"Most skilled at mental power?"
Heart Demon Thunder Emperor smiled.
He was not bragging.
Ever since becoming an emperor, this was the first person who had dared to claim expertise in mental power before him—and he was merely an Earth Supreme.
Of course.
It was not that he looked down on Earth Supremes.
Lu Yuan was also an Earth Supreme.
From beginning to end, he had not shown the slightest contempt.
But Earth Supremes also depended on the circumstances.
If this Earth Supreme had claimed to excel in another area and truly demonstrated the corresponding ability—like how Lu Yuan had displayed Spatial Power no weaker than that of a peak late-stage Saint Grade Heavenly Sovereign during their previous exchange—then, considering Lu Yuan's realm, he would indeed acknowledge that Lu Yuan was qualified to stand on equal footing with him. In other words, someone capable of such achievements at the Earth Supreme realm would at the very least become a Saint Grade Heavenly Sovereign in the future. They might even become a new one of the Nine Emperors. Of course, by then, the Nine Emperors might become the Ten Emperors. In short, what mattered was ability, not merely one's realm.
As for people like Heart Demon Thunder Emperor and Lu Yuan—
They were like a turtle eyeing a mung bean: they had caught each other's eye.
Two people whose mindsets were not too different.
Strictly speaking, they were also suited to becoming master and disciple.
It could be said that if Heart Demon Thunder Emperor had left behind an inheritance several hundred thousand years later, Lu Yuan would definitely have been one of the suitable candidates, and would most likely have obtained Heart Demon Thunder Emperor's inheritance. Just as the Western Heaven Battle Emperor had stood out among countless Earth Supremes
