Chapter 154: Chapter 154: Where to Place

"Is there a problem?"

Seeing three people blocking his way, Mo Wangchen slightly frowned and asked.

"Heh heh, I heard some brat I don’t know where from dares to challenge Senior Sister Jun on the Life and Death Platform. Out of curiosity, I came to have a look. Now that I see him, he doesn’t seem to be much after all. Such weak cultivation is truly pitiful..."

The man in the lead wore luxurious clothing and looked at Mo Wangchen with disdain.

"Hey? Isn’t that Lin Wei?"

"Indeed it is him. What, did someone offend him?"

"Isn’t that Mo Wangchen standing opposite him?"

"Is that the Mo Wangchen who’s preparing to go onto the Life and Death Platform with Jun Muqing? Interesting, let’s go have a look!"

Around them, many people also noticed that the atmosphere here was somewhat different and gathered around.

"If there’s nothing important, please step aside and don’t block the way."

Mo Wangchen didn’t want to cause trouble and didn’t care to deal with the other party. Having said this, he took a step forward, intending to walk past Lin Wei.

"What’s the matter?"

Lin Wei, however, took a step and blocked Mo Wangchen’s path again. "You’ve just joined the Inner Court, and this is how cold you are when you meet a Senior Brother?"

"Within three breaths, if you don’t get lost, you will bear the consequences."

Mo Wangchen looked at Lin Wei, his eyes narrowing slightly as he spoke softly.

"Kid! You really are arrogant. No one in this Inner Court has ever dared to tell me to get lost!" Lin Wei’s eyes narrowed and his face immediately darkened as he sneered, "With your weak strength, you dare to face Senior Sister Jun on the Life and Death Platform. You truly have a death wish!"

With that, he snorted coldly, his palm already gathering a tremendous momentum. Without another word, he fiercely struck towards Mo Wangchen’s chest.

Boom!

Inside Mo Wangchen, a burst of aura suddenly exploded, a wave of force swept from beneath his feet, and in a flash of lightning, his palm was covered with a layer of overwhelming Spiritual Power, pressing towards Lin Wei’s palm.

Bang!

A muffled explosion sounded. During the impact, Lin Wei felt his arm tremble slightly, and the next moment, a numbing sensation spread throughout his body.

"Ah!"

He cried out in pain, his body suddenly flying backward, falling to the ground, his eyes full of disbelief as he looked at Mo Wangchen.

"This is the first time. If there’s a next time, I won’t mind destroying your hand!" Mo Wangchen looked at him coldly.

He didn’t seek trouble, but he wasn’t afraid of it either. If someone bullied him, he had to strike back hard, or else in the future within the Inner Court, others would think he was an easy target.

"You!" Lin Wei climbed up from the ground, his face pale, his cheeks covered in cold sweat, a piercing pain coming from his arm, knowing that in the clash of palms, his arm had been dislocated.

How was that possible?

No matter how one looked at it, Mo Wangchen appeared to only be at the first level of the Spirit Transformation Realm, while he, Lin Wei, was a master at the third level of the Spirit Transformation Realm. Yet in the clash, he was so easily defeated!

"Lin Wei, relying on the fact that his grandfather is an Inner Court Elder, has always been arrogant within the Academy, and no one dares to provoke him. Now though, he’s hit a steel wall!"

"Ha ha! Mo Wangchen might have just entered the Inner Court, but his strength is no joke. It’s said that Zhong Bin died by his hand, and at the Elder Hall, he even managed to withstand Jun Muqing’s Nine Curves Netherworld Palm!"

Around them, many disciples who had conflicts with Lin Wei before felt a secret thrill seeing him at a disadvantage against Mo Wangchen.

"Lin Wei’s grandfather is Elder Lin Qi, right? He has held the position of Elder in the Inner Court for many years, respected and revered, and he’s extremely fond of Lin Wei. Mo Wangchen hurting Lin Wei might bring some trouble..."

"As immortals clash, we should just enjoy the spectacle. Although Elder Lin Qi has influence, I’ve heard that Mo Wangchen isn’t one to be trifled with either. Offspring from great families like Wan Xingsheng and Liang Yuqiu, they all stand on his side."

Amidst the surrounding discussions, Mo Wangchen slightly furrowed his brows, not expecting that this Lin Wei also had a grandfather who was an elder.

However, that was not much of a concern; after all, Jun Muqing was the Academy director’s disciple, and if Mo Wangchen wasn’t afraid of her, why would he fear a mere Inner Court elder?

If the other party didn’t bother him, that was fine; but if they dared to provoke him, there would come a time they would regret it!

"Scram!"

Thinking such thoughts, Mo Wangchen’s eyes shifted slightly, coldly landing on the figure of Lin Wei.

"I’ll remember this!" Lin Wei’s face was ashen as he clenched his teeth, leaving a harsh warning before skulking away.

It wasn’t until Lin Wei and his group left that Mo Wangchen headed toward the Artifact Refining Tower.

Very soon, he went directly into the Artifact Refining Tower to cultivate. Days before, he had sensed he was on the verge of a breakthrough; now, inside the tower, Mo Wangchen immediately used a large quantity of Qi Gathering Pills for his cultivation.

...

Time seemed to blur, and when Mo Wangchen emerged from the Artifact Refining Tower, it was already the evening. By now, his cultivation had made a breakthrough, officially stepping into the second level of the Spirit Transformation Realm.

"Hm? Why are there so many people?"

As he came out of the Artifact Refining Tower, Mo Wangchen looked around and noticed that the crowd gathered in the plaza was much larger than usual.

"Mo Wangchen has come out!"

While he was puzzled, a voice resounded from among the crowd.

He was stunned for a moment. Could it be that this matter was related to him?

"Are you Mo Wangchen?"

As he entertained his doubts, a nearby elder approached him, and beside the elder followed a young man, unmistakably the same Lin Wei whom he had injured before.

Immediately, Mo Wangchen realized, feeling that Lin Wei had gone back to bring his grandfather to trouble him.

"I greet Elder Lin Qi."

Elder Lin Qi was an Inner Court Deacon Elder, and normally disciples would greet him respectfully; however, at this moment, Mo Wangchen simply bowed slightly, neither overbearing nor servile.

"Hmph!"

Elder Lin Qi snorted coldly, his gaze piercing Mo Wangchen, a flash of chill in his eyes, "I have heard that even before you entered the Inner Court, you killed two disciples of the Academy, and now you haven’t changed your ways, injuring Lin Wei with your actions. Do you realize your crime, Mo Wangchen?!"

"Lin Wei attacked first, and when his strength proved insufficient, I injured him in defense. How am I to blame?"

Mo Wangchen looked at Lin Qi, "If Elder Lin Qi has come for this matter, then please go back. Even if this is brought to the Great Elder, I stand justified."

"How dare you!"

Hearing Mo Wangchen’s words, Lin Qi’s face immediately darkened, "What is this attitude?!"

"Attitude?"

Mo Wangchen slightly lifted his gaze, looking indifferently forward, "Aren’t you clear about what kind of person your grandson is?"

"Not bringing him back for discipline is one thing, but to have the gall to come here to question me, Elder Lin Qi, as an Inner Court Deacon Elder, are you truly so biased and bent on private vengeance, neglecting the law?"

"Where do you place the Academy’s director and the Academy’s regulations?!"

Mo Wangchen’s words were clear and loud, his voice resonating across the entire field!
