"???" Xu Yi was confused. In his opinion, he hadn't done anything. He just wanted to develop in a bigger city and obtain better resources. So why couldn't he be believed by Wang Zhen? As for the resume and Liu Cheng's evaluation mentioned by Wang Zhen, Xu Yi didn't know what they were.

"Manager Wang, is there some misunderstanding between us?" Although Xu Yi was already suffocating under the terrifying pressure and couldn't even stand up straight, his tone remained neither humble nor arrogant, without a trace of begging for mercy. Wang Zhen couldn't even sense any remorse from Xu Yi, or perhaps the person in front of her simply didn't think he was wrong.

Wang Zhen wavered. Was she wrong? Or was Xu Yi's disguise too good?

He snorted coldly, then looked at Xu Yi, staring intently into his eyes as if trying to see a guilty expression in him.

In fact, Wang Zhen didn't care whether Xu Yi was right or wrong. All he wanted was a result. If Xu Yi really thought he was wrong, then he would definitely reveal his weakness. If Xu Yi was not wrong, he could just make amends later. In his worldview, it was better to kill the innocent than to let the guilty go free.

He dared not gamble. At least now was a time when Wanbaoge needed people, and he could not keep someone of unknown origin, or even someone with an unclear personality, by his side.

He used to be a mid-to-high-level employee at Wanbaoge, and he knew all about its loopholes. There were indeed similar cases in the department he worked for before, so he understood the intricacies involved. Moreover, the issue of falsifying resumes was real; he had experienced it once himself. After that experience, Wang Zhen never trusted any resume again.

Initially, Wanbaoge created this resume department and function to make it easier for managers to hire people without having to consider things themselves. But who would have thought that someone could forge this resume?

Previously, Wang Zhen trusted the managers who were his peers, but even that trust eventually crumbled after some major events occurred that baffled and confused him. After that incident, Wang Zhen stopped looking at resumes when hiring new employees for Liucheng Wanbaoge. He insisted on personally assessing them before he could trust them.

Xu Yi was no exception. Although his relationship with Liu Cheng had been alright before, the two hadn't seen each other for a long time, and Wang Zhen couldn't believe that someone hadn't changed in so long...

In fact, Wang Zhen's actions were simply related to his own experiences. It wasn't that he didn't believe in things, but rather that his past experiences made it impossible for him to believe in certain things anymore.

It's not his fault; everyone's experiences are different, there's nothing that can be done...

"Misunderstanding? Fine, Xu Yi, then let me ask you, if you dare to lie to me, I will definitely take your life. I once cultivated a spell that can distinguish the truth from falsehood in what people say. If you have lied to me, then you will not be able to leave this treasure pavilion alive today!" Wang Zhen's tone was extremely cold, as if Xu Yi was doomed to die today.

"Alright! Manager Wang, ask away!" Xu Yi seemed to realize something; this Manager Wang was really difficult to deal with...

Did Wang Zhen go through something before? Why is he so distrustful of an outsider now? Is he really that unreliable?

"I'm asking you, did you force Liu Cheng to forge your resume?" Wang Zhen's tone was almost magical, giving Xu Yi a dreamlike feeling. Xu Yi even felt as if Wang Zhen was talking to him in a dream, a very unreal feeling.

He was already suppressed by Wang Zhen's cultivation and trapped in a strange space. Was this the power of the Golden Core? Xu Yi was very impressed. The Golden Core stage was indeed a very powerful realm, far superior to the Foundation Establishment stage. If all major realms were so vastly different, then how did the so-called cross-level battles even exist?

Given the vast difference between these major realms, a gap that could be described as insurmountable, Xu Yi couldn't imagine how he would manage to fight across realms.

Xu Yi felt that he was simply incapable of fighting beyond his level. In his opinion, such fighting seemed impossible in this world. Even though he had practiced so many strange spells, and even the Daoist scriptures of the human race according to the Fiend Clan Chief, Xu Yi did not think that his current foundation was sufficient to fight against a cultivator in the early stage of the Golden Core realm.

He dared not. He knew the power of the laws. He himself cultivated the laws of the soul, but he had not yet mastered them. Only by truly mastering the laws of the soul could he advance to the Golden Core stage. Right now, he was only half a step ahead, and what he had comprehended so far was only the true meaning of the soul.

If he were to fight a Golden Core cultivator who had already comprehended the laws of the soul in his current state, wouldn't that be asking for trouble? How could he possibly defeat such a person...?

"Manager Wang, I know nothing about what you're saying. I don't even know what your so-called resume and evaluation are!" Xu Yi also had a temper. In his view, he had been inexplicably suppressed. Although they were in a secluded place, how could he be bullied like this...

What a grievance! Xu Yi now felt that he should not have come to Liucheng. He wondered if he was going to perish like this. His journey to find the truth had only just begun, and he was about to enter the so-called Golden Core stage, at which point he would have some ability to protect himself.

A sigh escaped his lips. He had thought that arriving in Liucheng would open up a world of possibilities, but little did he know that he had entered a den of wolves and tigers.

On the other side, Wang Zhen paused after hearing Xu Yi's answer, because Xu Yi was telling the truth. He was cultivating the Divine Soul Law, but he could now condense the law into a Dharma Image... a true Dharma Image, which was the mark of the Nascent Soul Realm.

However, he had suffered some hidden injuries in his early years, which is why he retired here and became a manager.

The divine soul laws he cultivated were so transparent that Xu Yi, a junior who hadn't even reached the Golden Core stage, had nowhere to hide from him. In fact, it could be said that he could see right through Xu Yi, and Xu Yi had no chance to lie in front of him.

Even a Golden Core cultivator wouldn't be able to fool him; a Golden Core cultivator couldn't lie to him either. This is the power of the Divine Soul Law.

Among all the laws, the power of the Divine Soul Law can be ranked in the top ten. However, correspondingly, it is extremely difficult for him to cultivate. The path of spiritual energy immortality is already a difficult path to advance, and now he also has to cultivate obscure and difficult laws. In this way, it is even more difficult to make any achievements in the Divine Soul Law.

"Have you ever threatened Liu Cheng in any way? Or have you used your strength to make Liu Cheng compromise with you?" As soon as Wang Zhen said this, Xu Yi realized that Manager Wang didn't actually have any bad intentions. He was just afraid that his strength would cause trouble in the Lion City Wanbao Pavilion, so he used his strength to make Liu Cheng compromise with him in order to achieve his own goals.

Xu Yi breathed a sigh of relief; at least he wouldn't die today.

"Manager Wang, I have never experienced any of the situations you described. If you don't believe me, we can go to Lion City and confront Manager Liu in person."

"When I first arrived in Lion City, Manager Liu valued me highly. How could I do something so heinous to get revenge on Manager Liu? Although I am not a very good person, Manager Wang, you can't say that I am just a beast... You can't question my character!" Xu Yi said these words slowly and calmly, so calmly that it was almost frightening.

After listening to what Xu Yi said, Wang Zhen finally lowered his guard. According to the hints in his sea of ​​laws, Xu Yi was not lying, and what Xu Yi said was the truth.

It seems that Xu Yi is a very honest person, and Liu Cheng's evaluation of him is also true and valid.

After figuring this out, Wang Zhen quickly withdrew his supernatural powers. He personally helped Xu Yi up from the ground and performed a cleansing ritual.

"Xiao Yi, I misunderstood you just now, haha, but I was just worried that you might have a problem, right?" When Wang Zhen said this, he was a little embarrassed, and even a little helpless. He had been tricked by this kind of thing before, so he must have been very careful about this matter.

"Oh, Manager Wang, it's alright, it's alright." Xu Yi smiled helplessly.

Wang Zhen has a story to tell. He can see that everyone has their own worries or things that have happened in the past, so everyone is careful and cautious.

He could actually understand why Wang Zhen did this.

Xu Yi didn't want to ask any more questions about what exactly happened; it was obvious that Wang Zhen would probably tell him soon.

"Some things happened that made me wary. Xiao Yi, don't blame me. You are a good person. The Divine Soul Law I cultivate is from the same source as yours. If you are willing, I can teach you!" From the first moment Wang Zhen saw Xu Yi, he already knew that the person in front of him also cultivated the Divine Soul Law.

Not only that, Xu Yi also possessed the aura of another Flame True Meaning. He had mastered two True Meanings at the same time. However, this Flame True Meaning was somewhat immature and even had a fake appearance, which clearly indicated that his foundation was unstable. On the other hand, the Divine Soul True Meaning was indeed extremely solid. Wang Zhen judged that Xu Yi probably wanted to rely on the Divine Soul True Meaning to advance to the Law, thereby achieving the Golden Core stage. If that was the case, then it would be perfect. Right in front of Xu Yi was a cultivator who had achieved the Nascent Soul stage by relying on the Divine Soul Law.

However, in Xu Yi's and the outside world's eyes, he, the manager of Wanbaoge, seemed to be only a Golden Core cultivator, but his strength was considered superior among Golden Core cultivators.

"You also cultivate the Divine Soul Law?" Xu Yi asked in surprise. He had originally thought that the Divine Soul Law was very difficult to cultivate, but he did not expect to meet a fellow practitioner here.

"Hehe, of course. If you buy the method for advancing to the Divine Soul Golden Core in Wanbaoge, you might also be able to buy my book..." Wang Zhen said with a smile. To survive in Wanbaoge, one must have some survival skills, such as writing down one's own experience of advancing. This is a very valuable thing for every cultivator who is about to advance.

Moreover, the cultivators of Wanbaoge have very strict control over the sale of experience-related items. Every piece of experience sold requires the cultivator to make a Heavenly Dao oath before it can be sold to you. Therefore, the people of Wanbaoge are never afraid that these buyers will leak the information.

It is precisely because of this strict system that Wanbaoge has been able to sell advancement experience for so long without any mistakes.

Moreover, the advancement experience sold by Wanbaoge is all one-time use. Once you purchase it, the buyer touches the post, and the information recorded in the post will be transmitted into the buyer's mind. The post will then self-destruct and disappear. The purchased advancement experience must be used in person at Wanbaoge.

The amount of advancement experience that each manager of Wanbaoge can sell is the upper limit of their own cultivation level.

For example, in the Lion City Treasure Pavilion, you can't buy the Golden Core stage advancement experience; you can only buy the Foundation Establishment stage advancement experience because Liu Cheng's cultivation level is only at the Foundation Establishment Perfection stage.

He hasn't even reached the Golden Core stage yet, so he's not allowed to sell anything from the Golden Core stage.

So what's the process? Xu Yi was very curious; this Wanbao Pavilion in Liucheng didn't just have three floors! It seemed to have four...

Each level represents a realm, but why is the fourth level seemingly sealed off? Could it be that Wang Zhen is a half-step Nascent Soul cultivator? Has he already stepped one foot into the Nascent Soul realm?

Or perhaps you once reached this level but have fallen from it, which is why this fourth level is locked...

Or perhaps there are other special nascent souls.

Xu Yi was intelligent, and he easily guessed some things.

"Manager Wang, do you have any recommendations? I am indeed about to advance to the Golden Core stage, and I am currently looking for some experience in advancing to the Golden Core stage." Xu Yi said with a smile. He had no temper left. So what if Wang Zhen just suppressed him? She is the manager, and the manager has the final say.

Moreover, Xu Yi understood Wang Zhen's actions. If it were him, he would have done the same after experiencing certain things.

"No need, I'll teach you myself!" Wang Zhen had no intention of letting Xu Yi spend any contribution points. It was his rudeness first, and Xu Yi's talent was very high, according to Liu Cheng's assessment. However, Wang Zhen didn't know exactly how high it was. He would find out when he taught the techniques later. In his opinion, although Liu Cheng was a good person, his cultivation level was a major weakness. He hadn't seen any true geniuses and probably didn't understand what high talent really meant. True high talent was not so simple.

Wang Zhen examined Xu Yi's bone age and concluded that if he could achieve the Golden Core stage at this age, his talent was indeed terrifying.

It seems there's no need to even try...
