That was to say, an hour after the tryout started, 50 students had dropped out of the exam.
"The tryout this year is so difficult."
A candidate popped out of the portal after giving up on the tryout and he collapsed in the square.
He was covered in blood, had a big gash on his head, and was missing half his right ear. No one could bring themselves to look at him in that mangled state.
Everyone in the square had been watching the changes in ranking and they wanted to know everything about the tryout. They were thrilled to see a candidate come out.

A hush fell over the squareโฆ
"If I'm not mistaken, that's Zhao Tianze, right?"
