An Understated Dominance Chapter 782
The crowd was silent as they stared at the red number. Looks of astonishment replaced the smiles on their faces. No one expected Dustin to have such terrifying strength. His punch was over ten thousand pounds of force! It was incredible!"Fuck! Who is this guy? How can he be so strong?""And I thought five thousand pounds was the limit. This guy broke through ten thousand!""Damn it! He's a freaking monster!"The martial artists present began discussing among themselves and expressed their surprise.The Steeljaws Fellowship disciples were in shock, unable to believe it. Desmond had exerted his full strength only to achieve five thousand pounds of force. While Dustin easily surpassed ten thousand pounds of force. Dustin completely crushed them with that display of strength. It was humiliating! "How was that possible? How could this skinny guy have such incredible strength? Did he use internal energy?" Gianna questioned. "If he used internal energy, the machine would have
An Understated Dominance Chapter 783
After a short silence, the room erupted in cheers.Everyone looked at the numbers displayed on the screen with wide eyes. They were in disbelief.Dustin's ten thousand pound record was already terrifying. He could get promoted to the next level with that.Who would've thought that another more frightening monster would show up?Fourteen thousand pounds completely replaced the previous record!It was simply horrifying!"Hahaha. Devon is just impressive!" Gianna burst out laughing and jumped around in joy."That's God-given talent!" The other disciples were also overjoyed. They could also share some of this glory thanks to Devon's achievement."You're insane! You broke the record with just one punch!" The martial arts alliance staff's wide eyes were filled with admiration."Hmph, that was nothing. I was just warming up. Now I'm getting serious!" Devon clenched his fists, stretching his neck from side to side. Then, he gestured for the crowd to make way for him.He exhaled. Then

Everyone was stunned as they watched the strength tester machine fly over 30 feet away.They were rooted to the spot and didn't react for half a minute.Their eyes were as wide as saucers. Their mouths opened wide in disbelief that an egg could fit in there.They never expected that something like this could even happen. The entire strength tester machine broke down from just a punch.Was he even fucking human?!"My eyes aren't playing tricks on me, right? He sent the strength tester machine flying?""What the fuck? Where did the monster come from?!""This is completely out of this world! Nothing like this has ever happened before!"After a short silence, the crowd whispered among themselves.They all looked at Dustin like they had seen a ghost. Their shock was written all over their faces.It wouldn't have been such a big deal if Dustin had scored higher. Devon would just grit his teeth and accept it.But now, Dustin destroyed the machine with his fist. How could he accept
An Understated Dominance Chapter 785
"Well …" The staff was in a dilemma.Since the machine was already broken, they couldn't verify whether he had cheated. Of course, they could not just invalidate the results.Not to mention, Dustin's first punch had reached ten thousand pounds. He could already get promoted with that. Thus, whether he cheated during the second punch was unimportant.After thinking for a moment, the martial arts alliance staff finally decided. "I'll investigate this thoroughly, but there will be no changes to the promotion target. Please proceed with the next test." "Hmph, you got lucky!" Although Devon was unhappy, he knew he couldn't do anything to Dustin without evidence."You cheated in the first test. Let's see how you pass the second one," Gianna said unkindly."Let's move on to the second test. We'll find out whether he cheated or not." Desmond gestured for the others to follow him to the next test venue.The second test was called the agility test.The candidates had to cross a row of s

After Thomas stood on the stilts, he suddenly turned his head to look at Dustin. "Punk, your biggest mistake is looking down on Boulderthon. I know you're powerful, but you are nothing compared to me when it comes to agility. Open your eyes and watch. I'll show you what being as agile as a hare means!" Thomas raised his head proudly.When it came to strength, he was nowhere near Devon. However, no one could compete with him when it came to agility."Ready, set, go!" The bell rang, and Thomas immediately moved.Like a dragonfly skimming the water's surface, he hopped on the stills lightly.Not to mention, he was swift. They could barely see his silhouette as he moved like a shadow. They couldn't follow his movements."Whoosh!" Suddenly, hidden weapons shot out at him, one after another.Some came from the side, while others sneaked up on him from behind.Yet, as if he had eyes on the back of his head, Thomas dodged all the weapons. He switched between moving slowly and quickl
An Understated Dominance Chapter 787
Everyone gave him a thumbs up, acknowledging his achievement."How was that? Do you acknowledge my skills now?" Thomas turned around and taunted Dustin. "Now, do you know what agility is? You'd better learn a thing or two from me!""Punk, are you scared now? Who else can finish the test in less than a minute?" Devon said pridefully."That's right! When it comes to agility, no one here would dare claim to be better than Thomas!" Gianna boasted.The two of them chimed in one after another, using Thomas' glory to act like bullies.Dustin was speechless. "He took such a long time to cross these stilts. What's there to be proud of?"All he did was dodge a few waves of hidden weapons. How arrogant."From your tone, it seems you won't acknowledge Thomas' success. Come on then, if you have what it takes, why don't you try? I want to see what you can do!" Devon mocked."Hmph, you sure know how to talk big Then get up there! Why are you hiding at the back? You're just like a turtle hidin

"T—that's impossible! How on earth did you do that?" Gianna stuttered, utterly shocked. She didn't have time to process everything since it happened too quickly. "Are you going to accuse me of cheating again?" Dustin retorted. "I—" Gianna didn't know what to say. Earlier, Dustin might have cheated by using internal energy. But, using internal energy was allowed in the agility test. Anyone who safely got through the row of stilts naturally passed. There was no way she could accuse him of cheating anymore. Still, she couldn't accept it. "Hmph! So what if he's fast? He only passed because he used underhanded tricks!" Desmond grumbled dismissively. "The internal energy test is up next. I doubt you'll pass!""He's right! Internal energy determines a martial artist's strength. No matter how fast you are, you're useless if your internal energy is weak!" Gianna echoed stubbornly. "Hey, kid! I dare you to compete with Desmond and see who has stronger internal energy! The winner get
An Understated Dominance Chapter 789
"Come on! You can do it!" Many people began to cheer for Desmond. Nearly half of the crystal ball had turned golden. He needed to hold out a little longer, and the crystal would turn fully golden. "Aargh!" Desmond gritted his teeth and continued channeling his internal energy into the crystal ball. His strength was draining fast. His face beaded with sweat.Seconds later, the crystal ball hummed as it turned fully golden. Desmond collapsed onto the ground. He was relieved and exhausted. "Hooray! He did it!""Good job, Desmond!"Everyone cheered excitedly. "You sure are strong. Well, congratulations! You get to advance to the next level!" The alliance staff praised with a smile. Few people could turn the crystal ball gold in one shot. "What now, punk? Do you accept the outcome yet?" Devon sneered. "Did you see that? That's how powerful Desmond is. He easily surpassed the limit and advanced to the next level. Can someone like you do that?" Gianna gloated. "What's the

"This is interesting." Dustin smirked as the dense barrage of swords came slashing down at him. In the blink of an eye, his figure dissolved into a wisp of smoke and vanished.A storm of sword shadows carrying the force that could split rivers and overturn seas crashed down on the fishing boat where he had just been standing. The entire vessel broke apart in an instant—some sinking into the depths while others drifted across the water."What? He dodged it?" Warrick's eyes flickered with surprise.Mulder's attack just now had been a 360-degree attack. Once caught in its range, there was no chance to dodge—only the option to endure. He couldn't understand how Dustin had managed to avoid it. Did he just teleport?"Hiding like a coward? What kind of warrior are you? Come fight me face-to-face."Frustrated after his attack missed again, Mulder grew desperate. His enhanced serum would only last for 15 minutes. If this dragged on, he'd collapse from exhaustion before Dustin even touche

"Oh? Are we going all out now?" Dustin smirked, with a hint of amusement in his eyes.Mulder, who had advanced to become a grandmaster martial artist through drugs, had a weak foundation. Even after taking the enhanced serum, he still posed no threat to Dustin. If Mulder were a hundred times stronger, he might just barely be able to fight Dustin.As the serum's effects pushed his body to the limit, Mulder suddenly let out a furious roar. His muscles swelled rapidly, and his bones cracked as they expanded. His body grew larger at an alarming rate, and his clothes tore apart under the strain.His six-foot frame stretched to nearly seven feet in mere moments as his body swelled to monstrous proportions. His face twisted fiercely, and his skin darkened as black scales surfaced.With another guttural growl, his roar turned beastlike. He grabbed his shredded shirt and ripped it away, exposing his broad chest covered in dark scales. A faint, eerie sheen flickered across their surface."D

Dustin's words made Mulder frown.Mulder knew all too well that Warrick was the kind of man who had no sense of loyalty or honor. If Warrick could kill his own personal guards without hesitation, what would stop him from killing a stranger? Mulder was certain that the moment things went south, Warrick would be the first to flee. Given the choice, he'd never willingly risk his life as Warrick's sacrificial pawn. But now, there was no turning back.With his undercover identity exposed and him helping Warrick escape, Mulder became a sworn enemy of West Lucozia. His name was now on the most-wanted list.Tonight was their best chance to escape. If they missed it, finding another way out would be nearly impossible.There was only one path left for him—kill whoever stood in his way and make it onto that escape boat."Enough talk, punk. Let's see what you're really made of," Mulder said.After weighing his options, he gritted his teeth and finally decided to draw his longsword. His fig

"You had your chance. Don't blame me for what happens next," Dustin said.With a slight squeeze of his fingers, the steel blades clamped between them shattered with a sharp clang.Before the two Hall of Gods members could even react, Dustin waved his hand.The two men were sent flying as if they'd been hit by a truck, hurtling over 30 feet through the air. Blood sprayed from their mouths and noses before they hit the ground. They were critically injured and on the verge of death.Dustin slowly turned his head and looked at the man who had just tried to ambush him.The man glanced at the broken sword in his hand, then at Dustin, who looked utterly unfazed. He hesitated for a split second—then bolted.With a powerful leap, he dove straight for the sea. He knew Dustin's strength was on a completely different level. There was no chance of outrunning him on land, so the only hope was to disappear into the water.It might have worked—if not for what happened next.Just before he hit

"You're not a fisherman? Who the hell are you?"Mulder's guard shot up the moment he got a clear look at the young man's face.Fishermen who spent their days at sea were usually tanned from the sun, but this one had a fair complexion. It felt a little strangeNoticing something was off, the men behind Mulder drew their blades and fixed their sharp gazes on the fisherman.The so-called fisherman standing guard wasn't just anyone—it was Dustin, who had been waiting for them all along.Since his plan was set in motion, he'd been stationed there from morning until midnight. After what felt like an eternity, his targets had finally arrived."Isn't it obvious? I'm here to capture you."Dustin rose from the deck and rolled his shoulders before speaking in an even tone. "If you don't want to die, surrender now. Otherwise, it'll be too late.""Watch out! It could be an ambush." Mulder swiftly pulled out his dagger. His sharp gaze scanned the surroundings for any sign of hidden troops.

As night fell, Warrick sat motionless in his room as he tried to calm his mind through meditation. He had always been able to clear his mind with ease. But tonight, no matter how hard he tried, focus eluded him. A restless unease settled over him and refused to let him relax.Nearly two hours passed before Mulder's scouts finally returned. This time, they brought good news.The smuggling route they had scouted was completely safe, with no signs of an ambush. The West Lucozia army had yet to discover this potential escape route.Once everything was confirmed, Mulder let out a breath of relief. Warrick, too, finally felt the weight lift from his chest."Since the route is safe, we should set out immediately to avoid any unexpected complications." Warrick said. He had no intention of waiting any longer. He was a wanted man, and every moment in West Lucozia increased his chances of capture. There was no telling when the army might surround him. Only by escaping to Thaloria would he

After a hearty meal, the burly Warrick sprawled lazily onto the bed and dozed off. He slept soundly till dusk, lost in a deep dream. When the sky was painted in brilliant hues of the setting sun, only then did he wake up leisurely.The exhaustion from the previous day seemed to have melted away. He felt invigorated, refreshed, and in high spirits.At that moment, Leigh had already set the table in the hall with quiet efficiency. Compared to the first meal, this spread was far more lavish.At the center of the table sat a whole roasted pig. Its golden-brown skin glistened with a rich, crispy sheen. The mouthwatering aroma filled the room, making it impossible not to crave a bite.Warrick had never been one for formalities. The moment he saw the feast, he didn't hesitate. He strode over, took a seat, and started digging in. He ate with zero restraint without sparing a single thought for Mulder, who was still out gathering intel.After a while, half of the roast pig was gone. His fac

"Who is it?" Warrick's grip tightened around the hilt of his steel blade. His eyes, sharp and alert, were like those of a startled predator—full of caution and menace.For the past few days, he had been on edge, like a cornered animal. He barely slept and was constantly on high alert, fearing danger would strike at any moment.The door slowly creaked open. An elderly man with gray hair stepped inside with a tray of fruit and pastries in both hands.Before he could even register what was happening, a flash of cold steel appeared, and Warrick's blade was at the elderly man's throat.The elderly man trembled with fear. The tray slipped from his grasp, and fruit and pastries scattered on the floor."Easy, Sir Prescott. He's one of us." Mulder stepped forward and pressed down on the flat of Warrick's blade with a finger. He smiled and explained, "His name's Leigh Houston. He's mute and has served the Hall of Gods for years. He keeps watch over this tunnel entrance and has never slipp

"Here's the problem—even if we know Warrick's intentions, how do we stop him?" Austin asked.Right now, Warrick had already disappeared without a trace. Austin's team hadn't even come close enough to get a hold of him, so there was no way to track him down.West Lucozia's vast territory and resources made it impossible to seal off every exit route completely. While it might be manageable in the short term, prolonging such an operation would significantly impact West Lucozia's economy. Wasting resources on a single fugitive wasn't a wise move."Warrick is a wanted man across the entire city. There's no way he's leaving through official channels. He'll have to sneak his way out," Dustin analyzed. He continued, "According to the maritime charts, if he's traveling from West Lucozia to Artea, he'll have to go through Thaloria. That's our lead. Get someone on it immediately—find out how many smuggling routes there are from West Lucozia to Thaloria.""Got it. I'll get it done right away
