Yuan Shuo turned his head, looking at the woman standing at the door, and offered her a wide grin before speaking:

"You all from the headquarters of the Martial Arts Association better remember, I just saved your Association this time. If it weren't for my timely intervention, your Martial Arts Association could very well have been finished in the near future."

The woman rolled her eyes at Yuan Shuo, paying no attention to his teasing.

Her beautiful eyes rested on Wang Ye, sizing him up. She had a feeling that Wang Ye was different from the others.

"President, you wouldn't have come all this way just to chat with me, would you?" Wang Ye's gaze swept over Ma Jin and the others. Although he knew that Yuan Shuo had come over and from Yuan Shuo's attitude, it was clear that Yuan Shuo was on his side.

Yet, Yuan Shuo's failure to deal with these people immediately made Wang Ye feel somewhat uncomfortable.

"Don't be so impatient, I'm more interested in you than in them." Yuan Shuo said to Wang Ye with a smile that was both lecherous and ambiguous.

Yuan Shuo's smile sent a shiver through Wang Ye's entire body!

Why did it feel like Yuan Shuo was a different person from the one in the meeting just now, somewhat less serious.

However, when Yuan Shuo turned his gaze back to Ma Jin, Wang Ye felt Yuan Shuo's demeanor change once again in that moment!

Yuan Shuo looked at Ma Jin and scolded, "Ma Jin, as the head of the Yun City Martial Arts Association's enforcement team, you weren't just and incorruptible; instead, you conspired with your cronies, Xiang Fang among them, to target the presidents from other cities. Don't you think that what you've done is way out of line?"

Xiang Fang was indignant; he hadn't expected that their well-planned scheme, which should have gone smoothly, was disrupted at the last moment by Yuan Shuo, who seemed to have been paying attention to this matter all along.

After finally finding an opportunity for revenge against Wang Ye, they failed, and it was very likely that both he and Ma Jin, as well as some others in the conference room, would soon face severe punishment and could even be expelled from the Martial Arts Association.

This huge disparity made Xiang Fang bold enough to argue with Yuan Shuo, staring at him with his neck stiffened, he began to speak:

"In the video, it was clearly Wang Ye who, without Yun Hong knowing his true strength, induced Yun Hong step by step, which led to Yun Hong's..."

Xiang Fang hadn't finished speaking when Yuan Shuo interrupted with a commanding "Shut up!"

That rebuke caused the words that Xiang Fang had not yet voiced to choke back in his throat, and the force behind Yuan Shuo's shout seemed to carry a special power that gave Xiang Fang an intense feeling of trepidation the moment it rang out.

For a while, Xiang Fang had not a shred of courage to retort against Yuan Shuo.

Yuan Shuo snorted coldly. As a Third Grade Martial Warrior, and with Wang Ye right beside him, even Yuan Shuo's mere snort made Wang Ye feel a tremendous strength emanating from Yuan Shuo.

Is this the power of a Third Grade Martial Warrior?

Wang Ye pondered to himself.

So powerful!

His own strength as a Fourth Grade Martial Warrior was already very formidable, one of the top tiers, but in Wang Ye's opinion, if he were to fight Yuan Shuo, he probably wouldn't even last one move against him.

The might of a Third Grade Martial Warrior!

Yuan Shuo, with a cold snort, addressed Xiang Fang and Ma Jin, "Just as Wang Ye said, why didn't you let Yun Hong know Wang Ye's real strength before fighting him, so that Yun Hong could decide whether to engage in combat with Wang Ye based on his real strength?"

"Why not go ahead with such an advantageous proposal?"

"Before you fight Yun Hong, why don't you inform him of your strength levels? If Yun Hong feels his strength is greater than yours, then he could become the head of the enforcement team. How does that sound to you?"

How does that sound?

Xiang Fang and Ma Jin pondered briefly in their hearts, not good at all.

They didn't dare.

If they did that, wouldn't that make them fools?

Seeing the expressions on their faces, Yuan Shuo could tell what Xiang Fang and Ma Jin were thinking, and with another cold snort, he continued scolding:

"On the battlefield, it's either you die or I survive. During battle, is the enemy supposed to tell you their strength, giving you a chance to judge, and you only strike if you're stronger than the enemy, otherwise you won't fight because you can't defeat them?"

No response came from Xiang Fang or Ma Jin to Yuan Shuo's words.

After all, they both knew the truth of what he was saying; they had only spoken as they did before to send Wang Ye to his downfall.

Now, they were not only awestruck by the deterrent force of Yuan Shuo as a Third Grade Martial Warrior, but also during his speech, the implied momentum left them with no foundation to speak up at this time.

On the other hand, they also knew that they were finished.

The fact that Yuan Shuo had discovered the matter and the way he was treating them indicated no matter how they tried to argue or speak up, nothing could change the fact that they were done for.

"Ma Jin! As the head of the Xijiang Province Martial Arts Association's enforcement team, you knew the law yet broke it, lacking fairness and integrity. You are relieved from your position, sent to solitary confinement for two years, and after which, you'll be expelled from the Martial Arts Association!"

"Xiang Fang! Two years in solitary confinement, then expelled from the Martial Arts Association!"

"Xiang Ji, two years in solitary confinement, then expelled from the Martial Arts Association!"

"…"

Everything that had happened in the conference room was clearly observed by Yuan Shuo from the adjacent room, so there was no possibility of him punishing the wrong people.

It could be said that each person Yuan Shuo called out was duly accounted for.

Soon after, Yuan Shuo had finished summarizing the punishments for those in the conference room who had erred, and he made a call to have people from the Xijiang Province Martial Arts Association take them away.

Once all these people had been escorted away, Yuan Shuo's gaze returned to Wang Ye, smiling as he spoke:

"Now, you needn't worry about dealing with the Martial Arts Association in the future."

Wang Ye also smiled, "Then the Martial Arts Association still has to thank President Yuan, and credit him with a great achievement."
