"Anyone who doesn't want to end up six feet under, clear out! Don't blame me if you get caught in the crossfire and push daisies!"

With that warning, the Bloodfiery Legion disciples cleared the area, preparing for the impending duel.

They were all too familiar with the bone-chilling might of Kendricks. His blade aura alone could claim lives.

As shouts erupted, the spectators scattered. Only Dustin and Kendricks stood within 300 feet apart, facing each other.

One stood proudly as the eighth-ranked legend, a powerhouse in his own right. The other had recently defeated Marco, a rising star in their domain.

Excitement surged as news of the impending duel spread. It even attracted numerous martial artists eager to witness the outcome firsthand.

"Everyone, what's your take on Dustin's chances against Kendricks's blade?"

"I'm not so sure! Kendricks is eighth on the Legendary List. He's formidable. If he's daring enough to issue the challenge, he must be confident in his victory!"

    Wherever the blade aura passed through, the ground shook as if the air was distorted. A huge pressure began to envelope the entire place.The onlookers could feel the pressure on them. It was as if a huge stone had landed on their shoulders. Those who were weak even had trouble breathing, their legs trembling."What a powerful slash! Was that the power of a person ranked eighth on the Legendary List? That was eye-opening!""That slash was astounding! No one could possibly take that! Dustin's in big trouble!""Poor guy. He shouldn't have offended Kendricks. He's so dead."Everyone was overwhelmed by Kendricks' slash.They could feel the sharpness of the blade aura as well as its tremendous power just by the look of it. Many of them thought that Dustin was as good as dead."Dustin! Show them what you got! You must withstand that pressure!" Dalen gripped his lighter tightly, tensing up. He knew Dustin had high potential, but this was Kendricks, ranked eighth on the Legendary List

    The onlookers were astonished by the powerful surge, but they also wondered if Kendricks had successfully taken Dustin down with just one slash.After all, Kendricks was ranked eighth on the Legendary List. He was capable of breaking a mountain with a single slash. It was almost impossible to withstand his slash."Crystal, can you see? How is it? Is Dustin dead?"Ruby tried to take a peek at the battleground while blocking the wind with her hand. Her stomach was in knots.Although she and Dustin were at odds, it didn't mean that she hated him or wanted him dead."I can't see clearly. Let's wait a little longer."Crystal stared into the distance, trying to see what was happening in the dust haze.The crash of the auras was so strong that it caused a massive dust haze within a mile radius. No one could see clearly.A moment later, the dust haze lifted. Everything was back to normal again.The figures on the battleground were visible to the audience again.Kendricks, who stoo

    Kendricks left with the disciples of Bloodfiery Legion.Everything was back to normal, at least for now.Once again, Dustin's unexpected performance became the center of attention.He had gained some reputation for defeating Marco Alessandro. Now, his reputation grew stronger after he withstood Kendricks's slash without harm.Dustin had earned a place in Sacred Wrym Summit, where all the strongest warriors were gathered, with only two battles."Thanks for the sword." Dustin turned and raised his hand with the sword.The sword flew out of his hand and returned to Ruby's sheath.Everyone was amazed."Dustin! Congratulations!" Miles walked toward Dustin with a smile. "That was a beautiful strike! To think you could block Kendricks' blade aura with a sword aura! Fancy that!"Miles might sound a bit flattering, but he meant what he said. No ordinary warrior could take Kendricks' attack head-on."Hmph! Good thing my sword is still intact." Ruby raised her chin as she acknowledged D

    A stout man ran to them hurriedly. He was Terra Shade, the head of the Evil Quintet of Shadow Citadel.Terra appeared disheveled and was covered in wounds, looking rather pathetic compared to his previous dignified appearance."Terra? What happened to you?" Dalen looked at him from head to toe and frowned. He had a bad feeling about this."Dalen, you must avenge us! My brothers and sisters… the four of them were all murdered!" Terra fell to his knees with a thud and started bawling like a baby.It was a heartbreaking sight."Murdered?" Dalen furrowed his brows and asked, "What happened? Why were they murdered? Have they offended someone powerful?"The Evil Quintet of Shadow Citadel was well known in the martial world. Each of them had their own unique skills.If the five of them worked together, ordinary grandmaster martial artists might not be able to take them down.Apparently, the murderer was not any ordinary warrior since the four of them were killed and Terra was severely

    It was dusk, and in a private room of Poise Brothel, Dustin and the others gathered to listen to Terra's report.Although the murderer was still at large, Terra had found out something through his investigation."Dalen, based on our Shadow Citadel's intelligence report, I've found something out," Terra began. He continued, "Someone saw the killer last night. According to the witness, the killer was skinny, and his face was hideous. There's also a black mark on his forehead."I've hired an artist to draw a portrait of the killer based on the witness's description. Here it is."Terra took a portrait out from his pocket and handed it to Dalen carefully.Dalen looked at the portrait and frowned.The person in the portrait was indeed hideous, skinny, and bony. There was a palm-sized black mark on his left forehead, which looked like snake skin.His creepy appearance was hard to ignore, let alone forget."You sure this is the murderer?" Dalen asked, puzzled.He knew almost all the

    Even if these untalented people insisted on practicing swordsmanship, there would be huge obstacles along the way.Yet, they had found an exception.Despite his deformity, this man's sword technique had surpassed many martial arts geniuses.How unbelievable!This man was out of the ordinary.There might be thousands of martial arts geniuses in the world, but there was only one untalented martial artist who overshadowed the geniuses!No one could imagine what the man had gone through in order to achieve his current state."Looks like we have a tough fight ahead."Dalen took a sip of tea. Then, he glanced at Terra and asked, "Anything else besides the killer's portrait?""Yes, according to our investigation, the killer killed seven people last night!" Terra's words surprised everyone."Seven? Who were they?" Dalen raised his brows."Aside from Aldric Lang of Bloodfiery Legion and four of Evil Quintet, Spearhawk Vincent of Celestial Alliance was murdered too," reported Terra.

    "What?" When they heard Dustin's analysis, they found it hard to believe.The idea that someone wanted to kill all of Dragonmarsh's martial artists, regardless if the person could succeed, was scary enough. Only a maniac would think of something like that.Crazy people like them were the most fearsome."Terra, did all of those people that were killed sign up for the Combat Tournament?" Dalen couldn't help asking.Terra nodded. "That's right. Although they come from all sorts of sects, they had a common goal. All of them wanted to show their prowess at the Combat Tournament."Aldric, Vincent, Simpson, and even Shadow Citadel's Evil Quintet, had signed up for the tournament. They planned to show off their skills at Sacred Wrym Summit.However, their young life had ended before the tournament began."If that's the case, Dustin's speculation should be right."Dalen stood up and circled the table while beating his folding fan on his palm. Then, he said thoughtfully, "Any martial a

    "I don't dare say it's a brilliant idea, but it's simple and effective. If we can grab the opportunity, it shouldn't be difficult to catch the killer." Dalen said with a smile."Mr. Shade, your idea isn't bad. One question, though. Who's going to be the bait?" Crystal quickly grasped the main problem.The most difficult part was to choose who to be the bait.The person must be a contestant and extremely skilled, daring to take the risk. This way, the bait could come out unscathed when faced with the killer's attack.Otherwise, they might lose the bait and let the killer escape."Well…" Dalen shook the folding fan and looked toward Dustin meaningfully.Although he didn't speak, it was obvious who he chose.Crystal suddenly patted Dustin's shoulder and announced, "There's no need to choose. I think Dustin is a good fit! He can even block Kendricks' attack. I'm sure he'll be safe when faced with the killer's attack!""That's right! If Dustin agrees to take part, I'm sure he can ge

    "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

    "Glenn had only seven swords in the past. I didn't expect that in just one year, two more divine swords would recognize him as their master. This punk is much better than I was back then," Cyrus remarked. He stroked his chin with a look of surprise and approval. He had always believed in Glenn's potential, but Glenn's performance had still exceeded his expectations.After all, the more swords Glenn wielded, the stronger he became. He had already topped the Legendary List with just seven swords. Now, with nine, his strength had grown even more overwhelming."He truly is the Chosen One." Even Kaden couldn't help but sigh.The nine divine swords recognized their master and responded with ease. Glenn's talent and cultivation were leagues ahead of his peers.Every generation brought forth new talent, and the old had no choice but to step aside for the new generation. Compared to their time, today's youth were on another level—monsters in their own right."Now, this is going to be int

    Compared to the second green sword, Glenn's third sword was even more powerful. As it descended, accompanied by the fury of a fire dragon, it carried the destructive force of a world-shattering storm.Fenley, whose energy flow was disrupted earlier, watched the fiery red long sword streak toward like a falling meteor. His heart raced and was gripped by a sudden sense of impending doom.With a roar, he risked the backlash effect and unleashed a powerful surge of internal energy. The ethereal divine spirit behind him instantly transformed into a figure with three heads and six arms. This was the complete form of the Four Elements of God's Technique.At that instant, he threw everything he had into the fight. He controlled the spirit to slam its giant arms into the flaming sword. With a loud explosion, the sword tore through the spirit's palms and continued its unyielding path toward Fenley. But its speed had slowed slightly.Without hesitation, he controlled the spirit to strike ag

    When the spectators heard the match was about to begin, the excitement reached a fever pitch. Half of them cheered for Fenley while the other half chanted Glenn's name. Both were the Chosen Ones, and their popularity was undeniable. Everyone had been waiting for their face-off in the battle ring.Though Fenley ranked slightly below Glenn on the Legendary List, his fame and influence as the successor to the Celestial Alliance's guildmaster outshined Glenn's. Ultimately, the question of who was stronger could only be answered in the ring."I've been waiting for this day, Glenn." Fenley stared at him intently. His voice was powerful and commanding. He continued, "Others say I'm not your equal, but I refuse to believe it. Today, we'll find out whether your sword is faster or if my Four Elements of God's Technique is superior.""The moment you said that, you've already lost. Your doubt shows you lack the confidence to defeat me," Glenn replied calmly. If this were a fight-to-the-deat

    After the quarterfinals, it was time for a break. With noon approaching, contestants and spectators needed food and water to recharge. An hour later, the venue was buzzing with excitement again as Oron stepped onto the battle ring. He was accompanied by a Sacred Wrym Summit disciple, who carried a black box filled with numbered balls."It's almost time. I'd like to invite the top four contestants to the ring to draw lots," Oron announced as he surveyed the crowd.Amidst a wave of enthusiastic applause, four figures ascended the battle ring one after another. First in line was Glenn, with Fenley right behind him, followed by Abigail and Dustin."Sir, we're in the semifinals. Good luck!" Abigail winked playfully at Dustin as she stepped into the ring."You too," he replied with a smile.Given Abigail's strength, her odds against Glenn were slim. However, if she faced Fenley, she would have a solid chance at victory.After all, Fenley had only just broken through to the ultimate g
