CHAPTER 352 THE BEST ROYAL SKY GUARD.

It was not easy to cultivate the dual powers. To be able to do this, a warrior must not only have a dual-

natured spiritual meridian, but also an unyielding and tough character.

Once a warrior has successfully cultivated the dual powers, his combat capacity would definitely

become invincible among the warriors of the same level. This was evidenced by Edgar and Ricky's

previous battles.

The only reason why Ricky gave up on cultivating frosty power was because the pace of the cultivation

of the frosty power was absolutely nothing compared to that of the space forces. The frosty power

became his weak spot, and so he decided to drop it.

were still a manic gale, the destruction of the thunder will be even more intense!' Ricky thought to

himself as the emotions inside him welled up.

From this, it seemed that Owen's level had already reached the middle level of a demi-immortal. Now

that he was facing the toughest opponent. Ricky was in a somber mood. He knew he was in danger --

a life threatening one.

However, Ricky quickly overcame his fear. He had to have confidence in himself, so he toughened up

and urged himself to believe in his own abilities.

Ricky had a unique skill -- the Flame Torrent -- which combined four kinds of flame. Ricky now felt

positive about his battle with Owen.

…

"I can't believe it. The dual powers! Is this Owen's trump card?" The Royal Sky Guards standing at the

foot of the stairs exclaimed. It was obvious that they were completely ignorant of Owen's dual powers

in spite of the fact that they had worked together for a long time.

Of course, this was mainly because they were a class apart from Owen. The same was also true for

Lucas. Among the Royal Sky Guards, no one could stand up to Owen's dual power.

"Damn it! Owen evidently kept his true strength a secret from us. We have completely underestimated

him," Tyson said as his lips curled. "I knew he was good, but I never expect he would be this strong."

"Owen!" In that moment, even Lucas began to detest Owen. Right then, Owen was ranked first while

Lucas was ranked second. All that time, Lucas had always thought that his fighting capacity was very

close to Owen's.

But now that they had witnessed Owen's dual powers, Lucas felt like some weak, laughable clown

despite the fact that he was also at the demi-immortal level.

…

"It looks like my trump card did not disappoint you," Owen told Ricky quietly.

"You're very powerful!" Ricky replied.

After exchanging a few words, the two stopped talking and instead focused on their breathing and their

own mind.

All of a sudden, Owen waved his Purple Thunder Saber, and at once, two spiral forces instantly

formed. One was the spiral gale, while the other was the spiral thunder. Together, the two forces

rotated at an extremely high speed.

In a flash, the combination of the two spiral forces evolved into a transparent purple spiral blade.

Even before the two powers broke out, the space around Owen had already been nearly broken.

"Destructive Spiral Strike!" Owen roared out loud, as he jumped high up into the air and launched his

most powerful strike. Wherever he went, the space around him broke.

"Flame Torrent, Four Flame Strike!"

At the same moment, Ricky jumped high in the air and launched his Torrent Strike.

The heat wave pervaded as the blade of the torrent roared out. There were four markers on the blade

of the torrent -- one for every kind of flame.

Under the chaotic fire runes, the hum and buzz of the four forces of flames were heard. Every single

space that the Torrent Strike passed through burned.

Boom!

In a blink of an eye, the two strongest strikes collided with a sharp piercing sound.

The moment the collision occurred, the Torrent Stroke pervaded as the Spiral Strike burst forth.

Seconds later, the three forces -- flame, thunder and gale -- spread in an instant. It flooded everything

including Owen and Ricky.

Then, due to the boundless air waves, two figures were flung into the air. The air waves were so strong

that even the huge golden stairs shook.

The Chief of the Sky Manor hurriedly activated her innate spiritual energy to steady the golden stairs.

The loud bang lasted for a few minutes before it vanished. At the foot of the stairs, the Royal Sky

Guards themselves were still immersed in it.

With great effort to steady themselves, Ricky and Owen moved forward.

Ricky's robe was torn everywhere, the corners of his mouth were bleeding, and his face was pale as

snow. Every step took so much effort that he had to kneel on the 36th step of the stairs as he panted

heavily. If it hadn't been for the Iron Destroyer supporting him, he would have completely slumped to

the ground.

Owen was in the same situation. With the dual powers still around him, he also found himself kneeling

on the stairs. He used his saber to support his weight.

It seemed as though their fighting ended in a draw. However, since Owen was kneeling on the 35th

step of the stairs and Ricky was on the 36th, Ricky was technically the winner.

According to the rules, Ricky won this time.

"It still ends in a tie!" said the Royal Sky Guards slowly as they finally started waking up from the trance

they had been in. They were no longer shocked because no matter who won or lost, it was all the

same. After all, Ricky and Owen were well matched.

But of course, there were rules to be followed, and they knew that it was technically Ricky's victory this

time.

"It looks like you have won!" Owen said with a smile.

"You know as well as I that I only won due to a technicality, or by a stroke of luck. If we had switched

positions before our collision, I would have ended up in your position on the 35th step of the stairs,"

Ricky explained with a laugh.

"Ha-ha, sometimes all you need is a stroke of luck. You know, I hate losing, but I am a pretty good

loser. I am genuinely convinced of your strength now, and I think you certainly deserve the title of the

best Royal Sky Guard!" Owen smiled.

"Remember that it's only temporary though."

"Ha-ha, I got it. Let's do it again another time," Ricky answered with a smile.

Then, they both turned to look at the Chief of the Sky Manor as they waited for her final say.

"Congratulations, Russell. As soon as you engrave your name on the golden plaque up there with your

fingers, you will be a real Royal Sky Guard," the Chief of the Sky Manor very slowly told Ricky.

"But I am totally exhausted right now," Ricky replied with a smile.

Upon seeing that Ricky was indeed totally exhausted, the Chief of the Sky Manor smiled and snapped

her fingers. Within a fraction of a second, the name Russell was engraved on it.

"Ricky, please don't forget that this test isn't really over, because the name on the plaque is not your

real name," the Chief of the Sky Manor told Ricky stealthily using her internal power.
