"How was it? Now it's time to keep your promise, Master!" Ricky grinned.
"It seems you've revealed your true casting ability!" Grace replied.
"I had to. You can't make an omelet without breaking some eggs," said Ricky, chuckling. "Moreover, I didn't lose anything because of that. It was just a little bit of my method that I taught Olivia."
"Well, I just hope you won't be quickly surpassed by your disciple," said Grace, raising an eyebrow.
.....
The subsequent days saw Ricky and Edgar continue their recruitment for members among the outer disciples.
As for the inner disciples, they wouldn't approach them yet. After all, it would be a difficult task as they didn't know any of them and their natures and personalities in the least.
Their rules and principles about recruiting members were that they would have to always primarily consider their nature and personality.
Vivian, an old friend of Ricky, joined in without hesitation. In addition to Vivian, they also found ten more members, all of whom had been bullied by the Refinement and Casting Faction and also worshiped Ricky.
While Ricky and Edgar were recruiting members, the news that Ricky was planning to found a faction had now spread to most of the Snow Sect, like a tornado that travelled with the fastest winds.
The members of the Refinement and Casting Faction laughed their heads off when they heard that.
As expected, they also remarked unkindly that as long as Ricky pushed for the establishment of his faction, they would definitely cause him some grief.
....
"This continent is called the Misty South, so I'd like to call our faction the 'Misty South Faction.' I hope one day, everyone will know the name of our faction as THE FACTION of this continent!" Ricky said, his eyes shining with aspiration.
And so it came to be that the 'Misty South Faction' was born.
Edgar, Grace and the others had no objection to this.
Besides, they didn't know the true meaning of this 'Misty South' in Ricky's mind. If they had, they would think he was out of his mind.
He wanted his faction to be famous in the whole continent? He should be elatedly satisfied if it could just survive in the Snow Land!
......
Soon enough, Ricky stood in the main square of the Snow Sect and announced that the Misty South Faction was officially established.
Ricky, Edgar, Heather, and the other members who had joined them were standing on the arena. They wanted nothing but to tell disciples of the Snow Sect that Misty South Faction was officially established today.
There was a sea of people in the square, again gathering to witness this controversial warrior's pronouncements.
"I don't know how Ricky can be so confident. How could he have the nerve to found a faction with very few people?" Some of the outer disciples shook their heads, thinking that he was more foolish than he had previously seemed.
When the other factions had been officially established- the Refinement Faction, Casting Faction, and Amber Faction- they had already gathered hundreds of outer disciples and many strong inner disciples. This so-called Misty South Faction looked so weak, its numbers paltry.
"You'll see, the people of the Refinement and Casting Faction are about to make a mess."
......
Suddenly, a large group of people came from the east. They were the members of the Casting Faction. There were over two hundred people, headed by Gennadi who ranked top one among the inner disciples, Clyde who ranked fourth and Roger who ranked ninth.
The Casting Faction, led by three of the top ten inner disciples, had numerous powerful inner and outer disciples.
Then, another group of people came from the west, boasting a crowd that exceeded that of the Casting Faction. It was, of course, the Refinement Faction, who were led by another three of the top ten inner disciples.
