5- Ascending and descending

Everything was going perfect for Raj, he was a genius in cultivation, he was an important member in his clan and many loved him, he was the darling of his father, mother and grandpa. He was a role model for his brother, sister and his cousins, he had best friends who would fight for him and be with him in his bad times. He had many fans in his school and many marriage alliances. He was invited by many sects after he would graduate from his school. He was engaged to the Princess of Saurastra kingdom.

.

But everything changed,

.

Suddenly he encountered bottleneck in Evolver realm and could not progress. First, he thought it was due to the fact As cultivation progresses it becomes harder to breakthrough to new levels or something similar was told when he consulted his teachers and family elder.

Raj was already an Evolver at 10 year so he thought maybe he will breakthrough soon. But unfortunately, he couldn't breakthrough when he was 11 years. Everyone tried telling him maybe he needs to calm his mind and was told to practice painting or music or poetry or something to calm himself.

He did so but still could not breakthrough and as time passed, he started panicking. Gradually everyone realized that something was wrong with Raj.

His clan and teachers tried investigating his problem but nothing could be found. Many of his friends and family members tried to console him and told him that they would help him no matter what.

Time passed, Raj was now 15 years old, many of his friends were already in demi-human level cultivation.

Rajs problem was still not solved, he was still stuck in peak of Evolver level. Even his juniors, and his brother and sister, Oliver and Olivia were now in Evolver realm.

Raj did not notice that his popularity was declining; on the surface, Raj thought everyone was consoling him and were sharing burden but what he did not notice was that his Juniors started forgetting him and were even criticizing secretly.

Gradually his family also started decreasing their resources on him. But Raj could not know that, as he was frustrated about his bottleneck. What he forgot was when someones popularity increases, their fans or admirers increase but also the people who are jealous also increases.

Graduation ceremony was approaching, as at the age of 15, Student would graduate from the school and at Graduation ceremony Students talent would be tested and based on the student's talent he or she would be having opportunities to join the top sects and continue on the path of cultivation to become strong, earn money and power, earn status and other things. Because of all this, Graduation ceremony is an important thing for the students as their future depends on it.

Gurukul ceremony ground,

Today is the day of graduation for Rajs batch. Many clans and sects related High position members have gathered at the VIP section, even the royal palace eunuch with Princes and Princesses have gathered so that they can get to know the genius students who may become their help in future when competing for Throne. Many students parents or family members have gathered in the audience stands. They want to see the results of their childrens talent and strength.

Graduation ceremony is divided into two parts.

Talent testing and Fighting.

In talent testing, there is a device which is used to measure a students talent. A Talent measuring device is divided into 9 levels. Level 1 talent is the lowest while Level 9 talent is highest and if a student is above Level 7, many clans and sects consider them their core disciples and focus on them.

At starting, Raj was considered to be Level 8 or Level 9 talent but now it is hard to determine.

Talent shows or determines a persons potential on the path of cultivation. The common talent measuring device used in Saurastra kingdom are medium level Talent measuring device. In countries normally sects or schools use low level Talent measuring device and in Empire they use high level Talent measuring device.

So, if a Level 1 or Level 2 talent measured in medium level Talent measuring device is measured in low level Talent measuring device then it might show Level 7 or Level 8 Talent. The same can be considered in high level Talent measuring device. Which means a Level 8 or Level 9 on medium level Talent measuring device might just reach Level 2 or level 3 in high level Talent measuring device.

And in Fighting part, the students are allotted certain number and whenever two numbers are drawn, they fight and the winner advances while the loser will get eliminated. The competition continues until top 100 are selected. In this way the rankings to determine the ranking, each top 100 will be allotted numbers from 1 to 100 each. And randomly two numbers are drawn, the winner moves to the next round while the loser is placed at bottom of the ranking. But if a loser is not satisfied with his or her ranking then he can challenge that person but they cannot challenge anyone above 20th rank.
