Chapter 2368: The Special Outer Disciple
“The Space-Time Law insights are of immense help to me, I should study it in detail!”
“Other than that, since there are Space-Time Law insights at the Narcissus Mansion, there probably are also Transmigration Law insights . I ought to search thoroughly . ”
Jian Wushuang immediately started a detailed search on the fourth floor .
After searching for a full hour, he only found what he was looking for .
“A document on Space-Time Law insights and another one for Transmigration Law . These two should be enough for me to study for some time, I’ll pick these . ”
Jian Wushuang did not continue his search nor did he rush to the fifth floor either . On the contrary, he held the two jade slips and directly headed downstairs .
It did not take long for Jian Wushuang to go back to the lady in red .
“I choose these two insights . ” Jian Wushuang passed her the pair of jade slips .
The lady in red took a glance at them, nodded slightly, and soon after passed him the copies .
“Thank you . ”
Jian Wushuang thanked her and left .
Back at the Outer Court, he started studying both jade slips .
However, he did not realize that there was a major disturbance at the Outer Court because of him .
“Did you hear? That outer disciple from Outer Court actually holds an Elder’s Token!”
“An Elder’s Token? How is that possible? Isn’t it true that only a member of the Circle of Elders could possess an Elder’s Token? They’re usually very protective of it as well and never easily pass it to others . A lot of outstanding core disciples couldn’t even get one, how could an outer disciple possess it?”
“The news is true though . That Elder’s Token is given by Elder Wujian himself . Not only that, Elder Wujian even instructed the Elixir Court and the Supply Storage to give him a lot more resources than any core disciples . ”
“How could an outer disciple get a lot more resources than a core disciple?”
“Isn’t… Isn’t this favoritism?”
“Who knows? There are rumors going around saying that it’s very possible this outer disciple has some special relationship with Elder Wujian . There were even a number of people saying he was the Elder’s illegitimate son . ”
“Oh yeah, what’s his name?”
“I think it’s Jian Wushuang!!”
The entire Outer Court was boiling with controversy .
Nobody could hide the fact that Jian Wushuang held an Elder’s Token and received much more monthly elixirs and resources than most core disciples . Not only the Outer Court, even core disciples in the Inner Court had heard about it .
Of course, that had sparked displeasure among many people .
One must have realized the treatment Jian Wushuang had received was a lot more luxurious than most core disciples despite him being only an outer disciple .
That was also the reason Jian Wushuang’s identity as an outer disciple on Narcissus Island had become somewhat curious and extremely special .
In the courtyard .
Jian Wushuang was holding the Space-Time Law insights jade slip, browsing, and studying it at will .
“Junior Brother Wushuang . ”
A voice spoke as a stern-looking man with a battle blade on his back slowly walked over .
That man was none other than Yin Long, who lived close to Jian Wushuang’s courtyard .
“Senior Brother Yin Long . ” Jian Wushuang smiled and stood up .
“The rumors are running wild out there, but you’re still quite relaxed here . ” Yin Long smiled .
Jian Wushuang had also heard of various rumors in the Outer Court and smiled helplessly . “It’s their mouths, I can’t stop what they want to say . ”
Yin Long glanced over . “True enough, but you probably should take action so that they would shut up . The Selection will begin three months later, you can take part in it . That would be your chance to show your true abilities to the naysayers . ”
“The Selection at the Outer Court?” Jian Wushuang smiled slightly as he had heard Yin Long mention it before .

The status and treatment difference between outer disciples and core disciples were too big .
As such it initiated the desires of outer disciples wanting to become core disciples and the opportunity to do so was the Selection at the Outer Court .
Therefore, the Selection was of utmost importance to a lot of outer disciples .
One good example was Yin Long, who was standing before him .
“Forget it, I’m still far from that level . Even if I took part in the Selection, I would only be the butt of everyone’s joke,” said Jian Wushuang .
“Junior Brother, you have no plans to take part at all?” Yin Long was surprised .
What he did not know was that if Jian Wushuang had wanted to become a core disciple, he would have become one much earlier without needing to go through the trouble of partaking in the Selection . Hence naturally, he did not feel like attending .
“I’m truly not so interested in the Selection . On the other hand, looks like you’ve set your mind to be selected this time, Senior Brother?” Jian Wushuang looked intriguingly at Yin Long .
Yin Long did not deny . “Correct . Three years ago, I had wanted very much to be selected as a core disciple . However, my ability wasn’t up to par . In the past three years, I gave everything to raise my skills and finally reached the current level . Therefore, I must become the winner in the upcoming Selection!”
Yin Long clenched his hands tightly together and his eyes were burning with hope .
For a short while, Jian Wushuang could see that Yin Long really had strong yearnings to become a core disciple of Narcissus Island .
“In the past few days since I arrived at the Outer Court, I’ve already heard that you’re the strongest among all the outer disciples . Looks like you will be chosen this time around, just as you wish . ” Jian Wushuang smiled .

“Nothing is absolute, but I am a lot more confident this time compared with last time . ”
Yin Long’s face was filled with confidence .
“Junior Brother, do carry on with your practice . I shouldn’t disturb you further . As long as you do what your heart tells you, you shouldn’t worry about the rumors in the Outer Court . ” Yin Long encouraged him before leaving .
Jian Wushuang had a smile on his face while watching Yin Long leaving .
He could not deny that he had a rather good impression towards Yin Long .
First of all, Yin Long had never acted pretentiously towards any fellow Outer Court Disciples—he was a very mild-mannered person .
Secondly, he was very hardworking!
He possessed mediocre talent but worked extra hard to stand out among all the outer disciples . His blade technique was the result of countless tests and constant training .
Jian Wushuang really appreciated a person like that .
“The Selection in three months?”
Jian Wushuang shook his head then continued his studies on the content in the jade slips .
