Chapter 6: Awakening Ceremony

It is finally the day; all the 15-year-old youngsters will be tested in the awakening ceremony. Many kids and their parents have excitement in their faces, expecting to awaken high-rank soul beasts and talent and start their cultivation journey.

The Rewa city church holds the awakening ceremony. Only a big clan and sects have their awakening ceremony materials, which are a treasure in the eyes of ordinary people.

Many cultivators from their sect visit the church every year for the recruitment of talented youths and increasing their sect power.

The prominent sect and first-grade sect rarely directly recruit any disciple. Their auxiliary branch sect comes for the recruitment of disciples. Then every year, the auxiliary branch sect sends their topmost disciples to the main sect through competition.

But some oddities directly enter the main sect through strength, talent, and connections.

All the members of the Dwivedi clan are present in the awakening ceremony to watch their new generation perform.

"Hey, it's not the loser kritos and his sister with his fat body. I don't think he will have any talent, may have some pig soul best, haha," said the youth of the Dwivedi clan.

"Fuck, he will destroy the reputation of our clan. He will be only embarrassed by coming here," said other youth

"Well, his sister looks damn hot, I want to pursue her, but she sticks with his older brother like glue."

"Yeah, someone who depends on his younger sister and younger brother."

"haha," all the youth in the Dwivedi clan start laughing, they don't want to recognize him and his sister as a member of the Dwivedi clan, after all, due to his mother, daughter of clan head running away with a peasant, all other clans in the city mocks Dwivedi clan for their teaching.

"Silent, you guys need beating, think what will happen when the clan head or big brother hears your curses," said a tall, handsome-looking man.

Everyone knows their big brother will punch their face and kick their butt if he hears. After all, big brother is a cousin of kritos, grandson of clan head. Fortunately, big brother is busy with his training and will be late for the ceremony.

Kritos heard most of their words. He tightens his fingers and feet, wanting to smash their head, but he knew he couldn't.

"Let's start the awakening ceremony," said the Bishop of the church, after which one colorless orb and tall pillar reveals to everyone in which seven colors are present red, orange, yellow, green, blue, indigo, and last violet like a rainbow color.

" Now, the awakening ceremony officially begins, come one by one, by their name," said the bishop while sitting with the sect's recruitment elders.

The colorless orb will tell you about your talent, and the pillar will tell the rank of your soul best.

First joseph black

Talent - trash(no element)

Soul beast - Mortal

Miya Augusta

Talent - low rank low grade( water element)

Soul beast - water lizard ( Rank 1 )

...

Sam Dwivedi

Talent - mid-rank low grade (fire element)

Soul beast - Two tail fire monkey( 2 grade)

"wow," everyone grasps their saliva. It's rare to see someone with mid-rank talent with the rank two soul beast.

"haha, I know my grandson is a genius. Now our clan will stand at the top among other clans," said the 1st elder of the Dwivedi clan.

Tigrel Vishwa

Talent - mid-rank low grade( Earth element)

Soul beast - earth crocodile ( Rank 2 )

" Haha, old man, what were you saying? Your clan will be standing top," said the clan head of the Vishwa clan.

The 1st elder remains silent and starts cursing in his thoughts.

Clara Augusta

Talent - mid-rank mid-grade (dual element wind and lightning)

Soul beast - variant lightning hawk ( pseudo four rank )

What!!

All the audience was stunned, and this is the first time in the history of Rewa city, anyone has comes close to the rank four soul beast. They know the potential of the variant beast. Clara Augusta, from now this name will shine like a diamond. She was born to fly high like a hawk.

" Excellent, excellent, my granddaughter, you made me feel proud, haha I know you are different from others," said an old man while crying.

Clara's parents died when she was only two years old; after that, her grandfather and uncle took care of her.

"Shining flower sect wants to recruit Clara Augusta as an inner disciple," said a woman in a purple dress.

"Old hag stays away from our sect disciple," said a man from the Clean Sword sect.

"When did she become your sect disciple? You are shameless as usual, even that our sect mostly focuses on wind element and she is perfect for our sect, don't think of snatching her or I will," said, purple dress woman

"Well, I am always ready for a fight, but this righteous cultivator never attack beautiful ladies," said the man while smiling

"shameless, Clara, now you decide in which sect you want to join," said the lady

"Disciple was always wanted to join the shining flower sect," said Clara

"haha, ok, Clara, from now you are a disciple of our sect. After two days, you will come with me to join the sect."

"Disciple understands," said Clara

After that more youth comes but no one gets a good result and last now it was kritos turn.

"Kritos, place your hand on the orb," said the bishop.

Kritos walked towards the crystal and after touching it. It remains colorless, kritos focuses more, but it was no use

Talent - Trash

"Haha, I know the son of peasants would never have any talent. Why he comes here to embarrass himself."

"Maybe he is trying his pig luck."

"What you expect from lower-class people, they are born to work for us."

"Silent, he is my grandson, anyone who dares to disrespect him, I promise your end will be horrible," said the clan head of the Dwivedi clan. After the incident, he wants to give all the happiness to his daughter's children; maybe he feels guilty.

"Ok, kritos touch the pillar with your hand; maybe you have a good soul beast," said Lakhan(Clan head name)

But there was no reaction even after touching three times, the pillar remains the same, even the bishop was shocked, he knows all the humans least has a mortal soul beast, only someone who was born a cripple have no beast soul but kritos was fine, healthy with a bit fat youth.

Soul beast - No soul beast ( Cripple )

As he heard, his mind started wandering. How could he accept reality? He has to take revenge for his brother, but without any soul beast and talent, he will always be an ant for even normal demons.

His mind becomes blank as he falls on the floor.

Now, no one says a word. They know Lakhan was serious about Kritos.

Lakhan saw Kritos falling to the ground, and he quickly moved his body to pick up Kritos.

Lakhan hugged him and cried," Even you are cripple, you will live happily, from now on, I am your grandfather and guardian."

The second time in his life, Lakhan cried.

Just like that, two years passed with time...
