Chương 281: Final Exam

Far from the slapdash mountain town, the sun began to set behind a grand city.

At the center was a castle of stone. But all the hustle and bustle was just outside the castle grounds, behind metal gates bearing the emblem of a crown in front of a large W. 

Multiple buildings had visitors, with some needing to host outdoor ceremonies. 

However, the greatest attention was given to the chambers containing the fewest people. 

One grand hall, in particular, had less than twenty young adults sitting on armless chairs with red velvet cushions. A long balcony hung over each side wall, allowing noble and reputable parents to witness the exams taking place below. 

At the front, there were three steps leading to a small yet ornate stage with purple curtains pulled to the sides.
