Chapter 187: Why Is Everything in the Library Pavilion Trash?
As the grand doors swung open, an ancient and desolate aura rushed forth, prompting Wu Hao and the others to immediately compose themselves, not daring to let their minds wander.
Leading the way, Hu Gan took a deep breath and stepped into the Library Pavilion first. Wu Hao and the nameless extra hesitated briefly before following suit.
"Let's go too, Wu Gan brother."
Xun'er smiled as she held Wu Tian's hand, glancing at the three figures disappearing into the dark passage.
"Mm."
Wu Tian cast a sidelong glance at the two gray robed elders still watching him. Without hesitation, he led Xun'er into the Library Pavilion.
As soon as they entered, the massive doors groaned shut behind them, sealing them inside.
The two elders exchanged glances before one of them murmured,
"We cannot see through his strength, but the fire attribute Dou Qi emanating from his body is exceptionally pure. Perhaps he possesses a Heavenly Flame."
"Hmm… whatever. Let him do as he pleases."
"As long as Jia Nan Academy isn't facing destruction, none of it concerns us."
Their quiet conversation echoed softly through the valley.
Inside, Wu Tian merely scoffed.
With my system, how could those two old fossils possibly see through me?
Even if they sensed his Heavenly Flame, so what?
Yes, Heavenly Flame wielders were rare, but that didn't mean they didn't exist.
Every region had its own prodigies.
Otherwise, why would the Inner Academy of Jia Nan Academy be filled with monsters?
Especially that one ranked first.
An absolute freak of nature.
As Wu Tian and the others advanced, a bright light suddenly flooded their vision, making them instinctively turn away for a moment.
When their eyes adjusted, they found themselves in an immense chamber.
Around the walls, about ten energy barriers pulsated with light, illuminating the room as if it were daytime.
Hearing footsteps behind them, Hu Jia and the other two turned around.
Hu Jia stepped forward, her voice carrying a teasing lilt.
"Xun'er, once we enter the Inner Academy, we need to stick together."
"I've never been there before, but my grandfather says that to get the best training resources, you have to prove your strength."
"If we go in alone, we newcomers will definitely be bullied. And since we're girls, it'd be bad if we got pushed around."
Hu Jia's words made the group fall into thought, but Xun'er simply smiled gently.
"I have Wu Gan brother to protect me. No one will bully me."
"Haha, that's true. The Enforcer Squad has also mentioned that if the new recruits don't stick together, they'll have a hard time."
Wu Hao, his skin thick as iron, spoke calmly.
The last of the five still an unnamed extra looked visibly awkward.
His strength was clearly the weakest of the group.
Forcing a smile, he added,
"I heard from a senior that even after entering the Inner Academy, there's still another competition. If newcomers don't form alliances, they might even get kicked out."
"Hmm."
Everyone fell into contemplation as they examined the vast chamber.
This was the end of the Library Pavilion… but why was there nothing here?
"Don't bother looking. There's nowhere else to go. Just these weird energy barriers. Are we supposed to step inside?"
Hu Jia pouted her red lips in frustration.
As confusion spread among the group, a faint whirring sound suddenly filled the air.
The noise was subtle, but for Wu Tian and the others, it was like a low rumble of thunder.
Tracking the sound, they turned toward an energy barrier on the left side of the room.
"Wu Gan brother… something inside that energy barrier… it looks like it's about to shoot out."
Xun'er tightened her grip on Wu Tian's arm, her face tinged with pink.
"Shoot out? Then this must be how we obtain Dou Techniques or Qi Methods!"
Wu Tian paused before realization struck.
So that's the gimmick of this place?
"Dou Techniques? Qi Methods?"
Just as they spoke, a purple light streaked out from the energy barrier, turning into a glowing scroll that shot straight toward Xun'er.
Wu Tian's brows furrowed. He scoffed,
"A mere high rank Xuan class technique dares to approach my Xun'er? Get lost!"
Without hesitation, he casually swatted it back into the energy barrier.
His brutal rejection left the others speechless.
High rank Xuan class techniques are trash?
For them, such techniques were extremely valuable!
Even outside Jia Nan Academy, they were rare treasures worth fighting over.
But Wu Tian…
He called it trash.
For the first time, everyone looked at him with fresh eyes.
Just who the hell is this guy?!
If this was trash to him, then what wasn't?
Di class techniques?
Suddenly, the nameless extra burst out laughing.
In his hands, a silver light gleamed.
"Haha! A Di class technique!"
Everyone turned to see a scroll pulsing with energy in his grasp.
However, just as he was celebrating
The technique's glow flared and broke free from his grip, rocketing straight toward Wu Tian.
Wu Tian's face twitched.
Without missing a beat, he slapped it away.
"A low rank Di class technique still dares come near me? Scram!"
The group: …
Even Xun'er was shocked.
Wu Gan brother even called Di class techniques trash?
Even in their ancient Gu Clan, Di class techniques were rare!
But Wu Gan brother…
He refused them without hesitation.
He was so amazing!
Meanwhile, Wu Tian smirked.
Because just now
The system had copied both techniques.
One was Purple Thunder Art (high rank Xuan class).
The other was Ninefold Phoenix Fire Art (low rank Di class).
Just as he was feeling smug, a red light shot toward him.
His smile vanished.
Reaching out, he grabbed it.
It was… a damn fruit.
Frowning, he tossed it aside.
"Trash."
"Pfft !"
The others nearly choked.
Does he even know what he just threw away?!
That was Heavenly Jade Fruit!
A rare alchemical ingredient that, when refined, could boost a Dou King's strength.
A priceless treasure!
Yet Wu Tian?
He called it trash and tossed it aside like a rotten apple.
What would it take for him to think something was valuable?!
But Wu Tian truly didn't care.
With his Dou Zong level soul strength, his physical cultivation was advancing at insane speeds.
Just in the past few days, he had already reached eight star Dou Ling.
Even in the Inner Academy, he'd be among the strongest.
The kind of people who ate medicinal pills like candy.
Compared to that, a measly Heavenly Jade Fruit was utterly beneath him.
And so
The rest of the group simply stood there, watching as the Library Pavilion seemed to rage against Wu Tian.
Treasure after treasure shot toward him…
And he slapped away every single one.
All while holding Xun'er in one arm.
"Di class Qi Method? Trash."
"Xuan class technique? Trash."
"Seven tier pill? Trash."
"Why is everything in this Library Pavilion trash?! Is there nothing good here?!"
The group: …
