Born Almighty Warrior

Chapter 1422 The Casting Competition

"Well, I'm honored to compete with the number one casting genius in the Misty South," Ricky said with

a challenging smile. His tone was calm, but he knew that it was not wise to keep his strength hidden

any longer.

"I'm looking forward to witnessing your casting skills," Kamari said in a serious tone.

"Wow! This competition is getting really exciting!" The warriors below whispered amongst each other

when they heard the conversation between the two.

"Ricky might replace Kamari and become the number one casting genius during the course of this

casting competition," one of the warriors said in an enthusiastic whisper.

All the warriors who participated in the competition secretly hoped that there would be at least one

genius who could openly challenge the casting status of the Helian Clan in the Misty South.

"Kamari, you may go ahead and cast your weapon. The competition will last a whole day. I wish to

comprehend something while I'm still on the Casting Ladder," Ricky said with a smile.

He then sat down with his legs crossed and condensed his runic power to resist the three forces on the

Casting Ladder.

The pressure on the 450th stair was indeed testing Ricky's limits. He was barely hanging on. However,

only under this limit could he comprehend more and enter the Sage Level in a short time.

Kamari was stunned by Ricky's actions at first, and then he quickly turned angry.

They were in the middle of a fierce competition, and Ricky was taking his time to comprehend and

cultivate leisurely. Kamari felt like his opponent was underestimating his prowess.

'Humph! How dare he! Very well. I will make sure to completely crush you!'

Kamari thought to himself coldly as he sat down cross-legged as well.

He decided to wait until Ricky finished comprehending.

Kamari was a proud man. He would start casting at the same time as Ricky, and planned to defeat him

fair and square.

As they watched the scene in front of them, the other warriors looked at each other in question.

The other disciples reacted quickly and began to cast without wasting another second. They were not

as powerful as the two geniuses, and in a controlled environment like the Casting Ladder, they had to

seize every minute, every second in order to gain an upper hand.

In a day's time, under normal circumstances, they could cast a demi-spiritual sacred weapon without

much effort. But under the pressure of the three forces the Casting Ladder was giving off, they were not

sure if their state of mind would prevail till the end.

'The three forces on the 450th stair are incredibly powerful, ' Ricky thought to himself.

With his current cultivation base, he could have entered the state of cultivation in seclusion in the blink

of an eye.

However, on the Casting Ladder, things wouldn't go so smoothly.

Ricky had no choice but to burst out the bright ancestral spirit to assist him.

If he had more time on the Casting Ladder, he would not use the bright ancestral spirit. Unfortunately,

he only had less than a day.

With the power of the bright ancestral spirit, Ricky quickly concentrated himself and began to

comprehend and cultivate with his whole heart.

"Dragon Intent Grass, wake me up ten hours before the due time," he ordered and began to cultivate.

The runes quickly formed a cocoon, wrapping Ricky in it.

'What kind of trick is this? How did he enter the state of seclusion in an instant? This is surely some

sort of underhanded method, ' Kamari thought to himself disdainfully.

He didn't think that Ricky could enter the state of cultivation and comprehension so quickly.

Even now, it was impossible for Kamari to enter the state of cultivation in an instant on the Casting

Ladder.

As time passed, the other participants entered their casting stages as they began to resist the pressure

of the three forces.

However, most of the onlookers' attention was still on the geniuses above the 400th stair.

Time passed quickly, and there were only mere ten hours left until the given time.

Tommy, Veronica and the others had already completed the casting.

Rumor around was that it would be impossible for those leftover disciples to finish casting in the next

ten hours.

Almost all eyes were focused on Ricky and Kamari.

"What's wrong with Ricky? How much longer is he going to be in cultivation?" A few warriors who were

in favor of Ricky started to become anxious.

"Does he forget what he is actually supposed to do here?"

"If he doesn't cast a weapon now, it will be useless even if he gets to the 999th stair of the Casting

Ladder!"

"What is wrong with that guy? Is he seriously going to remain in cultivation longer than this?" At this

point, even Kolton was beginning to question Ricky's actions.

"Humph! It's wishful thinking if he is still hoping to comprehend something on the Casting Ladder in a

day's time," Elder Graysen commented with a smirk.

Regardless of the restless onlookers, Kamari was in no hurry. Even on the 450th stair, he could still

cast the most perfect weapon at the Demi-sage Level in four hours.

Soon after, Ricky woke from his secluded cultivation.

"Wow. I must say, the Casting Ladder is amazing! I have definitely gained something valuable today,

and I have attained some understanding about the casting road at the Sage Level," Ricky said to the

Dragon Intent Grass through telepathy.

He felt refreshed, no longer suppressed by the three forces.

"If I had more time on the Casting Ladder, I could have become a casting master at the Sage Level in a

month."

"Well, it can't be helped. Forget about it. The competition will end in ten hours," the Dragon Intent

Grass reminded him casually.

"Don't worry. I can cast a weapon at the Demi-sage Level with ease now," Ricky said with a confident

smile.

He then turned to Kamari who slowly stood up.

"Ricky is finally awake! The two geniuses are going to compete now!" one of the warriors said loudly,

and cheers resounded around them. "The competition is about to get interesting."

"It seems that you want a fair fight. I am sorry to have kept you waiting." Ricky said and apologized with

a smile.

"It doesn't matter. Ten-hour is more than enough time for me," Kamari replied, returning the smile.

"I'm sure it is." Ricky nodded.

Crack! Crack! Crack! As the two geniuses stared down at each other, the air around them crackled and

thunderous booms reverberated, piercing through the space.

Boom! Boom! At that moment, their runic powers intertwined fiercely.

"Shall we begin?" Kamari asked, and without awaiting a response, he immediately entered the smelting

stage.

Ricky followed suit as well, quickly entering the state of smelting.

However, he did not use the Chaotic Fire Zone to be his furnace since it was his trump card.

Moreover, Ricky was confident that he could defeat all the casting geniuses at the Demi-sage Level

without using the Chaotic Fire Zone.

As the smelting process continued, their runic powers constantly collided with each other, aiming to

disturb and distract the other.

So did their spiritual powers.

Ricky had to admit that the creatures of the Short Human tribe far surpassed other creatures in terms

of spiritual power. After several rounds of confrontation with Kamari's spiritual power, he was at a

disadvantage. This is from NôvelDrama.Org.

'I have to use the bright ancestral spirit, ' Ricky thought to himself.

He couldn't make up for his spiritual power, but he could always depend on the bright ancestral spirit.

With the help of the bright ancestral spirit and the seven runic powers, Ricky formed an absolute

defense around his soul.

'What is happening? He is able to resist the disturbance from my spiritual power. What kind of power is

he using?' Kamari was surprised. 'Spiritual power is closely related to runic power. His spiritual power is

not that strong, yet how can his runic power compete with mine? Is it because he cultivates many types

of runes?'

Unfortunately, Kamari was unaware of Ricky's many incredible spaces.

Due to these spaces, Ricky's runic power didn't need to be activated by his spiritual power.

"Kamari, you should concentrate on your smelting," Ricky said with a smile when he saw the frown on

Kamari's face.
