Chapter: 1169
"Dustin, there’s a physical combat test left." Patrick reminded.
"Alright, then. Let’s get it done with." Dustin nodded and led everyone to where the fifth test was being held.
The final test was physical combat. Contestants had to pass the previous four tests to reach the fifth test.
The rules of the fifth test were simple. Each contestant needed to have hand-to-hand combat with two powerful invigilators. Then, the invigilators would rate the contestant based on their performance.
"I’m here for the test, please," Dustin walked up to the battle ring and politely told the two invigilators.
"Um…" The invigilators shared a look and shook their heads.
"You can advance to the next level without taking the test."
"I can?" Dustin was surprised.
"We saw your earlier performance. Honestly, we’re no match for you. You can just continue to the next level." One of the invigilators grimaced.
"You have potential. I’m sure you’ll become a dark horse in the Knighthood Society Tournament." The other invigilator praised Dustin.
Dustin had broken the records for the first four tests. They were ashamed to admit they were far weaker than him.
"Thank you for going easy on me," Dustin thanked them with a smile and walked off the platform.
It was good that the invigilators avoided confronting him, or they’d have been beaten into a pulp by now.
"What the hell? It’s unfair that he can advance to the next level without taking the test!"
"What else can they do? He’s so strong even the invigilators are afraid of him."
"If it were me, I wouldn’t fight him either. There’s no way I can take a punch that’s over 100 thousand pounds."
"He isn’t just strong. His speed, defense, and internal energy are impeccable. We should respect how powerful he is."
The martial artists present gossiped about Dustin, their eyes filled with respect. After all, the martial world always respected the strong. A person’s background didn’t matter as long as they were powerful enough.
"The test is over. Let’s go eat." Dustin ruffled Scarlet’s hair and led the others out. He did not spare those from Boulderthorn a glance.
"Fuck! That bastard ruined our reputation!" Davon snarled.
"I wish Jared was here. He’d beat that brat up easily!" Gianna humphed.
Because of Jared’s reputation, he proceeded to the final test without going through the first five tests. That was why he wasn’t there with them. There was no way Dustin would be talking to them so arrogantly otherwise.
"I’m not happy with you, Dominic. Why didn’t you give it a go earlier?" Desmond suddenly snapped.
"What?" Dominic was taken aback.
"Are you joking? That guy pushed the lever to 100! Why would I go in?"
