Under everyone's gaze, Bai Ye slowly stepped out of the limited edition supercar and gently patted Kingpin on the shoulder.
Although Bai Ye's height of one meter eighty wasn't short compared to the average person, he was dwarfed by Kingpin, who was over two meters tall and two meters wide.
What shocked everyone was that Kingpin actually bent down to allow Bai Ye to pat his shoulder in a more comfortable way. This display of subservience was a bit too much.
Especially since he wore an expression of pride after being patted, which made the people at the scene who knew Kingpin's identity as a black market boss look complicated, thinking, "You don't have to be this obsequious."
In the live stream, the comments "He looks like a dog" began to flood the screen, all mocking Kingpin's behavior.
Kingpin, of course, knew how ridiculous his actions looked to others, but he sneered inwardly at the others: 'A bunch of ignorant fools!'
As the owner of the company that manufactured Bai Ye's training equipment, he was one of the few people at the scene who knew how freakishly fast Bai Ye was growing. If he didn't suck up to him now, did he expect to do it later when Bai Ye took off?
Smith was the coach who first helped Bai Ye train, and Rogue was one of Bai Ye's potential women… With that in mind, he, Kingpin, also had to secure a place by Bai Ye's side to hold onto his coattails.
Being a clown for Bai Ye, is that even a clown?
Today's loss is just a little face, but tomorrow he'll get a ticket to the peak of his life because of his foresight, along with everyone's endless envy and jealousy. He really wants to improve!
Now, whenever Kingpin remembers that he dared to threaten Bai Ye on their first night meeting, he regrets it to the core. What a sin!!!
At the door, in a wheelchair supported by Jean Grey, Professor X, who also understood Bai Ye's freakish growth rate, looked at the wine bottle in the waiter's hand with hesitation, wondering whether to let Jean Grey push him to toast Bai Ye.
Of course, everyone's thoughts are their own, but as soon as Bai Ye appeared, he immediately became the center of attention.
Before he could even speak, the surrounding media reporters swarmed forward, pushing their microphones towards him.
"Mr. Bai, the publicity says you've cracked the secret of immortality, is that true?"
"I'm a reporter for the Daily Bugle. Do you support Mr. Wilson for the next mayor of New York?"
"Mr. Bai, you haven't appeared in public for many days. Are you no longer a superhero?"
Various media outlets held their microphones in front of Bai Ye, their eyes filled with fervor, making Bai Ye frown.
The next moment, the vast Purple Haze Qi within him surged. Before everyone's astonished gazes, a purple light erupted from Bai Ye, forming a two-meter-thick wall of energy that isolated him from the surrounding people.
"Holy crap!"
Seeing this obvious phenomenon, everyone present, including the viewers watching the live stream, widened their eyes. This was the first time Bai Ye had publicly displayed his internal energy.
Facing the crowd's expressions of pure amazement, Bai Ye spoke calmly, "This is Purple Haze Qi, an ability that everyone can master through learning. The details are all in the book I'm releasing today."
"Just like the title of my book, 'Everyone Can Cultivate', I hope that everyone, whether they are mutants or ordinary people, can grow stronger through learning."
Bai Ye's calm voice, amplified by his internal energy, echoed like a great bell, ensuring everyone in the hall could hear. This miraculous scene made everyone feel that they had made the right choice by coming today.
After speaking, Bai Ye glanced at everyone present, then dispersed the energy wall and slowly walked into the hall. The reporters wanted to interview him, but Kingpin immediately gestured for his men to stop them.
"Don't let those media people disturb Mr. Bai. For the rest of the meeting, let Mr. Bai choose who he wants to talk to. If he rejects someone, that person is not to appear before him again, understand?"
No longer facing Bai Ye, Kingpin's eyes regained their coldness. After calmly instructing the guards, he trotted after Bai Ye, fawning over him.
Bai Ye had just entered the venue. As the center of attention, a large group of people swarmed over to talk to him. However, compared to the earlier chaos of the reporters, these upper-class individuals were much more composed, as they all needed to save face.
"Kid Bai, you're not serious, are you? The secret to getting stronger is really in the new book you released?"
Ross was the first to ask. As soon as he asked this question, the people around them immediately perked up their ears, eager to find out the truth.
"Why would I lie to you? Do I need to tell a lie that can be easily exposed?" Bai Ye didn't put on any airs with Ross, an acquaintance, and smiled.
"Then there must be some kind of restriction," Ross asked. How could something so simple just fall from the sky?
"Of course. An ordinary poor person would need seven hundred years to reach the level I just showed." Bai Ye said, and the others present immediately became disappointed. So it was just a matter of grinding away.
"Ordinary? Poor?" At this moment, a middle-aged man stepped forward with a smile. "Then what about someone who is not an ordinary rich person?"
"Oh!" Bai Ye looked at the middle-aged man who had come over to speak with a curious expression. The other party immediately extended his right hand and smiled. "I've heard of you for a long time. I am the current Vice President of the United States, Rodriguez."
Bai Ye reached out and lightly shook hands with the other person, replying, "If you're a wealthy person, maybe you could reach my level in just one night."
One night?
Everyone at the scene was stunned. Did this thing even differentiate between the rich and the poor? How realistic.
"The specific introduction hasn't started yet. Later, I'll give each of you a free copy. You'll understand after reading the book's introductory notes," Bai Ye said.
To keep the book's contents secret, Kingpin used his connections to ensure Bai Ye's book passed the review process. He also replaced the printing staff with his own underworld subordinates.
So, until now, even S.H.I.E.L.D. didn't know what was in Bai Ye's book, just assuming it was an ordinary autobiography.
As he spoke, another supercar drifted to a stop beside Bai Ye's car. A middle-aged man with a flamboyant demeanor and a mustache emerged from the vehicle.
His flashy entrance, like Bai Ye's, attracted everyone's attention. Soon, the reporters swarmed him, just as they had done before.
Tony Stark? Bai Ye's gaze lingered on him for a second before moving away. He immediately judged the newcomer to be no threat and nothing to be feared.
