The giant golden shadow loomed over the whole blood-stained battle ring. This golden power was like an ocean surging with powerful currents, and from within the golden shadow, seven large lion heads the size of a mountain popped out.
The first impressions the seven lion heads made could be summed up in three words—fearsome, deadly, and ruthless. The Seven-headed Golden Lion seemed to have enough power to rule the whole world.
And then, the seven loud sounds earlier during the fight became more intense and long-lasting, making Ricky's ears ring painfully.
"It's really rather powerful!" Ricky yelled out in surprise.
"Humph! What's so special about that? The Nine-headed Golden Lion is mightier and more domineering!" the Dragon Intent Grass commented as he looked unimpressed. "It was said that when the ancestor of the Nine-headed Golden Lion roared, its sound could be heard from every corner of the earth. It reached the highest heavens to the depths of hell."
"Is it that powerful? Are you sure you're not exaggerating?" Ricky murmured.
He didn't have the luxury to think that far, though, as his enemy right now was Lionel. He needed to focus on the here-and-now.
Due to Lionel's roar, many geniuses on the other battle rings far from the third floor turned to look at them. They were shocked when they saw that Ricky had forced Lionel to unleash his beast form.
'He is so powerful that he forced Lionel to show his beast form,' Sumner and Mona thought in shock.
Meanwhile, Ashley and Raylan looked grim and slightly anxious. The truth was they were somewhat intimidated by Ricky, whether they wanted to admit it or not.
'So, you used to be an incredible demi-spiritual emperor. I hope you won't be my opponent. Otherwise, your miracle will end very soon,' Lundy thought coldly.
Yet, he also knew how jealous he was of Ricky.
No one could keep calm in the face of an incredible demi-spiritual emperor. And most of them tried to hide their feelings of jealousy, respect, fear, and even submission.
As an ace genius, Lundy was so jealous that he wanted to kill Ricky right then and there.
He hated that he had to share his ace genius's limelight with an incredible demi-spiritual emperor like Ricky.
"Let's decide the winner by the next move!" Lionel roared. Then, he directed all his strength, including his blood power into the seven heads.
"Agreed!" Ricky nodded strongly, his eyes burning with fiery determination.
As his eyes lit up, he burst out the Life and Death Mutant and the Massacring Mutant directly.
Lionel was strong enough to make him show some real skills.
"Look! It's the double mutants!" All the people stared in shock at the two mutants, which were twisting and dancing together in front of them.
"Gosh! Have you ever seen double mutants before?"
At once, doubts and exclaims like that echoed one after another.
Lionel's face grew darker, as his opponent was the one who owned the double mutants. He had thought that the battle with Ricky would be fun, but now, he found that it was not as easy and entertaining as he had initially thought. Things had spiraled out of his control.
However, he could not give up. Since their auras had reached their peak state, victory and defeat were only an arm's width away.
Thus, Lionel emptied his mind of all the fear, anxiety, and doubts he was feeling at that moment. He gathered his most potent power too. Even though Ricky's double mutants were terrifying, he decided that he would give this attack his all.
After all, it wouldn't be the end of the world if Ricky defeated him. It would be worse if he backed off because he was intimidated by the enemy.
Perhaps, a miracle could occur. And if Lionel defeated an opponent with double mutants, it could make him more famous.
"Ear-splitting Lion Roaring!"
With Lionel's strongest power, his seven golden heads roared unto the sky, and the sound waves they created swept through the whole blood-red battle ring. The sound waves seemed capable of breaking the entire Blessing Blood Tower into pieces.
At this point, Ricky was gritting his teeth in pain. He felt like his eardrum was about to explode!
