Chapter 49: First Test

Navigating the expanse of the pond emerged as a more formidable challenge than what Leo had initially anticipated.

Remarkably, only a mere fraction of approximately one in ten candidates, managed to traverse the full length of the pond utilizing their adept footwork, with the others failing spectacularly as they splashed face first into the water.

Even among those who succeeded, none received a score higher than 6-7 by the judges which baffled Leo who could not understand why there were marks being deducted.

In his view, everyone who crossed the pond managed to do it flawlessly as except creating the most minute ripples in the pond water for every step they skipped, they did nothing wrong.
