Wu Tian's sudden, violent reaction startled both Xiao Ding and Xiao Meng.
They stared at Wu Tian in surprise, unsure why he had suddenly changed.
"Hey, what are you doing? Standing up so abruptly is really scary!" Xiao Meng complained, frowning because Wu Tian had frightened her.
But she was stunned again as she noticed Wu Tian's expression was still exceptionally serious, as if he had heard something terrifying.
Xiao Ding couldn't help but ask Wu Tian, "Wu Tian, what's wrong? Are you alright?"
Wu Tian stared at Xiao Ding and said, "You just... mentioned the Miraculous Little Divine Doctor Sect, right? Tell me, what's Liu Shiyu's connection to the Miraculous Little Divine Doctor Sect?"
He was too shocked, his mind a complete mess, so he didn't bother being polite with Xiao Ding for a moment.
Xiao Ding didn't mind, as he could tell that Wu Tian's reaction must have a reason.
So he directly replied, "Seeing your reaction, I assume you know what the Miraculous Little Divine Doctor Sect represents."
"That's right, Liu Shiyu is supported by the Miraculous Little Divine Doctor Sect. I'm not entirely sure of the details, but I heard they provided him with some assistance."
"After all, the Miraculous Little Divine Doctor Sect is one of the top three sects among the hidden spiritual sects, and they specialize in medical arts. So even with a little help from the Miraculous Little Divine Doctor Sect, that Liu Shiyu is definitely not simple."
Wu Tian slowly sat back down on the sofa as he listened to Xiao Ding.
His expression remained stiff, and his eyes were a little unfocused, showing that he still hadn't recovered from the shock.
However, he couldn't be blamed. If this matter involved the Miraculous Little Divine Doctor Sect, the situation would be unusual, and he couldn't calm himself down.
Seeing that he remained silent, Xiao Ding asked again, "Wu Tian, what exactly is wrong with you?"
"Is there something wrong with the Miraculous Little Divine Doctor Sect?"
Wu Tian didn't want to explain much to Xiao Ding, so he simply shook his head and said, "I'm fine."
But Xiao Meng certainly didn't believe that.
She couldn't help but say, "What do you mean you're fine? I think you're very much not fine right now."
"What's wrong with you? Tell us, maybe we can help you?"
Wu Tian was already somewhat agitated, and Xiao Meng's question only made him more irritable.
Without thinking, he blurted out, "What does it have to do with you? Can you stop asking?"
Xiao Meng was stunned. She never expected Wu Tian to speak to her like that, and with such a harsh tone.
For a moment, she felt both angry and wronged. She huffed and yelled, "Why are you being so fierce? Fine, you do your own thing, I'm not talking to you anymore!"
Wu Tian realized he had lost his composure and apologized to Xiao Meng, "I'm sorry, I wasn't in a good mood just now. Please forgive me."
Xiao Meng snorted and truly ignored Wu Tian.
Xiao Ding, knowing that Wu Tian must have something on his mind, asked again, "Wu Tian, what's wrong? Is there anything we can help with?"
Wu Tian shook his head and said, "I'm fine. Send me the competition venue and exact time to my phone. I'll be there for the match."
"I'm feeling a bit unwell right now, so I'm leaving."
After speaking, Wu Tian didn't linger any longer. He got up and left immediately.
Xiao Meng and Xiao Ding were very confused by this but didn't say much more.
On the way back, Wu Tian drove with a very bad mood.
The news Xiao Ding brought him made it impossible for him to remain calm.
He never would have imagined that this matter would involve the Miraculous Little Divine Doctor Sect.
He had an unclear and complicated entanglement with the Miraculous Little Divine Doctor Sect, and even his background was related to them.
After his previous experience with Su Qian Nai, he deeply understood that the Miraculous Little Divine Doctor Sect might not bring him any good.
This behemoth... might even be his enemy.
He had thought he would at least have to face the Miraculous Little Divine Doctor Sect half a year later, but he didn't expect to encounter them preliminarily this time.
After driving for more than ten kilometers, Wu Tian's mood improved slightly.
He thought to himself that he didn't need to be so agitated, why bother? No matter how much he fretted, it would only lead to self-torment in the end.
Since that Liu Shiyu was the one supported by the Miraculous Little Divine Doctor Sect, then he absolutely could not let Liu Shiyu achieve his goal.
He would do his best to defeat Liu Shiyu, which would also be a form of revenge against the Miraculous Little Divine Doctor Sect!
With this thought, Wu Tian cast aside his distractions and drove home.
Later that evening, Xiao Ding sent him the competition venue and exact time.
The time was the morning of the day after tomorrow, at eight o'clock. Everyone had to gather at the provincial capital of S Province.
S Province was the wealthiest province in the south, nearly a thousand kilometers away from where Wu Tian was.
Driving there was impossible.
So the next day, Wu Tian flew directly to the provincial capital of S Province, found a hotel to sleep, and then went straight to the competition venue.
The competition venue was chosen at the central stadium in the provincial capital. Today, the central stadium was heavily guarded, with long queues at the entrance. Most of the people queuing were participants.
These people all had confident and proud expressions, exuding an air of self-assurance, as if victory in the competition was already within their grasp.
However, it was understandable that they were so confident, as they were all geniuses from their respective provinces, considered the top talents among the younger generation in their regions.
No one was willing to concede to another, and everyone believed they could win the championship.
Wu Tian silently joined the queue at the back. When it was his turn, he presented his ID card and smoothly entered the venue.
The main arena was a basketball court, which looked very grand.
Resting areas had been marked out inside the court, and each contestant stayed in their respective resting areas for preparation.
Those contestants were all treasured talents, so each of them was accompanied by several attendants.
These attendants served the contestants with drinks and water, bustling about like servants attending young masters and ladies.
Xiao Ding had initially wanted to accompany Wu Tian, but Wu Tian had refused their escort.
After all, Wu Tian had grown up in the countryside and was far more independent and self-reliant than his peers, so he was unaccustomed to others taking care of him.
He sat alone on a chair in the resting area, looking at his phone, waiting for the official start of the competition.
As he was watching, suddenly, an angry voice was heard, "What exactly do you want to do!"
Wu Tian instinctively looked over and saw that not far from him, a conflict seemed to be unfolding.
A young man was looking at a girl with a sinister smile.
The girl, however, was filled with anger and indignation. The voice he heard clearly belonged to her.
