CHAPTER 472 HE WAS A PEERLESS GENIUS
Boom! Boom! Ricky was taken by the power that hit him with the strong and hefty fist. In that moment,
his body felt so unbearably heavy that he was unable to make the slightest move.
"Don't bite off more than you can chew, young man. How dare you challenge a spiritual king! Do you
really think you are so uniquely strong? Don't be so stupid!" commented a disciple on the airship from
the Oriental College. Everyone was watching Ricky being shredded to pieces. Other disciples nodded
in agreement.
As for the warriors surrounding them, they were cringing and staring at Ricky with pity in their eyes, as
if they were watching a dead body. According to them, his fate was sealed, and they could picture it
even before it happened. He would either be smashed into mud or lose some parts of his body.
What they couldn't foresee was that Ricky's eyes were turning red and golden with rage. It was a sign.
He was desperate to fight back. Ricky had never been so eager to fight like this. The force in him was
weak, but his determination to fight was stronger than ever.
He had been waiting for this moment for way too long. He had only dreamt of it night after night. All his
urges were building up to this. This was literally his first time being hit by the innate power, exactly the
moment he was longing for.
"Is this the innate power? I've been waiting for you for so long! Great! Baron, you are going to be the
very first spiritual king that I'm going to defeat," Ricky promised himself with determination as a glint of
murderous light flashed through his eyes.
Buzz! Buzz! Before his voice faded, Ricky was surrounded by a golden glow. He was employing his
Nine-degree Body Refining Formula to the maximum extent. There was a buzzing sound as the
massacring runes spread all over his body, enhancing Ricky with greater power.
He did not possess any enlightening power or blood power of innate spirit. Instead, he circulated his
own power to resist the innate enlightening power. Only through this way, he was able to challenge a
spiritual king.
"The Massacring Golden Fist!" The next moment, Ricky burst out his power. All those massacring
runes moved swiftly and formed a golden corridor. Standing at one end of the golden corridor, Ricky
threw out a punch.
"How ignorant are you? How dare you fight back right in front of my face?" Baron roared in rage when
he saw Ricky's reaction.
Boom! Boom!
The entire space was filled with a blast. Baron's black wave and Ricky's golden wave met with a loud
thunder and caused a black hole. Their powerful waves continued to strike at the entrance of this hole,
ensuring it stayed open.
Soon after, the black hole engulfed the two fighters like a tornado swallowed everything in its way.
In the blink of an eye, the outcome was determined. That result shocked everyone except Soar and the
Heavenly Ape Demi-spiritual Emperor.
On the dais amidst the blast, both Ricky and Baron stepped backwards; three steps for Baron and
seven steps for Ricky. However, there was no sign of injuries on Ricky's body.
Three steps and seven steps did not matter a lot to them. It meant that Baron, who broke out his most
powerful strength, had taken Ricky to deuce!
Everyone was aware that Baron had exerted almost all his strength. Yet, he hadn't been able to harm
Ricky to the slightest. It proved that Ricky was not out of his mind to go to the spiritual king battlefield.
He was indeed capable of challenging the spiritual kings.
"How could it be possible? He is the only other warrior who can challenge a spiritual king as a demi-
immortal!" Gradually recovering from the shock, the crowd began to gossip about it.
They had heard of this old story where a demi-immortal challenged a spiritual king. That warrior was
the first inner disciple of the Oriental College. He was also deemed to be the very first warrior who
could possibly become a spiritual emperor in the next one hundred years.
Such a genius was called a peerless genius in the Oriental Realm. As a matter of fact, that kind of
talented genius was rare even in the largest land—the Middle Land.
When they digested the information about Ricky's true strength, the crowd changed their mind. They
were no longer disdainful or teasing. Instead, all of them admired Ricky very much for his
determination, willingness and strength.
A peerless genius was doomed to be a spiritual emperor. The level of a spiritual emperor was so high
above that they could never even imagine they would reach that level.
Meanwhile, there were also many warriors who were now desperate to kill Ricky. Power always came
with enemies.
After they had learned how talented Ricky was, they saw him as a threat. They all felt threatened,
especially those spiritual kings who wanted to kill Ricky for being so daring in the very first place.
Without any hesitation or further delay, they ordered their disciples to kill Ricky taking every opportunity
at all costs.
"How can it be? He is a peerless genius! This is just impossible!" Pearl, on the other hand, also
exclaimed in disbelief as she shook her head.
There were complicated feelings in her heart at that time.
Apart from her untouched beauty, she was known as the most powerful female warrior in the Oriental
Realm. People always considered her to be the prettiest female warrior in the Oriental Realm. Being
showered by such praise, Pearl could not fall in love with ordinary men. The only warrior whom she
thought would be a match for her was the first inner disciple of the Oriental College, a peerless genius.
Pearl only considered such a pure and exceptional mastermind to be her future husband.
Now, she was a bit regretful of her attitude. If she had known Ricky was also a peerless genius when
she first met him, she would have treated him more politely.
Wishing that Ricky had given her some hint about his reality in the beginning, she felt a little cheated.
Since Ricky turned out to be a peerless genius, Pearl didn't find him so detestable anymore. Her desire
to be with him overtook her.
'Ricky, are you really a peerless genius? I will check for myself very soon!' Pearl swore in her heart
adjusting herself while still recovering from the news.
She knew she could have any man she wanted and instantly decided to make this peerless genius fall
in love with her!
"He is a peerless genius! Oh my God!" Scar, on the other hand, was also dumbfounded at what just
happened in front of his eyes.
Now, he felt quite lucky himself.
It was not a bad position to be a servant of a peerless genius, after all. As long as the peerless genius
survived everything, he was going to be a powerful spiritual emperor sooner or later.
If a spiritual emperor asked him to be his servant, Scar would consider it seriously and deep inside,
would be very happy.
He felt that Ricky was a kind-hearted man with decent and respectful mannerisms.
"He is not being arrogant! He is a peerless genius!" Madeline also murmured in disbelief as she stared
at Ricky. She was totally shocked by his performance and new aura that seemed to form around him.
She began to understand why her hall leader, a ferocious and cruel man, wanted to protect this young
man with all his might. That was her thought, though. She would never know the real reason behind
Scar's behavior because there was no way Scar would tell her the truth. This is the property of Nô-velDrama.Org.
Those disciples of the Oriental College on the airship zipped their mouths.
Of course, they knew the strength of the first inner disciple of the Oriental College. They were well
aware of how terribly powerful and cogent a peerless genius was. If Ricky was admitted by the Oriental
College, he would surely become the new first inner disciple in a very short period as long as he was
trained properly.
They would dare not show any disdain or disrespect to him.
"You are right! He is absolutely a peerless genius! The Oriental College is going to have another
peerless genius soon!" both the Skyward Sword Spiritual King and the Array-shattering Spiritual King
exclaimed to the old man through telepathy instantly.
"You know, I did anticipate that, and yet here I am, shocked as the confirmation comes our way. His
capabilities are unparalleled," the Heavenly Ape Demi-spiritual Emperor also sighed in shock. "Such a
great time we are in right now. There are so many geniuses in this world and we will have two peerless
geniuses!"
The two spiritual kings stared at Ricky as if they were looking at some kind of precious treasure.
"You should pay attention to those men during the whole process. They are harboring malicious
intentions. Although, I have no idea what this young man did to them that made them so angry, I can
feel that they will play some dirty tricks during the competition," the Heavenly Ape Demi-spiritual
Emperor demanded in a serious tone the next second. He had sensed it from the very beginning that
Ricky was being hated by many warriors.
"Yes, we understand it and we will keep him safe!" the two spiritual kings replied as they nodded their
heads.
