Chapter 355 by Marina Vittori
An Understated Dominance
âGo to hell!â Noticing an opening, Keane immediately seized the opportunity and fiercely swung his sword down. At that moment, a silver needle suddenly appeared, flew past the crowd, and struck Keaneâs sword. âClang!â With a clang, Kaeneâs long sword shattered.
âWhat? Who the hell did that?â Keane quickly retreated and had his guard up. The fact that someone could use the needles as a weapon and break his sword demonstrated the profound internal energy of the assailant.
âTo bully the weak with strength is one thing, but resorting to sneak attacks as well? Are all the people from Boulderthorn so despicable?â A cold voice came from behind.
Everyone turned around and saw a handsome man slowly walking out of the shadows. He then stood tall under a street lamp.
It was none other than Dustin, who had just arrived! âSir Lincoln, thatâs the guy! Thatâs Dustin! Heâs the one who murdered Tatumâs nephew!â
Seeing the newcomer, Luther immediately roared, âKill him! Kill him quickly! We must avenge Tatum!â
Brody and Oliver stood up, their aura intimidating.
Ever since their father was crippled, the status of their lineage has plummeted. Naturally, they harbored a deep hatred toward Dustin, the one responsible for everything.
âYoung man! So youâre the one who killed my two beloved disciples?â Clement narrowed his eyes, his face filled with hostility.
âI killed Joshua, but not Tatum. I only crippled him,â Dustin said calmly.
âNonsense! You killed Tatum!â Brody shouted angrily.
âThatâs right! We saw through you a long time ago! You took advantage of Tatumâs severe injuries and launched a sneak attack. How despicable and shameless!â Oliver chimed in.
âI wouldnât have gone through all the trouble if I wanted to kill Tatum. I would have finished him off directly in the arena. But of course, if you donât believe me, you can assume I killed him,â Dustin replied indifferently.
Looking at the current situation, Dustin knew there was no hope of clearing up the misunderstanding. No matter how much he explained, it would be futile.
âHey, Sir Lincoln! Did you hear that? This brat is extremely arrogant!â
âIf we donât tear him limb from limb, how will Boulderthron continue to stand on in the martial
world?â
Luther and his two sons continued to fuel the flames.
âYoung man! According to the rules of the martial world, a life for a life. If you offer your neck for
1/2
the kill, I can give you a quick death!â Clement declared.
âGo ahead if you want to fight. Stop talking so much nonsense,â Dustin replied rudely.
âNot bad, kid! Youâre surely arrogant!â Clementâs face darkened. âIf I personally take action, others will accuse me of bullying the weak with strength. So today, let my disciples have a go at you. If you manage to survive by some stroke of luck, Iâll spare your life!â
âFormation!â With a single gesture from Clement, seven of Keaneâs disciples stepped forward and surrounded Dustin from all sides.
Those disciples were the best in Royal Valor. All of them were powerful. Among the seven, three had already reached divinity, while the other four were Highâlevel martial artists.
Royal Valor was truly showcasing its experts!
âDustin, Iâll help you!â Maximus quickly realized that something was amiss.
âNo.â Dustin raised his hand and rejected Maximusâ offer. I want to see how formidable Royal Valor, one of the eight sects of Boulderthorn, truly is!â
âHmph! Today, Iâll make you admit defeat willingly! The Starâshifting Technique! Transform!â Keane shouted, and suddenly, the seven disciples changed their positions. They trapped Dustin in a peculiar formation.
âThe Big Dipper Array? Haha. This brat is doomed!â Lutherâs face couldnât help but light up with joy when he saw the scene before him.
The Big Dipper Array was a wellâknown formation in martial arts. In the formation, each of the seven participants took the positions of Dubhe, Merak, Phkeda, Megraz, Alioth, Mizar, and Alkaid. With this, they would trap their enemy.
The seven individuals would continuously move in an unending cycle as the formation changed.
Once the formation took shape, no one could break it!
âAttack!â Keane attacked from the front with three people, while the other three attacked from behind.
