The legendary warrior

"I don't think that's possible..."

Ricky shook his head sadly when he heard the Dragon Intent Grass' suggestion, "That's their business, so I can't really intervene. They have no choice but to oppose each other since they are going to fighting for the same thing.

It doesn't matter who falters, the Eight Diagrams they cultivated with their blood and sweat will be taken away. Don't you think that is more painful than death?"

"But I still think you should try. Your efforts will undoubtedly count for something. Besides, you don't want these friends of yours to get hurt, right?" the Dragon Intent Grass advised. It added, "You have the makings of a leader, and a leader has the charisma to influence people and make them see sense. You might be able to guide them into a peaceful solution."

"Me, a leader? I've never wanted that!"

Ricky vehemently responded. A boyish grin lit up his face as he added, "I already have my hands full with my own problems. How am I supposed to lead others? Still, you have a point. I'll try my best to stop Jasper and Mike from killing each other."

The confrontation between Jasper and Mike lasted only for a moment, for they were aware that this wasn't the right moment to have a duel. They could wait until the selection started.

The next moment, the First Deputy Chief arrived.

All the warriors and saints participating in the selection immediately greeted him, some respectfully bowing their heads. After all, the First Deputy Chief was superior to them in terms of status and in strength.

"Hello, everyone! I believe you all understand the requirements of the selection. Please do not break the rules. I can't guarantee what will happen to you if you do so,"

the First Deputy Chief announced in all seriousness.

"No one can challenge the rules, or they will pay a heavy price. The martial world may not subscribe to the conventional justice of society, but in this selection, the Misty South Palace intends to create equity and order."

As he said this, he glanced at the saints who had come to witness the event.

It was obvious that his words were intended for them.

After all, only those saints had the power to break the rules of the Misty South Palace's selection.

The weight of the First Deputy Chief's glance burdened the guilty saints, and they couldn't help but take a half-step back as if intimidated by his mere expression.

"Now, the selection starts! You will gather here again in two years. See you then!"
