Chapter 109 Apprenticeship
"Master Shi Heng is here!"
Luo Li was startled, turned around to look, and raised her head slightly, she saw a young man in a white and blue robe standing on the four big characters of Tianyuan Academy's gate.
The breeze swayed, the clothes fluttered, and in the flying sand, Luo Li and Shi Heng looked at each other.
The young man stood on a high place and saw Luo Li. Amid the exclamations of the crowd, he stepped on the ground and slowly flew towards Luo Li.
Luo Li narrowed her eyes and opened her cherry lips slightly, "Shi Heng..."
The young man's face was as bright as the moon, his aura was restrained, and his hair moved slightly. He landed in front of Luo Li and said in a gentle voice, "Luo Li..."
Just looking at Shi Heng's face, no one can connect this young face with the many halos around him.
The surroundings immediately erupted in a commotion again, "She recognizes Master Shi Heng?!"
"Oh my god, this network of contacts is too wide!"
"Isn't it! She has a very good relationship with His Majesty the Emperor Mo!"
"Comparison is the thief of joy! I know both of them, but we don't know each other."
Luo Li's eyes were deep, and she stood with her hands behind her back, observing the strongest man on the continent calmly.
Shi Heng was also observing Luo Li.
For a moment, neither of them spoke.
Luo Yuanxiu was slightly stunned, then took two steps forward, clasped his fists and bowed, "Master Shi Heng."
Luo Qinghuai and Luo Qingzhu followed closely behind, "Master Shiheng."
Shi Heng is the former president of Tianyuan College, and he is still the honorary president and the mentor of the main spiritual master college and the weapon refining college. They have all been taught by Shi Heng to some extent.
Shi Heng said gently, "No need to bow."
The somewhat stagnant atmosphere suddenly dissipated. Shi Heng, the strongest man on the continent, not only did not feel oppressive, but instead made people feel as if he were bathed in a spring breeze.
Especially since it is rumored that Shi Heng had a bad experience when he was young, but now he still has a feeling of tolerance for everything, which is really amazing.
He looked at the three young men of the Luo family with admiration, "They are truly young geniuses."
The three people who were praised were all very excited. This was Shi Heng!
Shi Heng praised them!
The three of them blushed slightly, even Luo Yuanxiu was no exception, "Thank...thank you so much for the compliment, Teacher Shi Heng!"
Luo Li narrowed her eyes slightly, "Master Shi Heng?"
Shi Heng turned his gaze back to Luo Li, "Luo Qi's daughter?"
Luo Li raised her eyebrows, her face calm, "My father is Luo Qi."
Shi Heng calmly looked at the girl in front of him. He opened his mouth and said with a smile, "Your father and I are good friends. You can call me Uncle Shi."
Luo Li paused, a little surprised, "Are you a good friend of my father?"
Shi Heng had a warm smile on his face, "That's right."
Luo Li was shocked. Her father and Shi Heng were actually good friends!
It's no wonder Luo Li was surprised. After all, although Shi Heng looked only in his twenties, he was actually 215 years old this year.
The reason why he looks so young is not because he used any elixir to become younger, but because he broke through to the Spiritual Sect when he was 28 years old, and his appearance has remained at the age of 28 ever since.
Moreover, Shi Heng has been famous for a long time. Thirty years ago, Shi Heng was already a Half-Step God King, the strongest man in the continent, and the dean of Tianyuan Academy.
Over the years, countless strong men have attempted to challenge Shi Heng's position, but were easily beaten back.
It is said that the strongest man in the neighboring Caesar Empire has not yet grown back the teeth that were knocked out!
Shi Heng smiled and said, "Your father said that you might come to Tianyuan College. I didn't expect that you would actually come."
He looked at the freshmen who had been looking over here and said with a smile, "Don't worry about me. I hope everyone can successfully enroll in Tianyuan College."
After saying that, he pressed his hand and said to Luo Li and the others, "Follow me."
Luo Li suppressed the words on her lips and followed Shi Heng with Luo Yuanxiu and the other two.
The four of them followed Shi Heng into Tianyuan College. After turning several corners, they arrived in front of a small courtyard.
Shi Heng opened the gate and walked in. Standing in the yard, he smiled gently and said, "No one will disturb us if we come here."
Luo Li pursed her lips and spoke directly, "Master Shi Heng, my father and you are good friends. Do you know where my father went after leaving Tianyuan Continent? Did he go directly to the gods?"
Shi Heng's eyes were soft and he shook his head gently, "I'm sorry, I can't tell you anything about your father's whereabouts until you break through to the God level."
Luo Li never expected this answer. She frowned slightly and asked, "Why?"
Shi Heng's eyes curved up, as if he was smiling. "Well... you'll have to ask your father yourself. After all, he didn't tell me why. I was just keeping my promise to my old friend."
Luo Li was silent for a moment, then muttered, "He really knows how to give me a hard time. God level..."
Shi Heng's face was calm as he said calmly, "Although the Divine Rank is far away, it is not out of reach.
Although I have been at the Half-Step Divine King level for a hundred years, I still cannot find the opportunity to break through. It is simply because I have a knot in my heart, and if I can't break it, I can't step into the Divine Level."
He paused after he finished speaking, "Besides, there are powerful god-level beings on the continent."
Luo Li was stunned. "There are God-level beings on the continent?"
She had always believed that it was the dimensional barrier of the Tianyuan Continent that prevented people from breaking through to the divine rank. After all, even the gods' descendants would be suppressed to the half-step divine king level when they came to the continent.
Shi Heng's voice sank slightly, and he looked towards the direction of Beiming Cangyuan, which was far away in the northernmost part of the continent. "Yes, that man is the Flame Lord of Cangyan Sea, Youming. He is not just a simple god-level, but a spiritual master of the Divine Emperor level.
And he is also very young, the previous Flame Lord is only a hundred years old."
Luo Li gasped, and Luo Yuanxiu and the other two widened their eyes. "God, Emperor?! The Flame Master of the Blue Flame Sea is actually a God Emperor?!"
The divine ranks are divided into God King, God Emperor, God Zong, and God Emperor. Lord Yan of the Cangyan Sea broke through to become God Emperor in the Tianyuan Continent, which shows how powerful his strength and talent are.
Luo Yuanxiu couldn't believe it. "Although there have been rumors that the Flame Lord had already broken through to the God level, I haven't seen it with my own eyes. I didn't expect that he would actually be a God Emperor!"
Luo Qinghuai and Luo Qingzhu were also shocked. "It's really shocking!"
Shi Heng laughed and continued, "Although Half-Step Divine Kings are rare on the continent, I'm not the only one. From what I know, there are more than a dozen, but most of them live in seclusion and rarely show up on the continent."
Luo Li touched her chin with one hand, "I always thought there was a continental barrier that prevented people from breaking through. After all, even the gods would be suppressed if they came here."
Shi Heng obviously didn't expect Luo Li to know so much. He raised his eyebrows slightly and said, "Indeed, almost fifty years ago, it was indeed like that. All those who descended would be suppressed to the level of Half-Step Divine King."
Luo Li grasped the key information, "Fifty years ago? Could it be that there has been a problem with the continental barrier in recent years?"
Shi Heng nodded, his expression unusually solemn. "That's right. Especially in recent years, the barrier on the continent has begun to thin, but the concentration of spiritual energy has been increasing. We don't know whether this change is good or bad."
Luo Li narrowed her eyes and suddenly thought of the weird Si Bai. Could it be related?
She shook her head, perhaps she was overthinking it.
Shi Heng looked at the pensive Luo Li and suddenly spoke gently, "Luo Li, are you willing to take me as your master?"
Luo Li came back to her senses and raised her eyebrows slightly. Shi Heng was a divine fire weapon refiner, and it was even said that he had refined a super divine weapon.
At the same time, as the strongest man in the continent, he is also a peerless master who is half a step away from becoming a god king, and is only a step away from the god level.
She definitely didn't lose, but...
Luo Li's face was indifferent. "Master Shi Heng, may I ask why you suddenly want me to become your disciple?"
This is the first time they've met, right?
Besides, this change of topic is too abrupt.
Why did you change your order and become my apprentice?
Shi Heng blinked and smiled slightly, "Maybe it's because I feel like I've known you for a long time?"
