Mr.

Ye,” Zhang Xiaoqiang said, slightly flustered.

Ye Xuan patted Zhang Xiaoqiang on the shoulder and said, “Focus on the competition, don’t worry about the rest.”

After consoling Zhang Xiaoqiang, Ye Xuan and Azure Dragon also headed back to the Earth Group’s resting area.

“Mr.

Ye, no matter what, people like Ming Ye are from the Wu’an Office, so please make sure to show some mercy,” said Azure Dragon.

Others might not be aware of Ye Xuan’s strength, but how could Azure Dragon not know?

After hesitating for a long time, he still spoke out to advise Ye Xuan.

Looking at the worried expression on Azure Dragon’s face, a sense of disappointment flashed in Ye Xuan’s eyes, and he said in a low voice, “Azure Dragon, do you know why the Earth Group is so weak, and why people like Bai Lang and Ming Ye dare to bully us?”

Ye Xuan’s words startled Azure Dragon, who then hesitated for a long while before responding with a bitter smile, “The overall cultivation of the Earth Group is not high, and in the past years at the martial competition ceremony…”

Without waiting for Azure Dragon to finish, Ye Xuan waved his hand to interrupt, his voice becoming more solemn, “You are wrong.

Cultivation is only one aspect.

The real reason they don’t take the Earth Group seriously is because of you.”

“Me?” Azure Dragon was shocked.

“Yes, it’s because of you.”

Ye Xuan stared into Azure Dragon’s eyes and continued, “You consider the bigger picture in everything you do, and you handle things with indecisiveness.

To outsiders, this appears as a sign of weakness.”

“As the saying goes, if the leader is a bear, the followers will be a den of bears.

Today, a member of the Heaven Group got injured, and Ming Ye, as the leader, disregarded the rules of the competition to seek revenge for his teammate.

In your eyes, this action is against the rules, but to the members of the Heaven Group, Ming Ye is standing up for them.

How could they not fight to the death for Ming Ye?”

“Whether it’s mastery in leadership or brotherly loyalty, take a look at the members of the Heaven Group now, and perhaps you will discover something.”

At that point, Ye Xuan stopped speaking, and Azure Dragon quickly turned his gaze to the Heaven Group’s resting area.

When he saw the admiration and reverence in the eyes of the members for Ming Ye, he became completely stunned at that moment, as if he understood something.

“United we stand, divided we fall.

Even if you are not a match for Ming Ye in cultivation, if you led the Earth Group with an iron will, without giving an inch, the Earth Group would not be in its current state,” Ye Xuan said bluntly—so bluntly that it made Azure Dragon feel ashamed, yet it was an undeniable truth that had to be stated.

Since entering the headquarters of the Wu’an Office, Ye Xuan had noticed this issue.

The Xuan Group’s Bai Lang had been bullying them, and even Ming Ye from the Heaven Group did not take Azure Dragon seriously.

All of this proved that Azure Dragon had significant issues in his way of dealing with people.

In Ye Xuan’s view, Azure Dragon was not weak but had managed to show concern for the overall situation of the Wu’an Office, not wanting to cause internal strife, and was a man of iron.

Yet, it was precisely because of this approach that the Earth Group had fallen to its current state.

Why hadn’t the Earth Group had a Guest Elder for ten years?

The reason was actually quite simple—it was because Azure Dragon acted with too much caution.

How could true experts want to work with him?

“The sky won’t fall if there are tall people around.

You’re just a group leader within the Wu’an Office, yet you worry about the affairs of all eight groups.

Why bother?” Ye Xuan said softly.

“Mr.

Ye, I understand now.”

Like a butterfly emerging from a chrysalis, a sudden realization dawned upon him.

In the midst of Ye Xuan’s words, Azure Dragon clenched his fists tightly, and his mindset underwent a dramatic transformation at that moment.

“The kind are bullied, the tame are ridden;” this saying has persisted throughout time not without reason.

Azure Dragon understood the meaning of this phrase, but he had always been caught in the midst of it, only to be awakened by Ye Xuan at this moment.

Seeing the fighting spirit emerging in Azure Dragon’s eyes, Ye Xuan slowly nodded and then fell silent.

Ye Xuan always believed in one principle: the strong remain strong, and the weak are like dogs.

Just like in real life, there are always some people who, when you take a step back, they push forward, until you have no room to retreat.

Only then do you have a sudden awakening, but by that time, it’s usually too late.

The tournament continued, with members from each group taking their turn on stage.

A half-day quickly passed, and Zhang Xiaoqiang advanced triumphantly, defeating all his opponents until they lay vanquished at his feet.

When he finally faced a member from the Xuan Group, he inflicted such a severe injury on his adversary that the Earth Group members burst into loud cheers.

Bai Lang’s expression turned extremely gloomy, the previous pride nowhere to be found, yet his eyes, filled with a vicious glint, occasionally flickered towards Ye Xuan, betraying a hidden murderous intent.

“The champion of this martial competition is Zhang Xiaoqiang of the Earth Group.”

When the head of Wu’an Office ascended the stage to announce the final result, the entire Earth Group erupted in cheers.

Zhang Xiaoqiang, excitedly holding up a trophy, quickly approached Ye Xuan and said emotionally, “Mr.

Ye, I won, I really won, I haven’t let you down.”

“You did very well,” Ye Xuan replied with a nod and a smile.

Whoom!

The air resonated, and as soon as the head of Wu’an Office had finished announcing the results, Ming Ye and Yun Shanhe stepped directly onto the stage, their eyes on Ye Xuan and Azure Dragon, full of dark malice.

“Head, let’s cut through the red tape; since the remaining is a sparring session between the Guest Elders of the groups, I’ll have the Heaven Group take the lead,” Ming Ye said coldly.

The head of Wu’an Office responded with a servile smile and stepped down from the stage, it was clear that what was about to happen was beyond his control.

“Interesting, the Xuan Group shall join the fray as well,” Bai Lang, the Guest Elder of the Xuan Group, leaped onto the stage, his gaze also turning towards Ye Xuan and Azure Dragon.

Bang!

Azure Dragon rose from his seat with a slap on the table, ready to leap onto the stage, but before he could act, Ye Xuan pressed him back down onto his seat, saying, “They are here for me, this has nothing to do with you.”

Casual as a breeze, untouched by the dust of the world.

Ye Xuan stepped onto the stage at a leisurely pace, staring directly at the four men in front of him, his face expressionless, leaving no clue as to his thoughts.

“Brother Ming Ye, this man and I have some unresolved issues; how about you leave him to me?” Bai Lang said with a venomous smile.

“He injured my beloved disciple, I must personally cripple his cultivation,” Ming Ye stated coldly.

“Let’s not harm our camaraderie.

I think it would be better to let Mr.

Ye himself choose his opponent,” suggested Yun Shanhe with a twirl of his beard and a smile, clearly not taking Ye Xuan seriously.

At that moment,

Whether it was the guests from all directions or the members of the eight groups, they all turned their gaze to the stage above.

Seeing the hostility that the four Ancient Martial Grandmasters displayed towards Ye Xuan, some people couldn’t help but break out in a cold sweat on his behalf.

“Lord Azure Dragon, Mr.

Ye alone, how could he stand a chance against them, you…” A member of the Earth Group paused, hesitant to continue.

“Don’t worry, they couldn’t possibly be a match for Mr.

Ye; just watch,” Azure Dragon retorted with a cold laugh, a statement that was clearly overheard by the members of all eight groups, causing them to react with shock and turning their astonished gazes to Ye Xuan on the stage.

On the stage!

Ye Xuan stood with his hands behind his back, calmly looking at the four people in front of him, finding their dispute somewhat amusing.

“No need to argue; all of you come at me together, after all, the moment you stepped onto this stage, you were already dead men,” Ye Xuan said indifferently.
