Chapter 135
"Holy shit! What just happened?"
The crowd was once again awestruck, gazing at the broken swords and the two women lying on the floor. They initially thought Dustin was doomed, but no one expected the Boulderthorn girls to be defeated after that face-off. This outcome shocked everyone.
"This kid wasn't all talk?" Oliver's eye twitched, his face full of shock. Previously, he could argue they weren't prepared for the attack. But this time, a clear skill disparity was evident.
"So you do have some tricks up your sleeve. No wonder you dared to cause trouble here," Troy narrowed his eyes, a playful smile curving his lips. Although Anna and Emma were no match for Troy's skills, they were strong enough to defeat a normal fighter. Dustin's easy victory spoke volumes about his abilities, even if it wasn't much for Troy.
"Mr. Williams! Didn't you say that wouldn't be a problem?" Tina exclaimed, her disfigured face making her look like a malicious demon.
"Just a slight miscalculation. But no worries, this fellow wouldn't be able to do much against Troy and me!" Oliver laughed awkwardly, explaining himself.
"Don't worry, Ms. Hummer. I will avenge you!"
Troy stepped forward, staring into Dustin's eyes. "I admit, you have some skills. But too bad you're facing me today! I'll give you one last chance. Kneel down and beg for mercy now, and I might spare your life."
"Punk! Did you hear that? Hurry up and kneel! Otherwise, you'll be obliterated by Troy!" Oliver added.
"Really? Give me all you've got," Dustin replied calmly.
"Bastard! You really can't catch a hint! Don't you know who Troy is? He's the Lightning Fist of Boulderthorn, undefeated in battle!" Oliver boasted confidently.
The crowd erupted after hearing those words.
"What? Is he really the Lightning Fist, Troy Chapman?!" "Oh my God! I can't believe even the Lightning Fist is here! This is getting interesting!" "What's Lightning Fist? Is he great?" "He's not only one of the elites in Boulderthorn, he's at the top! He could take on a hundred men at once. Isn't he great?" "There are only a few people in Swinton who can match the Lightning Fist's skills. Looks like this kid is meeting his end!"
After learning Troy's true identity, the crowd began praising him. The spectators had anticipated an ordinary fight, but only with the emergence of a top fighter like Troy did they realize the bout's true potential.
Troy's chin lifted with newfound arrogance as he basked in the crowd's adoration. He clearly enjoyed the admiration.
"Punk! Weren't you so confident just now? Why are you silent now? Are you scared?" Oliver mocked. While his own abilities might not be as remarkable, his senior, Troy, was undoubtedly a top-notch fighter. He had trained his entire life and mastered energy honing. His skill was second only to the grand master himself; no one in Swinton could match him.
"What's a Lightning Fist? I've never even heard of it," Dustin remained unfazed.
These words again drove the crowd wild.
"My goodness! Does he not treasure his life? He dared insult the Lightning Fist's name!" "He's clearly unaware of his limits! He can't even comprehend how strong the Lightning Fist is!" "What a reckless idiot! Thinking he knows everything! Let's see how he faces death later!"
All eyes were fixed on Dustin, who seemed to have earned the crowd's scorn and contempt.
"Punk! You'll face the consequences for those words!" Troy's expression turned cold. He was still acting recklessly even after learning Troy's identity. How foolish!
"I don't care who you are. You better leave now or I won't hold back," Dustin's eyes burned with rage as he stared Tina down. The others in the room weren't worthy of his attention; he remained focused solely on Tina.
"Mr. Chapman! Kill him!" When Tina met Dustin's gaze, she was terrified. A chill ran down her spine. She only hoped he could get rid of Dustin as soon as possible.
"Punk! Since you want to die so badly, I'll fulfill your wish!" Troy flexed his muscles, letting out a yell that ripped his shirt, revealing his chiseled physique. His impressive muscles and swift movements caused some ladies to swoon.
"Today, I'll show you what it's like to be the Lightning Fist!"
Troy closed the distance quickly, leaping into the air and extending his arms like a hawk, ready to strike.
Chapter 135
"How majestic! How astonishing!" the crowd thought.
"Die!" Troy spun, head aimed downward, and struck Dustin's head with a powerful punch. The spectators were impressed by Troy's pose.
"How handsome!" "He's so majestic!" "Ms. Hummer, did you see that? That's Troy's signature move, the Lightning Fist! One punch could break mountains!" Oliver explained proudly. "It would be best if he could kill him with one slap!" Tina said with a sardonic smile. "One punch is definitely enough to kill him!" "This fellow should be proud to die by the Lightning Fist's hand!"
The guests shook their heads, convinced Dustin's fate was sealed. After all, he was facing a full-blown punch from the Lightning Fist himself. In Swinton, how many people could stop that kind of punch?
"You're just all show!" Dustin's voice was cold and unwavering as he stood his ground. Without hesitation, he retaliated with a punch that caught Troy off guard.
"Boom!"
Their fists collided with a loud bang. Dustin hadn't moved an inch, but the ground beneath him shattered. Troy, on the other hand, cried out in pain as his fist bled. He was sent flying across the room at lightning speed, landing heavily against the wall, blood spurting from his mouth.
Before Troy could react, Dustin was already in front of him, delivering another punch. His moves weren't flashy, but they were deadly.
"Please spare me!" All the color drained from Troy's face as he screamed in horror. With a loud "Thud," he knelt on the ground.
