Chapter 240

"Oh, it's him."

Maximus smiled coolly. "It's really gutsy of a physician to join the batt

le. Looks like the Harmons have run out of candidates."

Dustin's appearance came as

a shock to the members of the Boulderthorn guild as well as Julie and her

group.

"Is he crazy? He can't even beat me. What makes him think he's capable of

fighting the Boulderthorn masters?

to Marsh was dumbfounded by Dustin's decision. Even Mr. Chapman was beate

n to a pulp in the ring. Where did a weakling like Dustin get the courage

to enter the ring?

"Hmph! He still wants to show off at this point in time. That's just cour

ting death." Julie chuckled gleefully. She looked forward to Dustin being

beaten up badly onstage.

"You're damn right! Even Otto knows better than to show off at this serio

us event. That dude is on a suicide mission!" The group of youngsters sco

ffed at Dustin, whom they believed was an attention–

seeker. An average person should never get involved in the battle of the

masters, for a tiny slip–up could cost one's life.

"Young man, are you sure you'd like to fight on behalf of the Harmon fami

ly? The hawk–

nosed elder suddenly questioned in a threatening voice. Everyone in the g

uild

could hear him well, even though he wasn't speaking loudly. The elder had

made it clear that anyone who represented the Harmons would be his enemy

.

"Well, at least I'm not as shameless as those who took the money but

refused to make good on their promise and even stabbed others in the back

!" Dustin taunted him mercilessly. "Even dogs are thankful to the hand th

at feeds them. I guess that somebody is worse than an animal."

The audience gasped and murmured upon hearing the remark. They were alrea

dy startled when Dustin went on the stage, but they were once again shock

ed by his audacity to mock the King of Kicks in public. Was Dustin Rhys p

laying with fire?

"You punk! Do you even hear what you're saying?" The old man's expression

crumbled.

"Why? Can't stand being criticized for your actions? You're just a greedy

, dishonest, and ungrateful bastard, aren't you?" Dustin jeered at him.

"You have a death wish!" The old man stared coldly at Dustin, but he was

stopped by Maximus before he could make a move. "Sir Cavaliere, we cannot

break the rules of the battle. You should leave any personal grudges for

post–battle."

"You punk! I sure hope you survive!" The hawk–

nosed old man scoffed and begrudgingly took his seat.

"Sir Cavaliere, calm down. That punk is certainly going to be dead today.

" Brody cackled and yelled in the direction of the ring. "Chunkster, smas

h him! I'll give you two more mutton legs if you cripple him!"

"Mutton leg! Mutton leg!" Chunkster giggled, his eyes shining bright when

he stared at Dustin, Before the referee even officiated the match, he ha

d hurled himself toward Dustin at high speed and with explosive energy li

ke an invincible human tank. Compared to Chunkster, Dustin was as thin as

a rail.

"That punk is going to die! Not even Mr. Chapman could beat Chunkster. Du

stin Rhys is going to be minced meat in the ring." Otto chuckled with ant

icipation.

Chapter 240

"He deserves it for being a show–

off." Julie crossed her arms on her chest and waited for ill fate to befa

ll

Dustin.

Just when everyone thought that it was a David and Goliath battle with a

clear winner, Dustin suddenly made

a move. He kicked against the ground and launched himself forward like an

agile serpent. When he was near Chunkster, ne quickly leaped into the ai

r, tapping his index and middle fingers on the Meridian point on top of C

hunkster's head with precision.

With a grunt. Chunkster immediately blacked out in the ring. Due to the m

omentum, his ball–

like figure accelerated for a good ten feet before coming to a stop and d

ropping off the platform with a thud. The

audience watched on, their jaws dropping on the floor.
