Numerous people had gathered on the platform. It seemed that many had successfully passed the initial trial.Originally, Adrian had no intention of participating in this trial. However, participating was necessary since he wanted to obtain some useful information. After all, participating in the trial would not only grant him access to Frostspire but also enable him to investigate any potential leads within.There were quite a few individuals clad in robes, and Adrian figured that they were Frostspire members. At present, they were preparing for the entry assessment.Many of them offered greetings to Amara when they passed by her. Apparently, Amara held a considerable position within the faction.Suddenly, a tall figure appeared in front of Amara. He was a man in his 20s with a robust stature and a remarkable appearance.As soon as this man appeared, Amara immediately stopped in her tracks and greeted, "Hi, Rubern."Rubern nodded and smiled. "It has been a long time, Amara. We ha

Amara said, "His arrogance may come from his high status."Adrian fell silent. When a person reached an unprecedented position, they often lost themselves in it, just like Rubern. Even though he held an extremely high status in the faction, he seemed to have lost himself in his own power.At that moment, all those who passed the first trial gathered in the square's center while the Frostspire apprentices stood on both sides. Among them was Amara, who kept her eyes firmly on Adrian. Standing alongside her, Rubern observed Adrian with a peculiar expression.Adrian knew Rubern was watching him, so he looked back at him firmly.Rubern frowned and averted his gaze. Even though Adrian had no idea about Rubern's intention, he was convinced he was plotting something dubious.After a while, an old man with long white hair and a beard walked out from the main hall in front of the square. He was called Edmund Ashcroft and the elder responsible for the new intakes in Frostspire.Standing bef

Edmund's words brought Adrian back to reality from his thoughts."Everyone must adhere to the rules, including those of us practicing celestial arts. I understand you all aspire to become Frostspire apprentices, but we'd never make an exception for those who fail the assessment. Even if our Frostspire were to perish, it wouldn't matter!"If anyone speaks such words again, we will not show you any mercy! Those among you who pass the first assessment are considered somewhat capable. Feel free to leave if you feel the upcoming assessments are too challenging. The rest, follow me inside!"With that, Edmund walked into the Arcane Observatory.The square became noisy, with many people discussing what had just happened. Some who recognized their own inadequacy shook their heads and left. There were only around 200 people left. Only now did Adrian understand why the number of Frostspire apprentices was not large. Nevertheless, he was aware that those who stayed were the cream of the crop

Before Garrison knew anything, he felt a heavy impact on his chest and was sent flying into the distance.Meanwhile, the other participants had completed their sparring sessions. While most of them were engaged in friendly exchanges, there were a few of them who knocked their opponent out, like what Adrian did to Garrison.However, it was not a main issue as Frostspire could provide healing for the injured, and they could stay until they had fully recovered.The 100 winners could now proceed to the next assessment. If they successfully passed the third round, they would officially become new members of Frostspire.At that moment, everyone looked excited. After all, they had successfully cleared two assessments, and passing one more would grant them entry into the faction. How could they not be happy?*The third round of assessment was a test of mental strength. All newcomers were now seated cross-legged with their minds relaxed and eyes closed. After a moment, Adrian felt as i

Caught in the grip of fear, Adrian started to move backward. Unfortunately, there was a wall behind him, leaving him cornered and trembling.Strangely, he felt an overwhelming sense of fear now. In the past, he could handle any situation with composure. Even when he was at his wit's end, he had never felt this scared.The man kept coming closer. Adrian's heart raced, and he nervously closed his eyes.Suddenly, the fear disappeared, but he hesitated to open his eyes. In the dark, it felt like he was reliving his entire life, from birth to growing up. However, what confused him the most was why he had these memories when he came from Earth. Just when he was wondering the reason, he suddenly remembered something. His inner desire! He had read that monsters could exploit deep vulnerabilities, turning them into unexpected illusions. Many struggled with these illusions due to their inability to control their inner fears.Upon thinking that, the fear in his heart disappeared in an ins

After introducing themselves, they brought them away. This was also considered a trial for the Frostspire apprentices. After all, guiding new apprentices not only taught them but also provided the instructors with valuable experience.However, Adrian remained standing in his place as no one came to take him away. He was puzzled as to why nobody approached him. He had not seen Amara since entering the hall and did not know anyone to ask for guidance.Just as he hesitated, someone suddenly tapped him on the shoulder from behind. Startled, he turned around to find Amara standing there with a smile on her face. Sighing in relief, he asked, "You came at the right time. Why am I the only one..."Amara chuckled and said, "The elders noticed your exceptional performance in the trials. As a result, they decided to assign me to personally guide you.""What? You're my guide?" Adrian was startled.Smiling, Amara replied, "Yes."Adrian then recalled the respectful expressions on the faces o

To Adrian's surprise, Rubern was already waiting outside the main hall. He looked at Adrian and said, "The elders have instructed you to come with me to Nebula Sanctum."His words were cold and devoid of any emotion. Apparently, he was displeased with Adrian and Amara being together.Adrian glanced at Amara, feeling a bit unsure.Amara nodded and said, "It's okay, you go with him. I'll wait here for you."Hearing Amara's consent, Rubern said, "Let's go."Frostspire was situated on a tall mountain. The main hall was located on the mountainside, and Nebula Sanctum was at the mountain's peak.Nebula Sanctum served as another important meeting place for elders to discuss major matters. Ordinary apprentices were not allowed to step in, except when there were issues to be addressed or interrogations to be conducted.Therefore, it was not generally a good sign for an apprentice to be summoned to Nebula Sanctum.However, Adrian was just a newly admitted apprentice and was not well-info

Adrian responded with a nod, took a deep breath, and pushed open the large door. Upon entering, he found the interior to be spacious and bright despite the absence of windows.The faction's founder's statue occupied the center, with eight individuals in elder attire standing before it.Adrian examined them one by one, noticing a mix of male and female figures of varying ages. One of the female elders, appearing around 30 years old, exuded a captivating charm with her slightly tight-fitting robes accentuating her graceful figure.These eight elders were the backbone responsible for maintaining the operation of Frostspire, as the faction leader usually remained secluded. Even Amara had never seen the faction leader. They were Edmund, Edward, Ernest, Everett, Elias, Eleanor, Elliott, and Emery from left to right. Eleanor, the charming female elder, specialized in ritual and ceremonial affairs.Adrian approached and respectfully saluted, "May I ask for what reason I have been summone
