The legendary warrior

Ricky knew that the Energy Boosting Pill was quite powerful.

If the warriors took that kind of pill, it could help them quickly burn the blood vitality inside their body and enhance their strength, making them as powerful as they could be for a whole hour.

There were no side effects, save for consumption of their blood vitality. And their blood vitality could be replenished by a good meal.

Not many warriors of Blood Purification had the Energy Boosting Pill. Many Bone Reinforcement warriors craved for it, too. No one expected that Dustin, a warrior of Skin Refinement, would possess that pill.

"Master Grace, what do we do?" Heather exclaimed anxiously.

"This time, he really is in danger," Grace uttered with a grave face.

However, she couldn't do anything about it, for she didn't have the right to alter the rules of the ultimate battle between Ricky and Dustin.

Maybe someone more influential than her could change the rules, but it was too late now.

"Ricky, I really hope you can find a way to beat him," Grace said under her breath, praying for Ricky. But she didn't think his chances were good. Being Ricky's master, she knew his cultivation base and skills very well.

...

"Go to hell!"

The Energy Boosting Pill only lasted an hour, so Dustin rushed Ricky, trying to take him down quickly. Then he gathered the sword-light energy and swung with all his might.

This time, Ricky feared for his life the moment he saw Dustin's blade.

"You first!"

Ricky roared, glaring at Dustin in anger and gnashing his teeth. Then he burned his blood vitality and activated the Nine-degree Body Refining Formula.

But everyone could see that it took a lot of effort for Ricky to do that.

Arms folded across his chest, Ricky tried to block Dustin's sword again.

he had managed to block Dustin's sword. His right arm had suffered a deep wound. Blood rapidly filled the rent and ran down his arm, dripping onto the ground. Even
