All the alien candidatesâ expressions changed entirely. They were filled with shock and disbelief.
âGreat Qian Empire!â
âIs it that Great Qian Empire?â
âYes. Thereâs only one Great Qian Empire in the vast universe.â The figure smiled gently when he saw everyoneâs expression.
âHow is that possible? A baron from the Great Qian Empire enjoys a noble and high status. Why will you come to this remote and underdeveloped planet?â Argus took a deep breath and asked. He still couldnât believe it.
âItâs not impossible. A million years ago, I was ordered to chase an escaped convict. I pursued him through multiple galaxies for three hundred years and finally killed him on this planet. However, I suffered heavy injuries and couldnât leave. In the end, I died here,â the figure spoke slowly. There was no emotion in his voice as if he wasnât talking about his death.
âChased him through multiple galaxies!â
âThree hundred years!â
Everyone was dumbstruck at the figureâs words. They could imagine how terrifying and intense this multi-galaxy battle was.
All the talents were mindblown. They couldnât find their voices for a long time.
The devil lords exchanged glances with one another at the side. They couldnât hide the bewilderment on their faces.
Even the powerful devil lords felt jittery in front of this indomitable presence. They felt a tinge of fear creeping up their hearts.
This figure was a formidable human martial warrior. Would he kill them when he saw them?
He might be just a floating soul in the air, but they didnât know if he possessed any incredible skills or methods.
âErm, excuse meâ¦â While everyone was lost in awe, a voice broke their chain of thoughts.
Everyone, including the figure, turned to look in the direction of the voice.
Wang Teng was raising his hand like a primary school student wanting to make a statement. His eyes were filled with the innocent desire for more knowledge.
Argus: â¦
Kathu: â¦
Biluo: â¦
The devil lords: â¦
The figure: â¦
âIâm sorry. I want to ask what the Great Qian Empire is. You all seem really astounded,â Wang Teng asked cautiously.
Silence.
An unnoticeable hint of frustration flashed past the figureâs face.
So who did he put on a show for just now?
Fortunately, the others knew how powerful the Great Qian Empire was. If they didnât, he would have felt awkward.
Extremely awkward!
Loggins frowned and said with contempt, âAn Earthling is indeed an Earthling. The Great Qian Empire is a dominant presence in the universe. How can you not know about it?â
Wang Teng glanced at him from the corner of his eyes. âAre you asking for a beating?â
âWhat!â Loggins glared at him.
Argus opened his mouth and interrupted them, explaining calmly, âThe Great Qian Empire is one of the few oldest high-tier civilizations in the universe.
âDo you understand what a high-tier civilization means?
âIt rules countless galaxies, including a thousand middle-tier civilizations in the universe. A middle-tier civilization rules a few thousand galaxies and a few hundred low-tier civilizations.
âThe Olant Federation is just a low-tier civilization. Yet, it controls the nine main galaxies. Every single galaxy has hundreds of thousands of life planets with different cultures and living beings on them.
âThe Milky Way your planet is in is one of the nine main galaxies controlled by the Olant Federation. Earth is just one of the most inconspicuous planets among the few hundred thousands of life planets in the Milky Way.
âNow, do you know what the Great Qian Empire is?
âEarth is worse than a speck of dust when compared to it!â
Argusâs voice was calm, but the disdain and contempt in it were apparent.
Calm and scornful!
Everyoneâs gaze gathered on Wang Tengâs face. They were looking at him with ridicule and waiting for a good show.
Wang Tengâs question showed how stupid and ignorant he was.
This guy from an underdeveloped planet was an idiot!
Biluo glanced at Wang Teng worriedly. This piece of news might be a huge blow to a normal person. Their perspective of the world might shatter, and it could leave an indelible mark on his heart.
After all, his birth planet was insignificant in front of the Great Qian Empire.
Not talking about a normal person, even the alien candidates couldnât accept it calmly.
They were fortunate to be born in the Olant Federation, so they had heard of this concept before. If they had received this piece of information suddenly, they might not be able to accept it either.
Argusâs intention wasnât pure. He was using this opportunity to cast a shadow on Wang Tengâs mind and create an obstacle on his martial arts path.
Maintaining a fearless attitude was essential for a martial warrior, especially one who was striving to reach a higher level. If they suffered psychological trauma, even if it was just a small one, it would be amplified in the future when they progressed further and become their Achilles heel.
Argus was attacking his mind!
However, after a moment of astonishment, Biluo saw Wang Teng giving a small smile. The expression on his face reverted to normal.
It was a composed expression!
At this moment, composure meant confidence!
This fellow is able to regain his composure so quickly. He didnât seem affected at all. It looks like I underestimated him. Biluo wondered to herself in surprise.
The other people noticed Wang Tengâs expression too. They were shocked and found it a pity.
Many alien candidates were fearful of Wang Tengâs talent. They were happy to use this chance to stimulate him. Unfortunately, he didnât fulfill their wish.
âWow, this Great Qian Empire is such a powerful presence!â Wang Teng suddenly exclaimed in surprise.
Silence.
Everyone was speechless. They found his performance a little exaggerated.
Fake!
Did he think that they were all stupid? Who would believe such a fake performance?
Wang Teng disregarded everyoneâs gaze and looked at the figure excitedly. âSenior, do you need a sidekick?â
âWhat does that mean?â the figure asked in confusion.
âTake me under your wings.â Wang Teng rubbed his hands and sniggered.
Everyone was shocked by Wang Tengâs shamelessness.
How could there be someone as shameless as him?
The figure glanced at Wang Teng helplessly. He had never seen someone with such thick skin. Coughing awkwardly, he replied, âIâm dead. I canât keep you under my wings.â
âYouâre dead?â Wang Teng appeared astounded. âBut youâre still here.â
âThis is just an image I left behind. I left a legacy in hopes that my successor will appear one day,â the figure explained.
