The young man was slapped by Gao Gu, stumbling a step backward, his face immediately displaying an expression of grievance.
"What do you mean by that, I, is it easy being your follower? When have I not considered your interests, and now you, you actually slap me?"
Gao Gu, standing aside, flicked his sleeve, "Get lost, must I shout it out?"
Meanwhile, at the Martial Arts Hall, Li Chen had incapacitated half of the experts, including those masters he had injured, by crippling their energy channels. The remaining half weren't killed; it was purely a martial exchange, and Li Chen let them pass directly.
The group of masters that passed were ecstatic, quickly running towards the exit of the Martial Arts Hall.
Li Chen stood in the center of the arena as the audience and reporters on-site were screaming and becoming agitated wildly.
The martial arts competition had thus ended, and at the same time, instructions had come from Secretary Ye, requesting Li Chen to visit the city hall.
