Upon encountering the ancient tome, the three young men quivered with
anticipation.

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

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.”

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.

combat.
Chapter 1934 The Victor Emerges
Seeing Gwain’s reluctance to initiate, Finley seized the chance and launched
his assault.
Each strike from Finley was a blaze of intensity, each blow brimming with
searing power, forcing Gwain into a defensive stance almost immediately.
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.‘
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.

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.

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.
