"Goodbye, fellow disciples," Yuan said to Elder Shan's disciples before leaving the premises.

The two disciples watched as Yuan's figure disappeared into the distance, and they mumbled—

"Just who is that Outer Court disciple? What relationship does he have with our Master?" Qian Qi asked out loud.

"I have never seen him before so I don't know. But if he can come to this place as an Outer Court disciple then there must be something special about him. Maybe he's from a powerful family," said Bei Bei the Core Disciple.

A couple of minutes later, once the pain dealt by Xiao Hua had finally disappeared, Elder Shan came back outside and returned to their lectures.

When her disciples saw this, they wondered if she would tell them about that mysterious Outer Court disciple later, but alas, Elder Shan never mentioned Yuan even after their lecture ended.

After leaving Elder Shan's place, Yuan began making his way towards the Treasury Hall, but then he recalled something that made him turn around and walk in another direction.

Sometime later, Yuan arrived at a familiar-looking place— Fei Yuyan's living quarters.

Yuan approached the doorstep and knocked on her door.

After waiting for a couple of moments without any answer, Yuan knocked on the door again, and he repeated this for a few minutes.

"Is she not home?" Yuan mumbled.

Yuan decided to wait a few more minutes just in case Fei Yuyan was busy.

Once he was certain that Fei Yuyan was absent, Yuan decided to leave for now and head to the Treasury Hall.

"I'll just come back here at another time since I can enter the Inner Court without any problems now."

After leaving Fei Yuyan's living quarters, Yuan finally arrived at the Treasury Hall half an hour later, and although it resembled the Exchange Hall, there was only a single floor here.

Upon entering the building, Yuan went straight to the front desk where a sect elder was in charge.

The sect elder turned to look at Yuan with raised eyebrows after seeing his Outer Court uniform.

"What's an Outer Court disciple like you doing here? Only Inner Court disciples are allowed to use this place, you know." The sect elder said to him.

Hearing the sect elder's question, Yuan retrieved his spatial ring and took out the silver medallion that Elder Xuan had given to him before showing it to the sect elder behind the desk.

"Can I use this place if I have this?" Yuan asked him in a calm voice.

"What's that?"

The sect elder did not immediately recognize the silver medallion at first because it was so rare. However, once he picked it up and inspected it, his eyes widened with shock, and he exclaimed, "T-The Silver Fortune Medallion! Where'd you get this?!" The sect elder exclaimed in a startled voice, sounding as though he'd just witnessed his ancestors crawling out of their graves.

"Uhh… It was given to me?" Yuan said.

"Nonsense! There's no way an Outer Court disciple would have something like this! You either stole it or found it by accident! I am confiscating this now!" The elder said with a frown on his face as he tossed the Silver Fortune Medallion inside his pocket.

"What?!" Yuan exclaimed in a surprised manner, and he spoke, "How could you accuse me of stealing it when you have no proof! It was given to me! You can't just take it from me!"

"Hmph! Do I need any proof besides you being an Outer Court disciple?"

"What does my disciple status have anything to do with this?" Yuan asked with a frown.

"Then let me ask you this— What kind of Outer Court disciple would have the Silver Fortune Medallion that allows one to retrieve as many treasures as they want from the Treasury Hall?! Not even Core Disciples would be given such a thing, let alone an Outer Court disciple!" The sect elder responded. After all, if the sect were to give an Outer Court disciple the Silver Fortune Medallion that allows them near full access to the Treasury Hall, they might as well make him a high-ranking sect elder!

"But it is a fact that I was given that medallion! Please give it back to me." Yuan extended his hand with a stern look on his face.

"The audacity! I am already saving you some face by not giving you a beating for stealing such a precious thing! If you don't scram, I'll not only discipline you but also report you to the Sect Master!" The sect elder raised his voice, causing the other people there to notice them.

"Stealing? Did that Outer Court disciple steal something from the Treasury Hall? Does he have a death wish?"

"What kind of idiot would try to steal from the sect…"

The Inner Court disciples there shook their heads before returning to their own business, as they couldn't care less about an Outer Court disciple who was about to be punished.

"Well?! Do you admit to stealing the Silver Fortune Medallion or not?!" The sect elder then said, urging Yuan to admit his faults.

"I did not steal anything!"

However, Yuan did not back down and refused to admit to something he didn't do.

Seeing this, the sect elder trembled in anger, and he suddenly pulled his arms back before releasing it, propelling his palms at Yuan with a powerful force.

"Get out of here!" The sect elder said as he attacked Yuan, trying to kick him outside with force.

Yuan's eyes widened with surprise when the sect elder attacked him out of nowhere. Though, since the sect elder was only a sixth-level Spirit Warrior, Yuan did not feel intimidated or pressured.

Just as the sect elder's palms reached Yuan's chest, Yuan activated his movement technique and dodged the strike flawlessly.

The sect elder's eyes widened with surprise when Yuan dodged his surprise attack, and he could feel many surprised gazes directed at him, which caused his face to flush with redness.

"Y-You little brat…!" The sect elder growled in a low voice, feeling like Yuan had slapped him in the face by dodging his strike in front of so many people.
