An Understated Dominance (Maria Vittori) novel Chapter 2015

"Huh?"

The sudden change threw everyone off guard. Everything happened in a split second, and they barely had any time to react.

Dustin took Alexander down in a blink of an eye. In an instant, Alexander was already seriously wounded.

To most of the martial artists, Alexander, the leader of Frostwing Sect, was flung toward a wall in a heartbeat.

The entire situation happened too rapidly.

"H-How is this possible?" Bran was dumbfounded when he saw how badly injured Alexander was. His eyes widened in disbelief.

He had never imagined that Alexander would be defeated tragically, let alone lose in a fight.

After all, Alexander was one of the five strongest people in the Southwest. He was a grandmaster martial artist with excellent abilities.

Aside from Damien, the master of Drakes Dominion Order, no one could rival him in the entire southwest.

Bran thought it was a sure victory for Alexander in this battle. However, things seemed to have taken an entirely different turn.

Not only did Alexander lose, but he was also taken down by Dustin with a single strike.

The drastic change was unbearable to Bran.

"Am I possibly seeing things? The leader of Frostwing Sect lost? Lost to a brat, a mere nobody?"

"What happened? What exactly happened earlier?"

"A single strike! That brat took Mr. Forge down with a single blow. How absurd! Ridiculous even!"

"Damn it! Who is this guy? Why is he so strong?"

The crowd broke into a clamor after a brief moment of silence.

The Drakes Dominion Order, Frostwing Sect, Jackson, and his companions were equally astounded by Dustin's power.

It was still understandable when he beat Tobias and Elder Greene. After all, he was a grandmaster martial artist and had the upper hand due to his level.

However, things weren't quite the same in Alexander's case. He had gone past the level of grandmaster for more than a decade now, and he was incredibly skilled.

Yet, he was still taken down by Dustin with one blow despite his ultimate skills. It was beyond words for them to comprehend how flabbergasted they were from the situation.

This could be proven by how Alexander's protection shield was easily shattered earlier. It fell apart in an instant, completely incapable of defense.

In light of this, Dustin was way stronger than Alexander in terms of cultivation.

It was safe to say that he was at least at the advanced level of grandmaster or even a fully developed divine-level martial artist.

A fully developed divine-level martial artist who was only in his 20s was extremely rare in the whole world, let alone in the southwest.

Damien couldn't understand why Dustin, being as mighty as he was, would show up here. And worst of all, why was he the one witnessing it?

What should he do about it now?

"Goodness gracious! Is this what he's been hiding all along? He's terrifying!"

Jackson swallowed hard. Aside from being stunned, a surge of respect rose in him.

He knew Dustin was strong, but his strength went far beyond his imagination.

Dustin had taken down Alexander, the leader of Frostwing Sect, with a single blow.
