Dante glared at Dexter as he said, ” Today is a golden opportunity for you to redeem yourself.

“If you manage to defeat Dustin and overcome your inner demons, your martial arts cultivation will reach new heights!”

Dexter flinched. He wanted to retort but was too cowardly to do so. He could only beg, “Uncle Dante, I haven’t healed from my previous injuries. Why don’t you get someone else to go?”

“What do you mean someone else? You just suffered minor injuries. Go up now lest you embarrass us!” Dante rebuked.
