"You are merely a junior, even if you have achieved the status of a Grandmaster, could you possibly have a heaven-defying achievement? Which among us here isn't ten times stronger than you?" Long Ao said.

"What would you have me do?" Ye Chen said. Even though he appeared calm and collected on the surface, he couldn't help but feel some disgust towards this person.

"You stay here to assist the police in maintaining order, while we, the Dragon Group's elites, will go and assist the three kings in suppressing the multitude from all directions!" Long Ao said.

As soon as Long Ao spoke, the rest of the Dragon Group stalwarts also turned their gaze towards Ye Chen, indicating that this wasn't just Long Ao's opinion, but the collective will of the five of them. They wanted to unite and pressurize Ye Chen into stepping down!

"Five respected elders, what do you mean by this now? My three grandfathers didn't arrange things this way!" Qin Lan said coldly.

These Dragon Group experts, joining forces and constantly pressuring, were blatantly bullying Ye Chen. The female officer detested such evil, and absolutely could not let such atrocious actions take place.

"Miss Qin, the three kings suppress the multitude; what's needed is strong cooperation partners, not someone who only knows how to seek opportunities for personal gain!" Long Ao said. "Even if this person is a prodigal talent and has reached the Grandmaster Realm, he is still too young. His greatest achievement stops here! Which among the multitude from all directions isn't a Grandmaster? His cultivation is just like a small fish in a big sea, hardly stirring up any waves at all!"

"You are being utterly aggressive!" Qin Lan said icily. "By acting recklessly like this, aren't you afraid of my grandfathers' blame?"

"We too are doing this for the peace of this place, and the three kings will understand our difficulties!" Long Ao said, displaying a kind of magnanimous spirit that embraced the whole world.

"You are going too far!" Qin Lan exclaimed angrily, as he was clearly being selfish under the guise of serving the public.

"Miss Qin, I know your status is noble and you are cherished by the three kings, thus I speak to you in good terms!" Long Ao stared at Qin Lan and said coldly. "However, we directly follow the commands of the Dragon Group's leader only. The three kings are our elders, we respect them, but we can't let them act rashly! How can we allow a junior to partake in a major event like suppressing the multitude from all directions?"

Long Ao's tone towards Qin Lan also started to turn unfriendly; as a veteran member of the Dragon Group, even some high-ranking officials would have to curry favor with him, and if not for being wary of Qin Lan's powerful background, he would have already lashed out in anger.

"You..." Qin Lan was just about to argue with Long Ao angrily, but Ye Chen stepped forward and shielded her with his body.

"When there is a dispute, words can seem very pale and weak!" Ye Chen looked at Long Ao. "You question my strength, so I have no choice but to defeat you."

"What!" Ye Chen's words greatly shocked Long Ao, as the junior was challenging him.

"You are just in the Late Grandmaster Stage, and yet you dare to question me, I must admire your courage!" Ye Chen said, a mysterious charm exhibited on his person. "Now, I give you a chance, a chance to challenge me!"

"Do you know what you are saying!" Long Ao sneered.

"I said, come here, and I will blast you into pieces with one punch!" Ye Chen displayed a defiant air.

"Young man, you are too arrogant. Even if you have achieved the status of a Grandmaster, you are no match for me!" Long Ao laughed arrogantly. "However, today I will let you learn that there are always greater people and higher heavens out there!"

"In the past, others have likewise spoken to me in this manner, but later, that person died!" Ye Chen smiled wickedly. "I have always held the Dragon Group in high regard, and today, having a strong person from the Dragon Group to teach me is exactly what I desire!"

"As long as you can defeat me, I will willingly guard the door here while you go and make achievements at the Peak Group meeting!" Ye Chen said.

"Is that really true?" Long Ao's eyes shone frighteningly.

"Indeed!" Ye Chen nodded.

"Good!" Long Ao's aura burst forth, shooting into the sky, wildly arrogant. "A junior dares to challenge me so presumptuously, I'll lower myself to let you understand the vastness between heaven and earth!"

"Relying on age to dominate, today I'll let you see what it means for talents to emerge in all generations!" Ye Chen declared.

"..."

The members of the Peak Group all had strange expressions. In their eyes, Ye Chen's actions were like he had been kicked in the head by a donkey, he was courting death!

"Ye Chen, this person is a core elder of the Peak Group, extremely powerful; don't be impulsive!" Qin Lan cautioned.

"Don't worry, his cultivation is indeed strong, but he is absolutely no match for me!" Ye Chen said with a smile,

"..."

However, despite Ye Chen's full confidence, his behavior appeared to others as attention-seeking and feigning strength. They all knew Ye Chen's capabilities; he was at most at the Mid Grandmaster Stage. Could he really oppose Long Ao, who was at the Late Grandmaster Stage?

"Boy, if I don't beat you until your face blooms like a peach blossom, then I'm not surnamed Long!" Long Ao laughed furiously, somewhat intimidated by Ye Chen's big talk.

"You originally don't even bear the surname Long!" Ye Chen retorted.

"Ignorant junior, I hope your fists are as hard as your mouth!" Long Ao's aura exploded, no longer engaging in verbal disputes with Ye Chen but instead choosing to strike directly.

"Come at me with all you've got! I, the Heavenly King, will shatter you with one punch. A mere Late Grandmaster Stage, in a snap of the fingers, you will be obliterated!" Ye Chen taunted.

Just as Ye Chen and Long Ao's verbal clash escalated to the verge of throwing punches and fiercely competing, the oldest man with the strongest cultivation couldn't help but frown.

"Strange, this junior isn't showing any divine skills, and his aura is restrained; I can hardly see through his cultivation level! However, since he dares to contest with Long Ao, he must have some extraordinary aspects," the old man looked at the woman. "Miss Yun, you manage all of the Peak Group's intelligence. How much data have you collected on this person?"

"I was settling a riot overseas, and only returned to the country yesterday, summoned here by the Three Kings. My current information on this individual is quite limited!" Yun Xianghan explained. "However, I have been keeping an eye on this young man; he has only just stepped into the realm of Martial Arts Grandmaster, any accomplishments he might have should be very limited!"

Yun Xianghan is a unique member of the Peak Group, she is not a combatant but instead a special intelligence agent.

Despite being an intelligence agent, Yun Xianghan possesses profound and inexplicable strength, being a Grandmaster of terrifying caliber!

"Maybe it's because I've grown old, this battle between this junior and Long Ao unsettlingly perturbs me!" the old man sighed, always feeling that Ye Chen's performance was somewhat too bizarre.

"Mr. Wu, you're not suggesting that Long Ao will lose, are you?" a Grandmaster interjected, this elder being at the Peak of the Grandmaster Realm. If he had a premonition, it basically left little to wonder.

"Why should we speculate wildly? Long Ao and that Ye Chen have already begun their battle; wouldn't it be better for us to just quietly observe the outcome?" Yun Xianghan said.
