The top figure of the Jiangnan Sub-district Martial Arts Association! Even among all the associations, he was one of the strongest!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But Chen Fan’s words just now showed no respect whatsoever and even had a hint of threat.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Did he think that the President couldn’t do anything to him just because they were separated by a network line?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sun Wei watched Chen Fan, thinking to himself that he knew this wouldn’t end so easily.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, if Chen goes on like this, it would strain his future relationship with the headquarters. After all, that was the President!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Brother Chen, were you talking to me?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>To everyone’s surprise, Shi Tao’s tone was calm, not angry at all.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Yes, Brother Chen. I think you should listen to Xiao Hong’s explanation,\" Chang Fei quickly said.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He knew the President was protective of his people, especially since he regarded Ling Yu as his successor. The two were not father and son but had a father-son bond.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He had a hunch that the President might already know the inside story, which was why he didn’t want to pursue it further.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, Brother Chen seemed determined to get to the bottom of this. Avoiding it won’t solve the problem.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And excessively indulging and favoring Ling Yu, would that really cultivate a martial arts strongman capable of saving the Human Race from peril?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If possible, he hoped this incident would teach Ling Yu a harsh lesson, making him realize the world doesn’t revolve around him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xiao Hong was on edge again.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After a full three seconds, Shi Tao slowly uttered one word, \"Okay.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chang Fei looked at Xiao Hong, his tone strict: \"Repeat to the President what you told me before. Leave nothing out, understood?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"U-understood.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xiao Hong was like a wilting eggplant, deflated.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So he started again, recounting everything without any omission.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"President, it’s true I made a mistake, a big mistake, and I admit it. But if it wasn’t for Ling Yu approaching me and seducing me with words, I wouldn’t have made such a big mistake, President.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After speaking, Xiao Hong was a crying and snot-filled mess.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The room was deathly silent.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Everyone awaited the response from the other end of the phone.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Okay, I’ll go talk to him. I’ll call you back later.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Shi Tao said and then hung up the phone.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Beep, beep, beep...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chang Fei felt a headache coming on but still managed a smile, looking at Chen Fan: \"Brother Chen, you heard what the President said. Please wait a moment, and rest assured, the headquarters will definitely give you a satisfactory answer.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Really?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chen Fan’s expression was indifferent.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Yes, it’s true, Brother Chen.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chang Fei said hurriedly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But in fact, he had no idea what would happen.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If the President wanted to give Chen Fan a satisfactory explanation, he could just turn on the speakerphone. After all, Ling Yu was right beside him; having him face Xiao Hong directly would suffice.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But the President didn’t do that; instead, he hung up the phone.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>What happens next is uncertain.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xiao Hong licked his lips, filled with regret.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This feeling of being at the mercy of others was truly awful.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In a quiet room.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Shi Tao hung up the phone, turning to survey Ling Yu in front of him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The latter sat on a cushion, forcing a calm smile: \"Master, why are you looking at me like that? Did Uncle Chang call you? What did he say on the phone?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Do you really want to know?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Shi Tao asked.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ling Yu’s heart trembled.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In his memory, such expressions from his master usually came when he was being scolded.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In other words, something must have gone wrong on Xiao Hong’s side, not only failing but also letting Uncle Chang know.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Uncle Chang had called the master to accuse him?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Damn Xiao Hong, betraying him immediately after being caught? He really didn’t put him in his eyes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Anger surged in his heart, but on the surface, he forced a smile: \"Yes, I kind of want to know. But if it’s classified, then I’d rather not know.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Shi Tao looked at him, bluntly asking: \"Was Xiao Hong sent by you?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"M-master, what are you talking about? I don’t understand.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ling Yu tried to put on a perplexed expression, but his body trembled, and cold sweat dripped from his forehead.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Do you think you can fool me with your acting?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Shi Tao squinted.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ling Yu felt struck by lightning. The next moment, he fell to his knees, choking with sobs: \"Master, I was wrong. I shouldn’t have targeted that Alchemist or sent Xiao Hong. But my intentions were good!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Good intentions?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Shi Tao sneered.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Yes, Master.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ling Yu looked up with tearful eyes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I did it entirely for your sake. You’ve reached the Third Realm of True Essence. If you had enough top-grade True Qi Pills, you could ascend to the Fourth Realm and solidify a First-grade Martial Arts True Pill! At that level, even a Beast King-level Fierce Beast wouldn’t stand a chance against you. Yes, Elder Tang and the others can refine plenty of top-grade True Qi Pills, but what about time?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ling Yu’s eyes were blurry with tears: \"Who knows how long they’ll need? Maybe tomorrow, maybe a week, maybe even a month. So I thought if I could bring Chen Fan over to make top-grade True Qi Pills for you, you’d reach the Fourth Realm of True Essence in no time!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Nonsense!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Shi Tao was furious, \"What did you tell Xiao Hong? Need me to remind you again?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Master, I said it deliberately that way.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ling Yu shouted hoarsely: \"One can never know someone’s true intentions. If Xiao Hong knew you were involved, who knows what he’d do next?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But if it’s done in my name, it’s different, isn’t it?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Shi Tao was bewildered.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Master, I’m really thinking about you!\" Ling Yu seized the moment, \"You are the hope of our Jiangnan Sub-district Martial Arts Association. Only when you grow stronger will our association thrive, right?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>调Chen Fan can make so many top-grade True Qi Pills; can he use them all? Even if he can, wouldn’t it be better for you to use them?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Enough!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Shi Tao shouted, but anyone could tell that his anger had significantly lessened.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He stared into Ling Yu’s eyes, asking: \"Is that really what you think in your heart?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Master!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ling Yu raised his right hand and his chest: \"I swear, if there’s any falsehood in what I said, let me...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Enough!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Shi Tao cut him off: \"Even if that’s the case, do you think what you did was right?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ling Yu lowered his hand and his head.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"A gentleman knows what to do and what not to do. Have you forgotten my teachings?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Master, I know I was wrong.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ling Yu looked at the ground: \"I promise I’ll never do it again.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Oh, you.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Shi Tao sighed, looking helpless.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Fortunately, this didn’t turn into a disaster. But you won’t escape punishment. You will stay here in closed-door training for a month without going out. Understood?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Understood, Master.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ling Yu hurriedly nodded, feeling proud inside.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As expected, the best way to deal with Master was to act pitiful.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Denying and arguing never worked in front of him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Master, what will you do next?\" Ling Yu asked cautiously.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You stay here and train. I’ll handle this.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Shi Tao glanced at him, picked up his phone, and walked out.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Whew...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing Shi Tao’s back disappear from view, Ling Yu let out a long sigh of relief.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With Master’s words, this matter was settled.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A vicious glint flashed in his eyes. Damn you, Xiao Hong, good for nothing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Daring to betray me?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fine, once Master is in a good mood and I can leave, I’ll find you and settle the score!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Meanwhile, in another meeting room,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sun Wei grew increasingly anxious as time ticked by.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>What was the President doing? If he wanted to get to the bottom of this, he could just have Ling Yu and Xiao Hong confront each other?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chen Fan glanced at Xiao Hong, then at the time on the screen’s bottom right corner.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Nearly five minutes had passed since the phone hanging up.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He wanted to see how long they would keep him waiting.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"President, what are you doing?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chang Fei was burning with anxiety.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He frequently checked his watch and the phone, but there was still no call.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"President, you wouldn’t still be favoring Ling Yu, would you?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He had a bad feeling.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Knowing Shi Tao, this was highly possible.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If the President did favor Ling Yu, Brother Chen would be extremely displeased.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It’s hard to predict the outcome then.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just then, a video call request popped up on the computer.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chang Fei shivered upon seeing it was from Shi Tao!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Brother Chen, the President will join us via video. Be prepared.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Okay.\" Chen Fan nodded.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The screen split into two, with Chang Fei on the left and a stern, imposing middle-aged man exuding authority on the right.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His appearance alone froze Sun Wei and Xiao Hong in place.\u003C\u002Fp>",1545,"2026-06-06T15:42:49.905Z",1,"novelbin.me","042e53b3e485e2c53fc2ab3bc068adbdce9c3a69d8b07dd97050d948a4d1fd16","high-martial-arts-invincible-starts-from-basic-a-chapter-293","high-martial-arts-invincible-starts-from-basic-a-chapter-291",808,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fhigh-martial-arts-invincible-starts-from-basic-a-cover.jpg"]
