Dustin walked forward.
Step by step, Dustin walked toward the towering platform where Gary was.
Gary remained seated.
He smirked as he watched Dustin approach.
The soldiers of the Western Forces wanted to stop Dustin, but Gary waved them off.
He did not seem concerned about the threat Dustin may pose to him.
It was not long before Dustin reached the base of the platform.
With a light leap, he soared through the air and landed gracefully on the twenty-foot-high platform as if he were weightless.
The two men faced each other at such a close range for the first time.
Their eyes met, and the tension between them crackled like a storm.
Gary grinned.
Boom! In an instant, a surge of powerful energy erupted from his body.
It was overwhelming and terrifying.
Gary bore the four-star insignia and commanded the formidable Western Forces of a hundred thousand soldiers.

He was not an ordinary man.
Only when his immense power burst forth, the soldiers looked on in shock.
Their leader had been hiding much of his power.
Even after a decade of leading them through battles and conquests, Gary had never revealed his true prowess.
Today, he unleashed it in the face of a young man.
Bang! Bang! Bang! The wooden railings around the platform shattered into splinters.
They were unable to withstand the immense surge of energy.
Even the platform trembled violently and swayed as if on the verge of collapse.
An Intermediate Martial King… Dustin murmured and narrowed his eyes.
Among martial artists, those who reached the Martial Saint level were rare.
They earned the title of Master and were called Legendary Martial Saint.
But this was not the pinnacle for martial artists.
There were different levels to Martial Saints.
Someone like the top fighter of Honora, John, who had just reached the realm of Martial Saint, could only be considered a Novice Martial Saint.
Gary was obviously much more powerful than John.
Hence, he was an Intermediate Martial Saint.
Thats right.
Thanks to the Fox family massacre years ago, I gained access to superior martial techniques, and my prowess took a big leap.
My power has long achieved the level of an Intermediate Martial Saint, Gary said and chuckled coldly.
This was the confidence behind his willingness to let Dustin get so close to him.
What did it matter if Dustin had defeated John? Are you surprised? His tone was laced with self-satisfaction as he waited for Dustins reaction.
To his disappointment, Dustin remained calm and impassive.
He raised a single finger.
One move, he said.
What? Gary frowned.
I only need one move to kill you.
Garys face twisted with rage.
Clash! The battle erupted in an instant.
Gary drew a massive Onyx Iron Blade and swung it down onto Dustins head.
The strike was precise and intimidating.
It unleashed an overwhelming surge of killing intent.
Slash! The platform gave way under the force of the strike and collapsed into a cloud of dust and debris as both men dropped to the ground below.
The soldiers were stunned.
They had never seen anything like this… As the dust settled, Garys face faltered.
His blade was meant to split Dustins skull.
But what he saw sent chills down his spine.
The blade had stopped just three inches from its target and could not move it forward.
Dustin had caught it with his bare hands! Garys composure finally cracked.
Dustins strength was far beyond anything he had imagined.
Ahhh!!! With a roar into toured all his energy eve into the Onyx Iron Blade and forced wn with all his might.

Snap! The Onyx Iron Blade shattered.
Gary was left holding only a broken hilt.
He stared at it in disbelief.
It was a blade forged from Onyx Iron and could even deflect bullets…
