"What a pity! I didn't make it through."
"I can't believe it! If I had been just one second faster, I wouldn't have been eliminated!"
"Deacon, could you give us another chance?"
"..."
The faces of those who were eliminated were filled with sorrow, clearly disheartened by the result. A disciple from the Jinglei Sect stepped forward and spoke to the crowd, "Those who have been eliminated, please make your own way down the mountain. You may not linger in this area." At these words, the eliminated contestants left the Jinglei Sect, dejected and bitterly unwilling to accept their fate.
"Your performances were all quite good. Successfully passing the first trial proves you have some strength," Lei Yiqun said calmly, addressing the fifty contestants present. "Of course, we can't rule out the possibility that some of you passed purely on luck. The next two trials, however, will have nothing to do with luck. They will be a contest of strength!"
"I hope you are all mentally prepared!"
