Chapter 1194: An Unyielding Refusal

“Young man, if you decide to join the Martial Law Bureau, I can personally assure you that you’ll be enshrined!” Derek sweetened the deal even further.

In the Martial Law Bureau, being enshrined held a higher rank than that of Deputy Sheriffs. A two-level promotion in such a short time was a remarkable advancement.

“I appreciate the offer, but I’m still not interested,” Dustin declined once again.

Derek frowned at this persistent rejection. He believed he had offered enticing incentives, but the young man appeared to have little interest in the Martial Law Bureau’s prestige.

“Really? You don’t even want to be enshrined in the Martial Law Bureau? What’s going on in this young man’s mind?”

“It’s a great opportunity to be recognized by the Martial Law Bureau. This kid doesn’t seem to appreciate it. He’s just plain arrogant!”

“Hmph! Even as a young grandmaster, he seems as insignificant as a chicken when facing the Martial Law Bureau!”

Jealous and resentful comments began circulating among the onlookers.

For many martial artists, joining the Martial Law Bureau was the pinnacle of honor. Dustin’s repeated refusals came across as pure arrogance to them.

“Young man, this opportunity may not come knocking again. Are you absolutely certain about not reconsidering the offer to join the Martial Law Bureau?” Derek’s tone turned cold, and he grew visibly impatient.

He had given the young man a lot of respect, but these continued rejections were trying his patience.

“No, I came to the Martial Alliance today to challenge the leader of the Martial Arts Alliance. I have no interest in anything else,” Dustin replied calmly.

“Very well then! Everyone has their own path. I won’t pressure you,” Derek responded tersely before leaving the stage.
