"The welcoming ceremony is officially concluded," said the Chief Instructor. He rolled up the golden scroll with a sharp snap that echoed across the grand assembly hall. "From this exact moment onward, you are all formally recognized as official outer disciples of the Heavenly Sword Pavilion."
"However, do not let this meager title get to your bloated heads," said the Chief Instructor, his eyes narrowing as he scanned the smug faces of the noble heirs. "In this frontier branch, there is no such thing as an inner disciple. Every single one of you starts at the absolute bottom of the food chain. If you wish to climb higher and earn the ultimate right to be transferred to the central headquarters in the core world, you must fight, bleed, and thoroughly dominate the upcoming internal selection trials."
