While they were talking, Peter Brown heard a quarrel outside. When everyone looked out, what they saw left Peter Brown in shock. There was a man who looked like a cultivator holding a big knife and with one slash killed another cultivator. After the killing, the man shouted, "Dare to provoke me, you’re seeking death!"
After saying that, the cultivator expert rode on his sword and left quickly.
Peter Brown originally thought that the Cultivation World was a place that respected the law, but he never expected such an event to happen.
"Isn’t there a law?" Peter Brown couldn’t help but ask.
Hayley Smith sighed and said, "The law is for mortals to obey. As for cultivators, they can just kill and leave quickly. Even if they violate the law, someone has to catch them. The person just now was not an ordinary person. He is the youngest son of one of the ten elders in the county town."
So that’s how it was!
Peter Brown’s eyes flickered, and he understood that the Cultivation World was not a place that honored the law, but a place where power ruled.
Levi West said, "Do you see it? When you reach a certain level, the law becomes useless to you!"
Hayley Smith said, "Even though he violated the law, at most they would just punish him with closed-door cultivation for a while, and there won’t be much damage."
As if to further persuade Peter Brown to make up his mind, Levi West said, "In this Cultivation World, you must understand one rule: cultivation determines everything. Only when you enter the Academy will you have a certain level of protection. Otherwise, you won’t even be able to get that protection."
"Academy Protection?"
Seeing Peter Brown’s puzzled eyes, Hayley Smith said, "People who enter the Academy are considered trainee officials. Even if you don’t have any qualifications yet, as long as you’re registered, people with higher cultivation can’t kill you openly, at least. Isn’t that safer?"
What kind of rules are these?!
Peter Brown couldn’t help but be speechless.
After the three left the market, they headed in the direction of the Academy. Now Peter Brown had made up his mind that he had to enter the Academy.
Levi West was now extremely happy and introduced Peter Brown to the book store’s various features along the way.
They had walked a distance when they arrived near the central area. Levi West pointed to a seemingly large area in front of them and said, "Do you see it? This is the Academy. Although it looks very big in the county, if you go to the Shire, you’ll find out it’s quite small."
Hayley Smith said, "What you see is just a part of it. The Academy has many territories that require teleportation formations to reach."
"Levi West, your village finally produced someone with Spiritual Roots, haha."
As they arrived at the entrance, a middle-aged man walked out, laughing heartily.
Seeing this person, Levi West’s expression suddenly darkened, and he snorted, "Levi Dunhill, don’t think you’re great because your village has someone who has reached the Foundation Establishment stage."
"Ha, exactly, I am great, so what? In my village, no one has to pay cultivation coins every year, while some people almost lose their pants because of it."
As the two argued, Peter Brown saw a beautiful young girl standing with the middle-aged man.
The beauty looked at Peter Brown, her eyes full of contempt.
Seeing her expression, Peter Brown frowned slightly.
At this moment, the middle-aged man said to Levi West, "Our village’s Juliett Dunhill is now a Foundation Establishment stage cultivator. She has received admission notifications from the Shire and will be able to study at the Shire Academy next year. Ha, even the Golden Core is within reach. What can your village compare to?"
Then, he turned to Peter Brown and said, "This kid must be the one your village sent, right? Ha, even if his cultivation is high now, don’t expect much development once he enters."
Levi West’s eyes were filled with anger.
"Haha, Levi West, we fought within the Academy, and now I want to see how you compete with me. Juliett, remember, after this kid enters, make sure to give him a hard time!"
When he said this, the middle-aged man’s eyes were full of murderous intent.
The beautiful girl looked at Peter Brown, pouting, "He’s just a Qi Refining Eleventh Layer person."
It was apparent that the beauty would target Peter Brown next.
Peter Brown chuckled, "Is it allowed to kill arbitrarily within the Academy?"
The middle-aged man laughed, "The Academy is not a completely safe place, you know. With so many tasks, sometimes people die by accident, kid. That’s too bad for you, being Levi West’s man."
After saying that, he laughed and left.
The one called Juliett Dunhill glanced at Peter Brown and said, "I’ll be waiting for you at the Academy."
After she finished speaking, a burst of fragrant wind passed by, and the beauty had already entered the Academy.
Seeing the two leave, Levi West stomped his foot and said, "Mr. Brown, I didn’t expect Levi Dunhill to be so vengeful. It’s because of what happened between us during our time in the Academy that you’re now involved!"
Hayley Smith sighed, "Mr. Brown, now you have to enter the Academy no matter what. Levi Dunhill is a vengeful person. If you don’t enter the Academy, he will definitely send someone to assassinate you. But, once you enter, his niece will surely target you. Sigh!"
Peter Brown was slightly depressed at this point, but when he thought about it, his opponent was only a Foundation Establishment First Layer cultivator. Peter Brown didn’t really care about her, as he had killed many higher-level Foundation Establishment cultivators. If this beauty really wanted to deal with him, she would know that Peter was not to be trifled with!
Peter Brown wasn’t really interested in joining the Academy at first, but now that this happened, his fighting spirit was aroused. Since this place was not very law-abiding, all he needed to do was to keep upgrading his cultivation. He wanted to see how these people would deal with him.
Having made up his mind, Peter Brown spoke without any hesitation.
"Are you really sure?"
Levi West was still hesitant.
"I’m broke, so it’s all up to you."
Peter Brown appeared very calm.
Stamping his foot, Levi West said, "If you suffer even the slightest setback, I, Levi West, will fight to the death to take revenge on Levi Dunhill!"
"Haha, it’s not that serious. We’ll see who ends up dealing with whom."
Peter Brown said casually.
Hayley Smith praised, "It seems that Juliett Dunhill might not be able to do anything to you. Just do your best; inside, as long as you don’t kill anyone, you can harass them as much as you want."
