Chapter 170: The Two Princes (1/2)

Sui Wenyan arched her eyebrows and looked at one side. As Lin Xiao had thought, there was someone who walked out. Their majestic appearance and great aura attracted a lot of attention as they immediately recognized them.

Some of them even bowed down as they greeted loudly, ”Your Highness!”

Their voices were filled with reference even though they were all around the same age.

Lin Xiao was not unfamiliar with this figure. He had seen this prince when he was spending the time with Lin Yun and Wenren Yu in Feng Yi City. At that time, he had seen the prince from a distance away and noticed the powerful aura around him.

”Prince Lin Kai.”

”Yes. He's only 18 years old but he's already at Foundation Establishment Stage for some time,” Sui Wenyan said with unhurried tone. Her gaze swept the crowd. ”In fact, there are two princes who are taking the test now.”

”Eh? Two?”

”Yes, the two youngest princes. One of them is Prince Lin Kai, who's 18 years old while the other one is Prince Lin Hong, who's 17 years old. The two of them are already at Foundation Establishment Stage for quite some time, so many people are thinking that these two young princes might have a chance for the throne.”

Lin Xiao blinked his eyes. In his opinion, just being a genius shouldn't be the requirement to become the Emperor.

”Is there no other reasons?”

”Yes?”

”There are more than 100 princes but why only 4 are qualified to contend for the throne?” Lin Xiao asked.

Sui Wenyan smiled bitterly. ”That's because there's a test that they needed to pass if they wanted to be able to contend for the throne. First is obviously their talent and the second one is their bloodline. There's a special pavilion hall in the palace that only those with thick enough bloodline would be able to open.”

Pavilion?

Before Lin Xiao could bring himself to ask, Lin Hu had already explained. ”Every kingdom had the pavilion hall because it's made during the primordial era. It's built with Dragon Power, so only those who had dragon's blood inside their body will be able to open it.”

'Dragon blood?'

'Yes. Don't you know that the reason why no one tries to contend with the Royal Family is because of the Dragon Blood inside their body?'

Lin Xiao's lips twitched. This was the first time he realized that there was dragon blood inside his body. For some reason, he felt a uneasy when thinking that he was not really a human being.

'You don't have to worry. Even though your blood contained dragon power, you're still human and not a dragon,' Lin Hu comforted. 'Before you meet with me, the dragon power in your blood is already quite plenty.'

'Before?'

'After Emperor Inheritance, obviously the purity of the dragon power inside your blood increased. A pity that you won't be able to use it before you advance to higher stage and have better understanding of your own body and power.'

Lin Xiao was speechless.
