Bloodline Test

Bloodlines in this world were divided into four grades: low, middle, top, and superior, with low being the lowest and superior the highest. This was common knowledge among people, but as for higher grades, Lu Shen didn't know anything about them.

As for warrior realm.

He only knew about the Refinement realm and Integration realm, with Integration realm being known as the true warrior realm. These were the warrior realms he was aware of.

In the Azure Cloud stronghold, Integration Realm warriors held significant power. Higher beings were typically found in stronger strongholds. Azure Cloud, being a low level stronghold, Integration Realm warriors hold major power.

Lu Shen didn't have many friends and didn't know much about warriors and their powers, he lacked information about the Bloodline Warrior Realm, as it was not taught until students turned 18 in school.

Every person who turned 18 years old would awaken their bloodlines, and all related to the Bloodline Warrior Realm were taught after they awakened their bloodlines, except for warrior families, because they passed down their knowledge to their descendants.

As Lu Shen recalled information about bloodlines and the warrior realm, A bright light suddenly appeared, and something flew toward Lu Shen really fast. He try to dodge it but it still hit him hard, it still hurt a lot. Everything went dark as he passed out.

"..."

Before he lost consciousness, he caught a glimpse of being hit so hard that he passed out. The object that struck him was round like a rusty bracelet, with a rainbow like colored gem in its center, it was emitting a mysterious light feeling. Even in that brief moment, Lu Shen couldn't shake off the mysterious aura of the bracelet.

Some time later....

Lu Shen regain his consciousness.

"What was that light and what hit me?"

Lu Shen rubbing his head as he tried to make sense of what just happened.

"What was that mysterious bracelet?"

He looked around to see if any damage could be seen because after that hit, some of the ground must have been damaged. However, he didn't see anything around, just the same old black and dirty slum area. Similarly, he couldn't find any damage on his body either.

"It's just a dream then" Lu Shen said to himself, trying to shake off the strange encounter. With a shrug, he started to walk towards his house, deciding to put the odd incident out of his mind for the time being.

....

.....

Back at home, he prepared and enjoyed some demon wolf meat before heading to bed. Exhausted from part time work, he quickly fell into a deep sleep.

.....

.....

In the vast blackness of space, Lu Shen found himself alone and sitting for some time until he spotted a man wearing a strange bracelet.

"Huh, huh, it's the same bracelet that I saw"

"Who is he?"

"Why does he have that mysterious bracelet?"

The mysterious man stood frozen, his body tense with urgency. He seemed alert, as if he were on high alert, and fleeing from something.

Suddenly, he turned around.

"You traitor! I treated you like a brother. Why did you betray me?" the mysterious man exclaimed, his face twisted with fury, As if he wished, he could swallow him whole.

"You idiot! You always had power and everything, able to do anything in this universe, while I'm left with nothing. I never thought of you as my brother" the man covered in flames retorted with an evil smile.

"As if I didn't do anything for you! I've killed all your enemies" the mysterious man retorted back.

"ha ha, fool, shut up! Give me the origin Bracelet and I'll grant you a painless death"

"I shouldn't have given you the Lu family surname, Lu Wang. You've disgraced the Lu family name, and you even poisoned me with the most ancient and deadly poison. Even I a supreme master cannot do anything" the man said, his voice heavy with regret and bitterness.

"Ha ha ha! What can regret do for you? I don't want to be in your shadow anymore. Give me the Origin Bracelet and a new king shall rise in this universe" Lu Wang laughed mockingly at the mysterious man's face.

After arguing with each other, both started to attack each other with various techniques and abilities, which was world-destroying for Lu Shen.

"...."

Seeing a scene straight out of a novel, where the main character is betrayed by his girlfriend or best friend, he was dumbfounded and didn't know what to do. However, he knew that if this was reality, he had to run from here.

"Shit, I will die if this is real, but why can't I move my body?"

"What is the Origin Bracelet they're fighting for?"

"Move!"

"I said move!"

Lu Shen could only watch them fight with a bitter smile, but one thing was clear, this wasn't real. He was certain that it could only be a dream or a memory of this body.

The man covered in flames used flame type abilities and many unknown techniques, while the mysterious man with the mysterious bracelet use various elemental abilities. However, it was clear that Lu Wang was more powerful than the mysterious man, as if mysterious man couldn't use his full power. After a long battles, Lu Wang gaining the upper hand.

....

After long battle.....

"Even if I die, I won't let you have the Origin Bracelet" the mysterious man declared, then, he begin to chant ancient words.

"Stop, you fool! Do you want to blow yourself up and destroy everything?" Lu Wang cried out in horror.

"Ha ha ha, go to hell!" the mysterious man laughed.

Boom

Boom

Boom

.....

....

With huge, disastrous explosions, both figures were out of sight.

As if they vanished from the face of the earth.

"I, the master of the universe, trusted the backstabbing man. This must be retribution for the warriors I killed for him" a weakened voice sounded.

"The inheritor of mine, be aware of my mistake and make real friends who stand by you even in the most dangerous times, not backstabbing ones"

"Go, origin Bracelet, find the one fated with you"

.....

Suddenly,

Lu Shen woke up in bed, he was drenched in sweat, his back sticking to his bed sheets. As he glanced around, he realized he was in his old and damage room, barely six square meters in size, and the morning light was already streaming through the window.

"what was that?"

"Did I dream it?"

"what is that strange bracelet?"

"Maybe it was just a dream, but didn't I see the same bracelet yesterday too?" he wondered in confusion.

"Who were they? They were too powerful, and I think they could destroy this place with a snap of their finger" he was shocked by the immense strength he had just witnessed and he felt that memory was just a dream.

He thought of that memory as a dream because as he had heard rumors that even a 9th realm warrior master could only destroy mountains, rivers, and seas. But these two mysterious men's fighting powers surpassed that of 9th realm warrior master, they could even destroy planets as he had just witnessed firsthand in dream.

.....

Checking the time, he noticed it was 9:00 AM.

"It's already 9 am, I should get ready for academy."

After a quick meal, Lu Shen headed to Northern High Academy.

.....

Awaken Hall....

Students stood in a large hall, whispering anxiously to each other. Some were excited, while others were nervous about the upcoming bloodline test. Then, a middle aged man appeared from the back of the hall, he stood before all the students.

"I am the vice principal of this school. I hope today's awakening goes smoothly, and I wish good luck to every student" After saying that, he returned to the awakening platform.

.....

"Do you know that Class A goddess Huo Rong has a top-grade water attribute bloodline, the Water Elf?" a student exclaimed.

"Yeah, man, she's so lucky to awaken a top grade bloodline. I wish I had the same bloodline"

"You wish" a student retorted sarcastically

" Ha ha "

"Ha ha"

"Quiet, all of you!!" Teacher Tang Said in loud voice.

"Make a line according to gender and go to the awaken stone to test your bloodline"

"Su Si "

After hearing his name Su Si goes to awaken platform and place his hand on a round stone.

"Middle grade fire tiger bloodline"

A line of text appeared on the screen in front of all the students and teachers.

"Wow, he has an middle grade bloodline!"

"He is lucky"

"He will have better future than other people"

Student being to talk to each with all having their own thoughts

"Good, Su Si, you can go back. At least you have a promising future" Teacher Tang praised.

"I wish I had his luck" a student muttered, casting an envious glance at Su Si.

Seeing the envy and hearing everyone talking about him, Su Si felt a sense of pride as he returned to his seat, and the next student approached the awaken platform.

"Low grade ant"

the announcement brought silence to all students.

"Oh god, why, why?" He cried out, tears streaming down his face, his cries loudly as he stepped down with a red face, tears staining his cheeks.

" hai, what can he do"

" God please give not high but at least middle grade"

"Ha ha what a trash"

Some sighed, some were filled with pity for that student, some felt scared, and some even began to pray to God.

In this era, those with low grade bloodlines have no chance of becoming true bloodline warriors, so, they can only be in the bloodline refinement realm, possessing a strong body but nothing else like long lifespan and to ascend to high status, one must possess at least a middle grade bloodline and If they don't have a high level bloodline, they can only be common people working for the warrior class until they die from overwork. Common people don't have high status in society.

....

"Next."

"Low grade."

"Middle grade."

"Low grade."

"Middle grade."

"Low grade."

"Middle grade."

.....

Seeing the results of class B, the vice principal sighed in disappointment.

"There is no top-grade bloodline in this batch from class B"

Hearing the vice principal's commented, Teacher Tang became a little nervous. Just then,

"Top grade Earth fox" 

"what"

"Who got the top grade bloodline?" the surprised vice principal inquired.

"His name is Tangsu Ming" Teacher Tang was also surprise.

"Ha ha, good, good! He has a bright future. Take him to the elite class"

"Yes sir" Teacher Tang agreed.

"See this, our boss."

"Ha ha ha."

"Hmm, after those heavenly herbs, he will definitely get a bloodline."

"What?"

"Nothing"

Some of Tangsu Ming's lackeys were praising their boss, while some students were not satisfied, and others were envious. Seeing this, Tangsu Ming became even more arrogant and proud.

"Hmph, what are these trash looking at?" Tangsu Ming muttered as he observed the envious gazes of the other students. Despite their jealousy, it filled him with satisfaction.

....

"Lu Shen, come"

Finally, Lu Shen's name was called.

"It's this poor student's turn. I wonder what his bloodline will be"

"Maybe some low grade bloodline"

"What can this trash get?"

"Who is he? Maybe he won't awaken any bloodline"

Students began to whisper about Lu Shen, with some even saying negative things while others didn't seem to care. The same was true for the teachers, as Lu Shen didn't have much presence in the academy and wasn't very active with other students.

Lu Shen despite hearing the comments of his fellow classmates, he remained calm and unaffected, so he walked towards the awakening stone platform and placed his hand upon it, to tell the truth, Lu Shen did not have much hope of obtaining a high level bloodline, but he hope to get at least middle grade bloodline.

Lu Shen placed his hand on the awakening stone, he felt some warm like energy flowing inside his body trying to awaken something deep within his blood.

Sometime later...

A text appear on awaken stone revealing Lu Shen bloodline.
