The legendary warrior

But upon hearing those words, Ricky broke into disdainful smile.

'Oh, what a shame. They really are so ridiculous and unreasonable!' Ricky thought, annoyed.

"Ricky, you must explain it to us!" Elder Evan said to him.

Ricky responded respectfully, "I didn't punch Jarvis with all my energy just now. In fact, I showed mercy to him because he is also one of the disciples of the Snow Sect. Otherwise, he would not have only been injured with his bones broken. I made sure not to hit him with full strength. I knew it would be fatal for him if I did.

Besides, it's inevitable to sustain injuries during battles. If we weren't allowed to hurt others in the competition, how would anyone be able to show their strength and skills to prove their improvement of cultivation!?"

"Ricky, what you say is a baseless argument! You are challenging the authority of the Snow Sect!" Harald said maliciously, trying to shift the blame on Ricky.

"You, of all people, have no right to judge whether my argument make sense!" Ricky sneered.

Elder Evan shot a look at Zenith.

"All right now, stop it. Do not argue about this matter anymore!" Dignified, Zenith gazed around the square, adding flatly, "Today's competition is over. The competition for the top ten disciples will be held tomorrow."

No any disciples dared question this. Once Zenith had spoken, it was finished.

And with that, the day's competition for entering into top fifty disciples was completed. Again, Ricky became the main topic of conversations all over again. Most of the other disciples speculated about whether Ricky was more powerful than the top ranking outer disciple, Rufus.

When Ricky exited the ring, many warriors, especially those of Bone Reinforcement, from the Refinement Faction and the Casting Faction lunged at him, threatening him with cruel, malicious remarks.

Ricky ignored them. He knew it wouldn't be worth it to respond. Instead, he returned with Grace and Heather to their courtyard. He had to concentrate on regulating his breathing, getting ready for the most important battle. Tomorrow. Finally, it would be the day.

That day, Heather had also achieved her goal. She, along with Ricky, ranked among the top fifty outer disciples.

The battle to accumulate more points continued the next day.
