Climbing Up

"Training and trial?" asked Angus back.

"Yes. If you try to climb higher through the stone slab, you will receive a unique pressure all over your body. This pressure couldn't be defended even with mana. Only the physical body could withstand the pressure." explained the woman.

"The higher you climb up, the stronger the pressure. Because of this unique feature, this place was used as a training ground for many people and trials in ancient times. Now, it only serves as an open training ground and a tourist destination for pilgrimage." added the woman.

'First the five entrance tests, now this place. It seems really Nirvas have too much tradition and are too conservative.' thought Angus.

Angus knows tradition and culture are essential as it is part of national identity, soul, and ideology. But it also makes the government too strict and inflexible. As society grows, there will be a lot of dissatisfaction from the new generation.
