Chapter 310 - Tough Position
"What\'s going on? Why is he here when he doesn\'t have any points? Get lost!" a youth roared not far away from Liu Wuxie.
The third level of the True Core Realm was insignificant in the Heavenly Treasure Pavilion. It was only barely higher than miscellaneous disciples. The one who spoke was in the fifth level, and it was no wonder he was arrogant.
The deacon glared at Liu Wuxie furiously with malice because someone dared to cause trouble for him.
"Take your medal and get lost!" The deacon said without glancing at Liu Wuxie, ordering him to leave and stop holding everyone up.
A hint of anger flashed on Liu Wuxie\'s face because he wasn\'t done speaking, and the deacon didn\'t even bat an eye at his medal.
"Take a look at it closely. I qualify to enter the Book Collection Hall without paying any points!" Liu Wuxie slammed the medal on the table, and his voice caused an uproar in the crowd.
The news of the six priority students had long spread out, unprecedented in the past. They were qualified to receive double resources and points and didn\'t have to pay any points to enter the Book Collection Hall. Furthermore, they could receive a lecture from an elder once a month.
The deacon frowned upon hearing that. He had received news that six disciples wouldn\'t need to pay any points to enter the Book Collection Hall. But he hadn\'t expected a priority disciple’s cultivation to be so low.
"Brat, are you sane? I heard that the priority disciples are all powerful and are in the sixth level of the True Core Realm. But you\'re only in the third level." Jeering voices came from the surroundings. They all thought that Liu Wuxie was trying to bluff his way through. Everyone gloated as they looked at Liu Wuxie because trying to deceive a deacon was a big crime.
"I\'ve seen bold people, but I\'ve never seen someone as bold as you. How dare you try to deceive the deacon of the Book Collection Hall!" Among the Book Collection Hall\'s deacons, Deacon Kou was the toughest and sternest to deal with.
Everyone waited eagerly, unwilling to miss a moment of the spectacle. Hundreds of gazes fixed upon Liu Wuxie, each harboring a hint of malice.
Deacon Kou slammed his palm on the desk, causing Liu Wuxie\'s medal to fly. His face became cold, and he planned to inform the Law Enforcement Hall to arrest Liu Wuxie for violating the sect\'s rules. He asked in an unfriendly tone, "Brat, which peak are you from, and what\'s your name?"
Liu Wuxie initially intended to resolve this matter peacefully as long as this deacon allowed him in. But he didn\'t expect Deacon Kou to try to make things difficult for him, not even giving him the chance to speak.
Ultimately, it was because Liu Wuxie\'s cultivation was too low, and no one would believe someone in the third level of the True Core Realm to become a priority disciple.
"My name is Liu Wuxie, an outer disciple of the Heavenly Trigram Peak. I joined the Heavenly Treasure Pavilion yesterday. You can investigate my identity!" Liu Wuxie said, and his smile became colder, making Deacon Kou\'s face unsightly.
He didn\'t dare look at Liu Wuxie\'s eyes because it felt like a poisonous viper was looking at him, and he would be devoured if he wasn\'t careful. This made Deacon Kou uncomfortable, not to mention he felt a hint of pressure coming from someone who was only in the third level of the True Core Realm.
"Wait, I seem to have heard of this name before. I recall Liu Wuxie\'s name was among the priority disciples. Could it be him?" A cry of surprise came from the crowd because the names of the six priority disciples had long spread out. But everyone only knew their names and not their appearances.
"It might be a coincidence. After all, how can the sect possibly give such a precious spot to someone in the third level?" Everyone still had difficulty accepting that Liu Wuxie was a priority disciple. After all, many disciples were in the third-level True Core Realm and could be seen everywhere among the outer disciples. This was the first time they heard that a priority disciple was someone from the lower region.
This instantly made many people envious because they all had higher cultivation than Liu Wuxie, and they felt it was unfair that Liu Wuxie received preferential treatment.
"Are there any disciples from the Law Enforcement Hall?" Deacon Kou yelled, not wanting to waste time with Liu Wuxie. Every peak selected some disciples to join the Law Enforcement Hall each year.
"I\'m Zhu Sheng of the Law Enforcement Hall. What\'s going on?" A young man came over. He was in his late twenties, with cultivation in the pinnacle True Core Realm. He was only one step away from the Heavenly Dipper Realm.
However, he was merely an outer disciple of the Law Enforcement Hall. Only the core disciples in the Law Enforcement Hall had authority over the life and death of other disciples.
After becoming a core disciple, the sect wouldn\'t pursue it even if they killed an outer disciple. After all, the cultivation world was where only the strong were respected.
"This person tried to deceive his identity as a priority disciple to enter the Book Collection Hall. Take him away!" Deacon Kou said and sat back down, not wanting to bother about Liu Wuxie anymore.
Liu Wuxie only wanted to enter the Book Collection Hall and didn\'t expect to get into so much trouble.
"Brat, come with me!" Zhu Sheng said eerily. If Liu Wuxie were taken to the Law Enforcement Hall, things would be different because Liu Wuxie would have had to bribe them if he didn\'t want to suffer.
This was why so many disciples wanted to join the Law Enforcement Hall. After all, the benefits of the Law Enforcement Hall were widely known to everyone.
After all, who wouldn\'t make a mistake? They would suffer if they fell into the hands of the Law Enforcement Hall, and they would have to bribe the Law Enforcement Hall\'s disciples to get them to look the other way.
Zhu Sheng moved quickly, reaching out to grab Liu Wuxie\'s shoulder in an attempt to forcefully detain him.
"Get your filthy hands off me!" With a swift movement, Liu Wuxie shifted his left shoulder, causing Zhu Sheng\'s hand to brush past him.
This naturally made Zhu Sheng furious because no one dared to defy his will as a Law Enforcement Hall\'s disciple.
"Brat, you\'re courting death!" Zhu Sheng reached out with his right hand like a claw, reaching for Liu Wuxie\'s neck.
Seeing this, everyone quickly stepped back because they didn\'t want to get involved.
"Hmph, you think the pinnacle of the True Core Realm is powerful?" Liu Wuxie snorted. He might be unable to kill someone in the pinnacle of the True Core Realm, but it wouldn\'t be easy for them to kill him. With agile steps, Liu Wuxie easily avoided Zhu Sheng\'s attack.
Having his attack dodged repeatedly naturally made Zhu Sheng furious.
The surrounding outer disciples were stumped because Zhu Sheng had failed to detain Liu Wuxie.
Deacon Kou was cultivating in the Heavenly Phase Realm when he noticed something unusual with Liu Wuxie\'s footsteps. The first time might have been a coincidence, but the second time wasn\'t.
"Die!" Zhu Sheng became even more furious as he felt humiliated that he couldn\'t detain Liu Wuxie with so many people watching.
Zhu Sheng\'s attack became even more ferocious. This was because Law Enforcement Hall\'s disciples were known for brutality. After all, anyone with a soft heart wasn\'t suited to join the Law Enforcement Hall.
"Only listening to one side of the story without distinguishing right from wrong. How disappointing." Liu Wuxie had already anticipated facing troubles in the Heavenly Treasure Pavilion, but he didn\'t expect to encounter this situation on his first day, which naturally made him furious.
"Disciples of the Law Enforcement Hall don\'t need a reason to act!" The ferocity in Zhu Sheng\'s eyes grew even stronger with his right hand changing its trajectory. But he couldn\'t detain Liu Wuxie no matter how hard he tried, and this made him release his murderous intent.
As they went back and forth, Zhu Sheng\'s right hand left behind multiple afterimages, reaching for Liu Wuxie\'s chest. His moves were swift, and he was truly worthy of being a genius in the cultivation world.
Having experienced countless battles, Liu Wuxie naturally honed his strength to the fullest. He was like a celestial crane, soaring through the sky and gliding to appear behind Zhu Sheng, resolving the latter\'s attacks.
The two stood still, and Zhu Sheng\'s face was so ugly that he failed to detain Liu Wuxie with so many people around.
"Liu Wuxie, you\'re here! Hand over the spot into the Book Collection Hall!" Lin Mingxu and Gongsun Zhen came over from the crowd.
Although they had missed the opportunity to become a priority disciple, it was quite a coincidence that they managed to join the Heavenly Trigram Peak.
But that incident had a huge impact on them. They had lost to someone in the third level of the True Core Realm. How could they possibly accept it? They were planning to seize Liu Wuxie\'s resources for themselves.
But as newcomers to the sect, they didn\'t dare take it too far. They planned to wait a few days before going after Liu Wuxie. So, when they saw Liu Wuxie here, they quickly stepped out, wanting to let Liu Wuxie hand over his spot to the Book Collection Hall.
"What\'s going on? He really has a spot in the Book Collection Hall?" Things started to get messier because Lin Mingxu implied that Liu Wuxie had the qualifications to enter the Book Collection Hall.
This naturally made Deacon Kou frown.
"Do you all want a spot in the Book Collection Hall?" Liu Wuxie said with a mysterious and mocking smile.
"You think everything will be fine after becoming a priority disciple? Let me tell you that you won\'t be able to enjoy any benefits without the strength to back it up." Gongsun Zhen sneered, telling everyone that Liu Wuxie was a priority disciple.
The situation was a complete mess. Zhu Sheng stood still at a loss, and Deacon Kou\'s facial expression turned ugly. They were making trouble for a priority disciple who had received these privileges from the sect; they were expected to support him unconditionally.
"My medal is right here. Come and seize it from me if you two have the guts!" Liu Wuxie turned to look at the medal on the table.
Lin Mingxu and Gongsun Zhen exchanged a gaze with a hint of surprise. They strode towards the table, ignoring the surrounding gazes.
However, as they approached the table, Liu Wuxie\'s voice echoed, "Zhu Sheng, as a Law Enforcement Hall\'s disciple, are you turning a blind eye to someone trying to snatch my medal? Don\'t forget that I\'m a priority disciple."
Liu Wuxie smiled because Zhu Sheng would violate the rules as a Law Enforcement Hall disciple if he did nothing, placing the latter in a tough position.
