Chapter 125 The Challenging Casting Appraisal

Perhaps Elder Alexander was right, and Ricky's set of casting skills surpassed that of a casting master of inferior Mortal Level. It was the remarkable Chaos Manual and his powerful reclaimed spiritual meridian that allowed him to make outstanding progress.

Ricky had the ability to gradually improve his casting skill, merely because he continued cultivating and comprehending the Chaos Manual.

That was also the reason why Ricky believed that his regained spiritual meridian formed part of a kind of inheritance.

However, even with his incredible casting skill, Ricky hadn't tried forging any weapon of intermediate Mortal Level.

That was the reason why Ricky said honestly, "Elder Alex, I admit that you're right. My casting skill level has already exceeded the inferior Mortal Level. However, I haven't had a chance to cast a weapon at the intermediate stage of Mortal Level."

"Well, I think before coming here, you should have considered and prepared yourself for attending the intermediate Mortal Level Casting Appraisal, as the appraisal is not that easy this time around," Elder Alexander explained.

"Elder Alex, could you please make it more clear to me?" Ricky asked curiously.

"You are acquainted with Andrew, right? Isn't he the mastermind who arranged the plot to play tricks on you this time? I also owe you an apology. Even though I'm the first Elder of the Casting Guild, I'm not capable of suppressing his parents whatsoever. Besides, my strength can almost be aligned with theirs." Copyright Nôv/el/Dra/ma.Org.

"Elder Alex, I understand!" Ricky nodded.

"Although Andrew looks... well, you know; his casting skills are extraordinary and better than that of any other warrior in the Casting Guild. As for my disciple, Kayla, her skill is far less powerful than his!" Elder Alexander added, "Recently, the Casting Guild's chief received a Magic Spirit Stone! Our chief has decided to award this Magic Spirit Stone to the number one disciple with superb casting skills, accompanied with the purpose to encourage the disciples of the Casting Guild.

So, the intermediate Mortal Level Casting Appraisal is actually a competition. The one who shows the most extraordinary casting skill during the appraisal can win the Magic Spirit Stone."

"Oh, I see. By the way, what's the function of the Magic Spirit Stone?" Ricky asked.

"The Magic Spirit Stone is a kind of Treasure from Heaven and Earth. It can enhance the stage of a Blood Purification warrior's spiritual meridian. At the same time, it can also improve the warrior's comprehension and the talent for casting," Elder Alexander remarked.

"It's so magical!" Upon learning how remarkable the Magic Spirit Stone was, Ricky shouted with excitement. He was eager to attain such a wonderful treasure.

"Are you interested in it?" Elder Alexander uttered while glaring at Ricky.

"Elder Alex, it's truly fantastic, and that is why I'm sure that all warriors of Blood Purification are interested in it!" Ricky responded gently.

"Yes. However, the mere idea that it may be owned by either Andrew or somebody else in the future, is a pity," Elder Alexander stated, sighing heavily. It was obvious that he didn't want this to happen.

"Ricky, if you were born a mere six month earlier, you would likely have had enough strength and power to retrieve the Magic Spirit Stone."

"Elder Alex, would you be so kind as to teach me the casting experience or skills at the intermediate Mortal Level during the next few days?" Ricky asked, with a determined and serious look in his eyes.

"That depends... Would you like to participate in the Casting Appraisal? It takes place in only three days," Elder Alexander responded to Ricky with a look of surprise.

"Yes, I would like to try. I'm ready to experience this exciting and challenging endeavor!" Ricky laughed.

"Ha-ha. Well, okay then. If you're that determined, I would like to see your understanding of the casting skill!" Elder Alexander said with a smile, hearing that Ricky wanted to attempt it at the challenge.

He didn't believe it, nor that Ricky was eager to attain the Magic Spirit Stone!

He also agreed to share his casting skill with Ricky, as he was eager to train a genius like Ricky to become a great casting master. He was particularly interested in Ricky's incredible Pounding Skill.

After getting Elder Alexander to agree to teach him, Ricky returned to his place and told Elder Samuel that he was set to learn the casting skill from Elder Alexander during the following three days.

Elder Samuel immediately commanded him to work hard. He wanted him to try his best to attain more knowledge from Elder Alexander and warned him not to displease Elder Alexander.

After saying goodbye to Elder Samuel, Ricky returned to Elder Alexander's yard again.

The moment Ricky entered the yard, Kayla walked up to him and started scolding him. As she spoke, she started interrogating him, as she couldn't comprehend how he managed to persuade Elder Alexander to agree to let him live there.

With an effortless smile on his face, Ricky didn't respond. In fact, he knew that Kayla disliked him, so it was impossible for her to listen to him, regardless of whether he reasoned with her.

After meeting, Elder Alexander began to tell Ricky about casting experience and what he had to know.

During this period, Ricky shared his insights and experience about the Devouring Skill.

Acting like Elder Samuel, Elder Alexander was completely lost in thought upon hearing Ricky mention the Devouring Skill. He was shocked and caught a glimpse of the light. His eyes lit up immediately.

"Ricky, you attained your comprehension and experience from your master, right?" Elder Alexander asked excitedly.

"Yes, that's correct. Elder Alex, do you mind keeping it to yourself and refrain from telling others about this matter?" Ricky uttered.

"Sure!" Elder Alexander nodded.

Having no idea that Ricky learnt everything from the mysterious magical Devouring Skill, Elder Alexander was certain that Ricky's master was a casting master who had attained the Sage Level. He knew that it had to be the case. Otherwise Ricky wouldn't be able to acquire such profound, nor abstruse insight and comprehension of casting.

During their discussion, Elder Alexander not only passed on the casting skill to Ricky, but he also spent more time listening to Ricky's comprehension and insights from the Devouring Skill, which was quite astounding to him.

Given that Ricky was already incredible with his particular set of skills, Elder Alexander shared all of his experience with Ricky without reservation.

Additionally, Elder Alexander also personally taught Ricky how to forge weapons with an improved method.

When Kayla saw Elder Alexander treat Ricky relatively well, a sense of jealousy brew in her heart. She was very displeased, for Elder Alexander had never been quite as nice to her.

However, as Ricky commenced casting, Kayla gradually found that Ricky's casting skill was unparalleled. She also understood why her master would be impressed with Ricky.

For some apparent reason, her attitude towards Ricky started to change.

After all, Ricky was an incredibly gifted and intelligent man, which was exactly what drew Kayla. She was attracted by his ability and high level of intellect.

'Will Master Alex make Ricky his disciple?' Kayla thought about it for a second, feeling a sharp pang of jealousy in her gut.

Ricky spent a total of three days learning and comprehending the new casting skill.

The past few days presented the news about the competition to strive for the Magic Spirit Stone, which had spread throughout the entire Casting Guild. The regular Casting Appraisal additionally turned out to be an intense competition.

The participating disciples in the Casting Appraisal had confidence that shone greatly, which made the Casting Guild present an extremely positive and passionate atmosphere.

Ricky and Kayla arrived at the destination where the Casting Appraisal was going to take place.

They immediately excited all of the participants and drew all of the attention away from the other competitors.

Everybody had their eyes fixed on them because they were surprised to see Ricky and Kayla together.

"Who's that guy? Why is he accompanying Kayla?" To their surprise, however, gossip of Ricky and Kayla was drowning among the competition's intense atmosphere.

"Don't you know who he is? It's Ricky. You know, the man who attended the inferior Mortal Level Casting Appraisal. I've heard that he is in the good graces of Elder Alexander, who thinks very highly of him!"

"What? That's Ricky?!"

"Kayla, could you introduce this junior to me?"
