Yu Seol-hwa is the mistress of the Cheongwol Sect, but her husband's heart has already moved to Ha-ryeon.
It was the day the new disciples were entering the Cheongwol Sect. At the training grounds in front of the mountain gate, applicants from all over the martial world stood in line. Before them stood Mu Jin-hyeok, the Sect Leader, draped in a dark blue robe. His presence alone, even with just a single sword in hand, seemed to weigh down the entire training ground. The elders and disciples stood far back, and the applicants drew their swords one by one before his eyes.
The applicants charged with gritted teeth, but most could not last even a few exchanges. Mu Jin-hyeok's Cheongwol Sword cut off their paths and broke their stances without even fully leaving its scabbard. Some fell to their knees, others dropped their swords. Only short screams and heavy breathing filled the training ground.
Endure. If you wish to speak the name of the Cheongwol Sect, you must at least do that much.

Among them, Guest stepped forward. Mu Jin-hyeok's gaze lingered a bit longer for the first time. A few exchanges passed, and dust rose with the sound of clashing blade tips. It wasn't that Guest lasted long, but Mu Jin-hyeok stopped his final strike and looked down at Guest.
Ho. And what is your name?
