Martial Master

In the hall, there were two lines formed.

One of the lines consisted of adult martial artists, who generally came to the Bloodline Holy Land for bloodline upgrades or repairs.

After awakening, a bloodline can improve with the enhancement of a martial artist's strength. Additionally, bloodline practitioners can use external materials to enhance the power of a martial artist's bloodline, thereby increasing their strength.

The other line was made up of many parents leading their young children, evidently waiting for the bloodline practitioners of the Holy Land to conduct the awakening ceremony.

"This young sir, are you here for the bloodline awakening? Where are your parents? Didn't they come with you?"

A pleasant voice suddenly sounded in Qin Chen's ear, accompanied by a refreshing fragrance. A girl in a white long dress, with a graceful figure, smiled at Qin Chen as she spoke.

Lin Xinrou was a receptionist at the Bloodline Holy Land. After seeing Qin Chen enter, she couldn't help but step forward to inquire.

"Young sir?"

Qin Chen touched his nose. This title was quite unique. In his previous life, when he visited the headquarters of the Bloodline Holy Land in the Martial Domain, every receptionist treated him with utmost respect. Hearing such a title felt quite novel.

Lin Xinrou sweetly laughed, "You're even younger than my little brother. If I don't call you 'young sir,' should I call you 'little brother' instead?"

Lin Xinrou's face was adorned with a flowery smile. The job of a receptionist was dull and monotonous, so upon seeing a young boy without parental accompaniment, she was a bit more casual and joked a little.

"Alright, then arrange a private bloodline room for me." Qin Chen's eyes were still wandering around the hall as he spoke indifferently.

"Young sir, if you want to awaken your bloodline, you just need to register and then queue up over there. Today, Master Chen Fan of the Holy Land is hosting the bloodline awakening. When it's your turn, just follow the person in front of you inside. There's no need to arrange a separate bloodline room." Qin Chen's adult-like tone made Lin Xinrou want to laugh.

"I'm not here for someone to awaken my bloodline. I have other matters. You just need to arrange a bloodline room for me!" Qin Chen realized the misunderstanding and spoke lightly.

Lin Xinrou was taken aback and glanced at Qin Chen. A bloodline room was a space used by bloodline practitioners to conduct awakening ceremonies, equipped with devices only usable by them.

Could this young man be planning to awaken his own bloodline?

"Sir, if you want to awaken your bloodline, it's best to have a bloodline practitioner do it. The awakening ceremony is very complex and can greatly affect your bloodline, even posing life-threatening risks. If you want to study the ceremony, you should do so with your mentor." Lin Xinrou's expression turned serious.

There had been incidents in the history of the Bloodline Holy Land where a bloodline practitioner apprentice privately attempted to awaken someone's bloodline, causing irreparable damage and almost resulting in the boy's death. The apprentice was immediately expelled and severely punished by the Holy Land.

"Don't worry. I just want to study the awakening ceremony. There won't be any danger. You don't need to worry about anything else." Qin Chen waved his hand, speaking with an undeniable tone.

Lin Xinrou felt a chill in her heart, her previous casualness evaporated.

Most visitors to the Bloodline Holy Land came seeking help and were often very respectful and humble. Qin Chen's tone, however, made her feel unable to refuse. She already labeled Qin Chen as a bloodline practitioner apprentice in her mind.

"If that's the case, please follow me." Lin Xinrou led Qin Chen to the front desk for registration. "The rental fee for the bloodline room is five hundred silver coins for an hour. Please sign here."

"Alright, here are five hundred silver coins." Qin Chen handed over the silver coins and signed his name, feeling a bit of bitter amusement at the exorbitant fee. The cost of a single awakening was one hundred silver coins, yet renting a bloodline room was five times as much.
