I don't know where they got the news from.
Most people in the inner courtyard knew that Ye Qiubai and Xu Yeming were going to the Blood Assessment Hall.
Before Ye Qiubai and Xu Yeming, the Blood Assessment Hall was already packed with people, far more than usual.
They didn't come here for Xu Yeming.
Instead, they wanted to see what was so special about the bloodline of the person who had been making headlines in the academy these past few days and overpowering Xuanyuan Che.
The Fourth Elder led Xu Yeming and the other person into the room. He looked at the surrounding students but didn't say anything. Instead, he walked forward on his own.
When they arrived at the center of the Blood Assessment Hall.
Before them stood a massive stone pillar that ten people could not encircle.
The stone pillar runs through the entire Blood Assessment Hall, from bottom to top, all the way to the dome.
Above it, there were dense, blood-red lines.
These blood-red lines eventually converge at the middle section of the stone pillar.
There was a gap there, and in the gap was an ordinary-looking, unremarkable pearl connecting the two ends of the stone pillar.
The Fourth Elder turned to Xu Yeming, "Just smear a drop of your own Essence Blood on the stone pillar."
Xu Yeming nodded, just as he was about to do as instructed.
The left side, which was originally full of students, spontaneously parted to make way for them.
An elderly man with a serious expression walked over.
The Fourth Elder frowned slightly upon seeing this. "Why does the First Elder have time to come to the Blood Assessment Hall?"
The First Elder glanced at Xu Yeming, then looked at the Fourth Elder and asked, "Why did you bring them to the Blood Assessment Hall?"
"What else can we do? Naturally, we'll determine their bloodlines," the Fourth Elder said calmly. "They are exchange students from the Azure Firmament Academy, and Cangxuan Academy naturally wants to extend our hospitality."
Upon hearing this, the Grand Elder waved his hand in refusal, saying, "Only inner court students are qualified to use the Blood Assessment Hall. Although they are exchange students, they should not have this privilege. Otherwise, what will the outer court students who cannot use the Blood Assessment Hall think?"
Seeing this scene...
The other trainees looked at each other, their faces full of confusion.
Although the Grand Elder was not wrong, using the Blood Assessment Hall was not a big deal. There was no need for the Grand Elder to go to the trouble of personally making such a statement, was there?
Only Xu Yeming and Ye Qiubai knew the Grand Elder's intentions.
Although it is not yet possible to determine whether the intention is good or evil.
However, the other party ultimately did not want Xu Yeming to reveal that he possessed the Xu Clan bloodline.
The Fourth Elder's expression darkened, and he said, "Special circumstances require special handling, or does the First Elder actually have ulterior motives?"
At this point, the Fourth Elder looked at the First Elder with scrutinizing eyes, as if trying to discern something from the other's gaze to confirm something.
"I'm merely upholding the academy's rules to prevent students from the outer academies from harboring resentment," the Grand Elder said calmly, his eyes unwavering.
Watching the two confront each other.
Ye Qiubai and Xu Yeming exchanged a glance, both seeing the doubt in each other's eyes.
Is the Grand Elder truly an ally?
However, in order to temporarily dispel the Fourth Elder's doubts, Xu Yeming stepped forward and said, "Elder, we also want to see your academy's teaching method. Blood Assessment Hall is the first hurdle in the inner academy's teaching, we would like to give it a try."
If this causes dissatisfaction among students from your esteemed institution, we are willing to offer some compensation.
Hearing Xu Yeming's words.
Not only was the First Elder startled, but even the Fourth Elder looked surprised and doubtful.
The Grand Elder probably thought that Xu Yeming must know this would expose his identity, or perhaps he already had a plan to deal with it.
Otherwise, they wouldn't have done something like revealing their identity after being reminded.
The Fourth Elder was surprised and suspicious because he doubted Xu Yeming's identity, and was even 70% certain that Xu Yeming was definitely Xu Canghai's son.
After all, their auras are indeed somewhat similar, and he also shares the surname Xu...
Now, why are they so confident and proactive in wanting to undergo blood testing?
However, the Fourth Elder still wanted to see whether Xu Yeming truly had a backup plan and was confident, or whether he simply didn't know about this matter at all.
So he smiled and said, "Since you've put it that way, Elder, we can't refuse, can we?"
The Grand Elder frowned slightly, gave Xu Yeming a deep look, and then nodded, saying, "Alright."
He finished speaking.
Under the watchful eyes of everyone, Xu Yeming stepped forward and cut his finger, from which a drop of Essence Blood seeped out.
The moment the Essence Blood seeped out.
The surrounding students all tensed up.
A ferocious roar erupted from within that drop of Essence Blood!
The roar was deafening, as if the entire Blood Assessment Hall was trembling.
In fact, most of the trainees felt their blood flow reverse or even stop during this roar.
In an instant, a group of trainees coughed up a mouthful of blood.
The elder's eyes widened slightly.
The Fourth Elder looked on in disbelief.
Clearly, this is something only those with beastman bloodlines can possess.
Moreover, this is not an ordinary beastman bloodline.
Before they could think further...
Xu Yeming then smeared that drop of Essence Blood onto the stone pillar.
In an instant.
The dense, blood-red patterns on the entire stone pillar emitted a dazzling crimson light!
After the Essence Blood was smeared on the stone pillar, it began to spread continuously, climbing up along the blood-red lines, and the bloodline aura converged towards the dim pearl connecting the two ends of the stone pillar!
The once dull and lackluster pearl suddenly burst forth with a dazzling crimson light.
A massive amount of Blood Qi surged out, enveloping the entire Blood Assessment Hall Blood Qi.
Everyone present looked up at the dome of the Blood Assessment Hall with expressions of horror.
The Blood Qi gradually condensed and solidified.
With a roar, a colossal beast covered in scales, its scales opening and closing and spewing hot air, stood on its four legs, looking down upon all living beings!
This is Qilin.
Apart from the Qilin, there was no other bloodline aura.
In other words, Xu Yeming's bloodline is the pure Qilin Bloodline!
The elder's tense expression relaxed slightly.
The Fourth Elder blurted out, "This is impossible!"
How could it possibly be the Qilin Bloodline?
How could it be the Qilin Bloodline?!
Furthermore, why would someone with such pure Qilin Bloodline be a student of the Azure Firmament Academy? How could the proud Qilin Clan allow its direct descendants to go to the Mortal Realm?
Even the Qilin Clan Cangxuan Academy would never allow such a pure-blooded direct descendant to join!
It seems we've found a breakthrough.
The Fourth Elder looked at Xu Yeming and questioned, "Since you possess the bloodline of the Qilin Clan, how could you possibly join a force from a barbaric land like the Mortal Realm?"
"How could the Qilin Clan allow such a thing to happen?"
Just as the Fourth Elder was staring intently at Xu Yeming.
Xu Yeming glanced outside at the opportune moment and said softly, "We should be here by now..."
And it was at this moment.
A powerful roar came from outside.
" The Qilin Clan has come to pay a visit!"
