An Understated Dominance by Marina Vittori

When the spectators heard the match was about to begin, the excitement reached a fever pitch. Half of them cheered for Fenley while the other half chanted Glenn’s name.

Both were the Chosen Ones, and their popularity was undeniable. Everyone had been waiting for their face-off in the battle ring.

Though Fenley ranked slightly below Glenn on the Legendary List, his fame and influence as the successor to the Celestial Alliance’s guildmaster outshined Glenn’s. Ultimately, the question of who was stronger could only be answered in the ring.

“I’ve been waiting for this day, Glenn.” Fenley stared at him intently. His voice was powerful and commanding.

He continued, “Others say I’m not your equal, but I refuse to believe it. Today, we’ll find out whether your sword is faster or if my Four Elements of God’s Technique is superior.”

“The moment you said that, you’ve already lost. Your doubt shows you lack the confidence to defeat me,” Glenn replied calmly. If this were a fight-to- the-death match, his opponent would already be dead.

“Hmph! Enough with the nonsense! Today, you’ll witness the true power of my Four Elements of God’s Technique.”

With a shudder, Fenley’s internal energy burst forth. Behind him, a massive ethereal divine spirit materialized that radiated an intimidating presence.
