A hush fell over the square when Grand Secretary Fang walked in.
Everyone held their breaths, waiting for Mr Fang to announce the chosen terrain.
Feng Wu watched as Grand Secretary Fang scanned the crowd with his eyes, and he gave Feng Wu a slight nod when he spotted her. He then scanned the crowd again.
Huo Yin poked Mu Yaoyao in the arm. "Princess Mu, Mr Fang was looking at you."
Mu Yaoyao was secretly elated, but she only said indifferently, "He's my grandpa. What's so surprising about that?"
Grand Secretary Fang had no idea of the silent war going on in the crowd. Without any preamble, he started to announce the rules of the physical tryout right away.
"Same as every year, the college will give each of you a headband, which you should tie around your forehead. The headbands are specially made by alchemists for the occasion, and they're only effective in the chosen terrain."
Soon, teachers came out to give each candidate a headband.
