They left the evaluation room and were brought to another room where they would pick the refinement techniques to train in. The information acquired by the machine will be used to query the database of techniques and compatible ones will be selected to train in. Refinement techniques are unique training methods with stringent requirements but will provide a faster rate of improvement. These refinement techniques have many advantages over the mainstream training methods because they have been modified by Origin ancestors of the family. The modified refinement techniques are perfect for those with royal bloodlines because with them, the bloodline with be fully utilized. Some refinement techniques will even purify the bloodline within those that train it. After all, there is no one more familiar with a bloodline than the source.
The Ghastorix family has a relatively long history, so it has acquired numerous refinement techniques. They are the treasures of the family because they are the condensation of the refinement experience of Origin gods. But the selection of a refinement technique to train in is a very important matter. The wrong one can butcher the future of an incompatible user.
Ghaster was found to have a god-level talent for the lightning element and a top-level talent for the law of destruction. His bloodline was a perfect match with that of the Ghastorix ancestor.
"There are multiple compatible options for your young boy here. But the best one will require the use of special materials. It has been revised by ancestor Ghastorix and many other great ancestors that came after. It is just very expensive to use. The special materials are not easy or cheap to acquire." The supervisor displayed the various compatible refinement techniques for Ghaster, he explained the advantages and disadvantages of each of them. The possession of multiple talents will allow for faster training options, only if all the talents are made use of. The lightning element is a pretty common talent in the Ghastorix family, so there were a lot of suitable options. The law of destruction in his bloodline made things more difficult. The best refinement techniques for him are those that work in tandem with both lightning and destruction, but the law of destruction is difficult to train in. It would be costly to train in destruction.
"Don't worry about that. Just show us the best ones." Mihila demanded unfazed. Soverick was secretly surprised by their extravagance. The refinement technique they chose for Ghaster will cost an arm or leg.
Litori was determined to have a god-level talent for fire and a top-level talent for the law of the soul. She didn't have a lot of options because of her second element, only one option could take advantage of her two affinities. Her bloodline was rare, it came from an external source and had a low rate of awakening in the family. Such cases were not rare, bloodlines will often mix up because of inter-family mingling. The most suitable refinement technique for her would incur even more costly than the one selected for Ghaster because of the rarity of soul materials.
The cost of training in these refinement techniques is due to the use of external materials that can supplement and augment the bloodline. It is not due to the cost of the refinement technique itself. The refinement technique is very expensive but it is given freely to privileged children of the family with awakened bloodlines. Soverick and the other two have been accepted by the family and granted this privilege because of two reasons. Their father is an honored member of the family and they were also granted their privileged status when the sovereign inspected them in the womb.
Materials that can help to train destruction and soul are very rare and difficult to purchase. But Mihila and Ghoto weren't worried at all. They only asked where they could get these materials, and were unconcerned about the cost.
Things went well until it got to the turn to select a refinement technique for soverick. There was no optimum technique for him. The available techniques can only cater to three affinity combinations at most, while he had nine god-level talents.
"His case is unique in the plane, probably in the entire realm. He will have to use the base training method." The supervisor explained the lack of options.
Ghoto and Mihila didn't blame him, neither could they in their right mind, but that didn't mean they were happy. Mihila had been hoping that something good would come out of the evaluation for Soverick. The base training method is the original one that the ancient ancestors used even before the era of transcendence. It is the same one that those without bloodlines use. The efficiency couldn't be compared with the weakest refinement technique.
Soverick didn't care, the lack of suitable refinement technique for him didn't come as a surprise to him and he was unconcerned about it. Even if they had been able to find something for him he wouldn't use it. He is the source of his bloodline, as an origin god, he knew what was best for himself. He had been able to manipulate mana as a baby because of his powerful soul. He nurtured the bloodline fragments when he was still in the womb so he was sure he would be able to do something about his situation. Refinement techniques use the bloodline as the foundation to draw more energy for growth using the combination of talents as the source. He will just his soul as the foundation and he will be able to beat the best refinement technique for his stage.
"That will be all. It was nice having you here today. You can always return if you have any questions. It will be my pleasure to be of service to you, but I'll recommend that you go to the training academy. You will get better service there." Soon it was time to leave, the supervisor escorting them away failed to hide the eagerness in his voice. He wanted to be rid of them as soon as possible.
"Thank you for your service. It wasn't that bad at the end of the day." Ghoto said.
"We'll be going." Mihila was also eager to leave. She materialized her divine sense to create a platform. Everyone but Ghoto got on to it, then she turned the platform into a bubble. The bubble rose from the ground before accelerating steadily. Meanwhile, Ghoto left to acquire the item with life energy.
Ghaster seemed reluctant to go. He kept glancing back at the building of family affairs. Mihila asked.
"Is everything alright Ghaster? Did you forget something there?"
The question startled Ghaster.
"No, I I I was just just looking at the building. Yes, I was looking at the building." He was stuttering so bad everyone knew he was lying.
"Is that so? Alright."
Soverick guessed what was bothering Ghaster. He knew a very possible reason for the boy's reluctance to leave. It couldn't be the building because Ghaster was also reluctant to enter the building when they first got there. Ghaster was distracted back then by something outside the building. The only thing he could be sure was distracting Ghaster would be the forest or something in it. He decided to confirm it when he returned home.
"Whoa, this morning was a rollercoaster. I knew you guys were talented but I didn't think it would be this much." Kayla suddenly said.
Ghaster and litori shrugged while Soverick ignored her as he always does. Most of the things they found out today weren't new to them but they did learn some new things. Ghaster for example already knew he had a god-level affinity for lightning before today, his affinity with it made it very easy to figure it out. His ancestral memories also confirmed it. He knew that he had a second affinity but he didn't know what it was, not until he became a transcendent. Only then would he be able to actively come into contact with destruction.
Litori is the same too. Everyone knew she had a strong affinity with fire but they didn't know about her talent for the soul. Only Litori knew but she didn't know the level of her talent.
The advantage of finding out early is that he would be more prepared for that day and his training will also be faster. Training in the refinement technique as early as possible will make it easier for him to use his second element as a transcendent.
pαпdα Йᴏνê1,сòМ Their ancestral memories contain information about refinement but it's outdated and cannot compare to the updated ones in the family archive.
Kayla shook her head. Their reaction indicated that what she counted as extravagant was just normal to them. Her highest affinity is at the High level, and that is for a single element. Yet she was considered as very talented in her small family. She had been informed that she will experience things that will broaden her horizon, but this was bordering on blowing her mind.
