The legendary warrior novel Chapter 101

When Elder Logan came back, Boris's people immediately carried three cages made of cast iron. Elder Logan inspected the cages and then he locked three ferocious beasts into them.

"Boris, what are you up to?" Zenith asked indifferently.

Boris turned to Zenith and stated, "Chief Zenith, I remember that this disciple claimed his strength is no less than that of a summation of one hundred Phil. So according to my estimation, the strength of one hundred Phil who is at the third grade of Blood Purification is nearly the same with a beast at the sixth grade of Blood Purification." He paused for a little while as if in deep thought before he added, "So I found these three beasts at the sixth grade of Blood Purification for this disciple to choose one and compete with.

If he manages to defeat anyone of these beasts at the sixth grade of Blood Purification, it only proves that he deserves your fostering efforts. But if he doesn't, he will have to repay the debt of his killing with his life. It would be a fair deal, don't you think so? Just like how the saying goes, "A life for a life". We all know that this is the rule of the martial world.

So I don't think any one of you will object. You don't object either, do you, Chief Zenith?"

"I cannot agree more!" some disciples exclaimed. As Boris finished his explanation, disciples under the Casting Faction and the Refinement Faction chimed in immediately.

"That's nonsense! Boris, is this your attempt to mess around with the disciples of our Snow Sect?" Zenith accused. Everyone knew that Ricky didn't have the slightest chance to come back alive from a battle with any of the formidable beast.

Although he was quite talented, no one could imagine in their wildest dreams that he could rival with a beast at the sixth grade of Blood Purification.

"Chief Zenith, I'm just abiding by the law impartially," Boris defended.

"Chief Zenith, I really appreciate that you're worried about my safety. But as far as I'm concerned, Dominant Top Elder Boris is right in all aspects. I would like to accept this challenge," Ricky firmly stated. To everyone's surprise, Ricky did not have any objection.

"You..." Zenith and some other Elders were at a loss for words. They were dumbfounded and confused by Ricky's decision.

"That's great! Ricky, your courage is really admirable! In that case, you can choose any one of the beasts you want to fight against," Boris declared as his lips discretely curled into a sinister smile.

"Dominant Top Elder Boris, I only hope that you will honor your promise. If I can prove my value, please follow the verdict of Chief Zenith!" Ricky replied with hint of a threatening edge in his voice.

"Do you really think I would go against my words in the presence of so many disciples?" Boris gave him reassurance in the form of a question.

"No, of course, I don't. In contrast, I actually want to express my gratitude for offering me such a great opportunity to prove myself," Ricky stated as he strode toward the cages.

'Does he really have the strength to fight with a fierce beast at the sixth grade of Blood Purification?' Boris thought to himself as he stared at Ricky's retreating back who was approaching the cages in full confidence.

Suddenly, Boris regretted his decision for no clear reasons. He became unsure if his scheme would turn out the way he wanted to or not.

'There should be no chance at all. This fellow has just reached the fourth grade of Blood Purification. The three beasts that Elder Logan found at my order, besides having good meridians, all possess the highest degree of proficiency of the sixth grade of Blood Purification. They could even compare with the warriors at the seventh grade of Blood Purification, '

Boris continued to ponder as he watched Ricky carefully examine the beasts in their cages.

'A Black-scaled Bull, a Demonic Ape, or a Yellow-winged Eagle, which one on earth do I choose?' Ricky mused, simultaneously scanning the three beasts meticulously.

Inevitably, he could never fail to sense the intimidating force emanating from the three beasts. Their strength was no less than that of a warrior who had just reached the seventh grade of Blood Purification.

Therefore, he must be cautious or else he would end up in the claws of one of these beasts.

"Choose the Demonic Ape. Powerful as it is, it only strives in an environment similar to a jungle. Since it's confined in this cage, its speed and strength might have also been restricted," Zenith's voice rang in his head at that point.

Upon hearing Zenith's advice, Ricky promptly fastened his gaze on the ape.

Given that the Black-scaled Bull was covered by hard black scales all over like an armor, Ricky estimated that it would be difficult for him to even break through its defense. The Yellow-winged eagle looked like an easy one but it had a greater advantage of flight. It could easily swoop down and take him down. The Yellow-winged eagle was locked in a cage of approximately 100 square meters which was spacious enough for its movements, but it was clearly not favorable for Ricky.

He could see then Zenith's point. Relatively, the easiest one to challenge seemed to be the Demonic Ape.

"Ricky, it is time to choose right now. If I give you a hand, Boris will definitely come in the way. So just do everything you need to slay the monster! And remember, to survive is the most imperative thing for you right now!" Zenith exhorted him.
