"Captain, aren't we going to do something?"

A crowd of Flame Dragon Group members gathered beside the Martial Arts Arena, and Long Wuhun looked a bit anxious as he asked Su Yun beside him.

"Do something about what? This time, the group opened up the treasury to let everyone enhance their strength as much as possible. Zhang Jianjun's strength has reached the mid-stage Venerable Realm, and he's become arrogant. Let's have Brother Shen and the others teach them a lesson!" Su Yun responded nonchalantly.

That person, has he arrived yet?

Su Yun glanced at the sky, a hint of tenderness in his eyes.

"No, Captain, what I'm worried about is whether Captain Shen and the others are a match for Zhang Jianjun and his group! They have thirteen people with three at the mid-stage Venerable Realm. Captain Shen and the others… I don't know what the Dragon Saint was thinking this time, not giving any spots to the Long Ya Special Forces!" Long Wuhun furrowed his brow, an expression of concern in his eyes.

Su Yun interrupted Long Wuhun directly: "Why are you only at the early stage of the Venerable Realm right now?"

"That's because my great-grandfather won't let me break through, otherwise I would also be at the mid-stage Venerable Realm!" Long Wuhun replied indignantly.

"Have you ever thought about why Elder Long won't let you break through?" Su Yun said softly.

"I…" Long Wuhun was momentarily stunned, a confused look appearing on his face.

Su Yun shook his head gently: "You still haven't understood Elder Long's intentions. Your talent is the strongest in the Long Family for several generations. He wants you to build a solid foundation before breaking through! Do you remember what Elder Long said when he opened the treasury while I was living at Cloud Lake?"

"I remember!"

Long Wuhun nodded: "He said, strength level doesn't decide everything. If you can't fully convert your level into actual strength, you might be defeated by someone at a lower level! Only when you've thoroughly mastered your current level of strength is it the best time to break through!"

"Those words come from Mr. Jiang's experience." Su Yun said lightly.

"What? Mr. Jiang's experience?" Long Wuhun was taken aback and exclaimed.

Su Yun nodded towards Shen Xiangtian and the others: "Don't underestimate Captain Shen and his team; they may all be early-stage Venerable Realm Martial Artists, but I don't have the confidence to beat any of them!"

"That can't be right? Captain, you're the first among us to break through to mid-stage Venerable Realm!"

"You still don't understand. Just watch, Zhang Jianjun and his group are bound to suffer, let the facts speak for themselves!" Su Yun shook his head, ending the explanation to Long Wuhun.

Rumble!

The roar of an airplane engine suddenly sounded, and Su Yun snapped his head up to look.

In the sky, a private plane was approaching steadily, with the words Yichen Hotel printed outside.

"He's here!" Su Yun spoke dreamily, a hint of affection flashing in his eyes, which he quickly concealed.

In the center of the Martial Arts Arena, the twenty-one people also looked up at the plane in the sky. Shen Xiangtian and his team had respect in their eyes, while Zhang Jianjun's eyes flashed with jealousy.

Jiang Chen, I won't be any worse than you! I may not surpass you in other things, but in power, I will surely outdo you! This time, I won't just defeat Shen Xiangtian, I will defeat you too! I want to personally overpower you!

Zhang Jianjun glanced at Su Yun standing by the Martial Arts Arena, then turned his gaze back to the private plane, a fierce fighting spirit and faint anger in his eyes.

"Salute!"

The private plane came to a halt a hundred meters above the Martial Arts Arena, and Shen Xiangtian shouted, prompting nine people to raise their hands and perform a solemn military salute towards the plane.

Zhang Jianjun shot a cold smile at Shen Xiangtian.

Whoosh!

Three figures appeared in front of Shen Xiangtian and his team, looking up at the private plane.

"White Supreme, Black Supreme, Qing Supreme!"

The surrounding Flame Dragon Group members all bowed and saluted the three.

"I wonder if the boy will be surprised to see us!" Elder Qing waved at everyone, chuckling as he looked at the private plane.

Elder White smirked: "If it wasn't for the boy helping us, could we have reached the peak of the Venerable Realm this quickly?"

"Ungrateful!" Elder Hei grumbled softly.

"I…" Elder Qing was exasperated, glaring at the two: "I was just joking."

Clack!

The airplane door opened, and under the gaze of everyone present in the Martial Arts Arena, Jiang Chen, Yan Hu, the Crown Prince, Yue Tianzheng, Wu Qianxun, and Supreme Ming Que jumped down from the plane.

"Reporting to the chief instructor, the Long Ya nine-member team is assembled!"

As soon as Jiang Chen landed, Shen Xiangtian and his team spoke in unison.

"At ease!" Jiang Chen returned a military salute, waving a hand at the nine.

Only then did Shen Xiangtian and his team lower their saluting arms.

"Young Jiang, your strength has improved again, hasn't it?" Elder Qing looked smugly at Jiang Chen.

Jiang Chen stepped toward the three elders, looking at Elder Qing with amusement: "Elder Qing, you say it like you can see through my strength."

"I…" Elder Qing was at a loss for words because he really couldn't see through Jiang Chen's strength.

"Showing off your peak Venerable Realm strength to me? Be careful or I'll have Elder Wu use one hand to keep you down!" Jiang Chen retorted again.

Elder Qing shrank back momentarily, fearing that Wu Qianxun, who was loyal to Jiang Chen, might actually act. Wu would certainly not hesitate, not caring that this was the headquarters of the Flame Dragon Group.

"You brat, you… I'm too lazy to bother with you!" Elder Qing blushed and, glaring at Jiang Chen, turned to give a salute to the Crown Prince and the others: "Greetings, esteemed seniors."

White Elder and Black Elder also saluted at the same time.

Whoosh!

Elder Long arrived with Supreme Long Huang and Supreme Phoenix Luan. With the arrival of the three Crown Princes, Elder Long had to personally come out to greet them.

After greeting the three Crown Princes, Elder Long turned to look at Jiang Chen: "So you've decided to get serious this time?"

"It's time to act. If we delay any longer, it might be too late! If two matters occur simultaneously, it will be a big headache!" Jiang Chen said helplessly.

"It's good to act sooner, the sooner the better!" Elder Long nodded, gesturing towards a nearby office building: "Let's go, we can chat in the conference room."

"Alright!" Jiang Chen nodded and was about to head towards the office building.

"Wait a minute!"

A voice shouted out, and Zhang Jianjun jogged over to Elder Long and the others, saluting them before turning to Jiang Chen: "Chief Instructor Jiang, I feel it's unfair!"

"Huh?" Jiang Chen looked at Zhang Jianjun in confusion: "Unfair? What's unfair?"

"I believe it's unfair that you've used your influence to let Captain Shen and his team represent the Flame Dragon Group's younger generation at the Peak Conference!" Zhang Jianjun said loudly.

"Did Chief Instructor Jiang use his influence to secure slots for Captain Shen's team?"

"No way, would Elder Long and the Dragon Saint make such a hasty decision?"

"I don't think so? This concerns the status of our Flame Dragon Group!"

"Was there no selection process? I thought there was a selection; I wasn't eligible to participate in it!"

The Flame Dragon Group members began whispering among themselves.
