Chapter 310 - Tough Position

There was a long queue, and no one lingered when they passed by the pillar. They would present their points directly and enter the Book Collection Hall.

However, when it was Liu Wuxie's turn, the queue suddenly stopped, drawing disgruntled voices from behind.

"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.

"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.
