For the brand new blog, Is it hard to rank keywords using difficulty level 25 - 35 keywords?

Depends on how important Google thinks your site and blog are, what the PageRank of those feeds are (not that you'll be able to get that information). Some content feeds exist on news sites and some posts gain thousands of keyword rankings, even for very competitive terms. It's usually because the content becomes popular and generates online buzz
If you don't have anything particularly unique, exciting and newsworthy to share - you can even struggle to rank (on page / scroll 1) for keywords with as little as 50 monthly searches
To be honest, it's getting harder and harder for blog posts to rank, as people create more in-depth, more adventurous content pieces like this one:
https://www.google.co.uk/search?q=ferrari+v12+story (the search)
https://jbrcapital.com/ferrari-finance/v12-ferraris-the-engine-that-made-ferrari/ (the content)
I picked up on this one a while ago as (at least temporarily) it was holding numerous Ferrari related search rankings
When people are creating stuff like this, 500 words of 'just some text' isn't very inspiring anymore (unless it's critically newsworthy or from a very inspiring person / source)

It is not the keyword collection that matters and it is not the publishing platform that matters.
What matters is...
- * the knowledge and writing skill of the author
** the reputation of the author
** the substativeness, comprehensiveness, usefullness, or entertainiment value of the content
** and, the level of importance that this "blog" holds in the author's mind
If I started a new website, and gave to it the four things that matter above, I think that it would take a few years to get it producing traffic at a level that would provide a good return for my time. I am better off expanding and improving another website that I have been working on for a long time, which already has traffic and a tribe.
