An Understated Dominance (Dustin Rhys)

“Crystal, if you can advance to Group A and make it into the top ten, you’ll be famous. Then, the guild will pour all their resources into your training,” Miles said excitedly.

“I might have a chance to advance to Group A, but there’s no way I can make it into the top ten.” She shook her head.

She continued, “Most contestants in Group A are grandmasters. Who knows how many of the top ten are from the Heavenly Immortals list? With my current strength, I’m not even close to competing with those beasts.”

Crystal knew her limits. Even if she were against an early-stage grandmaster, her chances of winning were slim.

She knew competing with those beasts from the Heavenly Immortals was out of the question. After all, those who made it into that list were at least a late -stage grandmaster.

“Don’t be discouraged. Not all the elites from the Heavenly Immortals list will be competing. We can still try our luck. “Miles chuckled.

There weren’t many participants listed in the Heavenly Immortals in the Combat Tournament. Some were absent, while others had already fought in the earlier rounds.

After all, when two heavyweights clashed, some were bound to get hurt. Miles believed that the strongest contestants should fight each other first.

He knew they might have a shot to break into the top ten if they were lucky enough to face weaker or injured opponents. But these odds were slim.

“Let’s do our best.” Crystal didn’t say much. She was in a good mood and wasn’t looking for fame. Her main goal was to make friends in the tournament and broaden her horizons.
