Chapter 4

"I didn't want to make things difficult for you, but you just had to provoke me. Don't blame me for being merciless."

Gu Chen's gaze turned cold as he punched at Xu Hai.

Xu Hai was startled by Gu Chen's imposing manner and hurriedly rolled to the side. Gu Chen's punch landed on the square table behind him.

Bang!

The incomparably heavy square table was actually smashed by a single punch. Smoke and dust filled the air. Xu Hai drew in a breath of cold air.

"This punch has at least a thousand jin of strength. Gu Chen, have you reached the fourth level of the Mortal Body Realm?" he cried out involuntarily.

The first four levels of the Mortal Body Realm were the process of nourishing Qi, strengthening blood, and opening up meridians. There was not much difference between each level, and it was even hard to tell.

Only when one reached the Meridian Opening level would there be a huge improvement in physical strength. One punch would have about a thousand jin of strength.

After that, with every increase in level, the strength would increase by about a thousand jin.

From the looks of it, Gu Chen had clearly advanced to the Meridian Opening Realm. Even if another twenty odd job disciples came, they would not be a match for him!

"You guessed it!"

Gu Chen took a few steps forward and kicked Xu Hai's leg bone, causing him to scream in pain as his bones cracked continuously.

No one could stop him from leaving anymore. Gu Chen left with large strides amidst the wails of the crowd, without any reluctance to leave!

He would never return to the Odd Job Courtyard!

...

On the mountain path of the Outer Hall, a handsome youth was in high spirits, walking as if he was flying.

It was Gu Chen.

The Wuchen Sect occupied two valleys and sixteen peaks, bordering the Forbidden Forest Sea. It was one of the thirteen sects of the Eastern Barren Feng Lin Prefecture.

The Outer Hall was far away from the core of the sect and formed its own peak. Outer disciples came and went all day long.

Gu Chen went up the mountain and immediately attracted the attention of many disciples.

"Eh? Isn't that Senior Sister Ye's fiance? What is he doing in the Outer Hall? Has he been promoted to the Outer Hall? "

"Pfft. How is that possible? That guy couldn't even cultivate elemental energy for two whole years. He can only be a job disciple for the rest of his life. "

"There's something you guys don't know, right? I heard that Senior Sister Ye broke off the engagement yesterday. From now on, I'm afraid he won't be able to raise his head in the sect. "

Because of Ye Qingshuang, Gu Chen's reputation in the sect was not small. Everyone was talking about him in private, looking at him with pity, sympathy, or gloating eyes.

Gu Chen turned a blind eye to it. In these past two years, his mind had long since been tempered to far surpass his peers. He quickly walked into the hall and found the Outer Court Deacon.

"Hmm? Your cultivation has reached the fourth level of the Fleshly Body Realm? "

The deacon was a middle-aged man. When he heard the reason for Gu Chen's visit, he asked doubtfully.

Gu Chen knew that it was pointless to say anything more. He glanced at the gravity scale used to measure cultivation and kicked his leg in the air.

Bang!

The weight on the scale quickly shot up high. This kick was at least one thousand and five hundred kilograms, causing the deacon to slightly raise his eyebrows.

"Not bad, congratulations on entering the outer sect."

The warden nodded and immediately registered Gu Chen and told him what to take note of.

"From today onwards, you will leave the Odd Job Courtyard and live in the tenth peak of the outer sect. You can get clothes and keys from the room next door.

"As an outer sect disciple, you can come to the Outer Court Hall on the first of every month to get a bottle of Blood Qi Pills. At the same time, you can also go to the Cultivation Technique Pavilion and choose two mortal-level cultivation techniques or martial techniques.

"In addition, you must remember that although outer sect disciples do not need to do odd jobs, they still have a fixed monthly quota. This is something that must be completed.

"Cultivate well and strive to reach the seventh level of the Fleshly Body Realm as soon as possible. That way, you can enter the inner sect. Inner sect disciples are the mainstay of our Wuchen Sect. At that time, not only will there be no quota, but you will also receive far more cultivation resources than the outer sect and live in the inner sect. "

The warden encouraged him. Gu Chen listened attentively and then entered the room next door to collect his belongings.

When he received the key to his new residence, Gu Chen was overjoyed. In the future, he would finally not have to live with a group of people.

The treatment of outer sect disciples was more than ten times better than the odd job workers!

Gu Chen walked out of the hall and was about to go to the tenth peak when he saw a familiar face.

"Hey, isn't this Gu Chen?"

The newcomer was a young man with bull eyes and a dark face. He had a strong body and glanced at the clothes in Gu Chen's hands.

"Ah, ah, ah, it's been two years. Young Master Gu of Tian Nan City has finally broken through and entered the outer sect! Congratulations, you're truly a genius! "

His voice was not low and immediately attracted the attention of many disciples.

"Hong Kuan, long time no see. You are still the same."

Gu Chen's face immediately darkened.

This strong young man had entered the Wuchen Sect in the same batch as him. It was said that his family was also a large family in the city they were in.

When Hong Kuan first entered the sect, he fell in love with the beautiful Ye Qingshuang. However, Ye Qingshuang was his fiancée, so from then on, he had been hostile towards him and always competed with him in all aspects.

His talent was far from Ye Qingshuang's, but it was not too bad. He entered the outer sect a year ago and now his cultivation was already in the fifth tier of the physical body.

Gu Chen used to be an odd job worker and had been running around to make a living. The two of them had not seen each other for a while. He did not expect his hostility to be so deep when they met.

"Gu Chen, I heard that your engagement was broken off by Qingshuang yesterday. How pitiful. Although I knew that this day would come, I still feel that you are quite pitiful. "

"Fortunately, there is always a way out. You finally got lucky and entered the outer sect. Otherwise, I was afraid that one day you would take things too hard and commit suicide."

Hong Kuan shook his head repeatedly, with the attitude of a winner.

Gu Chen found it funny, and the corner of his mouth showed disdain.

"Hong Kuan, people who don't know you will think that Ye Qingshuang left me and followed you. Unfortunately, she doesn't like you at all. You two are from two different worlds. "

When Hong Kuan heard this, his face immediately froze, and his eyes turned cold.

Gu Chen's words touched his sore spot.

Back then, he had once pursued Ye Qingshuang, even after knowing that Gu Chen was her fiancé.

At that time, he showed great confidence and even told Ye Qingshuang that he would protect her after entering the sect.

However, Ye Qingshuang was later identified as a Martial Sage Body in the assessment, and as soon as she entered the sect, she had a status that was worlds apart from his.

After that, her cultivation had advanced by leaps and bounds, and now she was almost the core disciple of the entire Wuchen Sect. She was like a star in the sky, not something that he could touch at all.

His pursuit of her back then was a joke now. Hong Kuan wanted to mock Gu Chen, the weakling, but he did not expect to be slapped in the face instead. He was extremely angry.

"She and I are from two different worlds. Aren't you the same? What right do trash like you have to talk about others? "

"You're wrong. I am fundamentally different from you." Gu Chen sneered. The conversation between the two attracted the attention of a large number of disciples.

"What's the difference?" Hong Kuan asked disdainfully.

"She did not break off my engagement. I took the initiative to divorce her. I dumped her, and you were dumped by her. How can it be the same? "

When Gu Chen finished speaking, Hong Kuan's face immediately turned red.
