While all acolytes received instruction in the second stage of the [Dao Heart] skill and [Dao Steps], it was only these eight entrusted with the third and fourth stages of the [Dao Sword] technique, granting them access to deeper insights and more advanced techniques to refine their abilities.

With a wave of his hand, Emery invoked a spell that left the assembled acolytes in awe.
