Born Almighty Warrior
Chapter 342 The Ringer

Maxine didn’t sense any strong power from Ricky. She looked down on him, mistaking him for merely an average guy.

"Well, I disagree. As far as I know, you can only ask but you can't interfere. If you're not convinced, what about picking a partner to fight with me?" Ricky replied.

"Kristen, your little friend doesn't look very strong, but his mouth is pretty big for his body!" Maxine said spitefully, paying no attention to Ricky's challenge.

To her he was nothing, not even worth replying to.

"His strength is not measured by your words," Kristen replied coldly.

"Kristen, you really are just as overconfident as before! I didn't expect to hear myself say this, but I hate it more than your arrogance!” Maxine snorted. "Well then, I have the right to test his strength.” She hated Kristen's confidence and decided that defeating Ricky would be a good way to embarrass her. She'd had an inkling of this idea right at the start, and latched onto it now.

"Up to you!" Kristen responded nonchalantly, sounding as though she didn't care--or perhaps, was just very confident.

Kristen's response drove Maxine even crazier!

"Alright! If you say so!" Maxine scoffed, immediately flashing her cold eyes at Ricky.

Kristen could sense Maxine's anger and found it ridiculous to see how her temper was so easily stirred. Maxine did not know about the real Ricky, who had challenged many warriors three grades higher than him. And as a demi-immortal, Kristen couldn't even defeat Ricky, even if she hurt her eyes!

And to think that Maxine was only at the ninth grade of Bone Reinforcement at most!

"I suggest you choose another partner to compete with me. Even though I don't like you, a gentleman wouldn't punch a girl,” Ricky said condescendingly.

"This lad isn't from the Sky Manor, right? How dare he step up for one of the two pearls of the Sky Manor! How arrogant indeed!"

"Yes, he sure is. A reliable source told me that Maxine got a great opportunity in this year to make great progress and reach the ninth grade of Bone Reinforcement! If she condenses enough innate power, she will make a breakthrough and become a demi-immortal!"

"Wow! She's not even twenty-four years old! What a goddess!" many warriors began to murmur in admiration.

"This kid is in trouble for sure. He will be beaten so hard even though he is Kristen's companion!" The other warrior's appreciation brought Maxine's arrogance back and appeased her anger, especially when she heard them referring to her as a goddess. She seemed to forget about her anger.

Just then, a young man behind Maxine stood up and said to her, "Maxine, you don't need to make your hands dirty for such a lowlife. Let me do it for you. I will teach this reckless kid an important lesson on your behalf."

He directly demonstrated his power at the intermediate stage of Bone Reinforcement.

Maxine nodded. She really would have liked to punish him herself. But she knew that an elegant girl should not fight with some no-name rascal unless it was necessary!

She flipped her hair back and smiled icily.

"Is he Morton from the Mo Clan?" Many warriors recognized him immediately when he stood up. "Yes, he is! He's expected to become the next master of the Mo Clan. Besides Maxine, he is the best warrior in their clan. Just thirty years old, he is in the intermediate stage of Bone Reinforcement. He is a genius of our region!"

"I see. Well, that kid is in a lot of trouble now!"

"You! If you get down on your knees and apologize to Maxine, I will let you enter the city!" Morton said, staring fiercely at Ricky. "I don't want to witness you being beaten to a pulp by my fist!" Morton slowly raised his fist, yellow spiritual energy surging around it.

"Fortunately, it is a man this time, otherwise I wouldn't have the heart to fight!" Ricky replied and raised his fist just like Morton had done, with flames burning around it.

"You're playing with fire!” Morton snorted, knowing that Ricky only did the same gesture to mock him.

Morton launched a rapid and strong attack, a punch beaming with yellow light rushing at Ricky's face.

Activating his strongest power, Morton really intended to kill Ricky!

Ricky casually reacted by sending back the same gesture at the same speed.

But of course, the result was completely different!

"Boom!" Morton flew backwards and fell on the ground, the sound of breaking bones coming from his body.

He cried loudly and rolled over, his uninjured hand clutching his arm.

The crowd was silent, especially Maxine who was dumbfounded. As Morton's cries escalated, she stared at Ricky with hatred emanating from her horrible eyes.

She realized Ricky was a ringer, a pretty strong warrior pretending to be a nobody.

She also realized why Kristen always dismissed her and considered her as a clown.

Of course, she did not know that Kristen was already blind. Otherwise, she would have picked a fight with Kristen right when she saw her!

And judging from what just happened, she could tell that Ricky's power was equal to hers. She frowned. No. It was probably greater.

All of these filled her with more hatred and jealousy. "Why? Why can Kristen always easy surpass me?

Why do all these geniuses with real strong power always stand by her side?"

"Do you notice that he is only at the seventh grade of Bone Reinforcement?" some warriors murmured after they recovered from the shock.

"How is it possible? He must have used a method to hide his real power! That way he can pretend to be weak and defeat others who've let their guard down!"

"It must be!”

"Kristen seems to have the upper land in this competition again!"

"It's remarkable! Just in his early twenties, this lad has the power of a warrior at the ninth grade of Bone Reinforcement!"

"Well, I thought we could fight for a few rounds if there was a man. But who knew that the competition would end so disappointingly?" Ricky sighed.
