ALMOST CAUGHT

Peng Chen stood with his arms crossed as he listened to Liuxian who was talking fast and trying to demonstrate what he was saying at the same time. It wasn't as if he didn't understand what Liuxian was saying however, it was fun to see Liuxian embarrass himself.

“Do you understand?” Liuxian asked as he looked at Peng Chen.

“So you want me to help you fool your entire class? Why? What's in it for me?" Peng Chen asked looking at Liuxian coldly.

“You. Fine. I'll fufill four wishes of yours. Is that okay? Now, quickly help me.” Liuxian said anxiously.

He still had 3 hours left before the upgrade but yet he couldn't tell Peng Chen. Plus he didn't know what could really happen after the upgrade.

“Besides, you and I are totally different. You are a protector. I am a marksman. My powers could backlash on you. What will you do then?" Peng Chen asked looking at Liuxian.

Realizing it was true, Liuxian sighed about to leave when Peng Chen suddenly dragged him back hitting him hard at his back. Suddenly, Liuxian felt a huge urge of power in his body. Falling to the ground, Liuxian placed his hand on the ground gasping as he couldn't control the sudden increase in his power.

“What did you do to me?” Liuxian asked when he saw black powers escaping from his hands.

“Cover your two hands together and turn them down. Let your left hand come out on top." Peng Chen said instructing Liuxian.

Doing as Peng Chen said, Liuxian placed two of his hands together and covered them turning his hands down. Opening his hands again, Liuxian was suprised as all the black powers were gone.

“Go inside quickly. You don't have much time with my powers. After five minutes, they will disappear and you will be left powerless. Go on ahead. Don't forget to hide those bottles. Go!” Liuxian heard Peng Chen say and immediately took to his feet running.

Stopping on the arena, Liuxian stood thinking about what to do as he held the liquor bottle in his hand. He could go back and drop them in his dormitory but by the time he went and returned, Peng Chen's power would have left his body. Glancing around, Liuxian ran off to his class instead.

Just as he had expected, everyone was still testing their powers. The entire class was laughing as he entered making him stop scared thinking it was him. Fortunately, it wasn't him. It was a strong looking student whom he had thought would have the most core strength out of the whole class. Seemed like it was under right not to judge a book by its cover.

“Liuxian. Thank the heavenly gods that you are back. You can step forward and test your own core strength now.” Liuxian heard his teacher say.

Allowing the liquor bottles in his hands to fall, Liuxian used his leg to push it under his desk before stepping forward. This is one of the most crucial moments in his life. Taking a deep breath, Liuxian hit the wall watching as the wall lightened up.

Standing anxiously, Liuxian looked stared at his hands as he waited for his result. Hearing the sound click, Liuxian stopped waiting to hear any response from his classmates the same way they had done earlier to the boy before him.

“Liuxian core strength, True Law.” Liuxian heard his teacher say making his eyes widen.

True Law? How was it possible? Realizing it might be due to Peng Chen's powers, Liuxian closed his eyes briefly regretting it. He shouldn't have asked Peng Chen for his powers. Peng Chen's combat preception had already reached True Law. A level that took 50 years to cultivate. Martial artists at this stage were supposed to be already old and having grey hair. Peng Chen was so young. How was it possible that he had already reached True Law at his young age?

“True Law? How is that possible?” Liuxian heard his classmates ask.

“ Liuxian. Is this really your core strength power? You didn't eat anything? You left the class for a while saying you were going to the bathroom but you didn't come back after a long time. What were you doing?” Liuxian heard his teacher ask.

Glancing around, Liuxian saw everyone staring at him as he thought of an excuse to tell his teacher. Telling the truth sounded like a very scary thing to him now and he couldn't even bring himself to say it.

“I really went to the bathroom. I took a long time because you know, my body is usually shy in places that are unfamiliar. And besides, it was a huge dump." Liuxian said nonchalantly making everyone laugh.

“Do you think it's funny? A young boy like you. Your core strength is already in True Law? What household do you come from in the protectors clan?" Liuxian heard his teacher ask making him bite his lip.

Now his background was going to be exposed too. Looking down at his hands, Liuxian heard his teacher hit a table flipping it over to the ground. Jerking back, Liuxian turned around shocked only to see that his teacher's fist coming and him. Moving backwards, Liuxian shifter out of reach.

“ Teacher. What are you doing?" Liuxian asked as he saw his teacher coming at him again.

Judging by the immerse power of his teacher, Liuxian assumed that his teacher had already reached Immortality Refinement. His teacher had been able to use his bare strength to destroy a table into thin air, he was no match for him.

Using his Qinggong skills, Liuxian jumped out of the window trying to escape. His teacher was hot on his tail following him and just then, Liuxian held a painful blow to the middle of his back stopping him. Falling to the ground, Liuxian rolled around unable to stop until he hit a barrel.

“Why are you doing this to me?” Liuxian asked weakly as he cleaned the blood coming from his mouth.

“You are a spy, aren't you? A member of the Toxin Sect.” Liuxian heard his teacher say.

By this time, students had already gathered looking through the window of their classrooms. The mention of the Toxin Sect immediately led to everyone murmuring.

“What are you doing? What is happening here?” Liuxian heard a voice ask making him look up.

It was Duan Xinya, the principal of Enchanting Void. Her beautiful golden dress and huge golden headpiece immediately wowed everyone as they looked at her. She was indeed like an immortal fairy.

“He is a spy. He is refusing to tell us what household his family is from in the protectors clan and his core strength is already at True Law!” Liuxian heard his teacher say.

“I am not a spy." Liuxian said weakly as he felt Duan Xinya take his hand using her powers on him.

“ Take him to my office. None of you should lay a single hand on him. Carry him carefully.” Liuxian heard his principal say as they lifted him.

His entire body felt weak and they carried him. By the time he reached the principal's office, he didn't have the strength to even talk.

“Look at him. No matter what level he is, it is impossible that he can defeat you. You just bullied him.” Liuxian heard his principal say scolding his teacher.

Watching as she walked coming to him, Liuxian couldn't hide his smile. Duan Xinya was known to be the most beautiful woman toping the list as Number 1. Her fair skin and long silky hair enchanted everyone. She was healing him. She was helping him but all Liuxian could think about was her scent. The faint smell of blowing rose petals filled his nose taking him up to the tenth heaven.

“Are you okay?" Liuxian heard his principal making him stand up.

His entire body was okay and all his internal injuries had been healed. Moving his joints, Liuxian smiled nodding his head.

“ He has not yet told us what household he is from. You should not just let him go.” Liuxian heard this teacher say.

“Liuxian, isn't it? What household do you come from?” Liuxian heard his principal ask.

“I am Fei Liuxian. My father is Fei Bai Ying." Liuxian said watching as the faces of his principal and his teacher changed.

“Fei Bai Ying? You are his son? That would explain the immerse powers you have." Liuxian heard his teacher say making him roll his eyes. Now his teacher was afraid.

“But the last time I checked, Bai Ying's son was not a prodigy. You are already in True Law. Are you really Bai Ying's son?” Liuxian heard Duan Xinya ask.

“The news was leaked that way to protect me. My father didn't want anyone coming after me.” Liuxian said stopping as he realized that his mouth was becoming dry again.

“What's wrong? Are you still hurt or something?” Duan Xinya asked looking at Liuxian.

His completion had changed greatly becoming pale. Looking at the sun, Liuxian moved his hand trying to calculate the time. He had spent a lot of time idling but still, the upgrade shouldn't have been done so easily.

“I have to go. Principal Duan, you can always send a message to my father. He will tell you more about me. Please excuse me." Liuxian said running out of Duan Xinya's office.

Heading to his class, Liuxian ran as if he was being chased. He had to get to his class for the liquor Peng Chen had given him. Entering inside, Liuxian rushed to his desk running to take the wine from under the table. Running back out, Liuxian quickly hid behind a building. Opening the bottle, Liuxian threw the cap away and gulped down the wine hurriedly without a second thought.

Just like before, Liuxian found himself in a room. The room was certainly different from the one he had seen the first time. This time, he was standing on a high platform. Looking down, Liuxian could see there was obviously a platform below where he was standing yet he could see it. Other than that, below was dark and bottomless. Assuming that was what the voice had warmed him was Level 0, Liuxian stepped back not wanting to mistakenly fall.

“Where am I?” Liuxian asked even when he knew the answer.

[Congratulations on entering Level 2]

[Upgrade has been finished. Other bonuses have also been given]

“Bonuses?" Liuxian asked watching as the wall seperating him and the bookshelf disappeared.

Walking over to where the bookshelf was, Liuxian gasped as he saw different powerful martial books. Most of these books were hard to find anywhere yet all of them were just sitting down there.

“These are all, powerful books.” Liuxian said excitedly as he looked at them checking them.

[Level 2 tasks: 10000 Phoenix Coins needed to level up.]

Hearing the voice, Liuxian stopped nodding his head. 10000 coins were going to be easy to earn.

“What are the tasks?” Liuxian asked watching as a scroll dropped down slowly from up in front of him. Stretching his hand forward, Liuxian reached out for the scroll when it opened up by itself.

[Level 2 tasks:]

[Learn the Banishing force sutra: 2000 coins]

[ Visit the Inscriptions Pleasure House: 1000 coins]

[ Return before 6am: 2000 coins]

[ Bow down 500 times in total: 1000 coins]

[Find the Liquor of Resurrection hidden in the school: 4000 coins]

Reading it, Liuxian's eyes widened as he saw the tasks that had been assigned for hi to complete. Looking up, Liuxian scoffed.

“Visit the Inscriptions Pleasure House? It's the most difficult task and yet, it's getting only 1000 coins? How is that possible? And how am I supposed to return before 6am? Don't you know that the gate will not be open until the 10th hour of the morning? Is this tasks so I can get expelled from the school? My father will have my head!” Liuxian said screaming.

All of a sudden, Liuxian found himself back in the real world. Glancing around, Liuxian sighed after seeing that no one was near him.
