"Nathan won't hold up for much longer." Dustin could finally hold it in no more.

But what was meant as a warning received a lot of retorts from the Azure Mist disciples.

"That's nonsense! Nathan is extremely skilled, and his swordsmanship is incredible! How could he possibly be defeated?"

"Exactly! Please look closely! Nathan is winning!"

"Hmph! Why are you on the opponent's side and belittling Nathan? If you don't know what's happening, keep your nonsense to yourself!"

They shouted at Dustin.

Everyone could see that Nathan was overpowering Magnus! It wouldn't take much longer for him to win the battle!

But not only was Dustin not cheering Nathan on, he was even belittling him? How annoying!

"You probably don't know Nathan well, Dustin."

Vanessa proudly explained, "Nathan's so skillful that he's considered one of the top three in the younger generation of Lester martial artists.

"He's earned himself the nickname of the Little Dragon and has defeated many reputable martial ar

    "How is that possible?"Seeing all the disciples of Azure Mist lying on the ground and throwing up blood, Emily and Vanessa exchanged looks of horror.They had been standing at the back of the group, so they had not rushed up in time to help Nathan.What they saw was terrifying. More than ten elite disciples of Azure Mist were sent flying by a single slash of Magnus' sword.His strength was horrifying!"How dare you bunch of trash attempt to challenge me? You're just wasting your efforts!"Magnus pointed at them with his sword. He was looking down on them.He had only engaged in Nathan's challenge for fun. Now that he had his fun, it was time he ended things."As expected of Magnus. His skills are out of this world!""Hah! How dare a second-grade guild go against us? They were asking for it!"The Skycrane disciples laughed among themselves. The treasure was theirs now that they had defeated the Azure Mist."Magnus! Those girls with them are beautiful! "It'd be a pity to ki

    "Hey, you! I'll let you live if you can withstand three of my attacks!" Magnus taunted as he lifted his sword."Is that so? I'd like to see how great your skills are." Dustin's expression remained impassive as he went forward calmly."Dustin!" Emily grabbed his wrist. "Magnus is much stronger than us. You can't possibly win against him. You better run for your life!""That's right, Dustin! The guy is terrifying! You're no match for him!" Vanessa tried to persuade him against it, too."Rhys! Stop making things worse! Bring Emily and the rest away from here now! "You can't handle the situation here!" Nathan shouted at him."Exactly! Even Nathan can't win against Magnus! Do you think you can? Run while you can!"The disciples of Azure Mist yelled at him to run away. Though they didn't particularly like him, they didn't wish to see him dead."Don't worry. It's just Magnus. I'm not afraid of him." Dustin was calm like there was nothing to be anxious about. He walked forward.

    Everyone was silent when they saw Magnus explode into pieces.They stood there frozen in place with absolute horror on their faces. They looked like they'd seen a ghost. Many of them even wondered if they were dreaming. If this wasn't a dream, how can such a thing happen?That was Magnus, the lead disciple of Skycrane and a genius swordmaster from Yuston. He was strong enough to defeat all the disciples of Azure Mist single-handedly. How could a nobody like Dustin overpower someone of that level?No, he wasn't even overpowered. Dustin's punch shattered him on the spot.Just a single punch from him had shattered both Magnus and his sword. He had been so thoroughly destroyed that nothing remained.Was he even human? He must be a monster!"How—how could this be? Magnus—died?"Looking at all the blood on the ground, the disciples of Skycrane looked defeated. They trembled, and their eyes were filled with shock.It was hard for them to accept that Magnus, a genius swordmaster an

    A large crater in the shape of a palm was formed on the ground.The Skycrane disciples were buried in the soil and gravel in the crater. Some of them were severely wounded, while others died on the spot.All it took was one palm strike from him, and almost all the Skycrane disciples were wiped out. It was a truly powerful attack!"Master Chasey!"Upon seeing the elderly person, the Azure Mist disciples' spirits were uplifted. They gathered around eagerly as if they had met their leader.The elderly man was none other than Walter Chasey, the leader of Azure Mist!"Dad! You're here! We almost died!"Vanessa ran up to him with red-rimmed eyes. She looked like she was close to tears."Oh, you! You refused to train when I asked you to. Now you know fear in the face of danger!"Walter stood with his hands behind his back as he lectured Vanessa with a stern expression."Dad! They were too powerful! Even Nathan was no match for them. What could I do?"Vanessa pouted, looking hurt.

    With how Walter tried to pick a fight with him, Dustin started running out of patience. It was his choice to choose a mentor and whether or not to learn from him. How could it be forced on someone? Besides, Walter was just halfway to becoming a grandmaster. How could he be qualified to be Dustin's mentor?"Master Chasey, your skills are exceptional. Dustin would never look down on you. Maybe he just needs some time to consider things. "Once he sees just how amazing you are, he'll come to appreciate the offer." Emily quickly tried to smooth things over when she saw things getting ugly."That's right, Dad! The matter of importance now is not getting yourself a disciple. "Let's not get distracted from the treasure," Vanessa tried to change the subject.Though it was a pity, she did not wish to force Dustin into things. It would not be worth it to go overboard and ruin their relationship."I'll give you three days to consider the offer, boy. If you change your mind within three

    He had no problem lifting thousands of pounds with his strength. How was it possible that he could not lift a sword?"Try again," Walter urged.Ben didn't dare to hesitate. Taking a deep breath, he clasped both hands tightly on the sword's hilt and pulled it upwards with all his might.His veins popped, and his face flushed. He used all his strength, but the sword did not budge an inch."Master Chasey, this won't work. I can't lift it." Heaving a long sigh, Ben was already drenched in sweat."What a piece of trash. How could you not be able to lift just a sword? Let me do it!"Nathan couldn't take it anymore. He voluntarily walked up and pushed Ben aside. Then, he spat into his palms and rubbed them together.Setting his footing right, he grabbed the sword's hilt and deeply breathed. Mustering up all the true energy he had, he pulled up sharply. The black sword remained unmoving."Damn it! I don't believe this!" Nathan frowned. Unwilling to accept defeat, he tried several mor

    Looking at the black sword in Dustin's hand, everyone was astonished. It was simply unbelievable.They had tried hard to pull the sword out, but none succeeded. And now, it came out by itself and flew straight into Dustin's hand.The most shocking thing was that Dustin hadn't touched it the entire time!He had simply pointed two fingers at it and made a lifting motion through the air. The sword seemed to have sensed him beckoning it, so it launched out of the ground and landed straight in his hand.But why?They had put in so much effort and thoroughly tried to get it out, all to no avail.Why did the sword come to Dustin just because he had motioned to it?Was the sword discriminating against them? Or had it simply ignored them?"No! No way! How could it have been so simple for him?" Nathan's eyes widened in disbelief.Even Master Chasey had not been able to pull the sword out! Why had it gone to Dustin of its own will? What was going on?"Oh my goodness! Am I seeing things?

    This old geezer was abandoning his morals for his gain. He was greedy to make the sword his."Young man, let me make this clear. I'm not asking for your opinion," Walter said coldly. "Like they say, an innocent man will become a target if he possesses a prized possession. This sword isn't suitable for you. "Give it to me, and you can uphold your honor.""Sir Chasey, it sounds like you're threatening me." Dustin narrowed his eyes."I'm just giving you advice—a wise man understands his circumstances. You're still young, and you'll have many more opportunities. "You don't have to destroy your future over a sword, don't you think?" Walter continued.He was determined to get the sword at all costs. He would have done this long ago if he didn't care about his reputation."Master Chasey, the sword chose its wielder. Dustin is fated to have this sword. What you're doing isn't right, don't you think?" Emily frowned.She never thought her righteous master would completely turn his ba

    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

    "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
