Chapter 127 A Test of Arcane Powers

• An older man with a stern face evaluated the group of Yun Che as he stood before the arcane measuring stone. He glanced at everyone and said in a deep voice, "The first assessment is an arcane power test. Let me reiterate that the minimum age requirement for entry is fifteen years old at the 1st level of the arcana stage, sixteen years old at the 3rd level of the arcana stage, seventeen years old at the 5th level of the arcana stage, and eighteen years old at the 6th level of the arcana stage. Those under fifteen or over eighteen years old, and those whose arcane powers do not meet the minimum standard, should quit voluntarily and not hope for any errors in the arcane measuring stone."
• These words were repeated many times a year at the Tucame Arcane Demesne. But every year, many people failed the first round because they were unwilling to quit, believed in good luck, forgot to come, or hoped that the arcane measuring stone would malfunction. Therefore, although clear and strict standards were in place, more than half of the participants must be eliminated in the first round.
• After the older man finished speaking, no one quit the competition. He waved his hand and stood beside the arcane measuring stone, saying, "Now, the first round of assessment begins. When I call your name, come up and place your hand on the arcane measuring stone." With the list in his hand, the old man called out, "The first one, Han Chi!"
