"Kid, you've certainly surprised me with your skills," Garrett admitted as he stood up slowly.
He continued, "But that doesn't justify your boldness in my presence with your limited skills." As he spoke, an imposing energysurged from within him.
The martial artists felt the air grow heavy, and each breath became a struggle."This grandmaster's strength is no laughing matter! Is this what Elder Mason is capable of?"
They couldn't help feeling a mix of awe and apprehension. Just a mere display of power had them rooted in place. After all, thatwas the might of a grandmaster martial artist.
Despite the tension in the air, Dustin stayed composed. His eyes locked on Garrett's with unwavering resolve."You've got talent, kid." Garrett stood with his hands clasped behind his back.
He added arrogantly, "I'm willing to offer you another chance. I'll let this incident slide if you swallow your pride and apologize. |might even make an exception and take you under my wing."
“What? Take him as a disciple?"
The others exchanged bewildered glances.
“How on earth did this kid manage to impress Elder Mason?"
“With Elder Mason as his mentor, this kid might start acting like he's above everyone else in the martial world.""Too bad | didn't luck into that golden opportunity.”
Murmurs filled the room. It was thick with envy and bitterness as everyone looked at Dustin.
Garrett Mason was one of the infamous Cosmos Demons and a grandmaster martial artist with unrivaled strength. His namecommanded respect and fear in the martial world.
He had strict standards when it came to taking on disciples. Unexpectedly, he made a rare exception and offered to mentor aninexperienced kid like Dustin.
"What are you waiting for, kid? Elder Mason's offering to take you as his disciple is a rare opportunity. Don't just stand there.Show him your gratitude now,” Lucian reminded Dustin.
Though Garrett's decision irked him, he dared not oppose it.
“Let me clarify two things," Dustin said calmly. "Firstly, | haven't done anything wrong, so apologizing is out of the question. Andsecondly, | have absolutely no interest in becoming anyone's disciple."
Huh?" Garrett's frown deepened, and his expression turned grim.
He had been sought after as a mentor for years but had never actively offered mentorship before. But when he finally extendedthe offer, he never expected Dustin to reject it.
Naturally, Garrett felt irked by the unexpected refusal.
"Kid, do you have any idea what you're saying? Being chosen by Elder Mason is like hitting the jackpot. | didn't expect you to beso ungrateful."
“Exactly! Getting the chance to be Elder Mason's disciple is something people would kill for. Who do you think you are to refuseit?"
"Geez! You're sitting on a goldmine and don't even realize it!"
Seeing Garrett's displeasure, the others burst into angry reproaches. Their expressions twisted with a sense of righteousindignation.
A grandmaster had extended the offer to take on a disciple, but it was turned down in front of everyone. If word of this got out, itwould undoubtedly become a subject of mockery.
Garrett began, "Do you have any idea who | am? People come to me all the time and beg to be my disciple, like I'm a God. ButI've never taken them seriously.
“Now, I'm offering you a chance to rise above the rest, but you're pushing it away. So, let me ask you one last time. Do you wantto be my disciple?"
His tone turned serious, and he gazed sharply at Dustin. As he spoke, the pressure emanating from him suddenly intensified.

The power of a grandmaster could cause havoc within arm's reach. Just the weight of this imposing presence was chilling."Whether others choose to be your disciple is up to them. But | have no interest in being one," Dustin replied firmly."Fine! You've gone too far now!" Garrett's expression darkened, and his eyes flashed with anger.

The force threw those nearby off balance. Some were sent flying, and their wailing echoed in the air.
When Garrett's internal energy collided with Dustin, it was deflected by an unseen force. Hence, Dustin was protected fromharm.
“Elder Mason, I'd advise against getting physical. Let's not escalate things unnecessarily. It wouldn't reflect well on you," Dustinwarned calmly.
He preferred to keep the situation from spiraling out of control. But if Garrett insisted on confrontation, Dustin was ready to standhis ground.
“Arrogant brat! I'll teach you some manners!" Enraged by Dustin's defiance, Garrett unleashed his internal energy and struckDustin from above.
