When joining the Verjansy Country, Rean also brought Trian with him. He kept the story of being Trian's younger brother, and through the training that Rean secretly provided, Trian's strength advanced by leaps and bounds.
In the last event of the Martial Gathering, Trian was also part of one of the groups that made it to the second phase. However, he lost there, so he didn't take part in the last part, the Core Seizing. Nonetheless, his strength was recognized, so the Verjansy Country was more than happy to take him in.
Now, Trian had 'fallen behind' Rean in cultivation, and since Trian was on his own, there wasn't much of a need for Rean to pretend to be weaker than him. In time, their positions actually shifted, and it was now Trian who relied more on Rean than the other way around.
Of course, as the one who brought Trian to this position, Rean took good care of him, and today, he called the boy over. "Oh, big brother, you came!"
