The Misty South Palace was the strongest power on the Misty South, and it was also the oldest force to exist. Their founder started the group way back at the very beginning of the devil race's invasion, for the Misty South Palace was born to resist the devil race.
Of course, another important reason why the Misty South Palace was the most influential force was that top warriors in every era would appear in the Misty South Palace.
It was no exception in this era. Otis, the most powerful man on the continent, was the current lord of the Misty South Palace.
The Misty South Palace was strong indeed, but their top warriors seldom stayed in this continent, as the devil race had not moved around. Perhaps, the Misty South Palace's only activity here was recruiting talented disciples in the Middle Land and training them.
Any force, especially a strong one, would undoubtedly be offended if they found another force with the same name. If they discovered that Ricky had established a force with the name of the Misty South Palace, it could end disastrously for him.
The Misty South Palace was the mightiest force on the Misty South, so he could just imagine what they would do if another party had the same name as them.
And even if the Misty South Palace didn't show up to teach Ricky a lesson, their allies and friends would definitely come to take action.
If that were the case, how could Ricky not dwell on it?
Fortunately, the Misty South Palace kept a low profile, and they didn't have any idea of the existence of Ricky's force.
Otherwise, Ricky would have made a fool of himself when he first established his force and called it the Misty South Palace.
"Boy, you are incredibly arrogant, but you're lucky that it has not yet blown up on your face. You need to make a Shadowy Replication right now and send it to the Eastern Land via your space. You need to tell your friends to disband that your damn Misty South Palace as soon as possible," the Dragon Intent Grass advised Ricky firmly, looking helpless and utterly exasperated.
"Okay, okay. I'll do that now." Ricky nodded urgently.
He then made a Shadowy Replication, which he immediately sent for the Eastern Land.
However, Ricky was quite disappointed because he didn't want to disband his Misty South Palace. After all, he once wanted it to be the number one force on the continent. But now, it seemed like an impossible dream.
Perhaps, he could put that dream aside for now, and he could get back to it once he had become the most powerful man in the Misty South.
Meanwhile, Tina and Amelia couldn't help laughing when they saw how dejected Ricky looked.
"Now, let's get down to business," the Dragon Intent Grass said, redirecting their focus. "Tina is right. If you want to join any force, the Misty South Palace is the best choice. There are colleges in the three major regions of the Middle Land led by the Misty South Palace, and they accept any talent that can pass their test.
If you take their test, I'm sure you will pass, and then you can join the Misty South Palace. The selection process is quite rigorous, but with your talent, it should not be difficult."
"Yes, you made a good point," Tina chimed in. "Ricky, joining the Misty South Palace will boost your popularity, and it won't even matter that you're still at the bottom of the barrel. Anyone who wants to challenge you will have to think twice, for you will have the Misty South Palace behind you."
She paused for a short moment and then added, "What's more, it will undoubtedly help you in the future when you get to the Phoenix tribe. Honestly, I think the only force that can frighten the Phoenix tribe is the most powerful force on all four continents.
And besides, the Misty South Palace is a place full of talents from various forces. It is precisely what you are looking for!"
"You're right. It seems that I have to join the Misty South Palace," Ricky said, nodding in agreement when he heard Tina's words.
"Remember this, boy. Don't tell anyone that you established a force called the Misty South Palace. Make sure that this information will remain as it should—a secret," the Dragon intent grass sternly reminded him again.
"Don't worry. I'm not stupid. That will be like asking for death," Ricky quickly answered as he curled his lips in a frown.
After half a day, Ricky and the two girls finally spotted the first city in the Middle Land.
The Middle Land was indeed worthy of its reputation. Even though this first city was its outermost city, it still seemed rather vast.
As soon as they saw some people, Ricky immediately approached them to get more information about the region they were currently in. He also probed deeper about the significant events that had happened in the Misty South Palace.
