Take the Ashley family for example. Each of the eight outer gate battalions would first conduct an internal test, and then choose some strong ones to participate in the array tournament. The number of people would not be limited, mainly based on the results of the test of each Battalion. The decision would be made by the battalion leader, and the family would not interfere too much.
Although there were quite a number of new members from the bone Battalion who wanted to participate in this competition, they still had to get past debar. According to past practice, debar would not allow some of the stronger people in the battalion to participate in the competition, as he was afraid that there would be casualties.
