The next person that stepped forward from the Council was a middle-aged woman with blue hair and a steely gaze.

"What are the requirements for the Bloodline Infusion, who can perform it, what is necessary, and how much does it cost?" she asked.

The Dean answered all her questions in detail.

Someone had to be at the Peak Soldier Stage, a couple of people could perform it, it needed a fitting beast and someone to do the procedure, and the cost was based on the time invested and the materials.

The woman's expression didn't change. She still looked with a cold and steely gaze at the Dean.

"Can it be performed on more powerful warriors?" she asked.

"That requires more testing," the Dean answered. "Until now, I could only focus on the Peak Soldier Stage since that is the most optimal spot to transition. However, I estimate the probability of success regarding performing the Bloodline Infusion at General Stage warriors to be above 90% and for warriors at the Commander Stage to be at around 60%."

"What about the True Path Stage?" the woman asked.

"I'm uncertain, but I believe the chances to be very low due to the special properties of the True Path Stage," the Dean answered. "The more powerful a warrior becomes, the more unique and developed their path. It is easy to find a beast for someone weak and young, but it is difficult to find a fitting beast for someone that has created their own True Path."

"Have you done testing regarding the potential increase of power by consumption of living matter filled with Mana?" the woman asked.

The warriors looked away with discomfort.

"Not yet," the Dean answered. "I wanted the first batch to be free of any potential corrupting influences, but I plan on testing that aspect later."

The woman's expression still didn't change, and she looked at the Dean for about two more seconds.

"No more questions," she said as she stepped back.

The group of warriors looked in surprise at her.

They had expected her to also argue against the Dean, but she hadn't said anything negative about the Procedure.

However, Shang, Duke Whirlwind, and the Dean noticed her approach.

While the first person had argued about ethics and philosophy, she had come from an efficiency and profitability standpoint.

She had asked all these questions in hope of finding a target.

If something regarding the Procedure were very costly, difficult to obtain, or difficult to perform, she would have had some leverage to minimize the support.
