In a stroke of bad luck, Jaden and Jaxon had miscalculated the poisonous effect of the Heavenly Aroma Pill on Ricky. Even with the help of their wild imagination, they couldn't figure out that Ricky had four zones. These were the key to helping him eliminate any kind of hidden poisons. This made Ricky take the pill without any hesitation because he was sure that he wouldn't be harmed.
Even with the pill already in Ricky's system, he wouldn't be harmed by the poison. His body being a fusion of the four zones gave him immunity from any effects the poison might have brought. On the other hand, he was certain that Jaden and Jaxon didn't give him the pill with an extremely potent poison. If he were killed by the pill on the spot, Jaden and Jaxon would've faced more serious trouble.
'Ricky, you are really playing with fire! After taking this Heavenly Aroma Pill, your career in weapon casting and martial arts will come to an end!' Jaden and Jaxon snorted coldly and spontaneously in their mind as they saw Ricky did not hesitate to take the pill. They now believed that once Ricky started to refine weapons, he would suffer from chronic intoxication. By then, they would find a way to defeat him completely.
Confusion and disbelief filled the air as all the other warriors were stunned at what they saw. The atmosphere was immediately filled with tension when heated debates started to happen. Comment after comment, stand against stand. Every warrior just joined in on the intense discussions about what was happening in front of their naked eyes.
"What?! How could Ricky take the pill so easily? Did he not think of the possibility of it being toxic? Or did he believe that in broad daylight Jaxon and Jaden would not dare to add any poison into the pill?"
"Or was he so greedy for the Heavenly Aroma Pill that he forgot to think of the repercussions?"
As soon as the commotion subsided, almost all the disciples realized that they seemed to have placed Ricky on a pedestal. They began to think that even an ace genius like Ricky could make a mistake as well.
Of course, there were still those who held on to the idea of Ricky possessing the trump card to solve the crisis.
Meanwhile, the other senior leaders of the Oriental College were also watching the scene up high in the air.
Cameron, head of the Weapon Casting Department, was also a little taken aback by Ricky's behavior. Yet, he soon regained his composure and asked the Heavenly Ape Demi-spiritual Emperor lightly, "Hey, old friend, what kind of trump card do you think this little guy has in hand? What compelled him to have great courage to swallow this suspicious Heavenly Aroma Pill?"
"Unfortunately, I also do not have the answer to either of your questions. Let's just wait and see how things will unfold. I bet you will find that the longer you deal with this little brat, the more unfathomable you will feel he is," said the Heavenly Ape Demi-spiritual Emperor mysteriously.
"Yeah, I get what you mean by that. At least now I know he is unfathomable at weapon casting," Cameron said.
"So, I guess that in the past month, you have also learned something from Ricky," the Heavenly Ape Demi-spiritual Emperor said with a smile.
"Oh? How do you know that?" Cameron was a little confused when he sensed the positive tone in what the Heavenly Ape Demi-spiritual Emperor said.
"Although I don't know how to cast weapons, I am still a demi-spiritual emperor. I've comprehended the supreme enlightenment of heaven and earth. I've found out that the runic powers that Ricky burst out just now and the Pounding Skill he used are more brilliant, arcane and profound than yours," said the Heavenly Ape Demi-spiritual Emperor slowly.
"Oh, that explains my doubt. It turns out that he got an amazing master in weapon casting!" Cameron said, and his eyes flickered a hint of envy.
"This may be the fortune that only belongs to an ace genius. You and I will not be able to speculate what kind of luck he has encountered in our whole lifetime," the Heavenly Ape Demi-spiritual Emperor sighed faintly.
"Ha-ha, but if we can successfully cultivate an ace genius, that will be quite an achievement as well," Cameron added at once.
Immediately, the Heavenly Ape Demi-spiritual Emperor and Cameron looked at each other with a smile, and their attention was turned toward Ricky again.
...
At that moment, Jaden and Jaxon had completed the weapon melting process. It could be seen that after they took the Heavenly Aroma Pills, they became more vigorous, meticulous and more importantly, completely immersed in their weapon casting process.
"Ricky, we are going to enter the casting stage. I hope you can complete the melting process, follow us and understand our casting realm as soon as possible!" Jaxon said to Ricky like his life depended on it.
"Jaden and Jaxon, you can rest assured. I will do my best," Ricky reassured them.
