An Understated Dominance Novel (Dahlia & Dustin) by Marina Vittori updated 2025-26 - An Understated Dominance Chapter 2298

An Understated Dominance Chapter 2298 [4595 – 4596] – Both Glenn and Fenley were among the top talents in the world. Coupled with the competitive relationship between the Sword Union and Celestial Alliance, the two naturally wanted to compete.

Fenley had a breakthrough in his cultivation before the competition, so he was very eager to fight with Glenn now.

On the other hand, Glenn would not back down in the face of provocation.

But compared to Fenley’s fighting spirit, Glenn was more indifferent. In fact, he, who was at the top of the Legendary List, no longer took his peers seriously.

Except for Dustin, who was on par with Glenn and had been missing for many years, Glenn’s current targets were all the people on the Astonishing World List. Because the Astonishing World List represented the strongest combat power in the world, he needed to defeat one top power after another, climb over one mountain after another, and finally embark on the road to heaven!

As for what kind of scenery was behind him, he never cared and had no intention of looking back.

“Ah~!”

Suddenly, Easton, who was wearing a tattered Taoist robe, stood up and stretched, just about to block the sight of Glenn and Fenley.

Glenn took the lead in retracting his gaze, sat next to Cyrus, and began to close his eyes and rest, no longer paying attention to others.

Fenley also quickly returned to normal. Since Glenn would come to participate in the competition, the two of them would meet sooner or later, so there was no need to rush. His goal was to defeat Glenn openly in the finals and win the championship successfully!

By then, not only would his personal honor reach its peak, but the Celestial Alliance would also be proud and no longer questioned.

“Alas… They are all not easy to mess with. I really shouldn’t participate in this competition,” Easton looked at Glenn, then at Fenley, shook his head, and sighed.

Easton didn’t have the heart to compete; he just wanted to live a comfortable life, eating and waiting to die every day. But the mountain gate forced him to participate, and he couldn’t refuse even if he wanted to.

Moreover, he, who was highly expected, could not fish in troubled waters. Not to mention the top three, he had to at least enter the top eight to explain to his father, Katy; otherwise, he would be punished after returning.

He only hoped that he would not draw Glenn and Fenley, two tough guys, at the beginning; otherwise, it would be too unlucky.

“Look at the old man! He’s from Celestial Alliance!”

At this time, the crowd became agitated again.

From the southeast, a middle-aged man with white clothes, sword-like eyebrows, star-like eyes, and a handsome appearance walked over leisurely with several old men.

The man in white had a smile on his face and a noble temperament. While walking, he nodded to some familiar people from time to time, without any airs. The person who came was Alloy Marshall, the leader of Celestial Alliance. After that, several elders of Celestial Alliance followed.

Compared to Cyrus’s coldness and seriousness, Alloy was quite the opposite and seemed very approachable.

No matter who he was facing, he would greet them with a smile, without any arrogance at all.

“Hello, Sect Master Marshall!”

“Hello, Sect Master Marshall!”

“……”

At this moment, many sect leaders and their disciples stood up and saluted to show their respect.

The disciples of Celestial Alliance were all over the world, and their influence was far greater than that of all other sects.

In the eyes of many people, Celestial Alliance was the undisputed number one sect in Dragonmarsh. Even though Sword Union had the potential to catch up, it was still far inferior to Celestial Alliance in terms of popularity and influence.

Moreover, unlike Sword Union, which was unattainable, Celestial Alliance had contacts with many sects and even often served justice for some weak forces.

It was no exaggeration to say that nearly half of the forces in the underworld were connected with Celestial Alliance.

So when Alloy appeared, many sects present expressed their respect.

It was a completely different reaction from when they faced Cyrus before.

“Master Marshall, I haven’t seen you for a long time. How are you doing?”

When Alloy approached, Katy immediately stood up to greet him with a bright smile, as if they were meeting old friends again. “Thanks to Master Marshall for his concern, I am very free. I just feed fish and play with birds every day.”

Alloy smiled and said, “If you have time one day, why don’t you come to my humble home to chat? I have recently collected some famous paintings and calligraphy, but due to my lack of talent and knowledge, I cannot understand the true meaning of them. Please appreciate them together with me.”

“I am honored,” Katy was not polite and nodded with a smile.

The two chatted with each other and became very familiar with each other. After exchanging pleasantries, they finally sat down.

“Oh? Isn’t this Master Hadley? I heard that you were in seclusion. I didn’t expect you to be here in person today.”

Alloy seemed to have noticed Cyrus Hadley on the other side and greeted him with a smile.

Cyrus replied indifferently, “Of course, our Sword Union will not be absent from such a grand event. However, you, who will not do anything without profit, are you trying to take this opportunity to recruit disciples for your Celestial Alliance?”

Alloy smiled and said, “A good bird chooses a tree to inhabit. If those young talents really want to join Celestial Alliance, I will welcome them.”

“You really haven’t changed at all. You are still so picky.” Cyrus was quite disdainful.

Alloy said, “I can’t compare with you, Master Hadley. Each disciple is carefully selected. It’s a pity that the Sword Union is short of resources and can’t afford to support these geniuses. I remember that this year, several disciples of the Sword Union turned to our Celestial Alliance because of unfair treatment. I wonder what you think?”

Alloy didn’t change his face.

“Humph! They are just some crooked melons and jujubes. What’s wrong with giving them to you? My Sword Union never needs waste.” Cyrus said coldly.

Unconsciously, the tension between the two became more and more intense, to the point where both sides began to be hostile to each other and looked like they would start fighting at the slightest disagreement.
