An Understated Dominance (Dustin Rhys)

“Just make sure you’re ready. Let’s show everyone what the Celestial Alliance is capable of today.” Alicia was brimming with excitement.

“Exactly! If you can defeat Glenn, you’ll be the unrivaled champion!” Aurora chimed in, equally enthusiastic.

Fenley’s improved skills significantly boosted the Celestial Alliance’s morale. They all understood that today’s outcome would impact the guild’s future.

Their prestige would soar to new heights if he won the championship title. But if he lost to the Sword Union or the Mystic Arts Order, it would deliver a significant blow to their reputation.

“Unrivaled champion?” Fenley murmured to himself as his eyes gleamed with determination. He had longed for that title for years, and now the opportunity was right before him.

If he could defeat Glenn today, he would be the unrivaled champion among the younger generation. The thought ignited a fire within him as he subconsciously glanced at Glenn’s direction.

Glenn sensed something and turned his gaze to meet Fenley’s. The tension between them was electric as each sized the other up with fierce determination.

After three tense seconds, they both broke the stare and pretended nothing had happened. But beneath the surface, they had ignited the flames of rivalry.

The Celestial Alliance and the Sword Union had always been rivals. With Fenley and Glenn representing the best of each guild, comparisons were unavoidable. But since they had never fought, speculation about who was stronger ran wild.

Since the latest rankings on the Legendary List were released, Glenn had consistently overshadowed Fenley. As a result, public opinion began to lean toward the idea that Glenn was the stronger of the two.
