Chapter 1183 by Marina Vittori
An Understated Dominance
âWhoa! Can you believe it? This guy took down the chief senior disciple of the Soul Reapers with just one finger?â
âWhatâs going on? How can this kid be so strong?â âWhere did this monster come from? Did he actually defeat Lance? Thatâs terrifying, isnât it?â
The unexpected turn of events caused quite a stir. Everyone had expected Lance to win, but Dustin overpowered him. This showed a clear difference in their abilities, and it amazed them.
âIs he really that powerful?â Josie was taken aback. Initially, she assumed Dustin was only good at hidden weapons, but his physical power was astonishing.
With a single finger, he had effortlessly flung Lance into the air. Among the martial artists of Balerno, no one was his equal.
âRhys⦠Mr. Rhys defeated Lance?â Lyn rubbed her eyes in disbelief. She had always admired the chief senior disciple of the Soul Reapers. Even so, Dustinâs easy victory was incredible.
âThe chief senior disciple of the Soul Reapers? Heâs so weak! He couldnât even defeat this kid. Heâs truly useless! âToddy sneered.
In his eyes, Dustin was beneath him. Seeing Dustin defeat Lance made him believe he could do the same. He could do better, and the thought boosted his confidence.
âWho⦠who are you?â As Lance stood up, he stared at Dustin with fear-filled eyes. He never thought heâd lose to someone his own age. The defeat was so crushing that he couldnât fight back.
âWho I am is none of your business. Now call your leader over here,â Dustin replied calmly.
âKid, take back your arrogance!â. Lanceâs expression darkened. âYou may be strong, but youâre not qualified to challenge my leader.â
âChallenge? No, youâve got it wrong. Iâm here to teach him,â Dustin replied. His words took everyone by surprise.
âUnbelievable!â
âHow dare you?â
At this, the Soul Reapersâ disciples angrily scolded Dustin. They were seething with anger and ready to take action. They were aware that they couldnât take on Dustin, but they believed they could win by joining forces.
âYouâre really fearless, kid! So disrespectful to our leader like that? Youâre just asking for trouble!â Lance was furious.
âStrength is important, but donât be reckless. Sir Thorne, the leader of the Soul Reapers, is renowned in the martial arts world. Youâre out of his league,â Josie warned.
She acknowledged Dustinâs strength but found his words and actions excessively arrogant. Even if he defeated Lance, Dustinâs desire to challenge Graham was an overestimation of his abilities.
âMr. Rhys, let it be. Donât let things escalate,â Lyn whispered. Grandmasters were akin to gods to ordinary martial artists. The level seemed approachable, but it was unattainable. So, a fight against a higher-ranked opponent inevitably meant defeat.
âI repeat myself. Bring Graham Thorne here. I intend to settle an old score with him today,â Dustin declared coldly.
âWho has the gall to call my name so brazenly?â
At that moment, a powerful and commanding voice rang out.
