By suddenly raising his hands to cover his eyes and say the words 'I did not see anything' so righteously, Chairman Jiang left the crowd dumbfounded.
The silly act of trying to plug one's ears while stealing a bell might be an appreciative act of cuteness if it was done by a cute chick with a pleasant voice. However, the person who did that was an esteemed old man with gray hair. Immediately, the members of the upper echelon in the meeting room sensed a deep sense of 'maliciousness'. They cursed in their hearts, 'fuck you', but when they realized that the old man was Azure Emperor Jiang Tianyou of yesteryear and that he was the only safety net the meeting room had, how did anyone dare curse him?
Many of the crowd's faces flushed red as they did not dare to laugh out. Neither could they curse like they wished to. One of them could only awkwardly say, "Chairman Jiang, nice joke."
"Pfft!"
But at that moment, there was someone who could not control her laughing outburst.
Everyone turned their heads and saw the uniformed beauty standing beside Chairman Jiang laughing out happily. Although she had covered her mouth in time, the beautiful bell-like laughter still seeped out of her fingers. She turned her head over as her shoulders trembled as if it was very tough to endure.
The middle-aged woman's menopausal temper immediately flared up as she was about to shout out 'preposterous', but she was horrified to notice that not only was Chairman Jiang not angered, he had even turned to look at the uniformed beauty. The expression he had was like the affection he would give his granddaughter.
The middle-aged woman immediately swallowed the word 'preposterous' as she thought secretly to herself that the uniformed beauty was probably not as simple as being a secretary or assistant!
The suited man's expression was the ugliest. However, he did not dare to make it too obvious. After a moment of hesitation, he spoke out softly, "Chairman Jiang, are you really going to abide by One-Pun's wishes of pretending not to see anything? You have always been the idol in my heart because you are one of the few that cannot stand for injustice.”
“I remember that years ago when you were still a B-class hero, you showed no fear and stepped forward when you happened to discover that the Hero Association's Vice-Chairman had been bullying the weak! But now with what you are doing…have you really become old?"
If this were any other time, the suited man would absolutely not act so wantonly in front of the esteemed Jiang Tianyou. However, the present matter determined his future, maybe even his life. Thus, he had naturally lost his cool.
The white-browed elder turned to look at the suited man. He still looked genial but his eyes no longer looked turbid. Instead, they looked as sharp as a sword.
"I did not see a thing when Zhang Meng bullied Yama Minamiya, so it's natural that I also do not see a thing now. This is my justice!"
The crowd was left flabbergasted when he said those words. By being able to rise up to ranks of the upper echelon, they were definitely not idiots despite their malevolent practices. They instantly understood what Chairman Stubborn was implying!
The reason why Jiang Tianyou did not intervene when Zhang Meng was bullying Yama Minamiya was that he did not wish to stop One-Pun's assault. By not intervening twice, it would not be something unjust. Instead, it would be a very just act!
This darn sly old fox!
The suited man cursed inwardly as his expression turned extremely ugly.
He finally realized that Jiang Tianyou had noticed that One-Pun was on the way. Therefore, he did not obstruct Zhang Meng from engaging in his act of evil. That was because the moment he stopped him, there was no reason for him to turn a blind eye when One-Pun began beating Zhang Meng up brutally.
The smiling old fox had planned everything a long while ago!
The suited man sighed helplessly. He knew very well that pleading to Jiang Tianyou for help was destined to fail. He could only hope that One-Pun would show mercy. He prayed that Zhang Meng would pent up his anger and not go as far as to lose all reason. However, he probably needed to think of a method to withstand or avoid the blame from Thor.
From beginning to end, the suited man that thought himself a clever fellow did not even consider the thought of pleading Yama Minamiya to be magnanimous so that he could, in turn, persuade One-Pun from his brutality. Perhaps, in his mind, Yama Minamiya was just a tiny division minister from a second-rate organization who could not influence the decision of an S-class hero One-Pun.
It might also be a subconscious reluctance to submit to such a trivial figure. Of course, it was also possible that he had a psychological scar from Yama Minamiya's demeanor of not willing to compromise. He had subconsciously believed that he could not persuade him.
The suited man did not know that Yama Minamiya, the man he did not turn to look at even once, was actually the only person in the meeting room that could stop One-Pun.
…
The screams outside the room continued on for a long time before it died down slightly. It was unimaginable what method One-Pun had used to shatter Zhang Meng's knees. It was probably Zhang Meng's first barrage of expletives that had enraged One-Pun to reveal his 'brutal' nature.
The crowd in the meeting room had mixed expressions. They had also given up on persuading Chairman Jiang. Their desires to save Zhang Meng were not strong, to begin with. They had only attempted to persuade Chairman Jiang to stop One-Pun because they believed they would end up being implicated later. Now that they knew what Chairman Jiang's 'justice' meant, they were relieved.
Back when Yama Minamiya was being bullied, they had only turned a blind eye but they did not add insult to injury. If One-Pun wanted to blame them, Chairman Jiang would not be able to say 'I did not see anything'.
This meeting was the focus of attention of the entire country and it was fervently discussed by the people. But in fact, it was just a 'trivial matter between rookies'. True warriors might commend the rookies from this year's batch, but they would not put them to heart. Just like a conglomerate magnate who earned millions a day, he might commend the top scholar of the year, but he would not think too much of the scholar. It was because their 'worlds' were on different planes of existences.
Hence, the various organizations only sent a few members of their upper echelons, who placed importance on the organization's interests, to the meeting. For example, Thor's sending of an A-class hero like Zhang Meng was considered quite an oddity.
As for an S-class hero like One-Pun, it was completely unheard of that he would pay attention to rookie matters or even act because of it!
The members of the upper echelons of the various organizations had felt a strong sense of danger when One-Pun was enraged. They felt like they were ants while an elephant was walking past them. They were mortally afraid that the massive elephant’s foot would accidentally crush them to death.
It wasn't that the seven major organizations did not have an expert as strong as One-Pun, but such experts were busy all day with matters like nabbing criminals, killing astral beasts or slaying calamity fiends. They would even personally go to the battlefield to fight calamity fiend armies. How could they have the time to bother with trivial matters regarding a bunch of rookies, not to mention protect the upper echelons that were scorned as the 'organization's parasites'?
That was the reason why the man with renal problems and the courtesan had wet their trousers when they were stared at by One-Pun. In front of a true expert, their safety was not guaranteed!
The courtesan was still trembling as she recalled One-Pun's cold gaze. She was reminiscing it in fear but was also momentarily feeling despondent.
She hesitated for a moment before suddenly leaning over and whispering to the man with renal problems sitting beside her, "Why is it that despite the fact that both of them are in the Psionic Imperial Realm, One-Pun… His Excellency One-Pun is so much stronger than Zhang Meng? It's…it's almost like an adult beating up a child…"
The courtesan was the person with the lowest cultivation level in the meeting room, with her being only at the third level of the Psionic Mortal Realm. Her understanding of the psionic cultivation system was extremely superficial; therefore, she could not understand the situation that had unfolded at all. Why would Zhang Meng be completely powerless in front of One-Pun despite being at the same Psionic Imperial Realm?
More importantly, she wanted to know why One-Pun was so 'strong'.
The man looked somewhat pale. He was still immersed in the horrifying state of affairs. He turned to glance at the courtesan when he heard her but he had planned on brushing her off. However, he suddenly realized that her face was flushed and her eyes were thirsting for sex. Her extremely alluring look changed his mind immediately.
He coughed lightly and acted in a profound manner by saying, "What's so odd about that? Among Psionites, the greatest difference in strength has never been the difference between the Psionic Imperial Realm and the Psionic Mortal Realm, but…between Psionic Imperial Realms!"
"Ah?"
The courtesan was extremely shocked as she covered her mouth and exclaimed, "What does it mean?"
The man gave an aloof smile and pretended to act worldly. He said, "As everyone knows, the psionic cultivation system is divided into five major realms—Psionic Mortal, Psionic Soul, Psionic Might, Psionic Domain and Psionic Imperial! Every realm in the psionic cultivation system has an obvious difference.”
“For example, 'fusing with attribute souls' is the mark of entering the Psionic Soul Realm. 'Birth of Soul Suppression' is the mark of entering the Psionic Might Realm. 'Creating a psionic domain' is the mark of entering the Psionic Domain Realm and when 'psionic soul, psionic might, and psionic domain transform and are enhanced, entering the realm of kings', that would be the mark of the Psionic Imperial Realm.”
“After that, Psionic Imperial Realm experts might continue cultivating and their strength would constantly increase, but there would no longer be any clear distinctions again. It could be said that in the history of the psionic cultivation system, there has never been a Psionite that had a transformative mark after the Psionic Imperial realm.”
“Therefore, the psionic cultivation system only has five realms! Most people would think that the Psionic Imperial Realm is the highest realm for Psionites, and that is it the final point of the psionic cultivation system, but in fact, the Psionic Imperial Realm is the true starting point of psionic cultivation!"
The courtesan was confused listening to all of that but felt impressed. She threw a suggestive look at the man and said seductively, "Aww~ It's so hard to understand. Can you explain it simpler, pretty please?"
The suggestive look the courtesan gave made the man feel good. Compared to his shuddering panic from before, it was like he had climbed back up to heaven from hell. He said as though he was on cloud nine, "I'm really at a loss with you. Then let me give you a simple analogy. For example, let us use numbers to demarcate each realm's strength.”
“If the Psionic Mortal Realm's maximum is 10, and one enters the Psionic Soul Realm from 11, then the Psionic Soul Realm's maximum is 100. As for the Psionic Might Realm, it will be 1000! But what is the Psionic Imperial Realm's limit? It's not a million or trillion but infinity! Do you get it?”
“Going from the Psionic Mortal Realm to the Psionic Imperial Realm is only a span of 100,000 points, but after the Psionic Imperial Realm, some Psionic Imperial experts might have a strength value of 100,000 while there might be others as high as ten million. The difference between them is a full 99 times the amount needed to reach the Psionic Imperial Realm!”
“The Psionic Imperial Realm might look like the final realm of the psionic cultivation system, but it is, in fact, the true starting point. That's because the gap between people at the Psionic Imperial Realm can be infinitely large! One-Pun can crush Zhang Meng because of their difference in strength values despite them being both at the Psionic Imperial Realm. It's unknown how wide the difference as it could span points that might be equivalent to several Psionic Imperial Realms!"
The easily comprehensible analogy made the courtesan immediately understand. Dicks might be the same, some were 9cm while others were 18cm. Wasn't the difference obvious?
In short, One-Pun was mightier than Zhang Meng. He was indeed worthy to be a man that made her orgasm with a glance!
The courtesan was very pleased as she conveniently asked a tiny question, "Well, since the difference between Psionic Imperial Realms is that great, why did Zhang Meng say that His Excellency One-Pun could not be much stronger than him since they were both at the Psionic Imperial Realm?"
"About that…"
The man was also baffled about that. Although Zhang Meng was a boor, he was not a fool. Why did he say something that lacked common sense?
The man was unsure of an answer but with a flash of brilliance, he answered softly while flashing a strange smile, "This matter might be somewhat complicated. It can't be explained in a short period of time. Why don't we find a spot to have a good chat after the meeting?"
The courtesan chuckled and asked, "Where shall we chat?"
The man said seriously, "My car. There's air conditioning in it."
How could the courtesan not understand the implied meaning behind the man's words? She naturally did not have much resistance towards such matters. Furthermore, her experience from before left her reminiscent and empty. The man's 'invitation' was timely.
The courtesan chuckled and was about to accept his invitation.
At that moment, the red-caped One-Pun, who was termed by people as 'Superman', suddenly walked in. He was expressionless while he strolled idly. His clothes were not stained in any way, making him look cool and handsome.
Although he was a baldy, he was so good-looking.
The courtesan looked at One-Pun in a mesmerized manner before glancing over at the man with renal problems. Suddenly, she found him vapid.
Certain gaps were like a ravine that 18cm could not bridge.
