The legendary warrior

Just as the Dragon Intent Grass expected, over three-fourths of the participants were eliminated. Out of the thousands that took part, only hundreds of participants got into the second round.

Those who expected much from Ricky were all disappointed because it took him nine hours just to create a mediocre weapon.

'This guy looks innocent, but he is quite cunning. He's pretending to be weak so that his opponents would let down their guard, and then he'll take them by surprise, ' Kolton mused quietly as he observed what Ricky was doing.

Of course, he didn't fall for Ricky's trick since he knew the other man's real casting skills.

'But this proves that he already got over what Lanny had done to him. His spirit is strong, and his determination and persistence are even stronger, '

he thought.

In three days, the second test would begin in the Helian Clan's Casting Ladder.

The Casting Ladder had 999 steps in total, and the whole of these stairs was a supreme weapon of the Helian Clan that was designed for casting.

The Casting Ladder had two parts with inherently opposite environments.

Its left side was perfect for casting, as it had the ideal realm in weapon casting, spiritual power, and the power that could help warriors enter the state of casting.

A warrior's casting realm could improve exponentially in this environment.

In fact, the higher the stair, the better it was for casting masters.

The Helian Clan's members honed their casting skills in this place.

On the other hand, the environment on the right part was entirely different. It lacked spiritual power and didn't have the ideal realm in weapon casting. Worse, the energy that could help warriors enter the casting state occasionally disappeared.

In that place, the higher the stair, the worse it became for casting masters.

Unlike the left side, this part couldn't help warriors improve their casting realm. They could cultivate there, though, and it would help them enhance their current casting realm. The longer the time they spent in this place, the deeper understanding of the casting arts they would obtain.

these positive and negative environments made the Casting Ladder the best place for casting masters in the Misty
