At Jeffred's words, the crowd gradually quieted down, but their expressions were still ecstatic.

Paige glanced at everyone and she read the text message that Lev sent her earlier out loud, 'Ares has already arrived in disguise, but because one of you insulted him, he has left in rage, and he refuses to attend your banquet again!'

Stanley, Andrew, and the rest of the guests fell silent as their excited expressions stiffened before gradually turning into looks of disappointment and despair, making for an interesting yet bizarre sight.

One of them dropped to their knees in dismay and mumbled, "It's over… I can't see Ares' true appearance anymore…"

Another roared furiously, "Who? Who was it? Which b*stard dared to insult Ares and ruin things for Cleapolis' business industry?"

Someone else gasped in horror. "They must have nerves of steel to dare to insult Ares! Will Ares hold a grudge on us?"

Hearing that, the crowd's faces dropped. Ares could make them rise to power with just one word. Similarly, he could also throw them into the pits of hell if he wanted.

"Who? Who the hell was it?"

Stanley felt that he was going insane. If Ares really did put the blame on them, the one who would take the brunt of it would be him, and the person who had lost the most today was him as well.

"Who the hell offended Ares? I'll skin him alive!"

The others joined in angrily, "That's right! Whoever offended Ares will be our enemy!"

"Major Tanner, who was it that upset Ares? We will teach them a lesson for him!"

Just as the crowd was bustling with fury, the faces of several people in the crowd were full of dread. These people were Levi, Alex and the others, and they all exchanged questioning glances. Could Paige be talking about them? After all, everyone was getting along with each other earlier, but only they had a fight in the parking lot.

Just as they were shifting around uneasily, Paige raised her voice and declared loudly, "Alex, Levi, all of you just stand up!"

As soon as these two names were called out, they were all dumbfounded, and their minds turned blank as if they had been hit by lightning.

Thump! Thump! Thump!

Levi's minions dropped to their knees, unable to remain standing. The elders of their respective families trembled with fright as well, unable to believe what was happening in front of them.

Meanwhile, Francis's face turned even redder as he strode toward Levi.

Slap!

Suddenly, he slapped Levi in the face and yelled angrily, "You useless thing! It's one thing to fool around with these friends of yours all day, but now you dare to provoke Ares?"

"Dad... I didn't do it..." Levi covered his face and said with an aggrieved expression, "I didn't provoke Ares, I was just watching them."

"You didn't provoke him?" Francis' veins bulged with anger as he roared, "If you didn't provoke Ares, why would Major Tanner accuse you out of nowhere?"
