Chapter 1739: Chapter 2: Master Acknowledgment Gift Pack

"Teaching on behalf?" Zhao Xing caught the keyword in Guluohe’s words and was momentarily stunned.

Guluohe was already a demigod, according to Zhao Xing’s own experience.

A demigod is an emperor on the path to breaking into the God Realm.

It’s just that the Reincarnation Emperor is still strengthening their True Spirit, unable to find a breakthrough, thus having to continue cultivating in the direction of ’strengthening the True Spirit.’

A demigod, on the other hand, has found their own path. Although it’s unknown if this path is viable, compared to an emperor, a demigod’s path moves forward whereas the emperor’s is still going in circles.

"Although my performance in the final assessment was not bad, there are many talents more outstanding than me. It’s unlikely for Guluohe to accept me, but now saying this... it seems Qing Yu Zi’s influence is at play."

Even Meng Wu could retain memories, so it’s only natural demigod Guluohe would also be privy to such knowledge.

Guiding me is likely part of the transaction between Qing Yu Zi and the empire.

"I am willing." Zhao Xing quickly responded.

Initially, he didn’t consider Guluohe as an option. But since Old Qing had recommended it, naturally Guluohe was better!

The only downside was that Guluohe was only teaching on behalf, guiding rather than genuinely accepting as a disciple, which meant Guluohe wouldn’t be deeply involved with him.

This meant he undertook Old Qing’s cause and effect, not his own.

"Follow me." Guluohe spoke with a neutral expression, his words devoid of emotional fluctuations.

As Zhao Xing guessed, he regarded the teaching matter as mere work, devoid of personal emotions.

....

The apprenticeship ceremony didn’t last long. In Seaweed City, the talents soon found their respective teachers and prepared to embark on a new phase.

However, after the ceremony concluded, a piece of news stirred the talents.

"Damn, did a demigod accept a disciple at this Primordial Conference?"

"Guluohe, he’s known as the strongest demigod Guluohe, actually took on a disciple."

"The God Realm seldom involves itself in mundane affairs, even in major ancient country wars they might not appear, usually only emerging in racial conflicts. A demigod is the mightiest one we could encounter in our lifetime."

"Demigod powerhouses are rare. It’s been 250,000 years in the Primordial Realm without a demigod accepting disciples, let alone the strongest demigod Guluohe... Even when the Minister of Agriculture accepted disciples, the grandest scene was merely seventy-two emperors showing up."

"Whom did Guluohe accept? Was it Tuoson?"

"No, I heard it was Zhao Xing, a Minister of Agriculture from the Beihai Star System."

"Oh? Not one of the Six Saint Sons, Tuoson, but rather someone else?"

"What Six Saint Sons, that’s just an external term, the Primordial Realm doesn’t use such expressions."

"I wonder what the underlying story is, such a fortunate guy."

"Truly envious."

The news of Guluohe accepting a disciple spread, bringing Zhao Xing immense fame.

Previously, he was well-known among the talents in the Minister of Agriculture, but now all participants of the Primordial Conference heard of him!

Because Guluohe accepted only Zhao Xing!

However, whom Guluohe wanted to accept was his freedom. The Primordial Realm opens every three thousand years, and only under special circumstances would a demigod come out to accept disciples.

Otherwise, it would be the Reincarnation Emperor with more time and energy who would step in.

....

Beihai Star System, Lord Mansion.

"What? Zhao Xing apprenticed under Guluohe?"

Beihai Lord Yang Lin was stunned upon hearing the report from Qiao Song.

"You must be joking?"

Zhao Xing stopped at the second match of the finals, ranking merely in the top 80, yet Guluohe was the strongest demigod.

Even to the Beihai Lord, an elite Reincarnator, Guluohe was someone to look up to.

Yet he accepted Zhao Xing as a disciple?

"Lord, it is true, the Primordial Conference has ended, and the official materials have been sent to the major star administrative districts of the empire."

The Beihai Lord immediately verified and then confirmed that Zhao Xing was indeed accepted by Guluohe.

"Hahaha, it is indeed so."

Yang Lin couldn’t help but burst into laughter.

During the third round, he merely thought Zhao Xing had a good chance of entering the Primordial Realm.

Waiting for Zhao Xing to grow and repay his homeland and previous favors would take a long time.

After all, Zhao Xing was now only at the Great Divine Ability Realm, to be truly impactful would require reaching the Life and Death Dao Domain Realm to cash in on this favor.

But now that Zhao Xing had apprenticed under Guluohe, things were different.

It probably wouldn’t take long for Zhao Xing to bring returns to the Beihai Star System!

Turning a long-term investment into a short-term one, the Beihai Lord was naturally pleased.

"In the future, the Beihai Star System will surely have a period of rapid development, and I will benefit as well."

The Beihai Lord was very happy and so he waved his hand: "Come, prepare the celebration banquet!"

"Invite the key figures from Fengdu Boundary Star and the Great Zhou Dynasty."

"Zhao Xing’s territory Sky Blue Star is under construction, add a few more funds to elevate the construction standards to a higher and more complete level."

"And also..."

On this day, the Beihai Lord issued many orders, most of which revolved around Zhao Xing.

The core principle was singular: Even though Zhao Xing couldn’t return, whenever he inquired, it must be ensured he feels the care from home!

Beihai Star System, Wuye Constellation, Fengdu Boundary Star.

At this moment, the entire Great Zhou was also informed of the official news, learning of Zhao Xing’s successful passage through the Primordial Realm’s assessment and becoming an apprentice to a demigod.

"I originally thought King Taihe Liu Tianning was impressive, apprenticing under Lord Qianhua, but didn’t expect the Grand Minister of Agriculture to be even more astonishing to have attracted a demigod as a mentor!"
