Chapter 193: Take a Look at Me, Is It That Difficult?

"Ten-Star bloodline grade; I never expected that Xun Er would be so outstanding!"

"Even within this powerful Ancient Clan, she is bathed in such boundless glory..."

"And I, am merely a piece of trash, unremarkable in the eyes of everyone..."

In a corner of the plaza, Xiao Yan watched Xun Er, who was bathed in boundless glory on the high platform, and smiled at first.

This smile was truly out of happiness for the achievement Xun Er had attained.

But very quickly, the trace of a smile on his face froze.

It turned into a thick bitterness hidden in his heart.

Because Xiao Yan realized that if he continued to live as mediocrely as he was now, the gap between the two would only grow wider, and he feared there would never be any possibility with Xun Er again.

As for Gu Fei, from beginning to end, he had not cast a single glance toward the high platform over there.

He held his two children, chatting and laughing with Cai'er, Xiao Yixian, and Zi Yan by his side.

"A Ten-Star bloodline looks so amazing... Daddy, what grade is your bloodline?" Xiao Xianle asked curiously, listening to the excited words of the people around them.

"If you want to know what grade Daddy's bloodline is, you'll know in a moment!"

Gu Fei flicked Xianle's nose.

"Your father is the current number one genius of the Ancient Clan; his bloodline grade is naturally the highest!"

Xiao Yixian replied as well.

To be honest, upon seeing that Xun Er's bloodline grade had reached the God-Grade, both Xiao Yixian and Cai'er felt a sense of surprise in their hearts.

After all, the cultivation speed Xun Er had displayed previously was truly too slow, and it seemed somewhat inconsistent with this bloodline grade of hers.

"It really is a God-Grade bloodline!"

On that high platform, the Gu Clan Elder who was testing Xun Er's bloodline had a very grave expression.

The next moment, he respectfully extended both hands and then lightly grasped the empty air in front of him.

Accompanying the closing of his palms, a dragon pen flickering with seven-colored luster appeared in his hand. As soon as this Seven-Colored Dragon Pen appeared, a look of reverence emerged on the faces of almost all the Ancient Clan members present.

"Seven-Colored Heavenly Emperor Pen... This object, which the Ancient Clan has not used for a thousand years, is it finally going to be brought out now..."

"Possessing this kind of bloodline power, as long as she is given time, in the future, this girl has a high probability of becoming a Nine-Star Dou Saint powerhouse!"

Many powerhouses from other Ancient Races felt moved; there was envy, and there was jealousy.

"Brother Gu Fei, I have already obtained the recognition of the Seven-Colored Dragon Pen now, can you not, can you not look at me even once..."

Xun Er took another deep look at Gu Fei and discovered that he had been teasing the children and chatting with the two women around him, never looking toward this side even once, and she felt extremely disappointed in her heart.

At this moment, she deeply hoped to receive Gu Fei's recognition.

Only.

The beautiful scene she anticipated, where she could gaze into Gu Fei's eyes, never appeared.

"Xun Er..."

Just at this moment, the Elder holding the Seven-Colored Heavenly Emperor Pen looked toward Xun Er and reminded her.

Hearing this, Xun Er withdrew her gaze and immediately closed her beautiful eyes slightly.

The next moment, the Gu Clan Elder's expression became grave once again, and a monstrous aura surged out from his body, covering the sky and earth.

Then, the palm holding the Seven-Colored Heavenly Emperor Pen tightened abruptly, and his arm danced suddenly.

One after another, seven-colored Clan Marks appeared stroke by stroke on Xun Er's fair forehead.

And as those seven-colored Clan Marks appeared stroke by stroke, the Gu Clan Elder's palm holding the Heavenly Emperor Pen could not stop trembling slightly, and the Dou Qi within his body was also flowing away rapidly like a tide at this moment.

"What a terrifying Heavenly Emperor Pen; no wonder no one in the Ancient Clan has been qualified to use it for a thousand years!"

"Just the consumption of Dou Qi from this alone—if one did not have the strength of a Dou Saint, one would likely be sucked into a dried-up husk in an instant!"

Feeling the rapidly vanishing Dou Qi in his body, this Gu Clan Elder's expression sank slightly, and he quickly focused his mind, controlling the perfect trajectory of the pen's strokes.

"Chi chi!"

The Seven-Colored Heavenly Emperor Pen danced in the air about half an inch away from Xun Er's forehead.

"Hoo!"

Ten minutes later, this drawing was finally completed under the gaze of everyone.

"It is done..."

Hearing the Elder's words, Xun Er's slightly closed eyes slowly opened.

And the moment her eyes opened, the seven-colored Clan Mark on her forehead suddenly erupted with intense seven-colored light!

"Hehe, a Seven-Colored Clan Mark; after a thousand years, it has finally appeared in our Ancient Clan once again!"

"I wonder, what kind of surprise will Gu Fei bring us next?"

When that seven-colored light erupted, several aged laughs sounded vaguely in the distant sky, and these laughs vanished in a flash.

"Hehe, next, let this old man preside over it personally!"

Very quickly, another old man descended to this place, taking over the work of testing the bloodline.

Moreover, this person's strength was much stronger than the Elder who had just performed the bloodline test.

Seeing the Ancient Clan act in this way, the many Central Plains powerhouses who had come to observe the ceremony, as well as those from the Ancient Races who had come to observe, were all startled.

But very quickly, someone understood.

"It seems that the one to appear next will be Young Master Gu Fei, who is hailed as the number one genius of the Ancient Clan..."

"Since Young Master Gu Fei can be rated as the number one genius, his bloodline grade will naturally not be weak!"

"Could it be that the Ancient Clan is going to give birth to two God-Grade bloodline clansmen in the same generation?"

"That shouldn't be possible; a God-Grade bloodline is hard to see even once in a thousand years... While Young Master Gu Fei's cultivation is certainly outstanding, perhaps it is due to good fortune, and his bloodline grade might not necessarily be very high..."

For a time, numerous gazes were directed toward Gu Fei, who was chatting and laughing with his family.

"Next, Gu Fei!"

Just as expected, the Gu Clan Elder who had just appeared called out Gu Fei's name.

"Daddy, Daddy, it's your turn!"

Hearing someone call her daddy's name, Xiao Xianle hurriedly waved her hand in excitement.

"I wonder what realm Daddy will reach; he should be more powerful than that person, right!"

Wushuang was also somewhat expectant.

Watching the reactions of the two children, Gu Fei smiled, then handed the children over to the sides of Xiao Yixian and Cai'er, and walked slowly onto the platform.

"Brother Gu Fei!"

"I hope you can amaze everyone!"

At the edge of the high platform, Xun Er revealed a bright smile and offered her well-wishes to Gu Fei.

At this moment, she appeared poised and graceful.

She had actually lingered on the platform a while longer on purpose, only coming down now, just to secure a chance to get close to Gu Fei.

However, Gu Fei acted as if he hadn't heard her well-wishes at all, and immediately walked toward the testing Elder without stopping.

"It seems this Miss Xun Er of the Ancient Clan has offered a warm face only to be met with a cold shoulder!"

"Hehe, it is said that they were once husband and wife; when they married, it drew the envy of ten thousand people!"

"What a pity, a talented man and a beautiful woman, both with heaven-sent gifts, yet in the end, they ended up in such a state of parting ways!"

This scene was noticed by some people nearby, sparking a series of whispers.
