Primordial Era: A Counterattack Against Hongjun Daozu at the Start

Xiao Ling'er and Shan knelt down without hesitation and said in unison, "Greetings, Ancestor of Humanity."

Zhou Yi nodded in response, "You've worked hard. You don't need to go out on missions anymore. Study poetry with Fang Yun and see if you can achieve even greater success."

The two responded in unison.

The white tiger beside him felt uneasy when it saw this person who had suddenly appeared.

Especially after hearing Xiao Ling'er and Shan's address, it began to suspect that this person might be the legendary human leader Zhou Yi.

At this moment, Zhou Yi's gaze fell on the group of white tiger cubs behind the white tiger.

When this group of white tigers first appeared in the desolate country, they had already caught Zhou Yi's attention.

At first, he didn't pay much attention, but then he discovered that there seemed to be an extraordinary person hidden among them, which aroused his interest and prompted him to show up and find out.

"This aura is wild yet retains its true nature; it doesn't seem to be a demon god, but rather more like the innate nature of a white tiger," Zhou Yi pondered to himself. Thinking this, he slowly walked towards the group of cubs, squatted down, and picked up a small white tiger.

Surprisingly, the little white tiger did not resist at all in his arms, but just stared at Zhou Yi with its round eyes, revealing its bewilderment and curiosity.

The leader, White Tiger, who had been filled with worry, could no longer contain his curiosity. He quickly stepped forward, circled Zhou Yi and the little white tiger several times, carefully examining them, and muttered to himself:

"It's strange. This little guy is usually very unsociable and withdrawn in the tribe. How come he's become so docile and obedient in your hands?"

Zhou Yi raised the corners of his mouth slightly, revealing a mysterious smile, and answered softly.

"This must be what they call fate."

Surprisingly, the white tiger cub seemed to understand the words of the Book of Changes.

It hummed twice and its small body wiggled slightly, as if responding to his words. This scene amazed everyone around.

However, something even more shocking was yet to come. After looking around, Zhou Yi loudly announced, "I intend to take it as my disciple."

These words immediately caused a huge uproar, and everyone's attention was focused on the white tiger.

Given Zhou Yi's current status and reputation in the prehistoric world, it seemed only natural for Baihu to accept such a request. However, Baihu felt somewhat uneasy.

It originally only intended to bring these tiger cubs to the human race to learn writing so that it could record the history and heritage of the White Tiger clan in the future. Unexpectedly, it was now being asked to stay and become an apprentice, which was completely beyond its expectations.

Seeing Baihu hesitate, Zhou Yi did not urge him. Suihuang said to Xiao Ling'er and Shan beside him:

"Take the other demons to the dungeon. Mr. Fang Yun has already made all the necessary arrangements inside; they can't escape. As for Mr. White Tiger, please come in with us and we can discuss this matter in detail."

After making the arrangements, Xiao Ling'er and Shan hurriedly left, afraid of missing out on the excitement.

The remaining white tigers followed Suiren to another place, which was slightly lower than the previous academy, but had a huge dining table set up, with everyone sitting on both sides.

Soon after, the waiter served up fragrant roasted meat and intoxicating wine.

Looking at the white tiger that still maintained its tiger form, Xiao Ling'er finally couldn't contain her curiosity and asked, "Mr. White Tiger, with your strength at the mid-stage of the Celestial Immortal realm, you should have already been able to transform into human form. Why are you still maintaining your tiger form?"

Upon hearing this question, a smile flashed in the white tiger's eyes. It then transformed into human form and gracefully sat down to enjoy its meal.

While eating, he explained, "What you call a human form is just a shape to us."

"Only in this tiger form can I unleash my full power, so why should I pursue that so-called human form?"

Hearing this, everyone nodded thoughtfully. At this moment, Fang Yun and Yu Hao finished their class and, having noticed Zhou Yi's figure at the door earlier, hurried over.

Upon entering, I was surprised to hear what the white tiger said.

Because in the primordial world, most creatures believed that being close to human form was helpful for cultivation.

However, the human race seems to be an exception.

Upon seeing Zhou Yi, Fang Yun and Yu Hao bowed respectfully and addressed him as "Ancestor of Humanity," before joining him in the seating area, their eyes filled with curiosity.

The little white tiger cub in Zhou Yi's arms attracted everyone's attention, and they all looked at it carefully.

At this moment, the White Tiger leader turned to Fang Yun and said, "Welcome, I am Bai Tianyou."

The little white tigers, who were enjoying their meal, looked up at Fang Yun and Yu Hao upon hearing the voice and mumbled, "Hello."

Zhou Yi raised his wine glass, took a small sip, then put the glass down and said to Bai Tianyou:

"If this little tiger is willing to acknowledge me as its teacher, I will set up a special class for the remaining twenty-four tigers, with teachers Fang Yun and Yu Hao personally instructing them. What do you think?"

Fang Yun and Yu Hao had just recovered from the shock of entering the room when they were startled again by Zhou Yi's words.

They exchanged a helpless glance, then turned their attention back to the little white tiger in Zhou Yi's hand. They carefully examined it, but found nothing special about the little guy.

Seeing this, Zhou Yi smiled and said, "No need to look anymore, I have a connection with it."

He continued, "Judging from Bai Tianyou's expression, he doesn't seem too willing, so I have no choice but to 'sell' you two together." This remark amused everyone present.

Bai Tianyou sighed helplessly and nodded in agreement, but added, "Ancestor of Humanity, we must make this clear first: this little fellow is a bit different from others, so you'll have to be more tolerant of him."

Zhou Yi didn't speak, but simply nodded slightly.

Just then, Xiao Ling'er and Shan walked in and overheard Bai Tianyou's words. Xiao Ling'er asked curiously, "What's different about this little guy? I don't see anything special about him."

Bai Tianyou smiled and explained, "That's because this little guy doesn't have a name yet. It's not that the clan hasn't given it a name, but rather that it's not satisfied with any of them."

Moreover, although it was already a year old, it was still smaller than the six-month-old tiger cubs behind it.

Upon hearing this, everyone present showed expressions of surprise.

In this world, the tiger race is known for its rapid growth, and they can usually grow into beings with considerable strength within one or two years.

Such situations are indeed very rare.

The little white tiger seemed to sense the gazes around it and uneasily moved closer to Zhou Yi, snuggling against him.

Zhou Yi gently stroked its head and said, "As for a name, let me help you think of one."

Upon hearing this, Bai Tianyou didn't react much and continued eating and drinking as usual.

Because many powerful individuals had tried to name the little guy before, but all had failed, he didn't have much hope for it.

After a moment's thought, Zhou Yi announced, "Then let's call you Shen Ni!" As soon as he finished speaking, the little white tiger suddenly roared to the sky. Although its voice was childish, it contained a strange power, which made Bai Tianyou's expression change instantly.
