Ning Qingyun spoke directly and arrogantly, reprimanding Qiao Zheng in public, leaving him with no face to save, and causing Qiao Zheng to beco red-faced with embarrassnt!
The Elders of the Main Vein and the Right Pulse had witnessed scenes like these often.
Ning Qingyun had always wanted to strengthen the Qilin Mountain Sect, but he was held back by Qiao Zheng. It was well-known that Ning Qingyun, who held himself in high esteem, was dissatisfied with Qiao Zheng.
If it weren't for the Elder Council's oversight at the Qilin Mountain Sect making it inappropriate to abolish Qiao Zheng, Ning Qingyun would have already dismantled Qiao Zheng and annexed the Left Pulse.
"Haha, this might just be the most cowardly and worthless Sect Leader in the history of Qilin Mountain Sect. If not for the stubborn old relics in the Elder Council refusing to break with tradition, Qiao Zheng would have been finished two years ago!"
Watching Qiao Zheng beco red-faced and silenced by Ning Qingyun's scolding, Ma Changqing secretly smirked, feeling schadenfreude.
"Sect Leader Senior Brother, you call the shots at Qilin Mountain Sect. You said everyone from the Left Pulse should participate. I reckon, with Qiao Zheng Senior Brother's bit of strength, he wouldn't dare go against you, right?"
Ma Changqing chid in, then imdiately turned his gaze to Qiao Zheng, "What do you say, Qiao Zheng Senior Brother?"
Being questioned in public, Qiao Zheng was both red-faced with embarrassnt and gritted his teeth in anger.
He stood up directly, gritting his teeth and said, "Since Sect Leader Senior Brother wants all the disciples of the Left Pulse to participate, all of us from the Left Pulse will compete! Qiao Zheng will leave first!"
Having been humiliated to such an extent, Qiao Zheng couldn't resist, but it didn't an he didn't have a temper; after speaking, he stood up and left directly!
The mockery from the people in the Sect Leader's eting room echoed around.
"Hahaha, still the sa old routine, no face to stay, so decided to leave himself."
"Sigh, twenty years ago when he beca the Sect Leader of the Left Pulse, he was so glorious. Look at him now, such a cowardly fool!"
"There's still two years left. By the ti of the Sect Leader election, if he doesn't voluntarily step down, see how I will leave him with no face to stay in the Qilin Mountain Sect!"
"Such trash should have long felt ashad and left Qilin Mountain Sect by themselves. Really clueless!"
...
The main vein eting room launched verbal attacks humiliating Qiao Zheng and the Left Pulse. anwhile, on the side of the Left Pulse, Qin Tian spent the next two months almost entirely detached from external affairs, focusing further on cultivation.
With the help of a large amount of low-grade spirit stones and mid-grade spirit stones, Qin Tian's proficiency and damage level in the first form of the "Spiritual Sword Three Forms", Gale Illusion, and the second form, Wind Breaking Slash, made rapid progress, especially with the black shadow from the mysterious blood pearl nearly guiding his cultivation hand in hand. The direct aftermath was that when Qin Tian executed the Wind Breaking Slash, he even startled himself—
"Holy shit, such power!"
He underwent bitter training in Duan Hun Cliff, while Qiao Wenxuan continued to deliver als to him day after day. One day, she also inford Qin Tian, "My father originally wanted to cancel the Left Pulse's participation in the Three Veins Martial Arts Tournant, but the elders of the Main Vein and the Right Pulse forced us to participate. We have no choice... Qin Tian, my father said in the Sect Leader eting, those elders and the Sect Leader specifically ntioned they wanted to see how strong you really are, so be careful. It's likely that people from the Main Vein and Right Pulse will target you."
While sipping soup, Qin Tian smiled lightly, "Let them co, the more the rrier. I'll give them a surprise."
After speaking, he asked Qiao Wenxuan, "Is Master alright after being ridiculed and humiliated by those people in the Sect Leader eting?"
Qiao Wenxuan pouted, "He indeed hasn't been well lately. I guess he must have been severely injured in spirit at the Sect Leader eting. Alas, my father has suffered for years, but this ti, he seems to have lost weight... He never smiled before, and now he's even more troubled all day..."
As Qiao Wenxuan spoke, she beca sowhat dejected, lowering her head.
Qin Tian pursed his lips, looking off into the distance, confidently saying, "It won't be long before Master will smile again."
...
Two months later, the Three Veins Martial Arts Tournant officially began.
All Left Pulse disciples, following Ning Qingyun's order, arrived at the Main Vein to participate in the draw for the final thirty-two.
Early in the morning, a cautious and sowhat sluggish Qiao Zheng led the crowd to the Martial Arts Square of the Main Vein.
At this mont, the Martial Arts Square had eight arenas magnificently lined up.
Surrounding the arenas were already filled with people, a sea of human heads.
The Three Veins Martial Arts Tournant was a grand event held once every two years at the Qilin Mountain Sect. Many had risen from obscurity to fa in this tournant, becoming instant prodigies of the Qilin Mountain Sect.
For example, Chu Lingfeng erged six years ago, defeating the invincible Yu Wenfeng, hence centing his position as the top talent of Qilin Mountain Sect, dominating the tournant for three consecutive editions, invincible!
Take for instance, Right Pulse's Liu Yu, constantly on missions outside with unknown prowess, displayed his strength in the tournant two years ago, successfully making it into the top eight, slightly overshadowing the Qilin Five Talents and shocking the world!
All participants aid to shine brightly in this grand event where all elders and disciples of the Three Veins were focused.
Strong contenders like Chu Lingfeng and Yu Wenfeng, along with the Qilin Five Talents, aid to maintain their fa and defend their positions.
This competition of challenge and opposition was destined to be fierce.
However, for the past ten years or so, such grand events seed unrelated to the Left Pulse.
Thus, sitting next to Ning Qingyun on the dais, Qiao Zheng yawned repeatedly, appearing uninterested in the tournant.
"Hehe, still yawning, just wait and see. From today, a new history of humiliation for the Left Pulse begins... breaking records of disgrace!"
Watching Qiao Zheng on the dais, Ma Changqing sneered inwardly.
At this mont, standing centrally, Ning Qingyun, after a brief opening speech, officially announced, the referee Elder in position, let the competition begin!
This ti, the tournant still consisted of thirty-two participants.
However, unlike before, where only three participated from the Left Pulse, this ti, it expanded to seven, including Qin Tian, Song Qiuyue, Li Xinfu, and Xu Hui.
"Elder Sister, I'm so nervous."
"I'm nervous too. I just beca an Inner Sect Disciple, how did I end up in the Three Veins Martial Arts Tournant?"
"We're useless, complete cannon fodder... Sigh, being forced to participate, it's exhausting..."
The three standing behind Qiao Wenxuan and Qin Tian, Song Qiuyue, Li Xinfu, and Xu Hui, looked around nervously.
Qiao Wenxuan said, "Don't be nervous, just do your best. Rember, in this competition, winning or losing isn't important. What's most important is to protect yourself. If you can't win, then concede... Don't force it."
"..."
Upon hearing Qiao Wenxuan "encourage" Song Qiuyue and the others, Qin Tian was dumbfounded.
Holy crap, what the hell, the match hasn't even started, and you're encouraging them to surrender? What kind of Senior Sister are you…
