An Understated Dominance by Marina Vittori

"Dead... dead? How is that possible?"

"I never expected Elder Wood from the Celestial Alliance, a prominent figure in the martial world, to die at the hands of a beast. It's truly unbelievable!"

"Well, he's too arrogant and overbearing. Guess karma finally caught up with him."

The death of Acheron caused a stir throughout the crowd. Nobody expected such a mighty and arrogant figure to meet such an abrupt end.

Predator took him down, pinned him, and bit off his head.

What struck everyone as particularly unsettling was that Acheron didn't even have a chance to fight back.

"Elder. Elder Wood.?" Quincy, who had just arrived, stood frozen in place as he looked at the headless corpse before him.

Acheron had always been a figure of power and authority, towering above Quincy and many others. Within the Celestial Alliance, his status was unrivaled.

All the disciples from the Celestial Alliance who showed up for the tournament at Sacred Wrym Summit were under Acheron's supervision.

Yet, the once-resplendent figure now lay as nothing more than a headless body. It was truly a lamentable sight.

After feasting on Acheron's head, the beastly Predator lifted his head and unleashed a deafening roar. The sound was so intense that many martial artists winced in pain, instinctively covering their ears.

At the level of an ultimate grandmaster, even a simple sound wave attack was beyond the defense of ordinary martial artists.

After its roar, Predator's massive body seemed to weaken and collapse to the ground.
