Chapter 112: 112: Prime Disciple

Alex startled at the sudden shout. He turned back to look at the man and asked, "What do you want?"

"I told you I wanted the pill and yet you deny it to me. If I say I want the pill, then I will get the pill." The arrogant man started spouting nonsense from what Alex could hear.

"Hey brother, why are you messing with brother Huo, he is the 7th elder's disciple? Just sell the pill if you don't want to be constantly challenged by everyone, every day."

"Yeah, if you don't want trouble, it's better to just sell the pill to him. He is 18th in ranking in the core disciples after all. So there is glory in selling the pills to him."

The disciples behind the young man started to fawn over the young man's ranking and privilege in the sect, while seemingly trying to pressure Alex into giving up the pill.

The young man had a smug smile on his face after hearing his lackeys announce his glorious achievements.

'Master did talk about these sorts of people. But it's still surprising I get to meet one so soon. I don't remember people in the Hong Wu sect being like this. Although, I didn't really socialize there, so maybe there are.' He thought. One thing the disciples behind the young man had said had caught his attention.

"You are a core disciple?" he asked the young man directly.

The man thought Alex had gotten scared from hearing about his achievements and simply nodded.

Alex turned to the elder and asked, "Elder, if the orange lining on his cloth means that he is a core disciple, then what does a red lining mean? Are they not a core disciple, but something else?" he asked. He wanted to learn what Luo Mei's position was in the sect.

"Ah… you must be talking about disciple Luo Mei. She is the direct disciple of the sect leader and first in ranking amongst the core disciples. She is our Prime Disciple, and thus gets to wear red linings in her robes." The elder said with a face of fondness.

"Oh, I see." Alex then asked, "So, about the pill, elder. how much will you buy it for?" He asked.

The core disciple called Huo started getting mad. He stepped forward about to shout once more when the elder suddenly looked at him. "If you are here to disturb the sect's business, then you will have to suffer the consequences, disciple Huo Tu."

Huo Tu immediately got scared and bowed to the elder a little before leaving the shop. Alex was surprised that even such a haughty disciple would get scared of the elder.

'He must've thought he could make me give the pill to him, with just the fear of his name alone. He will come for revenge later, that's for sure.'

Alex however wasn't worried about that. Disciples in the sect weren't allowed to fight. If they wanted to, they would have to set up a fight in the fighting hall. The most important part of this situation was still the badges everyone got.

Only a disciple with the lower badge can request a fight with the other disciple. So, no matter how much the Huo Tu guys wanted to kill him, as long as he was in the sect, that would be impossible.

He turned his focus back to the elder who was looking at the pill and contemplating. After a while, he said, "I can give you 24 spirit stones for this pill. I don't know where you came to find this pill, but it's really good and deserves this amount."

Alex thought for a second. While the common healing pill wasn't the best, it was at 33% harmony. Since it wasn't an auction, he thought the specific price was okay.

"Yes, elder. I would like to sell it for that amount." Alex said. The elder kept the pill and passed along 24 spirit stones to Alex.

Alex left the market and started returning back to his house when suddenly he noticed something. He sent out his spiritual sense and found out that 2 of the lackeys that followed the core disciple named Huo Tu were currently tailing him.

'What are they trying to do?' he wondered. They couldn't attack him in the open or anything. There were a ton of disciples on the path. Even If they wanted to, they were way too weak to be a challenge for him.

So he ignored them and minded his own business as he returned back to his home. Just as he was about to open the door, however, the two lackeys ran away.

"Hmm…" he was confused for a second, but immediately realized what happened afterward. "They must've wanted my badge number, haha. I would've given it to them had they just asked." Alex chuckled a bit and returned back to his room.

Now that he had nothing to do, he logged out for the day. It was Tuesday, so he had to go to his classes for the day. Around half-past 3 after he was done with his afternoon lunch and after having called his parents back home, he returned back to the game.

He felt his Qi and realized it was back to full. 'So, I only need about 8 hours to get my Qi fully back huh. Or maybe even less.' He thought.

"Might as well breakthrough right now." He clicked the [Breakthrough] button and instantly reached Bone Tempering 6th realm.

Once done, he looked up, straight ahead of him at the wooden board with all the rankings on it, and thought, "If Master said I have to get to 194 by the end of today, I should fight the others in between to get the experience, right?"

He started looking through the different names. Thankfully, the names also had simple info next to their names that said whether someone is in their house, just within the sect, or out of sect.

Out of them, Alex chose the ones that had 'Their house' as their location. In the end, he gathered a few names he would fight today.

"Alright, let's go register some fights."
