After everyone entered the Colosseum, the gates closed, sealing the arena for the day. The apprentices, all scattered around the arena, formed groups or stood alone, each buzzing with anticipation. Aiden, Chloe, and Loyd stood together, their eyes scanning the vast space.
Suddenly, a young man appeared, hovering mid-air. His sudden presence caused a wave of murmurs to ripple through the crowd.
"He is flying!" one of the apprentices exclaimed in awe.
"So young, yet already a Spirit Lord!" another remarked, sparking a commotion among the gathered youths. The young man released a bit of his pressure, silencing the arena instantly.
"I will now announce the rules of this test," the young man began, his gaze sweeping over the assembly.
"First, the test will be conducted for seven days.
"Second, each day there will be only ten final selections.
"Third, previous day defeated participants can participate in the next day's selection.
