An Understated Dominance

Chapter 232
The King of Kicks made Mr. Wangley spurt out blood without even using half his strength. If he did it with full strength, Mr. Wangley would probably die on the spot.
Were experts from the top tenths of The Hundred Immortals so scary?
“Brilliant! King of Kicks, you’ve just blown our minds!” Quentin was surprised at first, then put up a smile and blew the King of Kicks with flattery. He thought that if he could be on good terms with masters like the King of Kicks, he could solve problems easily in the future with his help.
“Mr. Wangley, are you okay?” Natasha frowned slightly. One of their allies was hurt before the battle even started. She thought that the King of Kicks had gone too far.
“I’m okay.” Mr. Wangley wiped off the blood at the corner of his mouth and paid his respects. “King of Kicks, I expected no less from you. I concede defeat from the bottom of my heart.”
“At least you know your limits.” The old man raised his head with a sense of arrogance and defiance.
“Alright. Everyone, time to go back and prepare. We cannot afford to lose tonight’s battle!”
Everyone left right after Natasha gave the order.
As Boulderthorn intentionally spread the news of the battle. Williams Dojo was already crowded with people at 7 pm. Everyone interested in martial arts came to watch the battle. People were dueling at the battle ring before it started. They were excited about the battle. Dustin and Ruth were the first to enter the dojo. They sat and waited at the seats.
“Rhys, why are you here?” Dustin heard a familiar voice beside him. He turned and saw Julie approaching him with a crowd of young people.
“You’re here. Why can’t I?” Dustin said calmly.
“Julie, who is this?” a muscular man beside Julle asked.
“Otto, this is my ex–cousin–in–law. My cousin dumped him since he’s useless.” Julie demeaned Dustin intentionally.
“Oh, I see.” Otto sized Dustin up and mocked, “Such slim arms and legs, what a sissy. No wonder no woman wants him.”
“If I’m a sissy, are you a chimpanzee? Dustin asked coolly.
“Chimpanzee?” Everyone was stunned by the statement and looked at Otto. He was a hairy man with tanned skin. He actually did look like a chimpanzee. However, they recovered from the thought quickly.
“Hey! What do you mean? Otto is such a line–looking man–he doesn’t look like a chimpanzee at all!”
“Do you know who he is? He’s the kickboxing champion of our city! Show some respect!”
“That’s right! Look at your arms and legs; Otto could easily break them!” The crowd clamored aggressively.
Otto put on a gloomy face due to Dustin’s comment. “You! You savage! Stop being a smart mouth. Let’s have a battle and fight like a man!”
“I’m not interested in that,” Dustin rejected without hesitation.
“Not interested? I bet you are afraid,” Otto sneered, “Don’t worry. I won’t be beating you to death since we can learn from each other from fighting.”
Dustin replied nothing. Julia macked, “Rhys, aren’t you cocky? Why are you afraid of Otto? You don’t even dare to fight with him.”
“I can just fight with one of my hands if you are afraid. Or only with my legs, if you like. How is it? I dare you!” Otto provoked.
“Such a coward! He doesn’t dare to fight with Otto even if he’s only fighting with his legs!”
“Definitely! What a shame to us men!”
“Why don’t you just be a woman?”
The crowd of young people laughed as if they had just listened to a hilarious joke.
