CHAPTER 787 THE RULE OF THE BATTLES

When the Heavenly Ape Demi-spiritual Emperor appeared, he communicated with Ricky in secret as

well.

"Each of you will fight against the other eleven warriors, which means that each of you will fight eleven

battles. When you win one battle, you will earn one score. If you lose the fight, you will not get the

score. In the end, the two people with the lowest scores will have to quit the battle for the Sense of

Realm."

The instructions were announced clearly by the Evil Emperor as all of the warriors listened attentively.

Although they were looking at the Evil Emperor, there was no doubt that they were subtly observing

each other's reactions as well.

They were all aware that all of them were extraordinary warriors. It would be a fierce fight, no matter

the opponent. Despite their confidences, they were all wise enough to know that they had no

assurance that they would win against their equally powerful opponents.

'Weldon and Hugh must be extremely powerful. I cannot guarantee that I can defeat them, ' Ricky

thought to himself after he used his four zones to test Weldon's and Hugh's strengths.

"Ricky, I did not expect to fight against you for the Sense of Realm. But it is a pleasant surprise. I will

not reserve my power and I will do everything I can to fight against you. Let me see how powerful an

ace genius is," Hugh said and chuckled in amusement. It would be fun to fight against a strong

opponent like Ricky.

"I am also looking forward to fighting against you, Hugh. I will use all my strength when we meet," Ricky

replied with a smile when he heard Hugh's message.

He could tell that Hugh received his message when he heard his laughter once again. Ricky could not

help but smile as well.

"Ricky, although it's the first time we have met, your reputation precedes you. I have heard a lot about

you and I am really looking forward to a battle with you. It's kind of surprising to know that I will have

the chance to fight against you very soon." To Ricky's surprise, Weldon talked to him telepathically as

well. It was surprising to receive a mental message from him.

"I'm flattered. I'm also looking forward to your performance," Ricky could not help but reply politely. He

knew that Weldon was powerful and he would enjoy their fight but he also hoped that he was the kind

of warrior that he could be friends with as well.

Ricky had heard some things about Weldon. He heard that Weldon was also an inner disciple like

Jasper. However, Weldon was less famous because most people only cared about Jasper and ignored

Weldon to some degree.

"There is something I would like to talk to you about, apart from the fight. It is about the rift between you

and the Bu Clan. I hope that you can stop treating them as your enemy."

"Oh? The Bu Clan? Do you have anything to do with the Bu Clan?" Ricky was a little surprised to hear

Weldon's words. However, from the way Weldon spoke, Ricky did not feel any homicidal intent from

Weldon.

"Sort of. The Bu Clan helped me in the past," Weldon explained. "I know that you have never

considered the Bu Clan to be a threat.

They asked me to tell you that they wish to resolve the grudge between you and them. They would like

to give you the cultivation resources that can fill one spiritual space tool. They sincerely want to get

along with you."

"I got it, Weldon," Ricky said and nodded. "But, let's talk about it after the fight, okay? The fight is our

priority, right? I believe we have the same goal."

"Yes, you are right. Let's talk about it after the battle is over!" Weldon agreed with a smile. Although he

had no assurance that Ricky would still talk to him later, he had heard that he was an honorable man.

He believed that no matter the results of the contest, Ricky would reach out to him later.

"Ricky, I will definitely defeat you this time," Soar also said to Ricky through their telepathic link.

"I'm looking forward to it! Show me how much progress you have made since we have last met!" Ricky

answered in a cheerful tone. Their conversation was cut short when the Evil Emperor continued with

his instructions.

"After you have entered the void, I will distribute the opponent to you using my ruling power." The Evil

Emperor waved his hand, and the twelve warriors all entered the void.

The space above the entire square was divided into six parts. Six battlefields were formed for the

twelve people.

"I never expected that you would be my first opponent, Amanda," Ricky said with a smile after he

entered the void. Yes, the first opponent he met was Amanda.

"All of us will get a chance to fight against each other anyway. We would meet sooner or later. How

about ending this match with just one move?" Amanda suggested.

"I will leave it up to you." Ricky nodded his head in agreement.

Bang! As soon as Ricky finished talking, Amanda burst with power. It was close to the power of an

upper spiritual king. She seemed to be as strong as Sam.

Swish! Swish! As her momentum surged, the air around Amanda gathered and formed red flowers.

Whenever those red flowers flickered, the space near them shattered. It was obvious that Amanda was

focusing all her strength on these flowers.

The red flowers encircled and integrated quickly before transforming into a giant lotus. The lotus was

giving out a seductive power that swept toward Ricky.

"That is not going to hurt me," Ricky said and challenged Amanda with a smile when he felt the Text property © Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org.

coquettish power. He activated his devouring runes and they immediately devoured Amanda's power.

"You are indeed an extraordinary man. You are not influenced by my provocative power at all. But this

doesn't matter, anyway, because I didn't intend to hurt you," Amanda said when she saw that Ricky had

devoured her power.

With a flick of her fingers, the red lotus bloomed and a red sword stabbed through the air right in front

of Ricky. Any weaker man would have been cut up by the sword in that short distance.

"My flower, please grant my sword your power!" shouted Amanda.

Fortunately for Ricky, he moved even faster. His massacring power permeated the air in an instant. In

the surging golden lights, ten Impregnable Killing Fingers appeared and circled the galaxy power

before they integrated. They turned into a giant golden finger and hit Amanda's red sword.

"Massacring Omnipotent Skill—Impregnable Killing Fingers!"

Bang! The next moment, the sound of metals clashing against each other rang through the air. Ricky's

golden fingers and Amanda's red sword collided with each other roughly. Dust billowed around them

when the energy pressure from their attacks disturbed the earth.

The two attacks were locked in a stalemate. The air between them crackled as pressure built between

the two weapons. Suddenly, the red sword broke into pieces. Ricky took back his Impregnable Killing

Fingers calmly.

"It seems that I have won, Amanda," Ricky then said in a low voice.

"You have become stronger than I expected. At this rate, I'm afraid that only Hugh and Weldon would

have a chance against you." Amanda appeared calm as she talked. She didn't think there was anything

wrong with her loss. Ricky was just too strong.

"Hugh and Weldon?" Ricky murmured to himself.

The first round of the battle soon came to an end. The Evil Emperor once again randomly assigned

their opponents for the second round.

Ricky's opponent in the second round was Simon. Simon was a little bit weaker than Amanda in terms

of strength so it was an easy victory for Ricky as well. In the third round, he met Thiago. Once again,

Ricky witnessed the strong power of the Array Mutant. He defeated Thiago and won after a fierce fight.

"An array deployer is truly powerful especially when everything is prepared in advance," Ricky sighed

in appreciation. He loved it when he faced a strong enemy.

In the fourth round, Ricky met Hugh.

"Ricky, I didn't expect that we would meet in the fourth round. I am ready and every part of my body is

straining for a fight with you—an ace genius," Hugh told him as he laughed.

Boom! He burst out his energy which rushed toward Ricky.

On his end, Ricky readied himself. Hugh's dominating power beckoned him to release his own. It

seemed that this fourth match would be interesting.

"I feel the same way. I could feel the overbearing power of saber from you, Hugh. You must be a skillful

saber wielder," Ricky praised Hugh highly.

"I heard that you are also good at using the blade. How about we fight with one then?" Hugh asked with

a laugh. Ricky smiled as well as he readied himself for a fight. If Hugh was looking for a challenge, then

he would give him one.

Buzz! Despite the laughter, both of them were serious in this fight. They respected each other greatly.

Because of this, they knew that they would each give their best.
