The legendary warrior

Ricky defeated Rupert. It meant that he had succeeded in challenging someone three levels above him. He was now a peerless genius.

"Alva, I am a peerless genius now. When will you wake up?" he whispered to himself. Not a long time had passed, but there was an empty, lingering space in his chest. He missed Alva very much.

Images of his father also floated by in his mind. "Where are you, father? Have you heard any news about mother?" Whispering a silent prayer, Ricky let his thoughts wander to those of the ones he loved.

...

"Is it over?"

A sweeping hush fell upon the warriors at the sight of Ricky emerging with his saber.

Were their eyes playing tricks on them? Rupert was among the strongest men they had ever laid eyes on. The very mention of his name was enough to make anyone shudder in fear. In the Water Fire City, his word was law.

But now, this young warrior who had not yet reached the age of maturity had emerged victorious from the battle. It was impossible not to feel stunned at the outcome of the fight.

As the curtain of air and dust dissipated, Rupert finally came into view.

His mangled body lay stretched on a deep pit, his limbs twitching their last spasms. A deep gash ran across his chest and blood pooled from it to the ground like a crimson carpet. There was only the sound of his gasps and sputters as the life drained from him with each second.

Then, there was nothing but stillness from his lifeless form.

Ricky's voice sliced through the awed silence of the people who watched the scene with disbelieving eyes. "Well, your Miraculous Water Orb doesn't seem to have anything special!" he proclaimed, walking to the deep pit.

"I am the winner!" His eyes scanned the crowd, then he pointed to Rupert's body. "And he, Rupert of the Zhen Clan, was just a pathetic loser," Ricky declared.
