Chapter 307
He did not even touch the platform...
All he did was wave his hand to release a single burst of pure energy...
This was an entirely different level compared to Henry, who had to press his hand against the platform to channel his energy.
In short, the difference was clear. Dustin's pure energy was exponentially more powerful than Henry's.
The realization left the crowd utterly stunned.
Was this kid really from some rural backwater like Rivenesco?
No one felt the disparity more acutely than Henry himself.
He had experienced Dustin's unique pure energy firsthand.
As his men helped him to his feet, he was deep in thought.
"Overbearing... such an overbearing energy!" he murmured to himself. It was the only way he could describe it.
"Mr. Henry, are you... okay?" one of his men asked anxiously.
Snapping out of his daze, Henry winced as pain shot through him.
His face was darkened with humiliation.
He had lost...
He had been utterly crushed. He was not even able to last a single round.
"I've lost..." he admitted with a heavy sigh.
At least he had the decency to admit it, especially with so many people watching.
"Your pure energy is incredible. I concede defeat,” Henry said.
There was no point in throwing a tantrum. That would only make him look worse in front of the crowd.
"It's alright," Dustin said nonchalantly.
Although Henry was not exactly an honorable person, at least he had the guts to admit defeat, unlike Julian. "This is the money I owe," Henry said as he gestured for a cart to be wheeled over. On it sat a hill of cash.
In just two bets, Dustin had made nearly a hundred million dollars!
Skill, it seemed, was the quickest way to make money in places like this.
Naturally, Dustin was not going to turn down such a win. He pulled out a sleek gold card and asked for the cash to be transferred into his account.
"A Global Bank Gold Card!"
Henry's eyes narrowed the moment he saw the card.
This gold card was issued by the world's most prestigious bank. Ordinary wealthy people were not even qualified to apply for one.
'Who exactly is this Fustin Dox?' Henry's mind stirred with suspicion.
His background had to be incredibly powerful.
et
He knew there was not a single family in the entire Rivenesco that could get a gold card from the Global Bank. Even in Grayvale, only
very few could.
"Please wait a moment, Fustin," Henry said as he set his thoughts aside. He had someone discreetly take the card to process the transfer.
"Fustin, Miss Allison, please enjoy
yourselves. I'll just change out of etnovelbin
these clothes and return shortly," he spectfully as his attitude completely transformed.
Not long after, Henry returned to the entertainment area in some clean clothes.
This time, he personally guided Dustin and Allison through various activities.
However, the young heirs of Grayvale were not pleased.
Henry was supposed to be one of their leaders. How could he switch sides like this?
This rural bumpkin had already stolen the most sought-after martial arts goddess in Grayvale. Why did Henry have to treat him with such respect? Some people could not bear their resentment.
"Go to the Thornton family villa and tell them Allison has a fiance," one of the heirs said to his servant with a sly grin.
Hearing this, the other young heirs' expressions shifted from gloom to wicked amusement.
Everyone in Grayvale knew that the Thornton family's heir had been infatuated with Allison for years.
Unfortunately for him, Allison had never shown any interest.
~
Not long ago, the Thornton family had even sent a marriage proposal to the McCall family, only to be flat-out rejected. It had been a humiliating blow.
If he found out Allison was already engaged, he would not take it easily.
After all, he was the top genius in Grayvale!
