LOGINUnder 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
"Damn it!"Cassian instantly sensed something was wrong. The moment his cultivation resolve wavered, Ashton seized the opening.With Cassian's mental energy, Ashton's ocular technique could never affect him deeply. But even a brief lapse was enough to give Ashton the perfect chance to strike.By the time Cassian snapped back to his senses, Ashton had already dragged him into a one-foot absolute attack range. A Sixfold Carnage Fist—Sextuple Burst crashed down with world-shaking force.Cassian's expression darkened. At such close range, there was no way to evade. Worse still, the proximity pushed the power of Ashton's punch to its absolute peak.Caught off guard, Cassian could only raise both arms to block as violent white astral winds erupted before him. Ashton's punch plunged downward like diving black dragons, tearing through Cassian's wind barrier and smashing directly into his arms.A loud crack split the air as Cassian's defense shattered once again. The violent impact blas
The sight of Cassian being blasted backward shocked everyone once again. Representatives from every faction stood frozen with their mouths hanging open, their faces filled with disbelief and growing fear.Cassian was the Lowery family's appointed heir, a divine-realm expert who possessed the Overlord Physique bloodline. Among the ancient martial families, he was regarded as a top prodigy. Despite having all those advantages, Ashton had still sent him flying with a single punch.Earlier, Cassian had stood like a white-robed war god and declared that he would crush Ashton and grind him into dust. But now, the result had slapped him across the face and left the Lowery family and all of Cassian's supporters humiliated.It was already clear that his first battle in the secular world would not be the flawless victory everyone expected. Instead, it might highlight Ashton's strength."Is a miracle really about to happen? Who dares call themselves unbeatable in front of Mr. Gray? Who dare
The seal buried deep in Ashton's soul was the only thing holding him back. Without it, he would already have broken through and stepped into the divine realm.Power coursed through him now, wild and relentless. His whole body thrummed with violent energy, eager for a fight that would push him to the limit.Ashton drew a deep breath. A flicker of dragon shadow flashed behind him as he burst forward and closed the distance with Cassian in an instant. Under the gaze of his draconic vision, Cassian's movements were laid bare, and his speed seemed to falter."Triple Lightning Strike!" Ashton let out a thunderous roar. Lightning and flame coiled violently around his arm as he drove a domineering punch straight toward Cassian's face.Cassian's expression darkened with fury at the sight of a mere semi-divine realm expert daring to challenge him."If you're that eager to die, I'll grant your wish."He had no intention of dodging. Instead, his pride drove him to meet Ashton head-on and c
Wynter's mouth hung open in shock.Beside her, Gavin's gaze turned cold as he shot a sharp look toward George. For the first time, a faint sense of unease rose in his mind.Jaden and Thomas both stood up abruptly. Their eyes widened in disbelief, and their throats went dry. They looked toward Lawrence, who remained calm and composed, as though he had expected this all along.The two men immediately recalled the wagers they had made with Lawrence earlier. A heavy feeling sank into their chests as a troubling realization crept in.They wondered if they had been set up. If Cassian truly lost to Ashton, then Maxwell's head would have to be handed over to Lawrence, and the legendary Sentinel Blade would belong to hum us well. That was an outcome they could never accept."This is nothing more than a desperate last struggle. Cassian hasn't even revealed his true strength yet. No matter what tricks Ashton uses, if he hasn't entered the divine realm, he will still die.""You're right. In
A violent surge of killing intent erupted from Cassian as his power reached its peak. The divine realm energy gathered in his palm condensed into blinding white beams that shot forward like arrows released from a bow, each one aimed directly at Ashton's vital points. The attack carried enough force to reduce him to ashes and leave him no chance of survival.With Ashton already badly wounded and his aura weakening, there was no way he should have been able to withstand such a devastating assault."Ashton, surrender now!" Roxy suddenly stood up and shouted. "This is your last chance. Cassian already promised me that if you kneel and admit defeat, he'll spare your life. Stop clinging to your pride. When death is staring you in the face, your dignity means nothing."She believed she was doing it for his own good and honoring the last trace of the bond they once shared as husband and wife.Ashton turned his head and glanced at Roxy, then smiled contemptuously."Roxy, you never had a
The air was thick with bloodlust.Trent's eyes flashed murderously. Armed with a heavy dose of aphrodisiac and a dagger, he led the charge into the Sloan residence.Roxy had hired a team of bodyguards to watch over the Sloan residence, but they were no match for the fearsome experts that Trent had
Ashton remained expressionless. From the moment he first saw Cadence, he'd already figured out that the latter was an SS-ranked expert.Nevertheless, regardless of how strong an expert was, it made no difference to him. He'd already reached the transcendent realm and reached its peak.A mere SS-ra
Apart from Cadence's reverence for Ashton, there was one other reason—a far more important one—for why he agreed to submit to Ashton.He saw the unlimited potential in Ashton. Perhaps Ashton would be the one who could guide him in his martial path and enable him to grow even stronger!If that were
A deadly silence overtook the place. The Gale Assembly members backed up several steps, none daring to come near Ashton."Mr. Suther…"Someone helped Cadence back onto his feet."I'm fine," he said.After swallowing down the blood in his mouth, he stared dazedly at Ashton, who hadn't budged at a
