My Brilliant CEO Wife

Chapter 990 - 992: Elder Li Chickened Out

"Old Li, I think this plan is feasible!" Elder Wang noticed Elder Li's hesitation and suddenly spoke to Elder Li, then secretly gave him a look, indicating that he should glance at a young man nearby!Elder Li understood and looked over. When he saw the handsome young man, he was enlightened and said, "Since everyone prefers this one-on-one challenge format, let's change the rules today: each party can only send one person to fight, free to challenge!

For example, if the first to fight is Wallace from Germany, he has the right to challenge anyone confirmed by other forces. The one who remains standing on the stage in the end will be the champion of this Martial Arts Competition!"

Hearing Elder Li's words, most people cheered and danced happily, especially those weaker in strength. This way, they wouldn't have to go up and fight desperately!

The strongest from each faction smiled faintly, evidently more willing to accept this method, as it provided an opportunity to finish off those they disliked!

Tang Rou saw this, hurriedly jumped onto the platform, and said to Elder Li, "Elder Li, you can't do this, it'll create chaos!"

Elder Li, seeing someone dare to refute him, coldly looked at Tang Rou and said domineeringly, "You're merely an Outer Sect Minister, what right do you have to meddle in my affairs? Do you think you can change the decisions I make? Get down!"

Elder Li's tone was extremely harsh, waving at Tang Rou as if shooing away a fly.

"Though I am just an Outer Sect Minister, this event was entrusted to me by Leader Long. Your casual alteration of the competition rules could very well cause chaos in this Martial Arts Competition!"

Tang Rou was not one to be easily bullied. She had addressed him as Elder out of respect for his position, but now that he spoke so rudely, why should she still treat him politely?

"Rubbish, entrusted to you? Do you qualify? Either get down now, or I'll take you down myself!" Elder Li was furious, seeing his plan about to proceed smoothly only to be obstructed, making him livid!

At this moment, Elder Li's eyes were filled with killing intent, looking as if he would really strike Tang Rou if she didn't step aside!

"Elder Li, even though Minister Tang's position may be slightly lower than yours, she's still part of Dragon Scale's management. What do you mean by speaking this way? Do you not consider us colleagues?"

White Tiger and Black Tortoise stepped forward, glaring straight at Elder Li from below the platform, rebuking him firmly.

"Haha, how ridiculous. It's been a long time since I roamed the martial world, and now even you young ones dare defy me? Seems I need to help Long Shaoyang clean up Dragon Scale from within!" Elder Li sneered, disappearing from the platform in the next instant, reappearing in front of White Tiger and Black Tortoise!

A palm strike sent White Tiger and Black Tortoise flying without the slightest chance to resist!

Seeing the two spit blood as they fell, Elder Li flicked his hand dismissively, clasping his hands behind his back with a cold snort, "I'll spare you this time, but next time, I'll kill without mercy!"

Elder Li's display drew many gazes!

Early Stage of Sixth Grade!

Many didn't expect that an Elder casually sent by Dragon Scale would already possess the strength of Early Stage Sixth Grade!

Originally, people were upset about Long Shaoyang not coming personally, feeling he was disregarding them. But now, it seemed like they weren't being too overlooked!

After all, in any force or sect, Sixth Grade is considered top-notch, while those with higher strength are mostly cultivating or in seclusion, generally uninvolved in worldly affairs!

So, those active internationally or famous are mainly Sixth Grade masters!

Long Shaoyang is like this, with Late Stage Sixth Grade strength, not reaching the legendary Seventh Grade!

After all these years, those known to have reached Seventh Grade are few and far between!

"Isn't it a bit too ruthless to hurt your colleagues?" Tang Rou watched White Tiger and Black Tortoise get injured, coldly looking at the approaching Elder Li, her face veiled in coldness!

"Ruthless? Get down, or you'll be the next injured. Don't say you're just a mere Outer Sect Minister; even if Long Shaoyang were here, he wouldn't dare speak to me so rudely!"

Elder Li glared at Tang Rou, arrogantly commanding her.

"Don't be rude, apologize to Miss Tang immediately!" Xuan Er stepped forward, hearing Elder Li's arrogance and rudeness towards Tang Rou, knowing she was Yun Hao's woman, so he intervened.

"And who are you supposed to be? A member of Dragon Scale?" Elder Li sized up Xuan Er. Despite having notable strength, Xuan Er was still not on Elder Li's level!

"I'm not a member of Dragon Scale!" Xuan Er knew he was no match for Elder Li, but he wasn't afraid because his boss was Yun Hao, and he was never afraid!

"Not a member of Dragon Scale? You must be seeking death, get out of my way!" Elder Li was truly angered. Damn, White Tiger, Black Tortoise, and Tang Rou dared to counter his opinion. No matter what, they were part of Dragon Scale, and out of respect for Long Shaoyang, he couldn't kill them. But this one, not a member of Dragon Scale, dared to oppose his viewpoint too, absurd!

"From now on, the order of the Martial Arts Competition will be managed by me and my brothers until my boss arrives. So, you better stay far away during this period, otherwise, I fear my brothers might unintentionally hurt you!"

Xuan Er, having followed Yun Hao for so long, had gained a bit of a temper. Hearing Elder Li tell him to get lost, he was immediately angered, loudly shouting at Elder Li.

As Xuan Er finished speaking, suddenly one person after another stood up around them, all brothers brought by Xuan Er, each holding a Strong Strike Repeating Crossbow aimed right at Elder Li back on the platform!

"Insolent, who are you people? How dare you threaten me? Do you truly believe I won't kill you? I see you're Huaxia too, retreat quickly to avoid disgrace in front of so many foreign guests!"

Though Elder Li's tone remained overbearingly forceful, there was clearly a trace of apprehension in his words, refraining from directly attacking Xuan Er!

If this were a different setting, without so many people around aiming crossbows at him, he would have long slapped Xuan Er's head. Damn, daring to threaten him? Spit!
