Chapter 219: Chapter 219 Activation of Bloodline

The bloodline activation ceremony officially began, and a tester stood in front of the Stele with a list of participants in hand. The students called upon had to place one hand on the Stele, sense the elemental energy within their body, and activate their bloodline.

”I heard that only those of us with noble bloodlines have the chance to activate our bloodline. You, a wild brat from who knows where, shouldn’t waste your feelings here and save yourself the embarrassment of failing later,” Zhou Ming coldly said behind Lin Chen.

Zhou Jun was Zhou Ming’s cousin, and the two had a good relationship, often going to the bars together to pick up girls and had even engaged in a threesome. Seeing his buddy beaten so badly, he naturally felt indignant.

Lin Chen glanced at Zhou Ming, ”Noble, heh. I just turned one of your nobles into a pig-headed fool. Do you want to try it too?”

Zhou Ming’s face slightly changed as he sneered, ”Hmph, just wait. Once grandfather activates his bloodline, I’ll crush you, you lowly creature.”

”Brother, don’t bother with such arrogant fools. The way you slapped him was truly satisfying,” a young man named Hao Lin whispered to Lin Chen at that moment.

Hao Lin came from a lesser family and had always disliked the arrogant and domineering demeanor of these big clan scions. Lin Chen’s actions had just vented the resentments of those from smaller families.

Lin Chen nodded at Hao Lin and no longer paid any attention to Zhou Ming.

He was also a bit apprehensive inside, having heard from Bing Ling that Bai Ling had already activated the water attribute, and was now even capable of unleashing ice. If he couldn’t activate his bloodline, the three-year agreement would be nothing but a joke, and he would have no chance of success.

”System, can you determine which elemental bloodline I will activate?” Lin Chen suddenly remembered the heaven-defying popularity system.

”That depends on each person’s destiny, anything is possible.”

Damn, Lin Chen almost cursed out loud. Last time, the System had refused to help; it hadn’t given him missions for a long time and now it offered this useless answer. Can’t you just play along?

As if knowing what Lin Chen was thinking, the System continued, ”I didn’t save you last time because I knew you wouldn’t be in danger. As for the mission, you’ll soon receive a big surprise.”

”Come on, can’t you just tell me what the surprise is now?”

”No!” The System’s answer was firm and decisive.

”Zhou Ming!” As Lin Chen was communicating with the System, the tester’s cold voice rang out.

Zhou Ming stepped out of the line behind Lin Chen.

”He is the Zhou Ming who’s ranked first on the Disciple Leaderboard!”

”Yeah, I’ve heard he’s the chosen successor of the Zhou family and has been training in the North Sea since he was a child.”

”The North Sea? He trained there? That’s so impressive.”

”So handsome, if only I could be his girlfriend!”

As soon as Zhou Ming stepped out, a buzzing of whispers followed. He was very popular in the Disciple circles, and many girls regarded him as their prince charming.

Wearing a smug smile, Zhou Ming held his head high, proud, walking to the testing platform amidst the exclamations and praises of the onlookers.

”Zhou Ming, you’ve been training in the North Sea since you were a child,” the tester said to Zhou Ming with a smile.

In his mind, Zhou Ming was sure to be a formidable figure in the future, so he naturally did not dare to treat such a potential genius carelessly.

”Mhm,” Zhou Ming nodded.

”Place your hand on the testing stone then. I hope you successfully activate the Zhou family’s water attribute.”

The Zhou family’s history was filled with powerful figures all possessing the water attribute, and having grown up in the North Sea, Zhou Ming had a good chance of activating this attribute.

Of course, this was not absolute. If the opportunity was insufficient, he might not be able to activate the water element within his body, which would lead to losing the family’s attention and becoming an abandoned piece.

Therefore, in the big clans, whether or not one could activate their bloodline would become an indicator of one’s status within the family.

Although Zhou Ming’s face wore a confident smile, his heart was still somewhat uneasy, and the hand he placed on the Stele trembled slightly.

”Don’t be nervous, focus and activate your bloodline,” the tester beside him reminded.

Zhou Ming closed his eyes, and a faint Spiritual Energy from his palm flowed into the testing stone.

Everyone was shocked by the scene before them as they saw Spiritual Energy surge around Zhou Ming. From his palm, strands of water spread out, flowing into the grooves of the Stele, filling up half of it in an instant.

”Indeed, he has activated the water attribute.”

”As expected of Zhou Ming!”

Cheers erupted from the crowd, and since Zhou Ming was the first to be tested, many people were witnessing the activation of bloodline for the first time, so they were particularly excited.

Zhou Ming opened his eyes, a smug expression on his face. His gaze swept across the crowd and finally settled on Lin Chen.

Having activated his bloodline and possessing the water attribute, he would surely become a key figure supported by the Zhou family. Dealing with Lin Chen, a lowly nobody from the bottom of society, would be as easy as crushing an insect.

”Not bad, you managed to fill half of the groove with water, indicating a very high purity of your element. Congratulations, Young Master Zhou Ming,” the tester nodded, full of praise.

”Congratulations to the Clan Leader of the Zhou family.” On the VIP seats, Zhou Batian was smiling joyfully, and the leaders of the other families were busy offering their congratulations as well.

Zhou Batian smiled indifferently, ”Our Zhou family possesses the purest water elemental bloodline. It’s all as expected.”

Hearing Zhou Batian’s words, many in the crowd couldn’t help but mock inwardly, what purest water element; they seemed to have forgotten that in the past two years, the youths of their family had all failed to activate their bloodlines.

”Next, Tian Xiaoxiao!”

As the tester’s voice fell, a girl dressed in sportswear stepped out from the crowd.

”You have the wood attribute!”

How could I have the wood attribute, the girl’s face instantly soured.

The wood attribute was considered the lowest amongst the five elements, primarily associated with auxiliary healing. Such an attribute hardly promised any remarkable future prospects.

Tian Xiaoxiao dejectedly returned to the line.

”Next, Zhang Tao!”

Your attribute activation has failed.

”No, please, give me another chance!” Zhang Tao pleaded pitifully, his face pale as he begged the tester.

”Each person has only one chance to be tested; please step down,” the tester said coldly.

At that moment, two security guards came forward and escorted the dispirited Zhang Tao away.

The subsequent individuals all failed to activate their bloodlines.

The atmosphere on the field instantly became somewhat oppressive.

”Next, Li Jie.”

”You have the water attribute!”

Lin Chen looked towards the testing stele; although both Li Jie and Zhou Ming had activated the water attribute, the water that Li Jie managed to channel into the groove was but a thin layer, indicating that his talent was far inferior to Zhou Ming’s.

As the testing continued, most disciples failed to activate their bloodlines, with only less than one-third succeeding. This clearly illustrated the difficulty of bloodline activation.

Those who succeeded were overjoyed, while the failures were despondent. Both tragedy and comedy played out incessantly on the testing ground.

”Hao Lin!”

The tester called out solemnly at that moment.

Hearing the voice, Hao Lin trembled slightly, passing Lin Chen with a nervous expression.

”I must succeed, I must succeed!” Hao Lin murmured to himself as he walked, trying to psych himself up.

”Pfft, praying won’t help you. Someone with a low-grade bloodline like yours won’t succeed,” Zhou Ming scoffed disdainfully.

Lin Chen patted his shoulder, smiling as he said, ”Don’t be nervous. Go for it! Activate your bloodline and shut that disdainful jerk up.”

”Yeah!” Hao Lin nodded vigorously and strode towards the testing platform.
