Tuoba Beast was a towering figure, standing nearly ten feet tall. His muscles, like a wall of bronze and iron, looked ready to burst through his robes at any moment. His mere presence was enough to intimidate the crowd, and no one dared to look directly at him.
"So, it's Young Master Tuoba. It's truly been a long time," Yang Xuan said, his eyelid twitching. He forced a smile and greeted him with cupped fists.
The Human Institute Disciples bowed respectfully. "Head Senior Brother!"
"Senior Brother Tuoba!" The disciples from the Heaven and Earth Institutes also bowed in greeting.
Tuoba Beast strode forward with the gait of a dragon and the step of a tiger, stopping directly in front of Yang Xuan. The contrast between Tuoba Beast's near ten-foot height and Yang Xuan's seven-foot frame was stark.
"Steward Yang, your enforcement of the law has certainly made an outstanding contribution to the Sect... by throwing all the institutes into chaos!" Tuoba Beast's voice boomed.
