Degrade from Nobility to a Humble Slave novel Chapter 64

Zen stood among the disciples who had passed the test. One by one, more disciples emerged from the Bloody Mountain. They took turns throwing crystal fragments into the baskets.

Suddenly Zen spotted Nory jumping out of a flying chariot. He gave Zen a cheerful wave before he hurried to the baskets. Zen watched as Nory took out a handful of crystal fragments and placed them into the baskets.

Nory had passed the test too!

Zen was quite surprised. Nory was only at the bone refining level. How was it possible for him to collect ten purple fragments in the test? During the test, Zen had planned to give Nory spare fragments once he had reached the third level. However, Zen encountered the ogre and then, he didn't get the chance.

Zen didn't know how, but it seemed as though Nory had passed the Blooded Test all by himself. It was impossible for a man at the bone refining level to kill the unreal beasts in the third level. How did Nory manage it?

Could Nory have been downplaying his abilities? The thought flashed through Zen's mind.

Smiling, Nory walked over to Zen, obviously pleased with himself. "Ha! I have passed the test, Zen."

"How did you do that? How did you get enough fragments?" Zen asked.

"Well, it's a long story. The short version is that I got lucky." Then he told Zen what happened after he entered the third level. Nory happened to see two disciples from noble clans fighting each other for a fragment. At last, both disciples were critically wounded and forced out of the test. Nory took advantage and collected their fragments. That was how he passed the test.

As he listened, Zen couldn't help but marvel at Nory's good luck.

Flying chariots flew back and forth till the last of the disciples had collected in the square.

The Blooded Test was finally over.

While those who passed the test were in high spirits, those who failed looked utterly crestfallen.

The eliminated disciples from noble clans were quickly taken away by their families. They could hardly contain their resentment. Chad Zhuge shot a look of pure venom at Zen before he left. He had always prided himself on his ability before taking the test. Although this was his first shot at the blooded test, Chad had been confident that he would pass it.

After all, it was a rare thing for a disciple from the top seven noble clans to fail the Blooded Test.

Chad had never expected that Zen would defeat him. It certainly didn't sit well with him.

Zen and Nory were talking and laughing at the far side. Of course, Zen noticed the venomous look from Chad, yet it didn't concern him.

Being a body refiner was not easy. It was a long and difficult road, full of peril. Zen felt ready for the upcoming challenges. He would overcome all obstacles in his way. Now that he had decided to go down this road, Zen knew he must not fear making some enemies.
