The sight of the seriously injured and unconscious Declan left the crowd at a loss for words. The outcome before them wasbeyond their expectations.
Even though it was difficult to accept, they had to admit that Declan had indeed been defeated, much like Samson and Dexterbefore him.
As one of Oakvale’s ancient houses, a family renowned for its martial and military powers, not one family member among theyounger generation could hold their own against Dustin. This was undeniably an embarrassment.
“The outcome has been decided. Do we still need to continue with this duel?” Dustin smiled faintly, turning his attention towardGriffin and Dante.
He had deliberately chosen to secure victory with a single move so he could save his energy and intimidate the Fallons.
“Who exactly are you? How were you able to defeat Declan?” Dante furrowed his brows, and his expression grim. The Fallons’reputation had taken a serious blow after three consecutive defeats.
“Is it shocking that | defeated him? | believe many people in Oakvale are able to achieve a similar feat.”
“You-!” Dante was at a loss for words. Only gifted individuals could defeat Declan among his age group. How could a nobody likehim win against the Fallon family’s highly-trained prodigy?
Suddenly, Griffin stood up and applauded. With a smile, he said, ” Spectacular, truly spectacular. Today has been an eye-openerfor me!”
“Griffin?” Dante was stunned, turning back at Griffin in disbelief. The Fallons had just suffered a major embarrassment, yet hestill managed to smile. Had he lost his mind?
“Dustin, | never expected a young man like you to be a grandmaster. Remarkable. The Fallons happily acknowledge our defeat,”Griffin said candidly.
“What? This kid is actually a grandmaster?”Griffin's statement shocked everyone. They exchanged bewildered looks, looking utterly astonished.
Dustin appeared to be in his early twenties, yet he had already reached the level of a grandmaster. The level of talent hepossessed was simply terrifying!
“It's no wonder... So that was why Declan lost. It turned out that this kid is a skilled grandmaster.” Dante remarked,understanding now.
What happened just now was so sudden that he didn’t even have time to react. It was clear that nobody else would be able todefeat a semi-grandmaster other than a true grandmaster.novelbin
“Sir Fallon, you're too kind. | just got lucky,” Dustin replied modestly.
“Dustin, | really admire your skills and talent. | hope that you can join the Fallons as my son-in-law,” Griffin dropped a bombshell.“What?” Dustin was taken aback. Recruiting him was one thing, but the idea of being his son-in-law was simply outrageous.“Dad! What are you talking about?” Daphne blushed, feeling shy. She stole a quick glance at Dustin. Since his victory overDeclan, she had a completely different perspective of him.
She had always admired strong individuals, and Dustin’s strength and talent had earned her admiration. Coupled with hishandsome looks and demeanor, the thought of marrying a man like him seemed perfectly befitting her status.
“Dustin, the Fallons are one of the four ancient houses with a rich heritage and extensive influence in the area.“As long as you become my son-in- law, | guarantee you'll receive training and resources from the Fallons.“I'll even pave the way for you to rise to fame and stand at the peak of the world in a few years!” Griffin persuaded.
Although the Fallons had many youngsters, Declan was the only child they were truly proud of. However, compared to those top-tier geniuses, Declan fell significantly short and wasn’t worthy enough of carrying the Fallon family’s legacy.
