Chapter 489 Preferring To Keep A Low Profile
Little did anyone know that Emrys was a martial arts expert whose strength completely overshadowed Darrell’s.
For a moment, Darrell found it surreal and attempted to stand up. However, he saw Emrys extend a finger and place it on his shoulder.
In that moment, Darrell felt the terrifying power akin to a mountain bearing down upon him.
Darrell admitted defeat.
Cold sweat streamed down his forehead as he realized this wasn’t a dream.
This was the most humiliating and quickest battle Darrell had ever experienced as a martial artist. His opponent had used only a palm and a finger to bring him to his knees.
However, with Emrys possessing such capabilities, how could he possibly be just an obscure nobody?
His martial arts talent was evidently even more terrifying than Larissa’s!
Darrell was truly at a loss, unable to make sense of it.
It seemed as if Emrys had seen through his thoughts, for he slowly began to speak, “In the world of martial arts, some people prefer to be ostentatious, while others prefer to keep a low

profile. I belong to the latter group.”
Darrell fell silent.
Emrys simply meant that he preferred not to draw attention to himself. He had never revealed his true strength and talent within the Martial Arts Alliance, and thus, he had not made a name for himself in the world of martial arts cultivation.
Upon reflection, it seemed quite understandable.
Darrell knew that some martial arts experts lived their entire lives in remote mountain villages. Under the guidance of experts, they quietly devoted themselves to rigorous training for decades.
After descending from the mountains, they generally adopted a low–profile lifestyle. However, when they did take action, their skills were so astonishing that they left everyone in awe.
The Martial Arts Alliance greatly desired such talent.
Darrell thought he had figured out Emrys‘ background. He swallowed hard and said, “Emrys, with your talent, joining the Martial Arts Alliance will surely lead to a promising future. Please, don’t do anything foolish!”
The foolish things Darrell spoke of naturally referred to Emrys‘ opposition against Brian. Of course, part of it was also about Darrell himself, hoping that Emrys would not take any more excessive actions against him.
To put it bluntly, he didn’t want to be tormented too harshly.

No sooner had Darrell finished speaking than Emrys lifted his knee and drove it into his face.
Crack!
Two front teeth fell out.
Emrys revealed an innocuous smile and asked, “What do you consider a foolish act? Would this count?”
Darrell, clutching his blood–filled mouth, crouched on the ground searching for his knocked–out front teeth.
His resentment was overwhelming, but there was nothing that could be done.
At that moment, a roar came from the corner. It was Brian. “D*mn you, Darrell! What the h*ll are you up to? Pfft—”
He was never a match for Maximus in the first place. When Maximus charged at him, he quickly used both hands to protect his head, waiting for Darrell to come to his aid and deal with
Maximus.
Yet, while he waited, he had already taken several punches. Even so, there was still no sign of Darrell coming to his rescue.
Glancing to the side, he saw Darrell crouched, seemingly searching for something on the ground.
Brian was so infuriated that he couldn’t help but curse aloud. The moment he lost focus, he was struck in the face by a punch from Maximus. Moreover, Maximus was quite fierce. After finding an
