An Understated Dominance Chapter 806
"Oh no … There goes our chance of winning.""How did things turn out this way? How could we have lost every single round?""The Knighthood Society tournament this year is an embarrassment for all of us martial artists from Balerno!"Jared's defeat sent the Balerno martial arts alliance into low spirits. There was anger, disappointment, helplessness, and also resentment.Both sides had always been on the same level in the previous Knighthood Society tournaments, making it an exciting event for everyone. No matter the outcome, they always gave their all and gained the audience's respect.But the tournament today was unexpectedly depressing for the Balerno martial arts alliance. They had been crushed in the first three rounds, and there wasn't anything worth watching.Things seemed to look up for them in the fourth round. In the end, they still lost. They have now consecutively lost for four matches and were utterly humiliated. It was truly shameful."No … That's impossible! My sen

Dustin glanced at Azalea and pulled his arm away from her grasp."Him? How strong do you think he is? He isn't even fit to be compared to Jared!" Desmond mocked."Exactly! Jared's ranked 12th among the Heavenly Immortals! This bastard isn't even worthy to be near him!" Devon exclaimed."If Jared's so great, why did he lose earlier?" Dustin countered. That simple question silenced everyone."Hmph! I've indeed lost, but do you think that you'd be able to win? With your level of skills, you won't even withstand three hits!" Jared forced through clenched jaws."Is that so? Let's wait and see then." Dustin smiled faintly, not saying another word. He would much rather prove himself with his abilities than participate in meaningless arguments.Right then, someone exclaimed excitedly, "Look! Someone's replacing Oscar in the arena!" Everyone looked toward the middle of the lake, only to see Oscar leave the platform.Another graceful and elegant man in white made his way toward the plat

With a loud splash, Joel jumped into the lake and escaped when he saw Dustin.He splashed and thrashed wildly in the water like a fish on the verge of death. He looked terrified.Jared and Devon were stunned. Even all the Boulderthorn disciples and the Glenstead martial arts alliance members were shocked. Everyone gaped in disbelief.For the most senior disciple of the Zen Order, an expert ranked tenth among the Heavenly Immortals, to be scared and flee in terror. Nobody expected this outcome!The pure fear in his eyes made him look like he'd seen a ghost. If they had not seen it for themselves, they would not believe such a thing happened."Wh—what? He ran away?""What the fuck? What's going on? The match hasn't even started, and he's already given up?""Has Joel gone crazy? Look at him. He looks like he's possessed!'After a short silence, an uproar broke out among the crowd.Joel's actions stunned both those from the Balerno martial arts alliance and the Glenstead martial

Brutus frowned. Daniel and the others were also terrified by what they heard."Let's go back, master! I'm withdrawing from the tournament this year!" Joel sounded like he was almost in tears. The traumatizing experience he had been through several days ago haunted him like a nightmare.He boasts of his exceptional talent and outstanding martial arts skills. He had never been defeated since he made a name for himself. That night he never expected to run into two monsters.The first monster was a lady who beat him up so badly with a teacup alone that he threw up blood. Then, a man showed up, and he was even more terrifying. The man nearly killed him with his bare hands!Since that night, his confidence and pride were completely ruined. He felt as if a shadow figure towered over him in his mind. Thus, when he saw Dustin, he was scared to the point of fleeing without regard for his pride."Don't worry, Joel. What happened the other night was just an accident. Maybe your eyes wer

The voice surprised all three of them. They looked over to where the voice came from, only to see Dustin standing on the platform in the middle of the lake. He had his hands behind his back, looking totally composed."Hey, brat. What did you just say? I didn't catch you." Alan's eyes narrowed, squinting at Dustin."I said the three of you should fight me together. That will save us a lot of time, and you won't have to fight over who fights the match. Wouldn't that be better?" Dustin asked calmly.An uproar broke out among the crowd."Fuck! Is the bastard out of his mind? How dare he be so arrogant?""Does he have a death wish? How could he challenge three experts who rank among the top ten of the Heavenly Immortals?""Hah! He doesn't know what he's getting himself into!"The crowd pointed at Dustin and commented among themselves. They looked at him like he was out of his mind."Jared, is the fella out of his mind? He doesn't even stand a chance against them. How dare he chall

"Hah! What a bold statement! I'd like to see what you're capable of!"Alan couldn't hold back any longer. He took a step forward, raising his broadsword high. Then, he brought it down at full force, slashing mercilessly at Dustin.It was a powerful strike, almost possessing a force capable of splitting the earth. As the broadsword slashed toward Dustin, the lake surrounding the platform rippled from the force."Impressive swordplay!"The onlookers were surprised. The Heavenly Immortals lived up to their name. It was amazing how just a casual move had such terrifying power.Dustin shook his head. Instead of backing off, he pressed forward. While dodging the strike, he threw a heavy punch at Alan."That was quick!"Alan's eyes narrowed as he reflexively blocked the punch with the back of his broadsword. Dustin's fist landed heavily on the sword, making a dull thud.Instantly, Alan was sent flyings several feet away, his sword still in hand. When he landed, he needed a few moments
An Understated Dominance Chapter 812
Alan attacked straight on while Lexi supported him from the side. They worked in perfect unison, each move aiming to kill.In a match between experts, the outcome was never certain. Hence, they needed to gain the upper hand.Dustin remained impassive and focused on dodging the oncoming attacks from both sides.His focus was on Torres. The cold and murderous intent radiating from him was impossible to ignore.For an assassin to be ranked among the top ten Heavenly Immortals proved that he was far from normal.Though he appeared weak and sickly, that was a front to deceive his enemies. He would strike mercilessly once there was an opportunity, making even grandmasters wary.Alan's broadsword slashed wildly in the arena, making loud whooshing sounds.Attacks came relentlessly at Dustin from both sides. Their movements disturbed the water around them so much that the fishes leaped up in alarm.Dustin moved swiftly, dodging left and right to escape their attacks. But in the eyes of

"I—" Joel started but stopped himself. In the end, he just sighed.If he had not experienced it, he would have found it hard to believe that Balerno had such a fearful talent too.Over in the arena, the match got heated.Alan and Lexi gave everything they had. They initially started out attacking full-on, pursuing Dustin relentlessly. But as time went on, they began to feel something was amiss. They couldn't reach Dustin, no matter how they attacked or surrounded him.He moved around like a ghost, and they could not touch him. He would evade their fatal strikes whenever they thought they would hit him.They could pin it on luck if it happened only once or twice. But it was different when it happened multiple times.It was as if the two of them were not attacking but rather being led on. It felt terrible, and the two began to panic.They knew that if that went on, they would exhaust their true energy. And when that happened, they would be entirely at Dustin's mercy."Torres! W

Moments later, the once-turbulent sea finally calmed. All that remained was a dense cloud of steam. Like a giant beast, it slowly drifted across the water, as if telling the tale of the heart-pounding battle that had just taken place.Dustin stood on the surface of the sea with the Celestial Blade in hand. His face was grim as he looked ahead. His clothes were torn, and his body was covered in cuts and bruises. Blood streamed from his wounds and dyed the water beneath him red.Suddenly, a headless corpse floated to the surface. Covered in blue scales, it had torn, ragged wings on its back. The body was riddled with gaping wounds as the dark blue blood seeping from it dissipated into the water.The body belonged to Poseidon."H-He's dead? How is that possible?"Looking at the headless corpse floating on the sea, Warrick and the others couldn't help but stare in shock. They never imagined Dustin could slay one of the world's mightiest royal gods with a single blow. If they hadn'

Poseidon slowly rose from the seawater, his wound now fully healed. A flicker of madness flashed in his eyes. The severe injury he just sustained not only failed to make him retreat but instead ignited an even stronger fighting spirit within him.He sneered. "Logan, you've surprised me. But you're still going to die today."Poseidon spun his trident wildly, and the already turbulent sea grew even more violent. The waters swirled around him and formed a massive vortex. It expanded rapidly and soon reached nearly 1,000 feet wide. The surrounding waters were sucked in with terrifying force.The suction was so powerful that even Warrick, Mulder, and the others, watching from a distance, had to brace themselves to avoid being pulled in."Hmm?"Dustin frowned as he felt an overwhelming pressure closing in. The force of the swirling vortex before him was terrifying, as if it could swallow everything in its path. But he didn't flinch. In a flash, he launched forward like a streak of
Chapter 2518
Poseidon scoffed. "You're so full of yourself." The surrounding seawater surged violently. It transformed into countless razor-sharp water spikes and whistled toward Dustin. The deadly edges glinted under the sunlight. Like a silver rainstorm, the barrage swallowed every inch of space around him.Dustin's sharp gaze locked onto the incoming strikes. With a light swing of the Celestial Blade, a streak of black sword aura shot out. Every water spike in its path shattered into mist and rained down in a cascade of droplets.However, Poseidon refused to relent. His attacks came in endless waves, an unbroken torrent.He gripped his trident with both hands and spun it, creating several blue energy rings. Each one expanded rapidly and surged toward Dustin like crashing waves.Dustin's figure flickered and vanished from his spot. The next second, he reappeared just outside the energy rings.Hovering in midair, he spun at incredible speed. The Celestial Blade in his hand turned into a b

"Logan, I have to admit that you're stronger than I thought. I never expected you'd push me this far," Poseidon said.His arms slowly spread wide, and his blue eyes glowed with murderous intent. "As a mark of respect, I will give it everything I've got. You'll witness the true extent of my power."With a flick of his hand, he made a grabbing gesture. His trident, which had fallen to the bottom of the sea, shot back up through the water and landed firmly in his grasp.Compared to his earlier arrogance, Poseidon now stood with a newfound seriousness. It wasn't just Dustin's strength that had him on edge but his terrifying potential.At only 20, Dustin already possessed this level of strength. If he continued to grow, he would become a serious threat to the Hall of Gods. Hence, Poseidon resolved to eliminate him today."Watch closely," he said.Poseidon slowly raised his trident and gripped it like a javelin. While channeling his energy into the weapon, it pulsed with an intense blu
Chapter 2516
Dustin was Dragonmarsh's elite prodigy, while Poseidon was the famous royal god of the Hall of Gods.Every move they exchanged unleashed destructive power. Within moments, the area within a 300-foot radius was reduced to wreckage.Dustin wielded his true energy-infused longsword. Each swing unleashed a blinding flare of light as if it could split the sky apart with the Celestial Blade.On the contrary, Poseidon's trident commanded the winds and rains. Each strike could summon huge rolling waves as if he were a god reigning over the forces of nature.Sword aura clashed against walls of water and plunged the entire area into chaos.Warrick and the others watched with rapt attention. Their eyes were locked on the battle ahead as they tried to make sense of the chaos.But Dustin and Poseidon were moving so fast that their actions were almost impossible to follow. Their movements blurred together, and they could only catch flashes of two figures constantly clashing. Their strikes ca
Chapter 2515
"Let me correct you," Dustin said.As his hand slowly tightened into a fist, a white longsword formed from his true energy. "In Dragonmarsh, there is no 'God. ' We only have the Lord of the Dead."The moment the words left his mouth, a tempest of sword aura exploded outward. Within a radius of several dozen yards, the winds howled, sand and stones were sent flying, and the waves along the shore grew even more violent."Such overwhelming pressure. That sword aura is insane. Is this Logan's actual strength?"Feeling the surge of energy, Warrick and the others couldn't help but turn pale. It was then they realized that Dustin hadn't been fighting seriously before. Or perhaps, with their strength, they hadn't even earned the right to make him fight for real. They figured only someone of Poseidon's caliber could force Dustin to go all out."Interesting… truly fascinating." Poseidon suddenly laughed. "I thought you were just a pup, but it turns out you're a hungry wolf. Now, this is s
Chapter 2514
Poseidon hovered in the air with his trident in one hand and radiated a commanding presence. He stood like a god, and his figure was so intimidating that it struck fear into those who beheld him.With a wave of his hand, an invisible energy struck Warrick and expelled the three silver needles from his body. Feeling sensation returned to his limbs, Warrick's face lit up. He quickly rose to his feet and clenched his fist to his chest in salute."Thank you, Lord Poseidon, for saving me. I will never forget this kindness!" he said."No need for formalities, Sir Prescott. Now that you've pledged yourself to the Hall of Gods, it's only natural that I ensure your safety," Poseidon replied with a faint smile as he descended gracefully."Your timely arrival was a blessing," Warrick said as he bowed his head slightly in deference. "Otherwise, we would have perished tonight."The Hall of Gods' royal gods were figures he could only look up to. Everything about Poseidon, from his power to hi

Mulder knew Warrick had been on the battlefield for years, and his physical strength was unmatched. On top of that, he was already halfway to becoming an ultimate grandmaster. Even if Warrick couldn't defeat the prodigious Logan, Mulder figured the difference wouldn't be too big. But he never expected Logan to take down Warrick with a single finger, leaving him severely injured and unable to stand. The difference in their strength was far beyond anything Mulder could have imagined.In other words, Logan had been toying with them from the start and didn't take the fight seriously. If he had, they would've all been dead.Warrick clutched his chest and coughed up blood as he staggered to his feet. His chest was a charred ruin, the flesh torn open and slick with blood. It was an awful, gory mess."I didn't expect you to be this strong. I underestimated you," he growled.He slowly raised his head, and his face twisted with a menacing look. "Guess I was just unlucky to fall into your
Chapter 2512
"Oh? You guessed it?" Dustin smirked. "Now that you know who I am, it's up to you to decide what to do."If Warrick chose to surrender, Dustin would simply seal his pressure points and leave him to Austin's judgment. But if he resisted, Dustin wouldn't hesitate to cripple him."Haven't you given up your title as the prince? Why did you return? Are you going to compete with Austin for the throne?" Warrick asked.Uncertainty flickered across his face before he continued, "If that's your intention, I can help you. Spare me today, and I guarantee you'll become the next Prince of West Lucozia."Power was a tempting beast. History was filled with stories of brothers turning against each other and fathers murdering their sons for it.In Warrick's mind, Logan's quiet return to West Lucozia meant one thing—he was after the throne."Guarantee?" Dustin scoffed. "What guarantee are you offering?" His voice was dripping with disdain. "You're a cornered rat now. You're barely holding on to you
