Martial Master

After Qin Chen and the others left, the farce in the market finally came to an end.

The crowd that had been watching gradually dispersed.

Only Captain Luo of the Law Enforcement Team and others remained, looking dazed, but no one paid attention to them anymore.

"Captain, what should we do now?"

One trembling team member cautiously asked.

"What else can we do? Let's retreat quickly."

Even Young Master Qin was beaten, the Li family has already declined, and now the Zhang family is the biggest beneficiary. If we continue to stay, it would be embarrassing.

They would never dare to dismantle the Zhang family's shop, even if they were given ten more guts.

A passerby strutted over, but at this moment could only leave in disgrace.

Watching Luo Ling and the others depart, a cold glint flashed in Zhang Xi's eyes.

If it weren’t for Young Master Chen stepping in today, the Zhang family's shop would have probably been dismantled for real.

"Rest assured, Master Liu Guang won’t let these Law Enforcement Team people get away easily."

A steward who stayed in the market to transfer responsibilities to the Zhang family couldn’t help but chuckle lightly.

He knew very well what kind of temper Master Liu Guang had; he was definitely someone who despised evil. How could he let this group from the Law Enforcement Team leave safely? There would surely be consequences awaiting them.

Imagining the tragic fate that awaited them, the steward couldn’t help but feel a moment of silence for them.

Back at the Alchemy Pavilion.

Upon receiving the news, Pavilion Master Xiao Ya actually personally stood at the door to welcome them.

"Young Master Chen, long time no see. First, congratulations on obtaining the qualification for the second round of the Five Nations Competition."

With a charming smile, Xiao Ya’s face radiated beauty, giving a strong visual shock.

"Who is this sister? She's so beautiful."

Zhang Ying's eyes lit up, completely entranced, his eyes gleaming with admiration.

Lin Tian beside him also felt his spirit shake and was taken aback, secretly amazed.

"Haha, sister? This little brother is really interesting. Young Master Chen, is this your friend?"

Xiao Ya chuckled, looking at Zhang Ying. After sensing his cultivation, her eyes sparkled: "Oh, this little brother seems exceptionally gifted. At such a young age, he is already a late-stage Earth Level expert. Truly impressive."

"Hehe, this sister, what more needs to be said? I, Zhang Ying, am a top genius among the best. If it weren’t for not being able to participate in this Five Nations Competition, the runner-up would definitely be mine."

Zhang Ying boasted shamelessly, showing no embarrassment in front of everyone.

"Runner-up?" Xiao Ya's eyes widened.

The others also looked on in confusion.

"Why runner-up?"

"Ahem." Zhang Ying cleared his throat and scratched his head, grinning: "The champion will definitely be Young Master Chen's. As for me, being the runner-up is more than enough."

Pfft!

Everyone burst into laughter, looking at Qin Chen, finding Zhang Ying quite the character.

"Master Xiao, this is Zhang Ying, and this is Lin Tian. They are both my friends." Qin Chen introduced with a smile.

"Master?"

This time, it was Zhang Ying and Lin Tian's turn to be shocked. They didn’t expect such a beautiful woman to be the master of the Alchemy Pavilion.

Moreover, she was so familiar with Young Master Chen; he was simply too impressive.

No wonder the Alchemy Pavilion had been so supportive of the Zhang family earlier.

However, recalling that he had just flirted with her, cold sweat suddenly broke out on Zhang Ying's back.

The Zhang family had just established a relationship with the Alchemy Pavilion; if she got angry and severed their cooperation, his father would surely break his legs.

"Ahem, Master Xiao, I was just trying to lighten the mood. Haha, I didn’t mean any offense. Please don’t take it to heart."

Zhang Ying's legs felt weak as he spoke with a gloomy face.

"Don't worry, I will be very concerned."

Xiao Ya smirked, her gaze passing over Zhang Ying and Lin Tian, both of whom were secretly astonished.
