An hour later, inside the Inheritance Hall.
All those who were just notified had arrived here, creating a bustling scene with dozens of people in view.
Although what Zhang Xiaoman said was about the members inside the Holy Temple on the island, this sign was not a secret, so other people could also come to watch.
By now, everyone on the island had come over, even Mr. Ye and Su Fu had teleported here from Dragon Sleep Mountain.
All the Awakeners were wearing their Daring Clothes, which are a symbol of the identity of the Three Great Sanctuaries.
It’s just a pity that currently, there are only green and white colors available; black Trackers have yet to appear.
Besides that, the rest of the Star Alliance members were also uniformly outfitted.
They wore clothes that were white with a hint of grey, similar in design to the Daring Clothes.
But compared to the Daring Clothes, they lacked certain elements, such as the golden edging or the flowing ribbons at the back.
This was something Zhang Xiaoman had specifically asked Su Changqing to have custom-made.
Although made of fine material, they were just common objects, not Extraordinary Items like the Daring Clothes.
People stood together in clusters within the Inheritance Hall, and nearly every Awakener was surrounded by several people, all inquiring about the purpose of this gathering.
"Brother Su, what do you think the Star Lord called us here for? Is someone about to undergo Awakening?"
A newly joined craftsman asked.
By his side, Su Changqing, dressed in a white set of Daring Clothes, heard his question and replied,
"It’s not an Awakening. If it were an Awakening, we would have been notified in advance. The next round of Awakening candidates is in a week. Why do you ask, Wang Qing, are you wishing to join the Three Great Sanctuaries?"
The man chuckled and said, "Of course I’d like to join, but my physical condition isn’t up to standard yet. I’m hoping to exercise more in the future and have the chance to pass the assessment..."
"Well, it’s good that you have this aspiration. After completing your daily tasks, you can take part in the training organized by Lord Bear to improve your physical condition and combat experience, making it much easier to pass the trials."
Several newcomers were also here, and upon hearing their conversation, they couldn’t help but look forward to training diligently, eager to join the Three Great Sanctuaries as future Awakeners one day.
After all, the path to transcendence was laid out before them; how could anyone easily give up on it?
Luckily, Zhang Xiaoman had paved a way for them.
Within the Star Alliance, anyone who could pass the monthly trial could receive the infusion of the Enlightenment Array and become an Awakener.
Of course, passing the trial was not easy. Not only were there physical requirements, but there were also many other assessment components.
For instance, combat, theory, wilderness survival, practical experience, and so on—there was a whole system of thorough criteria.
Many new members would spend time after work or on rest days attending the organization’s free courses to enhance their knowledge and skills.
Even those who had already become Awakeners persisted with their training every day, never resting for a moment aside from their duties.
It could be said that now the Light Blue Clan was no longer composed of novices who were completely ignorant of battle. Thanks to the combination of Dark Energy and physical training, everyone had undergone a radical transformation.
Inside the hall, the buzz of conversation suddenly halted—it was Zhang Xiaoman’s arrival.
"Star Lord, almost everyone is here."
Su Changqing approached and said.
"All right, then let’s not delay and get started as soon as possible."
Zhang Xiaoman nodded and then activated his wristwatch to display a holographic projection in front of everyone.
This information he compiled was regarding the recent events at Sheep Village. It was brief but comprehensive.
The crowd formed a circle and quickly went through the content.
"Star Lord, are you saying there’s a Dimension Rift underneath Sheep Village that we need to close?"
Xiao Shun was the first to stand up and ask.
"Also, about that Corpse Demon Cocoon, I feel like we should prioritize destroying it. I’ve got a feeling that the creature inside might be quite formidable; should we raise the priority to kill it?"
Yang Yangyang also raised her own doubts.
Zhang Xiaoman first nodded and then shook his head, saying,
"This operation is meant for all of you to take advantage of this opportunity to engage in real combat with Alien Species, to train well."
"Although the Light Blue Clan is not primarily a combat-focused department, as Awakeners, it’s inevitable that we will encounter Alien Species in the future, so this experience is indispensable."
He paused, then continued,
"I will directly attack the internal caverns, and it’s inevitable that some creatures will escape. I need you to help me eliminate them, to cleanse these beings as much as possible."
At this point, everyone understood his intention—it was basically, the Boss would handle the main threat while they would help clear the lesser creatures.
"So, Star Lord, what exactly should we do? Do you have a plan?"
Su Changqing inquired.
Upon hearing this question, Zhang Xiaoman used his wristwatch to turn off the previous projection and open up another interface that resembled a map.
