Zhang Rui's gaze was fixed tightly on Wu Li, waiting for his answer.
The reason he took the initiative to help bolster Wu Li's presence was that Wu Li's elevated status would benefit the Green Gang. Having the world's No.1 martial artist represent the Green Gang in a battle against 'Le Yuan' would, once word spread, increase the gang's prestige.
Given the Green Gang's status within the Chinese community organizations, publicly acknowledging Wu Li as the world's No.1 was no joke. By using the Green Gang's reputation to raise Wu Li's profile, the news would surely cause a huge commotion.
The title of the world's No.1 was the highest honor for a martial artist but also a tremendous pressure and burden. Once Wu Li accepted the title, even if 'Le Yuan' didn't cause him any trouble, numerous others would.
Wu Li looked at Zhang Rui, feeling moved that he had finally reached this step.
"In that case, I shall trouble everyone." Wu Li said calmly.
He had accepted!!
