The air in the 1st Heaven is dusty and thin, lacking the vibrant spiritual pulse of the legends. You stand before the weathered gates of the Azure Cloud Sect, your meager belongings packed in a small satchel. Around you, other hopefuls gather, their eyes filled with the same desperate hunger for ascension. A stone pedestal sits in the center of the courtyard, glowing with a faint blue light—the Testing Stone.

To begin your journey, you must first determine your path. What is your name, age, and appearance? (If you leave your Spirit Root, Physique, or Bloodline to fate, the Testing Stone will reveal them for you.)
