I am a high-level martial arts master.

Helped up by his companions, Li Xi leaned against the wall, resentment rising in his heart.

"That old dog Feng Yue openly favors Ye Li because of his talent; now we can only pin our hopes on the Enforcement Hall."

The disciples of the Enforcement Hall, who were initially prepared to handle the matter leniently after hearing Feng Yue's assessment, frowned involuntarily upon hearing Li Xi's complaint:

"Not only did they injure people, but they also forcibly stole the Body Tempering Pills?"

Seeing the frown on the face of the person in charge of law enforcement, Li Xi was overjoyed and said:

"Reporting to your Excellency, Ye Li forcibly seized the Body Tempering Pill right in front of me. He must still have my Li family's porcelain bottle and four Body Tempering Pills on him!"

As Li Xi spoke, his gaze was fixed on Ye Li. Ye Li was in his sight the whole time, making it impossible for him to dispose of the stolen goods!

To be honest, Li Xi felt a surge of joy when he saw Ye Li take away his Body Tempering Pill!

A peasant is indeed a peasant; he forgets the risks when he sees profit, and his bones are steeped in an indelible taste of poverty!

When the onlookers heard that Ye Li had forcibly taken Li Xi's Body Tempering Pill, a sense of schadenfreude arose in their hearts.

Seeing these geniuses suffer misfortune fills them with a genuine sense of pleasure.

Under Li Xi's intense gaze, Ye Li stood obediently to the side, completely unperturbed.

"Where are there any extra Body Tempering Pills?" he thought to himself.

He gave two of the porcelain bottles to Feng Yue, and ate one himself.

The remaining one was put back into the original porcelain bottle, and it could be easily claimed that it was the one awarded to the top scorer in the monthly exam.

The four body-tempering pills were put to good use, and the tent was leveled.

He was in a blind spot at the time, so Li Xi couldn't see him at all. Even when the Enforcement Hall searched him, he wasn't afraid at all.

This is yet another pinnacle of strategic brilliance following Ye Li's faked death and reincarnation into another world—Ye Li really takes it!!

At this moment, Ye Li was completely fearless; whatever he found was his!

But what happened next was beyond Ye Li's expectations.

At the scene, Li Xi interrupted, causing the captain of the enforcement team to frown:

"He stole your Body Tempering Pills, so what? Just take it!"

"You think the Azure Dragon Gang is your home, with your dad backing you up?"

Ye Li: Huh? ???

Li Xi: Huh? ? ?

The onlookers: Huh? ???

At this moment, the words of the Enforcement Hall stunned everyone, and they all stared at the Enforcement Hall with incomprehension!

This is the Hall of Enforcement!

Ye Li: "Could it be that I've met a kindred spirit, a fellow student of law?"

Seeing the crowd's confusion, the enforcement captain sneered, "Feng Yue already said that you two joined the gang at the same time. You provoked him first, and since you were less skilled, you deserved to be robbed after losing."

Li Xi opened his mouth, looking at the enforcement captain, hesitant to speak, then finally said:

"So your Enforcement Hall just watched him forcibly seize the property and did nothing? What kind of law are you enforcing?!"

The enforcement captain scoffed, "You're trying to talk law into us gangsters? I find it laughable!"

"Now that you've joined the gang, don't bring in the uncivilized and corrupt practices of the powerful families outside!"

"If you're a gang member and you go to the Enforcement Hall for help when you encounter problems, then what's the point of practicing martial arts!"

"Our Enforcement Hall enforces the laws of the gang. Since your Body Tempering Pill was brought in from outside the gang, not a reward from within, what obligation do we have to help you get it back?"

"You, a direct descendant of the main clan, can't even beat a commoner who joined at the same time. You're definitely a lazy good-for-nothing!"

"The common people have already defeated you through their own efforts, and they should be grateful they weren't killed. Do you expect us, the Enforcement Hall, to bully them with our power?"

The enforcement captain looked at Li Xi with disdain: "You're trash, you don't even deserve to take the Body Tempering Pill. I think you deserve to be robbed. If you're going to rob someone, rob them hard. Giving it to you is a complete waste!"

"If you're going to be any better, then work hard at martial arts and take them back yourself. Next time you steal four Body Tempering Pills from him, I'll pretend I didn't see it!!!"

Silence...dead silence...

As the enforcement captain launched into a long speech, many of the newcomers realized that they had joined a gang that operated outside the law!

"Well said!" Ye Li exclaimed, almost slapping his thigh in delight.

He never expected that the enforcement captain would be so strict in enforcing the law.

He's the kind of legal mentor I've always longed for!

Li Xi, standing to the side, was furious, but dared not defy the Enforcement Hall.

He could only suppress his resentment, his forehead veins throbbing wildly, as if he was about to vomit blood!

"Alright, if you're useless, you have to accept it!" The enforcement captain waved his hand and said, "Go lie down in the gang's pharmacy, don't waste my time!"

After saying that, the enforcement captain looked at Ye Li, his tone softening:

"Work hard! Coach Feng just told me you're a genius, don't let these powerful families look down on you!"

After saying this, the group ignored everyone present and left with their men.

Seeing that the matter had been settled, Feng Yue said loudly, "Alright, since everything is fine now, everyone can disperse."

"And Ye Li, although Li Xi provoked you, you went too far. You're punished by facing the wall for three days as a minor punishment to serve as a warning!"

This was clearly a case of handling things with care, and Ye Li had no objection to the arrangement.

The wall doesn't specify which side it's on, so finding a quiet, secluded corner won't interfere with my practice.

After the disciples who had come to watch the commotion dispersed, the two ignored Li Xi inside the room and walked out of the shared bed.

Ye Li was still a little confused:

"That's it? I thought we'd have to do a search just for show."

"What else do you want?" Feng Yue was somewhat puzzled by Ye Li's sentiments.

"Those who are considered useless are not well-liked within the gang. The difference in status between menial disciples, ordinary gang members, and core disciples is like heaven and earth."

"You have more talent and will definitely be a core disciple in the future. It would be a shady deal if we didn't favor you. Shouldn't geniuses be given preferential treatment?"

"Does being a genius mean you get preferential treatment?" Ye Li murmured to himself.

Listening to Feng Yue's explanation, Ye Li finally realized that he had overcomplicated things and had actually applied female-oriented thinking to martial arts novels.

He was misled by the civilization and rule of law of modern society!

This is a male-oriented fantasy world where might makes right!

To do something wrong and then try to frame someone else—that's incredibly low-level!

In male-oriented fantasy novels, being bad at something is the original sin!

The lives of ten thousand ordinary people are not as valuable as those of a high-level martial artist!

This event is also recorded in "Perfect World".

Shi Yi seized the Supreme Bone, but the die was cast, and his exceptional talent was also protected.

If clans operate this way, then the Azure Dragon Gang, a gang without blood ties, prioritizes strength even more.

It can be said that until this moment, after this incident...

Ye Li finally saw the true nature of the world's underworld and realized that he had made the right decision not to pretend to be a good-for-nothing.

If you usually appear to be of average talent, the situation might be completely different now!

Feng Yue laughed and waved his hand, saying, "Alright, you've offended Li Xi, so you'd better be careful from now on."

"He won't be able to get out of bed for the next month, but when he returns home after a month, you may face retaliation from the Li family."

"Thank you for the reminder, Coach."

Ye Li said solemnly, "This disciple will definitely work harder and become a core disciple before Li Xi returns home."

"Oh..." Feng Yue raised an eyebrow.

He had only been in the group for two months before entering the country; he hadn't seen many geniuses like this in the past ten years.

"Alright! If you can really break through within a month, with that kind of talent, the guild will guarantee your safety!"
