The legendary warrior

'This is humiliating, but I have no choice. I have to swallow my shame, for I do not have the strength to defend myself against him yet.

Strength makes the world go round, and the weak are doomed to be oppressed. If they want to survive, they have to learn to endure.

Survival should be my priority right now because, after that, everything is possible, ' Ricky carefully reflected himself in his heart.

"Huh? I'm surprised you can still stand up. Perhaps, I'm being too charitable," remarked Lanny with a nasty smirk. As soon as he finished speaking, he put more pressure on Ricky with his domineering aura.

He was well aware that he couldn't kill Ricky while the other man was a disciple of the Misty South Palace, and especially not in such a public setting.

Thus, he traveled all the way here just to humiliate Ricky, intending to provoke the other man until he went berserk or to discourage him, at the very least. He planned to show that no matter how hard Ricky worked, he would always be superior, and Ricky's efforts would always be in vain.

Of course, Lanny went through all this effort, not because he was confident, but because he felt threatened by Ricky's talent.

Not only that, but he also believed Ricky had acquired Eli's inheritance.

Eli wasn't the best warrior in his era, but he was certainly one of the most powerful warriors at the Potentate Level.

And if Ricky possessed two spiritual potentates' inheritances, he would be an obstacle in Lanny's path. Even if he lacked talent, Lanny couldn't underestimate him. But he knew that Ricky was a genius.

That was why he had to nip this in the bud. He had to cripple Ricky before he became too strong. And he planned to do this by discouraging Ricky until he lost heart and gave up on martial arts.

Just then, a voice resonated from nowhere, carrying an energy that prevented Lanny's energy from reaching Ricky. "Lanny, the Misty South Palace is not a place for you to clown about.

As a mere mutant, you're quite daring."

The surrounding warriors who heard this cried out in disbelief, "What?! That's just Lanny's mutant?"

It seemed like the mutant had performed too well, and it had everyone convinced that it was stronger than most of the demi-saints.

And if Lanny's mutant was this strong, they could guess how much stronger Lanny himself truly was.
