Under the relentless killing intent, more wounds tore open across Cassian’s body. Dark red blood continued to seep from the gashes, and the searing pain shot straight to his head, twisting his face into an even more ferocious expression.

He clenched his teeth tightly as humiliation and pain fused into blazing fury. The inner energy within him surged wildly, protecting his vital meridians and guarding his heart.

A thunderous impact exploded across the arena. In a flash, Ashton’s punch reached its absolute peak. The terrifying force smashed Cassian straight into the ground, leaving a massive human–shaped crater.

Blood scattered through the air like falling leaves, and the crowd froze.

At that moment, every spectator held their breath as they stared at Ashton standing in the arena, dressed in black. Awe spread through the crowd.

They had never seen such overwhelming dominance. It felt as if they were witnessing the rise of a new king, a legend being born before their eyes.

“Cassian!” Wynter cried out in panic.

The image of Cassian as unbeatable was beginning to crumble in her mind, leaving her deeply shaken. She couldn’t understand how the man she believed could never lose might fall to someone as unknown

as Ashton.

Gavin’s expression darkened. His brows furrowed as he murmured, “I never expected someone this dangerous to appear in the secular world. If this man survives, he will become a serious threat.”

“Mr. Lowery, Cassian…” she said hesitantly.

“It’s fine,” he replied.

His eyes narrowed slightly as he let out a sigh.

“Cassian has had everything go his way his entire life. Experiencing a setback may not be a bad thing. It will give the world a chance to witness the true strength of the Lowery family. He’ll come back stronger after this. If anything, we should thank Ashton.”

On the other side, unease crept over Jaden and Thomas. The memory of the wager they had made with Lawrence tightened their expressions, and killing intent flickered in their eyes as they began to suspect they had walked straight into a trap.

“Ashton is forcing his body to serve as a vessel for the world’s spiritual energy,” Jaden said coldly. “He’s pushing his power to the absolute limit his body can endure. That explains his strength. But why hasn’t the backlash torn his body apart yet?”

His eyes glinted as he studied Ashton. The longer he watched, the more dangerous Ashton seemed.

For a moment, he even saw Lawrence’s shadow in him. Back then, Lawrence alone had suppressed an

entire generation, leaving countless prodigies in the shadows.

Jaden would never allow the Legion to produce another man like Lawrence.

“Ashton’s bloodline is extremely powerful,” Thomas said in a low voice. “His body can withstand far more strain than anyone imagined, and his willpower is astonishing. He truly is a rare genius. Unfortunately, anyone from the Legion who is this talented deserves to die.”

“Mr. Lachberg… Cassian won’t lose, right? Ashton isn’t actually going to win this fight, is he?” Maxwell asked, his voice trembling.

After all, his own head had already been placed on the line in the wager. If Cassian lost and Ashton claimed the title of King of Javonbury, Maxwell would be the one who died. He knew Lawrence would never spare him.

“Relax, Jaden said as he exhaled slowly. “The appointed heir of the Lowery family would not deserve that title if this were all he could do. Cassian has not yet revealed his true strength. What comes next will decide the outcome of this fight.”

As he spoke, he glanced toward Lawrence.

Lawrence remained completely calm. A faint smile crossed his face, and the pride in his expression was impossible to hide. When he looked at Ashton, his eyes were filled with satisfaction and expectation.
