Chapter 314: The Test
Translator: Transn Editor: Transn
Duan Jingtian had a Rank 5 Blue Class talent, which surprised the other warriors in the fighting ring.
If Duan Jingtian was a famous martial artist before, it would have been no surprise to the others to have such good talent. However, he had been a nobody in the Hong Domain.
Some of the martial artists had memorized his name because this young man might be their powerful opponent in the next competition.
In the fighting ring, the elders and disciples from Gale Island were shocked when they saw that Duan Jingtian had a Rank 5 Blue Class talent.
“Rank 5 Blue Class talent!” The First Elder gasped.
In fact, he had once thought that Duan Jingtian’s talent was a Rank 7 or 8 Teal Class. So now, the result was beyond his expectation.
Presently, Duan Jingtian’s power was close to the gifted martial artists’ who ranked 30th to 40th on the List of Top 100 Talents.
The post-archean Test Pillar for Talent was used for examing the warriors’ comprehensive talents, including Martial Soul talent, body constitution talent, willpower talent, and other talents related to martial arts.
Every kind of talent could affect the final result.
“No wonder Senior Brother Duan has a Rank 5 Blue Class talent. So awesome!”
“Haha! Senior Brother Duan’s talent may rank in the top 40 in the Hong Domain.”
“Haha! Su Mo’s talent doesn’t hold a candle to Senior Brother Duan’s talent. He’s lucky to improve his cultivation so rapidly.”
Some disciples of the Sky Alliance laughed and looked very happy when they saw the result as if they were the ones who had a Rank 5 Blue Class talent.
But the Second Elder, Elder Wei, and Wang Hui looked a little serious.
Duan Jingtian’s talent was so excellent that no one in Skymoon Country, even in the seven countries in the South of the Yan River, could surpass him.
“Duan Jingtian has such gifted power. Within 10 years, he can easily enter the Enlightenment Realm. His future achievements will definitely be remarkable!”Some elders who remained neutral meditated.

Standing in front of the test pillar, the result shocked Duan Jingtian as well. Then, he became full of joy as he quickly realized why his talent rank was so high.
Even though his Martial Soul talent and willpower talent were quite good, he could not reach Blue Class with his own strength. It was certainly because of the drop of dragon’s blood. Even though only a little of its energy remained, the blood had fundamentally altered his body constitution.
At this moment, the handsome Duan Jingtian was full of high spirits and confidence, so he suddenly drew the attention of many female martial artists.
Then, he turned to leave. When passing by Su Mo, Duan Jingtian smiled and sneered at him. “Su Mo, I’m looking forward to seeing your talent result. If you don’t rank in the top 500 and will be eliminated in the first round, this competition will be so boring.”
“Even if I awaken the lowest Red Class talent, I can still defeat you,” Su Mo said with a disdainful smile.
“Humph! You’re too arrogant!” Duan Jingtian said upon hearing this. He snorted at Su Mo, then ignored him as he directly went back to the spectator stands. They had nothing in common.
The other disciples still continued with their testing. Their talents were also quite good as even the lowest one had a Rank 2 Teal Class talent.
After a while, Huo Ling, Prince of Flaming Cloud, arrived. He touched the test pillar and then turned to leave.
Huo Ling had tested his talent last time and clearly knew his rank, so he did not need to wait for the result.
“Buzz! Buzz!”
When Huo Ling turned around, the test pillar emitted a radiant blue light right away, from the first section to the ninth section.
“Rank 9 Blue Class talent!”
“Hiss!”
In the fighting ring, the entire crowd hissed in shock. The people who did not know Huo Ling’s real power widened their eyes in disbelief.
Even those people who already knew Huo Ling’s talent rank felt a little astonished when they saw the test result.

“He’s definitely Prince of Flaming Cloud, the No. 4 genius on the List of Top 100 Talents!”
“His talent is beyond our imagination. If it wasn’t for Ao Wushuang, he might be No. 1 on the List of Top 100 Talents this year.”
“His talent is as powerful as Wu Sheng’s. Only Ao Wushuang can surpass him.”
The crowd exclaimed together in admiration of Huo Ling’s talent.
After Huo Ling had finished his test, other geniuses on the List of Top 100 Talents also started to examine their talents with the pillar.
Duanmu Ying, Rank 7 Blue Class!
Mo Yue, Rank 7 Blue Class!
Han Qianze, Rank 8 Blue Class!
Hong Qingtian, Rank 8 Blue Class!
Wu Sheng, Rank 9 Blue Class!
These geniuses tested one by one, all of them possessing amazing talents. Aside from them, eight people had a Rank 6 Blue Class, and more than 20 martial artists had Rank 5 Blue Class talents.
But a few of them, like Feng Xiu, Ji Xuehan, and Leng Yunfeng, did not have such good talent. Their talents only were Rank 1 Blue Class.
“Hahaha! They’re pretty good!” At this moment, Ao Wushuang chuckled and walked up to the post-archean test pillar.
With his left hand behind his back, he slowly raised his right hand and touched the white pillar.
“Buzz! Buzz!”
The pillar emitted a blue light from the first section to the 10th, but it went quickly back to the first one. To everyone’s surprise, the pillar suddenly became purple.
“A Rank 1 Purple Class talent!”
All of a sudden, the clamor came to a halt. Then, the crowd went into an uproar in the fighting ring.
“Excellent! Rank 1 Purple Class talent!”
“No wonder he’s No. 1 on the List of Top 100 Talents of the Hong Domain, the young dominator in the Hong Domain.”
“His talent is the best! No one can surpass him.”
Everyone was amazed at his excellent talent. Those young martial artists who wanted to watch the combat expressed their admiration as well.
Su Mo was also shocked. His talent perfectly proved the meaning of his name. “Wushuang” meant the unique one. Now, he was indeed the most unique and excellent martial artist in the Hong Domain.
Ao Wushuang smiled, but he did not care about their discussion or admiration. He just flew back to the spectator stands with all eyes fixed on him.
Ao Wushuang did not feel excited because he grew up around the praise and worship of everyone. Hence, he had gotten tired of it and took it for granted.
Actually, what was weird for Ao Wushuang was if someone ignored him.
Wu Sheng, Huo Ling, Hong Qingtian, and other geniuses on the list already knew about Ao Wushuang’s talent, so they were not surprised at all. And looking at Ao Wushuang’s back, all of them sighed.
“His talent is the best, but it doesn’t mean he has the most powerful combat strength,” they thought positively to comfort themselves.
“Ninth Sister, you’ve also joined the Top-100-talent Competition. Now you can test your talent and help me curb Ao Wushuang’s arrogance,” Hong Qingtian said to the lady in the white veil beside him. Then, he went back to the spectator stands.
“Haha! Sixth Brother, I’ll test my talent.” The lady in the white veil chuckled. Then, she flew over to the test pillar like a gliding swallow.
Hong Qingtian looked at the back of the young lady and glanced at Ao Wushuang, who sat in the opposite stand, thinking, “Ao Wushuang, I’ll see how you react when seeing my sister’s test result.”
Hong Qingtian knew how powerful his Ninth Sister’s talent was. Otherwise, his father would not have personally sent her to the distant Dark Domain when she was a young girl.
There were not many people left in front of the pillar.
Su Mo slowly walked toward the pillar.
In this instant, a breeze blew over him and a natural body scent floated around him that smelled like an orchid.
Immediately, a beautiful girl wearing a white dress landed beside Su Mo.

So expect to see: -A mature main character who still has some flaws. -Character development over the course of the story. -No harems! (see last point) -A vibrant world full of interesting people, deep culture, and mysterious lore that gets uncovered as the story goes on. -Plenty of funny moments along the way! -The presence of a few cliched tropes and stereotypes only for the sake of poking fun at them. So step in, take the first leap, and uncover the next hot take on this expansive genre! My discord here: https://discord.gg/Zc8CHSrxVr

Deep sickness festering within in him. Given a second chance by either coincidence or something more sinister, follow the story of he who bleeds black. Betrayal, greed and blood littered in droves across this hellbound path. ********** 2000+ words daily for now, will reduce to thrice a week after the writathon. If it wasn't clear, this is a vampire story taking place in a high fantasy environment. Although while its main character is a vampire and that is one main focus of the story it will also lend itself to the magic side of this world as well. Basically, if you're interested in vampires or magic heavy stories, this will have something for you... probably. The synopsis is kinda vague but If you give it a shot, I think you'll like it. Also, feel free to drop any sort of constructive criticism since this is one of my first experiences writing in first person.Forgot to add that the story will be a little less action-orientated until around chapter 20+ when... well... read and see :) Any chapters with the * next to them have been edited or tweaked. I'll remove it once all of them are.

After that, it’s mostly downhill. ~~~ Includes: purple mist demons, portals, Yuki Onna, other demons, warlords, ashigaru, a try-hard mage, an eight-tailed fox and an endless litany of pathological liars.

Will be back in October to finish off Volume 1 and start off Volume 2.
