"You actually dare to challenge Dustin? Do you have a death wish?" Miles took a couple of steps forward and glared fiercely at Krel and Jimmy, exuding a strong presence. Although Crystal and the others remained silent, they all stood beside Dalen, showing their stance. As Sword Union's disciples, they had no fear of the Boulderthorn.Jimmy exclaimed in anger, "Hey! We're elite disciples of the Boulderthorn. Are you going against us for this random punk?"Dalen said coldly, "Does it matter if we are? Do you think Shadow Citadel is afraid of you?"Miles said loudly, "Not only Shadow Citadel's disciples, but Sword Union's disciples are also ready to stand with Dustin!"Jimmy's expression changed instantly upon hearing his words. "What? You're Sword Union's disciples?" Dealing with the Shadow Citadel alone would be easier as the Boulderthorn wasn't afraid of the Shadow Citadel. However, the situation would be entirely different if the Sword Union was added to the mix.Jimmy i

Krel wasn't confident he'd win against Dustin in a head-on confrontation. However, if Dustin were severely injured by attempting to lift the 100-thousand-pound cauldron, it would turn the situation around completely.He would easily win this gamble and finally vent his pent-up resentment. "Hey, punk! Weren't you going to make me enjoy a feast? Why are you just standing there? Come on! Show some guts, and try lifting it!" Jimmy began taunting Dustin after noticing his inaction. He thought that Dustin was panicking, unsure of how to proceed in the face of the massive object. "There's no need to rush. I'm just considering where you should start from." Dustin assessed the massive cauldron from top to bottom."Hmph! You're all talk!" Jimmy sneered in disdain. "If you really have the skills, stop babbling and let your strength do the talking. As long as you can lift the cauldron, I'll devour it clean in front of everyone!""You must be really hungry." Dustin shook his head with

"Ah… I…" Jimmy was extremely flustered amidst the clamor of the crowd, sweating profusely as he retreated nervously. He had carelessly said those words since he never expected Dustin to lift the 100-thousand-pound cauldron.That was how he found himself in the current predicament, urged by the crowd to eat the massive cauldron. It was made of solid bronze! Even if it were made of chocolate, he would end up stuffing himself to death. "Everyone, what I said earlier was out of line. I spoke words I shouldn't have and have realized my mistake. Please forgive me," Jimmy said, smiling faintly as he clasped his hands together. "You've realized your mistakes? A little too late for that now, don't you think?" Miles glowered at him."To be honest, I preferred your unruly behavior more. This meekness doesn't suit you," Dalen said as he shook his head.They might as well go all out if they were going to humiliate him. "Hmph! Boulderthorn elites, my ass! You're nothing but a bunch

Dustin left. Leaving behind the massive cauldron, he casually walked away. His enigmatic silhouette faded into the distance. It left the crowd wondering if Krel and Melissa got lucky, or if Dustin had done it intentionally. The crowd leaned toward the latter. After all, how could someone capable of lifting a 100-thousand-pound cauldron make such a rookie mistake?"Thank you, Mr. Rhys!" Melissa was both moved and delighted as she watched Dustin's retreating figure. She knew that Krel had been spared. "Dustin, are you really going to just let him off the hook?" Dalen asked as he caught up with Dustin."A frightened coward is no longer a threat," Dustin said with a faint smile. "Besides, he's still a Boulderthorn disciple. Killing him would only bring trouble, and I hate trouble.""I beg to differ. Perhaps you simply have a soft spot for beauty?" Dalen smirked. Had it not been for Melissa's plea and her willingness to give up her life to protect him, Krel would have met his

Vincent's murder weighed heavily on Ruby's mind.She knew that she wasn't stronger than Vincent, so if the assassin could kill Vincent, then it would be just as easy for the assassin to kill her. "We've already discussed our plans for luring the assassin out. Coupled with Dustin's impressive performance during the test, I believe we'll soon get their attention. "Who knows, the assassin might act tonight!" Dalen said in a whisper. "The sun has set. We should start making preparations." Crystal looked up at the sky.Only twilight lingered on the western horizon, and in half an hour, the land would be shrouded in darkness. "Dustin, good luck." Dalen's expression was serious as he continued, "But don't worry, I've contacted Quincy from the Celestial Alliance. He'll fully support our plan. "Once the assassin shows themselves, we'll attack together. We won't let you bear the risk alone.""Don't worry. Since I've agreed to be the bait, I've made preparations accordingly. You jus

"Where's the target? How far are they from the tavern?"Dalen's voice raised a couple of decibels in the earpiece, evidently excited. Besides the elite fighters lying in ambush, there were also numerous scouts lurking around the tavern, with Miles being one of them.If there was any movement, they would be the first to know. "At the entrance to East Alley, about 200 meters away from the tavern," Miles' voice rang out once more, accurately pinpointing the location. "What are they wearing?" Dalen asked. "Looks like they're dressed in black with a mask. It's hard to see clearly from this distance."Since it was already dark, visibility was low, making it difficult to make out the details. "That should be the assassin!" Dalen lowered his voice. "Everyone, listen to my command. Once the assassin gets close enough, we'll surround him immediately and have him apprehended!"After a long, anxious wait, they finally caught sight of the assassin. Dustin glanced outside the wind

Dustin saw a masked man in black with a sword in both hands as he walked up the stairs slowly. "Are you Dustin?" the man in black grunted. "That's me." Dustin nodded. "You had a pretty good plan to lure us out, but unfortunately, we saw right through it."The man in black sneered. "You're all alone now without any help. Only death awaits you.""Likewise. You may not necessarily gain the upper hand in a one-on-one fight against me," Dustin remarked flatly. "Who said I'm going to fight you alone?" The man in black chuckled before clapping twice. As soon as the claps rang out, two figures suddenly leaped through the windows on either side. Two more masked assassins dressed in black had appeared. The three of them stood in formation. They weren't only dressed the same but were also similar in height and build, making it difficult to distinguish between them. "Three against one. We have the advantage now." The man in black in the middle smirked. "Who exactly are you? W

Dustin didn't dodge when the three assassins attacked him. He simply lifted his foot and lightly stomped the ground.A dull thud resounded as his foot left a deep imprint in the ground.At the same time, a surge of powerful energy burst forth from his body, and it quickly formed a translucent protective shield in front of him.The three assassins swung their swords, but they struck the shield instead. A low hum filled the air, accompanied by a deep rumble.Despite their relentless efforts, the assassins couldn't breach the shield. All they managed to do was push it back by a mere three inches.Dustin's protective shield was as strong as steel wire mesh. Even when swords pierced and bent it, it remained intact."What?" The man in black's face went white when he saw his attacks weren't working.After taking a miracle cure earlier, he reached the level of grandmaster. Armed with a shadowsteel sword, he was accompanied by two elites halfway to becoming grandmasters.The man in bl

"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
An Understated Dominance Chapter 2390
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
