Chapter 2 - Genesis: How It All Started

Kali Yuga year 2024,

It marks the 10,000th Divine years since the banishment of the Asura to Narka.

India At Kashi's No. 1 High School, anticipation fills the air as more than a hundred students, all turning eighteen, gather on the sports field for their Divinity awakening ceremony.

Students of Kashi's No.1 High School who have reached age of 18 will undergo Divinity awakening today.

More than 100 students, sitting still and upright, are listening to Principal's speech.

"Dear students, after years of studying, you have learned and mastered the theoretical knowledge regarding Divinity users."

"Today is the day you awaken your Divinity, as well as the day that will determine your future Paths."

"I will spare you the pleasantries and empty words. I hope you can reach Rudra's level and become pillars of humanity."

Rudra, a former student of No. 1 High School, awakened the Highest level Thunder Divinity. At present, he is a 8th level big shot.

Principal often talks about him to inspire the students.

Kali looked at the incomplete Divinity awakening formation on the sports field, a smidge of graveness and anticipation in his eyes.

Having walked this earth for years, Kali knows what kind of world this is.

This world is a Jungle only strong survives here, here students awaken a divinty after reaching the age of 18.

To raise levels, upgrade skills, and enhance strength ones level of divinty and natural talent are most important.

At present, Divinity has a success rate of 100%. Only the question of the quality of Divinities remains.

The most popular Divinities are naturally Authority Divinities, followed by elemental Divinities, and then support and livelihood Divinities.

But this is just a rough classification. Although Authority Divinities are popular, it doesn't mean that support and livelihood Divinities are necessarily inferior.

Powerful support Divinities are also coveted. Whether it's boosting ones combat power for short time or helping others improve thier natural talents, support Divinities are indispensable.

At times, a support Divinity can be far more important than other Divinity.

The same applies to livelihood Divinities. Divinity users with incredible livelihood Divinities are also formidable.

According to Kali's understanding, whether a Divinity is amazing or not isn't directly correlated with its classification.

There are garbage Divinities and incredible Divinities.

As the final beam of light completes the formation, Principal leads the students forward. Kali walks quietly among them, pondering what Divinity awaits him.

He took the more than 100 students to the sports field.

As he followed the crowd, Kali wondered what Divinity he will awaken.

There's no way to tell what Divinity one will awaken.

Some mediocre individuals will awaken powerful combat Divinity.

Conversely, some outstanding individuals will awaken livelihood Divinities.

Although he and Avani are known as the two most outstanding geniuses of their school. However, prior to entering the formation, it is unknown whether the Divinity they will awaken is any good.

At this time, Kali felt a pat on the shoulder.

Yash walked over and asked, a smile on his face, "What Divinity would you like to awaken?"

Kali looked at the other party and shook his head, not diving an answer.

Yash carried on with a smile, "You can tell me, it's alright. I, for one, want to awaken as a Strength Divinity. As you can see, I have the makings of a Knight. By then, I will be able to protect girls."

His physique is indeed quite suitable for the Strength Divinity.

However, it is not easy to awaken a combat Divinity.

As far as Kali can tell, there's only a 10% chance that one will awaken a combat related Divinity.

As such, of the more than 100 students, no more than 15 individuals will be able to awaken a combat related Divinity.

While Yash prattled on, Kali only listened quietly, a faint smile on his face.

Kali is a quiet and reserved person. Although his grades are good, but he doesn't have many friends.

Many think that there's something wrong with him.

After he was done speaking, Yash went to talk to someone else.

Someone pulled Yash by the arm, "What are you doing talking to the mute? He won't answer you anyway."

"That's right. He just has better grades. It's nothing impressive."

"Who knows what Divinity he will awaken. Maybe it will be a livelihood Divinity."

Kali isn't too popular among his peers. In fact, many think that he is cold and arrogant.

That he is looking down on others because of his good grades.

Yash smiled and said, "Actually, Kali just doesn't like talking."

It's a pity, but no one believed this.

Kali didn't explain himself; there's no need for it.

When the crowd reached the formation, Principal walked up to an old man and said respectfully, "I'm sorry to have troubled you, Master Ved."

Master Ved shook his head, "It's fine."

Master Ved didn't hide his information.

[Ved, level 52, Formation Great Master.]

Kali was startled. Formation Great Master, level 52 to boot.

Formation Great Master is a superior Divinity class, a superior support Divinity, in fact, and it is rare.

Formation Great Masters are very popular on the battlefield. Once they set up a formation, anyone who enters the area will die.

After exchanging a few pleasantries, Principal and Ved walked back to the formation.

Principal took out a list and looked at the students, "The students whose name I call out are to enter the Divinity awakening formation."

"You have been taught everything you need. Don't be nervous and just relax."

"Ravi, go up!"

Ravi responded and walked into the Divinity awakening formation, feeling nervous.

The formation started with a rumble. Along with a burst of brilliant light, Ravi's Divinity awakening concluded.

[Livelihood Divinity: Low level Plant growth]

Ravi's face turned slightly pale. Who would have thought he would become a Farmer.

"Ravi has become a Farmer."

"Farmer is still okay. If it is upgraded to High level, it will be a pretty good Divinity."

"Mhm. Among livelihood Divinity, Plant growth isn't half bad."

After Ravi exited the formation, his friends comforted him.

"Kiran!"

When he heard his name, Kiran trotted into the formation.

The same brilliant light shone.

[Livelihood Divinity: Craftsman's Ember.]

Kiran was quite satisfied with his Divinity, "My dad is also a Craftsman with Craftsman's Ember. Who would have thought I would as well. I'm basically following my father's footsteps."

"Anjali."

"Neha."

One after another, students awakened their Divinity, with most being livelihood releated Divinity.
