"What?"

The people around were stunned because they too saw Richard suddenly enter the Tier 11 portal.

"Does that kid want to die?"

"He thinks this is a playground."

"Hurry, hurry, show the battlefield of that portal."

One of the large screens inside the place then displayed a battle area—not a forest, but a desert that looked extremely barren.

The small figure of Richard then appeared there.

Richard was a little surprised when he found how vast this desert was, and it seemed to be only one layer of space.

Compared to this Hidden World, the Dragon Hall was very small.

Of course, their functions were clearly different.

The Dragon Hall was designed to protect as well as a place for training, while the Monster World could actually be destroyed by powerful figures like his ancestors if they acted.

Not far ahead, Richard saw a snake fifteen meters long, lying down.

It had three heads, making it look terrifying, while its body was blackish yellow.

Seeing the appearance of someone, the snake's neck instantly stood upright, like a king cobra.

Shock was clearly seen in its eyes because the one who appeared was merely a boy.

Its eyes even tried to observe more carefully just to make sure what it saw was real. And it really was.

Whoosh!

Suddenly it lunged at Richard, tearing through the desert it crossed.

It was clear that it didn't care if its opponent was only a child.

"Let's try it this way first!"

Richard was in no hurry to use the hidden power of his Black Heart.

He would fight without it first, to see if he could match a Tier 11 Beast.

Whoosh!

Richard also charged forward, and his right fist instantly transformed, as if it evolved—becoming slightly larger and sprouting scales and claws.

Buzz!

Several lightning bolts appeared on that fist.

"This kid is crazy."

The spectators were even more shocked seeing Richard charge forward instead of running away.

"No, he has power."

They quickly realized Richard was not ordinary.

At that moment, one of the snake's heads suddenly shot forward, its neck stretching out.

Richard thought this was not a venomous snake, but it might possess an extremely tough physique combined with agile movements.

BANG!

Richard sent his dragon fist forward.

Rumble!

The space trembled from that punch, while the air instantly blasted forward.

That alone could probably shred other Magi in the Aether Will Realm.

However, the snake's head, larger than Richard's body itself, only showed a brief look of surprise before continuing forward.

It realized this boy was strong, but it was also strong.

BANG!

Richard's fist finally struck the snake's head.

At the same time, two shadow fists suddenly appeared—too real to be called mere shadows.

They were massive, the size of the snake's head itself.

BANG! BANG!

They struck the snake's head from both sides, making each of its eyes bulge in shock at the sudden twin assaults.

Its huge head was smashed hard into the ground, causing the earth to crack in a spiderweb pattern.

"It worked!" Richard was delighted.

At least this showed his advantage.

But as he looked ahead, another of the snake's heads had already appeared before him, mouth wide open, ready to swallow him.

"You can't!" Richard shouted.

He unleashed an extremely dense wave forward, just about the size of the snake's head. But its density made the pushing force terrifying.

BANG!

The snake's head was instantly blasted backward, lifted high into the air.

At the same time, a golden sword appeared in Richard's hand.

Without hesitation, Richard charged toward the snake's torso near its chest.

The sword was enveloped in blazing fire, enhancing its sharpness.

And Richard slashed it hard toward the snake's body, producing a cut mixed with fire and lightning that crackled explosively.

Swish!

That slash instantly split the snake's body open, but Richard could not be happy because the slash only split it halfway—it did not cut the snake entirely in two.

Moreover, the wound began healing in a process that was clearly visible, as if the snake did not consider it a fatal injury.

'The energy isn't enough,' Richard thought.

His Aether Accumulation was only slightly over eleven thousand.

Compared to a Tier 11 Beast, this was far too low.

However, the quality of his power made the fight fairly even.

With the same amount of energy, Richard could have killed the snake in one strike.

Even so, Richard still felt no need to use the hidden power of his Black Heart.

After all, he still had something else to rely on—something that could not be grasped by human eyes: Mind Attack.

"This boy is actually that strong," the spectators murmured.

"Not inferior to a Tier 11 Primordial Beast, he can already be considered Tier 11. Magi in the Aether Will Realm would not be able to fight him."

"How did he train? Is he really still a boy, or does he simply have a bodily condition that stopped his growth?"

"Who knows, but look at that lightning and fire—so dazzling. I've never seen anything like it. His affinity with them must be extremely high."

"Wait, what's happening—why is the snake slowing down?"

At this moment, the snake indeed looked slower—or more precisely, it seemed to struggle controlling its massive body. Even its aura looked chaotic and weakened.

Richard had used Mind Attack on it, and the effect was extraordinary.

He chose to end the fight quickly, because if the battle dragged on, he would likely tire first.

Whoosh!

With his sword, he slashed again at the snake's body at the area already split but starting to heal.

Of course, its regeneration slowed since the Mind Attack struck.

This time, Richard's sword strike was not only imbued with lightning and fire. It was fused with darkness, making its aura even more terrifying.

Richard did not hold back, unleashing a vast amount of Aether.

With its weakened defenses and the strike aimed at its wound, the snake was instantly cleaved in two—and the slash seemed to lose no strength, splitting the air behind the snake until a long rift appeared, resembling a tear in space.

That sight mesmerized the spectators outside, making them swallow their saliva hard.

Although in this city it was not rare for Magi in the Aether Will Realm to defeat Tier 11 Primordial Beasts, this one was done by a boy far too young.

People might doubt his true age, but in fact, it was still difficult for them to think he wasn't a kid.
