The Newcomer Assessment at the headquarters of Zhenbao Tower is held once every two years. All new core members from five consecutive batches are considered part of the same cohort, and typically, once the number of new members reaches fifty, the headquarters conducts a unified review and evaluation.
During Shen Ping's assessment, only five candidates passed.
However, over the past decade or so, dozens of new core members have emerged successively, the most outstanding among them being Talisman Master Jing Yu, the direct disciple of Palace Master Shanhuo.
