Primordial Era: With unparalleled comprehension, I am the Ancestor of Stars.

Chapter 221 A Big Surprise

"What's the use of this?" Taihao asked.

"If your background is strong, you will receive the most resources in the future. Moreover, there will be a martial arts competition every ten thousand years. If you can win the championship, you will be able to receive a lecture and a photograph from an ancestor, which will be of great benefit to your future cultivation." Shigu said slowly with some envy.

Taihao remained unmoved upon hearing this. He possessed the inherited memories of a Hongmeng-level expert, which far surpassed the teachings of a God-level expert. Therefore, Taihao had absolutely no interest in this.

"Can't I not go?" Taihao lay lazily on the chair, looking unwilling.

"Sure, once you reach the God-Emperor realm, you won't need to. In fact, I can even make you a steward," Shigu said slowly, looking at the lazy-looking Taihao.

"Oh, alright, then I'll go and raise my strength to the God-Emperor realm!" Taihao said casually.

Surprisingly, Shigu did not refute Taihao's words.

He knew how strong Taihao's background was, and he also knew how fast his cultivation speed was.

"Then will you take me there?" Taihao asked!

"Go in by yourself. I'll be a big target if I go in. Take this!" Shigu said to Taihao, then gave Taihao a skull-shaped token and said nothing more.

After receiving the token, Taihao left Shigu's residence and headed in the direction Shigu had told him!

As Taihao traveled along, he discovered many people, each of whom was quite powerful. The weakest among them was at least at the eighth level of the God King realm, and there were also many who had broken through to the God Emperor realm!

"Hey bro, where are you from?" A warm voice suddenly rang out from behind Taihao!

Taihao turned his head and saw a more normal person. Unlike the people he had seen before, who all had either a ferocious or menacing look on their faces, none of them were even remotely normal!

Taihao was happy to finally find someone who seemed normal. He now needed to integrate himself into the group so he could get more information!

"My name is Li Qing, and I come from a small village. What's your name, and where are you from?" The person introduced himself very enthusiastically, without the arrogance and coldness of a demon!

Taihao casually mentioned a name, and then walked towards the testing area with Li Qing!

Soon the two arrived at the testing area. Taihao looked at the densely packed crowd, then walked up to a guard and handed him the token that Shigu had given him. The guard took one look and immediately bowed to Taihao.

"So you are the esteemed disciple of the Twelfth Elder. Please come with me, and I will give you a direct test, after which you can return!" The guard said respectfully to Taihao.

"Li Qing, let's go, let's go test!" Taihao turned to look at Li Qing and found him standing still, somewhat puzzled.

"You are already a disciple of the Twelfth Elder! I was very rude just now, please forgive me!" Li Qing had just seen the guard's respect for Taihao. He was very scared. He was just a person from a small village who entered the Demon Clan with some strength and luck. He never expected that the first person he met after entering would be the disciple of the Twelfth Elder who had just been there!

"Alright, since we're destined to meet, don't put too much pressure on yourselves. Let's be like we were before, no need to be so reserved!" Taihao said, looking at Li Qing's restraint.

After listening to Taihao's words, Li Qing hesitated for a moment, and then followed Taihao over!

In the demon realm, the strong prey on the weak, and it's very difficult to survive without a powerful backer. A big shot like Taihao is definitely a leader among those who have just entered the demon realm!

The two were quickly led to the testing area by guards. Just as they were about to be tested, a voice rang out: "Who are you? Why are you cutting in line?"

Taihao smiled, turned his head and looked over, and found a huge body with muscles all over its body, exuding terrifying power!

Moreover, his strength is actually at the second level of the Divine Emperor realm. The second level of the Divine Emperor realm is among the top existences of these people who have just entered the Demon Clan. No wonder he dares to run wild here!

Taihao merely glanced at him indifferently before turning to Li Qing beside him and saying, "Let's begin!" He completely ignored the speaker.

The burly man who had spoken was furious that Taihao was being ignored. "Kid, you're pretty arrogant. I'll see what you're capable of!" he said, throwing a punch at Taihao.

Taihao felt the terrifying punch and his eyes turned slightly cold. Just as the fist was about to land on him, he suddenly turned around and threw a punch at the burly man!

"Who is this guy? He actually dares to fight him head-on! He's known as the Barbarian King, who can shatter a mountain with a single punch. His power is terrifying!" The people around were all shocked when they saw Taihao and the Barbarian King clash!

"Looks like someone else is going to suffer. I bet that kid will get smashed into a pulp by the Barbarian King's fist!" The people around him didn't think highly of Taihao, because the difference between the two was obvious at a glance.

The two fists collided instantly, and a piercing sound made everyone's ears hurt. Then, a huge figure flew towards the crowd!

The crowd was terrified and quickly dodged away. No one wanted to get involved in this mess. In the end, the huge figure flew backward and crashed to the ground, creating a huge crater!

Everyone knew that the Barbarian King had been defeated, and defeated utterly. He was sent flying with just one move, and such an injury would be difficult to heal in less than a thousand years!

The gazes of the crowd now held a mixture of respect and fear as they looked at Taihao!

Taihao originally wanted to finish the test as soon as possible and rush back, but he did not expect that someone would provoke him, and it was someone at the second level of the God Emperor realm. Although his strength level was only at the peak of the first level of the God Emperor realm, his combat power was enough to fight against a God Venerable. How could someone at the second level of the God Emperor realm possibly be his opponent!

Others might not be able to discern Taihao's true strength, but Li Qing, standing beside him, clearly sensed it, which made Li Qing even more respectful towards Taihao!

Taihao kept his footwork at a mid-to-high level, and after registering, he left with Li Qing! No one said a word after that!

The two quickly returned to Shigu's residence. As soon as Taihao arrived at the door, Shigu was already standing there!

Upon seeing Shigu appear and feeling the immense pressure emanating from him, Li Qing quickly bowed and greeted Shigu, saying, "Li Qing greets the Twelfth Elder!"

"What do you want? Why did you bring people here to play tricks on us? Do you want to die quickly?" Shigu transmitted his voice to Taihao!

When Shigu sensed that Taihao and another person were coming together, he went straight out the door to see what Taihao was up to.

"Don't be nervous, relax. He doesn't have a master right now, so you can take him under your wing. That way, I'll have a junior brother too, right?" Taihao didn't send a telepathic message to Shigu, but instead smiled and said directly to Shigu.

"Alright, then I'll take him as my disciple. From today onwards, you'll be my second disciple!" Bone-Eater, unaware of what Taihao "103" was planning, said to Li Qing with a slightly defiant tone.

"Thank you, Master! This disciple will certainly live up to your expectations!" Li Qing knelt down and said to Shi Gu.

Bone Eater simply snorted coldly and then disappeared!

The reason Taihao had Shigu take Li Qing as his disciple was because more people meant more power, so he could find what he wanted to know more quickly!
