Chapter 1206 Zhao Qiankun Visits
"Thank you very much, Young Master Jiang!"
Lei Heng was the first to step forward, clasped his hands in a fist and bowed, "I was blind before, I didn't recognize your greatness, and I even followed others to attack Young Master Jiang."
"It's my good fortune to be here at Tenglong now. From now on, I'll be at Young Master Jiang's beck and call without hesitation!"
He knew in his heart that the octagon was a fight to the death, and that Jiang Xiaochuan's willingness to let bygones be bygones was already an immense act of leniency.
Since we've chosen Tenglong, we must show our utmost sincerity.
"me too!"
Upon seeing Jiang Xiaochuan, Luo Gang felt a surge of anger welling up inside him.
He had been thoroughly humiliated by Jiang Xiaochuan in the octagon last time, and he was eager to get his revenge.
But when he thought about the monthly Body Tempering Pill and the year-end Meridian Opening Pill, his resentment vanished.
All he wanted to do in his life was break through his cultivation level. Jiang Xiaochuan was giving him that opportunity, so what was wrong with giving in?
Following the two men's statements, the four grandmasters behind them also stepped forward, expressing their willingness to join Tenglong.
Jiang Xiaochuan's gaze swept over everyone, and he knew exactly what was going on.
These people haven't truly let go of the grudges from the octagon; they've clearly been lured in by the generous rewards of a Body Tempering Pill every month and a Meridian Opening Pill at the end of the year.
However, he didn't care at all, because relationships based on shared interests are inherently more stable than vague "friendship."
As long as these people can be used by him, his goal will be achieved.
Du Hai stood to the side, his face filled with barely suppressed excitement.
Including the previous grandmasters, Tenglong now has more than a dozen grandmasters, which was unimaginable before.
"Boss! With our current strength, even established families would have to think twice before attacking us!"
Knowing that Jiang Xiaochuan had always been suppressed by the inherited aristocratic families, Du Hai felt quite smug.
However, Du Hai's statement clearly shows that he did not see the deeper issues.
Those families that have been passed down for hundreds of years have profound heritage, and some of them have ancient monsters who have lived for hundreds of years and have already entered the Nirvana Realm many years ago.
A Nirvana Realm expert could easily crush three Grandmasters on his own.
This gap cannot be bridged simply by piling up numbers.
However, Jiang Xiaochuan did not expose Du Hai, after all, the fact that he could gather so many experts in just half a month had far exceeded his expectations.
More importantly, with this force, he had the confidence to form an alliance with the Zhuge family.
Jiang Xiaochuan secretly pondered that it was time to find Zhuge Canglan and discuss how to deal with the Huangfu family.
He refused to believe that, given his current power, the other party could remain unmoved.
Just as he was pondering, a powerful aura approached from afar.
Everyone instinctively turned around and saw Feng Ji slowly walking in.
Upon seeing this, the pupils of the newly recruited grandmasters suddenly contracted, especially Luo Gang, whose face was filled with disbelief.
He clearly remembered that not long ago, although Feng Ji was very strong, he was at the same level as him in the late stage of the Grandmaster realm.
But now, the aura emanating from Feng Ji clearly indicates that he has already stepped into that legendary realm—the Nirvana Realm!
How is this possible? In such a short time... Unless, it's due to the effects of elixirs!
Luo Gang was deeply shaken. The slight doubt he had about Jiang Xiaochuan's supply of pills completely vanished, replaced by an irrepressible eagerness.
He even felt a pang of sadness for his old partner, Yin Jiu.
How much genuine cultivation can one gain from joining the Huangfu family simply because of a grudge?
Nothing compares to this, where the chance to rise to the top is right in front of you!
"Over the next few days, Elder Feng will guide you through the affairs of Tenglong. Afterward, Du Hai will assign specific responsibilities to everyone."
Jiang Xiaochuan's voice broke the silence.
"Thank you, senior."
After realizing what was happening, Luo Gang changed his previous indifferent attitude, clasped his hands in a respectful gesture towards Feng Ji, and said...
If it were during a challenge, he definitely wouldn't have taken Feng Ji seriously, and might even have insulted him.
After all, he is still younger than Feng Ji, so it's really uncertain who will win.
But now, the situation is completely different.
In this martial arts world where strength reigns supreme, this is a reality even more brutal than strict ironclad rules.
Following Luo Gang's actions, Zhao Wu and the others hurriedly lowered their heads.
Lei Heng secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
He had offended a considerable force, and no top-tier family dared to take him in.
However, with a Nirvana Realm expert overseeing the area, Tenglong's safety is guaranteed.
Jiang Xiaochuan saw through their thoughts, which was why he had Feng Ji step forward.
Some forces can be held back, but their very existence is the most fundamental truth.
Feng Ji naturally understood Jiang Xiaochuan's intention to establish his authority through him, and his gaze swept over the crowd indifferently, as if the water had not risen from a still well.
That calm and scrutinizing air, belonging to a higher realm, was more oppressive than any harsh rebuke, making the newly promoted masters not even dare to breathe.
Just as the hall fell silent, everyone intimidated by Feng Ji's imposing presence—
"Damn it! Can't you even breathe? Get one of you out here!"
A piercing sound abruptly shattered the solemnity!
Everyone frowned and looked over, only to see Zhao Qiankun swaggering in with an extremely arrogant attitude.
However, when he saw Luo Gang, Zhao Wu, Lei Heng and others standing behind Jiang Xiaochuan, the arrogance on his face instantly froze, turning into astonishment.
"You... you..."
Zhao Qiankun stammered, pointing at the group, "Luo Gang, Zhao Wu? Why aren't you at the boxing ring? What are you doing here in this run-down place?"
"A down-on-their-luck person?"
Zhao Wu's eyes turned cold. He took a step forward, and although he did not unleash his full grandmaster aura, it made Zhao Qiankun stop speaking abruptly, and his face turned pale.
"Zhao Qiankun,"
Zhao Wu's voice was icy cold, "Go back and tell Tang Long that from today onwards, we will follow Young Master Jiang and have nothing to do with the Rising Dragon Boxing Arena. From now on, we will go our separate ways and not get in our way again."
"You've betrayed Master Tang! Master Tang will never let you get away with this!"
Zhao Qiankun felt both shocked and heartbroken.
Although it was expected that these masters would eventually seek better opportunities elsewhere, no one expected it to happen so quickly, and even less did they expect them to join Tenglong.
While he was still working hard for Tang Long, Tang Long had already found a powerful backer.
Zhao Wu initially thought he was sent by Tang Long to cause trouble, but judging from his bitter and resentful demeanor, he was clearly unaware of the truth.
"presumptuous!"
Lei Heng didn't care about any of that. A fierce glint flashed in his eyes, and a murderous intent that seemed to solidify instantly locked onto Zhao Qiankun.
Normally, Zhao Qiankun would often act sarcastic and sarcastic in front of them because he was a favorite of Tang Long. Now that Tang Long's protection is gone, who will still tolerate him?
Locked onto by this murderous intent, Zhao Qiankun swallowed back the threatening words that followed.
He then suddenly realized that without Tang Long's protective aura, he was as insignificant as an ant in front of these true masters, who could crush him with a flick of their fingers.
