Special Expert of Beauty CEO

Standing on the podium, Ning Qingyun felt extremely awkward at the moment.

In the past, he always awarded prizes to the Main Vein disciples, or at the very least Right Pulse disciples.

This time, he had prepared to award Chu Lingfeng in the Three Veins Martial Arts Tournament.

But now, it turned out to be Qin Tian from the Left Pulse, the disciple he looked down upon the most!

He was in a dilemma.

The Elder Council of the Qilin Mountain Sect, which is above the Sect Leader, was not something Ning Qingyun, with his current status and strength, dared to oppose.

So, he hesitated for a few seconds, then had to put on a grim face and walked, under everyone’s gaze, to the stage that had been cut in half by Qin Tian.

This year’s prize for the champion of the Three Veins Martial Arts Tournament was a storage bag containing a thousand Mid Grade Spirit Stones and a hundred High Grade Spirit Stones, as well as a First Grade Upper Rank Alchemy Cauldron, particularly the latter, which was priceless.

Ning Qingyun went on stage, handed the prize to Qin Tian, and quickly and awkwardly stepped down without even congratulating Qin Tian.

Instead, when handing the prize to Qin Tian, he shot a fierce glare at Qin Tian, as if warning him about something.

The referee Elder sensed the awkward atmosphere and announced, ”As per tradition, the champion of the Three Veins Martial Arts Tournament automatically qualifies for next year’s selection at East Han Academy, congratulations!”

Automatically qualify for East Han Academy’s selection?

Hearing this, Qin Tian’s heart skipped a beat; he hadn’t heard of this reward before.

He only knew that East Han Academy was one of the two major academies in East State, officially run, and essentially the highest institution for all immortality cultivators in East State!

Qin Tian’s enemy was at Spiritual Mountain Academy, and Qin Tian had always wanted to go to the academy to cultivate. Unexpectedly, the Three Veins Martial Arts Tournament gave him this opportunity.

When the Three Veins Martial Arts Tournament ended and everyone dispersed, the entire Left Pulse group, led by Qiao Zheng, headed directly towards the Left Pulse.

At this moment, Qiao Zheng’s usual bitter expression was gone, replaced by visible happiness on his face.

He laughed, and today’s smile was more than in the past decade put together.

Qin Tian made him proud!

”Gao Dazhuang, today you must cook a good meal, let’s celebrate for Qin Tian and drink!” said the joyful Qiao Zheng.

Gao Dazhuang nodded: ”Master, don’t worry, tonight I will surely make a table of good wine and dishes. I’ll have Qin Tian as the head chef, and I’ll be his assistant, it will definitely be delicious.”

”Still having Qin Tian go to the kitchen to cook?”

Qiao Zheng stopped walking and laughed: ”Now Qin Tian is our Left Pulse’s treasure, your role model, he can’t be in the kitchen, it’s beneath him.”

”Master, I can cook, I can try it tonight,” said Song Qiuyue.

”I can cook too,” Li Xinfu volunteered as well.

Qiao Zheng was about to speak when Qin Tian stepped forward and said, ”Master, everyone is happy today, and since everyone likes my cooking, I’ll do the cooking, hehe, we are all one family, no need to distinguish these…”

Qiao Zheng nodded: ”Hmm, after winning the championship of the Three Veins Martial Arts Tournament, you still remain humble and maintain a modest heart, you have a promising future, kid.”

After speaking, Qiao Zheng turned his head and gave Qiao Wenxuan a meaningful look, his face still smiling as he did so.

Qiao Wenxuan met Qiao Zheng’s gaze, and seeing Qiao Zheng’s expression, she instantly tensed up, and her face flushed red.

”Hahaha... hahaha... good. From now on, if I’m not around, Qin Tian will take charge of the Left Pulse. Hahaha!”

Qiao Zheng laughed heartily, with a content spirit.

Qiao Wenxuan exchanged a glance with Qin Tian and then suddenly noticed Gao Dazhuang’s mysterious smile, making her face even redder.

The main group walked ahead, while Qin Tian and Qiao Wenxuan slowed their pace, walking behind.

The two of them walked like a couple, strolling in the forest of Qilin Mountain.

Gao Dazhuang managed things well, dragging Liang Xiaoyu and Li Xinfu and others to walk quickly ahead, deliberately creating a space for Qin Tian and Qiao Wenxuan to be alone together.

”I didn’t expect you to truly cultivate to the Primordial Pill stage, and even defeated the two supreme talents, winning the champion of the Three Veins Martial Arts Tournament, Qin Tian, you really surprised me...”

Qiao Wenxuan remarked as she walked.

Qin Tian said, ”Defeating Yu Wenfeng was expected, defeating Chu Lingfeng had a bit of luck involved; he didn’t foresee the power of my last move. Otherwise, I might have to battle with him for more than half an hour to determine the winner.”

”Even so, that’s still amazing.”

Qiao Wenxuan paused, gazed at Qin Tian with deep eyes, and said, ”You’re already a big name in the Qilin Mountain Sect. I heard, many in the Main Vein and Right Pulse compare you to a once-in-fifty-years immortality prodigy in the Qilin Mountain Sect, even better than the two supreme talents... they even call you the Inspirational Brother, the first among slave disciples in East State.”

”Inspirational Brother... haha, I’m not interested in these titles.”

”But... but I feel like I’m not worthy of you.”

After hesitating a bit, Qiao Wenxuan spoke her mind, looking at Qin Tian with a very serious expression, ”My immortality cultivation talent is quite ordinary. In this lifetime, I might only reach the Early or Middle Primordial Pill stage... but you, your immortality cultivation future seems boundless, compared to you, though I don’t want to admit it, I truly feel insignificant...”

”Why would you say such things?”

Qin Tian interrupted Qiao Wenxuan, speaking with earnestness: ”Do you think I would disdain you? Wenxuan, when I was a slave disciple, you never looked down on me, so do you think I would be the kind of person to look down on you now?”

”No, I believe in your character, but... next year you will participate in East Han Academy’s selection. I think with your strength, you really might get chosen by East Han Academy. If you are chosen, you’ll go to East Capital, the capital city of East State, a place for the wealthy, where immortality talents gather, handsome men and beautiful women are countless... I... compared to those women, I’m insignificant...”

”Silly, what are you thinking, why compare yourself?”

Qin Tian understood Qiao Wenxuan’s worry and said seriously, ”Wenxuan, I’ve told you before, I have girlfriends, and more than one. If you mind my past, I respect your decision. If you don’t mind, then I can also tell you, if you don’t abandon me, I won’t leave you.”

Upon hearing this, Qiao Wenxuan was taken aback.

She blinked her beautiful eyes, then opened her arms and excitedly threw herself into Qin Tian’s embrace.

”Qin Tian, I don’t aspire to get anything from you. Even if you go to East Capital, I won’t follow you; I’ll stay in the Left Pulse, take care of my father, and the junior brothers and sisters of the Left Pulse… share life and death with the Left Pulse. Just, one day, when you want to return to the Left Pulse, and you want to go home, remember, I’ll always be waiting for you in the Left Pulse…”
