"What? That Lu Yuan was him? I was wondering why it sounded so familiar."
Raphael sized Lu Yuan up, then grinned. "Kid, not bad. You're so capable at such a young age. You're even stronger than I was back then. I have high hopes for you!"
Lu Yuan smiled in embarrassment. "The two seniors are too kind."
Raphael said,
"But… you can't rely too much on external things. The most important thing is still your own strength."
"Junior understands."
Lu Yuan nodded his head seriously.
Li Xinghai looked at Lu Yuan with a smile and said,
"Old monster White Devil, you don't have to worry about that. This kid awakened normally and was able to inscribe a Lord-tier gene at rank two. He's really pursuing his own strength. I'm not the kind of person who relies on external things."
"Eh? A level two overlord gene? Not bad, kid."
Hearing this, Raphael looked at Lu Yuan in surprise.
He sighed and said, "in the past, I was also an ordinary awakened. When I was level two, I had only engraved the leader gene. I worked hard step by step and risked my life to get to where I am now. If you focus on yourself, you should be able to go further than me. Although many inheritors had a higher starting point, they didn't have the courage to pursue higher levels of genes. In the end, they were lost in the crowd. The starting point doesn't mean anything. As long as you have the talent and the perseverance, you can also reach the peak."
Perhaps it was because they were both ordinary awakeners, Raphael had a better impression of Lu Yuan.
Lu Yuan nodded with a serious look. "Thank you for your guidance, senior."
Even though he was different from this senior.
This senior had risked the danger of being devoured to inscribe even stronger genes and walked up to the position of Battle Emperor step by step. It could be said that every step was filled with trepidation.
However, he only needed to evolve.
In the end, he only spent spiritual crystals, so the difficulty level was much lower than that of this senior.
This was precisely why Lu Yuan was very respectful of this expert who could advance to the battle emperor level through a normal awakening.
On the side, Li Xinghai watched with a smile.
He had asked Lu Yuan to come over partly because he wanted to see Lu Yuan.
After all, the most talented member of his family, Li Qinghe, talked about Lu Yuan every day. He was naturally curious.
A part of the reason was that he hoped to use Raphael's deeds to inspire Lu Yuan.
After all, both of them were ordinary awakeners.
Although Lu Yuan was now stronger than Raphael back in the day, and he was able to record Lord-grade genes at stage two, the later stages of inscribing King-grade, Emperor-grade, and even Overlord-grade genes were the most difficult.
The remnant will in these genes far exceeded the genes below king class.
This was also the reason why there were so many fourth level battle supremes, but the number of King level and above experts was decreasing.
Now, it seemed that the effect was not bad.
Lu Yuan obviously took it in.
Li Xinghai was very pleased.
He said with a smile,
"Hmm, you're not bad. This girl Qinghe is really lucky to be able to meet a genius like you on a mission."
"Senior battle emperor, you're too kind," Lu Yuan said, a little embarrassed.
Li Xinghai slightly waved his hand and said,
"Qinghe calls me old master. You're the younger brother that Qinghe brought back, so you can also call me old master."
Lu Yuan was stunned for a moment, then he smiled and said,
"Old man."
Raphael, who was at the side, also laughed. "It's rare to meet such a talented junior. If you have any problems in the future, you can look for this old man."
"I understand. Thank you, old Raphael."
It was wonderful to suddenly have two Battle Emperor level backers.
My sister Qinghe is still the best.
Oh, Amy was good, and old master Adams was good to him.
Lu Yuan was thinking about random things.
After that, Li Xinghai and Raphael chatted with Lu Yuan for a while. Li Qinghe then left with Lu Yuan, not disturbing the two old men's drinking.
