Ned adopted the stance to fight a brute beast. He opened his arms, letting them hung freely but focuses to find the enemy's weak spots.
Under his display, Ned found out that between the gaps of its shells were its weakest spots.
But Ned only prepared, seeing how it went into a rampage, killing the scattered magical beasts and the shocked candidates, he only went to stand on the side. Goblins and wargs ran past him, not daring to not even looked behind them, or even to Ned.
But as candidates, they remained in the middle. Although fearful, the remaining candidates wore their stances with trembling hands.
As for the worm-like beast, it chose to face whoever was nearest to him.
The candidates gathered together: the pair of warriors where Ned grabbed their orbs, from time to time they were throwing a deathly gaze at Ned. Three archers, and one mage (the rest of his team were wiped out after the beast devoured them).
