"Oh my God!" The crowd was shocked as they watched Roxanne fly in the air. Nobody expected Midnight Shadow to kick her. They could hear bones cracking even from afar. "Roxanne!" Jayden screamed and rushed up to her anxiously. He turned her over and was shocked at what he saw. Her face had been disfigured till it was hard to recognize her. It was a frightening sight. Although he had basic medical knowledge, it was limited to treating minor injuries like setting dislocated bones. There was nothing he could do about her injury."Quick! Someone call a doctor!" When he realized the severity of the situation, Jayden started yelling. His words snapped everyone into action. Soon, a severely injured Roxanne was carried away. Jayden's group departed with her in a hurry. Before Jayden left, he glared at Dustin, full of hatred. "That was terrifying. She flew a few feet away. Can the doctors even save her appearance?""She can only blame herself. She lost, so why did she have to b

"Thank you, Ms. Nicholson, but that won't be necessary." Dustin shook his head without taking the name card. "What?" Dahlia raised her eyebrow, surprised. "Are you sure you don't want to think about it?"There were only a few people who would reject her offer. Dustin not only rejected it altogether, he didn't even hesitate."No, thank you. Being an insurance agent is pretty good. I won't adapt to a corporate lifestyle." Dustin declined again. "Hey! Do you know how many people are dying to get into Ms. Nicholson's company? She's giving you a chance, don't be ungrateful!" Elena said arrogantly.As Sir Mosey's goddaughter, even the aristocrats in Oakvale had to show Dahlia respect. How dare an insurance agent decline her offer? He was disrespectful!"Why don't you take the offer instead? I don't need it." Dustin glanced at her coldly."You—!" Elena was about to retort when Dahlia raised her hand to stop her."Forget about it. Since he refused, I won't force him. I'll be off

"Uncle Edgar, these are my friends! What are you doing?" Sheila was shocked and stood before her friends with her arms wide open."Hmph! They're nothing but a bunch of troublemakers! "Just one look and you could tell that they're bad influences! Now, step aside!" Edgar roared."No! They're innocent! You can't hurt them!" Sheila reasoned."Mr. Murray, we didn't do anything. This is a misunderstanding!" Vivian hastily explained."That's right! It was an accident that Roxanne got hurt. It has nothing to do with us!" The group was panicking.Edgar was a very decisive man and held authority within the family. It would only lead to trouble if they were to be apprehended by him. Even if they escaped death, they would probably still be tortured."Still trying to argue your way out? If it wasn't for your schemes, how would Midnight Shadow have suddenly gone berserk? "Do you think I'm stupid?" Edgar bellowed.Based on the information he received earlier, he found two aspects of the

Edgar had a dark, hostile expression."I won't!" Sheila bit her lips, not moving."You—!" Edgar raised his arm, about to strike her again, when Dustin grabbed him.He said coldly, "Try that again, and I'll break your arm!" "You impudent bastard!""Let go of Sir Edgar!" The soldiers advanced toward them. Their fiery stares fixated on Dustin and their gun aimed at him. "Stop it right there!" Suddenly, someone roared from the outside.Everyone turned to look to see a middle-aged man with a heroic appearance rush in with a beautiful lady.It was Sheila's parents, Caden Murray and Lily Doyle."Edgar, what exactly did Sheila do that you have to point a gun at her?" Caden questioned coldly.He saw that slap as clear as day."Caden, Roxanne was harmed and is still lying at the hospital. I'm just trying to track down the culprit," Edgar stated firmly."Are you implying that Shiela is the culprit?" Caden asked with narrowed eyes."Sheila may not be the culprit, but her friends w

"Mr. Caden, are you threatening me?" Dustin's smile disappeared after hearing those harsh words.From the start, he had been displeased with Caden. He disliked that he was untrustworthy and never stayed faithful to his promises. "It's a warning if you heed my advice; It's a threat if you don't," Caden admitted without reservations."Let me repeat myself. Sheila and I are just friends; I've never had ulterior motives. "It's best that we don't interfere in each other's business," Dustin stated calmly. "Brat, it seems like you still don't get it." Caden's expression was frosty. "What makes an utterly worthless character like you think that you are worthy of being friends with my daughter? Please take a look in the mirror and have a clear look at yourself. "The Murray family is not a place for opportunistic freeloaders like yourself."What was once a threat had now turned into a blatant insult. "Caden Murray. Don't be so full of yourself. You better drop your cocky attitud

Dustin said seriously, "Caden Murray, the Soul Devouring Technique is a crash course for those out of options. "If you continue down this path, you'll meet a violent end sooner or later!""Nonsense! I'm stronger than ever now! I can take on a thousand-man army without fear!" Caden roared. "Being strong is all an illusion. Right now, your body is deteriorating fast. If you continue in your foolishness, you'll only end up harming yourself and those around you!" Dustin warned. An instant death was considered merciful for those who practiced the Soul Devouring Technique. The real danger was if they went to extremes in training. They would go berserk and not recognize their loved ones, killing everyone they saw. That was why the nearest and dearest to them often suffered from their madness. There might even come a day when Sheila will be killed by Caden."Brat! You can stop with the nonsense now. Even if you come up with the most ridiculous stories, I won't spare you!" Caden sne

In the end, Dustin entered an antique study at Christopher's invitation. After they were served coffee, they started chatting."Kid, it's been ten years, hasn't it? You look like a completely new person compared to back then!" Christopher looked him up and down in astonishment. Ten years ago, Dustin was known as Dragonmarsh's number-one talent. He was young, arrogant, and rebellious. But today, he had transformed into a reserved man, hiding his abilities and talent."Ten years have passed, and you are still as dignified and graceful as ever," Dustin complimented. "I'm getting old. I'm not as imposing as I used to be." Christopher shook his head with a smile. "Kid, I don't think you came because you missed me. Do you have something to discuss?""To be honest, I'm here to visit you. But I'm also here to ask for a favor," Dustin went straight to the point.He even placed a gift he had prepared on the table as he spoke."Oh? What is it?" Christopher sipped on his coffee as he

The helper caught on and left immediately. Soon, he came in with a wooden box. "Kid, I'm giving this to you as a gift." Christopher received the wooden box before passing it to Dustin. Dustin opened it up carefully and was greeted by a unique smell. Inside the wooden box laid a colorful Cherusia. The Cherusia was the size of a palm. It appeared delicate and beautiful, resembling a perfect work of art. When illuminated by the light, it sparkled with radiant colors, creating a breathtaking sight. "It really is the Cherusia!" Dustin's face lit up as he jumped to his feet. He shook Christopher's hand enthusiastically. "Thank you so much for agreeing to give this to me, General Murray!"Christopher appeared genuinely generous as he replied, "I have no use for it myself anyway. Besides, I gain a favor by giving it to you.""I can't express my gratitude enough. Please do not hesitate to let me know if you ever need my help," Dustin said.The Cherusia was invaluable, yet Christo

Glenn wasn't just skilled in swordsmanship, but his technique was also flawless. Every strike was unpredictable, relentless, and impossible to block. His attacks came in waves, and each one was stronger than the last.What made him even more terrifying were the six divine swords that obeyed his every command. They were like extensions of his will. The swords threw Dustin off balance, attacking from every direction and blocking any chance of escape. They moved in perfect sync with Glenn and left no room for counterattacks.Dustin had no choice but to dodge and parry. If not for his incredible agility and mastery of the sword, he wouldn't have lasted more than a few breaths.Even so, the pressure was overwhelming. It felt like he wasn't just facing Glenn but six or seven skilled opponents at once. Any slip in focus, or any opening, could be his last.The real challenge was that Dustin wasn't gaining any ground. While he had to stay focused on dodging and blocking, he also had to se

Under the watchful eyes of the audience, Dustin and Glenn stepped onto the battle ring. They stood about 30 feet apart, and their eyes locked across the distance. Their gazes met like sparks, and they could feel the weight of the other's stare."Are you Logan?" Glenn asked, breaking the silence.He had heard the rumors about this dark horse before stepping into the ring, but now that he was facing him, he wasn't sure."Who I am doesn't matter. What matters is who wins this fight." Dustin didn't confirm or deny it, but his words left Glenn with no doubt.Both men were at the top of the Legendary List and held equal rank on the Champ-Tier List. Until they fought, no one could say who was the stronger of the two."I heard you're Seth's disciple, so I'm really looking forward to this." Glenn's gaze sharpened.Many years ago, his mentor, Cyrus, was defeated by Seth. That loss had always haunted Cyrus ever since. Now, with the disciples of both men about to face off, Glenn was determin

"Since Madam Penelope has spoken, I’ll follow her lead," Alloy said with a smile. "What about Mr. Hadley and Sage Foyer?""I'm in if you want to make a bet," Cyrus replied coolly."It's not every day we get an opportunity like this. Let me stir things up a bit." Kaden nodded with a grin.Once the three had agreed, Penelope waved for Abigail to come over.Soon, Abigail approached them with a wide grin. "Esteemed guests, I hear you want to bet. The current odds are—bet on Dustin to win, and you'll get 1.6 times your stake. Bet on Glenn, and it's only 0.4."She continued, "And no worries—if you win, I'll exchange your winnings for celestial stones." Abigail smiled brightly, and the other parties' eyes gleamed with the unmistakable shine of greed.Many had already placed their bets with her. Though she couldn't control the match's outcome, she knew how to adjust the odds to her advantage. Over time, that could turn into a huge fortune."I'm betting on Glenn to win." Cyrus quickly

"We're ready for the ultimate showdown of this tournament. The winner will be crowned the Combat Tournament Champion. Now, let's welcome both contestants to the ring." Oron's voice thundered as he stepped onto the battle ring.There was thunderous applause and cheers from the audience.The long-awaited showdown was finally at hand. Today's outcome wasn't just about personal glory, but it would also decide the future of the martial world.If Glenn triumphed and claimed the crown, the Sword Union would rise as the undisputed guild. The Celestial Alliance and the Mystic Arts Order would have no choice but to bow to their supremacy.But if Dustin won, it would be even more sensational. A dark horse, without any guild affiliation, defeating the elite disciples of the major guild—such a story would send shockwaves through the martial world.Once that happened, every major guild would fight tooth and nail to claim him. It would spark a fierce battle for dominance."Dr. Rhys! Good luck!"

"H-Hold on! I-I surrender!" Abigail said urgently. With the sword inches away from her throat, she decisively raised both hands in a gesture of surrender.She didn't expect herself to win the match. Her goal was simply to take this opportunity to test Dustin's strength and also gauge her own progress. But now, it was clear that there was still a sizable gap between them."You've done well. In a few more years, I might not even be able to keep up with you." Dustin smiled and lowered his Celestial Blade. His words weren't flattery; he genuinely saw potential in Abigail.The dark Phoenix flames carried a corrosive power that even his mystical pure energy couldn't resist. In other words, Abigail's black flames were the bane of any martial artist.Her journey in the martial world was still short—barely two years. She hadn't unlocked the full potential of her Phoenix bloodline yet. But with more training and experience, the sky was the limit for her."Don't try to console me, Sir. I'm n

With a resounding bang, the golden light erupted with a burst of terrifying energy wave. In an instant, the earth trembled, and fierce winds whipped through the air.Dustin and his sword were sent flying several yards. After landing, he stumbled back several steps before finally steadying himself.He looked up and saw that Abigail's body was now covered in a layer of golden armor, though he couldn't tell when it had happened. The armor glowed brightly, and it made her look imposing and striking.It was clearly a divine artifact.The Mystic Arts Order had been around for centuries, with deep roots and countless treasures. As the Grand Sorceress, Abigail would obviously have several divine artifacts for protection.Dustin wasn't surprised, but the armor's counterforce caught him off guard. Not only did it protect her, but it also had offensive capabilities.When his sword struck the armor earlier, the blow didn't leave a scratch. Instead, the armor absorbed the hit and sent the for

Dustin raised his hand as the black feathers rained down on him. A white energy shield flared into existence to form a wall before him.The feathers slammed into the shield and sent ripples across its surface but failed to break through. However, the black flames on the feathers spread across the shield and burned through its energy at a visible pace. In the blink of an eye, the once impenetrable barrier cracked open and left a gaping hole.Dustin couldn't hide his surprise. His mystical pure energy was far stronger than the average grandmaster's internal energy in offense and defense. It was meant to be impenetrable. He hadn't anticipated it couldn't hold up against Abigail's phoenix flame.Seeing the raw strength of her bloodline, he knew he couldn't afford to take any chances. As the black flames spread, he swiftly waved his hand to summon a furious gust of wind that sent the feathers and flames flying."Glaring Wings!" Abigail wasn't done yet. She quickly formed hand seals and

Abigail moved with lightning speed, and her figure weaved in and out like a shadow. Her swift movements left a blur of afterimages that was hard for anyone watching to keep up.On the contrary, Dustin stood still without making any movement."Fallen Fist!"After closing in, she unleashed a flurry of strikes—dozens of black palm shadows slamming toward his body, and each one was like a bullet aimed at its target.Abigail practiced a unique martial art, and it was imbued with voodoo-like properties that could kill anyone who made contact with her. But Dustin's body was immune to all poisons, so it was a perfect counter to her deadly attack.As the shadow palms closed in, he remained unshaken and thrust his palm forward.A fierce gust of wind surged and ripped through the air with unrelenting force. It collided with the black palm shadows.Abigail's black palm shadows exploded on impact and disintegrated into thick clouds of dark mist that quickly spread. Within moments, the mist e

The whole arena suddenly fell dead silent. Everyone stared blankly, and not a soul dared to breathe. Alloy shot to his feet in the main spectator seats, and his face was tense with worry. Yet, he didn't dare make a sound. He feared it might startle Glenn into making a mistake that could cost Fenley's life.After all, Fenley represented the future of the Celestial Alliance. Alloy had invested all his effort into Fenley, and he provided him with endless resources. If Fenley were to die in the match, it would deal a devastating blow to the entire guild.While Alloy was gripped with worry, Cyrus and Penelope cheered silently. They secretly hoped Glenn's sword would strike Fenley. If that happened, the Celestial Alliance would take at least a decade to regain its former glory.Fenley's body stiffened as he stared at the Fang Master hovering inches from him. A shiver ran through his spine as goosebumps prickled his skin. Sweat trickled down his face, and each drop hit the ground with a
