"Young Master Xiao, what are you doing here?"

At the same time, a few suited men happened to pass by, and their expressions changed slightly upon seeing Xiao Tian. There was a hint of awe in their tone.

These men were all well-known wealthy young elites of Shanghai City, with considerable fortunes.

Subsequently, a few young elites gathered around Xiao Tian. They all greeted him with smiles, their tones filled with utmost respect.

"Hehe, Young Master Xiao. We couldn’t recognize a great man the other day. Here’s my business card, if you encounter any issue in Shanghai, just come to me!" One of the young elites pulled out a business card and handed it to Xiao Tian.

Another young elite quickly nodded in agreement, "Yes, yes. From now on, Young Master Xiao’s matters are our matters. Knowing you is a blessing for us!"

The tones of a few were filled with awe.

These people were the same young elites who caused trouble with Zhongliang a few days ago, usually unafraid of causing more problems and idling around. However, that day they were severely dealt with by Xiao Tian, and later when they followed Zhongliang intending to seek revenge, they saw Xiao Tian fighting drug dealers. His thunderous methods scared them witless.

Seeing the respectful looks on their faces, Xiao Tian remembered that they were the same young elites who followed Zhongliang to stir up trouble a few days ago. No wonder their attitude changed so quickly; they were beaten into fear!

As the saying goes, you don’t hit a smiling person. Seeing the young elites greet with smiles and flatter, Xiao Tian nodded in response.

Seeing the young elites showing such respect to Xiao Tian, Chen Qiang, a suitor of Lin Bingxuan who had just had a conflict with Xiao Tian and was about to call his bodyguards to deal with him, was stunned. He was bewildered.

What is going on?

Chen Qiang and others have been mingling in Shanghai for years. How have they never heard of a Young Master Xiao known by so many young elites?

Moreover, after just being scolded by Xiao Tian, Chen Qiang’s face was not looking good in front of everyone. He walked over a few steps, forced himself to hold back his anger, and asked in a low voice, "Young Master Xiao? How come I’ve never heard of him?"

Just as Chen Qiang finished speaking, one of the young elites previously dealt with by Xiao Tian quickly turned around and rebuked, "Young Master Xiao possesses great supernatural powers, a strongman of our time. How could you have heard of him?"

"A strongman of our time?" Hearing the words of the young elite, Chen Qiang’s expression grew more confused. The more he listened, the more baffled he became.

The young elite said coldly, "Hmph. What do you know? A few days ago, Young Master Xiao led an assault against drug dealers, fighting a whole squad by himself. He could stop a car with one hand, dodge bullets as if drinking water, and slayed numerous enemies!"

"What?"

Upon hearing that someone fought against a squad alone, stopped a car with one hand, and wasn’t even hurt by bullets, the expression of a few who initially disrespected Xiao Tian changed drastically, a cold sweat subtly trickled down.

These young elites were no ordinary people. For Xiao Tian to earn the respect of so many, the claims must be true. The Xiao Tian in front of them is indeed a Grandmaster in martial arts!

At this moment, another young elite flattering Xiao Tian beside him also swept a cold glance at Chen Qiang, his tone unfriendly, "It seems you had some friction with Young Master Xiao?"

After saying this, the young elite then turned to ask Xiao Tian, "Young Master Xiao, just say the word, and we’ll throw him out immediately!"

At this point, Chen Qiang and the other suitors of Lin Bingxuan started sweating profusely. They originally thought Xiao Tian was just a poor guy, freeloading.

No wonder Lin Bingxuan took a liking to him; he turned out to be a hidden master!

Let alone Xiao Tian, even the group of young elites fawning over him, a few of whom they couldn’t afford to offend!

Immediatly, Chen Qiang and the others bowed their heads and profusely apologized, "We apologize, Young Master Xiao, please don’t hold it against us!"

"Young Master Xiao was right; our words were dirty. We’ll go back and rinse our mouths with toilet cleaner!"

Chen Qiang and the others apologized with heads bowed and backs bent, their voices trembling. Clearly, they were very frightened, and after apologizing, they quickly fled as if escaping, not daring to stay a moment longer.

Watching Chen Qiang and the others’ embarrassed looks, Xiao Tian smiled faintly. Towards those who look down on others, Xiao Tian felt it wasn’t worth the effort to bother. Then, surrounded by the young elites’ flattery, he went to the side to drink.

It was noon, and the sun was shining brightly.

Besides the Celestial Imperial Club, the military exclusive area at Shanghai Airport was also bustling.

Located on the east side of Shanghai Airport, the military exclusive landing point was cleared by airport officials half an hour ago, moving everyone away from the vicinity. Numerous security teams surrounded the whole east side of the airport to the point of impenetrability, armed to the teeth, vigilantly watching the surroundings.

And at the central area of the airport, a red carpet was already laid out.

Luxury cars were parked along the sides, with Shanghai City’s wealthy young elites standing below, waiting to greet someone grand, though they didn’t know which big shot they were waiting for. 𝒇𝒓𝙚𝒆𝔀𝓮𝓫𝒏𝓸𝙫𝓮𝓵.𝓬𝙤𝙢

"Here it comes!"

In the waiting crowd, someone shouted, followed by the sight of a white private jet slowly descending.

Under everyone’s gaze, the plane’s cabin door opened, and a sturdy young man stepped down from the plane.

The young man’s expression held a faint authority. Though young, he had a strong aura that intimidated others.

"Welcome back to Shanghai, Major Wu Heng!"

In the welcoming crowd, a white-haired elder walked out first, respectfully cupping his fists to the young man named "Wu Heng."

Wu Heng calmly swept his gaze across the field, "Elder Zhou, didn’t I tell you before? I’m back in Shanghai for a couple of days of rest, no need for all this formal.

Elder Zhou hurriedly shook his head, showing respect, "Major Wu Heng was already a leader among the younger generation in Shanghai. Now you’ve joined the Tiger Roar Team, and at such a young age, you’ve already earned the rank of Major. You are the pride of Shanghai!"

"We’ve prepared a welcome banquet for you. Please get in the car, Major Wu Heng!"

Saying this, Elder Zhou waved his hand promptly, and a black Xingqi H5 sedan slowly drove over, stopping in front of Wu Heng.

After Wu Heng got into the car, the vehicle slowly started, and the luxury cars behind quickly followed.

Dozens of minutes later, the motorcade arrived at a five-star hotel located in the east of Shanghai.

Once inside the hotel, the banquet began. An internationally renowned orchestra played music, while Shanghai City’s wealthy and powerful gathered together.

A major’s rank might not be much at times. However, for Wu Heng to achieve the rank of major at such a young age, coupled with his status as a member of the Tiger Roar Team, undoubtedly elevated Wu Heng to an exceedingly high position.

It’s known that every member of the Tiger Roar Team is picked from a thousand. One can say the future is boundless, and such a presence naturally would make countless wealthy bigwigs strive to cater to them!
