Chapter 187
Ten minutes later, the entire Horst Dojo was filled with pained groans. Dustin stood amidst the crowd, his presence awe-inspiring, commanding, and intimidating—akin to a god or demon. A few stunned onlookers stared with widened eyes, as if they had seen a ghost.
Everyone was taken aback by Dustin's strength. He had single-handedly swept through the entire dojo! It should be noted that these warriors were the dojo's elite, each capable of facing ten opponents alone. Yet, in a few minutes, he had defeated them all. This was absurd.
"F***! He's that strong? He's on a whole different level!" "My goodness, where did this demon come from?!"
Nigel and the others were speechless, especially a few girls who covered their mouths in shock. Dustin had faced off against a hundred soldiers, seemingly slaughtering them effortlessly. It was unbelievable.
"The Horst dojo is nothing," Dustin declared proudly, his gaze landing on Gabriel.
Gabriel removed his coat, revealing a muscular physique and a long sword at his waist. "I have to admit, kid, you're pretty good. I underestimated you earlier. But it ends here. Today, I'll personally take your life!" He slowly drew his sword, a cold light flashing around him.
Nigel, excited, exclaimed, "Sir Gabriel is unleashing his full strength! This kid is doomed! Have you heard of the Hundred Immortals?"
"Of course! It's a combat power ranking list in the martial world. In Dragonmarsh, millions practice martial arts, but only one hundred make the list. These individuals are the cream of the crop, the most outstanding top-tier experts!"
Nigel arrogantly lifted his head. "Good to know. Let me tell you, he's one of the top ten."
"What? Top ten of the Hundred Immortals?" The others were shocked. They knew Gabriel was powerful, but not this powerful. Making the list was extremely difficult; being among the top ten was even more so. Any of the top ten could easily conquer all the martial arts dojos in Swinton.
"It seems I underestimated Sir Gabriel's terrifying power. He truly is a martial arts master born into a martial arts family!" "This poor guy… he actually provoked Sir Gabriel. He's looking for death!" The onlookers were full of surprise and pity, looking at Dustin as if he were already dead.
"I heard Sir Gabriel's sword is faster than a bullet, and no one can block it. Is it true?" a girl in yellow asked.
"Of course! His sword is famous for its speed, especially his ultimate move, 'Eclipse Strike.' No one has ever escaped it alive!" Nigel boasted.
"Wow, that's amazing! I wonder if we'll witness it today?" The girl in yellow looked on with anticipation.
"Quick, look! Sir Gabriel is about to move!"
As the crowd discussed, Gabriel's aura intensified, exuding intense pressure.
"Kid, it's an honor to die by my sword! Now, let me show you what it means to break all laws with a single sword strike!" He leaped from the stage, crouching slightly before springing forward like an arrow towards Dustin.
"Eclipse Strike!" Gabriel roared, unleashing his ultimate move. The air filled with the glint of the sword and the howling wind.
"Here it comes! Sir Gabriel's most powerful sword strike!" "No wonder it's his ultimate move! It's so cool!" "No one can survive the 'Eclipse Strike'!"
The crowd shouted in admiration and shock. Gabriel and his sword merged into a rainbow of light, piercing towards Dustin's chest.
Just as the killing blow seemed imminent, a light "ding" sounded. Two fingers appeared, gripping the sword. With a simple twist, the sword snapped in half.
"Clang!"
The wind ceased, and the light dispersed.
Gabriel was stunned. "My famous move… blocked like that? With just two fingers?" he thought.
Nigel's face turned pale. "How is this possible?!"
