"Go!"
Without another word, he strode alone into the beast-taming barrier, his movements decisive and swift.
From the corner of his eye, he saw a gloomy, chilling glint flash through Wu Su's eyes as he entered the beast-taming barrier. Clearly, the killing trap had already been laid.
Boom!
The beast-taming barrier's gate slammed shut, sealed tight.
"Brother Wu, why go easy on him?" Wei Yang asked, somewhat puzzled.
Wu Su said helplessly, "After all, he was recruited by your aunt. My father giving him a few difficult tests is actually for your aunt's sake—it will give people less to gossip about."
"I see..."
Wei Yang felt somewhat guilty. She had been a little displeased just now, only realizing now that they had good intentions.
What a brainless fool. Seeing her expression, An Ning knew exactly what she was thinking and could only grumble inwardly.
She cared about Li Tianming, so naturally, her attention was fixed on the white-haired youth.
At that moment, everyone cast cold eyes into the barrier!
Inside the beast-taming barrier, the white-haired youth stood facing the Dead Star Emperor Kun. Before that colossal beast, he appeared somewhat slight.
Just as Wu Su had said, after being soothed by him, the Dead Star Emperor Kun seemed extremely stable and gentle in temperament.
Its dim eyes watched Li Tianming, and it even tilted its head, looking somewhat curious.
"Wave at it and touch it. That counts as passing the test." Seeing no one else speak, Wei Yang casually reminded Li Tianming, her expression one of charity.
Yet she alone was too optimistic, believing Wu Su's words. In the eyes of the other elder officials, this test would absolutely not end so simply.
Sure enough!
The Dead Star Emperor Kun had originally been approaching Li Tianming, drawing closer and closer.
