudden challenge to Ricky.

They looked back and forth, from Jason's expression on his face to Elsa's cold demeanor towards him.

The disciples from the Shui Clan realized at once that Jason and was impulsively picking a fight with

Ricky to vent his jealousy of the winning warrior.

"It seems that the young master from West Vanity Valley has a fragile ego!" some disciples sneered.

Jason became doubly furious when he heard their remarks. He thought that Ricky was the reason that

he was being jeered at. Jason's brows furrowed in contempt. Ricky sighed resignedly. He didn't know

why he always became the scapegoat for someone's own problems.

The young man who represented Sage Faction had passed the competition as well. Ricky wondered

why Jason only wanted to picked up a fight with him. 'Does he think that he can walk all over me?'

Even if Ricky was annoyed and he wanted to teach Jason a lesson at once, he controlled himself. He

knew that it would be a waste of time. He replied flatly, "Okay, fight me then. But shouldn't you pass the

Bronze Men Array first?"

"How dare you pick up a fight with me when you failed at that!" Ricky continued, seriously.

Then Ricky shook his head, turned around and was about to walk away with Agnes and other disciples

from Purity Faction.

But Jason became more furious at being ignored. Clenching both of his fists, he prepared to attack

Ricky.

Luckily, one of the grandmasters from the Shui Clan stopped him immediately. "Jason, both you and

Ricky are guests here. We don't want any of you to get hurt."

Jason knew that the grandmaster who was speaking was a demi-immortal. He hated to let Ricky get

away so easily, but he knew that he had to. After hurling threats and insults at Ricky, Jason turned

around and left resentfully.

'I'm afraid that my return journey wouldn't go very well. West Vanity Valley also has some powerful

demi-immortals. Jason is not going to give up that easily, ' Ricky thought to himself as he watched

Jason's dejected figure walk away.

But Jason's confrontation was only a small annoyance. The highest priority that occupied his mind was

how he could beat the dangerous, mysterious man tomorrow.

If he lost, he wouldn't get anything from this competition.

Ricky had cultivated himself all night along. The next morning, the sun dawned on the day of the final

competition.

Agnes would be up against Dora, while Ricky was slotted to battle the mysterious young man.

If both Agnes and Ricky won the battles, Purity Faction would obtain control of Billow City. If only one of

them won the battle and they came out even, Purity Faction and Sage Faction would select other

disciples to challenge them in order to decide which faction would claim victory over the final

competition.

Agnes and Dora's battle came first. Both of them walked onto the arena.

"Agnes, you've won our last couple battles by sheer luck. I'm going to beat you this time!" Dora said

seriously.

"Show me your Overlapping Wave Palm! Let's see if you can beat me!" Agnes replied.

Judging from their attitudes toward each other, it seemed that Agnes and Dora held grudges against

each other. Ricky shuddered. Sometimes, the resentment women cultivated could be scarier than that

of men's.

Gathering her energy, Dora activate Overlapping Wave Palm and struck at Agnes. To Ricky, it looked

like Dora used all her strength.

Agnes refused to show inferiority, choosing to block Dora with Overlapping Wave Palm as well.

Some of their moves were so graceful that they looked as though they were dancing around the arena.

However, everyone present could tell that they were hitting each other with all their might.

Starting with Triple Waves Palm, they had now escalated to using Octuple Waves Palm. However, they

were still tied, each warrior holding up her end of the battle.

Most of the disciples were amazed that both Agnes and Dora had already mastered Octuple Waves

Since they couldn't beat each other with Overlapping Wave Palm, the women knew that the only way to

break the tie was to see whose blood power of innate spirit was more powerful.

"Hah!" both warriors shouted with all their might. There were glowing mists surrounding their bodies

and their power instantly surged to the level of Blood Purification.

If Ricky had paid more attention, he would have noticed that the mysterious young man had been

observing Agnes' and Dora's changes while they were activating the blood power of innate spirit.

He was looking at their moves very carefully. He appeared to be observing the changes of their blood

intently, greed written all over his eyes.

"Agnes! I will beat you!"

With the blood power of innate spirit, Agnes and Dora began to hurl strikes at each other again.
