"How did Senior Tianyan come by this information?" Wang Shouzhe asked calmly as he sipped his tea.
Senior again?
Fairy Tianyan's eyes grew even more resentful.
I disregarded even my dignity, rushing over eagerly to curry favor with you the moment I got some intelligence. Yet every other word out of your mouth is 'Senior'...
"Although Zuoqiu Qingyun is not from the Zuoqiu Clan's main line, he is still one of the higher-ranked members of a direct branch. This is not merely because one of his direct ancestors was a Purple Mansion Master, but also because of some deeper reasons." Fairy Tianyan drew a deep breath and explained seriously. "A Fourth-Rank Aristocratic Clan differs from ordinary families. Their greatest strength lies in the fact that, after generation upon generation of bloodline optimization, the bloodline aptitudes of their descendants are generally very high."
"Coupled with their enormous population base, every generation produces quite a few young people with mid-grade bloodlines. Among them are no lack of exceptionally gifted individuals, born with mid-grade B-rank bloodlines, or even the rare mid-grade A-rank bloodlines—the Lesser Heavenly Prodigies we often speak of."
"If such a person, while at the Qi Refining Realm, first used one or two Marrow Cleansing Pills to improve their bloodline, then consumed a Wuji Treasure Pill, there would be a considerable chance for their bloodline to transform into upper-grade C-rank. Even among Heavenly Prodigies, that would count as relatively formidable."
"Zuoqiu Qingyun was only born with a mid-grade C-rank bloodline. Even after benefiting from his ancestors' accumulated blessings and taking Marrow Cleansing Pills, he only barely reached the level of a Lesser Heavenly Prodigy. His clan excluded him from the Heavenly Prodigy training sequence. Even within Qing'an Academy, he was merely a core disciple who was neither outstanding nor mediocre." Fairy
