"I sensed that. I think the two sneaky guys will show up soon," Ricky said seriously.
He was right. The moment he finished speaking, a round of applause rang out. Then, two middle-aged men wearing black walked out from the distant forest.
"Master Russell, no wonder you're the chief of the palace. It didn't even matter that the Devil Leopard reached his most powerful status when it went berserk. You were still able to kill it with one move!" one of the men said. His eyes were completely filled with greed as he looked at Ricky and the Devil Leopard's corpse.
"By looking at your clothes, I can tell that you are from the Nether Palace. Am I right?" Ricky said, toning down the power around him. By then, he had already figured out that they were planning to rob the cultivation resources from him.
The warriors had been in the ancient battlefield for hours, and many of them had found that they were unable to dispel or refine the evil spirit they had absorbed.
So if they wanted to stay here longer, they must have a large number of cultivation resources. And the only thing they could do that was rob the resources from the other warriors there.
Ricky saw that the robes of the two men were embroidered with the word 'Nether', and so he knew that they must be members of the Nether Palace.
"Master Russell, our chief has told us a lot about you. He said you were the most talented person to ever exist in the Chaotic Region. We're honored to see you. Would you like to compete with us so that we can learn from each other?" They approached Ricky further and sandwiched him in the middle. From the vital energy fluctuation around them, Ricky could tell that they had reached the eighth grade of Bone Reinforcement.
'These two guys are really shameless!' Ricky thought.
"Ricky, let me deal with these two guys. Both of them are warriors at the eighth grade of Bone Reinforcement, so you are no match for them right now," Soar said.
But Ricky shook his head slightly.
"Looks like those guys will be crushed into pieces," Soar said with a sympathetic tone. He had figured out what Ricky was about to do next, and he knew that it was not going to end well for the two warriors.
"The two of you are at the eighth grade of Bone Reinforcement, and I have only just reached the fourth grade of the same realm. Don't you think it would be unfair for us to compete?" Ricky said as he feigned feeling a little panicked. He began to move backward slowly.
"Ha-ha! You're being too modest. If you weren't capable, you would not have become the chief of a place in the Chaotic Region. We have witnessed how powerful you are when you killed the Devil Leopard who was in berserk just now," the middle-aged man said with a sly smile.
The two men looked at each other and increased their speed at once. They rushed towards Ricky and attacked his critical parts with their feet and fists. They wanted to kill Ricky as soon as they possibly could before he even had the chance to do something unexpected to them.
"Master Russell, be careful," the two men reminded Ricky when they started attacking him.
"Are you serious?" Ricky said, seemed to lack confidence. But before they could notice, he had already transferred his energy to the Iron Destroyer.
Soon, two water blades appeared around the Iron Destroyer. They were derived from the innate power that Doris had poured into the saber.
Ricky was well aware that Doris had left more than a hundred strands of innate power in the Iron Destroyer. By his estimate, there was enough of it for him to keep using until after breaking through to the innate spiritual king realm.
Ricky was curious to know how powerful the innate power was, so he decided to test it out with these two guys.
