Sitting on the throne, the big man with golden hair looked at David and Jasmine and smiled, "I heard that you guys exchanged blows yesterday. Should have invited me, so that I could also exchange some moves and see how much you guys have improved since last time we met."
Jasmine just rolled her eyes at him and David didn't even bother replying. The fat man at the side laughed, "Why not invite me? I just made a new artifact which I wanted to see."
Jasmine looked at him with disgust and said, "Joel, you and your Divine Smith Sect are too shameless. You guys just use your large number of treasures to fight. Who wants to exchange blows with them?"
David nodded his head at the side. He looked at the golden-haired man and said, "Leo, I think we should exchange blows after this ceremony ends. I want to see how much your astral manifestation ability has improved since last time."
Leo laughed, "We could do it right now if you want. Hehe..."
"Master will punish you if you try to do something during the ceremony." The red-haired boy behind Leo reminded. Leo, thinking about his master, got cold sweat on his back.
Joel said while looking at a person in the crowd below, "Let's get serious now, we should try to find good candidates here. I heard that there might even be a holy physique appearing here."
"I heard that he is a prince," replied Jasmine. "Anyways, you guys can forget about poaching him. Hehe..."
"There were dragon roars coming from heaven, the moment he was born. So, he might be related to dragons and be suitable for my sect.", Leo said from the side.
While they were arguing, the ceremony had already begun. A young man in the front row of the queue went to the middle of the platform.
The old man in the middle said, "Put your hands on the orb, close your eyes and try to focus."
The young man put his hands on the orb and closed his eyes. A while later the orb started to glow in yellow color. There were also some red particles gathering around the orb. Seeing this the old man said, "Grade 2 spiritual root with a fire affinity. It's average." He took out a talisman and used his spiritual energy to carve this information in it and handed it over to the young man. "Go, find the sect suitable to you. Next..."
In this way, many candidates went to get their spiritual roots checked. Some didn't have spiritual roots while some even had grade 3 spiritual roots. But those disciples from the big sect didn't even put them in their eyes. The majority were stuck in grade 1 or grade 2. The grade 3 spiritual root candidates were immediately poached by those middle-grade sects. Seeing this, the crowd cast envious gazes upon them.
Suddenly they saw that when a young girl put her hands upon the orb. The orb started to glow green in color. But there were no particles surrounding the orb. Seeing this the old man said, "Very good. Grade 4 spiritual root but no affinity with elements."
Seeing this talent, David, Leo, Jasmine, and Joel were also talking about her. Joel said, "She has a good spiritual root but has no affinity to any elements. What a waste...finally I thought I could find someone, sigh.."
"Indeed, our sects rely on strong affinity to elements for them to practice." Jasmine agreed.
"Our sect depends upon their bloodline. If she had a little bit of it, I could have considered it.", said Leo.
Then all of them looked at David. David finally opened his eyes, stood up, and said, "Girl what is your name?"
Seeing that she managed to grab the attention of one of the four big sects, everyone got jealous.
Even Davion exclaimed, "It looks like if you have at least grade 4 spiritual roots, you can join them. But it looks like if you have no affinity with elements, then you can't expect to get selected."
"My name is Nova." replied the young girl while bowing.
"Are you willing to join my sect?", asked David.
Nova looked at those other three thrones. Seeing them not responding. She made her decision and said, "Yes, I am willing."
David smiled and said, "Stay behind me." Nova went behind the throne and the ceremony continued.
"Our turn is coming soon," said Davion to Nisha who was standing in front of him.
"I am getting nervous," replied Nisha.
"Yeah, me too. Hope I can have a good spiritual root." Davion said.
While they were talking, it was finally Nisha's turn. "Good luck!" Davion said.
While Nisha was walking towards the orb, Jasmine was looking at her seriously.
Seeing that her Senior Sister was looking at that girl carefully with a weird expression, Emma asked, "Senior sister, what's wrong? why are you looking at her like that."
Listening to this Leo, David and Joel also wanted to know more. Seeing that everyone was looking at her, Jasmine finally replied, "I don't know her. But I think I have seen her somewhere else."
"Ohh, does it mean that she might be a genius and have a grade 5 spiritual root?", Joel exclaimed.
While they were talking, Nisha reached the center of the platform and put her hands on the orb. She then closed her eyes and focused.
