The legendary warrior

Their forces collided fiercely, and soon after, it began to dissipate. As the dust settled, two figures came into view. Ricky was bent down, clutching on to his chest, blood dripping from his mouth.

"I'll finish you in three moves," Benny declared arrogantly when he saw that he had managed to injure Ricky.

'Well, there does seem to be a gap in power, ' Ricky thought to himself, wiping the blood off his mouth.

Benny started gathering his strength and the black devouring power surrounded him. He was getting ready to launch a potent attack against Ricky.

If his opponent had not been Ricky, Benny might have chosen to play with him before taking him out. But Ricky was famous. He was known to be strong and his talent was spoken widely of. Benny had no choice but to go all out. He didn't want to give a single moment for Ricky to counter. He had to defeat him as soon as possible!

"Since you are prepared to finish me in three moves, I guess I can't hold back anymore," Ricky said with a smirk.

And soon after, the land reverberated with the sound of a dragon. Power began to gush out from the seven runes; they were no longer ordinary runes, but holy runes which contained the holy power of heaven and earth.

In an instant, Ricky's momentum and strength greatly improved by many folds.

Without wasting time, the two clashed once again, but this time, they were matched in strength and speed.

"It looks like this round is a tie. This man is able to challenge higher level warriors again. It is possible that he had never lost the ability, but he had been hiding his true strength on purpose during his fight with Fernando," Mordechai analyzed as he watched the fight.

"That's not it. When he became a middle-level spiritual emperor at peak state, he had almost lost the ability to challenge superior levels. But he has now become a casting master of Sage Level. The power of the holy runes has helped him get back that ability. As you may already know, Ricky possessed the runes from his birth. He never had to cultivate to achieve them.

Owing to that, I presume he could challenge warriors who are stronger than him when he is a middle-level spiritual emperor at peak state.

But once he becomes an upper-level spiritual emperor, he would stand no chance against those with superior levels unless he acquires some special power,"

the Evil Mandragora explained.

"I see. But still, even though he couldn't challenge someone of higher level, no one at his own level could be a match for him at this point," Mordechai replied.

At that moment, Mordechai felt a vague sense of pressure. He knew that Ricky was no weaker than him now.
