That evening, the golden-robed mentor Luo Tong also came to Ren Rulong's residence.
"Student pays respects to Professor Luo!"
Ren Rulong got out of bed and bowed to Luo Tong.
A mentor at the Quasi-God Realm must be given the utmost respect by any student!
"You're injured, no need for formalities! Let's talk while you're lying down!"
Luo Tong helped him up, his attitude very humble.
Ren Rulong lay back down on the bed.
"This is a mid-grade Profound Essence Pill, which can help you recover to your original state as quickly as possible!"
Luo Tong took a milky-white pill and handed it to Ren Rulong.
"This... I thank Professor Luo for the medicine!"
Ren Rulong paused for a moment, then made a move to get up.
"I've already said it, no need for further formalities!"
Luo Tong pressed on Ren Rulong's shoulder to stop him from getting up, then stuffed the Profound Essence Pill into his hand.
Ren Rulong felt a little strange.
Other mentors came to visit him and gave him healing pills, but they were all spiritual pills, none of them were of the profound grade!
Why is this Quasi-God mentor so kind to me?
A mid-grade Xuan Dan (a type of medicinal pill) is quite valuable!
You may not know me well enough; I'm someone who greatly values and cherishes talent!
Luo Tong smiled gently and said, "I've heard of you before. You're a very good martial arts genius. Without a strong family background or access to many cultivation resources, you still reached the sixth rank of the Martial Ancestor Realm at the age of eighteen. That's extremely rare!"
"Professor Luo, you flatter me!"
Ren Rulong was modest on the surface, but in his heart he was enjoying being praised so highly by a Quasi-God expert.
"In just three months, you've leaped from the sixth rank of the Martial Ancestor Realm to the initial stage of the Martial Emperor Realm. This speed is astonishing and truly demonstrates your exceptional talent!"
Luo Tong added, "Such talent must not be wasted, nor can it be delayed!"
"Don't worry, Professor Luo, I will definitely work even harder!"
Ren Rulong replied.
"Your confession to Dongfang Yao this morning was a bit abrupt, but your courage is commendable!"
Luo Tong continued, "However, just as Dongfang Yao said, if you can't defeat the Little Prince of Chishui, it will be difficult for you to gain the approval of Dongfang Yao and the Great Xia Imperial Clan! I heard that you also publicly stated that you will definitely defeat the Little Prince of Chishui sooner or later, very good!"
"To be honest, Instructor Luo, I don't really have much confidence in defeating the Little Prince of Chishui. The gap between us is still very large!"
Ren Rulong replied sullenly.
"Some gaps can actually be bridged!"
Luo Tong said, "He's only four years old. He only has a terrifying foundation because he has an Invincible God Realm mother, but he's not diligent in cultivation, so his martial arts level is definitely not high!"
"You have the advantage in martial arts!"
"If you equip yourself with some suitable magical artifacts, your chances of defeating him will increase significantly!"
"After all, you and he are both at the Martial Emperor Realm! The reason he can easily kill Martial Emperor Realm demons is because those demons have been imprisoned for too long, not because he can truly crush all Martial Emperor Realm!"
Upon hearing this, Ren Rulong didn't reply, but simply nodded.
"I'll give you another Supreme-Grade Profound Artifact. With it, your combat power will increase significantly!"
As Luo Tong spoke, he took out another long silver needle-shaped magic weapon, " Martial Emperor Realm, now you can activate Supreme-Grade Profound Artifact!"
"This..."
Ren Rulong found it even more unbelievable.
Has my luck really turned around recently?
"I'm never stingy with top geniuses. Even Quasi-God mentor might only encounter a handful of top geniuses like you in their entire life. You deserve this special treatment!"
Luo Tong placed the long needle magic weapon on Ren Rulong's stomach, "Don't be shy, once you reach the God Realm, it'll be your turn to take care of me!"
"If I ever truly achieve God Realm, I will never forget Instructor Luo's kindness in guiding me!"
Ren Rulong clasped his hands in a fist salute and said.
"Once your injuries have healed and your cultivation level has stabilized, you should be able to try challenging the Little Prince of Chishui!"
Luo Tong added, "You must give it your all, without holding back even the slightest bit!"
"The students will not let Professor Luo down!"
"Okay, I'll head back now!"
Luo Tong nodded and then left.
Ren Rulong's heart began to race again!
The Dean promoted me, and so did the Quasi-God Mentor...
Based on what Instructor Luo just said, Ren Rulong had reason to believe that the special treatment he received was related to the Little Prince of Chishui!
The big shots at the Great Xia Divine Martial Institute hope someone can outshine the Little Prince of Chishui!
This person is Ren Rulong!
After pondering for a while, Ren Rulong dripped his blood onto the long silver needle to signify its ownership.
However, he quickly showed a puzzled expression.
This long needle is indeed Supreme-Grade Profound Artifact, possessing extremely strong destructive power!
In fact, its armor-piercing power is comparable to that of Quasi-Divine Artifact!
Its power is not limited to this; it also has a very impressive feature: it can instantly decompose into dozens of tiny needles!
Each tiny needle possesses the same formidable attack power!
Moreover, whether it's a large or small needle, as long as it hits the enemy, the needle will cause the enemy's blood and qi to stagnate rapidly!
For the enemy, this long needle weapon is simply impossible to defend against!
It can be said that any opponent below the Quasi-God Realm who is hit by it is almost certain to die!
Ren Rulong was puzzled because this powerful and difficult-to-defend weapon was perfect for dealing with mortal enemies, but it was obviously unsuitable for martial arts duels, as it could easily kill the opponent!
Why did Master Luo Tong specifically bestow this particular magical artifact upon him, instead of other magical treasures?
"Does he want me to kill the Little Prince of Chishui when I challenge him?"
Ren Rulong frowned and thought, "No, no, no, that shouldn't be it! I only need to defeat the Little Prince of Chishui. What good would killing him do for the Great Xia Divine Martial Institute and the Great Xia Empire?"
"Besides, Instructor Luo Tong has no grudge against the Little Prince of Chishui, so there's no need for him to use such methods to harm him!"
"That's right! Perhaps Master Luo Tong didn't have any other magical artifacts more suitable to bestow upon me, only this long needle!"
"That should be it! After all, it's Supreme-Grade Profound Artifact; even Quasi-God experts wouldn't have many of these!"
"No matter what, the Little Prince of Chishui saved my life. I can challenge him and defeat him, but I absolutely cannot kill him during the challenge!"
Three days have passed.
That morning, Dongfang Yao came to get breakfast for Lin Heng.
She seemed to be in a good mood and was not affected by Ren Rulong's public confession.
"You haven't been here for a few days. You're a very incompetent maid!"
While eating breakfast, Lin Heng said, "If you keep going like this, I'll make you serve me a bath!"
"You're only four years old, do you think you can scare me with this?"
Dongfang Yao said nonchalantly, "I often see little boys running around naked in the palace! If you don't mind, I can serve you a bath right now! To be honest, I'd really like to see it!"
After saying that, Dongfang Yao raised her eyebrows at Lin Heng, looking very expectant.
