The Battle over Group Leader

Zhang Ruochen was assigned into the first of the Half-Saint groups. There were 60 Saints in his group, each of whom were elite men with cultivation exceeding the Dawn State of the Heaven Realm.

Moreover, all of them came from well-connected families.

Some were the descendants of the powerful Saint families, some the young masters of Suzerains, and others the children of imperial court officials.

The first group, also known as the "absolute Elite Group", was composed of the 60 highest-ranked novices in the Sword Technique Department.

Duanmu Xingling was also assigned to the first group.

As for Huang Yanchen, she had ranked slightly lower after the three rounds of assessment. She was placed in the second group.

At the moment, everyone from the first group was gathered in an open martial-arts arena, standing neatly. They seemed youthful and energetic.

The men outnumbered the women; there were 38 men and 22 women.
