At 7:00 pm, Dustin, Abigail, and Azalea arrived as planned at the resort's restaurant. The restaurant was spacious enough to accommodate hundreds of people. Dustin noticed that there were already groups of people sitting together, chatting lively. While there were a few tourists, most of the guests were martial artists who came for the treasure. "Over here!" Vanessa called out as she waved at them energetically. Dustin nodded in acknowledgment and led the others to her table. "I'm glad you could make it. Please take a seat," Emily greeted warmly. Nathan, who had appeared aloof earlier, perked up upon seeing Abigail and Azalea. He straightened up and tried to strike a handsome pose. "Allow me to introduce my friends, Abigail Robinson and Azalea Larson. "I hope you also don't mind having them, Ms. Hoyles." Dustin made a brief introduction. "Of course not. The more, the merrier. Please, have a seat." Emily smiled and gestured for them to sit."Thank you." Dustin nodde

"What?" Nathan was caught off guard by the sudden attack. He touched his forehead, and blood coated his fingers. Without his energy armor, his body was slightly stronger than average. "Who the fuck did this?" Nathan spun around and shouted angrily. "Damn it! How dare someone hurt Nathan!" Azure Mist's disciple stood up furiously. "Me." A man wearing flashy sunglasses arrived with two martial artists in tow. His calm demeanor suggested he didn't care about anyone else. "Do you know who I am? How dare you attack me!" Nathan snapped. "Well, I have no idea. Who are you?" The other man smiled, seeming amused. "Listen up! I'm Nathan Hoyles, one of Lester's Supreme Ten! I'm also known as the Little Dragon!" Nathan stated confidently. "Lester's Supreme Ten? The Little Dragon?" The man in sunglasses blinked before chuckling. "Big reputation you have there. I'm terrified."The two martial artists with him laughed simultaneously. "How dare you!" Angry, Azure Mist's disciple

Everyone was astonished to see Ken being thrown back. Nobody expected Dustin to be so bold. After all, this was Ken Shonde, the son of Regalswords' leader, and hitting Ian Shonde's son was risky. "Are you crazy? How could you hit Mr. Shonde?" Nathan sprung up, shocked. He had endured all the humiliation just now, yet Dustin slapped Ken without care. This would bring trouble to all of them. "Shit! This is bad!" Emily paled. She'd warned Dustin, hoping he would hold himself back, but he didn't. They'd be in trouble if Regalswords retaliated."How dare you hit Mr. Shonde! We'll kill you!" The two furious Regalswords martial artists began attacking Dustin. "Let me handle this!" Abigail grabbed her metal club and fought them. Her natural talent and Dustin's training made her far stronger than her opponents, especially when she used the staff combat technique. Soon, the two men, who had climbed the ranks through flattery instead of actual skill, fell to the ground. They were

"I'm in trouble now!" A wave of unease washed over Ian, the strongest martial artist in Lester, as he met Dustin's cold gaze. Ian couldn't help being worried about getting beaten up. "What are you waiting for, Dad? Tear him to pieces! "You have to teach him a lesson!" Ken seethed. "Shut up!" Ian slapped his son angrily. Ken staggered backward, his remaining teeth flying away as well. His eyes widened in disbelief as he asked, "W—why did you hit me, Dad?" He couldn't understand why he'd been smacked. His father usually wouldn't speak harshly to him, so what was happening? How could Ian slap him in public?"Don't you deserve to be disciplined after ruining Regalswords' reputation by bullying others? "I should teach you a lesson for embarrassing me!" Ian snapped, delivering another two slaps. "Pissed, he began kicking his son as well. Ken's pained screams filled the air under Ian's relentless attack. Ian was so violent that outsiders might have mistaken the two of

Dustin and the rest of them set out for the Black Forest early the next morning.Due to the terrible road conditions, driving was not an option. They could only walk there.Many martial artists had entered the forest since the day before. They were there to try their luck.However, the Black Forest was so huge that they lost all sense of direction when they entered. Most of them just walked around aimlessly, so it was difficult for them to find the treasure.About half an hour later, Dustin and the group finally got to the entrance of the Black Forest. They could see many people making their way in, one after another."Ms. Hoyles, do you know where the tomb is located?" Dustin asked."Well, I have no information about that yet."Emily continued dejectedly, "Everyone is just trying their luck now. Whoever finds the treasure first is the lucky one."Though it was a wild goose chase, they had no other choice.Their only advantage was that they were locals. Hence, they were more f
