"Two newcomers, don't you know how powerful the Ziwei Sect's laws are? Quickly lock yourselves up and come with me, otherwise..."
Liu Tao revealed a sinister smile, then stomped one foot down.
Boom!
A muffled thunderclap resounded within a radius of a hundred feet, the earth trembled, and everyone lost their footing.
Everyone's expression changed drastically.
"What terrifying cultivation! He can actually stand on the ground and make it tremble for hundreds of feet without cracking!"
"His ability to control spiritual energy alone is absolutely unmatched by anyone at the Innate Realm!"
"That's incredible! No wonder he's a disciple of the Enforcement Hall!"
"Of course. To enter the Enforcement Hall, one must first reach the Human Emperor Realm. Liu Tao has been in the Enforcement Hall for three years now, and his cultivation has probably already reached the Earth Emperor Realm. Looking at the outer sect, who would dare to disrespect him!"
Witnessing Liu Tao's astonishing cultivation level, none of the outer disciples of the Ziwei Sect dared to even breathe loudly.
Fatty Shi's expression also changed drastically.
Although he had undergone a ten-thousand-fold increase in power and reached the peak of the Vitality Realm, he was still an ant in front of a powerful Emperor Realm expert.
Liu Tao is clearly biased towards A-Qiang and the others. Once I enter the Enforcement Hall, even if I don't die, I'll at least be severely injured.
For a moment, Fatty Shi was in a panic.
The Ziwei Sect is a behemoth; a mere Qi Refining Realm cultivator can't possibly cause any trouble.
A-Qiang, Wu Ma, and the others looked at the panicked Fatty Shi with smug smiles on their faces.
Although the disciples of the Enforcement Hall are supposed to enforce the law impartially, everything is still subject to human relationships.
Young Master Zhou is exceptionally talented and will be able to enter the core disciple ranks sooner or later.
Once you become a core disciple, your treatment is on par with that of an elder. Each one of them is a treasure of the Ziwei Sect and holds an extremely high status.
After completing their apprenticeship, core disciples can at least enter the Inner Sect Elder Hall for secluded cultivation.
Those who ascend to a higher level cultivate within the Purple Star Secret Realm.
To put it bluntly, their power is comparable to that of a sect leader.
Although Liu Tao was a disciple of the Enforcement Hall and possessed the cultivation of the Earth Emperor Realm, he knew in his heart that his potential had reached its limit, and at most he could only maintain his status as a disciple of the Enforcement Hall.
With this level of cultivation and this status, he's only good for intimidating outer disciples and some newcomers who have just entered the inner sect.
The reality is cruel; even disciples of the Enforcement Hall cannot avoid the practice of currying favor with powerful figures.
For Liu Tao, whether Tang Xuan and Fatty Shi were innocent or not was completely irrelevant.
They were just two newcomers.
If they truly had potential, they would have been selected by other elders during the entrance assessment long ago; there's no way they could have stayed here.
Judging from their appearance, they weren't even members of any gangs.
Even the gangs look down on them. No matter how many of these newcomers die, the Ziwei Sect won't care.
Martial arts training is inherently defying the natural order, so it's perfectly normal for hundreds or thousands of people to die every year.
Therefore, Liu Tao never intended to handle the matter impartially from the beginning.
What he wanted was to do Zhou Dashao a favor, and then use that favor to curry favor with him.
"You have three breaths. Lock it up yourselves, or you're dead!"
Liu Tao grinned maliciously.
The moment those words were spoken, the atmosphere became instantly tense.
The martial artists watching from all sides quickly retreated to avoid being caught in the crossfire.
Fatty Shi clenched his fists, his eyes filled with anger.
He is not convinced!
A surge of anger welled up in his chest and burst forth from his mouth.
"They forced us to our deaths, so why are they locking us up? It's so unfair!"
Liu Tao burst into laughter: "This is utterly foolish! Fairness? You actually talk about fairness? Come on, let me show you what fairness is!"
He took a step forward and stood in front of Fatty Shi, then slammed a palm at him.
"The Indestructible Golden Body!"
"Great Heaven Opening Fist!"
Fatty Shi immediately activated his body-tempering technique and unleashed his strongest martial art, the Great Heaven-Opening Fist.
After being amplified ten thousand times, his punching power has reached an extremely terrifying level. Even experts in the Unity Realm or even the Emperor Realm would probably be injured by this punch.
Even someone as powerful as Liu Tao was slightly moved.
"Oh, your punching power isn't bad, but unfortunately, in front of a powerful Emperor-level expert, you're nothing but an ant!"
With a wave of his hand, Liu Tao flashed several times, and a mysterious force directly broke through Fatty Shi's Great Heaven-Opening Fist, then slammed into his chest.
Bang!
Fatty Shi let out a miserable scream, flew backward, and crashed to the ground. The golden light on his body became extremely dim, and a charred palm print appeared on his chest.
The knowledgeable disciples of the Ziwei Sect immediately exclaimed in surprise.
"That's the Gale-Fire Palm! A Royal-level martial skill!"
"This palm technique contains the essence of both storm and raging fire. It can be both hard and soft, fast and slow. It can not only destroy the enemy's martial arts, but also absorb residual power to strengthen the attack. It is truly terrifying!"
"I never imagined that Liu Tao had actually mastered the Gale and Blaze Palm. That Fatty Shi's defeat was not unjustified. No matter how strong he was, he was useless in the face of the power of intent!"
Liu Tao slowly blew on his palm, a sinister grin spreading across his face.
"Newcomers need to know the rules!"
Ah Qiang, Wu Ma, and the others were also beaming with joy.
"Heh, you fatso, no matter how arrogant and rampant you were, why are you now like a dog, unable to get up?"
"This is what happens when you oppose me, Zhou Tianhui. How about it, are you convinced or not!"
Fatty Shi opened his mouth and spat out a mouthful of blood.
Tang Xuan brought out the resilience in his bones, and instead of being afraid, he became even more tenacious.
"Pah! I'll give you a piece of my mind! Go ahead and kill me if you dare!"
Liu Tao nodded.
"Outer disciple Fatty Shi has provoked trouble and refuses to confess. I hereby sentence you to be executed on the spot as a warning to others!"
