Ling Tengyun's face was filled with horror, still unaware of what was happening.
Meanwhile, Wu Tian coldly eyed the girl.
He felt her methods were too extreme.
Although Ling Tengyun was no good, she had intended to take his life, something not easily done by ordinary people.
The girl still showed no intention of speaking.
She continued to meet Wu Tian's gaze with a calm look, her dark eyes like the deep ocean at midnight, still and waveless, yet seeming to swallow one whole.
After a few seconds of this silent exchange, the girl suddenly brushed past Wu Tian and left, leaving behind a faint, chilling fragrance.
Ling Tengyun finally came to his senses.
He shouted at Wu Tian, "Why did you let her go? She dared to do this to me, and I won't let her off!"
Wu Tian replied coldly, "If you're not satisfied, then go find her yourself."
"But if you get killed, it has nothing to do with me."
Ling Tengyun was stunned, and then felt a chill in his heart.
The girl had acted without hesitation and with lethal intent, which made him feel afraid.
However, a fire of anger burned within him, so he redirected his fury and shouted at Wu Tian, "You dared to push me just now, how dare you!"
Seeing his inexplicable outburst, Wu Tian said coldly, "You really know how to make a mountain out of a molehill."
"If I hadn't pushed you away, you would be dead by now. Do you want to die that badly?"
Ling Tengyun knew Wu Tian had saved him, but he still felt displeased.
After all, there were so many people present!
And Wu Tian had pushed him down right in front of everyone, causing him to lose face.
Therefore, instead of being grateful to Wu Tian, he felt Wu Tian was deliberately humiliating him.
He angrily retorted, "When did I ever say I wanted you to save me?"
"Let me tell you, I actually knew she was going to make a move on me, I was just playing along."
"Do you know what you just did? It was completely unnecessary!"
Seeing Ling Tengyun's unreasonable behavior, Wu Tian felt too lazy to bother with him.
For people like him, no amount of words would be useful; it would only lead to endless bickering.
He said coldly, "It was unnecessary of me. Then I hope next time you die, your blood doesn't splash on me."
"You!" Ling Tengyun wanted to curse Wu Tian.
But Wu Tian ignored him and walked straight ahead.
Ling Tengyun, filled with unvented rage, could only stomp his foot.
After a few of them were seated, most of the participating contestants had arrived.
The event organizers walked onto the stage, and everyone quieted down.
As the competition was being held in Bird Country, the speaker was a local.
Each contestant was provided with a simultaneous interpretation headset, so language was not an issue.
According to the speaker's introduction, a total of sixteen countries were participating in the grand competition.
Each country had five contestants, and the competition would be divided into group stages, quarterfinals, semifinals, and the finals.
In the group stages, countries would be drawn to determine their opponents.
Each country's contestants would engage in 5v5 duels, and the country with the most wins would be declared the victor of the match.
After explaining the rules, the drawing ceremony began on the stage.
Before long, the eight matchups were drawn.
The team from China would be facing the team from India.
Upon seeing the draw results, someone on Wu Tian's side immediately became uneasy.
His eyes trembled as he said, "No way, isn't our luck too bad?"
"It's only the group stage, and we've already run into the Indian team."
"Didn't the president say earlier that Imram from the Indian team is a formidable opponent? Doesn't this directly increase the difficulty of our group stage?"
Ling Tengyun said coldly, "What's wrong with that? Can you stop being so demoralizing?"
"I've looked into Imram. Their family's Divine Bull Needle technique is indeed powerful, but so what?"
"China is the birthplace of traditional Chinese medicine. If we can't even defeat India, then why are we even participating in this competition?"
"Just you watch, whether it's the Divine Bull Needle or the Divine Sheep Needle, it's all nonsense to me!"
"I can crush him with just one finger!"
Hearing this, Wu Tian couldn't help but shake his head.
This Ling Tengyun was truly too arrogant!
It seemed he would eventually face consequences for his actions.
As the group draw concluded, the pre-competition meeting was essentially over.
The official group stage matches would commence in two days. For the time being, the contestants would be arranged to rest well in their hotels.
After the meeting, Wu Tian and the others walked out of the building.
Ling Tengyun was full of confidence for the competition, boasting about himself all the way, while the others echoed his sentiments.
However, at this moment, Wu Tian suddenly stopped.
Ling Tengyun noticed his unusual behavior and frowned, asking, "What are you doing now?"
Wu Tian didn't answer, his gaze becoming more focused.
Ling Tengyun and the others followed his gaze and were all stunned for a moment.
It was the girl in the black dress from earlier!
The girl walked to the side of the street, and a waiting luxury car immediately opened its door, revealing someone like a butler.
With the butler's respectful service, the girl got into the luxury car, and soon, the car drove away from their sight.
Ling Tengyun remarked, "It seems this woman is also a wealthy person!"
"But then again, who among those participating in the competition isn't wealthy?"
"Unlike some people, wearing such cheap clothes and daring to show their faces here."
As he said this, he couldn't help but glance at Wu Tian.
Seeing that Wu Tian wasn't paying attention to him, he immediately became displeased and said, "Hey! What are you looking at!"
"What's her status, do you think you have any chance?"
Wu Tian said coldly, "Are you an idiot? Didn't you see what kind of flag was on that car?"
"What did you say?" Hearing Wu Tian's words, Ling Tengyun suddenly froze.
Then, he suddenly remembered that on the front of the luxury car, a black flag was fluttering in the wind.
And in the center of the flag, a blood-red character "Ye" was clearly printed.
That character "Ye" was as red as blood, appearing even more chilling against the black background.
That was clearly... the emblem of the Night God family!
"That woman, she's from the Night God family?!"
Instantly, Ling Tengyun couldn't help but exclaim in shock, his mind going blank.
