Chapter 522: Chapter 522 The Terror of the Martial Arts Overlord

Tang Wenqiang, Yan Feng, and Wang Hai trembled uncontrollably. The Ye Feng they saw before them no longer seemed human, but rather a terrifying beast poised to devour its chosen prey.

Is this the terror of a Martial Arts Overlord? The Tang Family of Sea City also had a Martial Arts Overlord in their service. In fact, one of the Guest Elders Tang Wenqiang had brought with him was one, which was why he could withstand this terrifying pressure. Yan Feng and Wang Hai, however, could not.

THUD!

The terrifying pressure struck them like a falling meteorite. It was overwhelming. They collapsed to their knees, their faces twisted with humiliation as the very earth cracked beneath them.

"AH—!"

Yan Feng and Wang Hai cried out in humiliation. They tried to stand, but the pressure was so immense they couldn’t even lift their heads. 𝐟𝕣𝕖𝐞𝐰𝕖𝚋𝐧𝗼𝚟𝐞𝕝.𝗰𝐨𝐦

"Tang Wenqiang, you kneel too!" Ye Feng roared again.

Suddenly, a beam of sword light shot from Kong Tianjian toward the Tang Family’s Guest Elder. The Martial Arts Overlord scrambled to defend himself, no longer able to help Tang Wenqiang resist the pressure from Ye Feng.

BOOM!

With a loud thud, Tang Wenqiang also collapsed to his knees. The injuries he had sustained in Three Prefectures Town hadn’t completely healed, and kneeling forced the wounds to split open again, causing him to scream in agony.

The onlookers gasped in shock, utterly bewildered. Ye Feng had told the three men to kneel, and they had actually done it. Just how strong was he? They knew it was the pressure of a Martial Artist, but this was the first time they had ever witnessed Ye Feng’s true power.

"If you knew it would come to this, why did you start it in the first place? At first, I only wanted an apology, but you insisted on forcing my hand. Now, you can kneel and apologize," Ye Feng said with a cold laugh.

"Ye Feng, you madman! Do you have any idea what the consequences are for offending our Tang Family of Sea City?" Tang Wenqiang roared.

Ye Feng strode over and stomped on Tang Wenqiang’s head, grinding it into the floor. "Threaten me one more time, and I’ll send you to your grave this instant. Do you believe me?"

Tang Wenqiang dared not make another sound. Yan Feng and Wang Hai were already too terrified to speak. This was horrifying. For the first time, they truly felt how formidable Ye Feng was. It was simply shocking.

Is this the combat power of a Martial Arts Overlord?

"We’re sorry! We were wrong! We’ll never dare to do it again!" The first to apologize were the heads of the vassal families and the various company bosses.

"Get lost. Take your children and leave. From now on, conduct yourselves with a little more restraint, or don’t blame me for being impolite!" Ye Feng waved his hand dismissively, and the group scrambled away in a panic.

"I... I was wrong too! I hope President Ye can be magnanimous! Please, let us go!" Yan Feng apologized. He could barely take it anymore. He felt as if his heart was about to leap out of his chest. The terrifying pressure was suffocating him.

"Family Head Yan is quite sensible," Ye Feng said indifferently. "However, remember to discipline Yan Duo properly when you get back. The next time you cross someone you can’t handle, they might not be as reasonable as I am. Get lost!"

"I also apologize! My son, Wang Teng, has been far too spoiled. I will definitely educate him properly when I return," Wang Hai also shouted.

"You can all leave as well. Don’t let there be a next time!" Ye Feng waved his hand.

Soon, only the members of the Tang Family remained.

The Tang Family’s Martial Arts Overlord was still engaged with Kong Tianjian. Although Kong Tianjian was still only a Tenth Rank Great Grandmaster and not yet a Martial Arts Overlord, his attacks were incredibly powerful. Every sword strike gave his opponent a major headache. Furthermore, Iron Heart was looming ominously nearby. The Tang Family’s Martial Arts Overlord was only an entry-level one, and fear began to creep into his heart.

"I... I apologize!" Tang Wenqiang grit his teeth so hard he nearly drew blood.

He had apologized to Yang Qi in Three Prefectures Town, and now he was apologizing to Ye Feng here. He had completely lost all face. He was furious and resentful. He wished he could kill Ye Feng. At this moment, however, he could only apologize. Otherwise, he might not leave this place alive.

"Heh, an apology will do," Ye Feng sneered. "You can all leave now. I hope your apologies are sincere. Otherwise, you’ll face something far crueler. Perhaps you’ll be leaving your lives behind in Thunder City!"

With that, he turned and left, returning to the private room with Kong Tianjian and Iron Heart.

"Is everything taken care of?" Yang Qi asked with a smile. "Now, I will formally appoint Ye Feng as the president of the Star Shining Society!"

The Star Shining Society was an organization Yang Qi had established to train Martial Artists. ’Star Shining’ expressed the hope that every member would shine like a star and that the core members would be true elites. Currently, the Star Shining Society had only seven core members: Ye Feng, Kong Tianjian, Lei Tingjun, Lei Yingying, Elder Chen Guo, Yao Ran, and Huang Borren.

Core members were also known as Gold Members. Below them were the Silver Members, who were recruited by core members and could be considered Gold Member candidates. At the bottom were the Bronze Members, also known as peripheral or preparatory members. They were unaware of the core members’ identities and only took orders from Silver Members. The requirements were not high; as long as they were useful, they were accepted.

Yang Qi only interacted with the core members, and sometimes only with the president, Ye Feng. This arrangement offered greater security. As for Iron Bone, Iron Heart, and Wolf King, they were Yang Qi’s personal retinue and would exist in a parallel structure to the Star Shining Society. Establishing the Star Shining Society was the main reason for Yang Qi’s gathering today, as he needed an organization to help him with matters he couldn’t personally handle.

"Ye Feng, all of you core members can go to Bai Shan Estate for your cultivation. The cultivation conditions there are unmatched anywhere else in Jingnan Prefecture. No, it’s possible such conditions can’t be found anywhere in the entire Dragon Country. Also, Elder Lei, you don’t need to get involved. We’re friends!" Yang Qi said with a smile.

"No problem!" Lei Qingtian laughed. He was getting on in years, and simply fulfilling his public duties was already exhausting. Yang Qi was very thoughtful.

"Now that the meeting is over, let’s enjoy a good meal!" Yang Qi said with a smile.

「Meanwhile」

Tang Wenqiang had returned to his accommodations, summoning Yan Feng and Wang Hai to join him.

Tang Wenqiang could not bear the day’s humiliation. Upon returning to his quarters, he spat out a mouthful of blood and looked as if he were on the verge of death. Fortunately, it was still night and news traveled slowly while most people were asleep. If it had been daytime, word of this event would have likely already reached Sea City. How could he possibly show his face then?

"I will make them die! I don’t care who they are, they all must die!" Tang Wenqiang wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, looking utterly crazed.

Yan Feng and Wang Hai’s expressions were grim. They wanted revenge too, but at the moment, it seemed they lacked the power to do so.

"Brother Wenqiang, you’re from the Tang Family of Sea City. You’re powerful and can find formidable experts. But what about us? Neither of our families can find a Martial Arts Overlord to contend with them. How can we get revenge?" Yan Feng couldn’t help but say.

To be honest, he had already resigned himself to defeat. As much as he hated it, he knew this was a score they could likely never settle.

"Indeed, our Wang Family doesn’t have a Martial Arts Overlord either. We simply can’t stand against Ye Feng!" Wang Hai also shook his head.
