"What right do you have to lecture me!"

The bespectacled man's True Qi surged, his eyes filled with rage as he glared at Shen Qiang. Not only did he grip a sharp knife in his hand, but he also roared ferociously, "If you don't get out of the way, you're going to die!"

Shen Qiang looked at him with an unusually calm expression, saying in a deep voice, "Life is full of frustrations, the strong choose to solve those problems, while the weak only hate, curse, and escape, then continue as before. So now, I can give you a chance, put down the weapon, kneel on the ground. As long as you don't resist, I won't kill you."

Hearing this, the bespectacled man furiously said, "You think you can humiliate me? If it weren't for the existence of wealthy people, how could those women possibly become so depraved!"

Shen Qiang suddenly raised his eyebrows, saying sharply, "In this money-driven world, there is plenty of money to be earned. As a man, what use is being cynical? If a woman leaves you because you have no money, as a man, you should make a lot of money to make her regret it. If a woman leaves you because you have no power, as a man, you should gain even greater power to make her out of your league!"

"Hiding aside, secretly pushing a girl down the stairs, what skill is that?" Suddenly stepping forward, Shen Qiang angrily said, "That's something only a shameless coward would do!"

The bespectacled man was stunned, staring blankly at Shen Qiang.

He then furiously said, "Shen Qiang, don't be too presumptuous. Your Cultivation is at most at the Golden Core Stage. Even though you are a bit stronger than me, it's only by a limited amount. Even Lan Yong, who knocked you over three times, doesn't dare to be too arrogant in front of me, so I advise you to be smart and get out of my way immediately!"

Almost at the same time, accompanied by hurried footsteps, someone was obviously coming to the fifth floor.

"I'll say it one last time, put down the weapon, hands on your head, I won't kill you."

Hearing Shen Qiang's words, the bespectacled man's eyes turned cold, and he lunged at Shen Qiang with a ferocious look.

"Go to hell!"

The surging True Qi instantly whipped up a fierce Gang Wind.

The straining bookshelves creaked aloud.

"Whining Knife!"

Accompanied by the bespectacled man's loud roar, his blade emitted a deafening buzz, like a streak of light aiming directly at Shen Qiang's throat.

"Strength at the Foundation Establishment Stage should already be a remarkable achievement for a cultivator from a poor background without strong financial support. Getting to this level could truly be called genius." Shen Qiang watched the blade flash towards him without blinking and calmly raised his fist.

"But merely having such strength, you have no right to be arrogant in front of me!"

As Shen Qiang met the blade with his fist, the bespectacled man felt a surge of ecstasy, "Although your cultivation level is a bit higher than mine, thinking you can win with your fists, you are courting death!"

But almost at the same time as he laughed with glee,

Shen Qiang's powerful punch came crashing down, his eyes turning cold.

"Heavy punch, 1,200 kilograms!"

In an instant, the descending punch accelerated sharply.

Bang!

Amid the dull thud, the sound of bones shattering could be heard.

The bespectacled man's neck twisted strangely, and even half of his body noticeably collapsed.

Shen Qiang stood calmly in his original spot.

There was no wildly released True Yuan nearby.

"Those at the Foundation Establishment Stage can already draw in nature's spiritual energy into their bodies for cultivation and are considered entry-level cultivators. However, compared to those at the Golden Core Stage, who can clearly feel the fluctuations of spiritual energy, they are still far too weak, especially since I possess a weight-bearing Magical Treasure."

"1.2 tons of weight is already comparable to the boost from a small car, the acceleration produced is several times that of 1.2 tons. Combined with skills from Mixed Arts that can triple the force, such a punch is enough to take down someone at Foundation Establishment Stage!"

Shen Qiang thought to himself.

By now, numerous police officers had charged over.

"Freeze, police! Hands on your head, let me see them."

Amid the officer's loud shouts, Shen Qiang was very cooperative.

Meanwhile, at that very moment, the voice of Xiu Ju from the Dark Department suddenly rang out: "These are my credentials, this person is one of ours, the injured need help, you take them to get medical attention."

Shen Qiang turned his head to see an officer staring dumbfounded at the credential in Xiu Ju's hands from the Dark Department.

The officer then made a call to verify.

After confirming the credentials were authentic, they immediately saluted Xiu Ju respectfully.

At that moment, medical staff had arrived.

It was promptly confirmed that one member of Dragon Group had died, another was severely injured, and the criminal suspect Shen Qiang had punched was already dead.

Seeing that there was nothing more to do here, Shen Qiang thought to leave, but just then, the surviving Dragon Group member lying on the stretcher grabbed Shen Qiang by the hem of his shirt.

"He says thank you," Xiu Ju said, looking at his lips.

The man on the stretcher smiled, then let go and was carried away by the medical personnel.

Standing next to the bookshelf, watching their busy figures, Shen Qiang took off his blood-stained shirt while changing into new clothes from his Storage Ring and said in a deep voice, "Had you arrived earlier?"

"Half a step after you."

Hearing Xiu Ju's response, Shen Qiang was silent for a moment and then said, "Is Dragon Group this weak? Just dealing with one at Foundation Establishment Stage, they had one death and one severe injury. If we hadn't happened upon them, that guy could have easily walked away."

Xiu Ju sighed slightly and frowned, "Do you think the frontline employees of the world's richest man can be very rich? Dragon Group is strong, but that's relative. For the two of them, one at Spiritual Movement Stage and the other at Qi Condensation Stage, to ordinary people, they are as strong as indestructible Supermen. But when facing a cultivator at the Foundation Establishment Stage, they couldn't resist at all."

Shen Qiang walked out steadily and said in a deep voice, "Isn't Dragon Group teeming with talents and powerful figures? Qian Shanxue, you, and Ali—all of your Cultivation is at least at the Golden Core Stage, right?"

Upon hearing this, Xiu Ju chuckled and said softly as she followed by Shen Qiang's side, "The team Qian Shanxue belongs to is one of the three strongest A+ combat teams in this military region. And, the state of Dragon Group isn't as you imagine, filled with powerful figures."

"Members of Dragon Group below Nascent Soul Stage make up ninety-seven percent of all Dragon Group members. Those with Cultivation reaching Mixed Element Realm or higher make up only 0.03% of all members."

Looking at a shocked Shen Qiang, Xiu Ju smiled and said, "That is to say, among ten thousand meticulously selected front-line members of Dragon Group, only three individuals' Cultivation is above the Mixed Element Realm. They are the absolute core of Dragon Group."

Shen Qiang frowned, "Are you saying that even within Dragon Group, once my Cultivation reaches the Nascent Soul Stage, it means I'm more outstanding than the other ninety-seven percent?"

"Yes," Xiu Ju said earnestly, "So don't assume just because you see many Cultivators at or above Nascent Soul Stage at places like Wanxin Hesheng and Cheng Xinyi, that Nascent Soul Stage Cultivators are common weaklings."

With eyes sparkling differently, Xiu Ju continued, "Your Cultivation isn't high, but you possess extraordinary powers beyond the reach of most. Once your Cultivation enters Nascent Soul Stage, in the Cultivation World, you will be a respected Master, and in Dragon Group, you'll be one in a thousand elites. By then, the world, vast as it is, will be yours to roam freely."
