Chapter 162  Evelyn's turn

Chapter 162

He took out his sword, and the roaming thunder streak merged with the blade.

The sword seemed to vibrate with strong power, glowing with a fierce, electric blue.

He swung the sword, and a wave of lightning thunder traveled from it, directly blasting apart the wooden chair he aimed for.

"This is power! Hahaha!"

He laughed as he swung his sword a few more times, properly adapting to the power of the spirit. Each swing felt more natural, the sword becoming an extension of his own arm.

Each swing sent arcs of lightning through the air, his laughter mingling with the crackle of electricity.

"Alright, brat, get back. Next one, come forward." Sigfor nodded and called for the next person to step up.

He was internally satisfied that Daniel managed to summon a thunder spirit, matching his attribute. While it was an unranked spirit, it was still impressive for his age.

In this world, except for children born with a contracted spirit, very few could summon one before the age of ten.

And while Daniel was swinging his sword, Sigfor managed to glimpse something more from his body.

A faint glow pulsed around Daniel, indicating a deeper connection to the thunder element than he had initially thought.

If his guess was correct, Daniel was most probably born with a special constitution. It was likely related to the thunder element itself, given how effectively he could conduct the spirit.

Amber went next. The same thing happened, and in the end, she managed to summon an Earth spirit.

A small, glowing figure of rock and soil danced around her fingers, responding to her every command.

Tiny pebbles floated around her hand, creating a delicate and intricate orbit.

Next was Alphonso, who, after some difficulty, managed to summon a Wind Spirit. He took almost five whole hours to summon the spirit.

The air around him swirled gently, lifting his hair as a faint whisper of wind echoed in the hall. Each breath he took seemed lighter, as if he was in sync with the very air itself.

After he was done, Nadia went forward, and within minutes, a chilling ice spirit was at the tips of her fingers. It was still and controlled—fully obedient to her.

A tiny figure of frosty light clung to her hand, the air around her cooling noticeably. A thin layer of frost spread from her fingertips, glistening like morning dew.

Sigfor praised her; she was definitely extremely talented to be able to summon a spirit so quickly.

"Next."

It was the protagonist's turn!

It was Evelyn that went up next. The moment she stepped in, the array began to work on its own without any input from Sigfor, making him surprised.

'She can already connect to the spirit realm at her age!? Impossible!'

His eyes went wide when he saw her effectively activate the array without doing anything. His body shook slightly; he had never seen such a genius before.

'This girl is a true monster!' he deduced instantly, his heart racing wildly as he imagined the boundless potential of the girl.

'The Celestial Paradox Clan has produced a true monster this generation!'

Evelyn was already plenty talented. With her light element, Sigfor knew that there would be few who could stand against her in the future.

Not even a minute had passed before a blinding white light covered the entire array. It was so bright that people felt it was akin to staring at the sun!

The light radiated warmth, filling the room with a serene, comforting glow.

As the light slowly started to dull, they all saw Evelyn standing, and in front of her was a floating ball of light. n/ô/vel/b//jn dot c//om

"T-This is an intelligent spirit!?" Sigfor muttered in absolute shock as he immediately went forward, standing next to her, observing the ball of light.

"Elder, can you explain what you meant?" Oliver asked from behind, making him come out of his trance.

He coughed twice as he cleared his throat.

"While this should not be of use to you, now that the situation demands it, I will tell you, spirits are classified into ranks depending on their rarity, power, and abilities."

"What rank?" Amber wondered.

"Spirits are classified by the exorcists' union from D-rank to S-rank. The higher the rank a spirit is classified into, the stronger it is. S-rank being the strongest and D-rank being the weakest."

"Woah! What rank is my spirit, elder?" Daniel asked.

"Your spirit has no rank; it's not a true spirit in the first place but just a fragment of a true spirit without any intellect."

"What…?" Disappointment flickered across Daniel's face, but he quickly masked it with a determined expression.

"But this is not something to be disappointed about. Just managing to summon a partial spirit alone is very hard for children like you. Only true geniuses with great affinity to their elements ever manage to summon spirits at such an age."

Hearing Sigfor's words lifted his spirits a little.

Oliver asked, "Then what about her spirit?"

He pointed at the floating light ball.

"It's a spirit close to the peak of D-rank."

Sigfor's words sent the kids into an uproar as they quickly surrounded Evelyn, or more likely the light spirit floating aloof. The light spirit seemed to shimmer with pride, basking in their admiration.

Feeling the gazes of so many children, Oliver felt the spirit puff up slightly, turning into a slightly bigger ball.

'Amazing…' His eyes were fixed on the spirit. The next moment, his eyes shone with a certain purple glint as he used [Cosmic Void Gaze].

The spirit was radiating a potent and pure light-attributed esper—a very dense one at that.

Not to mention, he could feel a warm and fuzzy feeling just being near the spirit.

It was truly a spirit of light.

"Well done, Evelyn," Sigfor patted her shoulder as he congratulated her.

"Thank you, elder," she bowed and thanked him. Turning around, she smiled and looked at Oliver, "It's your turn now."

Oliver smiled as well. He did not know what he was going to summon.

'It might become quite interesting…' he smirked as he slowly stepped inside the array. He was eager to see what he could summon.
