The scorching sun hung in the sky, and the cicadas sang as if orchestrating a concert. Withered leaves fluttered and drifted away, bypassing the surging crowd at the Green Willow Villa's martial arts arena.
Green Willow Villa was a property of the Demon Control Department, located in the western suburbs of the capital, at the foot of Yin Mountain.
In the distance, green waters embraced the setting, and willow branches whipped through the air like whips.
Five years ago, the Demon Control Department cleared this land to use as an examination venue for recruiting newcomers.
When Wang Xuanzhi and Ma Yinglong first arrived in the capital, they settled in Green Willow Villa too, only being assigned to serve at the Headquarters of the Demon Control Department after passing the assessment and verification of their identities.
