    Chapter 1190: Deputy Alliance Leader Eldric


    “Who are you to meddle in our affairs?” Asher’s expression darkened.


    “I am a disciple of the Zen Order, and I cannot stand by and watch such injustice unfold,” Serena


    dered with unwavering determination. “The Martial Alliance should be a beacon of fairness and


    justice. Grandmaster Dustin issued a challenge, and your Martial Alliance epted it. Yet now, even


    before Alliance Leader Ronald has arrived, you’ve chosen to corner and eliminate him in secret. Where


    is the integrity of the Martial Alliance? Where is its dignity?”


    “Exactly! If you want a fight, do it with honor. There’s no need for bullying just because you have more


    people.”


    “Grandmaster Dustin arrived here alone out of respect for the Martial Alliance. The least the Alliance


    can do is return that courtesy, have a fair showdown in the arena, and win the respect of everyone


    present.”


    “Are you all simply afraid that Grandmaster Dustin might pose a threat to Alliance Leader Ronald’s


    position, leading you to resort to these underhanded tactics?”


    At this moment, the assembled warriors voiced their criticisms and discontent.


    Challenging the leader of the Martial Arts Alliance was a rare event, and regardless of whether Dustin


    seeded or not, it showcased his courage. However, the actions of the Law enforcement were


    undeniably disappointing.


    “Silence! All of you, quiet down!” Asher’s anger red. “This Dustin killed my son. As a father, I seek


    justice for my child. What’s wrong with that?”


    “Seeking justice is one thing, but you should not abuse the power of the Martial Alliance for personal


    vengeance!” Serena responded passionately.


    “You… you… you insolent woman!” Asher was so furious that he trembled.


    He had arranged a trap to capture Dustin, but now a young girl with golden hair had suddenly appeared


    and was obstructing him in various ways.


    “Elder Asher, even if you seek vengeance, you should wait until after Grandmaster Dustin’s challenge


    is concluded. We cannot agree to your actions at this moment.”


    “That’s right! The challenge issued by the leader of the Martial Arts Alliance is sacred and invible.


    No matter how deep your grievances, you must set them aside for now.”


    With Serena leading the way, more and more warriors stood up to protest against this injustice.


    In truth, they were not particrly concerned about whether Dustin lived or died; rather, they were


    dissatisfied with the Asher andw enforcement’s high-handed and arbitrary conduct.


    This behavior was truly outrageous.


    If they didn’t speak out today, the Law enforcement would continue to act with impunity.


    What would happen if simr incidents urred in the future?


    “You… are you all trying to oppose the Martial Alliance?” Asher shouted through gritted teeth.


    “Elder Asher, please exercise restraint and avoid alienating the public,” amanding voice suddenly


    interjected.


    Subsequently, a middle-aged man in a long robe with a resolute countenance arrived on the scene as if


    carried by the wind.


    He had his hands behind his back, walked with an elevated yet unhurried gait, exuding a calm and


    rxed aura that was free-spirited.


    Each step covered an astonishing distance.


    While it appeared slow, he traversed the air andnded gracefully above everyone’s heads in the blink


    of an eye before descending gently, akin to an immortal descending to the mortal realm.


    The person who had arrived was none other than Eldric Thornfield, the deputy leader of the Martial


    Alliance.


    “We greet Deputy Alliance Leader Eldric!” All the warriors present saluted with cupped fists.


    Even Asher, who had been in an extremely irate state moments earlier, dared not utter another word.


    In the entire Martial Arts Alliance, aside from Alliance Leader Ronald Reeds himself, Eldric was the


    most formidable presence.


    Though Eldric usually kept a low profile and remained inconspicuous, no one dared to underestimate


    this deputy leader.


    After all, in the contest for leadership of the Martial Arts Alliance, Eldric had been evenly matched with


    Ronald Reeds and had ultimately been defeated by a single move.


    “Elder Asher, we are all guests here. Since Grandmaster Dustin issued a formal challenge, we should


    treat him with respect as hosts. What you are doing now is quite inappropriate,” Eldric chided.


    Implicitly, he had taken a clear stance on the matter.
