Chapter 140 The Aftershocks of the Martial Arts Battle [Bonus Chapter for Monthly Tickets]

Hearing that familiar voice, Liu Ma struggled to lift his head.

What came into view was none other than his eldest sister, Yu Qianxia, ​​who was originally supposed to be developing the group's business in the 'Seventh Floating City - Martial Arts Capital'.

Yu Qianxia leaned against the broken wall, her black suit jacket casually draped over her shoulders as a cape.

His abdomen and wrists were wrapped in fighter-specific training bandages, and he had a toothpick of unknown origin dangling from his mouth, exuding an aura of yakuza.

"Boss, when did you get here?"

Liu Ma tried to stand up by leaning against the wall, but as soon as he exerted any force, a tearing pain shot through his bones, and in the end he could only lean against the pile of rubble in a sorry state.

Yu Qianxia, ​​biting a toothpick, smiled and said, "I arrived half an hour ago."

Liu Ma was taken aback, and then subconsciously wanted to say something.

But Yu Qianxia interrupted her, glaring back at her.

"Don't ask me why I won't help you. Not interfering in the affairs of local association star envoys is a rule that our Qianxia Group set a hundred years ago, and I think you know that too."

"Besides, they didn't really intend to make things difficult for you. Otherwise, do you think you'd still be talking to me? You'd be down there complaining to my deadbeat dad about how bad the signal is in hell and we can't get any information at all."

Liu Ma remained silent in the face of Yu Qianxia's sarcasm.

Seeing him like this, Yu Qianxia immediately strode over.

He then squatted down with a very yakuza-like air, resting his arms on his knees, and casually began to examine his injuries.

"Not bad, not bad. Although you're in a sorry state right now, that guy named Shuimo was very careful and didn't hurt you. He just gave you a little lesson."

“Little Liu, I’ve told you before that the outside world is vast and full of monsters, but you just wouldn’t believe me. You always say you know what real monsters look like.”

"How are you now? Do you realize how naive you were before?"

Liu Ma didn't answer, but his lost and dejected look was undoubtedly the best answer.

"Tsk, you look really ugly."

Despite being injured, Yu Qianxia still punched the guy in the head without any mercy.

The blow made Liu Ma's eyes gleam with adrenaline.

Yu Qianxia stood up and dusted off her pants: "You can't even get up after losing a game? When did we, the people of Martial Capital, become such cowards?"

"Get up. I think you should be able to start some of the training I have arranged for you now. After all, you have already gained the most precious thing, which is the taste of defeat."

Hearing Yu Qianxia's words, Liu Ma gritted his teeth and slowly stood up, supporting himself against the wall.

Just as he was about to leave, he suddenly noticed Chen Kong, who was also propped up by some odds and ends in the corner, his face as pale as paper.

After a moment's hesitation, Liu Ma said, "Big Sister, I think..."

Yu Qianxia raised her head, a slight smile playing on her lips as she bit her toothpick. She glanced at Chen Kong, who was pale in the corner, and said nonchalantly, "Take him with you. Although I can't see a trace of martial spirit in this guy, it's not difficult if it's just to help him make up for his past weaknesses."

"But if you think you can defeat that guy just like that, then I think you're going to be disappointed."

"Because my fighting spirit tells me that the guy named Shuimo is far more terrifying than you think."

"I really don't know why someone like him would choose to stay in a run-down place like the Steam City. The Seven Floating Cities are clearly the most suitable stage for a monster like him."

After saying that, Yu Qianxia didn't say anything more and walked straight out of the underground factory.

After following Yu Qianxia out of there.

Dust and the audience in the dimension witnessed a scene they would never forget.

Dozens of burly men in black suits stood in a line and, upon Yu Qianxia's appearance, shouted imposingly, "Greetings, Boss!"

The synchronized, exaggerated sound waves not only made Chen Kong's ears ring, but also scared away some citizens from the Fourth District who wanted to watch the show. Yu Qianxia waved her hand casually, then walked straight to a luxurious, extended version of a hovercar.

The henchman in front of the car opened the door, and Yu Qianxia got in directly.

But when she saw Chen Kong and Liu Ma still standing outside like two wooden statues, she immediately said impatiently, "What are you all standing there for? Get your asses in here right now!"

"I don't have time to play these pointless games of self-pity with you kids."

"If you want to become stronger, then you should give me every spare moment and climb up the ladder at all costs."

"Only in this way can you live up to the enormous potential hidden within you little monsters."

After being scolded by Yu Qianxia.

Chen Kong and Liu Ma exchanged a glance, and immediately, like two innocent young men, obediently climbed into Yu Qianxia's car.

"Boss, what are you doing here all of a sudden?"

As the hovercar ascended, Liu Ma immediately asked out of curiosity.

"What else could it be? It's because you broke our company's rules, which caused customers to complain to me."

"Otherwise, do you think I would have come to this remote place?"

Upon hearing this, Liu Ma immediately scratched his head awkwardly and said no more.

Fortunately, Yu Qianxia wasn't really angry. Instead, she turned to look at the 'Upper City District' that they were about to arrive at.

"But you don't need to feel too guilty, after all, it's one thing for customers to complain, but they're even spreading rumors that our Qianxia Group is a heartless group that only takes money and doesn't do anything."

“Being complained about is one thing, but defaming our group’s reputation is another.”

"I hate it when people gossip about me behind my back."

Looking at Yu Qianxia's cruel smile, Liu Ma subconsciously shivered.

Because he knew all too well what the boss's smile meant.

In this steam-filled city, someone is about to suffer misfortune.

After this conversation, the anime switched to a scene showing a large number of hovercars driving into the upper city.

Meanwhile, the comments section exploded with excitement.

"Hey, is this the main characters' master from season two? He has such a powerful aura!"

'Martial Arts Capital? Qianxia Group? This background suggests a hidden bigwig!'

'It's a tough situation right now, but it feels like the main characters are about to get a power-up!'

'You just wait, ink painting, the protagonist will beat you up sooner or later!'

Outside the car window, the outline of the steam city gradually became clear.

Inside the car, the two children of stars lowered their heads, their eyes filled with something other than resentment.

A spark called 'Awakening' is about to reignite from the ashes of 'Defeat'!
