list files in ascending order
Clash Royale CLAN TAG#URR8PPP
.everyoneloves__top-leaderboard:empty,.everyoneloves__mid-leaderboard:empty,.everyoneloves__bot-mid-leaderboard:empty margin-bottom:0;
I am trying to display file names(with complete path) based on the created timestamp in ascending order.
if files exists: display files with complete directory path in asc order.
if files do not exists: display nothing.
But first line in output displays "total xxxx". (I don't want this one)
ls -ltr /dir1/subdir1 | awk 'print $9'
ls

You don't need the -l option to make ls sort by modification time.
To remove the “total …” line, pipe through tail -n +2 (start printing at the second line, i.e. skip the first line).
ls -tr /dir/subdir1 | tail -n +2
Note that this uses the modification time, not the creation time. Most unix variants don't store the creation time, and anyway it's a dubious concept (there's an ambiguity between modifying a file, and creating a new file which is moved on top of the existing one).
