"Who is this guy? He actually pushed Elijah back. That's impressive!""Having such formidable strength is mind-boggling at such a young age. He'd undoubtedly be a great asset if we could have him on our side!""Don't be so quick to judge. Elijah has yet to show his true strength. The outcome remains uncertain."As the crowd watched the intense confrontation between Dustin and Elijah, they couldn't help but discuss the extraordinary scene. As the top martial artists of West Lucozia, the crowd was familiar with each other's strengths. Hence, they found this mysterious young man intriguing.No one recognized Dustin as if he appeared out of thin air, adding an element of curiosity. Top-notch warriors like him were indeed rare, capable of single-handedly influencing the course of a battle."Austin, where did you find this young expert? I've never seen him before," Eloise asked while supporting her son, looking puzzled."Mom, the time isn't right yet. I can't tell you for now." Austi

"Someone! Take him down!" Julius finally issued a command in the face of Dustin's unrelenting assault. While it would have been best to recruit such a highly skilled individual, Dustin's refusal made him a potential threat that had to be eliminated since there was the risk of him joining the enemy. "Charge!" Everett and Shane both signaled with a wave of their hands. Instantly, hundreds of elite warriors surged toward Dustin. These were the Black Dragon Army's generals who possessed exceptional strength. As they attacked in unison, their combined power exceeded multiple-fold. "Halt!" Suddenly, a black shadow descended from the sky like a shooting star, crashing into the crowd with unparalleled speed.Following the thunderous impact, the ground shattered, and debris scattered. A powerful shockwave emanated from the point of impact, forcing those in its path to stagger back and almost lose their footing. "Who is that?" The crowd looked closely and saw that 50 feet ahead, an

Julius found himself thoroughly unsettled. Despite his meticulous planning and calculated moves, Rufus's return alive was an unforeseen twist he found difficult to accept. In fact, it wasn't Julius alone who was unsettled. Elijah and the other generals were equally stunned, their faces drained of color. The only reason they found the courage to join Julius in his rebellion was due to Rufus' death. They would never have dreamed of committing such treasonous acts if Rufus had been alive. "What a lively day. There's so many familiar faces in the crowd," Rufus remarked as he took his time walking out of the gates. The crowd instinctively made way for him. "Rufus! But you—!" Eloise struggled to find words, her expression a mix of bewilderment and disbelief. She had personally witnessed Rufus being impaled through the chest with a sword and saw him take his last breath. She had even arranged his funeral. She couldn't understand how a dead man could come back to life!"Don't

"A fair competition?" Everyone exchanged surprised glances. They never expected Rufus to agree to Julius' idea. Rufus had already turned the situation around. All he had to do was command the generals of the Black Dragon Army to capture Julius and put an end to this crisis. Instead, he offered Julius a chance to turn the tables, leaving everyone confused."Rufus—" Eloise was about to say something when Rufus raised a hand to stop her."It's fine. I know what I’m doing.""Rufus, are you really going to allow your son a fair competition against me?" Julius was taken aback. He had been ready to fight to the death, but he never expected Rufus to allow him a fair fight. What was this bastard up to? "Since you want a fair fight, I'll give it to you. I'm going to make you accept defeat on your own terms," Rufus said calmly."You've said it!" Julius' eyes narrowed slightly with a touch of satisfaction. He continued, "In West Lucozia, we value martial prowess. To become the Prince

"You rascal, you've been back for a while but never showed yourself. How could I have drawn you out if not through some clever means?" Rufus grumbled. "Alright, enough of the small talk. We'll settle the matter of your fake death later. Let's first address the current issue." Dustin's sharp gaze shifted toward Julius. Rufus' assassination attempt was the work of the Dragon Guard remnants. After the attempt, Julius swiftly rebelled and sought to seize power. For Dustin, this hinted at a likely connection between Julius and the Dragon Guard. Whether it was planning the rebellion or colluding with the remnants of the Dragon Guard, both were grave crimes in his eyes."Logan Rhys! " After the initial shock, Julius' expression darkened. It dawned on him that he had been manipulated. Rufus was undoubtedly aware of Dustin's presence among them, hence his quick agreement. It was also his way of acknowledging Logan's strength. He had to admit that although he hadn't seen Logan in te
