Chapter 64 The Battle With Edgar (1/2)

The atmosphere of the competition reached a climatic point as the battle between Ricky and Lean came to an end. All of the disciples fixed their eyes on Ricky in anticipation, wondering if he would proceed to the final battle.

”Next, who else wants to challenge the top three outer disciples?” Elder Evan focused his eyes on Ricky expectantly as well and asked again.

”Me!”

A booming voice filled the room while Edgar walked out of the crowd.

”Edgar...Edgar! It's him!”

”Looks like he wants to take up the top three outer disciples' challenge! Is he really that capable?” The warriors exclaimed as they watched Edgar walk out of the crowd.

”Yes! Which position do you want to challenge?” Seeing that it was Edgar, Elder Evan nodded imperceptibly and asked him.

Edgar's performance in the previous battles was exceptional. Every fight was worth watching as Edgar gave it his all. It was no wonder that he had caught the attention of Zenith and the Elders...

”Elder Evan, I'm not exactly very capable, but I would like to try... I choose to battle Ricky! ” Edgar's words echoed throughout the battlefield while he stared at Ricky with a killing intent.

”Edgar has the guts, really! You know what they say: no guts, no glory! I thought he would challenge Agnes at first. I didn't expect that he would choose Ricky instead!” Hearing Edgar's declaration and persistence, many disciples resumed their animated discussions as they expected another great battle from Edgar.

”No matter the outcome, it's going to be yet another fierce battle! Whoa, I never thought that this year's Outer Competition would be this fascinating! ”

...

'Edgar does not belong to any faction. Looks like he doesn't have any other affiliated intentions other than just having a simple fight with me.' Ricky mumbled to himself as he saw Edgar's gaze towards him. His eyes locked in to his opponent as if he was sizing him up from head to toe.

Ricky's intention to fight had remarkably risen as well. He had to admit that he was getting excited out of this whole ordeal. He also wanted to know the exact limit of this ”Edgar” warrior who emerged out of nowhere had the gall to fight a senior like him.

”Ricky, I will give you two hours to prepare yourself before taking up Edgar's challenge!” Elder Evan couldn't help but be extremely pleased with how the events were turning. He quickly acknowledged Edgar's request. Two dark horses of this year's Outer Competition would battle out against each other? This was definitely one for the books. He was just as enthusiastic as everyone else as he awaited for this competition to happen. These warriors were just full of surprises.

”Thank you so much for your kindness, Elder Evan, but I don't really need it.” Ricky said confidently as he took a step forward as if he already knew that he would win the battle.
