Birth of a Variant

Anyone not of the human race or without pure bloodline was considered a mixed-blood bastard! 

Even if one of their parents came from the saint race, they would still be seen as a mixed-blood. 

In the universe, bloodlines were recognized to an extent far beyond what ordinary people could imagine. 

Only pure bloodlines could ensure the continuation of a race, which was why major races strictly prohibited intermarriage with outsiders.

When the royal lord of the Northern Region was young, he had showcased his incredible talent in the Prodigy Tournament of his era, stood out in the Ten Thousand Stellar Realm Competition, and entered the Immortal Burial Ground. 

Such talent was destined to reach the peak. 

However, despite being at the peak of his cultivation, he had an affair with a phoenix girl of the saint race, which violated the core principles of his race. 

As a result, he would never be able to enter the upper echelons of his race.
