An Understated Dominance by Marina Vittori Chapter 1211
The Drunken Maniac’s presence brought about a major change of events. Just the previous second,
Dustin had been the collective enemy of the entire alliance. And the next second, he was nominated as
the alliance leader, to be revered by all.
For a moment, things seemed to be looking up for him. But Dustin remained expressionless. He looked
on coldly at all the martial artists who were acting respectfully to him.
There was not the slightest hint of excitement or joy in his eyes. It all looked ridiculously ironic to him
how things were.
Apart from a handful of righteous ones among them, most of the remaining martial artists were fence-
sitters who shifted their allegiance based on the circumstances.
They had just been clamoring to slay him moments ago. And now, they were all cheering for him. Their
instant change in attitude was ridiculous to him.
As for the position of the alliance leader, he had absolutely no interest in it. He had challenged Ronald

“My abilities are limited. I’m afraid I do not have what it takes to be the leader of the Balerno martial arts
alliance. You should pick someone else,” Dustin announced, turning down the position. Everyone was
stunned when they heard that. None of them had expected it from Dustin. Was he joking?
To be appointed as the alliance leader was an honor that many of them could only dream of ever
having. It was the ultimate pursuit of all martial artists.
It signified not only a person’s status and identity but also unparalleled authority. Countless leaders of
different guilds and martial experts longed for that ultimate position.
But not only did Dustin not appreciate the fortune that fell upon him, he even turned it down! Was he
even thinking straight?
“Grandmaster Rhys, you’re the only person in the whole of Balerno who’s fit to take the position.”
Emery was dumbfounded.
Had he not challenged Ronald for fame, power, and authority? He would be in a supreme position as
long as he took up the role! He could have everything he ever wanted!
“Yes, Grandmaster Rhys, you’re a front -runner for all of us young martial artists. No one else is better
fit to assume the position!” Josie persuaded. She greatly admired Dustin, so she hoped that he could
take the position.
He was now just one step away from it. All Dustin had to do was accept it, and the position would be
his. He would be respected by all. What was there not to like about it?
“I appreciate the gesture, but I have no interest in taking up the position of the alliance leader.”
Dustin shook his head lightly as his gaze fell on Emery. “Sir Williamson is capable and prestigious. He’s
more suited for the position than I am.
“I think you’re the best candidate for the position of the alliance leader.”
“Well…” Emery showed a torn expression on the surface when he was actually overjoved deep down.
Of course, he yearned to be the leader of the alliance! But Dustin’s performance earlier on had been
too remarkable.
Besides, he had an ultimate grandmaster, the Drunken Maniac, backing him up. No matter how great
Emery’s ambition for the position was, he dared not contend against Dustin for it.

Hence, he had gone with the flow and did Dustin a favor by nominating him as leader. What he had not
expected was that Dustin would reject it!
What a surprise!
“Hey, kid, the title of the alliance leader is not entirely useless. Are you sure you don’t want to give it
more thought?” the Drunken Maniac yawned as he asked Dustin.
“No. I have no time to busy myself with affairs of the martial world.”
Dustin could not be bothered to waste more time on pointless talking. He began rummaging through
Ronald’s dead body. Very soon, he found a gold bead.
It was the Celestial Pearl! It was a sacred relic of the martial world. Dustin would never let a treasure
like that slip past his fingers. After all, it could speed up his cultivation.
He was sure that with the aid of the Celestial Pearl, he would soon reach the level of ultimate
grandmaster. Then, he would finally be able to put his plan for revenge into fruition.
“Oh? What a treasure!” The Drunken Maniac was surprised to see the Celestial Pearl.
