An Understated Dominance by Marina Vittori

"Huh?"

Everyone stood in shock, their eyes fixed on the shattered bronze door. Mouths hang open, faces reflecting pure disbelief.

They never imagined that the supposedly indestructible bronze door, resistant even to explosives, could be obliterated by a single punch from Dustin.

There were no flashy moves, no grand display of power—just a simple, direct punch, and the bronze door shattered instantly. It was truly unbelievable.

"Wait... Seriously, how is this even possible?" Garrett's eyes widened in disbelief, his face revealing an indescribable shock.

Only moments ago, he witnessed dozens of people taking turns attacking the bronze door with weapons and explosives. Despite their relentless efforts, the door remained as it was. However, with just one punch, Dustin managed to shatter this seemingly indestructible door.

"Holy crap! Is he a monster?" Silva blurted out, her hand instinctively covered her mouth in shock. Her eyes were practically about to pop out.

Just moments ago, she was mocking Dustin, not giving him any credit. But reality had slapped her in the face.

She pondered whether this was the prowess of a grandmaster martial artist. It surpassed all her expectations by a mile.

"Whoa! Did he really just punch it into pieces? That's so badass, right?" Jackson exclaimed, his mouth wide open in amazement.

Earlier, when Dustin slashed the black serpent with his sword, it was terrifying, but Jackson thought it was the sharpness of the weapon that did the trick.

Jackson considered it logical for Dustin to be able to decapitate the black serpent with a single swing, given his divine sword and grandmaster martial artist strength.
