Chapter 1933

Chapter 1934  Upon encountering the ancient tome, the three young men quivered with  anticipation.  “The Dragon Tome! It must be the legendary Dragon Tome of the Lannister  family!”  Wyatt exclaimed with fervor, his voice echoing with excitement.  781  Gwain, however, took a more measured approach, intentionally challenging  Finley. “Finley, can we truly trust your word? Don’t back out and bring  reinforcements if you lose.”  “Hmph, I have served the old master for fifty years. My word is as solid as the  decree of the Summerton Palace,” Finley declared with conviction before  adding a stipulation. “If you win and take the scripture, I hope you will leave  quietly and not cause further disturbances in Summerton Palace.”  Hank and Wyatt exchanged wary glances, feeling that the process was  177  09:47 Sat, Oct 26  Chapter 1934 The Victor Emerges  suspiciously smooth.  3  78%  #  Gwain dismissed their concerns, agreeing with unwavering resolve, “Fine. If I  lose, I will never mention the Dragon Tome again. If fortune favors me and I  win, I trust Mr. Ford will honor his promise.”  “As an old man, I have always adhered to my word,” Finley replied with  solemnity. “Now, will the three of you attack together, or shall you fight one by  one?”  You’re d*mn bold!  Hank and Wyatt couldn’t help but chuckle. It was the first time anyone had  dared to speak to their leader, Mr. Gwain, in such a manner.  “No need.”  Gwain stepped forward with an air of pride, his posture dignified. “I will face  Mr. Ford’s skill alone. Should I be defeated, I will leave without protest.”  “Good.”  2/7  09:47 Sat, Oct 26  Chapter 1934 The Victor Emerges  Finley rose, and with a swift motion of his hands, a powerful wave of energy  surged through the air, stirring the surrounding winds into a tempestuous  frenzy.  Hank and Wyatt watched in awe, recognizing that Finley’s inner strength far  surpassed that of a mere martial master. He was undoubtedly a figure of  immense renown in the martial world.  “Let us engage in a gentlemanly duel. Please, proceed.”  Finley gestured with a graceful sweep of his hand.  “Please.”  Though younger, Gwain’s pride prevented him from making the first move.  Since Finley held back, he would follow suit.  Having navigated countless battles, Finley had encountered many warriors.  He saw Gwain’s arrogance not as a unique trait but as a potential flaw in  combat.  09:47 Sat, Oct 26  Chapter 1934 The Victor Emerges  Seeing Gwain’s reluctance to initiate, Finley seized the chance and launched  his assault.

Watching from the sidelines, Hank and Wyatt broke into a cold sweat on  Gwain’s behalf.  Despite Finley’s relentless barrage of ten attacks, he failed to overcome  Gwain. The momentum of the battle soon shifted.  Gwain found a crack in Finley’s defenses and delivered three consecutive  strikes with precision.  To a battle–hardened veteran like Finley, Gwain’s techniques were not only a  marvel to behold but also a formidable challenge. Each move was both  elegant and lethal, with a deadly intent behind every strike.  “Well done.‘  4/7  Chapter 1906 The Vetor Emerges  “Mr. Gwain is extraordinary.”  Wyatt and Hank cheered with exhilaration as the battle swung in Gwain’s  favor.  Yet, Finley was far from being an easy opponent. Even against Gwain, one of  the most formidable martial artists of his generation, Finley remained  steadfast through ten more exchanges, refusing to concede defeat.  The temple trembled under the force of their combat, its very foundation  seeming to shudder with every blow.  At the critical moment, Finley unleashed his ultimate technique–The Third  Style of the Six Sun Palm.  Unwilling to be overshadowed, Gwain countered with the Lannister family’s  most lethal skill, the Merged Finger, aiming to overwhelm Finley in a head–on  clash.  Finley, understanding the peril of a confrontation, chose to withdraw at the  last moment, narrowly avoiding mutual destruction.  09.47 Sat, Oct 26  Chapter 1924 The Victor Emerges  It was as if Gwain had anticipated this maneuver, swiftly seizing the opening  to grip Finley’s throat with lightning speed.  “Well done.”  “Mr. Gwain has emerged victorious.  Wyatt and Hank breathed a sigh of relief. For a moment, they had doubted  whether Gwain could secure victory, but his innate talent had once again  surpassed their expectations, turning a seemingly impossible battle into a  resounding triumph.  What they failed to realize was that Finley had intentionally held back his final  move. Had he not, he could have delivered a devastating blow before  Gwain’s grip tightened.  “Mr. Ford, will you honor your promise now?”  Gwain’s gaze was unwavering, fixed coldly on the elder.  Chapter 1944 The Victor Emerges  78%  He cared not for the reasons behind Finley’s restraint; to him, victory was the  sole measure of success. The duel had been won, and that was final.  “Hahaha. Indeed, youth breeds genius.” Finley laughed heartily. “I concede  dofoat. The tome is rightfully yours. Take it, for it belongs to your family.”  The outcome had unfolded with unexpected smoothness.  Gwain took possession of the ancient tome, though his eyes remained  vigilant with suspicion.  He meticulously examined the venerable text, but after a thorough  inspection, he found no deceit or hidden flaws.  09:47 Sat, Oct 26 U
