Chapter 315
“Gosh, who is that kid? He’s quite something to challenge Tatum in public! Is he asking for death?”
“He is gutsy but not the sharpest tool in the shed.”
Dustin’s presence became the talk of the town. No one had expected any martial artist to have a
showdown with Tatum at the last minute.
“Hey! Why did you go up there? Are you mad? Get down here now!” After a slight pause, Abby loudly
called out to Dustin. In her eyes, he was nothing more than a clueless young man who did not know his
place.
“What is that dude doing? Doesn’t he know that he’s up against one of The Heavenly Immortals, Tatum
Thunders? He’ll die in Tatum’s hands!” Ralph shook his head forlornly and looked on as though he
could predict Dustin’s demise. After all Ralph wasn’t strong enough to take on Tatum, and he did not

“Hmph! That reckless thing! How dare he insult Tatum? He’ll meet his end!” Brody and the others
started cackling with glee. Not only would Tatum tid Boulderthorn of traitors like Maximus, but he would
also get Dustin, the thorn in the flesh, out of the way.
“You little jerk! Who are you, and how dare you stand in my way?” Tatum scrunched up his eyes with a
menacing look. So far, no one had dared to stop him from taking the lives of his targets.
“Tatum! He’s Dustin Rhys! Slay him!” Brody suddenly yelled at the platform.
“What? Dustin Rhys?” There was an audible gasp from the audience, who had initially taken Dustin to
be a show-off, only to realize that he was the martial art genius who had gained fame recently.
“How could that be? He’s Dustin Rhys!” Abby froze up and found it hard to believe that the dark horse
she had been talking about was by her side all this time.
“Good gracious! I almost missed the hidden gem!” Ralph was similarly stupefied. If Dustin was capable
of defeating Joshua Hummer and confident enough to go for a battle with Tatum Thunders, he must at
least be a martial artist who had achieved divinity. Ralph, upon realizing that Dustin must be way more
advanced than him in the practice, felt rather embarrassed for offering to take Dustin under his wing.
“Had I known he was Dustin Rhys, I would have gotten on his good side just now!”
“Damn right! We missed our shot!” Ralph’s martial art colleagues were full of regrets upon learning the
truth. It was common knowledge that the existence of a martial arts genius would give any guild a
major boost, and this was especially true for the relatively small guilds. They’d enter a golden age if
they produced a martial arts genius.
“Oh, kid, you’re Dustin Rhys?” Tatum snickered. “You are digging your own grave! As payback for.
killing Joshua, you will not be spared today!”
Joshua Hummer said something along those lines as well. But he’s dead now,” Dustin commented
without flinching.

with me! People like you have no idea how scary an individual from The Heavenly Immortals could be!”
“Scary?” Dustin merely scoffed. “More like ludicrous. You thought you were something, but you’re just a
frog in the well.”
“What did you just say?” Tatum’s expression hardened. He had never been looked down upon ever
since he gained fame.
“I was being kind, describing you as a frog in the well. Turns out you’re just a worm in the apple- rotten
and foul!” Dustin didn’t hold back at all, and his insult evoked a collective exclamation from the
audience, who didn’t expect him to be so rude and fearless from the start. Everyone shuddered at the
thought of provoking Tatum Thunders, as that would be inviting death.
“Oh, great! Look at you, the stubborn one, not knowing you’re close to death. You’ll pee your pants
when you’re staring at death!” Tatum, now enraged, hurled a punch in the air that morphed into a
translucent shadow.
