Primordial Cultivator

Chapter 234 - Shocking News



"Why is Elder Xia so friendly with an outer disciple?" One of the disciples asked.

"Who knows but it\'s better to just stay in line. I don\'t wish to offend some strong background disciple for no reason."

"Agreed, better mind my own business. You can go and ask them if you don\'t value your life."

The disciples minded their own business and waited in line diligently, allowing Yang Wei to walk past them.

As Yang Wei got a good look of the elder, he held a pondering expression since he never asked for his name.

"Uhh-, you are Elder…"

"Elder Xia, you can just address me as Xia Feng if you want." Elder Xia replied.

Yang Wei nodded his head.

He then cupped his fist, "This disciple greets Elder Xia."

Although he was rude in their first meeting, that doesn\'t mean he can be disrespectful toward him now.

"Please forgive this disciple\'s offense in the past as Elder Jing was in a hurry for ingredients." Yang Wei apologized for his previous behavior.

However, Elder Xia shook his head as he chuckled softly. "You can rest assured that I didn\'t keep that incident in mind. Elder Jing\'s behavior is well-known among us elders and we should assist her."

Sometime later, Yang Wei asked, "Elder Xia, weren\'t you working in the Treasure Hall? How come you are in the Mission Hall now?"

Elder Xia laughed as he explained his presence here. "Every month, there will be a shift in management. Last month, I was assigned to work in the Treasure Hall and now I was reassigned here."

"I see…"

Sometime later, Elder Xia asked, "So Yang Wei, why are you in the Mission Hall again? I doubt Elder Jing would fire you now considering the timespan."

"Elder Xia, I\'m here to retrieve my inner disciple uniform and contribution points." Yang Wei replied as he handed him the inner disciple token.

Elder Xia held a gawking expression at Yang Wei, almost like he had just seen a freak in his life.

\'B-Barely a month and his cultivation base soared at an astounding rate. Now, he has already passed the inner disciple examination.\' Elder Xia exclaimed inwardly as he stared at Yang Wei.

"Please wait a minute, disciple Yang Wei." Elder Xia said with a stiff smile. "I shall head inside to retrieve your things personally."

After Elder Xia went inside the room to retrieve Yang Wei\'s reward, the other disciples in the Mission Hall started guessing Yang Wei\'s identity.

Although the name Yang Wei was infamous in the sect, not many people had actually seen his true face.

"Hey, are you the Yang Wei that had caused a storm in the outer courtyard?" One of the disciples there walked forward and asked him.

Yang Wei turned around and saw him as a youthful man.

"Why do you ask?" Yang Wei questioned.

"I\'m Xiong Hu and I\'m asking because I want to make sure you are the real Yang Wei." Xiong Hu cupped his fist as he asked again.

Yang Wei wanted to ignore him but considering how his face would come to be known when the sect tournament begins, he found it pointless to hide the truth.

"That\'s right, I\'m Yang Wei." He then replied as he turned around to wait for Elder Xia\'s return.

Meanwhile, Xiong Hu\'s expression turned wicked as he stared at Yang Wei.

\'Finally, I can test my strength with a worthy opponent.\' Xiong Hu exclaimed inwardly as he once again tried to strike a conversation with Yang Wei.

"Yang Wei, have you heard of the dueling in our sect?" Xiong Hu enquired.

Yang Wei ignored him as he didn\'t wish to incur unnecessary troubles in the sect.

Xiong Hu twitched his brows as he continued to be determined in fighting Yang Wei.

"Yang Wei, I have around 100 spirit stones in my pocket right now so are you willing to place a bet with me." Xiong Hu said as he showed a bag of spirit stones.

"These are all high-quality spirit stones and not the average kind you\'ve seen." He added.

The disciples went into an uproar when they saw Xiong Hu was trying to instigate a duel with Yang Wei.

"Holy, Yang Wei is really in a different league than us. He can actually make Xiong Hu instigate a duel."

"What do you know, amateur? Xiong Hu is in the ranking of number 9 and he has been wanting to fight the other 8 disciples a long time ago but he could never find them."

As soon as a disciple started talking about Xiong Hu offering 100 high-quality spirit stones in a duel against Yang Wei, it spread like wildfire.

This shocking news had sent a new sensation in the inner courtyard as people started making their own private bets.

"I bet Yang Wei will win against Xiong Hu. Here\'s my entire asset, 30 spirit stones."

"Tch, you ignorant fool is going to lose those 30 spirit stones. Yang Wei is merely full of luck and relies on his handsome face to seduce the elders. Xiong Hu is different and relies on his strength. I bet 50 spirit stones for Xiong Hu\'s victory."

"Hmph, whatever you say."

As the inner disciples and outer disciples ran frantically around the entire sect, placing their bet, Yang Wei remained oblivious to the event he made.

"So what about it Yang Wei, are you going to take up my offer?" Xiong Hu asked, using the crowd as pressure.

If Yang Wei refused his offer to fight, it means that all the rumors were false and that Yang Wei was unworthy of his current status.

Yang Wei narrowed his gaze at Xiong Hu as he wondered if he offended him somewhere.

\'Whatever, the reason doesn\'t matter. Since you wished to fight me then I shall let others know my prowess.\' Yang Wei\'s expression turned solemn as he nodded his head.

"A fight it is."
