"Alright, quiet down. We'll begin the bloodline test now."
At this moment, an elderly man with a gaunt figure, a wrinkled face, and hawk-like eyes—who didn't look like a kind person—stood up and addressed the disciples below.
He then glanced indifferently at Hun Changqing but said nothing more.
Young people are impetuous and always have peculiar views on beautiful things.
However, as they grow older, they won't care too much about such things.
We elders used to be like that too, all handsome and dashing, but now they look fierce and menacing.
Although their strength allows them to maintain their youthful appearance
, most people don't really care.
At their level, only further advancement in strength or major clan plans can stir their minds; other things are unlikely to stir their emotions.
It's not that they've become indifferent to women or their appearance at this stage.
It's their status that matters. Even with their hideous faces, countless women would vie to offer themselves to them. So, does good looks really matter?
Soon, many disciples stepped forward, walking to a large, dark stone in front of the platform to have their bloodlines tested.
Bloodline testing is conducted periodically, and the results are recorded again. Generally, bloodlines don't change after birth.
However, this world is unpredictable; anything can happen.
Some disciples might encounter enemies on missions, suffer severe injuries, and their foundations become unstable, causing their bloodlines to decline. Others
might have fortuitous encounters that improve their bloodlines. These are all possibilities.
The simplest example is someone who performs a great service, and the Void Devouring Flame of the Devouring Spirit Clan helps them improve their bloodline quality.
Bloodlines are ultimately the most important thing for a Dou Di family, so they are recorded periodically to identify suitable individuals to allocate resources to.
"Hun Ice—Third-grade bloodline, eight-star Dou Ling." "Hun fire - No Rank, Two-Star Dou Ling"
"Hun Xiaoyuan - Sixth-Rank Bloodline, Seven-Star Dou Wang"
"Hun Bai - Eighth-Rank Bloodline, Seven-Star Dou Huang"
"Hun Feng - Divine-Rank Bloodline, Two-Star Dou Zong"
"Hun Yu - Ninth-Rank Bloodline, One-Star Dou Zong"
One after another, Hun Clan disciples stepped forward for testing. Since they already knew their bloodline levels, no one showed any extreme emotions.
The old man on the platform stood there expressionless, recording the results and calling out the names of those who came forward for testing.
"Hun Changqing, step forward for testing,"
a cold, emotionless voice came from the old man's mouth.
Hun Changqing slowly stepped forward, walked to the dark boulder, and drew a line between his left and right palms, leaving a bloodstain.
He dripped the blood into the groove in the middle of the boulder, and instantly the boulder emitted a faint, eerie light. The old man glanced at it indifferently, read
"Hun Changqing - No Rank, Eight-Star Dou Huang,"
and then silently recorded the results.
Hun Changqing shrugged, already knowing this; if someone possessed a high-grade bloodline, it would be a serious matter. He
then turned and stepped off the stage. The crowd below, due to Hun Changqing's good looks, already knew some of his information, so there was no mocking or sarcastic banter.
It's important to know that although Hun Changqing lacked bloodline power, his water-attribute combat skills were formidable.
Among the younger generation of the clan, his combat strength ranked among the top, and his cultivation was also exceptional.
Many disciples without bloodline power idolized Hun Changqing, learning from him, a situation some elders were happy to see.
