Beastmaster of the Ages

Inside the arena, the boys and girls who were fiercely fighting and cheering blankly stared at them, eyes wide.

"Those old women! They’re less than thirty? There must be something wrong with the formation!" a girl in green shouted.

"Yes!"

"Get them out of here."

It wasn’t so surprising that these kids who knew so little would blame it on the formation.

"What the hell is the Second Branch doing?"

Since the day they had been born, the thing their parents talked most about was Lin Mu\'s shameful past; the resentment they felt was normal. Affected by their emotions, the Grandsect Arena suddenly descended into chaos.

"Get out!" the immature and callous boys and girls, with young but fierce faces, shouted at Feiling and the others.

"Quiet!" On the high platform, the Fifth Branch Master, Lin Jie, shouted and everyone fell silent. The kids retracted their necks.

"I’m going to take a look." Lin Wuyi raised her head, her pointed chin drawing an arc in the air as she glanced at Dongshen Yue and the Second Patriarch. Coldly snorting, she descended from the sky and landed outside the formation.

"Come out!" She ordered Feiling and the others, her tone quite rude as if catching students who had cheated.

"Is this the Seventh Branch Mistress?" Lin Dan was also outside the formation.

"Once more." Lin Wuyi sneered, throwing out a small black ball that turned into a round flat cushion surrounded by a thick fog.

"That’s.…" Lin Dan was a little upset. In fact, he knew that it was impossible for the formation to have malfunctioned. Lin Wuyi just couldn\'t accept it.

"Come out!" she yelled again.

"If she wants to humiliate herself, let’s give her a chance." Dong Shenyue smirked.

Feiling and the others also found Lin Wuyi quite annoying. The youths in the Grandsect Arena were also causing a commotion.

"The formation’s evaluation doesn’t count. Shameless aunties! Can you still lie with the True Age Stone?"

"Go on! Let’s see how old you really are!"

Despite their pleasant dispositions, Feiling and the others were already annoyed with Lin Wuyi and the youths. Being called aunties when they were less than thirty? It was ridiculous!

"This is stupid." Taking the lead, Xiaoxiao left the formation and stood on the True Age Stone. Dongshen Yue had already used it once. It could determine the age of their bone, blood, flesh, and vita.

"Twenty-four!"

As soon as the number appeared, Lin Wuyi\'s stern expression faltered. Failing to control herself, she shouted, “Twenty-four!” Xiaoxiao was younger than her daughter, Lin Manman. In the Grandsect Arena, as soon as a girl in green heard the number, the weapon in her hand fell to the ground. She was frozen in astonishment. Dongshen Yue was right, Lin Wuyi had brought about her own humiliation. Feiling and Weisheng Moran quickly followed. They were all less than thirty and fully met the conditions for competing in the daisy ranking.

Although they were foreigners, they were daughters-in-law of the Lin Clan and possessed Lin Clan disciple cards. Feiling was treated as two levels above her grade. In terms of status, she was the main wife of the heir and more esteemed than many others. For example, Lin Manman was only treated as two levels above her grade because she wasn’t the legitimate heir, merely one of the branch mistress’ children. They didn\'t want to believe the results of the formation, but had nothing to say about Lin Wuyi’s True Age Stone. In other words, Lin Wuyi\'s self-inflicted humiliation had actually helped Feiling and the others, saving them from further doubt.

"Lin Wuyi, have you done enough? Get out of here and stop interfering with the kids’ competition," Dongshen Yue sneered.

"Sure, their cultivation level’s high enough, but can they fight?" Lin Wuyi shot a cold look at Feiling and the others. Logically speaking, having grown up outside of Ebonia without the Infinitum Bloodline or resources from Ebonia and their ancestors, Feiling and the others wouldn’t be able to compare to the young geniuses of the Lin Clan. But being able to reach their level at such a young age was proof that the three of them were also infinitum-class geniuses at the top of the Lin Clan. Many people had yet to realize the significance of three talented daughters-in-law, but those who did were already contemplating and sneaking glances at Lin Xiao and Dongshen Yue.

Flicking her sleeves, Lin Wuyi returned to her seat without so much as a glance at Dongshen Yue as she played with her bright red nails. There was tension in the air. The youths of the Lin Clan stared coldly at Feiling and the others.

"Don’t show mercy if you’re matched with any of them," the girl in green cruelly said. She knew that her mother had been embarrassed because of them.

"The fight continues!" Under the arrangement of the elders, the fight began. Sure enough, some seventh- and eighth-level solarians were no match for the three of them. It wasn’t surprising at all.

"They can be arrogant for now, but they’ll cry when they meet Lin children of the same level."

Watching Feiling and the others rise in the ranking, the youths who were filled with righteous indignation grew more and more angry. However, opponents were matched by the formation; there was nothing they could do.

"They look so anxious. It’s obvious they don’t have the Infinitum Bloodline. Dealing with them will be nothing for Manman and the others."

"The one called Jiang Feiling can’t even stand one move from Manman."

"They’re lucky. They haven’t been matched with Manman yet!"

"Just wait and see!"

......

Because of Lin Mu, Feiling and the others were despised for no reason. The more conspicuous they were, the harder it would be for the Lin Clan to accept. Tianming had a headache. The problem wasn’t something that could be washed away.

At the moment, Feiling and the girls were already in the top fifty and were about to enter the final stage of the daisy ranking.

"Uncle Dan, they keep mentioning the Infinitum Bloodline. What’s that?” Tianming asked.

"The Infinitum Bloodline?" Tilting his head to the side, Lin Dan continued, "Well, after a family, clan, or ethnic group multiplies in Ebonia for at least a million years, a collective bloodline is born. Once more than eighty percent of the clan possess that collective bloodline, they’re considered a true clan of Ebonia. Only then are they qualified to remain on Ebonia."

"It takes a million years for a collective bloodline to form?" Tianming was shocked.

"That’s the minimum. Some take five million years. It\'s easy for one person to possess the Infinitum Bloodline, but very difficult for a clan’s descendants to inherit it. The basic indication of an Infinitum Bloodline is for eighty percent of the clan’s children to have an astral physique and be gods at birth, otherwise the newborns wouldn’t be able to withstand the star’s gravity and would die as soon as they leave their mother\'s womb. Through the process of natural selection, only infants born as gods survive from generation to generation, while the weak are immediately eliminated. Only when the cycle repeats itself for a million years can a clan establish themselves and grow on Ebonia. The Swordgod Lin Clan is considered one of Ebonia’s ancient clans, but only ninety-five percent of our infants possess the Infinitum Bloodline! In other words, five out of a hundred infants will die at birth because they failed to inherit the bloodline from their parents. On Ebonia, fertility is a great study!” Lin Dan seemed very emotional as he spoke, his mustache flickering up and down.
