"Hong, Thunder God Thunder Light King, would you like me to be your teacher?"

As Hong and Thunder God Shen were secretly speculating and anticipating, Li Jing, who was sitting in the main seat in front of them, spoke.

Even someone as mentally strong as Hong He and Thunder God couldn't help but widen their eyes and breathe slightly faster after hearing Li Jing's words.

Having been in the Ganwu Secret Region for some time, through their daily cultivation and exposure to the world, they have gained a general understanding of the well-known and powerful figures within the Ganwu Universe Country.

The most well-known of these are the Three Hundred Kings and Marquises.

Among the Three Hundred Kings and Marquises, Thunder Light King's strength was among the most terrifying few.

There are even rumors that he could kill one of the Three Hundred Kings and Marquises and marquises with a single full-force attack.

Although it's difficult to verify the truth of the matter given their strength and status, the existence of such rumors suggests they are not entirely unfounded, indicating that Thunder Light King's strength is undoubtedly extremely powerful.

Can such a strong person truly become their teacher?

Although their performance was considered quite good among the Universe Level members of the Ganwu Secret Region.

However, if we extend the timeline, those Immortal who have existed for so long have seen countless geniuses who are comparable to or even surpass them.

Of these, very few were actually accepted as disciples.

If ordinary powerful individuals are like this, then the Thunder Light King is even more so.

Although Li Jing has a lot of influence, it's hard to say whether he's influential in this regard.

"Thunder God, hurry up and agree! That's the Thunder Light King! Back when my master, World Lord Kabu, was still alive, he used all his connections, but he still couldn't get an audience with someone of that level."

"Li Jing's willingness to ask Thunder Light King to accept you two as disciples is an immense opportunity, even greater than joining the Ganwu Secret Region."

What are you still hesitating about?

In the consciousness space, the Intelligent Life Old Man Mist, which Thunder God obtained in the World within a World, was so anxious that he was blowing his beard and glaring, jumping up and down, wishing he could take the initiative and agree on Thunder God's behalf.

Thunder God completely ignored the Old Man Mist jumping around, and exchanged a knowing glance with the Hong brothers, both of them seeing the intention and a hint of hesitation in each other's eyes.

"What? Do you think Thunder Light King is too weak and unqualified to be your teacher?"

Seemingly sensing their dilemma, Li Jing chuckled.

"No, Senior Thunder Light King is renowned and powerful, how could we dare to look down on him? It's just that our talents Pingping, and Senior Thunder Light King may not be willing to accept us."

Hong and Thunder God honestly expressed their concerns.

"It's alright. Just send an email to Thunder Light King later, saying that I introduced you, and say some nice things, explaining your intention to become his disciples. He will accept you."

Li Jing waved his hand casually.

Elsewhere, Li Jing couldn't guarantee how effective his influence would be.

But within the small territory of the Ganwu Universe Country, no one dares to disregard his reputation or his words.

Thunder Light King sounds impressive, but he's just a minor Peak Marquis Immortal. You can't even see him normally.

Now that he intends to introduce Hong and Thunder God to him as disciples, he is undoubtedly extending an olive branch.

If the other party is smart enough, they will not only take in Hong and Thunder God, but they will also treat them with more care than they would any of his other disciples.

Hong and Thunder God served as the communication bridge between Thunder Light King and Li Jing.

Of course, it's understandable if the other party doesn't accept Hong and Thunder God.

Li Jing wasn't a member of Hunyuan Unit, so he couldn't please everyone, but he couldn't guarantee what would happen next.

For example, the kind of mischief that the Ganwu doctor gives you until you die.

All they need to do is send an email; Li Jing doesn't even need to personally take them to greet Thunder Light King.

Hearing Li Jing's confident tone, Hong and Thunder God were slightly startled.

Li Jing's influence is so great?

Even if he is a disciple personally taught by the Ganwu Country Lord, even if he was the champion of the previous Genius Battle.

It's hardly reasonable for someone as powerful as Thunder Light King, who is considered extremely powerful even among Immortal, to kneel and fawn like this.

Li Jing was far more terrifying than the information they had gathered!

But they knew absolutely nothing about it!

Both were geniuses from Earth. Back when they led humanity through the monster era, fighting desperately against the Devouring Beast, Li Jing wasn't even a martial artist yet.

Now they've already moved so far ahead of them that they don't even seem to have the right to be out of their sight.

Even the two greatest opportunities in the universe—joining the Ganwu Secret Region and becoming Lei Thunder Light King's apprentice—were arranged by Li Jing.

Suppressing their complicated thoughts, the two thanked Li Jing.

Leaving aside the matter of becoming an apprentice for now, Li Jing flipped his hand and took out two small World Ring: "These two World Ring contain..."

"These are some cultivation resources needed for the Universe Level, including those required for later Domain Lord Level. This one is for you, Hong, and this one is for you, Thunder God. Consider it a small personal donation from me."

"By the way, besides the cultivation resources at the Universe Level and Domain Lord Level, the World Ring also contains resources for ordinary people, as well as those at the Apprentice Level and Planetary Level."

"Take some time to return to Earth and hand over these resources to the Huaxia government, letting them allocate them and promote the overall evolution of Earthling."

"Furthermore, please take special care of Instructor Jiang Nian, Chief Instructor Wu Tong, Supervisor Zhuge, and others with whom I had a good relationship during my humble beginnings."

"If possible, make a detour to Qiu Long Star. There used to be a female hotel receptionist from the Winged Human Race there, though she probably isn't anymore. Try asking the Domain Lord who owns Qiu Long Star; you might be able to find her."

"Once you find them, give them some feedback, just the right amount, to avoid attracting unnecessary covetousness."

Li Jing, who was not keen on making the trip himself, entrusted Hong and Thunder God with the matter of returning to Earth and the Chong Long Star.

I believe the two of them will take his instructions seriously and carry them out.

He himself, after killing Panxi when he had some free time, went back to Chaos City.

Looking back, I've pretty much done everything I needed to do back in the Ganwu Secret Region, it's time to leave.

Hong and Thunder God solemnly accepted the World Ring from Li Jing, and promised to follow his instructions.

Jing instructed them to complete the task.

They wholeheartedly support Li Jing's plan and idea of enabling the overall evolution of Earth Humans.

A race cannot have just a few top experts; only by continuously producing a core force can it truly stand firm in the universe and avoid becoming a rootless duckweed.

After leaving Li Jing's palace, the two did not separate, but went together to Hong's Four-Leaf Academy Manor.

Back on their own turf, the two exchanged a glance, both seeing a hint of relief in each other's eyes.

As time went on, the aura emanating from Li Jing, a blend of power and strength, grew ever stronger.

Both of them were somewhat reserved in front of Li Jing, especially now that their fates were completely in Li Jing's hands.

"Big brother, Li Jing is getting stronger and stronger. Just now in his palace, I felt like he could crush the two of us at any moment," Thunder God said with a somewhat exaggerated expression.

Hong glanced at him indifferently. "Don't flatter yourself. Even before, he could have crushed both of us with a single blow. Now, it's probably just a matter of a breath."

"Let's think about how to send an email to Senior Thunder Light King."

Thunder God nodded solemnly. "Brother, you're right, but is it really possible to do it all by sending an email?"

"Li Jing didn't even need to greet Senior Thunder Light King?"

"That's way too much!"

"I don't know, let's post it first. Li Jing wouldn't be making baseless accusations; even if Thunder Light King were to refuse, he would still acknowledge us two as his disciples."

"But how much we learn depends on ourselves. We need to strive for excellence and not embarrass Li Jing."

"Understood, brother!" Thunder God nodded.
