Su Changfeng asserts his dominance, declaring his current achievements are sufficient proof of his superiority over Ye Weijun, much to Ji Hong's concern. He dismisses thoughts of harming Shangguan Feihong, though Ji Hong suspects he's capable of more than he lets on. The day of the final match arrives, with the crowd already convinced of Su Changfeng's victory. Meanwhile, the Zhou family grapples with how to mend their strained relationship with Su Changfeng.

Zhou Wang and Zhou Yunqi were stunned by what had happened. Even though there had been rumors about Su Changfeng visiting the Wang Family, nobody knew the specifics.

But from the current situation, it was evident that the Wang Family had become subservient to Su Changfeng!

Only now did Zhou Wang realize the extent of his actions. How could he have questioned Su Changfeng’s identity? He should have been more assertive when he first saw him!

Zhou Yunqi exclaimed in disbelief, “Did Wang Wenli lose his mind?!”

Zhou Wang replied helplessly, “How could it be? Actually, this was the right move. Now, it’s likely the entire Wang Family belongs to Su Changfeng!”

Upon hearing this, Zhou Yunqi was left speechless in shock.

Belongs to Su Changfeng?

This was hard to believe, considering the Wang Family is a significant household. Why would they do Su Changfeng’s bidding?

If even the Wang Family has done so, they surely wouldn’t say anything, but initially, the Zhou Family considered collaborating and standing on equal footing with Su Changfeng.

Zhou Yunqi, still in shock, said, “It hasn’t been long, how did everything change so drastically?”

If the Wang Family is like this, then it’s likely the Ning Family is similar too.

This signifies that the three great families are becoming irrelevant, their title meaningless.

Ye Qingtian, witnessing this scene, felt shocked yet pleased. This situation was undoubtedly advantageous to Su Changfeng.

Ye Qingtian remarked to the person beside him, Huo Tian, “Huo Tian, wasn’t it hard to believe earlier that Wang Wenli would display such humility in front of so many, even a teenager?”

“Isn’t this a declaration that the Wang Family now belongs to Su Changfeng?”

Huo Tian, filled with emotion, agreed, “Yes, I couldn’t fathom it before. Wang Wenli is indeed cunning.”

“Exactly, Wang Wenli was shrewd and ambitious in his youth, yet he’s doing this now.” Ye Qingtian nodded in agreement.

Curious about how Su Changfeng managed to make Wang Wenli willingly submit?

Huo Tian continued, “Su Changfeng may not be as formidable as imagined; he hasn’t revealed his true strength.”

Ye Qingtian proudly stated, “Su Changfeng is destined to be influential for an era; it’s amazing that such a person is my grandson!”

Su Changfeng was also surprised by Wang Wenli’s actions, for they were unnecessary. Wang Wenli, still a strong presence, the head of the Wang Family.

Yet Wang Wenli’s actions declared to others that he was merely a subordinate, stripping away his dignity.

Su Changfeng addressed Wang Wenli, “I didn’t expect you to do this.”

Wang Wenli respectfully replied, “It’s my duty.”

Su Changfeng frowned, “But aren’t you concerned about what others think of you?”

These matters were meaningless to Wang Wenli. After realizing Su Changfeng’s might, he knew the Wang Family’s future rested on Su Changfeng’s will.

If Su Changfeng wished, he could control all the great families.

Wang Wenli treated Su Changfeng with utmost respect, disregarding face or reputation.

Wang Wenli understood loyalty to Su Changfeng ensured the Wang Family’s growth, resources, and unimaginable development.

After all, no one in the world could rival Su Changfeng’s prowess.

Wang Wenli shook his head, “I don’t need to care about their opinions. They don’t understand the significance of my actions.”

Su Changfeng smiled, acknowledging Wang Wenli’s intentions but not caring.

He must admit Wang Wenli’s actions were wholly beneficial to Su Changfeng.

Finally, when the tournament began, Su Changfeng’s entrance excited many.

Su Changfeng faced a pale-faced man, seemingly unable to withdraw from the competition.

Initially, he wanted to withdraw, but the organizers wouldn’t allow it, so he stayed, fully aware.

He knew he wasn’t Su Changfeng’s match, aware his skills matched Yan Bingfeng’s, someone whom he once thought he could rival.

Unexpectedly, Yan Bingfeng was defeated early by Su Changfeng, and against him, winning seemed impossible.

He hoped only not to fare as poorly as Yan Bingfeng.

Su Changfeng told him helplessly, “You don’t need to be so tense; getting this far is impressive.”

If anyone else spoke to him, he’d think Su Changfeng was mocking. But this time, it was different.

The competition unfolded with no suspense, and upon victory, everyone expected the outcome.

Su Changfeng’s fame grew from the tournament; soon everyone would know his name.

If not for wanting recognition, he’d have left early.

Although his company required no care, stabilizing it was good.

Despite forgoing superficial power, societal uses rendered influence vital.
