Ceremony Day 1

Waking up early to go through my morning training routine to prepare myself for the activities that took place during today's ceremony I pick up my weathered iron sword that was leaning against the makeshift bed made up of straw with animal skins.

Leaving I say goodbye to my mother after all today is the day I will receive my name during the ceremony.

Knowing how much I trained to be able to participate in this event, she gives me a warm hug.

"Don't train too much you have to be prepared to demonstrate your strength to receive a worthy name that represents the strength of our village" says my mother ruffling my hair

"Don't worry mom I'll just do a light warm-up" I said with a vibrant smile

"So small and so strong I have high hopes for tonight, get rid of these old men," she says clenching her fists excitedly with a sadistic smile plastered on her face

'Well, I didn't expect less from my crazy mother' I think looking at her attitude and I smile a little bit.

Well to sum up today's ceremony that gives names to warriors, not steel weaves often several factors are necessary for this to happen.

1° To have a minimum of 16 worthy warriors to be held in the tournament that will define who is the strongest of this new generation of warriors.

2° It has to be a day when the moon will be full to unleash our inner monkey and assume its form to test our will and control over it.

3° A food competition to test the appetite of worthy Saiyans and whoever eats the most wins.

And all these steps will be reflected in the name you receive.

Simple is not a barbaric and futile ceremony to decide one's name, but it is part of the tradition.

This ceremony is so important to Saiyans because it also decides their position in the next war, names worthy of strong people gain more prominent positions so when war comes you will fight equally noteworthy opponents.

1° You receive the recognition that is rewarded with a compatible name.

2° And a great influence on decisions of great importance that affect the village as a whole.

Leaving out of my house which was now covered with the skins of larger animals I find a village now a little more developed but still primitive.

The village evolved as time passed naturally the leather before larger animals were more easily obtained now that some warriors could fly keeping their distance from the animals harassing them to death.

Flying quickly into the nearby forest I approach the makeshift training ground in a clearing.

My training ground had giant boulders and a few broken ones here and there.

Slowly descending from the heavens I start stretching to start my warm-up, I do a few quick punches in the air followed by a few kicks.

And I start doing push-ups followed by sit-ups and then I do the weightlifting.

Lying panting on the grass I look at the sky admiring the view until I fall asleep.

A few hours later I wake up with the starlight of my planet shining under my eyes, rubbing them I stretch quickly and get into a butterfly position to train ki control making a ball of blue energy, and meditate for a few hours stopping when there is exhausted my mental energy to stay focused and get bored.

Looking at the position of the star and seeing that it was going to set in a few hours I quickly fly to the lake and jump over the water diving into the waters to hunt some animal to eat.

Spotting a huge fish chasing a school of fish I wrap myself in a blue-colored ki aura and blink from my current position looking like I used a teleportation technique appearing next to the giant fish kicking it up out of the lake and blink again appearing under the fish that had already risen in the air with my iron sword now out of the sheath I make quick movements with the sword that generates several deep cuts in the body killing it I take it by the tail and go down to the river shore to taste one baked fish.

After eating the giant fish whole and filling my belly I fly back to the village to participate in the ceremony.
