The moon set, and the sun rose.
Before long, it was the third day of the trial.
Less than ten hours remained until the end of the trial.
On the magical screens floating high above the mountaintop, of the once densely packed feeds, only twenty-odd remained.
As their numbers dwindled, the individual feeds enlarged, becoming much clearer.
Down below, the mountainside was still packed with people. The dense crowd craned their necks, staring intently at the screens in the sky, an uproar occasionally breaking out among them.
Just half an hour ago, something had happened that shocked and stunned everyone.
Sang Fan of the City Guard Army—one of the Wizard Apprentices many had favored, and who was widely considered one of the most likely to win a spot in the final contest—had been defeated. His opponent was a young woman from Violet Academy named Xiao Xi. Forced to use his Teleportation Ring to leave the maze, he was eliminated from the trial.
