Imperial Capital, the Zhou Family.
Zhou Haoyu glanced at the people lined up ahead. These individuals, like him, were here to undergo their magic awakening.
In front of the queue was a small cylindrical platform, about a ter tall.
Standing beside it was a middle-aged man, dressed in a custom-made gray-white robe.
This person was a professional Awakener, specially invited by the clan head from the Imperial Capital Magic Association. The Awakening Stone was uniformly regulated by the Magic Association.
Even children of noble families had to receive permission from the Magic Association to undergo magic awakening.
Although one could awaken their magic after entering a Magic High School, there were two obvious drawbacks.
First, the Awakening Stones distributed to the schools contained more impurities, making the awakening process full of uncertainties.
Second, magic awakening required one to be at least fifteen years old. If a student could only awaken at school, they might waste several months or even nearly a full year of cultivation ti.
Now, with two months remaining before Magic High School started, soone with good talent could already control two or three Stars within that ti.
This was also one of the reasons why commoner mages found it hard to compete with those from noble families.
"Xiaoyu, are you ready?"
At this mont, a tall and dignified middle-aged man walked up to Zhou Haoyu.
"What's there to prepare? It's all luck and fate. Anyway, with you backing up, Dad, what's there to worry about?"
Zhou Haoyu glanced at his father and spoke indifferently.
Zhou Hong's face instantly dropped. Speaking of relying on parents so confidently—what a talent indeed.
"Can't you have a bit of ambition? If your talent is outstanding, your grandfather will allocate more resources to you, understand?" Zhou Hong said, clearly displeased.
"How can anyone say that for sure? It all depends on luck."
Zhou Haoyu shrugged. Of course, he understood the deeper aning. Even if the clan head was his grandfather, it wasn't possible to pour all resources into him alone.
By now, the Awakener from the Imperial Capital Magic Association had already started the process for the others. There were only six people ahead, so it was soon Zhou Haoyu's turn.
Among the six, two had awakened the Fire Elent. That was already a very high probability, which showed the quality of this Awakening Stone was quite good.
Just as Zhou Haoyu was about to place his hand on the Awakening Stone, Zhou Hong quickly stepped forward and handed several lustrous stones to the Awakener:
"Use these Guiding Stones as well."
The Awakening Stone was not for sale, but Guiding Stones were.
Basic-level Guiding Stones weren't overly expensive, but not everyone could afford them.
"Summoning Elent Guiding Stones?" The Awakener was clearly stunned, then turned to Zhou Hong and asked, "Are you sure?"
The probability of awakening the Summoning Elent at the Basic Level was extrely low even lower than the Lightning Elent. Even with the assistance of Guiding Stones, the chance remained minimal.
It would've made more sense to buy Lightning Elent Guiding Stones instead.
"I'm sure," Zhou Hong replied calmly.
Zhou Haoyu didn't say anything, but this definitely added pressure on him.
If he ended up awakening the Light Elent, wouldn't that be too embarrassing?
The Awakener said no more and quickly arranged the Guiding Stones around the Awakening Stone.
"You may begin," the Awakener said to Zhou Haoyu.
Zhou Haoyu nodded and placed his hand on the Awakening Stone, closing his eyes to enter the spiritual realm.
Zhou Hong, standing beside him, kept his eyes fixed on the Awakening Stone's reaction. If Zhou Haoyu could awaken the Summoning Elent, then more resources could be allocated to him, and even a Contract Beast could be arranged in advance.
Before long, the Awakening Stone began to emit a dazzling violet light. The entire room was bathed in this purple glow.
"Lightning Elent!!"
Zhou Hong and the Awakener both revealed surprised expressions. Although it wasn't the Summoning Elent, the Lightning Elent was undoubtedly an extrely powerful magic elent.
Once the awakening was complete, Zhou Haoyu opened his eyes only to suddenly see sothing glowing brightly above the Awakener's head.
Zhou Haoyu rubbed his eyes uncertainly and looked again. There was still a treasure chest!
[Activation Conditions: t]
[Opening...]
[Acquired: Spiritual Origin Power ]
The next mont, before Zhou Haoyu could withdraw his hand, the Awakening Stone burst into silver light even more intense than the previous violet glow!
"This is... Space Elent?"
The Awakener was so startled by the sudden developnt that he stumbled and nearly fell. Zhou Hong quickly helped him up.
To awaken two elents at the Basic Level, with the second one being Space?
Was that even reasonable?
"Innate Dual Elents!!"
Zhou Hong's face lit up with joy. He had already accepted the initial result, but now Zhou Haoyu had given him an enormous surprise!
Lightning plus Space this was far superior to a single Summoning Elent!
"Congratulations," the Awakener said after calming down, addressing Zhou Hong.
While Zhou Hong and the Awakener were chatting, Zhou Haoyu had no interest in listening to their conversation.
Before crossing over, Zhou Haoyu had at least been sothing of a bookworm, so he quickly pieced together what was going on.
This treasure chest was clearly his cheat his golden finger, a standard issue for any transmigrator.
Without the reward from the chest, he would've only awakened the Lightning Elent. But after obtaining the treasure chest's gift, he experienced a secondary awakening into the Space Elent.
That was what led Zhou Hong and the Awakener to mistakenly assu he had innate dual elents.
Moreover, the reward wasn't as simple as just awakening Space.
Zhou Haoyu rembered very clearly that the reward stated: Obtained Spiritual Power Origin, not "Awakened the Space Elent."
That ant the Space Elent was likely just a byproduct.
"Spiritual Power."
Zhou Haoyu imdiately recalled the Lord of Luo City from another world. Possessing Strong Spiritual Power ant one could beco a Psychic Mage.
Of course, he wasn't certain yet. Even if it turned out to be true, he still had to figure out how to use it on his own.
All things considered, with both Spiritual Origin Power and this golden finger, Zhou Haoyu was confident he could one day stand at the summit of this world.
While Zhou Haoyu was still deep in thought, the Awakener had already left, leaving only Zhou Hong behind, watching his dazed son.
To awaken two such powerful magic elents in one go anyone else would be speechless with excitent.
"This is a Stardust Magic Tool at the Spirit Level I prepared for you beforehand. Use this for now. I'll talk to your grandfather later and see if we can get it upgraded to a Soul-Level one."
Once Zhou Haoyu ca back to his senses, Zhou Hong pulled out a brand-new Stardust Magic Tool and handed it to him.
Unlike other types of talent, innate dual elents had an obvious drawback more ti was required for cultivation.
A Basic-level mage only needed to cultivate one elent, but Zhou Haoyu had to cultivate two. One of them was even the notoriously difficult Space Elent!
If the best training resources couldn't be arranged, it might actually drag down Zhou Haoyu's potential.
"Thanks, Dad."
Zhou Haoyu imdiately smiled and accepted the tool, then glanced up at Zhou Hong's head, curious to see whether there was a treasure chest floating above him too.
Unfortunately, there wasn't one above Zhou Hong's head.
