"I know these four guys will make it to the second floor! I wonder who will win in the end." The audience
stared up at the four figures standing calmly on the second floor with awe in their eyes, and their
discussion grew louder and louder in excitement as if they were the ones participating at that moment.
'I wonder how they will decide who will fight with whom, and which of them will set foot on the first floor,'
the spectators eagerly wondered.
As soon as the four competitors met on the tower's second floor, their auras surged. It was as if four
worlds had bumped into each other, confronting each other with immense and destructive energy.
None of them said anything, as they were all waiting for the decision from the second floor.
Suddenly, blood surged like a cresting wave, and two battle rings appeared. Then, the four people
separated into two groups. Ricky and Raylan appeared in one battle ring, while Ashley and Lundy
appeared in another battle ring.
"Ashley, it's not too late if you admit defeat now. I don't have the habit of treating girls nicely. If the
elders of the Wood Sect come to me one day because I hurt or even kill you, it will be a mess." Lundy
glared at Ashley as he spoke, his eyes cold and ruthless. He wasn't impressed by her holy
temperament at all.
In his eyes, there was only one thing that could attract his interest, and that was his grand plan. He
attached the utmost importance to his goal.
"I hope you're not saying that to yourself," answered Ashley. Her voice sounded like a fairy's laughter in
the wind or the voice of an angel singing in heaven.
But despite her allure, her killing intent was no weaker than Lundy's.
"So, you want to choose the hard way?" Lundy said coldly.
His soles drew a hot arc on the ground as Lundy released all his strength to the extreme. He moved so
fast that it felt like his feet were bursting into flames.
Ashley's aura also surged like an ignited flame, destroying her veil in the process. Her beautiful face
was finally revealed, which immediately aroused the desire of most warriors watching outside.
In the blink of an eye, their auras intertwined, resulting in an explosion. Bang!
"I never expected to see a dark horse like you in this battle over the Blood Beast King. You have really
surprised me. By the way, your grey hair looks very cool. How did you get it? Please tell me more about
that!"
Raylan shyly uttered, fanning himself, as he watched Ricky.
"This guy is too enamored with outer beauty. And how can he be so self-important?" Tina said honestly,
sounding slightly annoyed.
"Well, generally speaking, a person who places too much emphasis on outer looks typically has an ugly
inner side. I hope that when I defeat him, he won't hate me," said Ricky.
Meanwhile, he smiled at Raylan's superficial question and answered, "If you win, I will tell you."
"It seems that I have to make a move anyway," Raylan replied, taking on a more somber expression.
Clatter! At that point, the power around Raylan turned into a surging river, which straightly evolved into
a world. Invisibly, Ricky felt that an infinite water power had poured down from the sky.
Simultaneously, Raylan also threw away his girlish look, as endless murderous intent took over his
face, making him look fierce and bloodthirsty.
'The real peak state! He is a two-star lower spiritual emperor!' Ricky commented inwardly. He had
already figured out Raylan's real level as soon as his aura broke out.
It seemed that Raylan had a higher realm than him. After all, he had just made a breakthrough to the
two-star lower spiritual emperor and had not reached the preliminary stage yet.
And Raylan was undoubtedly strong among his peers.
Thus, Ricky gathered the six kinds of runes without hesitation, and six kinds of power burst out at once
and gathered together.
"Shit, he has six kinds of power! How can Ricky cultivate multiple forces? Plus, he has double mutants
too. No wonder he is so extraordinary," said a talented warrior outside.
"Are you looking down on me? Why are you only using six kinds of power to fight against me but not
your double mutants?" Ricky's six kinds of runes surprised Raylan, but he was still unhappy because
Ricky didn't burst out the double mutants.
He felt like Ricky was underestimating him.
"Try it!" Ricky challenged him casually.
"Okay, fine! Now, you have really irritated me," Raylan replied with an icy glare.
Boom! In the next moment, Ricky's six kinds of runes turned into six torrents, rushing to Raylan like a
catastrophic tsunami. In response, Raylan stamped the ground with his feet, and overwhelming rivers
poured down infinitely.
In a flash, the seven forces had plunged the whole blood-colored battle ring into chaos.
Technically speaking, there were eight kinds of forces. Ricky's life and death power could be
considered as two kinds of power—life and death.
At this time, Ricky and Raylan rushed forward without fear and faced each other head-on. Their arms
hardened like steel, colliding against each other over and over.
Each collision contained all their power. After the last collision, they retreated heavily unto opposite
sides. Both were slightly injured because of their attacks' strong impact.
However, they were already in the peak state as they fought against each other. How could they care
about the injuries? They had to stabilize their bodies and continued to attack.
From the outside, all the spectators could see were two figures shuttling back and forth, accompanied
by loud sounds of collision one after another. A few minutes later, blood sprayed out like a fountain.
All the warriors held their breaths as they watched the two battle rings. They didn't even want to blink
for fear of missing out.
Boom! More waves of mushroom cloud burst out, and two frazzled people stepped away from each
other. They were Ricky and Raylan, to be precise.
Raylan had a sullen look on his face.
Not because Ricky was strong, but because Raylan felt ashamed. Before the collision, he was angry
that Ricky did not burst out his double mutants' power. But now, Ricky, who hadn't burst out his full
power, seemed to be almost as powerful as him.
To be precise, Raylan was at a disadvantage in this physical collision. He was in great pain right now
because he had taken the brunt of Ricky's attacks just now.
On the contrary, Ricky had simply bounced off the power he had poured into Ricky's body, so he did
not hurt much.
As he thought about this, Raylan grew angrier.
"Raylan, it seems that you can't force me to activate my double mutants with the strength you used just
now. And after I had fought you for a while, I learned that no matter what you do, you are a little weaker
than me," Ricky contemptuously sneered as he looked down at Raylan, who was looking back at him
murderously.
"You are courting death!"
Raylan couldn't help but lose his temper after hearing Ricky's words, but he managed to control himself
quickly. Instead, he smiled and uttered in a low voice,
"You are trying to provoke me with your words, right? Don't overthink it." "Oh! I didn't expect you to
realize that. You're smarter than I thought," replied Ricky with a sly grin. "But it doesn't matter because I
can defeat you anyway."
"Humph! How dare you say that! Next, I will show you that your body and your double mutants mean
nothing to me! All of your talents and skills are just trash in front of my mutant," Raylan roared
angrily.
