Jiang Chen was taken aback at the words and turned to look at Elder Long.

Elder Long smiled slightly: "Time is urgent, there wasn't time for a selection. You didn't allow us to give cultivation resources to the Dragon Tooth Special Combat Team. These guys improved their strength with the resources and became discontent!"

"What?"

"Was it General Instructor Jiang who didn't allow the group to give cultivation resources to the Dragon Tooth Special Combat Team?!"

"How could it be? Did the Dragon Tooth Special Combat Team offend General Instructor Jiang?"

"I understand now, it's General Instructor Jiang himself who gave them the resources, helping us save some resources, right?"

"Hey, do you think this is because of what Elder Long said when opening the treasure vault about 'it's best to fully understand one's strength before breaking through', and that's why General Instructor Jiang didn't allow resources for the Dragon Tooth Special Combat Team!"

The members of the Flame Dragon Group began discussing fervently.

"That statement seems to have had no effect at all?" Jiang Chen glanced at the members of the Flame Dragon Group, sensed their strength, and lightly smiled at Elder Long.

Elder Long smiled wryly: "These kids didn't believe your words and used the resources as soon as they got them."

"Were those words spoken by General Instructor Jiang?"

"So... Is it true that General Instructor Jiang withheld resources from the Dragon Tooth Special Combat Team because of those words?"

"Is this genuinely a reminder for us to work solidly, to build a good foundation?"

The Flame Dragon Group's members began discussing again.

"Not convinced, are you?" Jiang Chen turned to Zhang Jianjun.

"Yes! We're all unconvinced!" Zhang Jianjun shouted loudly.

"Yes! We're unconvinced!"

"We're unconvinced!"

The twelve people behind Zhang Jianjun shouted in unison.

After glancing over those thirteen people, Jiang Chen extended his Soul Force to probe them, then checked Shen Xiangtian and the strength of the other nine, and smiled slightly.

"Shen Xiangtian, Feng Lang, Xie Long!" Jiang Chen called out.

"Present!"

The three responded loudly, stepped forward, and stood straight.

"You thirteen can gang up on these three; if you win, I'll let you replace them to join the summit meeting!" Jiang Chen turned to Zhang Jianjun.

"What? Thirteen against three?!"

"This... Did General Instructor Jiang really say this?"

"Those three possess Early Stage Venerable Realm strength!"

Members of the Flame Dragon Group opened their mouths in astonishment.

"General Instructor Jiang, what do you mean? Are you looking down on us?" Zhang Jianjun felt insulted and angrily spoke.

Jiang Chen glanced at Zhang Jianjun indifferently and calmly said: "Want me to look up to you? Then beat them."

"Alright!" Zhang Jianjun replied loudly, staring straight into Jiang Chen's eyes: "If we beat them, I want to challenge you!"

"Ah?" Jiang Chen was momentarily stunned.

Yan Hu raised his eyebrows and coldly said: "Want to fight the Young Master? Defeat me first; otherwise, you don't qualify!"

Zhang Jianjun glanced at Yan Hu, said nothing, and continued to stare directly at Jiang Chen.

"Fine, if you beat them, I'll fight you!" Jiang Chen smiled and responded, then turned to Yan Hu: "You don't idle either, test the six members of Xue Yu."

Turning to Chen Jiantao and the six, Jiang Chen spoke softly: "You six fight Hu Zi alone, and if you remain undefeated for half an hour, then you've passed. Otherwise, don't follow me to the summit meeting so you don't embarrass the Flame Dragon people!"

"Yes!" Chen Jiantao and the six replied loudly.

"Let's go!" Jiang Chen turned to invite Elder Long and the others.

Everyone chuckled and stepped toward the office building.

Office building meeting room.

Dragon Saint and Supreme Hu Sha were already waiting in the meeting room.

Everyone took their seats.

Dragon Saint sat at the head of the table, Elder Long sat first on the right side, followed by Supreme Long Huang, Supreme Phoenix Luan, Supreme Hu Sha, Supreme Ming Que, and Elders Qing, Bai, and Hei.

Jiang Chen sat first on the left side, followed by the Taishang Emperor, Yue Tianzheng, and Wu Qianxun.

"Did Supreme Shi Kui go to Liga Continent?" Jiang Chen asked Dragon Saint after scanning Supreme Hu Sha and the others.

Dragon Saint gently nodded, then softly asked: "You suspect Hu Hada?"

"Yes! I suspect he is the guide of the ancient martial era forces!" Jiang Chen nodded.

"Tell me." Dragon Saint said gravely.

Jiang Chen softly narrated his suspicions.

"The same kind of people..." Dragon Saint pondered for a moment and gently nodded: "It is indeed possible. He's even treating you as a person guiding a force!"

"I think so too." Jiang Chen nodded in response.

"What's your plan?" Dragon Saint asked again.

Jiang Chen spoke quietly of his plan, and everyone began discussing.

An hour later, Dragon Saint concluded: "Alright! This time, the entire Flame Dragon Group, including myself, will be under your command!"

"Thank you, Dragon Saint Senior." Jiang Chen thanked him and then softly asked, "Dragon Saint Senior, can you tell me your strength?"

"Hmm?" Dragon Saint was puzzled and surprised: "Why do you ask this?"

Jiang Chen stared into Dragon Saint's eyes: "The leader of Qi Sha Group, Qi Shaxing, has strength around the late stage of the Saint Realm. Both are leading forces, and the Flame Dragon Group is an old leading force; it should not be overshadowed by Qi Sha Group, right?"

"Late stage of Saint Realm!?"

"Qi Shaxing's strength is so strong?!"

Supreme Long Huang and others exclaimed.

Elder Long glanced at Dragon Saint, turned toward Jiang Chen, and said softly: "Mr. Jiang, regardless of Dragon Saint's strength, he won't harm you..."

"Ding Tian!" Dragon Saint interrupted Elder Long and met Jiang Chen's gaze, saying softly: "My strength is sufficient to suppress Qi Shaxing!"

"What!?"

"This..."

Supreme Long Huang and others exclaimed again, shocked looking at Dragon Saint.

Anger appeared in Jiang Chen's eyes, and he shouted in a low voice: "Why did you not use your full strength during the battle at Elixir Valley? If you did, Jiang Yi and the others wouldn't have died! That battle was so fierce, how many people died, you should know very well!"

Supreme Long Huang and others were momentarily stunned, then suddenly reacted, fell into silence.

The Taishang Emperor frowned and softly said: "Dragon Saint, you should give an explanation."

"I originally planned to tell you when you broke into the Saint Realm; since you already know, I will reveal some of it now!"

Dragon Saint looked at Jiang Chen with a complex expression: "Mr. Jiang, all along, you've underestimated the Martial Dao World, and I think you have noticed this too!"

"Yes, I've noticed it; I indeed underestimated Flame Dragon Martial Arts World, no! I underestimated the Martial Dao World of the entire world!"

Jiang Chen nodded heavily.

"Yes! The Martial Dao World of the entire world is not as simple as you used to think, and my Flame Dragon Martial Arts World is even less simple! Our Flame Dragon Land, is the Land of Martial Origin!" Dragon Saint sighed.

"Land of Martial Origin?"
