Panlong: Taotie bloodline, unlimited power growth!

Liuyun City.

The next morning.

The sky was just beginning to lighten.

A carriage bearing the coat of arms of the Bartley family departed from the Bartley Viscount's mansion.

Inside the train carriage.

Avril wore a pink dress and had two little buns in her hair, which swayed back and forth with the bumps of the carriage.

just.

This little girl clearly wasn't in the mood to admire her new clothes.

Two chubby little hands were tangled together, their knuckles turning white.

"elder brother."

"if……"

"What if I don't have magical talent?"

Avril's voice was barely audible.

Those big, bright eyes, which were usually so alert, looked flustered at this moment.

She had heard her father say that.

If she doesn't have magical talent, she'll have to learn martial arts.

Thinking of my father's hard, muscular body, and then looking at my own soft little arms.

The little girl shivered.

too frightening.

Raven leaned back on the cushion, fiddling with a gold coin in his hand.

The gold coins fluttered between his fingers like a living butterfly.

He flicked his finger upon hearing his sister's words.

Ding!

The gold coin was tossed high into the air and landed steadily in the palm of the hand.

"What's there to be afraid of?"

"Even if you don't have magical talent, your older brother can still support you."

"I'll raise you into a real, rounder little pig."

"If anyone dares to bully you in the future, I'll beat them up."

Raven reached out and pinched that chubby face.

"Pfft."

Jenny, sitting opposite, couldn't help but laugh out loud.

As a mother, she naturally hoped that her daughter would follow in her footsteps.

The soldiers are suffering too much.

Not only do they have to toughen up their bodies, but they also have to teeter on the edge of life and death.

How noble are magicians?

Stand at a distance and chant a few incantations, and the world will be destroyed.

Most importantly, elegance.

"Don't listen to your brother's nonsense."

"Our Avril is so smart, she must have talent."

Jenny glared at Raven.

Then.

She gently pulled Avril into her arms.

"So what if I don't have talent?"

"If you don't have talent, then learn fighting spirit from me!"

"Look at your brother!"

"A level four warrior who's not even ten years old!"

"Even within the entire Magnolia Empire, he is a genius!"

Doug sat to the side, his back ramrod straight.

He placed his hands on his knees and said nonchalantly.

"Will I develop bulky muscles from working out with you?"

"How will you get married in the future?"

Jenny rolled her eyes at Doug.

Doug was speechless.

He touched his nose and fell silent.

Raven watched this scene with a slight smile on his lips.

This is his home for the rest of his life.

Warm and lively.

Compared to the cold, impersonal rented room in my previous life, this place is simply paradise.

but……

Raven looked out the window.

In the world of Panlong, the strong reign supreme.

For this warmth to last, it must be protected by sufficient strength.

Although my father is a level nine warrior, he is considered a big shot in Liuyun City.

It can be placed in the Magnolia dimension.

A level nine warrior isn't even worth mentioning.

Even the Holy Realm is nothing more than a slightly larger ant in front of those god-level powerhouses.

I still need to get stronger.

……

Temple Square.

The area in front of the gate was already packed with people.

The annual magical talent test is a life-changing event for any family.

Once magical talent is detected, even a commoner can rise to the top in one step.

If one is a nobleman, it can bring even more glory to the family.

"That's Viscount Bartley's carriage!"

"I heard his son is a warrior prodigy, he's already reached level two!"

"What use is a warrior genius? These days, mages are the noblest!"

"Shh! Keep your voice down, Lord Doug is a level nine warrior, he could crush you with a single finger!"

The crowd automatically parted to form a path.

Doug strode confidently at the front, his menacing aura causing the surrounding temperature to drop several degrees.

Jenny followed closely behind, holding Avril's hand.

Raven trailed behind at the back, his gaze sweeping across the crowd.

He naturally heard the discussions around him.

Level 2 soldier?

This was a smokescreen that Doug released six months ago.

A level-two warrior who is not even ten years old can certainly be considered a genius, but he won't attract too much attention.

To some extent.

This is an alternative form of protection for Raven!

soon.

The magic test has begun.

When a child's talent is discovered, the whole family cheers with excitement.

Some children looked dejected, and their parents also looked gloomy.

"Next!"

"Avril Barrett!"

An elderly man in a gray robe, holding a list in his hand, called out loudly.

"Go."

"Don't be afraid, Dad's watching."

Doug patted his daughter on the back.

"Um."

Avril took a deep breath and strode forward with her short legs.

In the center of the testing platform, there was a transparent crystal ball about the size of a watermelon.

This is a refining tool used to test elemental affinity.

"Put your hands on it, close your eyes, and don't think about anything."

The old man glanced at Avril, his tone indifferent.

Upon hearing this...

Avril stood on tiptoe and placed her two small hands on the cool crystal ball.

one second.

two seconds.

The crystal ball did not react.

The surrounding crowd began to whisper among themselves.

"Looks like it's hopeless."

"It's a pity. If the Bartley family could produce a magician, their status would be even higher."

"Hey, I knew it! There's no such thing as a perfect match—a son is a genius, and a daughter is a genius too!"

Doug frowned.

Jenny held her breath, staring intently at the crystal ball, her nails almost digging into her flesh.

Raven, however, was quick-witted and looked at those ill-intentioned fellows.

Just then.

"Buzz!"

The crystal ball suddenly began to tremble.

Suddenly, a dazzling blue light burst forth from the originally transparent sphere!

The blue light was pure and intense, like the deep ocean!

There was even a faint sound of water rippling!

"Whoosh~"

"This light...it's so strong!"

"At least average! No, top-notch!"

The crowd erupted in uproar.

The people who were just making sarcastic remarks were all stunned.

The old man in charge of the test suddenly widened his previously cloudy eyes.

"Water element affinity..."

"Superior quality!"

He hurriedly moved closer to the crystal ball, carefully examining the patterns of light and shadow inside.

The old man's voice was somewhat agitated, but his gaze towards Avril immediately softened.

"Good! Good! Good!"

"Hahaha! My seed! It's really powerful!"

He said "good" three times in a row.

Doug's serious face instantly broke into a wide smile.

Jenny's eyes welled up with tears of excitement, and she clutched her chest, letting out a long sigh of relief.

Top quality!

This means that as long as he doesn't die young, becoming a level seven mage is a certainty!

There's even hope for level eight or nine!

"Don't rush!"

"There's also a mental strength test!"

The old man quickly calmed down.

He led Avril to the magic circle for testing mental strength.

Avril now felt more confident.

She obediently walked onto the magic circle and waited silently.

"Buzz~"

The magic circle lit up.

An invisible wave enveloped Avril.

The data inside the crystal ball began to fluctuate rapidly.

After more than ten breaths.

The old man's smile became even brighter.

"Mental strength... seventeen times that of his peers!"

"Superior quality!"
