Born Almighty Warrior novel Chapter 1407

Ricky walked forward without stopping for half of a day. The sky was clear and the sun was beating down on him, affecting his mood. He frowned and muttered profanities as he trudged along.

Eventually, he reached a river that was very wide and deep. Above its churning water was a bridge made up of a single plank. Only one person could pass over it at a time. Ricky spotted an old man on the bridge.

He was very thin and frail-looking, dressed in shabby, filthy clothing.

If people looked at him, they would be filled with annoyance. For no reason at all, all people wanted to kill him the moment they laid their eyes on him.

Currently, the old man was lying on the single plank bridge.

'Why is this old man irking me so much?' Ricky thought to himself.

At that moment, he wanted nothing more than to sneak up on the old man and beat him up.

But he shook his head and said politely, "Excuse me, sir. I would like to cross this bridge. Will you please move out of the way? I can't get past you."

"Fuck off! Can't you see that I'm basking in the sun?" the old man snapped.

Then, he jumped to his feet and stormed towards Ricky. Peeling off his dirty, ripped shoes, he smashed them against Ricky's face. Then, he started punching and kicking Ricky without any sign of stopping.

Ricky was already filled with anger because of the two annoying incidents he encountered moments ago. Now that an old man was beating him up for no reason, killing intent rose in him.

"Fuck off!" Ricky roared, pushing the old man away.

But the old man didn't give up. He cursed louder and punched and kicked Ricky harder.

Feeling rage flare up in him, Ricky gritted his teeth. The thought of him killing the robbers passed through his mind and he smiled. Retracting his fist, he punched the old man and the latter died on the spot.

Immediately, everything returned to its original condition. Ricky woke up from his cultivation and opened his eyes.

'Were the old lady, the people in the house, and the old man the three character tests? Ricky wondered.

His identity card of the disciple of the Misty South Palace stirred, resonating with the water in the Demon Eliminating Pool. He had passed the character tests, and now, the Demon Eliminating Pool was going to baptize his identity card.

Ricky received a piece of information from his identity card once it was baptized by the water of the Demon Eliminating Pool.

He examined it. It was the points he had collected after he had passed the tests.

He had successfully passed all the three strength tests.

As for the three character tests, he had passed the first test, but he hadn't passed the third one. Luckily, he had managed to squeeze by during the second test, passing by earning three points.

As he continued to examine the information, he learned that the three character tests were meant to test how one treated the weak.

It reflected the responsibility of the strong towards the weak.

'But what is the responsibility of the strong to the weak?' Ricky frowned.

His mind traveled back to the second and third tests to see where he had gone wrong.

The information on his identity card told him that the best way to pass the second test was to save the people without hesitation and to kill the robbers.

If he had not killed the robbers, they would have killed more people. That should be the reason why Ricky should kill them.

But the truth was that, he had killed them because he was angry.

And three of the fifteen people in the house had died because of his hesitation.

That was why he had passed the test with only three points.
