Even little Yaya who sat lazily on Tang Li Xue's shoulder suddenly became more attentive in great curiosity.

Bingbing, Silly Fox, and Princess Yan Fei might be very surprised when Instructor Mei Lan mentioned that the strongest race in the current era was the Human Race, but the one who was the most shocked was definitely Tang Li Xue.

From so many pieces of information that Tang Li Xue had already obtained previously, there was no doubt that the Undead Race should be the most powerful and dreadful race among the three.

The Human Race and Beast Race who were extremely hostile to each other were forced to team up in order to fight against the Undead Race.

Despite that, they could only barely hold out against the Undead Race.

So, how could Instructor Mei Lan say that the strongest race in this era was actually the Human Race?!

That clearly did not make any sense at all for Tang Li Xue...

Tang Li Xue stared at Instructor Mei Lan in disbelief and puzzlement.

Instructor Mei Lan could sense Tang Li Xue's confusion from her gaze.

Instructor Mei Lan smiled and shook her head in irony while continuing to ask her students:

"I know what you are all thinking. That truth must be very hard for you to believe, but let me ask you something extremely crucial first. In your opinion, what actually determines the strength of the entire race?

"

Before waiting for her students to answer it, Instructor Mei Lan stood up while muttering again:

"The number of armies? Geniuses? Heaven's Favored Child? Weapon? Technology? Intelligence? Information?

"

Instructor Mei Lan walked back and forth in front of her students before she stopped and stared at her students before saying:

"None of those truly matters. It might sound hilarious, but what truly determines the strength of the entire race is actually only the raw strength...

"

"The most powerful individual could become the pillar to support and hold the sky above the entire race alone.

"

"With absolute strength, they can suppress everything with only their will.

"

"The ones who stood at the pinnacle in our Immortal World and hold our entire sky are called... Twelve Sovereign Gods of the Immortal World.

"

Instructor Mei Lan stopped talking to let her students digest her words.

Tang Li Xue, Bingbing, Silly Fox, Yaya, and Princess Yan Fei dropped their jaws in shock.

They became entirely speechless at Instructor Mei Lan's words.

If the one who said that was someone else, they might have already laughed at them and accused them of telling a delusional story.

Instructor Mei Lan sat back on the teacher's seat and took a sip of her tea to moisten her parched throat before she continued to explain:

"Sovereign God is the level way above Spirit Beast.

"

"Each realm or world could only have a limited number of Sovereign Gods because they are simply too powerful. So, the Profound Law of every realm or world could only allow a certain number of creatures to reach Sovereign Gods.

"

"The small and weaker realms can only have one or two, while some bigger and stronger worlds might be able to have more.

"

"Our Immortal World is an extremely powerful one among them, so it has twelve Sovereign Gods in total.

"

"I will not tell you further about the Sovereign Gods for now since that level is still too far from you.

"

"But I will tell you the situation from the previous era, so you can grasp the overall situation better.

"

"In the previous era, our Beast Race had three Beast Gods, Human Race had three Human Gods, and Undead Race had six Undead Gods.

"

"From this number of Sovereign Gods, you can easily tell that the strongest race in the previous era should be the Undead Race.

"

"That era lasted for hundreds of thousands of years... It even reached the point that our Beast Race and Human Race must work together in order to barely resist the pressure from the Undead Race.

"

"Until something completely out of everyone's expectation happened...

"

Instructor Mei Lan stopped her speech as she shook her head with an expression filled with irony.

Looking at Instructor Mei Lan's face, she clearly did not want to tell this story about the glory of the Human Race, but there was no doubt that she had finally reached the most crucial part of her story.

In fact, this story might also be the main reason why Instructor Mei Lan was so wary of Elder Yang, and why she schemed to kill him before.

The curiosity of Tang Li Xue, Yaya, and the others had reached its peak, so they hastily urged Instructor Mei Lan.

"Then what is happening, Instructor Lan? Since there could only be twelve Sovereign Gods in the Immortal World, does it mean the Human Race already has more Sovereign Gods than our Beast Race and Undead Race together right now?

" Tang Li Xue asked.

"Don't tell me that those despicable humans stabbed us in the back and teamed up with the Undead Race instead?!

" Bingbing muttered coldly.

"That should be impossible. No matter how stupid the Human Race is, they should know that working with the Undead Race would not bring them any merit.

" Silly Fox finally said something smart at this time.

Instructor Mei Lan took a deep breath and uttered again:

"All right, calm down everyone~! Next, I will begin to tell you about the story that might be able to motivate you all.

"

"In a certain human cultivator family, there was an orphan human boy.

"

"His parents had already sacrificed their lives in order to protect the cultivator family from enemies. However, the family not only treated the boy badly but even humiliated and alienated him.

"

"At first, that boy was only a mediocre person. Without cultivation resources and cultivation techniques from his family, he crawled up slowly from the bottom and finally managed to join a cultivator sect as a handyman disciple with his own hard work.

"

"With his unremarkable talent, he only practiced both mediocre sword technique and cultivation technique again and again every day until he grew up. He managed to create his own unique sword techniques and cultivation technique that suited him the best, and he soared rapidly because of it.

"

"Then he returned dazzlingly and paid back everyone who had humiliated him from his cultivation family before.

"

"Of course, the patriarch and the elders from the cultivation family resented him very much for it, and they even made many schemes to kill him.

"

"Unfortunately, their effort was futile. Not only did the boy grow and become even stronger after that, but he even came to slaughter all of them later on.

"

"After that, his sect said the boy was too evil and murderous, so they announced to expel the demon boy instead, and they would put a high bounty on his head.

"

"But that was actually the plan of Saint Child and his backers from that sect because he was afraid of that boy's talent. The Saint Child was afraid that the boy would threaten his position, so he did it.

"

"Under the temptation of that high bounty, the boy was hunted by so many strong cultivators.

"

"The boy was heavily injured by them, but he managed to barely escape from their chase. However, he was forced to enter the territory of the Undead Race in order to save his own life at that time.

"

"Inside the Undead Race's territory, there were countless powerful undead creatures. That boy would definitely constantly be hunted by so many undead creatures inside the Undead Race's territory, so everyone thought he would surely die sooner or later.

"

"Who knew that after so many years, that boy actually grew until he could finally slay an Undead Sovereign God!

"

"He reached the sky in one step and replaced the Undead Sovereign God he just killed, then he became the fourth Human Sovereign God!

"

"The first thing he did after he became the fourth Human Sovereign God was to flatten all the sects and humans who dared to hunt him before.

"

"The blood flowed like a river. So many human cultivator corpses scattered everywhere.

"

"It immediately alarmed the other Sovereign Gods.

"

"His cruel action angered the other three Human Sovereign Gods, while Beast Sovereign Gods and Undead Sovereign Gods also took this chance to attack him, so they could eliminate the Human Race's new Sovereign God.

"

"But against so many Sovereign Gods at once, the boy was not afraid.

"

"He raised his sword and fought fiercely against all of them without any fear.

"

"In the end, the boy managed to repel all of the Sovereign Gods ALONE!

"

"He was crowned as the strongest Sovereign God in the current era, the Tyrant Sovereign God.

"

"Even the other Sovereign Gods would rather choose to avoid his sharp edge every time they meet him.

"

Instructor Mei Lan chuckled and asked:

"It is a truly inspiring story, isn't it?

"

"Fortunately for us, the Tyrant Sovereign God does not have any feelings for the Human Race and even hated them very much because of his previous experience, so he never made any move to help the Human Race so far.

"

"If the Tyrant Sovereign God was on the Human Race's side, then the Human Race should be the current strongest race in the entire Immortal World. Even our Beast Race and Undead Race must bow our heads to the Human Race if that really happens.

"

Instructor Mei Lan concluded her story as she checked her three students' reactions.

Bingbing and Silly Fox showed a yearning expression as if they really wanted to replace the Tyrant Sovereign God and become the strongest one in the Immortal World.

But Tang Li Xue's expression was quite strange, and Instructor Mei Lan could not read what she thought at all.

'What the heck?! Is that boy an MC from a certain novel or something?!' Tang Li Xue thought in amazement.
