Chapter 306 - Get Lost

Before everyone recovered from their shock, an afterimage appeared before Hou Li.

After receiving a slap from Liu Wuxie, Hou Li flew out like a loose kite. He drew a beautiful trajectory across the sky and fell into the flowerbed, smashing a few rocks.

When Hou Li got back to his feet, his face was covered in bruises, and his nose was swollen. Murderous intent swept out from him as he charged at Liu Wuxie.

This left Mei Zizheng stumped, unable to comprehend what had just happened. He couldn’t believe someone in the fifth level of the True Core Realm was sent flying with a slap.

Weng Li felt his mind buzzing. It was too late for him to stop because Liu Wuxie’s speed was too fast.

Hou Li would have humiliated Liu Wuxie even if he hadn’t retaliated. Liu Wuxie had already seen through everything, so he acted first.

Mei Zizheng’s heart nearly jumped out of his chest, and he took a big step back.

“How dare you?!” The other man who came with Hou Li was Sha Qizhi, who was also in the fifth level of the True Core Realm.

Everyone believed that Liu Wuxie managed to send Hou Li flying, relying on a sneak attack. They were confident in crushing Liu Wuxie in one strike if they clashed head-on.

“I advise you to think twice before acting!” Liu Wuxie gazed at Sha Qizhi like a vicious viper. He stopped in his tracks, his right hand stopping in mid-air. He was placed in a dilemma, not knowing whether to strike.

“I’ll kill you!” Hou Li cleaved his weapon down at Liu Wuxie.

A fifth-level True Core Realm expert was no different from someone in the Xiantian Realm in the mundane world. In the cultivation world, one would only possess some authority of speech after reaching the Heavenly Dipper Realm.

In the Heavenly Treasure Pavilion, disciples were divided into four categories. Those in the True Core Realm were outer disciples, and one could only become an inner disciple after reaching the Heavenly Dipper Realm.

Above that were the core disciples, who were required to reach the Heavenly Phase Realm. The number of core disciples in the Heavenly Treasure Pavilion was only half that of the inner disciples.

As for true disciples, each of them would be treated as treasures to nurture in every sect, requiring disciples to reach the Astral River Realm. The Heavenly Treasure Pavilion didn’t have many true disciples.

Next would be those in the Nascent Transformation Realm, most of whom held the position of an elder in a sect.

Only one in a thousand could reach the Heavenly Dipper Realm, and those who could reach the Heavenly Phase Realm were one in ten thousand.

As mentioned, few disciples reached the Astral River Realm in the sect. Thus, one could imagine how tough cultivating was as one’s cultivation increased.

Hou Li and Sha Qizhi were garbage in the Heavenly Treasure Pavilion, so Liu Wuxie dared to retaliate fearlessly.

Facing Hou Li’s attack, Liu Wuxie remained indifferent and stood quietly in place, allowing Hou Li to approach him. As the distance between them closed rapidly, Hou Li came within a meter of Liu Wuxie.

Right then, Liu Wuxie kicked with his right leg.

“Just you wait! This spiritual treasure was entrusted to me by Senior Brother Zhang Yuanxun. Since you dare to take something belonging to him, just wait for him to come after you! I advise you to hand it over now obediently!” Mei Zizheng gritted his teeth in hatred, but he could do nothing.

If he continued to stay there, he would only be further humiliated by Liu Wuxie.

Liu Wuxie was tired of empty threats. He knew that Mei Zizheng would slander him even if he returned the spiritual treasure and use Zhang Yuanxun to kill him.

Filled with boundless resentment and humiliation, Mei Zizheng left with Zhai Gaofang. They were merely low-ranking disciples in the sect; no one would pay attention to them. Not to mention, they did’t have many resources to hire experts to help them. Thus, they could only wait for Zhang Yuanxun to return before seeking vengeance against Liu Wuxie.

Everything became peaceful once more, and Mei Zizheng didn’t return anymore this time. The sky in the Heavenly Treasure Pavilion was brightly lit as daylight, illuminated by countless stars. But the field looked somewhat lonely in contrast.

The night resembled the water as Liu Wuxie lost himself in thought, looking at the sky.

“Brother Liu, what happened today might bring trouble in the future.” Hou Li came over with concern on his face.

“I never expected it to be peaceful after entering the cultivation world.” Liu Wuxie had learned many things from Mu Yueying and was already mentally prepared.

The night passed quickly, and everyone was excited the following day. This was because they would finally become disciples of the Heavenly Treasure Pavilion that day.

When Fan Lin returned at midday, he apologized, “I’m sorry for the wait. The deacon responsible for enrollment had some unexpected matters to attend to yesterday. I have already reported all your names, and you will all enter the Enrollment Hall with the other new disciples to receive your identity medals. Someone will also arrange your accommodations after that.”

He was expected to come last night, but other matters kept him busy. Unaware of Liu Wuxie's conflict with Mei Zizheng, he didn't inquire, and Liu Wuxie had no intention of telling him either.

Fan Lin's task was complete, and the enrollment deacon would take over next. Roughly two hours later, a few hundred people arrived, each radiating a powerful aura.

“Everyone, calm down. After today, you will all be disciples of my Heavenly Treasure Pavilion, and you are expected to abide by the rules. The enrollment deacon will soon arrive to pick everyone up, so behave yourself!”

The field suddenly became bustling with so many people. However, some held hostile gazes when they looked in Liu Wuxie’s direction.

“I wonder how many people will enter the Heavenly Trigram Peak this year.” The crowd began to discuss, and these people were more familiar with the Heavenly Treasure Pavilion than Liu Wuxie’s group.

Fan Lin explained the Heavenly Treasure Pavilion’s information along the way. The Heavenly Treasure Pavilion was divided into six regions: the Heavenly Trigram Peak, Earth Force Peak, Profound Inscription Peak, Terrain Summit Peak, Mortal Plume Peak, and Treasure Pill Peak.

The Heavenly Trigram Peak was the strongest, followed by the Treasure Pill Peak. The following rankings were the Earth Force Peak, Profound Inscription Peak, Terrain Summit Peak, and Mortal Plume Peak.

The deacons from the six peaks would come to pick disciples to join them. Those who could enter the Heavenly Trigram Peak were absolute elites, and the Treasure Pill Peak wasn’t bad either, but their disciples were required to possess alchemy talents.

“I heard the resources in the Heavenly Trigram Peak are several times higher than those in the other peaks, but they also have a harsh requirement.” The discussion was loud, but Yang Songyue and others had to get close to obtain some helpful information.

“I hope my luck will be good this year to be selected by the Heavenly Trigram Peak.” A sigh could be heard because it was everyone’s dream to enter the Heavenly Trigram Peak.

“I would be satisfied with the Earth Force Peak. The resources might not be comparable to the Heavenly Trigram Peak, but it’s comfortable compared to the other peaks.” Various discussions were held in the field, but Liu Wuxie remained indifferent and showed no interest.
