The legendary warrior

Chapter 46 One Punch

Feeling a boost of arrogance, Ricky decided to move forward rather than assume the position of defense, and shot away at Lean's manic fist.

Lean ranked as the second of the top ten outer disciples, which meant that he was almost the most outstanding one. Once he threw a punch, the whole Cultivation Method Hall would tremble, as if resonating with his punch.

Lean's punch with spiritual energy surrounding it was full of manic momentum. Unconsciously, a fierce black bear appeared behind Lean, snarling with a deep rumble.

This manic momentum involuntarily thrilled all the disciples around him.

"What Lean practices is the physical cultivation method that belongs to Yellow Level, called as Great Strength of Reckless Bear. This cultivation method draws from the blood essence of a fierce bear as the catalyst to drive the boost of the power," some disciples exclaimed.

"Yes, yes! I've heard that Lean's physical strength has never been inferior to a common warrior at the first grade of Blood Purification!"

Regardless of Lean's repute and personality, all the disciples felt admiration for him when they felt this famous punch.

On the contrary, Ricky's punch, not only was strange but also plain and empty. It did not make an equivalent impression on the power.

"Although Ricky can defeat Dustin, I think it's a bit embarrassing for him to take on Lean right now," some disciples stated.

"Go to hell!"

Lean roared fiercely, seeing Ricky unexpectedly begin to attack instead of going into defense, all the while throwing a pathetic punch. He seemed to understand that Ricky would end up with a severely broken arm, and Lean's punches grew rapidly stronger.

"Boom!"

At the next moment, their fists collided, the two opposing momentums making the whole Cultivation Method Hall reverberate with a thunderous sound. All the disciples heard Ricky's robe whistling under Lean's punch as if it was going to break into shreds at any time.

All of a sudden, Ricky's fist turned blood red with his veins bursting out from under his skin. Undoubtedly, this was because of Lean's manic strength.

The manic momentum erupting from Lean enveloped Ricky entirely. It was obvious that Lean had no intentions of giving Ricky a chance.

This commotion caught the attention of an old guardian at the door of the Cultivation Method Hall...

"Hmph! You little jerk, you think too highly of yourself! No one dares to even touch my fist among the outer disciples. I will shatter all the meridians in your pathetic body!" Lean sneered, with a ferocious smile spreading across his face.

In a snap, Lean's manic power had poured into Ricky's body through his fist, sinking into his meridians.

"Ha!" Feeling the influx of Lean's manic power spreading throughout his system, Ricky understood what Lean was thinking. But Ricky just grinned. He had a trick up his sleeve.

"You are going to be utterly destroyed right away. How could you even muster the courage to laugh at me?" With narrowed cruel eyes, Lean further amped up his fist's power. He was getting ready to destroy all of Ricky's meridians.

But suddenly, Lean felt something go wrong.

He was perplexed. All the manic power that had rapidly infused into Ricky's body unexpectedly vanished, and the power in his own fist seemed to be quickly draining away!

"This... How is this possible?!" Lean growled, staring at Ricky with angry eyes.

The growl caught the attention of disciples, who were just beginning to realize that something unexpected was happening.

They found out that Lean's fist which had been previously surrounded by manic power now had no power at all, as if it had vanished into thin air.

"How is this even possible?" All disciples' jaws dropped. They were just as shocked at the sight of this scene.

As for the old guardian, his cloudy eyes were beaming brightly as they stared at the blood-red rune on Ricky's right fist.

"This is such a peculiar cultivation method! It appears that it can dissolve the enemy's power!" the old guardian said to himself.

Even the old man did not notice that Lean's power had actually been swallowed up by Ricky's Devouring Skill.

'Sure enough, this Devouring Skill has not failed me!' Ricky thought excitedly to himself.

As expected, the blood-red rune, the visible form of Devouring Skill, had fulfilled its potential. In what seemed like an impossible maneuver, it had directly devoured Lean's exceedingly manic power.

"Nothing is impossible!"

Ricky said coldly, looking at Lean's face of extreme disbelief.

And then Ricky's fist became charged with extreme strength in a flash of red, and smashed into Lean, knocking him backwards with powerful force. After leaving a line of heavy skid marks on the ground, Lean emptied the strength which had been dealt by Ricky and stabilized his body. This belongs to NôvelDrama.Org: ©.

At the same time, Lean's chest was heaving rapidly, as if a spurt of blood could begin gushing out of his mouth.

"This.... Ricky actually defeated Lean. Could it be... Does this mean that Ricky already has the strength of the second of the top outer disciples, and can even challenge the highest ranking one?"

At the sight the scene that had unfolded before their eyes, the disciples sat, stupefied.

At the scene of the battle, they all seemed to understand that Ricky might be a miraculous figure among them outer disciples, and he surely would keep going all the way to the top...

"The second highest of the top ten outer disciples doesn't seem to have anything special!" Ricky said with disdain, taking back his fists.

"So for now, I have no intentions of pulling out my physical cultivation method to use on you, because that will disgrace my power completely."

"Ugh! You are asking to be killed!"

Upon being insulted, Lean lost his temper and fell into a frenzy. He gathered what little strength remained in him to attack Ricky.

Seeing that Lean still want to fight, Ricky's eye adopted a solemn gleam.

It was not because he was afraid of Lean. Ricky knew and respected the laws of their community. It was really inappropriate to fight in this manner in the Cultivation Method Hall. After all, hurting fellow disciples was forbidden in the Snow Sect.

For Ricky, it was not worth being punished for it and missing the Outer Competition.

"In the Cultivation Method Hall, you should not be displaying this blatant insolence!"

Suddenly, the old voice of the guardian arose with its husky stateliness. Everyone froze.

The disciples turned to stare at the old guardian, whose sudden intervention surprised them.

They soon realized that the old guardian was likely to be a hidden powerful man, otherwise the Snow Sect wouldn't have entrusted him with such an important place as the Cultivation Method Hall.

Lean calmed down. He realized that insolence could be very dangerous for him in this place.

Seeing Lean restrain himself, the elderly man took back the stateliness and restored the whole Cultivation Method Hall as it had been before. Then, he leaned back lazily in his chair again, as if nothing had happened.

"I challenge you, Ricky. Will you accept it?" Lean growled at Ricky.

"Hmph, challenge? Coward. If you think you even stand a chance against me, go to the Death Arena with me! Let's fight a battle to the death!" Ricky spat with disdain at Lean's challenge.

"You..." Lean stammered at Ricky's response.

Without the previous collision with Ricky, he would have accepted the battle to the death without hesitation, but that one tremendous punch from Ricky had indeed frightened him a lot.

"Coward! Loser!" Disdain clearly written on his face, Ricky walked out of the Cultivation Method Hall, leaving behind Lean who was fuming with rage and embarrassment.

Lean watched Ricky to the door, bow deeply to the old guardian, and exit nonchalantly.
