Chapter 1203"Stop!" Just as Dustin was about to kill Ronald, a booming voice yelled.
At the same time, an arrow shot out at an incredible speed, carrying tremendous force. With a loud clang, it accurately struckagainst the Celestial Sword.
"Hmm?" Dustin's body quivered, stopping his actions. At the same time, he cast a cold gaze below stage.Unbeknownst to him, Woody had already stood up, holding a powerful bow in his hand. He had fired that arrow."Sir Bolts, what do you mean by this?” Dustin frowned slightly.
"Dustin, you have won. Don't overdo it."
Woody's expression was cold. "Don't be so eager to burn bridges and make things difficult lest it backfires!"
"Sir Bolts, our duel was a fight to the death. Only one can emerge alive in the battle ring. That is the rule of the martial world,"Dustin said coldly.
"The Martial Arts Union establishes the rules of the martial world. | hold the highest position here and wield the ultimateauthority!" Woody's tone was extremely overbearing.
His intervention was motivated by Dustin's lack of gratitude. It was also because Ronald was still useful to him.As the leader of Balerno martial arts alliance, Ronald's position, status, and influence were unparalleled.
If he died, the world of Balerno martial arts would be plunged into chaos. At that point, the union would have to intervene torestore order.
"Sir Bolts, the rules of the martial world should be upheld impartially. We've already signed a waiver. Your protection of Ronaldseems biased," Dustin said. 1
“Enough with the nonsense! Sir Reeds is a prominent figure in the marital world and a pillar of our nation. The union will protect atalented man like him at all costs!" Woody retorted sharply.
"Sir Bolts, if I'm not mistaken, the union has clear rules against intervening in disputes. You won't be able to justify your actions,”Dustin reminded him.
"You want to try me? Very well!" Woody sneered.novelbin
He turned his attention toward Ronald. Then, he said loudly, "Sir Reeds, would you be willing to join the Martial Arts Union? Aslong as you agree, the union will back you up!"
Ronald lit up with joy at his words. It was as if he had grasped a lifeline. He nodded repeatedly. "| agree, | agree! I'll join theunion! I'm willing to work hard for the union!"
This was the best chance to save his life. As long as he had the union's backing, Dustin wouldn't dare to act recklessly, even ifhe had immense courage.
Even though he would be losing his freedom, it was a small sacrifice compared to losing his life.
"There! Did you hear that? Ronald is now a part of the union. It is only natural for US to protect him. Do you still have anyobjections?" Woody lifted his head slightly, looking proud.
So what if Dustin was talented, skilled, and powerful? He still had to bow in submission before the union.
"Sir Bolts, are you playing games with me?" Dustin's eyes narrowed slightly.
"The union has always acted benevolent to win the people over. Since you brought up rules, then let's talk about rules.
“Ronald has now joined the union. If you dare kill him, it will be a challenge to the union's authority! Consider the consequencesyourself!" Woody openly issued a threat.
The Martial Arts Union represented the power of the government. They stood above all guilds with overwhelming influence.Once someone became a wanted fugitive of the union, there would be no place to hide, no matter how vast the world was.That was one of the reasons why the union was so feared.
"It's fortunate that Sir Bolts is present today, otherwise, we would have been plunged into chaos." Theodore sighed in relief as hewatched Woody take control of the situation.
