In the e training ground
Inside this training ground, around a hundred cultivators were quietly perfor their ascension Each of these people was dressed with different types of arant clothes, and their appearance left no doubt about their competence in their field
The color of their clothes belonged to many different factions, and only a few of theovernment's military corp
These individuals had been extracted from nuovernment and many factions, and each of theeneral for many years All of them had been taken away from the Observer, only moments before they could attempt their ascension on their own
One of these individuals, was Der He was sitting in the far end of the training ground, as he was the last one to arrive
Standing around these ascending generals, were the current co ell, aroup of cultivators, they would find a few peers which would ultieneration of the universal government's army
For the last few hours, one warrior after the other had left the state of e of the ascension The thousands of is were quickly decreasing in size, and their i warrior as if no quantity could ever be enough The energy they contained decreased as fast as the power of the warriors grew, and their gifts formed within their bodies
One hour after the other went by, and soon enough, all of these warriors ed to complete their ascension Froeneral which could lead billions to battle, and to whoift could not oppose
Ast all of these warriors, Der was the only one that had failed He was still stuck in thehimself to enter the state of mind that would allow hied soon after
Instead of seeing a slow and gradual increase of Der's power, the production of his ile moment On his face, was an expression of shock, and he appeared to be looking around in hope to see so tih to catch the attention of the newly ascended warriors and old generals, who turned to look at him with disappointift of the general, and had instead gained an increase in cultivation, along with an unknown gift
”Only one has failed This was a great batch” Said a noblewoht sant clothes, and that was standing next to her nodded at her, said, ”I agree Usually, only three fourth of the candidates actually obtain the gift of the general How extre to look at the Observer which had at some point joined them, and asked ”What do you think, Observer?”
”I think that you better pay attention” Said the Observer while looking straight towards Der, as still sitting, and had now skipped through the e of his ascension
The crystals that had been placed around Der ian to decrease in size at three times the speed required by the other warriors What nobody else was feeling, however, were the invisible waves of mind power that separated theenerals, the old co in the direction of his body
The looks of the people were, at first, looks of curiosity But before they could notice, their mind process had slowed down, and they had entered a trance At the sa out of proportion, while his body re had been stopped by their inability to utter a single word, until finally, the very moment the remains of the crystals disappeared, they found the Der as if he was the only one who could only lead them to battle
”DON'T MAKE HIM SPEAK!” Shouted the observer to the generals, which imoing on
They desperately stood up, and tried to prevent Der fro, they heard a voice that coers of a puppeteer controlled the threads that moved the puppet
”STAY BACK!” Said Der with a do all of those who had heard hi Even the observer, who hadn't been affected by Der's aura at first, could not help but obey his orders now
”H-He has the gift of the W-Warlord” Said one of the kneeling generals with extreme worry From what they knew, only one other Warlord had appeared in history, and after obtaining this gift, he had been able to control the newly forovernment for tens of thousands of years
Der was unsure of what his gift was, so the first thought that came to hisat one of the older generals ”Open a-” His words were interrupted by a grily randoerous was about to arrive
This simple action caused the mind of the Observer to fall into panic Only he could have possibly seen the arrival of those who he had requested support from ”HE HAS THE SIGHT! HE IS AN OBSERVER!!” He shouted in what appeared to be eneral, which immediately stood up, teleported in front of him, and opened a portal in space
Just as he was about to leave, Der turned to look at this general, and said, ”Cover ht behind hieneral took control over the space, and erased any trace of the spatial essence which could have left a trace that linked the recently closed portal, and its destination
”NOOOOO!” shouted the observer But it was too late

At the saround palace of the ancient eleht line They were looking at a young man with expressions of extreme happiness The very essence of which their bodies were ht of hi that had ever existed before He was standing above a s his back to the seven ancient elementals The power eed between flashes of sudden white light, warround, shi+ny usts of wind, and gentle streams of water Around his neck, was a necklace made out of seven pearls Each of these pearls felt similar to perfect essence spheres, and yet, somewhat older
In truth, these pearls were essence spheres formed out of the treasures that were born from the remains of the first perfect elementals to ever exist, and while they appeared to be an accessory to this man, they were actually a part of his body
”I I didn't think this would be the result” Said the ancient water eleht next to hirow in his presence It is like being witness of the primordial state of the ele looking lightning elemental, which couldn't help but take a step forward, and stare at the h to help hirow into the champion that nature deserves”
