For a moment, Lin Xinyue's kindness toward Lin Buzheng formed a great contrast with the hostility of the three men toward Lin Buzheng.
"Thank you, Miss Lin, for your kindness, but I'll just sit here."
Lin Buzheng shook his head and rejected Lin Xinyue's kindness.
The reason why Lin Buzheng rejected the offer was not because of the hostility of the three men.
Although their cultivations were at the ninth-layer Qi Path, three layers higher than Lin Buzheng's cultivation, they were much older than Lin Buzheng, thus their talent in Martial Arts was limited.
In no time, Lin Buzheng would surpass them, thus there was nothing to be afraid of.
The reason why Lin Buzheng rejected the offer was because no matter what he wanted, he would obtain it with his own strength.
Furthermore, Lin Buzheng was not familiar with Lin Xinyue, thus it was not his style to accept a stranger's kindness.
"Alright then."
"From today onward, if you encounter any difficulties in your cultivation, feel free to look for me."
Lin Xinyue nodded at Lin Buzheng, ending the conversation.
"Thank you, Miss Lin."
Lin Buzheng let out a sigh of relief and wore a wry smile on his face.
However, he noticed that in just a few words, not only the three men sitting in the second row, but most of the male disciples were looking at him with hostility.
It was obvious that these people were deeply in love with Lin Xinyue, thus when they saw Lin Xinyue taking the initiative to talk to Lin Buzheng, they immediately treated him as a competitor, thus their attitude toward him was not pleasant.
As one of the Four Beauties of Evergreen County, Lin Xinyue's charm was shocking.
"Who is this person, to think that someone as arrogant as Lin Xinyue would lower herself and take the initiative to talk to him?"
"I'm not sure. I've never seen this person before in the clan."
"There's something you don't know. His name is Lin Buzheng, and he's from the branch family of Eternal Peace City. In yesterday's entrance exam, his performance in the first three rounds was amazing. However, in the bloodline test, his bloodline was found to be of poor quality, so he was kicked out of the elite disciples by the exam elders."
"I see …"
For a moment, the disciples on the scene were talking about it.
Some of the disciples who participated in the entrance examination briefly explained Lin Buzheng's performance yesterday.
Lin Buzheng's identity was immediately known by almost all the disciples present.
Lin Buzheng was speechless when he saw this scene.
Lin Buzheng wasn't someone who liked to be in the limelight, but after a short conversation with Lin Xinyue, he had suddenly become the focus of all the family disciples at the scene. He was in the eye of the storm, and this was something that Lin Buzheng hadn't expected.
He didn't know if this Lin Xinyue was helping him or making enemies for him.
"His performance in the first three rounds was amazing, but his bloodline test was poor … It seems that this person is very talented in martial arts, but there's no trace of the Willow God's bloodline in his body."
"In the clan, only those with high-grade bloodlines are worth nurturing. Although this person's martial arts talent is high, his bloodline is not up to standard, and he still won't be valued by the clan. What a pity!"
"Hmph, that's nonsense! In the family disciples, the higher the bloodline grade, the stronger their martial arts talent, and vice versa. "
"This person's bloodline is not up to standard, which proves that his martial arts talent is limited. Although his strength is passable, it's only a temporary advantage. It won't be long before he'll be surpassed by other family disciples with high-grade bloodlines."
"What's the point of nurturing such trash?"
In the beginning, the disciples at the scene were still discussing the relationship between Lin Buzheng and Lin Xinyue.
But right after that, the topic shifted to bloodline inheritance and the connection between talent in the Martial Dao.
Whether bloodline inheritance and martial arts talent were strong or weak, and whether there was a definite connection, had been a topic of debate among the Lin family disciples, and even the entire martial arts world for many years.
One view was that bloodline inheritance and martial arts talent had a definite connection, but the relationship was not significant, and there was no definite connection.
Even if the bloodline inheritance was weak, a martial artist's martial arts talent could still be extremely high.
Another view was that bloodline inheritance was the embodiment of martial arts talent.
If the bloodline grade was too low, it proved that the person's martial arts talent was limited, and was not worth nurturing at all.
And the reality was basically consistent with the second view.
Over the years, the family disciples with amazing martial arts talent would definitely have extremely high bloodline grades.
Those family disciples who amazed the world in the entrance test, but had extremely low bloodline grades, would also be heavily nurtured by the family in the early years. But as time passed, these family disciples all became mediocre.
Because of this, although Lin Buzheng's performance in the first three tests was outstanding, he was still unable to become an elite disciple, and was decisively abandoned by the family.
However, in the long history of the martial dao world, there was no lack of martial artists who, although they did not have any bloodline inheritance, relied on their own strength to defeat and slay those who possessed the bloodline of the True Dragon, the Qilin, and other supreme bloodlines, attaining supreme Dao Fruit and climbing to the peak of the martial dao.
However, such martial artists were still in the minority.
This indirectly proved that there was a definite connection between bloodline inheritance and martial arts talent.
"Lin Buzheng's performance in the entrance test was extremely outstanding, unlike those short-lived martial artists."
"Perhaps the grade of Lin Buzheng's bloodline is not mediocre, but it's very high, and it's hidden very deep."
"Therefore, it can only be activated with a higher cultivation base."
In the history of the Lin family, there were occasionally family disciples who had very low bloodline grades at the beginning, and they did not stand out.
However, as their cultivation increased, the power of the bloodline that was revealed became extremely powerful and terrifying, far surpassing that of disciples of the same generation.
When the bloodline test was conducted, the grade of the bloodline would increase by leaps and bounds.
From mediocre, inferior-grade, and even mediocre, it would leap to superior-grade bloodline.
Therefore, some of the family disciples speculated that Lin Buzheng might be a family disciple who had this kind of bloodline power hidden very deep.
"Hmph, what bloodline power, it's hidden very deep."
"What a load of nonsense!"
"This person's cultivation has reached the sixth-layer Qi Path, but the bloodline power has not awakened. Could it be that this person has the pure bloodline of the Willow God, and can only awaken it at the Spirit Path Realm?"
"What a joke!"
Amidst the discussions, the black-shirted man on the second row spoke in a domineering manner.
His cold voice instantly suppressed all the discussions on the scene.
Lin Buzheng frowned when he heard this.
The black-shirted man's words were filled with malice, obviously directed at him.
However, it was an indisputable fact that Lin Buzheng did not pass the bloodline test.
Therefore, Lin Buzheng did not speak up to defend himself.
"In my opinion, this person's bloodline rank is mediocre. There's no value in nurturing him."
"As for his strength, it's even more weak. He's a piece of trash, not even worth mentioning."
"If you don't believe me, I can give him some pointers."
"When the time comes, you will understand how weak and laughable this person is!"
However, seeing that Lin Buzheng did not speak, the black-shirted man became even more aggressive.
Not only did he criticize Lin Buzheng's strength.
In the next moment, he even pointed a finger at Lin Buzheng, his attitude extremely arrogant.
Whoosh!
Hearing this, Lin Buzheng immediately opened his eyes and calmly looked at the black-shirted man at the top of the cliff.
His battle intent exploded and his true qi surged. He was ready to make a move.
Although Lin Buzheng did not want to cause trouble, he was not afraid of it either.
Since the black-shirted man had attacked him, he naturally had to retaliate.
In the world of martial arts, strength was everything.
Right now, Lin Buzheng was being bullied by the black-shirted man. If he did not retaliate, not only would he be looked down upon by the crowd, he might even face more trouble in the future.
"The Lecture Elder is here!"
Just as Lin Buzheng and the black-shirted man were about to exchange blows.
In the eastern sky, an extremely tall figure arrived on a cloud. In the blink of an eye, he turned into a white-shirted young man and landed on the futon at the top of the cliff.
Rumble!
At the same time, in the eastern sky, the sun struggled to jump out of the horizon.
It spewed out golden rays.
