The meeting concluded, and the president of the Xijiang Province Martial Arts Association stood up, an air of controlled power emanating from him.

This restrained force alone gave off an extremely potent aura.

It was an indescribable and elusive sensation.

And there he was, merely standing, yet his entire being radiated an unrivaled dominance. It was precisely this aura that silenced everyone else at the meeting, ensuring its smooth execution without his needing to utter a word.

Wang Ye noted down the name of this president, Yuan Shuo.

"This meeting is adjourned!"

Upon finishing this statement, Yuan Shuo left immediately and decisively.

Upon witnessing this, Wang Ye was even more speechless. The strength Yuan Shuo possessed appeared immense, likely that of a Third Grade Martial Warrior, in Wang Ye's estimation.

Yet.

A Third Grade Martial Warrior had just conducted a three-hour meeting lacking substantial content—was this some kind of joke?

For a moment, Wang Ye felt as if his mind was brimming with complaints he could hardly express.

What Wang Ye didn't know, however, was that Yuan Shuo, after leaving, had promptly moved to the next room.

In the adjacent room, there was a computer.

The screen was playing the content from inside the meeting room.

Upon looking at the computer, Yuan Shuo's expression, now different from when he was in the meeting room, showed hints of anticipation and excitement.

It was as if... he had come across some juicy gossip and decided to camp out here to enjoy the unfolding drama.

A young woman entered the room where Yuan Shuo was, kicked the door closed with a gentle lift of her leg, and approached him, placing a cup of coffee on his desk. She looked at Yuan Shuo with a hint of resignation.

She spoke to Yuan Shuo:

"I really didn't expect that you, the president of the Xijiang Province Martial Arts Association, would sneak off after a meeting to watch the excitement through surveillance in this room."

After saying this, the young woman dragged a chair next to Yuan Shuo and sat down, directing her gaze to the computer screen.

Though she felt some resignation and incomprehension about Yuan Shuo's behavior, she found herself quite understanding of it.

After all, she was a woman herself.

And isn't it perfectly normal for women to enjoy watching gossip?

Yuan Shuo, hearing the woman's words, chuckled and pulled open a drawer in his desk, which contained some snacks like sunflower seeds and peanuts. He placed these next to them and said with a smile:

"After all, life is boring most of the time. If there is drama to be watched, taking a moment to enjoy it isn't so bad."

The woman rolled her eyes, grabbed some sunflower seeds, and started cracking them in her mouth, while Yuan Shuo did the same with some peanuts.

...

Wang Ye and the others had no clue that just next door, the recently departed Yuan Shuo was secretly watching them. If Wang Ye had known this, he likely would have burst out cursing shamelessly!

If he knew something was going to happen, he might as well have addressed the issue directly rather than sneakily enjoying the drama.

As soon as Yuan Shuo left, Xiang Fang immediately turned his attention to Wang Ye and said, "Wang Ye, now that the meeting is over, perhaps it's time we discussed your matter."

Upon hearing this, Chai Yan looked at Wang Ye with some worry.

Although he could tell from Wang Ye's calm demeanor that he might have some tricks up his sleeve, the key issue was that he didn't know what those were.

"Discuss?"

Wang Ye smiled, and up till now, his face showed no signs of worry. Compared to Xiang Fang, his expression seemed more like that of someone holding a winning hand, "Since you want to talk, let's discuss it right now."

Having said that.

Xiang Fang made a call; Yun Hong was actually from the Yun City Martial Arts Association and didn't qualify to attend this meeting.

Two minutes later, led by Xiang Ji, Yun Hong entered the meeting room. As soon as he arrived, his eyes full of resentment locked on Wang Ye and he said:

"Wang Ye! You scoundrel, I thought you were the president of the Yun City Martial Arts School and even the owner of Yun City's leading group. You have such a good reputation online, I thought you were a decent man. But to my surprise, you are so despicable!"

Yun Hong spoke with utmost loathing for Wang Ye, as if he could hardly restrain himself from attacking.

Wang Ye listened to Yun Hong's words but didn't take them to heart. He turned to Xiang Fang and asked:

"Xiang Fang, where are the enforcement team members? I haven't seen anyone from the enforcement team step forward yet. Don't tell me, it's you, right?"

"If it's you, then I think we better call President Yuan back. Otherwise, being in the enforcement team and targeting me at the same time... wouldn't that be a joke?"

"Don't worry, how could I possibly be from the enforcement team."

Xiang Fang's voice was somewhat chilly as he replied, thinking to himself that, although he wasn't from the enforcement team, his good brother certainly was.

"The captain of the enforcement team, Ma Jin, will be here soon. Don't worry; as soon as Captain Ma arrives, what you did to Yun Hong yesterday won't stay hidden anymore."

Another minute passed.

Ma Jin entered the meeting room and took the seat previously occupied by Yuan Shuo.

In the room next door, seeing Ma Jin take his seat, Yuan Shuo was not upset but instead, his smile deepened mysteriously.

The woman next to Yuan Shuo suddenly felt sympathy for Ma Jin.

Ma Jin.

Things were probably about to go downhill for him.
