Qi Tian had sent Cheng Daoran flying with a single stone, making not only Cheng Daoran lose face. At the same time, the Nascent Soul Masters sitting together all turned their gazes towards the Nascent Soul Masters from the National Master Manor. Although they said nothing, the mockeries in their eyes were crystal clear for everyone to see. This made the Nascent Soul Masters from the National Master Manor feel a burning shame, as if their faces were scorched.

“Liu, Cheng Daoran has really embarrassed himself. As his elder, aren’t you going to check on him? Are you just going to let him lose all face for your Master? Or do you have some unspeakable difficulties that prevent you from making a move? No worries, if you can’t act, I can. What do you say? Do you need me to step in? My demands are not high—just invite me for a drink afterwards.”

One of the Nascent Soul Masters finally spoke up.

The Nascent Soul Master from the National Master Manor stayed silent, neither agreeing nor disagreeing. Seeing him like this, the other Nascent Soul Masters lost interest and no longer felt like teasing the Nascent Soul Master from the National Master Manor.

It was at this moment, Cheng Daoran, with eyes spitting fire, glared at Qi Tian for some time. The harsh reality made him realize he was no match for Qi Tian; if he rushed forward again, he might just be sent flying once more. He could incite his fellow disciples to gang up on Qi Tian, but doing so would be too humiliating for the National Master Manor. Besides, during the process, if he continued to act and couldn’t manage to suppress his cultivation, it could easily trigger his Nascent Soul Heavenly Tribulation. If that happened, it would be not just him but the entire Tribulation City that would be engulfed by the menace of the Nascent Soul Heavenly Tribulation, and he certainly wouldn’t be able to pass his own tribulation.

After hundreds of years of arduous effort, Cheng Daoran had finally achieved what he had today, and he was more eager than anyone to succeed in his tribulation. He believed with his accumulation, he had a very high chance of passing the Nascent Soul Heavenly Tribulation, otherwise, he wouldn’t have forced Huang Liuyan to marry him before his own tribulation.

Once he successfully traversed the tribulation and ascended to the Nascent Soul Realm to become a Nascent Soul Master, the benefits were self-evident. Dealing with Qi Tian would become easier. Even if he still could not beat Qi Tian, he could confidently lead his fellow disciples from the National Master Manor to gang up on Qi Tian without worrying about invoking another Heavenly Tribulation.

In an instant, Cheng Daoran sorted out his priorities. Pointing at Qi Tian, he said, “If you have the guts, don’t leave. After I surpass the Nascent Soul Heavenly Tribulation and become a Nascent Soul Master, we’ll have a proper contest. If I don’t beat you until you cry for your parents, my name isn’t ‘Cheng’.”

Qi Tian responded with a faint smile, “Fine, I’ll wait for you. Go on with your tribulation.”

Qi Tian’s nonchalant attitude was like a fishbone stuck in Cheng Daoran’s throat. Why did Qi Tian seem so unconcerned? Wasn’t he worried Cheng Daoran could pass the tribulation successfully?

Cheng Daoran signaled his fellow disciples with a glance, instructing them to keep an eye on Qi Tian to ensure no foul play and also to watch Huang Liuyan to prevent her from escaping amidst the chaos.

Cheng Daoran then glared fiercely at Huang Liuyan, who was hiding behind Qi Tian, before he rode his flying sword and flew out towards the outskirts of Tribulation City.

Huang Liuyan, watching Cheng Daoran’s retreating figure, couldn’t help but feel worried. She said to Qi Tian, “Cheng Daoran has been preparing for this Nascent Soul Heavenly Tribulation for many years. His preparations are very thorough, and his foundation is also very solid. Several Nascent Soul Stage seniors have said that Cheng Daoran has more than an eighty percent chance of successfully passing his Nascent Soul Heavenly Tribulation this time. Once he does, his strength will surely be greatly enhanced. Qi Tian, while Cheng Daoran has not yet succeeded, you should leave quickly.”

Qi Tian laughed, “Will you come with me, Sister Yan?”

Huang Liuyan shook her head, “Cheng Daoran’s target is me. As long as I stay here, he won’t trouble you, at least he won’t personally come after you. Qi Tian, I’m really happy that you stood up for me today, but you truly don’t need to put yourself at risk for my sake. It’s too unfair to you.”

Qi Tian smiled, “Sister Yan, thank you for your concern. Rest assured, let’s not even mention whether Cheng Daoran will succeed in his tribulation or not. Even if he does pass, he will not pose any threat to me. Put your heart at ease. If I can send him flying once, I can do it twice. If he continues to provoke me, I will make him doubt his life.”

Qi Tian spoke lightly, but Huang Liuyan couldn’t believe it and kept persuading him, yet she could never get Qi Tian to change his mind.

At that very moment, Cheng Daoran had already attracted his Nascent Soul Heavenly Tribulation. Several people before him had already failed, and according to the prevailing theories in the Cultivation World, the local Spirit Qi should have been greatly depleted, which would mean that the intensity and strength of Cheng Daoran’s approaching Nascent Soul Heavenly Tribulation should have decreased, making the tribulation easier to overcome. However, when the Nascent Soul Heavenly Tribulation truly began, people were shocked to find that Cheng Daoran’s tribulation was not any weaker than the previous individuals’. Both in intensity and strength, there was no sign of weakening—at least from the perspective of the bystanders, it seemed that way.
