Chapter 45: Lin Ze: Long Haochen is not trustworthy, follow me!
Among the people present, except for Long Xingyu, the other three were curious about Lin Ze's current spiritual power.
Especially Cai'er—she had seen Lin Ze break through the fourth level with her own eyes.
"Come on, Lin Ze!"
Just when everyone was watching silently, Long Haochen suddenly spoke.
Facing Long Haochen's encouragement, Lin Ze also nodded.
Slowly walking in front of the spiritual power test column, Lin Ze was just as eager to know what his current spiritual power had reached.
Taking a deep breath, Lin Ze's eyes gradually sharpened.
Gathering the spiritual power in his body into his arms—in that instant, the originally calm hall was stirred by a whirlwind, gathering toward Lin Ze's arms.
In the eyes of Long Xingyu and the others, Lin Ze's body suddenly burst forth with a terrifying aura of blood energy.
"How is this possible?!" Long Xingyu's eyes widened in disbelief.
How old was Lin Ze, and he could actually release spiritual power?
And judging by this aura, Lin Ze had clearly already completed the awakening ceremony and awakened the unique bloodline of the Warrior Temple!
The release of spiritual power marked the fourth level.
At this moment, Zara, the elder from the Warrior Temple, also widened his eyes. He had never imagined that Lin Ze could actually release spiritual power!
This… was simply too incredible!
At the side, Cai'er lifted her chin slightly, watching the astonished faces of the others.
As if to say—how about that? You never expected Lin Ze to already be at the fourth level.
Under everyone's gaze—
Bang!
Lin Ze did not choose a weapon, but directly struck the spiritual power test column with a heavy punch.
The spiritual power column instantly began to climb at an astonishing speed!
10…
50…
100…
200… 300...
400…
500…
513!
The final number stabilized at 513!
For a moment, the hall was terrifyingly silent.
513!
This was already the spiritual power of a fourth-level War Master!
With this level of strength, in a small place like Odin Town, he would already qualify as an instructor.
Elder Zara slowly walked toward Lin Ze—he was so flustered that he nearly tripped over himself.
When he reached the test column, he knocked on it, muttering: "Is this thing broken?"
He still couldn't believe Lin Ze's spiritual power was so terrifying.
What a joke—eight years old!
Could an eight-year-old possibly have this kind of spiritual power?
Even Long Haochen was stunned, his voice stuttering: "Lin… Lin Ze, you… you're a fourth-level War Master!"
"I think so…" Lin Ze nodded calmly.
Zara scratched his head.
No, his head itched… and the feeling still wasn't enough.
Long Xingyu was also watching Lin Ze closely.
After a long silence, he couldn't help but ask, "How old are you now?"
Hearing this, Lin Ze frowned. He disliked this man very much and replied coldly: "Why should I tell you?"
As soon as Lin Ze said that, the room went dead quiet.
Even Long Xingyu didn't expect Lin Ze to speak to him in that tone.
Zara quickly stepped in, realizing the atmosphere was tense, and smiled apologetically at Long Xingyu. "Sir, this child is just a little hot-tempered. Please don't mind it. As for his age… it's a bit sensitive… better kept secret…"
Zara was no fool. After some thought, he was confident the test result was accurate.
And thinking further—if he reported Lin Ze's existence, he might even get promoted.
Who would've thought such a genius could appear in such a remote town?
A fourth-level War Master under nine years old—this had never happened in all of human history!
And he had more questions: Who exactly was Lin Ze? He had been in Odin Town all this time, yet Zara had never heard of someone like him.
And the one who had conducted Lin Ze's awakening ceremony must have been a hidden expert.
"Lin Ze, let's go. I'll take you back to the Warrior Temple." Zara was ready to leave.
Right now, he wanted to avoid entanglement with the Knight Temple.
The fewer people who knew about Lin Ze's spiritual power exceeding 400, the better.
Lin Ze was surprised by Zara's enthusiasm but replied, "Senior, Cai'er hasn't been tested yet."
Zara hesitated, then said, "Your sister doesn't need to be tested. She's already passed!"
"You come with me."
Lin Ze was relieved. Better not to test—Cai'er belonged to the Assassin Temple, and doing the test publicly risked exposure.
Stepping forward, Lin Ze gently took Cai'er's hand and said, "Cai'er, let's go."
Cai'er was momentarily stunned when he grabbed her hand, but didn't resist.
However, before they left, Lin Ze hesitated, then looked at Long Haochen and said: "Long Haochen, I don't think he's trustworthy. Why don't you come with us?"
Lin Ze was genuinely uneasy about leaving Long Haochen in the hands of that man.
But as soon as Lin Ze said that, both Zara and Long Xingyu's expressions darkened.
Looking at Long Xingyu's gloomy face, Zara quickly scolded Lin Ze, "What nonsense are you saying? Long Haochen is a knight of the Knight Temple—we're from the Warrior Temple. Let's leave, quickly!"
After throwing in a couple of sharp words, Zara then turned to Long Xingyu with an awkward smile. "Apologies, sir. The child is ignorant. Please don't take it to heart."
Long Xingyu had never been so insulted before. But as a Divine Seal Knight, it was beneath him to argue with a child.
Besides, Lin Ze had completed his awakening at such a young age and had terrifying power—he must be the disciple of some great figure.
Seeing that Long Xingyu remained silent, Zara quickly pulled Lin Ze and left the Knight Temple.
When he noticed Long Haochen didn't follow, Lin Ze didn't insist.
He wasn't foolish. If he truly angered the mysterious powerhouse, the dark aura on him would surely erupt in a real confrontation.
As Lin Ze disappeared from view, Long Haochen finally came back to his senses.
It wasn't that he didn't want to go with Lin Ze—he simply didn't believe the man before him would harm him. Even though it was their first meeting, Long Haochen felt an inexplicable sense of closeness to him.
At this moment, Long Xingyu saw Long Haochen gazing at him and thought that perhaps Lin Ze's words had shaken him.
After a pause, he looked at Long Haochen and said:
"Long Haochen, do you know who I am?"
Long Haochen shook his head.
"I am your father—Long Xingyu. Do you still think I'm untrustworthy?"
Long Haochen: "!!!"
