Chapter 265 Regret
"Ming... Brother Ming!"
Huang Tingting covered her mouth, unable to believe it.
She never expected such an outcome!
A one-hit kill!
The entire venue fell into a dead silence, only the sound of gasping could be heard.
Even Elder Lin was shocked. Although he had vaguely guessed that Chen Xuan's strength was extraordinary,
he was still taken aback by the one-hit kill of Qu Haoming, who possessed strength comparable to a ninth-grade internal energy master.
Lin Lei, who had been ridiculing Chen Xuan, felt as if he had just been slapped across the face by this scene!
"The martial artist from Huangshan Martial Arts Hall has been thrown out of the ring. Qingshan Martial Arts Hall wins!"
After a moment, the staff of the Martial Alliance recovered from their shock and quickly announced the result of the match!
The audience below also reacted, their faces instantly filled with excitement.
"I want to join Qingcheng Martial Arts Hall!"
"Too powerful! They defeated the Huangshan Martial Arts Hall with just one move!"
"Qingcheng Martial Arts Hall is mighty, Huangshan Martial Arts Hall should disband immediately!"
"Huangshan Martial Arts Hall has lost several times already, hurry up and disband!"
Huang Wenshan's face turned ashen, and he was filled with regret.
If he had chosen to believe Chen Xuan, all the glory today would have belonged to Huangshan Martial Arts Hall!
Subsequently, Huang Wenshan and his team from Huangshan Martial Arts Hall left the Martial Alliance in disgrace.
"Mr. Chen's strength is indeed extraordinary. This old man is impressed!" Elder Lin clasped his fists, his face full of respect.
In the martial path, strength is paramount. Now that Chen Xuan's strength far exceeded his imagination, Elder Lin dared not be presumptuous.
"Elder Lin is too kind."
Chen Xuan waved his hand and got straight to the point: "Elder Lin, regarding Qingcheng Martial Arts Hall joining Xuanji Hall..."
Elder Lin said decisively, "Mr. Chen, rest assured, I will issue the announcement of Qingcheng Martial Arts Hall joining Xuanji Hall shortly!"
This time, even Lin Lei said nothing, instead showing eagerness.
"Thank you for your trouble, Elder Lin." Chen Xuan smiled.
Black Tiger, who was following behind, was so excited he almost jumped when he heard the news.
Qingcheng Martial Arts Hall was one of the top three martial arts halls in Jiangzhou. With Qingcheng Martial Arts Hall joining Xuanji Hall, Xuanji Hall would grow even stronger!
His status would also be greatly elevated.
Lin Lei hurried up to Chen Xuan, his smile somewhat awkward, but he seemed sincere: "Mr. Chen, I apologize. I spoke rudely to you just now. I hope Mr. Chen can forgive me, otherwise my father will break my legs."
Chen Xuan smiled: "From now on, you will also be one of Xuanji Hall's people. If you perform well for Xuanji Hall's development, I will not dwell on this matter."
Lin Lei was overjoyed and nodded vigorously: "Mr. Chen, rest assured, for Xuanji Hall's development, I will do my utmost!"
Afterward, Chen Xuan and Black Tiger left the Martial Alliance and drove towards Qingwu Mountain Villa.
As soon as Chen Xuan left, Qingshan Martial Arts Hall announced through its official website that Qingcheng Martial Arts Hall had joined Xuanji Hall!
For a time, the entire Jiangzhou was shocked!
Qingshan Martial Arts Hall had consistently been among the top three martial arts halls in Jiangzhou. Now, after defeating Huangshan Martial Arts Hall, they were at the peak of their popularity, yet they chose to join a new force that was barely heard of!
What was the origin of this Xuanji Hall?
With the announcement of this news, Xuanji Hall attracted the attention of many people!
...
Along the way, Black Tiger grinned from ear to ear, smugly saying: "Mr. Chen, with Qingcheng Martial Arts Hall joining Xuanji Hall now, it will not only strengthen Xuanji Hall but also build its reputation. Our Xuanji Hall can now be considered one of the top five forces in Jiangzhou. Of course, this does not include you."
He knew that if Chen Xuan were included, Xuanji Hall's influence would be extraordinary.
"Not enough, we need to add more fuel to the fire." Chen Xuan was not happy, shook his head, and said in a deep voice.
At this moment, Chen Xuan was still rational, not becoming arrogant because of the achievements he had made.
The top five martial arts forces in Jiangzhou, while impressive within Jiangzhou, were like ants compared to the Su family in the capital, like dragons meeting mere mortals, not worth mentioning.
"Mr. Chen, then what do you mean?"
Black Tiger scratched his head, feeling that Chen Xuan was too hasty, but he did not dare to say anything.
"One Qingcheng Martial Arts Hall can only build the reputation and strength of Xuanji Hall, but it is not enough to make Xuanji Hall stand tall," Chen Xuan explained.
"Then what should we do? Please advise, Mr. Chen!"
Chen Xuan instructed: "You spread the word that the Spirit Replenishing Pill will no longer be sold to the public. It will only be sold to members of Xuanji Hall, and at half the original price."
"Ah? Mr. Chen, that's not possible!"
Black Tiger was stunned and cried out, "The profit of the Spirit Replenishing Pill is five times that of the Minor Replenishing Pill. If it's not sold to the public, and only consumed by Xuanji Hall members, our profits will be greatly reduced. Moreover, the price is halved?"
When the Minor Replenishing Pill first appeared, it was highly sought after. However, the market was now close to saturation. Instead, the Spirit Replenishing Pill had become the object of pursuit for martial artists, with both popularity and profits soaring.
The main buyers of the pills were various martial artists, as well as those attached to various influential families.
Xuanji Hall did not have many members. If it were only sold to Xuanji Hall members, the profits from the pills, let alone halved, might plummet to the bottom.
"Money can be earned at any time. Our primary goal now is to develop Xuanji Hall."
Chen Xuan remained unmoved, his sharp gaze fixed on Black Tiger, his expression solemn: "Black Tiger, you must remember that we cannot only focus on immediate profits but also look to the future. Furthermore, you should not limit your vision to Jiangzhou. In the future, Xuanji Hall will appear on the provincial stage, and even take root in the capital!"
Chen Xuan was eager to develop Xuanji Hall now because he wanted Xuanji Hall to have the strength to establish itself in the provincial city when he entered it!
And in the future, he wanted Xuanji Hall to possess the strength to contend with the Su family in the capital!
Black Tiger was stunned, looking at Chen Xuan in a daze.
"Do you understand?" Chen Xuan patted Black Tiger's head.
"Although I don't fully understand, it sounds amazing! Mr. Chen, I think I know what to do!"
Black Tiger was initially somewhat confused, but soon his eyes burned with excitement.
Provincial city?
Capital?
Just thinking about it made him excited!
"Good to know!"
Chen Xuan looked at Black Tiger's gaze and knew he understood, so he said no more.
Just then, Chen Xuan's phone suddenly rang.
Seeing that it was Su Yunxi's call,
Chen Xuan immediately answered it.
"Chen Xuan, are you free now?"
Su Yunxi's voice was filled with urgency.
"Just say it if there's something," Chen Xuan said immediately.
Soon, Su Yunxi told Chen Xuan what had happened.
It turned out that Su Yunxi had arranged to meet the project manager of the Song Corporation today, so she sent a director to discuss the cooperation.
However, during the discussion, the Song Corporation's project manager made inappropriate demands.
If it were a matter of demanding financial kickbacks, it would be easy to handle. But this Song Corporation project manager demanded that the beautiful female director sent by Su Yunxi accompany him to bed. Otherwise, the cooperation would be off.
The beautiful director refused, but the Song Corporation project manager deliberately smashed an antique vase worth thirty million yuan that he had brought, claiming that the beautiful director had broken it. He refused to accept compensation and insisted that the beautiful director sleep with him to settle the matter.
Chen Xuan's expression turned cold. He turned to Black Tiger and said, "I have something to attend to. You can go ahead."
"Mr. Chen, I'll go with you," Black Tiger volunteered.
"No need, you go and announce the news about the Spirit Replenishing Pill not being sold to the public," Chen Xuan said.
Black Tiger thought about it and nodded in agreement.
Besides announcing that the Spirit Replenishing Pill would not be sold to the public, the merger between Xuanji Hall and Qingcheng Martial Arts Hall also had many matters that fell upon his shoulders.
Chen Xuan drove off in his car.
On the way, Chen Xuan tried to call Song Minting, but the call did not go through. It seemed that he could only resolve this matter himself for the time being.
