At this moment, among the discussions of the crowd, it's evident that many disciples from the Right Pulse and Main Vein have begun to support Qin Tian.

Of course, most of these disciples come from the lower ranks, whether from humble beginnings or having climbed up from the Outer Disciple ranks.

They share almost the same experiences as Qin Tian, and after seeing Qin Tian defeat strong opponents step by step, they felt a sense of recognition towards him.

"I didn't think much when Qin Tian defeated Qian Peng, but now you say Qin Tian has a chance to defeat Liu Huachen, I think it could really happen."

"Yes, indeed, in the last round Qin Tian defeated Liu Yu, whose strength even none of the Qilin Five could guarantee they'd beat, right?"

"Haha, let's eat and rest first, there's a good show to watch in the afternoon."

The crowd gradually walked towards their residences, with Qin Tian and Qiao Wenxuan heading towards the resting area for the Left Pulse in the Main Vein.

Because the Left Pulse is far from the Main Vein, the Main Vein has specially set up a resting place near the Martial Arts Square for the disciples of the Left and Right Pulse.

In previous Three Veins Tournaments, the disciples of the Left Pulse never made it to the afternoon matches, so that resting place had no real use.

Now that Qin Tian has emerged, it's finally being used, and used proudly!

Qin Tian and Qiao Wenxuan walked side by side in front, with Gao Dazhuang, Li Xinfu, and others joyfully following behind, as the atmosphere among them was harmonious.

"Wow, Qin Tian, you should have seen the dumbfounded faces in the stands when you defeated Brother Liu Yu. Truly, who would've thought, a disciple from the Left Pulse could defeat a master from the Main Vein, and even make it to the top eight! The last time a Left Pulse disciple made it to the top eight in the Three Veins Tournament, I think our master wasn't even the Left Pulse Sect Leader yet... That was thirty years ago, right."

Gao Dazhuang was extremely excited.

Song Qiuyue looked at Qin Tian with admiration and said, "Brother Qin Tian, you're really amazing. Back in the Outer Disciple ranks, we already saw that you were not an ordinary person. Now it seems, coming to Left Pulse was absolutely the right decision!"

Li Xinfu and Xu Hui nodded in agreement: "Yes, yes. Those who went to the Main Vein and Right Pulse think they're superior, but within the sect, they're still bullied and humiliated by those who joined earlier. It's different for us at the Left Pulse, full of love and harmony, perfect for cultivation!"

Liang Xiaoyu laughed teasingly and said, "Qin Tian's advancement is worth celebrating, but everyone noticed, right? That's not the main point. The main point is, just now by the duel stage, Qin Tian hugged our senior sister, hehe. Senior sister and Qin Tian, are you secretly having dates? I think you both are a perfect match, meant to be together!"

With Liang Xiaoyu setting the tone, Gao Dazhuang and others chorused, "Together! Together!"

Qin Tian laughed heartily, turned to Qiao Wenxuan, and saw her blushing down to her neck, head bowed, not speaking, only muttering to Liang Xiaoyu: "Xiaoyu, what nonsense are you talking about, don't speak nonsense!"

However, her words clearly lacked conviction, making Liang Xiaoyu believe her guess was true.

The Sect Leader and Elders were eating in the Main Vein's cafeteria, while Qin Tian and the others had their meals delivered by a common slave from the Main Vein.

"Wait a moment."

Before everyone started eating, Qiao Wenxuan stopped them and said, "Qin Tian will be representing us Left Pulse in the afternoon, we should be extra cautious with his food. After all, the meals aren't made by ourselves."

The meticulous Qiao Wenxuan took out a silver needle to check Qin Tian's food for poison.

After everything was checked, everyone gathered to eat hastily.

After dinner, Qiao Wenxuan advised Qin Tian to rest early, so he went to a quiet little room to meditate and recover his True Qi depleted in the morning.

At the same time, he also took a few newly purchased Primordial Energy Pills to solidify his foundation and ensure better performance in the afternoon.

Just as Qin Tian finished cultivating and was about to nap, his keen Sensing Power suddenly picked up Qiao Wenxuan's voice.

"Don't come looking for me anymore. We will never be possible. I don't like you!" were Qiao Wenxuan's words.

Upon hearing this, Qin Tian paused and quickly got out of bed and went out.

At the edge of the woods outside the courtyard, Liu Huachen and Qiao Wenxuan stood facing each other, with Qiao Wenxuan deliberately keeping a distance from Liu Huachen.

Qiao Wenxuan said to Liu Huachen, "Brother Liu, I still respect you as Brother Liu. Please don't bother me anymore. I have someone I like, and it's not you. Sorry."

"Heh, you like that slave Qin Tian, don't you?" Liu Huachen sneered, his gaze fixed on Qiao Wenxuan.

Qiao Wenxuan nodded without hesitation, "Yes, I like him, and he likes me too. I don't care if he is a slave disciple or whatever, I'm determined to be with him for life, and I'll never change my mind!"

"Oh, you're so resolute?"

Liu Huachen grinned, "What if Qin Tian ends up dead? Hehe, wouldn't you have to remain a widow then?"

"Dead? What do you mean?" Qiao Wenxuan's expression instantly turned tense.

Liu Huachen arrogantly said, "This afternoon is my duel with Qin Tian. Heh heh, what if I accidentally kill Qin Tian in the ring, what would happen then? I believe the Sect Leaders wouldn't blame me, but rather congratulate me on advancing, right?"

"You want to kill Qin Tian? You're too ruthless! It's just a duel..." Qiao Wenxuan said.

Liu Huachen smugly replied, "Yes, just a duel, but I don't need a reason to kill him. My principle is simple: if I can't have something, then no one else can! Qin Tian will die! You... heh heh, I'm giving you one last chance. If you don't choose me, I'll send you to the underworld to accompany that slave waste!"

"Liu Huachen! You, you…"

Qiao Wenxuan was furious upon hearing Liu Huachen's words, her eyes filled with anger.

Liu Huachen was pleased to see Qiao Wenxuan upset, as it showed his threat was effective.

He was about to say something when he sensed someone approaching, turned to look, and he and Qiao Wenxuan simultaneously saw Qin Tian striding towards them.

"Liu Huachen, what nonsense are you babbling about! You think you can kill me? With what, huh? Kill me? Hah, more like kill the fancy rocker in yourself!"

Qin Tian strode over angrily, mocking Liu Huachen.

He reached Qiao Wenxuan and pulled her into his arms, comforting her, "Senior sister, don't worry, even if a dog bites me, I won't be scared to death... right, Liu Dummy?" Qin Tian said, looking up at Liu Huachen.
