The legendary warrior

To be more precise, the round ended up in a draw. Both of the sides were hurt badly.

Kent and Karl had suffered greater injuries, while Ricky's situation was not very serious in comparison.

"Theo, now! Kill them!" Half kneeling on the ground with one hand holding his weapon to support himself, Ricky loudly urged Theo into action. It was the best time to kill Karl and Kent once and for all. Otherwise, they would have enough time to restore their strength. By that time, it would be tricky to handle them.

"Ricky, now? I... " Ricky's cold-blooded order made Theo hesitate. He had no idea what to do. Somehow, he felt like killing the men at their weakest was ignominious. Besides, he was a bit scared to kill a person.

"I'll do it instead!" Kayla stood up and offered. She knew that Theo did not have the heart to butcher them. So, she took her sword and walked toward Karl and Kent.

She raised her sword high and was ready to pierce them with it.

She did not want to kill people either. Despite that, she understood that if she did not kill them, they would kill her and her companions. That was just a cruel fact.

"You want to kill us? In your dreams!" Kent roared.

In the next moment, he gathered his last breath and his strength. He forced out a drop of blood essence from his forehead and threw it toward the array which had almost faded away.

People usually had two types of reactions in such a life or death moment like that. One way to react was to be too scared to do anything at all, and the other would cause one to fight until their last breath to try to kill their enemy with everything they had in them. Even if they were going to die, they would not let their enemy kill them so easily. The latter was exactly what Kent tried to do.

"Kayla! Step back!" Ricky immediately shouted a warning to Kayla in concern.

Luckily, she was agile enough and withdrew back a few steps before he even warned her.

Kent, on the other hand, formed a blood claw, ready to attack again. Seeing Kayla step back, he decided not to attack her. The primary reason that he did not attack her was because he was not sure that he could manage to kill her. Kayla was in her prime, after all. What was more, he was losing his strength after he used a drop of blood essence. That loss of strength had made him extremely weak.

So, he changed his mind. There was another target near him. His new target was Ricky.

Kent turned to Ricky and intended to throw the claw at him. Although the claw only had the power of the seventh grade of Blood Purification, it was strong enough to kill Ricky, given Ricky's injured body.

"Ricky! Watch out!"

Kayla cried out trying to warn Ricky about the claw.
