When it appeared in the Transportation Tower. It's already past noon.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Wow, that was fun\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Laverne must be missing this fight\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ernest said beside me.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hearing that I nodded my head at him. Then we parted ways after splitting the monster cores.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Soon, I reached the dorm room. After entering the room, I laid down on my bed first.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The following day,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After completing the morning routine. I entered the training room to cultivate. Now I can resume the blood element method.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sitting down cross-legged, I held the Class-4 Monster core in my hand. Then I started to run the blood element method.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Right after, the bloody rune in my consciousness started to flicker.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then the next moment, I felt suction in both of my palms and then I began to absorb the monster core energies.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As the energies entered my body. I began to guide the energies according to the blood element method.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As the energies run through my veins. The red light appears above the blood. Right after, the red blood began to convert these white energies in a blink of an eye.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After conversion, the mysterious white energies began to drill into my bones. The skeleton below the hip region is already dyed red.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Now the red color is beginning to expand in the upper part of my skeleton. But the process comes with immense pain.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Time passed,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After a few hours, I ended the practice. Then I walked out of the training room. Right after, the bad smell attacked my nostril.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing the sweat all over my skin. I rushed to take a shower.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Several minutes later,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I changed to an academy uniform. After getting ready, I left the room. But when I stepped outside, Something else was waiting for me.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In front of the dorm boiling, the crowd gathered in small numbers. Seeing that my eyes gleamed with a twinkle.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"What is going on?\" I mumbled under my breath.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I approached the crowd. Then I saw someone laying on the ground with bruises all over his body.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Why does it look familiar?\" I said to myself.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The students are gossiping among themselves.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Who has the guts to thrash the Special Element Warrior?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Someone from the crowd said. Hearing that a look of disbelief appeared on my face.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Special Element Warrior?\" I uttered. Then I rushed forward to see.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The person who was laying down is none other than Ernest Kirk.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Ernest?\" I called out his name.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He seems to have fainted. Then someone brought the water and splashed it over his face.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Uh?\" Ernest opened his eyes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing Zack's face, he uttered, \"Michael.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A quick glint flashes in my eyes. I understood what happened. Michael must have attacked him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I saw many people gathering around. Then I supported Ernest to stand up and took him to my room.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Meanwhile,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The news began to spread like wildfire. Someone took pictures of Ernest and posted them online.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Nobody would have imagined such a scene. Someone brutally attacked the Special Faction Member.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The topic began to trend. People are wanting to know the attacker's name. The students who are online started to point fingers at the Flame Faction Members.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As time passed, the warriors in the academy became suspicious. Most of the eyes were on the Flame Faction Members.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But the Flame Faction members are pointing at the Metal Faction. And the least suspected faction is the RainWater Faction.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Because the warriors from these factions were defeated at the hands of Zack Lockwood. Someone might have held this grudge.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Only the Gale Faction and Earth Faction are not on the list.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Meanwhile,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The person who is responsible for this act was chilling in the Special Faction Common Room.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Michael Blevins didn't worry about the consequences. But he was pissed off by Ernest Kirk's words.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Half an hour ago,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He met the guy and asked him to follow him. But Ernest Kirk talked back to him. Not only that, he told him that nothing would happen to Laverne's family.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Because of that fight broke out. He couldn't help but make some sense to him. All because of one person.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A ruthless glint flashes in Michael's eyes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A few months ago, the situation was different. Even though there is rivalry between the families.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The relationship between Michael, Laverne, and Ernest was not bad.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But one person changed everything.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Zack Lockwood,\" He mumbled under his breath.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At first, he thought some nameless junior was making some waves. But he underestimated Zack.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even the dean seems to take care of him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Michael's eyes flickered. If not for that reason, he would have attacked Zack. Right now, he couldn't help but let out a sigh.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It's already too late. It's impossible to convince Laverne and Ernest anymore. They are completely on Zack's side.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Michael himself can't go against his father's wishes. Since his father wanted to head the azure city. It's bound to cause some anger.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It would be inevitable to avoid some clashes. And Laverne's family and Blevins's family have a long-standing rivalry.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>There is going to be a fight in the coming days. So he doesn't feel like going against Ernest now.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Dorm room,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Are you alright now?\" I asked.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ernest nodded his head, sitting on the sofa.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"It's good that he left with you some bruises, not any serious injury,\" I added further.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Michael is a strong warrior. Though both Ernest and him are Super Elite Warriors. Michael can overpower him easily.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>On top of it, he didn't even use his element to fight.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Now, tell me. What happened?\" I asked.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ernest gained some clarity in his thoughts. He then began to speak slowly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After a few minutes, I began to massage my temple.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"What's with Michael's father?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Is it necessary to target Laverne's family?\" I asked back.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ernest's expression turned solemn.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Michael is behaving in this way because of his father. His father is quite ambitious. He won't deny his father's orders,\" Ernest replied.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I don't know how to solve this issue. I hope that Laverne's family will vacate the city soon.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Carlos Kent is staying in his home in Viper City. After his talk with the Giant Tower Headmaster, he is hesitating to go back to the Academy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Giant Tower Headmaster might give him some other task in the future. But he doesn't know what it is.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then he began to access online news out of boredom. When the page comes up. His eyes flickered for a moment.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He saw the name of the Special Faction is trending online. Seeing that, I began to read the post.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Michael Blevins\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His expression turned weird. He was aware of what was going on. Because he is the head of the Special Faction Warriors.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He knows there is friction because of the azure city's situation. He hoped that kid wouldn't touch Zack Lockwood.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Otherwise, that person would come back again to beat him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Beep~\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>All of a sudden he receives a call from the Giant Tower Headmaster.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing that his mouth twitches again.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Why is he calling right now?\" Carlos muttered to himself.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He thought it would take a few days to call him back. Since he is calling right now. There must be some task waiting for him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then he attended the call.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Carlos, I have an important task for you.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"If you accomplish it right, then you will get to meet someone important.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"If that person agrees, he will give you the resources that you want.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Giant Tower Headmaster's voice reached his ears. Hearing that his earlier gloominess completely swept away.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>For a moment, Carlos remained silent. His mind began to race. He realized that the person might be the mastermind behind the scenes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It's a good opportunity to collect the intel.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Are you serious?\" He asked back.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Giant Tower Headmaster let out a small laugh. He felt that Carlos had taken the bait completely.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I know you must have some doubts.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Let me tell you. I'm serious. As long as you finish the task. I'll recommend your name. You will receive expensive resources.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Giant Tower Headmaster started convincing again. He believes that Carols would accept the task.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Carlos Kent relaxed his eyebrows and finally decided to listen.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Alright, tell me. What is the task?\" He asked.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Giant Tower Headmaster replied, \"You know that Azure City right? One of our men is going to head the city in the future.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"In the future, several of our men will join the city. But the main city was occupied by many families.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"So your task is to assist that person.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Carlos Kent's expression was ugly. He never expected this person's hand to be stretched to this extent.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They are targeting one of their affiliated cities. Suddenly, he thought of something.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Who is the person?\" He asked back. Apart from the head of the Blevins family. There was no other strong person. So he is slightly confused.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You might have guessed it. He is the Blevins Family Head. He has joined our side,\" The Giant Tower Headmaster replied.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Carlos Kent's pupil shrank.\u003C\u002Fp>",1538,"2026-06-05T15:56:53.483Z",1,"novelbin.me","2d904b1a26d98dd8f96083b25b6691099ac119d6058823f5033b7eed28a04ebc","ancient-tears-bloodline-chapter-561","ancient-tears-bloodline-chapter-559",1498,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fancient-tears-bloodline-cover.jpg"]
