I Became The Chief Of A Primitive Village

Chapter 629, Like Placing a Cup of Hot Water

Su Bai spread both hands wide, facing directly towards that pile of campfire, his mouth continuously muttering incantations.

This incantation was designed to help ordinary people awaken as Warrior Trainees, and it was lengthy. However, the overall chanting time only took twenty minutes to complete, which was somewhat shorter than the incantation chanting time of the first ceremony.

As Su Bai’s incantations ceased, the red flames within the campfire began to dance once more.

Those red flames soared into the air again, once more forming a graceful Flame Dragon.

That massive Flame Dragon circled in the sky for a long time, then exploded apart, scattering into countless small flames.

“Go forth, go and seek those you deem most suitable to become Warriors.” Su Bai called out loudly.

The two ceremonies were actually quite similar, but the real difference lay in these flames.

The flames that allowed Warrior Trainees to awaken as Totem Warriors were the key to awakening the Totem Marks.

While the flames that allowed ordinary people to awaken as Warrior Trainees were merely testing whether their bodies were suitable.

The difference between the two was quite significant. Since this was about testing whether ordinary people were suitable, these flames needed to enter the Warriors’ bodies to see if they were suitable.

*Whoosh whoosh whoosh…*

Those small flames began to disperse, wandering about in front of the ordinary people one after another.

This time was completely different from when the Warrior Trainees awakened as Totem Warriors. These small flames had only just arrived in front of the ordinary people.

Before the ordinary people could react, those small flames drilled into their bodies.

“So fast,” Da Shan clearly had not reacted yet, having just been looking up at those small flames.

The next second, those small flames had drilled into his body, and not just one or two of them.

“Weren’t those small flames just as fast before? Why have you forgotten?” Huang Ye could not help but roll his eyes.

When they had previously participated in the awakening ceremony, they had also experienced this step. The small flames at that time had also swiftly darted into their bodies.

The entire process did not take much time, unlike the first ceremony where those small Flame Dragons had to select the most suitable Totem Warriors. They had taken their time selecting, spending quite a long period. This time was different. This time, they were only seeking suitable Warrior Trainees.

These small flames only needed to penetrate the ordinary people’s bodies to see if they could endure it. There were not any other requirements.

“Do you feel any changes in your bodies?” Ah Hu looked down at his own body.

Many small flames had also penetrated his body, and the quantity was considerable.

These small flames did not burn, so when they penetrated their bodies, they did not cause any discomfort.

“Not yet, perhaps we need to wait a bit longer?” Da Shan also looked at his own body.

He was very much looking forward to what changes his body might produce, as only this way could he awaken as a Warrior Trainee.

Becoming a Warrior Trainee of the Flame Dragon Tribe had been these people’s wish for so many years, so everyone was now filled with extraordinary excitement.

If they could not awaken as Warrior Trainees this time, given their ages, it would be nearly impossible to awaken as Warrior Trainees in the future.

A person only had two chances to become a Warrior Trainee. The first chance was having the appropriate age and Physique.

The second chance came two years after failing the first selection. If this time, they still could not awaken as Warrior Trainees, that person would most likely never be able to awaken.

“I can already feel something different,” Huang Ye was the first to excitedly say.

He felt his body beginning to heat up. This sensation had never occurred in previous ceremonies.

This meant he was experiencing a different sensation within his body for the first time, and this feeling was intensifying.

“I can also feel something different!” Da Shan said excitedly, his facial expression revealing everything.

His mouth was practically splitting to his ears, and he kept spinning in circles on the spot, feeling the changes.

He looked just like a child who had found a piece of candy and was happy beyond words.

They knew this different sensation well, as previous ceremonies had never produced it.

Having this sensation during this ceremony meant they might awaken as Warrior Trainees.

They had heard that the Warrior Trainees had also first felt something different within their bodies before finally awakening.

So, after the small flames darted into their bodies, they had been anticipating this sensation to occur.

“How is it that you all feel something different? I still don’t feel anything…” Ah Hu said enviously.

Although he envied them, his heart was also beginning to grow anxious. [Why did they all feel something different while I felt nothing? If things continue like this, won’t I fail to awaken?]

“Wait a bit longer, perhaps it will come later.” Da Shan comforted him, knowing how this had felt for himself the previous time.

“Yes, look. The others haven’t felt anything different either, and they make up the majority. So, it probably won’t happen that quickly.” Huang Ye also offered comfort.

He knew that among the three of them, Ah Hu was the one most eager to awaken as a Warrior Trainee. He was also the one who most wanted to contribute to the Flame Dragon Tribe. Ever since being rescued from the Black Snake Tribe, this determination had only grown stronger.

“What does your sensation feel like now? How does it compare to before?” Ah Hu asked.

He hoped the sensation was just being delayed, and did not want to think about the possibility of being unable to become a Warrior Trainee.

“It feels like my heart is warm. This sensation is very strange, but also very comfortable.” Da Shan described.

He felt his chest continuously heating up, as if a cup of hot water had been placed against his chest.

This sensation was quite comfortable, and then this warm feeling slowly spread to his limbs.

“I can already feel warmth throughout my entire body.” Huang Ye looked at his hands in amazement.

Ah Hu kept blinking as he observed the two of them, wanting to see what changes would ultimately occur.

Just as he was feeling envious, he discovered his chest was also beginning to feel slightly warm.

But he thought it might be his imagination and kept pressing his hand against his chest to feel it.

“Are you feeling it too?” Da Shan asked excitedly, pleased that his companion could also experience this different sensation.

“There’s a little bit of difference now.” Ah Hu’s face began to show a smile.
