An Understated Dominance Chapter 2182
Abigail's words immediately caught the attention of the crowd. Among them, martial artists with a penchant for gambling were particularly eager to join in.However, everyone hesitated to approach her due to her status as the Grand Sorceress of the Mystic Arts Order."Alright, let me start things off!" Taking the initiative, Miles took a pendant and placed it on the table as his bet.He continued, "I'm betting on Number 28 in the third battle ring. He's a disciple of the Vanguard Sect, and from what I know, he's quite formidable. His odds of winning are high."Then, he grabbed a piece of paper and jotted down the number 28 before tossing it into the designated matching bowl.The tournament organizers randomly paired martial artists against each other rather than following a predetermined order to ensure fairness.When the referee called out a name, the respective participant had to step onto the battle ring promptly. Failure to do so or arriving late would result in disqualificati

"I'm going with Ms. Wesley's choice—Number 6 in the first battle ring." Dustin wrote on a slip of paper before tossing it into the designated bowl."Okay, good luck!" Abigail smiled and shouted, "Come and place your bets! The tournament is about to begin!"The martial artists nearby were eager to participate, yet not a single one dared place a bet.Their hesitation stemmed from uncertainty about the legitimacy of the betting pool. They questioned whether the Mystic Arts Order would truly honor double payouts if they won.So, they held back and waited for the outcome of Dustin and the others' initial bets. Only after seeing the result did they contemplate joining the action."Alright, the tournament has begun, so betting is officially closed. Let's all sit tight and await the results." Abigail signaled the end of the betting phase with a sweeping gesture.Soon, all eyes returned to the battle rings.At that moment, all eight battle rings burst into action simultaneously as sixtee

"Luring him in?" Miles's stomach sank a beat at the words. He stared at the third battle ring, feeling a bit uneasy. "Dustin, are you serious? I've got a lot riding on this.""You bet on Number 28, right?" Dustin asked.Miles nodded. "Yeah, why?" Dustin explained, "Well, Number 28 does have some skill, but he's being too aggressive. "At first glance, it seems he's dominating and pushing his opponent back. But if you pay attention, you'll notice his opponent's composed movements and steady breathing. "There's no hint of panic. It's like his opponent has been prepared for this. So, I'm guessing he's luring Number 28 by deliberately showing weakness. "And when Number 28 lets his guard down, that's the moment he'll strike.""Are you sure?" Miles was dubious. He narrowed his eyes as he carefully observed the battle, and his expression immediately changed. To his surprise, the battle matched Dustin's description perfectly.Despite Number 28's relentless attacks, he hadn't gai

Ruby thought Miles had a keen eye for these things, so she went along with the bet. But she didn't expect the outcome."You can't blame me for this, Ruby. It's all on that loser for letting us down and making us lose everything." Miles chuckled wryly."Hmph! I'm done betting with you!" she said, rolling her eyes at him.A bottle of haemoplenish could fetch a good amount on the market. She had hoped to make some extra cash, but now it seemed impossible."Well…" Miles looked embarrassed and tried to change the subject. "You know how it goes with winning and losing. It's all unpredictable. Just like Dustin and Crystal's pick, Number 6. They're also on the losing end, aren't they?""Huh?" Ruby raised an eyebrow suspiciously, then glanced at the first battle ring.At that moment, Number 6, the woman in red wielding a halberd, was locked in combat with the man in black wielding a shadowsteel staff.Despite her strength, the woman lacked speed and technique, so she gradually fell behin

At that moment, the man in black wasn't the only one surprised. All the spectators fixated on the first battle ring were also shocked.Nobody had anticipated that Number 6 would wear such heavy armor.The darksteel armor that weighed several thousand pounds was typically used for weight-bearing training. Even for the Divine-level martial artist, wearing it for just ten minutes would be taxing on the body. Even the most skilled martial artists would wear it for only a few hours. Yet, she wore the dark steel armor as if it were nothing. She even wore it into the battle ring to fight.Wasn't her decision to wear this armor during the fight foolish?"You… you've been wearing this while fighting with me?" The man in black couldn't believe his eyes as he pointed at the darksteel armor lying on the ground."Yeah, what about it?" She stretched her neck and hips as she gradually moved her lithe body. Once the armor was removed, she felt much more agile.He couldn't help but ask again, "

The man in black didn't dare to stand his ground. Instead, he swiftly dodged to the side.At that moment, Number 6's halberd nearly grazed his shoulder, but it only left a tear on his clothing. If he had been any slower, he might have lost an arm.She intensified her assault as her speed and strength increased with each strike. Each swing of her blade carried the sound of thunder, which made her attacks unstoppable.On the contrary, he continuously evaded her attacks. Even when he managed to block, his arms were left numb, and he was forced to retreat several steps with each blow. With no opportunity for a counterattack, he had no choice but to focus on defense."Hey, Miles, didn't you say she would lose? Looks like she's gaining momentum and might win." Ruby watched the fight with growing surprise from outside the battle ring.Initially, the man in black seemed to have the upper hand. But once Number 6 removed her outer clothing, she turned the tables. Surprisingly, her relentl

The man in black gracefully accepted his defeat.It was evident that Number 6 outclassed him. However, she allowed him a dignified exit rather than swiftly knocking him off the battle ring.After all, refusing to acknowledge defeat would have been unbecoming."Thank you!" She nodded respectfully.Ultimately, the first battle ring concluded with Number 6 emerging victorious."Dustin, you've got a keen eye. You nail the first match right off the bat. I'm impressed!" Miles exclaimed."It's just luck," Dustin replied nonchalantly. His bet was purely for fun, as the outcome didn't concern him.Miles lamented as he shook his head, "Luck is also a form of skill. I just lacked a bit of it. If Number 28 had been cautious enough and not underestimated their opponent, I might have won the bet." "Miles, it's not that you have bad luck. Your judgment is clearly off," Ruby shot back and rolled her eyes. "You were sure Number 28 would win, so I trusted you, but he lost. Then, you said Number

Naturally, this breakthrough was only achievable for those below the grandmaster level. After all, breaking through to that level demanded not just accumulation but also a significant qualitative leap. Regardless, the celestial stones held an irresistible allure for martial artists below the grandmaster level.Even grandmaster martial artists would envy them. They knew they could exchange celestial stones for other treasures, even if they didn't need them.It wouldn't be an overstatement to call celestial stones the premier currency in the martial world, as they could be exchanged for various treasures.So, Miles and the others were excited when they laid eyes on boxes brimming with celestial stones."I may not have any weapons or tablets now, but I have several boxes of celestial stones. I'll assess the value of the treasures you had bet earlier and then exchange them for celestial stones. How does that sound?" Abigail asked. "Wow, that's awesome!" Miles couldn't contain his e
