章 128: Marsh

Doku had tried to smooth things out, but the recruits in the two classes still required a bit more than an entire day to go through the test, and Khan had to oversee the situation for the whole time. The group could draw its conclusions only by lunchtime of the following day, and the two squad leaders on the scene inevitably showed disappointed expressions when they studied those results.

Both classes had less than twenty recruits each, but only eight of them had managed to tame Aduns. That number represented only a fifth of the group, so the squad leaders' disappointment felt somewhat justified, especially when they considered that every Niqols on Nitis could clear that same test at a much younger age.
