At this moment, those who had been selected for Blood Blade were all high and mighty, believing that they were the strongest. As soon as Ye Xiao walked through the door, he saw through them. Hence, he let Huo Feng take the stage, aiming to curb their arrogance by letting them know that there are always higher heavens and people beyond people, and that conceit was but a step closer to death, with no other benefits whatsoever!

Despite her seemingly frail appearance, Miss Huo Feng now demonstrated astonishing strength. While she might not defeat her opponents in a single move, her speed was indeed ghost-like, unbelievably fast. Tian Yi, who had been full of arrogance just moments ago, now lost all his hubris. His face, still filled with shock, couldn't believe that he had been defeated by such a delicate woman. In fact, Tian Yi had not even managed to touch her.

Huo Feng was cold, but also very meticulous, understanding why Ye Xiao did not let Tian Yi, Gao Shuang, and Lu Sen become deputy leaders.

The position of deputy leader is not particularly prestigious. Ye Xiao didn't want to govern too much, after all, it was already set that Zhou Hao would be the leader of Blood Blade. Generally speaking, it would be better for Ye Xiao not to join in. But now Ye Xiao realized that if these people continued to be ignorant of the fact that there are greater powers in the world and remained frogs in a well, Blood Blade would never become the piercing blade that stabs through the hearts of others but would instead become mere cannon fodder!

Huo Feng had clearly seen this as well, and that's why she haughtily looked towards Tian Yi, Gao Shuang, and Lu Sen!

Among the three, Tian Yi was short and strong, Gao Shuang, true to his name, was indeed tall and towering at 180 centimeters, with a robust physique clearly more powerful in all aspects than Tian Yi. However, Tian Yi had his own strengths, while Lu Sen was physically superior to Tian Yi but not as tall as Gao Shuang, his combat ability was the best among the three!

So though both Gao Shuang and Lu Sen were very surprised at how fast Huo Feng was, the idea of admitting defeat to such a frail woman was completely unacceptable to them from any standpoint!

"Miss Huo Feng, allow me to experience your techniques!" Gao Shuang immediately stepped forward, his eyes fixated on Huo Feng. Clearly, at this moment, he no longer viewed her as a weak woman, because her strength was simply not something an ordinary person could withstand!

Huo Feng glanced at Gao Shuang with an expressionless face, still cold and detached.

Seeing that Huo Feng simply disregarded him, Gao Shuang felt even more displeased and immediately turned to Ye Xiao, saying, "Brother Xiao, may I..."

"Yes, if you wish, you and Lu Sen can join forces. If you can defeat Huo Feng, the two of you can both be deputy leaders!" Ye Xiao looked towards Gao Shuang and Lu Sen.

Clearly, Tian Yi, who had been defeated earlier, no longer had the chance to compete for the deputy leader position.

Hearing Ye Xiao's words, both Gao Shuang and Lu Sen felt even more irritated. Obviously, Ye Xiao's remark was somewhat disdainful. They were the elites among elites within Heavenly Gate, akin to gods in the eyes of others. Yet now Ye Xiao seemed to have no faith in their abilities.

"Brother Xiao, there's no need for that trouble, I alone am enough!" Gao Shuang looked at Huo Feng, who was much shorter than himself, and said, "I will not hold back, so Miss Huo Feng, you'd better be careful!"

Huo Feng remained silent, as if Gao Shuang's words were not directed at her at all.

Gao Shuang grew even angrier and thus, with a swift step, he charged directly towards Huo Feng. Despite his large stature, he was not slow at all and, like a tiger bursting out of its cage, he raced towards Huo Feng with lightning speed and threw a punch straight towards her chest!

Gao Shuang's punch was thrown with vicious force, prepared to do anything to win, not wanting anyone to think that he was inferior to a woman!

It was unclear if Gao Shuang was too fast or Huo Feng didn't react in time, but when Gao Shuang's punch was thrown, Huo Feng hurriedly put up her hands to block. At the moment their fists and palms made contact, Huo Feng's body was sent flying like a balloon that had lost its string!

At this point, not only the onlookers but even Gao Shuang was stunned. When had his punching power become so formidable? It was just one punch, and he had sent Huo Feng flying!

Gao Shuang even thought that he was much stronger than Tian Yi, but right after his moment of pride, the supposedly defeated Huo Feng showed no sign of injury. Her feet nimbly touched the wall a few times, and suddenly she shot towards Gao Shuang with a speed he couldn't even see, like a bullet furiously ejected forth.

This speed had certainly surpassed what an ordinary human could handle. Although Gao Shuang's abilities were comparable to those of a special forces soldier, he was still a regular person. So when Huo Feng darted over, Gao Shuang, unable to discern her location, instinctively retreated while throwing punches blindly ahead, but he didn't land a single hit on Huo Feng.

However, at that moment, someone tapped Gao Shuang's shoulder. He was immediately shocked and attempted to turn and attack, but as he was halfway through his turn, he felt a fierce kick strike his waist, sending him flying!

Gao Shuang's flying figure was much more awkward than Huo Feng's earlier flight. Huo Feng had intentionally flown backwards using Gao Shuang's force, which allowed her to do so effortlessly, but now Gao Shuang was uncontrollably sent crashing into a wall, even his head struck the wall, causing blood to flow!

And there, standing behind where Gao Shuang had been, was a young girl—no one else but Huo Feng—and she was still in the posture of having just delivered a kick.

If Tian Yi's loss to Huo Feng could have been chalked up to luck, the current situation was different. Huo Feng had given Gao Shuang the opportunity to attack, but in the end, Gao Shuang had failed to land a perfect strike.

Gao Shuang fell to the ground, and for a long while, he didn't get up, with blood still flowing from his head!

Gao Shuang looked at Huo Feng with astonishment, genuinely unable to see why she was so formidable and why her speed was so fast. Could it be that Huo Feng wasn't a frail woman after all?

Huo Feng looked at Gao Shuang and said indifferently, "Still not convinced?"

Upon hearing Huo Feng's words, Gao Shuang now truly had no fight left in him; Huo Feng's strength was simply beyond his comparison!

"I... I concede!" Gao Shuang said helplessly.

"There's another one!" Huo Feng's voice remained that placid. It seemed that this was just routine for her, failing to provoke any interest from her.

If one were to say who among these three people was the wisest, then that person would surely be Lu Sen!

Simply put, although Tian Yi and Gao Shuang were not short on strength, they were prone to rash actions, especially Tian Yi!

Lu Sen looked at Huo Feng, and after a full three seconds, he then turned to look at Ye Xiao and said, "Brother Xiao, I concede, I can't defeat Miss Huo Feng!"

Upon hearing Lu Sen's words, Huo Feng immediately walked slowly to Ye Xiao's side.

Ye Xiao looked at Lu Sen with a slight smile and said, "From now on, the vice-captain of Blood Blade will be Lu Sen!"

"Ah?" Everyone was taken aback by Ye Xiao's words!

The two guys who had been soundly beaten and had lost, did not get the position of vice-captain, yet Lu Sen who simply conceded got the position effortlessly!

Tian Yi and Gao Shuang immediately looked at each other, both feeling somewhat aggrieved.

"Brother Xiao, I think this is unfair; Lu Sen's strength is at most on par with mine!" Tian Yi said to Ye Xiao.

Ye Xiao glanced at Tian Yi, understanding that this guy was impulsive by nature. Although he had strength, he lacked strategic acumen and was not suited for great responsibilities.

"Not fair?" Ye Xiao looked at Tian Yi with a smile on his face and asked, "Do you know what the first rule of Blood Blade is?"

Upon hearing Ye Xiao's words, not only Tian Yi, but even Zhou Hao were taken aback. Obviously, Blood Blade had, up to this point, no rules at all, and nobody really knew what this so-called first rule was!

Ye Xiao looked at the people present and then slowly stood up, his expression grave as he said, "Obedience, Blood Blade members, from the captain to the ordinary members, everyone must understand the word 'obey'. Remember, Zhou Hao is your captain, and his words must be followed. As for me, I am Zhou Hao's boss, and yours as well, so my words must be followed even more. Now you can leave Blood Blade, but once you join, you must not harbor any second thoughts. No matter who it is, otherwise the price will be paid in blood!"

At that moment, Ye Xiao's expression was very serious, and every word he said was of utmost importance and resoluteness.

As Ye Xiao finished speaking, all faces turned earnest; Ye Xiao was sounding a warning to Tian Yi and Gao Shuang!

"Brother Xiao, I was wrong!" Tian Yi finally lowered his previously haughty head.

Ye Xiao smiled faintly and said, "I don't blame you. I don't want to be a dictator, but even more so, I hope not to be forced into being one. Do you understand what I mean?"

"Yes, Brother Xiao!"

When Ye Xiao had finished speaking, everyone, including Huo Feng, Zhou Hao, and Zhao Dapeng, looked at Ye Xiao very seriously and addressed him.

This was precisely the effect Ye Xiao had wanted; Blood Blade would be a sharp knife in his hands, one that must obey him unconditionally, without any reason, for that is the very essence of Ye Xiao's authority!
