Hearing Qin Tian's words, especially the way he drawled out "dumbass," Liu Huachen immediately clenched his fists.

"What, thinking about making a move? Might as well do it now, save yourself the embarrassment this afternoon when you lose completely and ruin your reputation."

Qin Tian looked at the angry Liu Huachen and spoke slowly and deliberately.

The forceful stance made Liu Huachen's cheeks twitch, especially since the person in front of him was supposedly a slave disciple he looked down on!

"You filthy scumbags!"

Liu Huachen gritted his teeth, "Oppose me, and you're all finished!"

"Hahaha, if you can fight, don't just talk. Are you backing down?"

Qin Tian knew Liu Huachen was hesitating and smirked.

Liu Huachen also sneered, "Hmph, knocking you down here is too easy! This afternoon, I want you to kneel in front of everyone from the Qilin Mountain Sect and beg for mercy!"

"Oh, should I sing 'Surrender' while kneeling? You really dream a lot, dumbass."

Qin Tian continued using his taunt skill, but before he finished, Liu Huachen snorted coldly and turned away in anger.

"It's fine now, get some rest, no need to bother with people like that. Just scum."

After Liu Huachen left, Qin Tian held Qiao Wenxuan and reassured her.

Qiao Wenxuan nodded, though her face still showed worry, "Qin Tian, the way you insulted him, I'm worried about this afternoon..."

"Nothing to worry about. This afternoon, I'll give you a surprise. Don't forget what you promised me."

Qin Tian smiled at Qiao Wenxuan.

Qiao Wenxuan was taken aback, looking at Qin Tian, "Did I promise you something?"

"Friendly reminder, if I reach the Primordial Pill stage, remember what you said you wanted?"

"You..."

Upon hearing Qin Tian's words, Qiao Wenxuan was both surprised and delighted, looking at Qin Tian, "Qin Tian, is it true? You've really reached the Primordial Pill stage? This is impossible..."

"Let's go, to see what happens next, attend the tournament this afternoon."

Qin Tian swaggered back to his room.

After a midday rest, at two o'clock in the afternoon, people gathered at the Main Vein Martial Arts Square on time.

Once the refereeing elders and disciples were all present, Ning Qingyun and other sect leaders and heavyweight elders slowly arrived and took their seats.

While walking, several elders were quietly discussing the afternoon's situation.

The Unrivaled Duo and the Five Quins have entered the top eight, and now they're wondering who will make it to the final four, perhaps even the semifinals.

"No need to discuss the finals, it's sure to be Yu Wenfeng and Chu Lingfeng meeting. In the semifinals, which other two will break through?"

"I can't guarantee others, but Liu Huachen should be fine. Qin Tian may be a dark horse, but his skill is only so-so. Making it to the top eight is already his limit; there's no way he can match Liu Huachen."

"That's true. If Yu Wenfeng and Liu Huachen break through in the upper half, and Zhao Hanshuang and Chu Lingfeng in the lower half, then the top four will again be evenly matched between Main Vein and Right Vein."

Many elders weren't focusing on Qin Tian but considering the balance of power between the Main and Right Veins.

The Right Vein's strength has been growing, and to say they don't have thoughts of overthrowing the Main Vein would be a lie.

This Three Veins Martial Arts represents the strongest show of reserved strength for each vein.

Don't be fooled by Ning Qingyun and Xie Yunzhen's facade of mocking Qiao Zheng and the Left Vein, they are actually battling in the shadows.

"To save time, this afternoon's matches will start with all eight participants simultaneously!"

After a brief opening speech, the refereeing elder gave a command, and the top eight disciples each bowed their heads and walked onto the stage.

The audience erupted in cheers.

Among the cheers, the shouts of Chu Lingfeng, Yu Wenfeng, and Qin Tian were noticeably louder than those for the others.

This made Liu Huachen standing on stage grind his teeth in anger till his cheeks twitched.

"Hmph, a slave disciple, what right does he have to enjoy the cheers of others? Striking lucky doesn't change the fact that he's a pile of crap!"

Liu Huachen spoke viciously.

Qin Tian chuckled lightly, "If I'm crap, then you're not even as good as crap."

"Oh really? Hmph, you're giving yourself too much credit."

As Liu Huachen spoke, his whole body was surrounded by True Qi, forming a thick layer of defense around him.

"This is my newly mastered Nine Heavens True Qi Shield, hmph, perfected to its peak, indestructible! Qin Tian, it's not that I underestimate you, but even if I let you strike three times, you still won't stand a chance!"

"Oh please, can you stop bragging so much?"

Qin Tian rolled his eyes, "This shield of yours? Indestructible? Do you take me for a three-year-old? This shield would fit your chest perfectly, using it in a fight, I'm dying of laughter..."

"Bastard!"

Liu Huachen roared with anger, channeling his True Qi again, and his body's True Qi Shield became even thicker!

Many in the audience were amazed to see Liu Huachen display the Nine Heavens True Qi Shield; this was definitely top-tier martial arts for someone at the Qi Refinement Realm!

Liu Huachen had actually perfected it!

"Come, you say I'm bluffing? Hmph, with your current strength, come on, I'll let you hit me three times, let's see what True Qi power you have!"

Liu Huachen's arrogant aura showed through, patting his chest, "Hit here, I'll let you punch three times, after which, I'll make you admit defeat!"

"You said it."

Qin Tian smiled coldly, his right hand circulating True Qi, an overflowing tide of True Qi power surged from his Dan Tian Qi Sea, gathering on his fist, forming waves of True Qi blades.

"Come on then, what are you waiting for, chickened out?"

Seeing Qin Tian's fist only gathering energy but not striking, Liu Huachen taunted, pointing at his own chest.

His shout attracted more attention.

The quarterfinals, Liu Huachen letting Qin Tian strike three times first? Isn't he a bit overconfident!?

This Liu Huachen, how strong is he really?

Many viewers were dumbfounded, their faces puzzled.

Of course, Ning Qingyun, the master of the Main Vein, was also puzzled.

Seeing Liu Huachen allow Qin Tian three moves, his expression changed drastically, "What is that brat Liu Huachen doing! Letting him have three moves? Didn't he realize that Qin Tian's true strength is actually comparable to his?"

Ning Qingyun was very dissatisfied with Liu Huachen's behavior at this critical moment, but from his distant vantage point, he had no choice.

In the blink of an eye, he saw Qin Tian already making his move on stage!

Another True Qi Six Explosions!

"Wait, this guy, why does his True Qi power seem to have reached the Primordial Pill stage?!"

When Qin Tian's True Qi pressure was almost upon him, Liu Huachen suddenly sensed the difference in Qin Tian's True Qi strength, his expression changed drastically, preparing to defend with his protective shield while crossing his arms to counterattack!

However, it was already too late.
