The first rays of sunlight had just begun to peek over the horizon, casting a warm glow over the forest. The air was still and calm, and the only sound was the gentle rustling of leaves and the distant chirping of birds. The morning had come, and with it, the final hours of the entrance test.
Many participants had already returned to the entrance of the forest, having completed their portion of the test. They gathered in small groups, chatting excitedly and exchanging stories of their adventures in the wilderness. Some looked weary and battered, their clothes torn and faces scratched, while others appeared fresh and energized, ready to take on the world.
As the minutes ticked by, more and more participants emerged from the forest, their footsteps soft and cautious as they made their way back to the starting point. Some carried the beast they contracted from their journey, while others had nothing to show for their efforts.
The anticipation in the air was palpable as the crowd of participants grew thicker with every passing moment. It was a day of reckoning, for all knew that the senior disciple who had made the entrance test the day before would soon appear to evaluate their performances and determine who would be accepted into the clan.
Suddenly, as if on cue, the senior disciple appeared in front of the participants. He was a tall, imposing figure, his long black hair pulled back into a tight ponytail and his eyes sharp and piercing. He wore the robes of the Celestial Harmony Sect, adorned with intricate symbols and markings that spoke of his mastery and authority.
A hush fell over the crowd as they took in the sight of the senior disciple, who seemed to exude an aura of power and wisdom. All eyes were on him as he surveyed the group with a piercing gaze, sizing up each participant and evaluating their potential.
For a moment, there was only silence as the senior disciple took in the scene before him. Then, he spoke, his voice ringing out clear and strong, causing a hush to fall over the gathered participants. He stood tall and imposing, his black robes swaying in the gentle breeze, his piercing eyes scanning the crowd.
"Welcome, young cultivators, to the Celestial Harmony Sect," he began, his voice deep and commanding. "I see that you have all completed the entrance test and contracted your own beast."
The participants looked at each other, unsure of what was to come next. They had spent the past few days preparing for this moment, and they had all worked hard to tame their own Advanced-Stage Awakening Realm beast. What more could the senior disciple want from them?
But before anyone could voice their thoughts, the senior disciple spoke again, his voice taking on a mysterious tone. "You have done well, but the real test will begin now."
The young cultivators who heard this suddenly looked shocked, their eyes widening with surprise. "Excuse me," one of them said tentatively, "but didn't you say that the test was only for us to tame our own beast that is at least an Advanced-Stage Awakening Realm beast?"
The senior disciple only smiled at that statement, his eyes gleaming with a mischievous glint. "It's true that I said you needed to tame your own beast," he replied, "but I did not say that it was the only test earlier."
ραпdα nᴏνɐ| сom The participants exchanged confused looks, unsure of what the senior disciple was getting at. But before they could ask any more questions, the senior disciple continued, his voice ringing out with authority.
"This final test is designed to assess your ability to work in harmony with your beast. Contracting a beast is only the first step in becoming a true cultivator. Your ability to communicate, cooperate and synchronize with your beast is what sets you apart from the rest."
He paused, his eyes scanning the crowd, and the participants held their breath, waiting for him to continue.
"Each pair will be pitted against another pair, and the battle will be fought until all pairs had participated in the fight. You will be evaluated on your communication, your strategy, and your teamwork. The stronger your bond with your beast, the higher your chances of success."
The participants looked at each other, their expressions a mixture of apprehension and excitement. They had come this far and worked hard to contract their own beasts, but they had no idea that there was another test waiting for them.
The senior disciple's voice broke through their thoughts. "Remember, this is not a test of individual strength. It is a test of teamwork and harmony. If you and your beast can work together seamlessly, then you have a chance of succeeding in this test."
The crowd grew silent as the gravity of the situation sunk in. As the senior disciple walked away, the participants huddled together, discussing strategies and trying to come up with a plan of attack. They knew that the next battle would be tough, but they were determined to prove their worth and pass this final test.
Suddenly, the senior disciple's voice boomed through the clearing once again, calling out the first pair for the test. "For the first pair, please come Aurora and Dave," he announced, his voice echoing across the forest.
As soon as her name was called, Aurora stepped forward with an ice-cold demeanor, her face betraying no emotion. She was a force to be reckoned with, her sharp features and piercing gaze setting her apart from the rest of the participants.
Her long bluish hair flowed down her back, shimmering in the sunlight like a stream of liquid silver. Her face was serene, her features delicate and finely chiseled, and her eyes were like two pools of ice, cold and unforgiving. This was Aurora, and she was a force to be reckoned with.
As she stepped forward to take her place in the arena, Aurora exuded an air of icy detachment, her demeanor cool and collected. Her lithe body was clad in a simple yet elegant set of white robes, the fabric hugging her curves and emphasizing her toned physique.
