One by one, everyone stepped forth and placed their hands on the balls.
It could be said that they didn't know whether they passed or not since everyone more or less had the same reaction with the balls.
The only difference was that the balls would light up, showing different colors on them.
Some noticed various streaks of color when they touched the ball, while others only saw a single bold color glow up and engulf the balls.
Dorian inwardly nodded, taking into account everything he just saw.
If they had no talent for exorcism, the ball would light up, showing a solar creamy grayish color, as it was.
Those who were more likely to pass the test were those who managed to produce color on the balls.
Of course, one should also note that a pure white glow-up was different from a creamy grayish one.
Innate talents varied for all ranges.
That said, lighting up the balls in various colors and displaying their innate talents wouldn't necessarily guarantee passing the examination.
Luck, as well as divine blessings, were just a few out of the 10 hidden requirements that got tested.
A person had to pass all 10 to get into his academy.
Their soul force and every little thing concerning their beings would be accessed.
.
Dorian flicked his wrist, creating a door-like portal on the corner of the room.
"Those who finish, maybe leave."
This... This... This...
Everyone was since again shocked by the scene before them, wondering if it was really magic or not.
However, only those who placed their hands on the balls were utterly convinced.
Projections?
How can projections feel so real when touched?
You have to know that they had secretly tapped and kicked the pillars when they stepped forward.
If possible, they would've also liked to punch the crystal ball too.
All this left them with a single thought.
Real... It was all real!
.
Old Gia and Old Hou looked at themselves briefly, with a hint of understanding in their eyes.
"Why don't we go to my residence?... I'll explain it all over there." Old Gia recommended.
"Yes. We need to leave, just as the Grandmaster instructed."Old Hou added.
Right!
The gang all instructed a few of their men to stay back and pass their instructions to all those who left the test hall later on.
After all, they couldn't very well stay here back, waiting for the thousands of people to do the test.
Thus, they instructed a few to tell those who exit to head straight back to the respective main Ghu, Hou, or Gia times they were brought from.
And those who just flew in this morning from the military or other regions across the country had to stay in their respective accommodations, be it a hotel or private residences, not leaving the city.
The Grandmaster said before midnight, those who passed the test would know.
Thus, it was best for them to wait for their results.
The 3 prominent families also did so because they wanted to tally up how many people had passed in their clans.
Now, the wait was on.
.
Vrmmm!
Those who finished up went straight home.
And like so, 1 hour, 2 hours... 3 whole hours fly by in a blink of an eye.
Done.
Butler Sheng and the rest saw to the last group of people, escorting them out and making sure that everyone left the premises.
In the meantime, Dorian finally stepped from his seat, gazing at Pandrol before him.
"You did well. But things don't end here, understand?"
"Yes, master."
Pandrol thought.
He, the guardian of the space, had an assignment to accomplish before the Academy opened.
From what his master told him, he would be able to live and walk about freely on the academy grounds.
And when he wished it, he would be able to return to the secret space in the estate.
As Guardian of his space and a worker belonging to himself, Dorian had given Pandrol a lot of free reins!
