An Understated Dominance by Marina Vittori Chapter 1206

More and more guilds joined in on the mission to kill Dustin. At a glance, the place was jam-packed with people. The arena was so tightly

surrounded that there was no way out. In an instant, Dustin became the enemy of the entire martial world. He was now a villain that everyone was out to get rid of.

Ronald had been the leader of the Balerno martial arts alliance for many years. He was well-received and respected by all, with a strong following that rallied behind his every call. Now that he’d been murdered, it was a given that they’d all be angered.

But of course, the most important reason behind their agitation was that the Martial Arts Union had now declared Dustin a criminal. No matter what, Dustin would have to pay for what he had done. That was how things were in the martial world.

“Dustin! You have ignored our laws and committed a heinous crime! Surrender immediately and follow me to receive your punishment!

“If you do not, you shall be killed on the spot!” Woody roared. To murder someone in his presence was a blatant disregard for their laws and a clear disrespect to him.

“That was a private matter that had to be settled between Ronald and me. You should all stay out of it, or be prepared to face the wrath of my sword!”

Dustin stood proudly on the stage, slowly raising the Celestial Blade over his head. His sharp gaze swept across the place without the slightest hint of fear. He was publicly going up against the whole of Balerno’s martial arts scene.

“Hah! It seems like you don’t know death until it stares you in the face! “Listen up, everyone! The Martial Arts Union will handsomely reward whoever succeeds in killing the criminal!”

Woody wasted no time in delivering his order.

“Charge!”

With a deafening roar, thousands upon thousands of martial artists charged forward. They were motivated by the promise of a handsome reward.

They swarmed the place like a threatening hive of bees. Suddenly, a dark glow was reflected off a blade. It sliced through the air like a scythe.

With a resounding clang, It lodged firmly on the edge of the stage. As a result, a deep, long groove was etched on the sturdy stage.

The groove was about half a yard wide and 20 yards long. It drew a clear line between Dustin and the crowd, like a large trench that could not be passed. “If anyone dares cross this line, I shall show no mercy!” Dustin announced frostily.

That was his warning. If anyone did not fear death and decided to press on, he would not spare them. Seeing the mark scoured on the ground, all the martial artists were stunned. For a moment, all of them hesitated.

None dared to take the first move to go any further. Just a moment ago, adrenaline had surged within all of them. They had no time to consider the repercussions of their actions.

So when someone shouted for them to attack, they all followed suit. Now that they had a moment to calm down, it dawned on them just how fearsome Dustin was.

He was the one who had defeated the leader of Balerno martial arts alliance! They’d be seeking death if they just attacked him rashly!

“Why are you all just standing around? Go at him together and get rid of him!” Woody yelled from behind. No one could take on Dustin single- handedly.

But they had the numbers! They could charge at him simultaneously and wear him out. Once his internal energy was depleted, they could take him down.

“The Nephrite Sun is the best. You should take the lead.”

“I think you Skycranes are more valiant. You’re all so strong that each of you can take on 100 men.”

“Don’t Deathly Hurricane often boast about their powers? They should go ahead and test them!”

“Wait, you Combat Priests are trained to use the Adamantine Shield. You should lead the way.”

“We are priests. We do not take lives.”

Dustin’s sword had planted a seed of fear in all of them. They were all hesitant to challenge him and even began pushing others to go ahead first.

But in the end, no one dared to step forward.
