Today, the morning was a bit special — it snowed. As the white motes fell from the sky and children looked up in wonder and joy, in the center of the village, where the white flag was usually raised every month, stood two people.
It was none other than Liyue and Han Li. The place was rather empty today and there was no hubbub or audience, just them both, waiting. Liyue's nerves were taught and she was in a bit of a panic, but Han Li's hands rested on her back, making her more confident.
"Ah! Really! Finally, it was damn time the snow came and you guys had to pick this exact day to take the test? Bloody…" Said a voice from the side, which suddenly grew silent.
Han Li looked sideways and frowned inwardly. The person overseeing the test was Li Ming.
Coming to the flag area after reporting it to an Evolved was the way of inner circle testing. He had already gone in the morning to meet the iron-masked Fang Li and was told to wait here for the test taker to come.
