In the world of martial arts, grind your skill level to become a saint.

"What does this have to do with me? To be honest, if it weren't for your father, do you think you'd still be here?"

Liu Jun didn't care and chuckled coldly in a low voice.

She didn't care what Tang Huang thought; all she wanted now was for him to get lost!

Even if the other party has exceptional talent, if they haven't broken through to the Bronze Skin level yet, they pose no threat to him and don't need to be respected at all.

She didn't care whether the other party was the most suitable successor to the martial arts school.

"Senior Sister Liu, you...!"

Tang Huang was speechless for a moment, so angry that he couldn't say a word.

But when he saw Liu Jun's dangerous gaze, he felt a chill run down his spine, and his fists clenched so tightly they cracked.

"If you can't resist, you can try it out. I also want to experience just how capable you are, the genius that your father regards as the heir to the martial arts school."

Liu Jun could see Tang Huang's anger, but she remained calm and even a little sarcastic.

She picked up the wine jar again and started drinking by herself.

To outsiders, her seemingly crazy actions of pressuring her father appear to be nothing more than a display of willfulness and madness.

But only she knew the bitterness in her heart that no one else could understand or know.

The reason she disagreed with her father's closeness to Zhangjiabao and his opposition to the Martial Arts Alliance was because Zhangjiabao did not have the Guan family's background!

It was precisely because of her father's stubbornness in choosing what he considered a reliable backer that he was eventually hunted down by his enemies, leading to her mother's suffering.

Now, whenever she closes her eyes at night, the scene of hiding in the dim haystack and watching her mother being tortured immediately appears before her eyes, and in the end, she never revealed the whereabouts of her father and herself until her death.

That's why she hates it!

I hate the enemies my father offended, and I hate my father for not protecting this family!

This is also why she's been so hysterical lately, and why she's trying to connect with the Martial Arts Alliance herself.

In her view, all forces, even the powerful Zhangjiabao, were eventually driven out of the city and forced to lie low for more than a decade after they were removed from the government's backing.

In the current situation, it is simply incomprehensible that his father would still go to the Zhangjiabao team!

Without official connections, it's impossible to remain untainted. My father was abandoned once before; is he going to repeat the same mistake again?

"Senior sister, you think too highly of me. Fine... you drink, I'll just watch from the side."

Tang Huang remained silent for a moment, but in the end he gave in.

His gaze lingered on Liu Jun for a moment, until the other man put down the wine jar, before he looked away, picked up his chopsticks, and pretended to pick up some food.

Liu Jun ignored the other person and continued drinking by himself.

"Senior sister, actually, people from the Eight Great Families came specifically to see me."

Seeing that the other person's emotions had finally calmed down a bit.

Tang Huang's eyes flickered for a moment, then he seemed to have made up his mind and spoke.

Upon hearing this, Liu Jun paused slightly in his wine jug, but then continued pouring wine as if he hadn't heard it.

"They actually value Master Liu's abilities highly. After all, among all the bone-forging masters in the entire outer city academy, Master Liu's strength ranks among the top. But my master is too difficult to communicate with, so he came to me..."

Tang Huang took out a black token from his pocket and threw it in front of Liu Jun.

The character "武" (martial arts) was clearly written on it.

The holder of this token represents a member of the Martial Arts Alliance.

When Liu Jun saw the token, his eyes narrowed slightly!

"What do you mean? You've joined the Martial Arts Alliance?"

Liu Jun frowned, his eyes, which had been somewhat drunk, turning cold and sharp once more.

Although she had always wanted to side with the Martial Arts Alliance, they had not responded for a long time. The reason was simple: she was Liu Chongshan's daughter.

The Martial Arts Alliance was never quite sure of her stance.

But he never expected that Tang Huang would actually obtain the Martial Arts Alliance's token.

In that case, things will become complicated!

Now that Master Liu has sided with Zhangjiabao, Tang Huang, as a member of the Martial Arts Alliance, is a ticking time bomb for Yueshan Boxing Academy.

At this moment, a murderous intent rose in her heart!

"Senior sister, please don't misunderstand. This is just a token they gave me, as an opportunity for me to join their cause. But I haven't expressed my opinion yet, otherwise I wouldn't have taken this token out."

Tang Huang shook his head and explained, staring intently at Liu Jun, "Senior Sister Liu, originally I didn't want to get involved in what's going on between you and Master. But seeing you two dragging this out, Yue Shan Martial Arts School is bound to fall sooner or later. Since we both want Master to side with the Inner City Martial Arts Alliance, why don't we work together to get this done?"

"What can you do? Do you really think this token will make that old man give in? Do you believe he'll slap you to death?"

Liu Jun sneered.

He suddenly felt that Tang Huang's actions were naive and childish.

Despite my efforts over the years, I haven't been able to change their attitude or stance.

Did Tang Huang think that because his father valued him and regarded him as the successor of the martial arts school, he could change everything with just a token?

"Of course, I can't do it all by myself, so I need my senior sister's help."

A barely perceptible chill flickered in Tang Huang's eyes, but he wore a smile on his face.

"My assistance?" Liu Jun was wary. She frowned slightly and looked at her youngest junior brother in front of her, saying, "What do you want me to do? Now that my father is involved, those people who were in contact with me have all dispersed."

"Of course there's a way. As long as Senior Sister agrees to one thing, the matter is already half successful."

Tang Huang smiled.

"Speak!" Liu Jun said impatiently.

She hates it when people keep her in suspense!

"If you agree to attend a banquet, I'll take care of everything!"

Tang Huang didn't delay any longer and went straight to the point.

"You're planning an ambush?" Liu Jun was extremely perceptive and immediately saw through the scheme.

"That's not the case. No one wants to ambush a Bone Forging Master; it's just a discussion... Besides, Xu Dingchun and Zeng Yuce from the Xu family will be there. Senior Sister, if even they don't believe it, why are you still drinking alone here?"

Tang Huang's explanation is concise and to the point.

Given the current situation, Liu Chongshan has sided with Zhangjiabao. To get the other side, which is a fence-sitter, to switch sides, there is no other way but to use a scheme.

Upon hearing this, Liu Jun's beautiful eyes flickered with contemplation.

It must be said that Tang Huang's words were indeed not without reason.

But the dangers lurking in the shadows are no less significant.

There are two main reasons: first, from the Martial Arts Alliance, and second, from Zhangjiabao.

Now that his father has sided with Zhangjiabao, even if he is buried and subdued and turns against the Martial Arts Alliance, Zhangjiabao will not let him go.

If he does not yield, the Martial Arts Alliance will not let him go either.

Either outcome is a dead end.

The only way out is whether these people think that their father, a master of bone forging, has any use.

This also determines whether the other party will show mercy.

But how to do it...

How could a father with such a strong personality compromise...?
