An Understated Dominance by Marina Vittori

“Oh? It’s them?” Dustin was surprised and raised an eyebrow when he saw Aurora and Crystal step onto the battle ring.

He knew they had signed up for the tournament, but he hadn’t expected them to face off against each other. One was a skilled disciple of the Sword Union, while the other was the daughter of the Celestial Alliance’s guildmaster, Alloy.

This elite showdown between two major guilds would be quite a spectacle.

“Fenley, do you think Aurora has a shot at winning?” Alicia asked suddenly.

He shook his head and replied, “It’s hard to say.”

He continued, “Aurora’s opponent isn’t someone to underestimate. If I’m not mistaken, she’s a Sword Union disciple. Her sharp gaze and strong presence suggest her cultivation is quite advanced.”

“A Sword Union disciple? That sounds like trouble,” Alicia said, frowning.

Despite their small numbers, members of the Sword Union were carefully hand -picked elites. They shouldn’t be underestimated, regardless of age or gender.

In the past, there was a conflict between the Celestial Alliance and the Sword Union. This left many Celestial Alliance members with lingering psychological trauma. The mere mention of the Sword Union made them wary.

Aurora already stood out among her peers with her remarkable talent honed through dedicated training under Alloy. Alicia knew her sister could easily defeat ordinary martial artists, but confronting a disciple of the Sword Union presented a much tougher challenge.
