An Understated Dominance (Maria Vittori) novel Chapter 1196

Chapter 1196: Life-and-death battle?

The martial arts arena was abuzz with astonishment when Dustin boldly declared his intention to engage in a life-and-death battle with Ronald.

“What? A fight to the death? Is he out of his mind?”

“Did I hear correctly? He’s challenging Alliance Leader Ronald to a life-and-death duel?”

“He’s seriously overestimating himself! This is audacious beyond measure!”

“I would have admired his courage in a regular challenge, but a fight to the death? That’s pure recklessness!”

Dustin’s audacious proclamation left all the warriors in disbelief. Challenging the leader of the Martial Arts Alliance was already a daring feat, but now, demanding a fight to the death was seen as nothing short of foolhardy.

“Sir Dustin seems too impulsive. Why go to such extreme lengths?” Aria voiced her concerns.

It was common knowledge that in a life-and-death battle, there could be only one outcome – one of the participants would not leave the arena alive. There was no room for surrender.
