"Not good, Brother Tian is in danger!" Shen Tianming exclaimed in surprise from beneath the Arena.
Immediately, many people's gazes ignited with intensity. No one expected that Wu Lie, who had been on the defensive, would find an opportunity at this moment. Taking advantage of a gap in Qin Tian's defense, he struck out with a powerful palm aimed directly at Qin Tian's chest.
The force behind this strike was formidable. If it landed, Qin Tian would suffer serious injury at best, or death at worst.
"Haha, this is going to be interesting."
"That kid Qin Tian is too arrogant. Does he really think that just because he has made some progress, he can look down on everyone? There are plenty of people in this world stronger than him."
"Heh, there's no way to compare Qin Tian and Wu Lie."
As countless spectators beneath the Arena began to applaud for Wu Lie's impending victory, Gong Xueyi, from her perch above, merely smiled calmly without uttering a word.
Luo Tianyu, standing beside her, was momentarily stunned. The smile he had intended to wear faltered as he realized the situation. "This is bad; it's a ruse. Qin Tian has so many tricks up his sleeve?"
Just as he was about to step forward, Gong Xueyi's melodious voice fell upon him like a spell.
"This is their battle; are you sure you want to intervene?"
Luo Tianyu hadn't anticipated that Gong Xueyi not only held expectations for Qin Tian but also intended to stop him from intervening.
A flicker of fierce flames flashed in his eyes. However, it was quickly concealed, and he retracted the foot that had already taken half a step forward.
"Just sit back and watch the show!"
Gong Xueyi's voice came through, cold and indifferent.
"Qin Tian, I will kill you right in front of Xueyi!"
Luo Tianyu coldly thought to himself but ultimately refrained from making a move.
...
With a sharp sound, Wu Lie unleashed the Azure Sky Demon Fist with all his might, striking Qin Tian fiercely in the chest.
"Qin Tian, I told you, today you're dead. Hahaha!"
Shen Tianming, below the arena, stood up despite the pain, his toes barely touching the ground as he prepared to rush onto the arena. However, the next scene made his pupils shrink to the size of pinholes.
This moment also caught the attention of everyone below the arena who had come to watch the spectacle.
As expected, a wave of shock surged among countless Outer Sect Disciples gathered below the arena.
"How is this possible? Brother Tian, how did you do it?"
Shen Tianming's voice trembled as he spoke.
Immediately, countless Outer Sect Disciples gasped in disbelief as they stared at the Arena before them.
They witnessed Qin Tian, struck by Wu Lie's punch, shatter into pieces.
In an instant, he vanished without a trace.
Then, a slender figure swiftly appeared behind him. Following that, a Jiao Long roared into existence from the fist of that figure.
Dragon Fist!
Bang!
This Dragon Fist landed squarely on Wu Lie's vulnerable back. The Great Achievement Realm Dragon Fist contained all of Qin Tian's current strength. Caught completely off guard, Wu Lie spat out a mouthful of blood, his organs in turmoil, and he fell immediately.
Next, his body crashed heavily into the center of the Arena.
Boom!
The massive Arena was shattered into fragments by Wu Lie's body.
Qin Tian, who had fallen to the ground, didn't even glance at him. He turned and approached Shen Tianming: "How could I possibly die so easily?"
"Brother Tian."
Shen Tianming bit his lip stubbornly. He understood that this young man before him had done all of this because of him.
"I don't care how powerful your backgrounds are or how high your connections reach. Anyone who dares to harm my brother will die!"
The words struck the hearts of everyone present with a fierce intensity. Today's Qin Tian was a completely different person from the Qin Tian of the past. This battle had shaken many of the Outer Sect Disciples.
Before Qin Tian's words had even faded, a sharp shout suddenly enveloped the entire Dueling Arena.
"Anyone who dares to kill my people will not leave here today."
As the voice fell, a figure descended from the pavilion, carrying an overwhelming fury—it was Luo Tianyu.
Upon seeing Luo Tianyu, many in the Dueling Arena gasped in shock.
If Wu Lie could be considered a mid-tier strongman among the Outer Sect, then Luo Tianyu was undoubtedly the Heavenly Pride of the Outer Sect. Looking across the entire Outer Sect, the only one who could be compared to him was Su Mu Yi, who had a similar background.
"It is said that Senior Brother Tianyu has recently stepped into the Meridian Realm Fifth Layer. Truly, he is our Outer Sect's Heavenly Pride!"
"Who can argue with that? Senior Brother Tianyu's talent is unmatched even in the Inner Sect!"
"Wu Lie's backing is Luo Tianyu. If Qin Tian dares to kill Wu Lie, Luo Tianyu will not let him off."
As discussions erupted among those in the Arena, the atmosphere became intensely oppressive. They were right; Luo Tianyu was indeed the Heavenly Pride of the Outer Sect. Among countless disciples, only Su Mu Yi could stand alongside him.
Moreover, it was rumored that even Su Mu Yi admitted he was no match for Luo Tianyu.
"Do you dare to sign a life-and-death contract with me and settle this in the Arena?"
Luo Tianyu coldly gazed at Qin Tian, a fierce flame of wrath flickering deep within his eyes. Wu Lie was merely his lackey; whether or not he avenged him made little difference. However, what truly ignited Luo Tianyu's desire to act was Gong Xueyi's affection for Qin Tian.
This was the main reason behind Luo Tianyu's current aggression.
"I..."
Qin Tian, pulled by Shen Tianming's sleeve, was about to speak.
But unexpectedly, a cascade of colorful lights suddenly fell upon the Dueling Arena. In an instant, a graceful figure descended from the sky, stepping on the radiant beams.
A captivating fragrance filled the air, even Qin Tian, whose heart was as solid as a rock, felt a momentary stir within. He gazed in astonishment at the enchanting silhouette standing before him.
Dressed in white like an immortal, with hair cascading like a waterfall and a slender waist, just the sight of her back gave off an ethereal feeling.
All the Outer Sect Disciples present were left dumbfounded.
Gong Xueyi had always been the dream girl of all Outer Sect Disciples and even Inner Sect Disciples. Such a person, who seemed indifferent to worldly affairs and possessed an extraordinary background and talent, was someone that many Heavenly Pride individuals from the Inner Sect wished to approach but had no means to do so.
Yet today, why was she helping this guy, Qin Tian?
In an instant, countless gazes turned icy as knives, piercing fiercely into Qin Tian's face.
Noticing the change in the crowd, Qin Tian felt speechless; he himself did not understand what was happening.
"Taking advantage of others' misfortune is your way of doing things, Luo Tianyu?"
Gong Xueyi ignored everyone's stares, her eyes flashing as she looked at Luo Tianyu standing a few steps away.
"You..." Luo Tianyu's sharp fingertip grazed over the wound on his palm, causing blood to flow once more. In the next moment, he suppressed his impulse and a smile suddenly appeared on his lips. "Fine, since you insist on protecting him. I'll give him a chance. Qin Tian, I give you one month. By the time of the Outer Sect Grand Competition, I hope you won't hide behind a woman like a coward."
With those words, he turned without hesitation and walked away.
“Is it the January Pact? I'm looking forward to it too!”
Qin Tian's second pupil in his right eye slowly faded away at that moment.
Immediately, a faint smile appeared on his lips.
“I'll only help you this once.”
As Luo Tianyu left, Gong Xueyi did not look back, transforming into a streak of light and swiftly disappearing into the horizon.
“Let's go too!”
Qin Tian looked at Shen Tianming and took him to the Alchemist's Chamber. Under the elder's treatment, he was fully recovered in just two days.
...
Two days later, at Xuanwu Pavilion.
The Xuan Yang Sword Sect had countless disciples and numerous mountain gates, all seeking resources to enhance their cultivation. There were generally two ways to obtain these resources: having a good background or striving for them on one's own.
To strive for them on one's own meant taking on missions to accumulate Merit Points, which could then be exchanged for resources.
Xuanwu Pavilion was the place where missions were accepted.
Missions were generally divided into Outer Sect level and Inner Sect level.
Outer Sect level missions were usually simpler tasks. The requirement was to reach the Threefold Realm of Meridian Opening. Previously, Qin Tian had not qualified to accept missions. After stepping into the Threefold Realm of Meridian Opening, he finally gained that qualification.
Qin Tian and Shen Tianming walked through the crowd, where countless Outer Sect Disciples stared at Qin Tian with a look of disbelief.
Defeating Wu Kui was not enough to draw attention. Even defeating Wu Lie, while it would garner some notice, would not provoke such a strong reaction.
Even being bound by Luo Tianyu's January Pact did not carry such weight.
The main reason for this was Gong Xueyi's attitude towards Qin Tian.
As the dream lover of all disciples of the Xuan Yang Sword Sect, every move Gong Xueyi made caused a stir. Just two days ago, she had shielded Qin Tian from danger and declared, "I will only help you this once."
This instantly shifted everyone's focus to Autumn Huo.
"Cough, cough, Brother Tian, look at how these people are staring at you. It's as if they want to eat you alive. Haha."
"Stop talking and hurry up to take the mission."
Qin Tian felt quite embarrassed as he led Shen Tianming into the Xuanwu Pavilion, approaching the elders.
"So there are so many levels of missions?"
This was Qin Tian's first visit, and he naturally didn't understand that even Outer Sect missions were categorized in such detail. In the end, they chose a task that offered a good amount of Merit Points but seemed relatively safe.
—Wolf Hunt.
"I've done the Wolf Hunt before; it's not too dangerous. As long as you don't act recklessly, there shouldn't be any problems."
Shen Tianming confidently patted his chest and pulled the first-timer Qin Tian deeper into the Xuanwu Pavilion.
The square was vast, filled with many skilled individuals. Upon the arrival of Qin Tian, countless gazes turned fervently towards him. Clearly, they had already regarded Qin Tian as an enemy.
"Is it really that exaggerated?"
Shen Tianming felt somewhat speechless, but Qin Tian beside him was already accustomed to such attention. After all, he had experienced this kind of scrutiny many years ago.
"Tianming, over here!"
At that moment, a melodious voice emerged from the crowd.
Shen Tianming looked over and saw a graceful figure standing amidst the throng. The tight-fitting red outfit accentuated the girl's delicate form, while her braided hair framed a beautiful face, radiating youthful vitality.
"Wow, Tianming, you have quite the luck!"
Qin Tian smiled slightly, his words carrying a hint of meaning.
"Don't say that. Didn't I tell you? I once took on a Wolf Hunt mission, and we were teammates last time."
Shen Tianming replied shyly, unaware that his face had already turned red.
"You've won, you've won."
Qin Tian couldn't help but chuckle as Shen Tianming led him over to the girl.
"You guys don’t have a team yet, right? How about joining ours?"
The girl smiled sweetly.
"Alright."
Qin Tian and Shen Tianming had no objections.
However, just as they agreed, a figure suddenly appeared before them.
"Little Junior Sister, our team doesn't accept useless people."
It was a young man in black, his eyes filled with arrogance and defiance, as if there was no one in this world he deemed worthy of his attention.
"Su Murian, what do you want? They are my friends, Ling Miaoyi."
Ling Miaoyi seemed unwilling to back down at all.
Upon hearing this, Su Murian's gaze turned icy. His eyes swept over Shen Tianming and landed on Qin Tian's face before he snorted coldly and turned to leave.
"I'll be watching to see what use you two useless ones have!"
