After the arrival of the Divine Sword Army in each county to take charge of the recruitment, they first arrested a group of Inner Sect Disciples and dependent power members from the Divine Sword Mansion, then began the initial selection by examining the bone structures based on the household registrars.
The initial selection continued for almost two months before it concluded.
By the time all the initial selectees arrived at the Divine Sword Sect, three months had already passed.
At this moment, the Assessment Hall of the Divine Sword Sect had gathered over thirty thousand initial selectees.
As for the first batch of selectees sent in, all who did not reach the Silver Bone level were directly eliminated, regardless of background, and sent back to their places of origin.
In the end, the first batch that could stay was initially more than ten thousand people, but less than three thousand remained.
