Kurumi Tokisaki's Planar Journey

"Gu Yao!"

Kurumi pulled Xun Er along, looking at the kid walking toward the bloodline testing platform.

On the day she and Xun Er went to the discussion hall, this guy was exceptionally arrogant, as if he didn't put anything in his eyes.

That conceited guy walked up to them until the clan leader and elders arranged the matters. Kurumi still clearly remembered his annoying demeanour.

Simply put, this kid had an explosive level of adolescent arrogance, and his shameless attitude was astonishing to Kurumi.

Although he ended up crying and running to his elder grandpa, that grandpa witnessed everything, so without further ado, he disciplined the boy thoroughly and even apologised to Kurumi!

If Kurumi could record the black history of this future commander of the Black Abyss Army, she would be a bit excited!

Xun Er held Kurumi's little hand tightly, her big, lively eyes curiously looking around. She didn't understand how the bloodline test would impact her, only knowing that many kids her age were gathered there! If only she could be friends with them!

Unfortunately, these kids were all at an age where adolescent arrogance peaked. Each of them thought they were imposing, ignoring the goodwill of their peers.

When they grew up and recalled these moments, they would surely want to bury themselves in the ground and slap their faces!

When they were young, they could have become childhood friends with the future goddess of the Gu Clan, yet they tossed her aside because of their "pride"!

God knows how crazy these kids would be as teenagers. No wonder in the original story, when Xiao Yan appeared before them, these teenagers wanted to "enforce justice on behalf of heaven"!

Only an elder stood on the bloodline testing platform, holding a star plate.

This elder wasn't part of the Gu Clan's core management, but he held a high position with the "Gu" surname and Dou Zun-level strength.

Typically, he was responsible for the coming-of-age ceremonies and bloodline tests of the younger generation in the Gu Clan.

Elder Tong Xuan hadn't intended to come for this batch of kids' tests today, but upon hearing that the clan leader's twin daughters were among them, he couldn't suppress his excitement.

It was rumoured that Miss Mo'er had high talent, and if her bloodline concentration were equally astonishing, Elder Tongxuan was certain Miss Mo'er would become the young master of the Gu Clan's younger generation!

Elder Tongxuan was thrilled. With the clan leader, a peak Nine-Star Dou Sheng, backing Miss Mo'er and strong support from her mother's side, as long as her bloodline was good, it was time for him to choose sides!

So, the two elders who came with him could only watch from below the platform, maintaining order. They couldn't help it; they didn't have that old guy's strength.

If it weren't for the clan leader's twin daughters being part of the test, who would want to handle this troublesome task?

Elder Tong Xuan suspended the star plate before Gu Yao. The kid put away his usual arrogance, his face serious, clearly having been repeatedly reminded by his elders.

Most of the senior members didn't come to watch in person. As core managers of the Gu Clan, they had to cultivate daily and handle many clan affairs. Did anyone think they were idle?

Gu Yao activated his bloodline power, and the stars on the star plate lit up individually!

Elder Tongxuan's expression changed; the first kid had such an extraordinary bloodline concentration?!

The fifth star lit up, but the speed slowed significantly. It wasn't until Gu Yao exerted all his strength, his face turning pale, that the sixth star barely lit up.

Elder Tongxuan nodded. In the Gu Clan, a bloodline of six grades was necessary to be recognised at the coming-of-age ceremony. Gu Yao, reaching this level at a young age, promised a bright future!

One's bloodline is continuously refined from childhood to adulthood. With Gu Yao's situation, he would surely reach a seven-grade bloodline, maybe even eight grades!

An eighth-grade bloodline ensured he could become a high-ranking Dou Zun and possibly a half-saint!

Seeing Elder Tongxuan nod, Gu Yao's pale face improved slightly. Seeing the six stars shining on the star plate, he even gave Kurumi a provocative look.

Kurumi felt nothing, but Xun Er, gripping Kurumi's hand, suddenly tightened her grip!

"Sister San... he looks so annoying." Xun Er stepped back slightly, "But he seems quite strong."

"Gu Zhen!"

Elder Tong Xuan called another name, and Kurumi turned, patting Xun Er's little head, "Don't worry, Xun Er will definitely be stronger than him!"

"Really?" Xun Er's clear eyes lit up, seeming to yearn for the chance to "show off."

Even an introverted child-like Xun Er had this desire deep inside.

"Really!"

"Next, Gu Mo'er!"

Kurumi's lips twitched. Although she wanted to mock the name, she suspected her cheap father of being influenced by some unknown force when giving her the nickname "San'er!"

But with such a pure, unpretentious name and a hint of a behind-the-scenes boss, Kurumi finally accepted the name.

What? What else can you do if you don't accept it? Can the newborn "Gu San'er" grab her father's collar and force him to change her name?

As Kurumi continuously hypnotised herself, thinking names were just codes, "San'er" gained a mysterious reputation within the Gu Clan.

On the day she was born, her mother, Dou Sheng, died, the long-dormant 'Golden Emperor Burning Heaven Flame' had inexplicable movements, and it was rumoured that even her twin sister's foundation was damaged by her dominant talent!

Elder Tongxuan's old face showed an expectant expression for the first time.

The arrogant kids, led by Gu Yao, showed disdain, but their occasional glances at the platform revealed their intense curiosity about this "legendary figure" of the Gu Clan.

Kurumi was about to step onto the platform when she felt her sleeve being tugged by Xun Er.

"What's wrong?" Kurumi asked, puzzled.

Xun Er hesitated, her little face turning red, "Sis... sister, good luck! Make sure to defeat them!"

"Mm!"

The innocent smile reflected in Xun Er's pure eyes, and after a moment of daze, she saw her sister already standing on the bloodline testing platform!

Her tiny body shrank back slightly, uncomfortable being alone.

On the platform, Elder Tongxuan rarely managed a kind smile, bending down kindly, "Miss Mo'er, remember to use all your bloodline power without holding back."

Seeing the porcelain doll-like figure nod, Elder Tongxuan felt great, though still nervous!

The star plate floated before Kurumi, Elder Tongxuan's eyes sharp, "Let's start, Miss Mo'er!"
