At this stage, around 85% of the candidates are usually eliminated.
The second round is the martial test, where opponents are decided by draw.
Competing in pairs, this round eliminates half of the remaining 15%.
The surviving 7% move on to the third round, the final test.
This stage is usually the most mysterious.
The candidates are confined in a room where they face a test of courage and loyalty.
...
For those who are eliminated, this stage is usually the most dreaded.
Only two people come out from the room in the end.
The selection officer glanced at the roster, “Julius Sutton, Mandy, congrats on joining the Silver Armor Guard.”
On October 7th, the newest members of the Silver Armor Guard were announced.
They were two young men, who had brought pride to their families henceforth.
“From this moment on, your lives no longer belong to your families, nor to yourselves, but belong to the Holy Master.
You will discard foolishness, ignorance, and cowardice, protect the Holy Master with wisdom, loyalty, and bravery.
This will be your lifelong, unwavering mission.”
“Yes.” The two men knelt and spoke together.
“Excellent.
From today onwards, you will leave your past behind, and the Holy Master will give you new names.”
At the break of dawn, Aubree Groove stepped into the mysterious Holy Temple.
The silence was as if time had stopped, inducing an involuntary fear from within.
Aubree walked quietly along the central aisle, about to meet the most mysterious Holy Master.
As she entered the magnificent hall, it was brightly lit.
The three-story tall baroque architecture was regal and splendid, vibrant murals on the wall delivering a visual shock, filled with an aura of freedom and mystery.
Aubree didn’t take a second glance, she obediently lowered her eyes.
Though she didn’t see a single person in the hall, she could feel a dozen pairs of eyes silently observing her every move.
During the lengthy wait, both she and Mandy remained motionless with their heads down, almost looking like they were in a meditative trance.
Those who made it this far were exceptional; it seemed her fellow candidate was even better suited to this environment.
After an unknown passage of time, Aubree heard a series of delicate footfalls and a faint fragrance wafted into her nostrils.
With her eyes downcast, Aubree thought without revealing any expression.
This is the scent of Sheelan Grass.
The grass usually coexists with Cloud Turtles.
Cloud Turtle is an extremely rare species of turtle that lives in the deepest part of the ocean.
According to the Ancient Medical Scripture, the grass growing in the shell crevices of Cloud Turtles is Sheelan Grass, which is more precious than thousand-year-old ginseng.
Its magical effects of resurrection and longevity enhancement was legendary but it’s actual existence remained unconfirmed.
The scent of Sheelan Grass according to the Ancient Medical Scripture was said to be stronger than Gaharu Fragrance and could influence one’s mind.
The individual finally stopped in front of the beaded curtains of the side hall.
After a while, a gentle voice could be heard, as comforting as a mother’s embrace in childhood.
Under the influence of the mysterious scent, it was easy to get entranced.
“Are you this year’s new members of the Silver Armor Guard?”
The most beautiful voices Aubree had heard until now came from Anton Cook and Prince Brooklyn.
But this voice, different from the deep magnetism of men’s voices, had an indescribable charm and gentleness that intrigued the listener, making them captivated.
Even if hell lies ahead, they would willingly walk into it.
The Holy Master was a woman.
Aubree lowered her head even more, together with Mandy, they spoke almost in unison, “Subordinates pay their respects to the Holy Master.”
