Born Almighty Warrior -
Chapter 762 Gorden
The part where Ricky unleashed his counterattack really went beyond the expectations of Sellers and Lynch
"Humph!" Ricky huffed. "It seems they did not expect that I would fight back after I broke through. Or rather, they did not really believe or think that I would break through this time." Ricky talked with Tina, as he witnessed the frightened reaction on Lynch's face.
"That's the kind of mistake usually made by those in high positions,” Tina replied frankly. "Unfortunately for them, they don't really know me,” Ricky sneered
The entire scene that had just taken place woke Pearl up. At that time, she was still in seclusion. Waking up, she was met with her mixed feelings towards Ricky as different aspects of him had really penetrated through her.
Pearl couldn't help but ask herself in her heart, “If I really had the chance to kill Ricky at this moment, would I really be able to make up my mind and kill him?"
After his speech, Ricky's attack had already made its way to the Soul Sea of Lynch. Of course, he would not kill Lynch immediately right then and there. Rather, he would definitely make it so that Lynch would be unable to exert his casting level to its full capacity. Even if Lynch could still cast a weapon at the intermediate stage of Spirit Level, it would be too weak and incapable that it would simply become the worst weapon he would ever cast.
“Damn it! This time, this guy's attack is even more powerful. There is no possibility that I can withstand it. Once I fail to withstand it, my spiritual power will be greatly damaged!" Lynch thought to himself with gritted teeth.
He was not a subordinate of Sellers. If he had to help Sellers get the Heaven Soul Stone by ruining his casting career, then he would definitely reject the opportunity. If he chose to run away, then he would receive a certain amount of torture in the future. Yet, if he considered the fate that met Meade in the end, then that would make running away his best choice at the moment.
"Retreat!" He yelled with full force. Without saying anything else after his order, Lynch tore up the space and left the casting square.
Leaving the premises of the casting square meant that he had completely quit the competition. It also meant that Ricky couldn't attack him again.
All the people in the casting square were naturally surprised and confused at the sight of Lynch's sudden retreat. No one ever expected that Lynch would have the guts to quit or leave in the midst of the casting competition.
Ricky had no choice but to deactivate his attack.
"Ricky, it seems that Lynch just made an agreement with Sellers. He is not Sellers’ subordinate," Tina exposed after witnessing what had just occurred.
"He is smart. If he didn't choose to retreat, I would have definitely ruined his casting career!" Ricky exclaimed. "After all, they had never give me any chance to win. And I will do the same to them.” "Tina, can you imagine how Sellers is feeling right now?" Ricky laughed heartily. The thought of Sellers’ reaction simply delighted him to his heart's content.
"Sellers, it seems that your helper is quite unusual. He got cold feet in the middle of the competition. I haven't seen such a surprising scene in such a long time," Cameron and Harrison snickered at Sellers. They were communicating through their internal powers.
Sellers was extremely angered by how he was being ridiculed by Cameron and Harrison. He could not help but want to kill the people around him as he noticed their expressions. It felt as though they were all laughing at him. He was indeed resentful, but he had to control himself not to attack. As long as he could put up with all the mockery, then he would still have a chance. But if he attacked, Gorden would definitely take action.
Thus, he had to try his very best to suppress his anger.
"Lynch, why didn't you even try to resist his attack?" Sellers was currently having a serious and heated talk with Lynch. He was seething with so much anger that he lashed out on Lynch as they communicated telepathically. Sellers was trying his best to restrain himself from slitting Lynch's throat that very moment.
"Why can't I run away? Do you want me to end up like your disciple?” Lynch responded coldly. He was not afraid of Sellers at all. "If I had enough strength, then obviously, I would not run away. You are also aware of the current situation that we're in.
If you have the time to scold me, then I suggest you take the time to think about how to deal with Ricky later instead. Do you think he would still have the heart to let you go once he reaches a new level at the end of the competition? You may have the Casting Center supporting you, but I'm afraid that you still can't stop an ace genius who has already come and grown this far."
After that, Lynch wasted no more time and left the area. He left Sellers alone and made him twice angrier than he was before.
At that moment, no one noticed the evil smile on Meade's face. He grudgingly thought to himself, 'You deserve that, old bastard! You must be filled with wrath right now! You regarded me as nothing more than a pawn. Who knows, from the moment you accepted me as your disciple, you never truly recognized my true abilities. You had been looking down on me all this time.
After all the recent events that transpired, it has become clearer to me that no one else can be relied on but myself. Obviously, the world of martial arts is a merciless battlefield where the strong will persistently dominate the weak."
"It seems that the battle is over.” The warriors around the casting square murmured to each other. At the very beginning, the ten individuals, including Howell, seemed to be very strong. There were also Meade and Lynch who were respectively recognized for being very gifted in weapon casting No one had expected that they would be defeated so easily, and that Sellers would end up losing the competition.
"I'm afraid that only Ricky himself knew from the start that he would be declared the winner. Otherwise, he wouldn't make such a breakthrough.”
"Cameron, we win this time," Harrison repeated with pride.
"Humph!" Sellers crossed his arms, annoyed. "I will leave everything here to you two chiefs!” With a snort, he stormed his way out of the casting square. He really felt too ashamed to even stay a second longer there.
Regardless of all the other conspiracies that had been happening, Ricky had now fully shifted his focus on casting.
Eight hours later, all the disciples were already done with their casting.
Then, Cameron and Harrison also came to identify each of the weapons. Ricky naturally won the first place. Following him in the ranks were Meade, Kylie, Finley and Jake of the Star Sect.
Jake did not participate in the plot for vengeance against Ricky. Thus, he opted to cast at his normal level and was able to surpass people like Howell.
"Excellent! It's a wonderful casting competition. It has truly amazed me!" an old and slightly shaky voice exclaimed.
A crack appeared in mid-air and an old man with white hair donning a white robe stepped out. The old man appeared ordinary, as though he were a normal creature with nothing special or extraordinary to offer. The robe he was wearing was tattered all over.
"Gorden!" Seeing the old man, Cameron and Harrison were both surprised. Still, they managed to call out to his name respectfully.
Immediately, all the other warriors followed and greeted him politely as well.
After all, the old man who stood in front of them now was not only a casting master of Demi-sage Level. He was also a spiritual emperor who was qualified to become a casting master of Sage Level "Hmm!" Gorden rubbed his chin and nodded slightly, before turning his head to Ricky.
"Your name is Ricky Nan, isn't it? You have done a really good job. I have to admit that you have a good grasp of runes and casting weapons. I have a high opinion of you now. What's more, you have passed the Casting Path. I am the only one who knows the real difficulty that comes with passing the Casting Path.” Gorden praised Ricky for his outstanding performance.
"You are quite delightful, sir. I appreciate your recognition, but I still have a lot to learn!" Ricky beamed and replied with deep appreciation and regard.
"Now that you've won first place, you deserve the corresponding reward. From now on, you can enter the Soul Tower to cultivate at any time that suits you best." Gorden couldn't help but appreciate Ricky even more after he couldn't find or see any trace of arrogance in him.
"Thank you so much!” Ricky nodded and expressed his heartfelt thanks.
"Of course, the Heaven Soul Stone now belongs to you. That's something even I myself have been wanting so much!" Gorden said a little reluctantly.
Based on Gorden's words and expression, it was clear that the Heaven Soul Stone was too precious a treasure.
As such, it was explainable that all eyes were now fixed on Gorden's hands. They all wanted to see what the Heaven Soul Stone looked like.
Even Ricky couldn't hide his excitement.
With the help of the Heaven Soul Stone, he could break through his current level and become an upper spiritual king more quickly.
