Chapter 25: Through Cold and Heat
One hour had passed.
Only six students managed to endure the full training time inside the Glacier Room: Edwin, Jin, Cecelia, Elysia, Thorian, and Eryndor.
The rest had given up, unable to handle the freezing cold.
Professor Sylvia stood at the entrance, holding a paper of name list. She calmly ticked off the names of those who passed—and those who didn’t.
"There will be no punishment for this training," she announced. "
Unlike the running laps, this test is about pushing your limits. Just stay as long as you can."
A few students sighed in relief after hearing that.
"At least we won’t get punished," someone whispered, rubbing their arms to chase away the lingering chill.
Even the top-ranking students had struggled in that room. Their bodies shivered, their breath fogged up the air, and their movements had slowed with the cold.
The Glacier Room wasn’t just cold—it felt like it wanted to freeze you to the bones.
Professor Sylvia gave a slow nod as she looked over the list.
