Qing Na sighed in relief as she patted her ample chest. Only she knew how tense her nerves had been—a few moments ago, she was certain she was dead. Even after using the treasure she had obtained in the secret realm, she wasn't sure it would be enough. She had remained tense until her score was finally revealed.
She then waited to be transported to the next round, but another line of text appeared on the projection:
Everyone will be teleported to the next round at the same time after all participants have attempted the trial. Participant number 2, please step forward.
Reading this, she stepped away from the red stone slab, and everyone's eyes turned toward Mui Ling and her team.
Mui Ling approached the stone slab gracefully, full of confidence. Her teammates, however, followed nervously behind her. If anyone had looked closely, they would have noticed she was just as tense as they were—the sweat forming on her forehead and her rapidly beating heart betrayed her composure.
Huff
