Jiangning City, an oval-shaped building by the river.
Although this building was much smaller in scale than the Star Martial Hall Jianghuai City branch,
it was still an extremely avant-garde architectural complex in Jiangning City, with a large footprint and fully equipped facilities.
This was the Star Martial Hall Jiangning Office!
At this moment, a squad of seven stood clad in black martial artist combat uniforms.
These combat uniforms possessed extremely strong defensive capabilities.
Even Spirit Stream Realm High Stage martial artists would have to expend considerable effort to break through them.
Moreover, every one of them carried weapons, though they mainly used cold weapons.
Because spiritual energy had revived, humanity had set off a frenzy of evolution.
The Human Race's physical constitution had undergone a tremendous leap.
Some high-level martial artists could easily withstand bullets and artillery shells.
There were even rumors that some powerful martial artists could withstand nuclear weapons head-on—terrifying beyond belief!
Not only that, certain alloy weapons forged and developed through advanced technology, when wielded by high-level martial artists, could unleash even greater power than firearms!
"Reporting to Captain, First Squad has assembled. Squad Leader, Leng Feng!"
The speaker was a stern man with a dark complexion and bluish stubble. A battle saber nearly as tall as a man rested on his back, emanating a chilling aura.
This man was a Spirit Stream Realm Seventh Grade powerhouse, with a Vitality Value exceeding 1,000.
Today, Captain Wu Xie had been parachuted in, and on his very first day, he had specifically called on First Squad to carry out a mission.
"Good. Depart immediately. Destination: Meng Corporation!"
Wu Xie gave the order directly, his expression cold and stern.
"Yes!"
Leng Feng answered loudly.
The oval canopy opened, and a combat vehicle appeared on the platform.
Wu Xie boarded the front passenger cabin directly, while Captain Leng Feng led the squad members swiftly into the combat compartment at the rear.
Boom, boom.
Flames blasted out.
The combat vehicle shot into the sky, streaking toward Meng Corporation!
"Captain, what are we going there for this time?"
Ordinary martial artists all used cold weapons.
But the bald man before them, after taking off his helmet, had circles of bullets and other firearms wrapped around his body.
Not only that, he spoke with a strong Northeastern accent.
Leng Feng shot him a glance. "According to the captain, it should be that a martial artist from our Star Martial Hall has activated Diamond Tier authority."
"Diamond Tier authority?!"
The martial artists in the squad stiffened at once.
After all, they had basically all reached Spirit Stream Realm Third Grade or above, yet their authority within Star Martial Hall was only Bronze Tier.
Only their captain, Leng Feng, had attained Gold Tier authority.
As for Diamond Tier authority, they did not know whether their captain, who had been parachuted in, had reached it or not.
"My god, Diamond Tier authority. Someone like that should at least be a Star River Realm powerhouse, right?
Why would someone like that need our squad?"
The bald man asked in confusion.
It was not just him.
Upon hearing that it was a martial artist with Diamond Tier privileges activating the squad's deployment authority,
under normal circumstances, a single Star River Realm martial artist would be enough to sweep through their entire squad.
Activating their squad—wasn't that just superfluous?
"Why do you have so much nonsense to say? Just follow orders!"
Leng Feng barked coldly.
"Yes!"
"Yes!"
Rustle...
Leaves drifted down, and something seemed to flash past above them.
Meng Corporation.
It stood in the heart of Jiangning City's most prosperous CBD.
From the top floor of the skyscraper, one could take in all the scenery of Jiangning City at a glance!
At this moment, within the sprawling top-floor office decorated in solid wood,
"Xiao Hui has really done us proud. He actually awakened B-grade spirituality, and he has already reached Spirit Stream Realm Second Grade.
His Martial Arts Mastery has also reached the peak of the first rank. He successfully passed the Jiangnan Martial University trial and was admitted to Jiangnan Martial University early!"
"Congratulations, President Meng!"
An elderly man with white hair and a youthful complexion, dressed in luxurious robes, praised him.
"Hehe, it is all thanks to Elder Shen's excellent guidance. My son merely lived up to expectations."
The man with slicked-back hair chuckled.
The excitement on his face could not be concealed at all.
His younger son had become incorrigibly unruly, spending his days wallowing in wine and women.
His eldest son was the one with the makings of something great.
The Youth called Meng Hui also wore a face full of pride.
"Dad, save me!"
Suddenly, the office doors were shoved open.
A Youth who bore some resemblance to Meng Hui rushed inside.
Behind him, Liu Liu clutched his hand. The bandages wrapped around it had already been soaked through with blood.
"Why are you shouting and making such a fuss? The sky isn't falling!"
Meng Xiong shouted coldly.
The moment he saw this disappointing son of his, anger rose within him.
He had warned Meng Chen long ago: lust was a blade hanging over one's head. If he was not careful, one day he would die on a woman's belly.
But as his father,
he was still his own flesh and blood. Every time Meng Chen got into trouble, he had always been the one cleaning up after him.
And judging by this, that bastard had caused trouble outside again.
"Oh, okay."
Meng Chen looked aggrieved, but once he had returned to the corporation, his heart completely settled.
His hatred for Ye Fan was boundless.
He wished he could immediately bring Elder Shen back with him, rip that brat's tendons out, and flay his skin!
"Oh, Brother is back too?"
"Yes! It was Ye Fan from your old grade. He injured Liu Liu and even threatened to kill me!"
Meng Chen howled.
"Ye Fan?"
Meng Hui was also somewhat puzzled after hearing this. "That trash who only knows how to train bitterly? Yesterday, because his aptitude was too poor, he was already expelled from the Jiangnan Martial University Trial Camp."
"How could he possibly injure Liu Liu?"
"Were you eyeing his younger sister again?"
After only a moment's thought, Meng Hui knew what disgraceful thing his younger brother had been up to.
"Enough. He's just an ordinary commoner. Have them pay the medical bills and show some sincerity in compensation, then let the matter go."
Meng Xiong waved a hand dismissively.
"President Meng, rest assured, I will handle—"
Elder Shen said with a smile.
Tap tap tap...
Very soon, a burst of hurried footsteps came from outside.
"Something terrible has happened, President Meng!"
Even from far away, one of the subordinates could be heard shouting.
"Panicking and rushing about—what kind of behavior is this?"
Meng Xiong said, greatly displeased.
"Reporting to President Meng, Meng Corporation has been surrounded by a squad from Star Martial Hall."
The newcomer reported.
"What? A Star Martial Hall squad?!"
Meng Xiong was greatly shocked upon hearing this!
Suddenly, he turned to Meng Chen, his gaze seeming ready to devour him alive!
"N-No, it wasn't me, Dad! How would I dare provoke people from Star Martial Hall?!"
Meng Chen broke into a cold sweat and hurriedly denied it.
The surveillance footage was brought up.
On one screen appeared a tall Youth, walking at the very front with a Bright Silver Red Tassel Spear in hand, his bearing extraordinary.
Several martial artists in combat uniforms followed at his side.
They looked murderous.
"This... is that really Ye Fan?"
Meng Hui was stunned as well.
Impossible!
The way Ye Fan had humbly begged yesterday, compared to the way he looked today, like a god of slaughter—
they were simply like two entirely different people!
