Despite Bai Mei'er's strong identity and status, her words and expressions made people feel protective towards her.

It made people want to hold Bai Mei'er in their arms and protect her from any harm.

Shi Heng gazed deeply at Bai Mei'er.

Before coming to the Snow Bear Arena, he had changed his appearance, but still, Bai Mei'er recognized him.

Since he was already recognized, Shi Heng no longer hid his true appearance and reverted back, like a noble young gentleman, first bowing to Bai Mei'er before smiling and saying:

"Boss Bai, don't think too much, I merely recruited a new disciple and worried that my identity might cause issues for him during the ranking matches, so I didn't go to the VIP lounge."

Shi Heng's true intentions were not as stated.

On one hand, he wanted to hide his identity with Wang Ye.

On the other hand, Shi Heng was prepared from the start to rescue Wang Ye if he encountered trouble.

In such a situation, using his identity as Shi Heng would be disgraceful.

It would ruin his image.

But using another identity would avoid this issue.

Bai Mei'er understood Shi Heng's thoughts clearly, but did not expose him, instead smiling and saying: "It seems Shi Tianjiao is quite pleased with your disciple Wang Ye?"

"Naturally."

When Bai Mei'er mentioned it, Shi Heng straightened his back a bit.

Clearly, he felt proud of his disciple Wang Ye.

Although Shi Heng had always had high expectations of Wang Ye, every day's performance by Wang Ye surprised Shi Heng, making him realize Wang Ye was even more excellent than he imagined.

After a slight feeling of pride, Shi Heng focused his gaze on Bai Mei'er, his expression becoming more serious.

He knew Bai Mei'er had a reason for inviting him and Wang Ye to her office.

So Shi Heng asked Bai Mei'er directly: "Boss Bai, what do you have to discuss with us?"

"Please sit, please sit."

Bai Mei'er, without any air of superiority, guided Wang Ye and Shi Heng to sit on the sofa opposite her, personally pouring the already warmed yellow wine into their cups.

Yet, this did not make Wang Ye and Shi Heng relax their vigilance towards Bai Mei'er.

When Bai Mei'er intended to recruit them, she could help them with small matters, always giving a pleasant feeling.

But if Wang Ye and Shi Heng did something to anger Bai Mei'er, she would definitely act without mercy.

For example, calling Wang Ye over meant Bai Mei'er had been impressed by Wang Ye's performance in the arena today.

Therefore, she appreciated Wang Ye and invited him over.

Otherwise, Bai Mei'er wouldn't have bothered calling Wang Ye.

Bai Mei'er, as the boss of the White Bear Arena, was incredibly busy, it wouldn't make sense for her to meet someone casually.

Back then, Wang Ye's ruthless methods in dealing with Ghost Axe were quite brutal.

After witnessing Wang Ye's harsh measures, Bai Mei'er could still speak to them with a smile, someone like this was not simply trustworthy to Wang Ye.

Bai Mei'er didn't care what Wang Ye and Shi Heng were thinking, she responded to Shi Heng's words directly:

"Actually, I invited you here to discuss cooperation with Wang Ye."

"Cooperation?"

Shi Heng narrowed his eyes, speaking in a deep voice: "My disciple participates in Snow Bear Arena matches merely to improve his strength amidst life and death, not to become your money-making tool."

Shi Heng knew how the arenas handled those with whom they signed agreements.

They treated them entirely as money-making tools.

So, unless driven to desperate circumstances, people would not sign an agreement with the arena.

This could directly cripple a person.

Even a prodigy could be ruined due to such agreements with the arena.

That's why Shi Heng had always been very respectful to Bai Mei'er initially, but after hearing Bai Mei'er's proposal, his expression turned cold.

After speaking, Shi Heng glanced at Bai Mei'er with a cold demeanor, even his voice had changed from before, carrying a deeper tone as he said to Bai Mei'er:

"Boss Bai, you are the owner of Snow Bear Arena, so you should know what this means for a prodigy."

With these words, Shi Heng leaned slightly forward, locking eyes with Bai Mei'er.

Although Bai Mei'er was much stronger than Shi Heng, this time facing Bai Mei'er, Shi Heng showed no fear but a resolute expression.

A tense atmosphere filled the office with Shi Heng's words.

Wang Ye, hearing Shi Heng's words, felt a surge of emotion in his heart.

Before coming, Shi Heng had advised him to get along with Bai Mei'er if possible.

But now, Shi Heng was willing to confront Bai Mei'er for his sake.

"Alright."

Shi Heng stood up, pulling Wang Ye up with an assertive tone: "Let's go!"

"Shi Tianjiao."

Shi Heng's words did not anger Bai Mei'er.

Even when Shi Heng intended to leave with Wang Ye, Bai Mei'er's voice carried a greater allure.

With a touch of provoking thoughts in between.

"Shi Tianjiao, you haven't heard my terms yet, why not listen to them before leaving?"

"My conditions will definitely interest you."

As Bai Mei'er spoke, an unknown power sealed the entire room.
