A tension-ridden silence lingered in the trial grounds as hundreds of participants stood waiting.
The first two trials had ended, and they were brought back from the simulations, back to the large dome.
Then, a calm yet authoritative voice echoed.
"The results of the first two trials are now being displayed. All participants who have passed, prepare for immediate transfer to the third and final test."
"Serin Velinar – Passed"
"Rudo Faelin – Passed"
...
...
"Riven Weaverheart - Passed"
...
"Aria Glimair - Passed"
...
"Kai – Passed"
...
...
A wave of murmurs passed among the participants, as the results were announced
Those who passed were happy, while some grieving on failure, some nervous and excited about the next trial.
"Phew... we made it," said a girl, her blonde hair tied in loose braids swaying lightly with the gentle breeze, while her sharp Emerald eyes scanned through the crowd of participants.
"Yeah," a boy with green hair and yellow eyes replied.
